It was supposed to be a love simulation, so why are they also players?

With her right leg firmly chained, the brown-haired girl was fixed in a corner of the secret room, with limited mobility.

Although a little scared, Nagasaki Motoyo quickly calmed down after realizing it was just a simulation.

and.

She noticed that in another corner, there was another unfortunate soul chained up. In the dim light, Nagasaki Motoyo saw the man's delicate and somewhat cute face.

Xiao Mu?

Is it her friend, Wakaba Mutsu?

That long, light green-haired girl who rarely spoke and whose face never showed any emotion, was a kind-hearted person who loved growing cucumbers.

"Xiao Mu? Is that you?"

As she asked, she eagerly hoped for a response, but upon closer observation, Nagasaki Motoyo noticed something different.

They don't have the same vibe, and their hair colors are different too.

Nagasaki Motoyo thought of someone.

In the first simulation, the private detective, Xia Mu, was suspected to be a super-perverted stalker, but he was a man of his word.

In that simulation, there was a passage that described Xia Mu and Ruoye Mu as having some resemblance.

Could it be a child from the Ruoye family who was lost? Is it Xiaomu's older brother?

Nagasaki Motoyo was caught up in a little brainstorming session.

Your circle is really chaotic.

Afterwards, she and Xia Mu gave each other a brief self-introduction.

I got to know him again.

This once again confirmed Nagasaki Motoyo's conjecture.

However, Xia Mu probably hasn't fallen for her yet, as her reaction is quite indifferent.

That's actually a good thing.

But why did they come here?

"Good evening, you two. Welcome to my death game."

Not far away, a TV program suddenly turned on, and on the screen was a guy wearing a grotesque mask, whose voice was a bit sinister.

"Who exactly are you?"

Nagasaki Suyo asked.

But what was shown on television was just a video recording.

This person is an imitator of Jigsaw, the creator of the locked-room death game. Jigsaw used the death game to "help" those who did not cherish life, meaning that even in the face of near-death experiences, there was still a glimmer of hope.

[And this one is a twisted imitator, a clumsy imitation of "Jigsaw." So, Miss Nagasaki Motoyo, you must try your best to escape from here with Natsume.]

The simulator serves as a reminder to Motoyo Nagasaki at this moment.

Give them plenty of intelligence!

"Man has seven deadly sins: pride, sloth, envy, wrath, greed, lust, and gluttony, and you are among them!"

As if reciting lines, the masked man continued his opening remarks.

"First and foremost, Nagasaki Motoyo has committed the sin of arrogance! She is far too arrogant, her mind is filled with nothing but her own princess status, and she has no understanding of the hardships of ordinary people! She deserves to be punished!"

"Secondly, there is Toyokawa, who committed the sin of laziness... He has hands and feet, yet he cannot support himself, indulging in self-destruction every day, and not cherishing what he has and his family. He deserves to be punished!"

"..."

"Seventh, there's Hanabatake Yoshiko, who committed the sin of gluttony! She once flaunted a truckload of bananas while extremely thirsty, she deserves to be punished!"

"Finally! Because I have an obsessive-compulsive disorder about making sure the numbers are even, I randomly picked the lucky winner, Xia Mu!"

It's like the King of Hell calling out names, with the masked figures in the TV series going by one by one.

Despite being one of the Seven Deadly Sins, eight people were captured and forced to participate in a death game.

Get sick!

Xia Mu was the most wronged one.

There are eight men, and seven of them are sinners, but he is not one of them.

Although the boy with the divine metal element didn't seem flustered at all.

Inside this bathroom-like secret room, only she and Xia Mu were present.

The others are probably playing the game in another secret room.

That man named Toyokawa...

Is it related to Xiao Xiang?

"Damn it! I'm the embodiment of lust!"

Xia Mu pouted unhappily, clearly displeased with the masked man's assessment.

He'll beat that elusive guy to a pulp sooner or later!

Is this something to complain about?

Nagasaki Motoyo didn't understand Xia Mu's thought process, nor did she need to try to understand him.

The most urgent task is to get out of this wretched place as soon as possible and find out the truth about why Toyokawa Shoko left CRYCHIC.

"You must be getting impatient by now. Don't be afraid. Even in the most desperate situations, there is still a glimmer of hope. The clues to survival are right beside you. Please find your means of escape. Friendly reminder: you only have half an hour to escape from this room."

sizzle-

The television sound abruptly stopped, and the picture disappeared.

"Let's look for it first, Xia Mu."

"Good."

As she spoke, she immediately got to work.

Even with her movements restricted by chains, she could still move within a certain range.

Meanwhile, Nagasaki Motoyo discovered the tool that would allow her to escape—a saw.

Instantly, a chill swept over me.

She wasn't stupid; she could naturally guess the purpose of the saw.

It was used to saw off the leg that was chained up, allowing it to escape its restraints.

Motoyo Nagasaki couldn't bring herself to do it.

Biting her lip, she turned her gaze toward Xia Mu's side.

Within the limits of his mobility, the boy clumsily used his other, unlocked thigh to hook back a long object.

The thing was very far away, beyond the maximum distance, yet Xia Mu still managed to get it.

Sharp serrations, a comfortable rubber handle, and a switch handle...

That's clearly a chainsaw!

If a saw is like a long-term pain, then a chainsaw is like a short-term pain followed by intermittent pain...

"Xia Mu, let's not rush, okay? Maybe there are other solutions—"

Before he could finish the last word, Nagasaki Motoyo saw Natsume turn on the chainsaw and easily saw through the chains on his leg.

"Ok?"

Xia Mu, transformed into the Chainsaw Man, looked up and made a sound of confusion.

I almost blurted out, "Hi, wife!"

"It's okay... Could you help me saw through the chain?"

Chapter 14 Don’t Look Over There, Look at Me

"It would be my pleasure to be of service to you, Miss Nagasaki Suyo."

With Xia Mu's help, the girl with brown hair and blue eyes was also freed from the chains.

There are still traces of being strangled on my legs, which is a bit painful, but it doesn't affect my walking.

The sense of reality in the simulator is no different from reality.

[I've blocked out the pain for you. Please respect my expertise as a bond simulator, Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo.]

The simulator flashed by.

"Thank you, Xia Mu. Just call me Nagasaki Suyo. No need to add the last two words."

In most cases, this guy named Xia Mu is surprisingly reliable.

Nagasaki Suyo once again gives a brief definition of a boy.

A stranger you can trust.

Of course, she still had no interest in Xia Mu.

Yes, she has no interests at all, and she only cares about her own affairs.

[Your name is Nagasaki Suyo. Right now, the only person you can rely on is Xia Mu.]

The simulator picked the right time to remind me.

Simulator, shut up!

"It's a piece of cake. Um, this door has a combination lock."

Holding the chainsaw, Xia Mu groped his way to the iron door of the secret room. There was a four-digit combination lock on it. As for the answer -

That bastard masked man didn't seem to give any actual clues, and just left a light-hearted sentence - [The password is very simple].

They searched for other clues for a long time but couldn't find any, so they could only try the password combinations one by one in the remaining twenty minutes.

0000、0001、0002……0114……0514

Time is running out, and Nagasaki Suyo's hand speed reaches the fastest speed in his life!

"How about I give it a try?"

Xia Mu came over and confidently adjusted the answer to [9999].

"That's impossible. That masked man shouldn't be able to be so--"

Click——

It was the sound of a combination lock being unlocked.

Nagasaki Suyo's words were stuck in her lips again and she didn't finish.

She heard the echo of strong luck.

"Huh? Is it really possible? Ahem, everything is under my control, hahahaha, General Nagasaki Suyo, please take this path quickly."

In fact, Xia Mu wanted to start from 9999 and try them one by one in reverse order, and he hit the jackpot and got it right.

But he won't miss the opportunity to show off in front of Miss Nagasaki Motoyo.

"Xia Mu..."

He is indeed a remarkable man.

Miss Nagasaki Suyo calls it "Neng".

After pushing open the iron gate, a long corridor appeared before their eyes.

Going through this side, there is another secret room.

This is the second level that Nagasaki Suyo and Xia Mu have to challenge.

"Let's go, Xia Mu."

She was about to push open the door, but Xia Mu seemed to sense some danger and frowned slightly.

"careful!"
