Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 493 No Mistake

hotel restaurant.

Xu Han and his companion, who had finally made it to dawn behind the curtains, helped each other to their feet. They felt their calves were sore and numb, and their veins were throbbing with pain. They gasped for breath with every step they took.

"Come on, rely on..."

Xu Han hissed, "I feel like I can't feel my legs anymore."

"..." He Lingling frowned and dragged her cramped leg out, "A grown man shouldn't be so weak."

"???"

"A grown man can cry out in pain too!"

Xu Han cried out in distress, "Cramps really hurt!"

"Who doesn't get cramps? Don't I get cramps too?"

He Lingling pinched his arm in annoyance, then glared at the Samoyed that was running out of the curtains.

"Also, keep an eye on your dog; it's started running around again."

"Hey! Stop running! Why are you running?!"

Xu Han broke down and screamed, dragging his limping leg as he threw open the curtains and chased after them.

He Lingling, forced to chase after them, had a distorted expression: "..."

At the restaurant entrance, the players, who had been tormented by the waitresses all night, collapsed on the ground, exhausted. Each of them was covered in thick sweat and smelled strongly of meat.

When the five players who had barely survived saw a Samoyed suddenly run out from behind the curtains, their pupils constricted, and they were so frightened that they scrambled backward on all fours.

They thought it was another new "game"—

Then they saw two people limping out behind the Samoyed.

Hmm... he looks kind of familiar.

He Lingling and Xu Han.

Especially He Lingling.

The five players, who were trying to move backward using both hands and feet, froze in place, staring at He Lingling and Xu Han in disbelief.

Last night... they were hiding behind the curtains the whole time?!

"Hehe, sorry, sorry."

Xu Han felt a little embarrassed by the stares. "That's my dog, my dog, it's absolutely nothing strange..."

Despite the excruciating pain in her calf, He Lingling's face remained contorted: "...Stop talking nonsense!"

He Lingling said irritably, "If you don't hurry up and chase after your dog, it'll disappear without a trace!"

"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! How can it run so fast?!"

"..."

The five players watched in astonishment as He Lingling and Xu Han hurriedly chased after the dog and drove away.

“…Just now,” someone said absentmindedly, staring blankly at the now empty restaurant entrance.

Did something run past?

"..."

"Have!"

Another player gritted his teeth and said, "They hid behind the curtains all night!"

For an entire night! He Lingling and the others hid behind the curtains and watched the five of them escape all night long, without making a single sound!

"That's outrageous! Why aren't they coming out? We're all players, why are we cowering in the corner and not making a sound?"

This is the male player who tricked the Aries girl into going to her death.

"...Yes, that behavior is indeed not good..."

This is the male player who tried to talk to the scalper.

"That's right, we're all players, why can't we face this together..."

"..."

The only female player among the four licked her dry, bleeding lips, then lowered her head and coughed while supporting herself on the ground.

"That's normal..."

The female player asked, "Why did they run out to their deaths?"

The other four players, still filled with righteous indignation, fell silent abruptly, their faces turning deathly pale.

"Isn't it?"

The female player leaned against the wall and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Looking at the blood on her fingers and body, she gave a mocking laugh.

"Stop saying things you don't even believe yourself. If any one of you had been hiding behind the curtains last night, would you have come out?"

One of the four tried to argue, "Of course I would—"

"Stop lying!"

The female player suddenly erupted in anger and shouted, "Especially you!"

"If you hadn't lied to that Aries last night, we wouldn't have had to race so hard against those anthropomorphic animals! It could have been a win-win situation! It's all because of you, you selfish, despicable, shameless idiot!"

"It's all because of you, you idiot..." The female player closed her eyes, cold sweat from the pain sliding down her cheeks and dripping onto her filthy clothes.

"It's because of you, you idiot, that things got worse—"

boom!

"Stop fucking dreaming!"

The male player who had deceived the Aries girl suddenly slammed his hands into the ground, his bloodshot eyes almost bulging out of their sockets.

He glared fiercely at the female player not far away, "You think you're so kind and honest! Didn't you also leave that animal behind and run to the finish line last night?"

"You're so high and mighty! You're not stupid, you're not selfish or despicable! Then why didn't you give way to that animal last night? Huh? Say something!"

The female player was so angry she was almost spitting blood. "Idiot! Things weren't that bad at first last night—"

"Shut the fuck up!"

The male player interrupted her again, "I don't care what you think of me, I survived! Don't you understand?! I survived, that's all that matters! As long as I survive and can finish the game, that's all that matters!"

"..."

"what."

The female player laughed angrily, "Fine, you survived. Okay, you survived. You've survived perfectly well..."

She was so angry that her heart was pounding. Her face was flushed, and she stood up, leaning against the wall. She nodded to the other three players who remained silent and unresponsive.

"Okay, you guys continue forming teams, I won't stay here and get in the way."

After saying that, the female player walked out of the restaurant by herself, limping.

Inside the restaurant, the other three players who hadn't spoken exchanged glances and hesitantly opened their mouths.

"Well, I'm really tired after running all night, so I'll go back and rest first."

"Me too, I need to go back and rest too..."

"Let's go together, we're all on the same floor anyway."

"..."

After the three players left the restaurant, the male player with red eyes slowly stood up, leaning against the wall. He looked at the huge vases on both sides of the restaurant entrance and thought of the Aries girl who had been skewered and roasted on the grill last night.

For some unknown reason, the male player suddenly experienced a stomach spasm, gagged, and leaned against the wall to vomit all over the floor.

As he vomited, the male player seemed to see again the Aries girl's shocked black eyes.

Aries girls... are really like real humans.

"What~"

"Meow~ Meow~"

The Aries girl's voice kept echoing in his ears, and the strong aroma of meat seemed to envelop the male player again. He gagged again, vomiting until he felt dizzy and his eyes were swollen, and his stomach acid was coming out.

When the male player was vomiting until he felt completely weak, he felt a throbbing pain in his eyes. He subconsciously touched the pocket containing his "pet"—

The little kitten in his pocket poked its head out and licked his fingers, letting out a soft meow.
