Don't pretend, everyone knows you're the villain!

When I passed by 303, I found that the traces I left yesterday had been erased.

In this inn, it seems that neither monsters nor players can leave anything behind or take anything with them in the end.

Room 304 is no different from the other rooms.

Everyone sat in a circle around the bed, and the atmosphere was quite awkward.

Feng Tianlan suggested in a low voice, "Why don't we take turns sleeping? That way we'll have the energy to deal with those things at night."

"not sleepy."

Gu Junbo barely slept last night; Qi Rang's death kept him excessively awake. He felt no drowsiness whatsoever, his brain relentlessly searching for the key to breaking the deadlock before using his talent.

"I'm feeling great too." Zhang Rong slept soundly with Feng Tianlan last night and got plenty of sleep.

Lu Tiannan didn't respond, but looked at Shen Yi.

He seemed to be ready to catch up on sleep if the other person wanted to. Clearly, Xi Mingzhu noticed his gaze, and her brow twitched.

It's impossible to continue sleeping now, but we can talk about serious matters.

Xi Mingzhu had a question on his mind that he had wanted to ask ever since he came downstairs, but he had kept putting it off until now.

"Aren't there four of you?"

After these words were spoken, the room fell into a deathly silence, and no one responded.

Even Lu Tiannan frowned and remained silent.

Given this person's temperament, he would never miss an opportunity to join in the fun.

What happened next last night?

It was an event that everyone else knew about, but he missed because he was too tired.

0561 hesitated for a moment but still told the truth, "Host, another player was bitten to death by a rat last night."

0561 restrained himself and didn't directly mention that he bit off the head.

Xi Mingzhu knew that if someone was absent from such a place, it was almost certainly a bad omen, but he still wanted to know why.

It was because of rats, which is both reasonable and unexpected.

He thought that by being with a male lead like Gu Junbai, his teammates' safety would be guaranteed, but it seems that's not the case.

Gu Junbo didn't want to talk much about reopening old wounds; his talent hadn't been used yet, and there was still a chance to change the situation.

"There has been a temporary setback, so I am taking a break."

These words left those who knew the truth speechless. How could death not be considered a rest for them?

No one can be sure they won't be forced to take a break in some future instance.

It's a game where you can't see the future.

Lu Tiannan crossed his legs, took out his phone, and casually said, "Let's create a group chat? We've collaborated once, let's leave some mementos."

Feng Tianlan immediately agreed to the idea of ​​cooperation, saying, "Sure."

Gu Junbo and Zhang Rong nodded in agreement.

Lu Tiannan sent Gu Junbai a message: "Anyway, we've added each other privately, so I'll create a group and add you. We can each add our own people."

Gu Junbo replied with a single word – “Mm.”

Although Lu Tiannan's reason for creating the group was a very clever rhetoric.

In fact, Lu Tiannan had already left and deleted every group chat that had been wiped out.

Lu Tiannan firmly believed that the dead had no reason to be remembered and missed by the living, without exception.

From the day they were chosen by the game, they were destined to be among the unfortunate exiles and abandoned. Since they were so unfortunate, being forgotten would eventually happen one day.

Death is the end for the dead, and the beginning of being forgotten, but ultimately it is just an insignificant story point for the living who know the dead.

Thinking of this, Lu Tiannan turned to look at Shen Yi, his eyes filled with a complex and meaningful expression.

Being remembered by someone like that, even if you forget them one day... that feels pretty good.

Noticing the gaze, Xi Mingzhu casually took out her phone and handed it to Lu Tiannan, naturally asking him to help her operate it.

Others, unaware of the full picture of their relationship, simply pretended it didn't exist and didn't see it.

No one knows whether the two were wearing matching outfits or just a coincidence that they were dressed in black and white.

Lu Tiannan looked at the nickname he had set and smiled with pleasure. He lazily lowered his voice and said, "Brother, remember in the future that you can't let anyone else touch your devices unless they are close to you."

Xi Mingzhu didn't understand the significance of this.

According to 0561, this thing is merely a means of communication. Compared to abilities in his original world, such as telepathy, it has nothing to do with intimacy.

With a slight twitch of his brow, he opened his palm and coldly said to Lu Tiannan, "Give it back to me."

Lu Tiannan handed the phone back and blinked.

I belatedly let out a soft "ah," feeling both surprised and confused.

He then chuckled lightly and asked for advice in an ambiguous tone.

"Am I not close enough with my brother? Even physical intimacy doesn't count. What would count as close? Brother, why don't you teach me? I'll definitely learn carefully."

Feng Tianlan felt he shouldn't be in the room; this wasn't content he could listen to for free. He felt so awkward he wanted to disappear into the ground.

Gu Junbo remained expressionless, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Zhang Rong turned his face to the side, coughed twice because his throat felt uncomfortable, and cleared his throat.

Shen Yi slowly rose and sat down by the windowsill. Her gaze fell on the misty buildings outside the window, and she softly uttered two words: "Open your heart."

Lu Tiannan also stood up and moved closer to the window.

"Does my brother doubt my sincerity? Is there something I haven't done well enough?"

Innocent and docile, like a domesticated dog.

However, none of the people in the room believed that this was Lu Tiannan's true identity.

Xi Mingzhu turned around and looked at Lu Tiannan, who was a fist's distance away from her, and said in a cold and distant voice, "Lu Tiannan, lie to yourself before you lie to me."

Lu Tiannan was taken aback, then a smile bloomed on his lips.

His eyes were full of interest and a desire to conquer.

To seize territory and plunder, you need to convince someone of your deception. It's a challenging yet fascinating endeavor.

“This is my true feeling, why don’t you believe me, brother?” Lu Tiannan suddenly moved closer and whispered in Shen Yi’s ear.

Xi Mingzhu raised his hand and cruelly pushed him away without any hesitation.

Lu Tiannan sighed, feeling hurt, and silently composed himself, putting some distance between himself and the other person.

"I was too impatient."

Feng Tianlan frantically sent messages to Zhang Rong on his phone, complaining, "No way! Does he think we're dead? Is this the place to flirt?! Don't he understand what cooperation is?! It's not just the two of them, it's the five of us!"

Zhang Rong caught a glimpse of Gu Junbai out of the corner of her eye. Good, she wasn't affected in the slightest.

It seems that only Feng Tianlan reacted strongly.

Zhang Rong then replied to Feng Tianlan with an emoji of a cat patting his head.

Feng Tianlan's pupils dilated in shock. Was this really his tough teammate?! A cat... and he's even patting my head?!

It's not that he sees everyone as gay, it's just that he was deeply influenced by Lu Tiannan in just one morning.

Feng Tianlan, his hands trembling, sent a question mark to Zhang Rong, who replied with another question mark.

"Brother Zhang, this emoji..."

"It was posted by a girl in the dungeon group last time. I thought it was pretty good, so I used it," Zhang Rong explained, though he didn't understand.

Upon learning that he had been overthinking things, Feng Tianlan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued his private conversation with Zhang Rong: "So that's how it is, easy to steal, easy to steal!"

At 12:30, a large pile of food appeared on the table.

As expected of a dungeon, at least it's intelligent enough.

If they were only given a meal for two, it would be a huge challenge for the five of them to cooperate sincerely. Fortunately, the instance wasn't that inhumane.
