Quick Transmigration: I Actually Became a System Bug

The few injured bees and butterflies alone have already given the flower nursery owner a huge headache. Now that the number of bees and butterflies has suddenly increased and two more have been injured, the flower nursery may not just be temporarily closed, but could go bankrupt at any time!

However, when the staff member got off work that day, he didn't receive any notice from the boss to leave early. Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu didn't go into the flower bed either. Instead, they carefully observed and probed the outside of the flower bed while wearing bee protection suits before preparing to leave.

"Do you feel it?"

Shi Shaoyu nodded.

"On the third floor, I used my mental power to probe around, and the gaze came from the owner of this flower nursery. It seems someone really wants us to go inside the flower nursery!"

"Do you think the problem really lies with those bees?"

"It's hard to say, but bees are definitely one of the ways they can hurt us. As for the rest, think about Cao Bo and Zhang Liang."

Thinking about these two people, Ji Han was very puzzled.

"Why did Zhang Liang open the door for Cao Bo and the other person last night? Of course, I'm not saying he shouldn't have been kind, but as a veteran player with four experiences, he should understand that the rules in black and white cannot be broken at will, right?"

Shi Shaoyu couldn't figure this out either. He had specifically asked Wang Ming about last night's events before leaving home that morning, but unfortunately...

"I don't know. Wang Ming is definitely lying. I just don't know what percentage of what he said was a lie."

After leaving the flower garden, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu circled around the most eerie area in the town center before finally returning to the inn, ignoring a bunch of drooling eyes. The inn was very quiet; even the owner wasn't at the front desk.

Ji Han tugged at Shi Shaoyu's arm and silently mouthed "kitchen." Shi Shaoyu nodded to indicate that he understood. The two returned to room 204, locked the door, and then used their mental energy to probe the backyard together.

Although it was called a backyard, there were actually only two rooms in the back. One room was a kitchen, and the other was a storage room. Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu's spiritual probe came at a very bad time. In the kitchen of the backyard, the innkeeper was hugging one arm and munching away with gusto. Next to him were various scattered pieces of meat and a large pool of blood.

"vomit!"

"Ugh...ugh...I can't take it anymore, Ayu, you see for yourself."

Ji Han had seen dead people in the virtual worlds he had experienced before. In fact, he had killed far more people than the three he had killed yesterday when he went to the battlefield. However, this kind of perverted dismemberment and cannibalism in human form was something he had never seen before. This weird thing was better than just mutating first and then eating. At least that way he wouldn't think of cannibalism!

When Shi Shaoyu returned from the survey, he didn't look too good either. He first patted Ji Han's back reassuringly to help him catch his breath.

"Of the three people who died yesterday, An Qing, who was poisoned by bees, was not dismembered. Instead, she was wrapped in a bag and buried directly under the blood pool. Cao Bo and Zhang Liang, who were not poisoned by bees, were both dismembered and placed separately in the back storage room."

"That storage room was full of various pieces of dismembered corpses, and most importantly... the food made at the inn must have been made with this minced meat."

"Also, in that pool of blood, I saw many thick roots. Following these roots upwards, I discovered that they were the roots of the old locust tree at the entrance of the inn."

After hearing Shi Shaoyu's words, Ji Han had only one thought in his mind: he was incredibly grateful that he hadn't eaten the hotel's food or drunk a drop of water, and he didn't even want to sleep in a hotel bed!

"Ayu, how about we sleep in the space tonight?"

After Ji Han finished speaking, he changed his mind before Shi Shaoyu could reply.

"Forget it, let's sleep outside for now. The player panel in this strange world has storage slots where we can store things, so it's not unusual for us to take things out of the space. But if we go into the space, it could cause big trouble if those alien creatures find out."

Ji Han and the other person reluctantly accepted the fact that they could only sleep outside the space. Then, the two of them discussed the issue of bee venom and energy levels.

This morning, Ji Han and his group's long detour successfully added over 3,000 energy points to their account. Combined with the remaining points from yesterday, these energy points, when converted into Ghost Coins, would be enough for them to stay for 5 days. Therefore, the two, who were not short of money, decided to simply lay low from now on.

However, not everyone is as wealthy as Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu. Even if they have enough money, they still try to save as much as possible and earn as much as possible, since the strange currency of the strange world is notoriously difficult to obtain.

So, when Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu woke up in the afternoon, they saw several "mummies" wrapped up tightly standing under the locust tree, picking the locust blossoms from the tree bit by bit.

And the locust tree by the entrance, perhaps because it absorbed new blood and "new nutrients," had its branches covered with small flowers again today, even though Cao Bo had picked them yesterday.

Ji Han looked at the small white flowers with yellowish tinges, as if he could see the surging red beneath their veins, as if at this moment humans were merely food, filled with helplessness and sorrow.

"Ayu, let's tell them about the discovery in the backyard during our meeting tonight."

Suddenly, Ji Han realized that the bald, burly man who organized the meeting yesterday was no longer there. After a pause, he added,

"If anyone calls a meeting tonight."

Shi Shaoyu nodded, understanding Ji Han's meaning. The two took out some things to replenish their energy, and then left the hotel, heading in another direction they had never been before.

Along the way, they greeted the strange creatures they encountered, and those creatures, just like before, stared at them with covetous eyes, as if they could rush up and swallow them whole at any moment, but they hesitated because of something and did not go forward. Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu always wandered around not only for energy points, but also to find out the reason behind it.

The two of them went around in circles again and finally returned to the hotel before dark. Only then did they realize that the remaining players were all sitting in the hotel lobby waiting for them, afraid that something else might happen to them.

So, the pre-sleep meeting that night was simply arranged in Ji Han's room 204.

"Alright, everyone, you can share your new discoveries from today. I'll go first. Ah Han and I went to the flower nursery this morning..."

Shi Shaoyu first gave a detailed account of the discoveries made in the flowerbed and the backyard of the inn.

"Ugh!" "Ugh!" "Ugh!"

The sounds of vomiting rose and fell, instantly reminding them that the sink in Ji Han's room was definitely not enough. Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu calmly sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for everyone to finish vomiting before continuing their story.

"Therefore, starting today, everyone must not easily consume the food in this instance."

Like Ji Han and the others, Cai Wei hadn't eaten or drunk anything from the hotel. Seeing that most of the people around her looked nauseous and about to vomit, she decided to step forward and tell them what she had discovered.

“Residents in the town say that there have been frequent incidents of bee stings recently, and all available methods have been used, but the results are not good and some have even become more serious. I have also verified this news with the town hospital, and it is true, which has caused a shortage of wards in the town hospital.”

Du Xiuxiu then spoke up as well.

"Chang Shuo, Chen Kuo, and I split up and circled the town. The town wasn't very big, and it was surrounded by all kinds of flowerbeds. Beyond that, it was like touching a thick gray fog, which is the legendary mission barrier. We can't get out of this barrier until we complete the mission."

"As for the inside of the town, almost every household plants one or two kinds of flowering plants in front of their door. We asked about the strange reasons, but they all said that they just liked to grow flowers, which is very intriguing."

After Du Xiuxiu finished speaking, only Wang Ming was left.

"I haven't left the house all day, and I haven't made any special discoveries."

Ji Han, however, felt that something was amiss.

"Brother Wang, is there something wrong with your arm?"

Wang Ming lost his left hand. When Ji Han mentioned his arm, he reflexively thought Ji Han was mocking him and was about to curse when he realized that everyone was looking at his right arm. He raised his arm and saw that a red line had appeared on his right arm at some point, and the red color under the line was very intense.

"What...what's going on? I definitely didn't have this red line on my arm before. What does this red line mean? Is it poisoning or has something gotten inside? Do any of you have it? Am I the only one with this?"

And you know what? When Wang Ming asked, it turned out that apart from Cai Wei, Ji Han, and Shi Shaoyu, the other four people all had red lines on their arms. It's just that Wang Ming's red line was the darkest, while Du Xiuxiu and the other two had lighter red lines.

The four of them checked their schedules and then simultaneously uttered the same sentence.

"The hotel food!"

The reason has been found, but they still don't know what the red line represents, what its length represents, or what its shade represents.

That evening, the group discussed it at length, but ultimately couldn't come to any conclusions. They could only hope to find relevant and useful information the next day.

The second night was uneventful. On the morning of the third day, Wang Ming and his companions discovered that the red lines on their wrists had lengthened, especially Wang Ming's, which had extended beyond his elbow.

"Do you think these red lines on our arms are death lines? Will we die the moment they reach their peak?"

After Wang Ming finished speaking, the living room fell silent. No one answered, yet it was as if everyone had answered. After all, this was a strange world, and what good things could come from a strange world?

Wang Ming was momentarily devastated. He had already lost his left hand here, and he didn't want to die, at least not in this eerie world. He would rather be hit by a car and die immediately upon returning to the real world than be dismembered in this eerie world.

Therefore, on the third day, in order to find a way to remove the red line, Ji Han and the others left the hotel early and came to the town center to search for clues in different directions.

There were quite a few strange things in the town center. After Ji Han and his group got off the strange bus, Shi Shaoyu held his hand tightly the whole time. When they got off the bus, Ji Han also noticed that the bus stop sign was marked as an intercity bus, which meant that if they succeeded in their mission, they could take the strange bus directly to the next city.

Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu were assigned to find information in the town's library that day. The town's library was not very big, with only two floors, but the books only filled one floor. The rest were some historical information about the town, which was what Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu focused on this time.

However, the two of them searched from morning till night, but apart from gaining a better understanding of the town's history, they found no other useful information. When they returned to the hotel exhausted in the evening, everyone else had also come up empty-handed. Even the doctor at the town hospital, upon seeing the red line, not only refused to treat him but also seemed quite excited.

If news can excite even something bizarre, it's obviously not good news.

"Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump!"

On the morning of the fourth day, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu were awakened by noises coming from the window. When they drew back the curtains, good heavens! Their building had somehow become surrounded by strange bees and butterflies, which were now frantically rushing towards the window. At this rate, the glass would shatter soon, and they would be riddled with needle pricks!

Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu immediately changed into their bee suits and then quickly knocked on the doors of the others to tell them about the emergency. However, they were too late. The window of Wang Ming's room had been broken at some point. By the time Ji Han and the others knocked on the door, Wang Ming inside was riddled with holes and his body was swollen.

The remaining six people, including Ji Han, rushed upstairs after gathering. It wasn't that they wanted to go upstairs, but there was no safe place downstairs or on the second floor. Faced with the relentless pursuit of the bees, they had no choice but to climb up.

If the third floor really is as they guessed, with a monster imprisoned inside, Ji Han and his group can then guide that monster to fight against the swarm of bees behind it. In the end, regardless of who wins or loses, Ji Han and his group will have a chance to catch their breath.

However, to Ji Han's and his companions' disappointment, there were no powerful monsters on the third floor. They would have to deal with the swarm of bees themselves. Oh, right, there was also a small, dark room on the third floor, made of solid, pitch-black material. Ji Han liked the room the moment he entered.

With no windows on any side, they no longer had to worry about bees swarming in through the windows or doors. Moreover, the small dark room was clearly made of special materials, making it perfect for hiding from the bees chasing them from outside.
