"call--"

Lin Yu woke up from his sleep and sat up on the bed.

Forbolo was still snoring in his sleeping bag on the ground, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth, and he was sleeping soundly.

Lin Yu walked to the bed and kicked Forboluo.

"Time to wake up."

Forboluo woke up from his sleep and rolled on the ground twice in panic.

"What? Who attacked me? Wow!"

He yelled, then hurriedly untied his sleeping bag and jumped out in panic.

Lin Yu looked at Forboluo and sighed helplessly.

"Forbolo, it's me."

Seeing that it was Lin Yu, Forbolo calmed down.

"Oh, it's you, May."

He exhaled and looked at the sky outside.

At this moment, it was just getting light outside, and Forbolo frowned.

"How long have we slept?"

Lin Yu glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside: "About three hours. It was less than four in the morning when I went to bed. Now it's almost seven in the morning."

As Lin Yu spoke, Forboluo frowned.

"That's not right. I don't feel any pain in my head."

"When I don't sleep for eight hours, my head hurts!"

As Forboluo spoke, Lin Yu suddenly realized something.

"Something's really wrong!"

he whispered.

Now, Lin Yu found that he had lost three abilities again!

The abilities of the "thug", "chef" and "corporate slave" have disappeared!

This means...

Or, three people suddenly realized their lies last night.

Either...

They are dead.

Either way, something is wrong.

Thinking of this, Lin Yu grabbed the torch.

"Hey, Forbolo...we have to hurry."

"Go check some things!"

Lin Yu said this and walked out the door without looking back.

Forboluo, who was not yet fully awake, was stunned for a moment, then hurried out the door.

"Wait for me, May!"

As he spoke, he followed Lin Yu's pace.

"Where are you going? What are you trying to confirm?"

Lin Yu did not answer, but came to one of the areas based on his memory.

That was the area where the player who believed he was the "Chef" was located.

Lin Yu looked around and found him in one of the strongholds.

The gate of the stronghold was open, the stove inside was extinguished, and wind and snow were pouring in.

The player was a middle-aged man with a slightly balding head.

He was curled up by the fire and had been dead for a long time.

Forboluo walked forward quickly, reached out and pressed the skin of the corpse, frowning.

"Excluding the influence of temperature, the time of death... is about 12 hours ago."

"There are no obvious signs of trauma or poisoning. He may have died of freezing or unnatural causes."

"But judging from his expression—I kind of suspect he was scared to death."

Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Forboluo accurately report the time of death.

I originally thought I would have to look at a few more corpses, but now it seems... that's not necessary.

"The cause of death should be 'Chat'. This thing's method of killing should be 'killing in a dream'... probably scaring people to death."

"Also, based on this person's death and the 'information I already know', I can determine one thing."

Lin Yu said this and looked at Forboluo.

Forboluo also looked at Lin Yu: "What do you want to express?"

"Forbolo, what day do you think it is now?"

"The third day?"

"No, it's the fifth day now," Lin Yu said seriously, "Every time we sleep... we sleep for more than 24 hours."

"This is the killing method of the monster called 'Chat' that lives here... I found the body of the NPC we encountered at the beginning, and the death was almost identical to this."

As Lin Yu spoke, Forboluo's expression changed slightly.

"There's actually such a thing? Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

"I didn't fully trust you before."

Lin Yu said calmly.

"Then everything makes sense. No wonder my head doesn't hurt." Forbolo's expression turned grim, but it only lasted for a moment before he started laughing. "Haha, that's true. It's quite interesting!"

Forboluo grinned, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "It turns out this dungeon isn't just interesting in the hidden 'truth' and 'puzzles'; it's also quite difficult."

"Now I'm going to play seriously."

Forbolo pulled off the woolen hat on his head and stuffed it into his arms, revealing his flowing lead-gray short hair.

He carefully tidied his hair, then took out a black round-top gentleman's hat from his arms.

Lin Yu watched Forboluo's operation and became curious.

"Is this hat of yours some kind of powerful item? Something that can protect you from mental attacks, or stop you from sleeping so much?"

"No, this is just for decoration," Forboluo said, his ears and nose reddened by the cold. "But this represents my determination—it means I'm going to devote 70% of my strength to this dungeon!"

Forboluo said seriously, Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, then said.

"Can't you just use your full strength to play?"

Forbolo shook his head: "I don't think... yet."

"Give me 100%!"

As Lin Yu was speaking, Forboluo was about to argue, but then...

Looking at Lin Yu's sharp eyes in the wind and snow, Forbolo shrank his neck and said.

"Okay, okay, I'll just use 100% of my strength!"

He muttered, tucking his black bowler hat in for a braided straw hat.

"Full force mode, activate!"

Lin Yu looked at Forboluo changing his hat, feeling somewhat helpless.

"What's this quirk of yours?"

"So the beanie means you're in 'sleep mode,' and the heavy earmuffs mean you're in 'energy saving mode?'"

Forbolo was horrified.

"How did you tell?"

As he spoke, Lin Yu sighed.

"It couldn't be more obvious!"

Forboluo pondered and looked at Lin Yu.

"Well, May, as expected of a doctor, your mind is sharp and meticulous... You must be good at surgery, right?"

"I don't know anything about hair surgery. I'm just a medical student. I haven't even done residency yet."

Lin Yu said helplessly.

He didn't dare to agree to it casually... What if it got exposed later?

Saying that you are a medical student is the best option.

After all, the "April" I met before was also a medical student who got the profession of "doctor".

Forbolo nodded slightly.

"I see……"

"So, where should we go next? You should have a goal in mind, right?"

"After all... you seem to be able to get some revelations in your dreams."

"Did one of your tools do this?"

Forbolo asked.

Lin Yu looked at the "detective" in surprise.

He nodded and said, "Yes, I can get hints in my dreams."

"The owner of the notebook we found earlier, 'Vill Valetti', has been appearing in my dreams these past few days!"
