Chapter 86: The City of Fog
Without hesitation, Qin Manjiang pressed to answer.
"Hello?"
He asked first.
The response to him was endless silence first.
After a while... he heard a confused and low female voice:
"who I am?"
Strange things happen every moment in the world, but it is hard to include a person suddenly calling and asking you who she is.
After taking a look at the name that was stored for this number on the phone, Qin Manjiang chose to remain silent.
“Where is this?”
On the phone, the low female voice was not only confused, but also felt a little helpless and panicked.
"Ding bei bei!!!"
The short car whistle sounded through her phone, and Qin Manjiang seemed to see dense vehicles passing by quickly.
What happened to this woman?
"Are you on the road?" Qin Manjiang asked.
"highway……"
On the other side, a woman wearing a white dress, with messy hair, extremely thin and sickly skin, was swaying through the middle of the road and returned to the sidewalk.
Qin Manjiang heard obvious problems from the woman's voice.
Her spirit was so dazed, as if she had just woken up from a nightmare.
"You said a landmark you can see nearby, I'll come to you."
Qin Manjiang said after thinking for a moment.
"I'm under a tree..."
“…”
“Change one.”
"Mermaid Fountain..." she said again.
Mermaid Fountain?
After careful consideration, Qin Manjiang determined the approximate location, she was in the west of the city.
"Don't walk around, wait for me to come."
He did not hang up the phone, and pulled the little yellow dog home, placed it, and immediately went out.
This woman's condition is very strange and her identity is even stranger. She can't even remember who she is, and will subconsciously call this mobile phone. She must have a close relationship with the owner of this mobile phone.
The rough speculation took shape in my mind. When Qin Manjiang was rushing to the west of the city, the other people in the monster game also started a discussion about the strange code name and the strange talk that suddenly passed the level.
"Is it a newcomer?"
"A newcomer can reach the chief position after passing the novice mission?"
"Isn't that evening primrose the same? No one has seen her before, but she suddenly rushed to the sixth seat."
"No... this is not a prompt for new players to pass the level, this is a weird thing."
"So, there is only one possibility."
“Which kind?”
"A no-term weird talk, it's been going on. What happened suddenly today broke a certain balance and ended the weird talk."
"Is this possible..."
Everyone's discussion fell into silence. Although it was unbelievable, it was indeed the most likely thing to happen.
The question is, how long did the [Man in the Coffin] last? It made a stranger suddenly rush to the chief position?! This is simply...
Among them, Chen Zhiyuan was particularly shocked. He knew how many spiritual pupils Yang currently has. The number of spiritual pupils Yang held was about the sum of the top five of the ten seats.
But even so, that person surpassed Yang in one fell swoop!
What kind of weird story did that person named Nie Yunzhen pass the level...
———
Cat face cafe.
After reading various information that suddenly appeared in the Strange Talk game, Shen Shi put down his phone.
He smiled at the girl opposite the coffee table: "I said, you don't need to thank me specifically."
The girl sitting opposite him is naturally leaves and willow leaves.
In three days, the two passed the [Aging Me] level, and she also obtained a spiritual pupil with a not too low amount.
Moreover, the real life path is just like what Shen Shi said. Don’t have any physical contact with the “cared person”. Secondly, you must be flexible and flexible and do not agree to the “it” requirements at will.
"Of course not!" Yang Liuye looked at him seriously, "This is a life-saving grace. If it weren't for you, Mr. Chen, I would have died of old age like everyone else..."
Her expression was a little hesitant, and her deep brows frowned slightly.
He hates this kind of time-waste behavior.
He took out his pocket watch and looked at it. He smiled and said, "What do you want to ask? Just ask, I will answer you."
Yang Liuye breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, holding the coffee cup in both hands, and asked, "Mr. Chen, I want to know... how did you draw those inferences?"
"It's not difficult. After reading the opening speech and the task requirements, I have a general idea." The coffee in front of Chen Si did not move at all, and still said with a smile.
"Ah?" Yang Liuye said she was a little unbelievable.
"We have all analyzed the opening words and the game's mission requirements, but..." Her confused expression was completely different.
Shenshen looked at the city where there was suddenly fog and said, "The opening words and task requirements are both reminders and traps. I just simply extracted two words."
"Which two words are they?" Yang Liuye recalled the opening words and task requirements of the strange talk about [Aging Me].
Opening speech: I am getting older. Why is this happening? Why can’t I stop aging? My teeth fall off, my hair is gray, my waist bent, my legs can no longer support my body, and my eyes are getting turbidder day by day. Why does such a thing fall on my head? Is this... retribution...
Game requirements: arrive at the dusk apartment at 7 o'clock in the evening. After midnight, take turns to take care of the elderly for one hour. The game duration is three days. Those who are late are considered to be a game failure. Those who leave the apartment are considered to be a game failure. Those who die are considered to be a game failure. Those who fail to play the game and eliminate them.
"Retribution, take care of it." The sank's eyes fell back to her from the heavy fog outside the window.
"Retribution...care..." She savored the two words carefully and asked, "I still don't understand..."
Chen Jian didn't keep her back and simply explained: "Retribution means talking about the victim, not innocent. All the actions of trying to save her are seeking death."
"Then Guan Tangbao said that they would rescue the female college student named Anran. In fact, you always knew that it was a dead end?" Yang Liuye suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Chen Si shook his head: "Photo is required to verify that only by real death caused by saving her can it show that my thinking is not a problem."
"As for... care," Chen Si smiled even more gently, "Didn't everyone realize that care is an active word?"
"The caretaker is in a weak position in the context, and the ghost is constantly making demands for us, and uses various means to suggest that if it does not meet its requirements, we will die tragically."
Chen Si said it lightly, as if it was an extremely simple thing: "Everything is always answered and you dare not refuse. This is not care, this is a slave."
"If we have such a status in this strange story, the game's requirement should be to 'serve the elderly', 'serve the elderly', rather than 'take care of the elderly'."
Yang Liuye was stunned when she heard this. Everyone watched the opening speech and the game request for a long time, but they could not come to a conclusion that would convince everyone. However, after being sorted out by Shen Si, it seemed that this was the case?
"Excluding the unknown of the first three months of death, the rest of the people had physical contact with it, and then died alive. From their description after they came out, we can see that the ghost's request was also deliberately allowing us to have physical contact with it. In addition, the misunderstanding of the word "care", the fear of death did not dare to refuse, and almost everyone would be forced to have physical contact with it."
"Actually, this is not necessary."
Chen Si suddenly looked at her and smiled and said, "Didn't you do it too? Later, he asked you to carry it to the toilet, but you said that for the sake of its own good, don't walk too much, just go to the bathroom and get a basin so that it can be convenient for it directly on the bed."
"This is the way to live, change your thinking, and not be led by the ghosts," he stood up and bowed slightly to the willow leaves. "Under the rules of the game, we are equal to them."
His smile was soft and bright: "Thank you for your coffee, goodbye, Miss."
