Chapter 516: 516

Inside the cluttered bedroom, there was hardly a place to stand . The floor was covered with clothes and books, and the coffee table was piled high with empty cans and food boxes . The only place that was relatively clean was the computer table .

“Fan Chong, you’ve been playing for too long . Try to do some exercise by cleaning the room . “

Chen Ge walked to the computer table carefully and looked at the screen . The dark screen had a sentence written in blood—You killed Xiao Bu .

“This looks like it’s written by a child . ” Chen Ge had seen similar handwriting in Room 104 .

“Don’t wear the headphones when you’re playing; the music will just disturb you . ” Fan Chong was very experienced . He clicked on the screen, and the words slowly disappeared . With a flicker, the screen returned to normal . “The controls are very easy; you just need to click with the cursor . Do you want something to drink? How about a can of coke?”

“Sure, thank you . ” Chen Ge’s attention was fully focused on the game . The game’s style was clearly aimed at very young girls; the main color palette was pastel, and it looked very cute and warm . “It’s quite amazing that you were able to clear a game like this . “

“I was just bored . ” Fan Chong looked rather embarrassed . “Bro! Help me get two cans of cold coke!”

A while later, Fan Dade came in with a tray . “I made two dishes of simple food . You can eat it if you’re hungry . “

After putting down the tray, Fan Dade did not look like he was leaving . He also turned to look at the computer screen . “Boss Chen, you have to be careful when you play . The game has many jump scares—don’t be fooled by the cute images . “

“Don’t worry . ” Chen Ge did not touch the things on the tray . He had a habit of not eating other people’s food after he left the Haunted House . Moving the mouse, Chen Ge soon got used to the control . He controlled Xiao Bu to get out of bed and leave the room .

With Fan Chong’s explanation, Chen Ge very quickly grasped the map of the game . The town in the game was almost identical to Li Wan City in real life . After ten minutes, Chen Ge found Xiao Bu’s friend’s home . He was about to open the door to the dungeon when a chat box appeared—’The friend’s house is so big . Should I go take a tour of the second floor?’

This should be Xiao Bu’s inner monologue . After Chen Ge saw that, he turned to ask Fan Chong, “Have you been to the second floor?”

“The only thing noteworthy is the friend’s certificate from winning a contest . I’ve clicked the entire surface using a blanket search . ” Fan Chong sounded very certain .

Chen Ge thought about it and still controlled Xiao Bu to go to the second floor . The wall with the brightest paint had a certificate hanging on it . Clicking it with the cursor, the chat box popped up again—’The certificate is awarded to student Jiang Xiaohu for his good performance and good behavior . ‘

Jiang Xiaohu‽ Isn’t that name of Jiang Long’s child? I saw this name inside Room 104 earlier! Chen Ge stared at the screen for a long time before he recovered . “Only a certificate in such a large room, what is the purpose of this?”

He could not understand it . He controlled Xiao Bu to go back down to the first floor, opened the hidden door, and entered it . The cute style immediately turned creepy and dark . The floor was filled with the petals of wilted sunflowers . Between the crevices of the tiles on the ground, there seemed to be pairs of eyes looking at him . It felt like a sweet dream turning into a nightmare .

“Boss Chen, you have to be careful starting from now . Danger can come from anywhere, and you’ll die if you’re not careful . ” Fan Chong started to worry . Gripping the can, his eyes were glued to the screen . After exiting the dungeon, there was the bus stop and the woman in the red raincoat . Fan Chong had already cleared this part, so Chen Ge only needed to follow his guide .

“You said that you got stuck—what part is it?” Chen Ge passed the few challenges successfully . Escaped the woman in red raincoat, hid himself from Ma Fu, lost the drunken artist—under his control, Xiao Bu seemed to come alive and moved agilely .

“After dark, it’s better to not wander the street, or you’ll die from mysterious circumstances . It’s better to hide inside the buildings . ” Fan Chong pointed at the top of the screen . “You see the color of the sky? It’s gray now . When it’s completely black, then it’s dark . The game pays close attention to such details . “

“Then what should I do now?” Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu and stood at a junction . She seemed lost .

“Based on my precious experience, there are ten minutes until night . You have to find a safe place for Xiao Bu before dark . I got stuck here . ” Fan Chong put down the can and scratched his head . “You can’t enter normal houses . I tried many places . After dark, you can only enter the hotel and Xiao Bu’s own apartment building in this city . “

“Then, couldn’t you just let her go home?”

“There’s a dead body at her home . There’s a female ghost living next door . Inside the grass at the bottom of the house, there’s a murderer dismembering his victim . I’ve tried many times, and there’s only one ending if I go home, death . ” Fan Chong’s eyes were red . “After dark, the game’s difficulty increases tenfold; there’s no way of escape!”

“That’s rather harsh . Then we’ll go to the hotel . ” Chen Ge kept calm . He was counting the time .

“It’s even worse at the hotel . The owner is a crazed murderer in disguise . The chef is also a mental patient . Other than Xiao Bu, all the tenants there are insane . ” Fan Chong vented everything . “This afternoon, I tried to choose the hotel . In the end, I was chased by the boss for twenty minutes . The game designer is heartless . Once Xiao Bu is touched, she’ll die, and the player only has one life . After you die, you need to start again . “

“Therefore, this is a game that is working against itself?”

“The only way that I can think of to clear this game is to play a night of hide and seek with the boss and leave the hotel at dawn . Other than that, there is no other way,” Fan Chong suggested .

“Let me try . ” Chen Ge looked at the watch . “There is seven minutes until night fall . Let me go to Xiao Bu’s home to take a look . “

He controlled Xiao Bu to come to a rather high-end residential apartment . After the style changed, the warm area became dark and cold . All the friendly neighbors had disappeared .

“You’ll die if you go home . ” Fan Chong did not have the heart to look . Whenever Xiao Bu died, he had an indescribable sadness in his heart like the game had affected the man in real life .

There was rustling coming from the brush, Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to move away from it . She entered the building directly . The elevator opened, and a person in a black rain coat came out . The man kept his head lower . A chat box appeared—’You didn’t see his face, but you remembered his body size . ‘

Taking the elevator to her home, Chen Ge controlled Xiao Bu to open the door . The box reappeared—’You saw your stepfather lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the room . ‘

Entering the room, three options popped up .

1 . Call the police immediately and ask the neighbor for help .

2 . Find a needle and thread to close the wounds and turn your stepfather into a doll .

3 . Ignore him and go to sleep .

Chen Ge thought about it and chose the third option .

“Bro, be careful . ” After he made his choice, Fan Chong quickly stood up . “Are you sure you want to pick three?”

“You already said that the neighbor is a female ghost, so one is out . Option two doesn’t match a normal person’s way of thinking, and in comparison, three sounds more normal,” Chen Ge answered seriously .
