The man's voice of escaping was panicked and urgent, and he hurried away from the bushes where Jiu Ming was hiding in just an instant.
Immediately afterwards, the things behind also caught up.
Even though he had been in close contact with this kind of thing many times in the dungeon before, Nine Lives could never adapt to it.
A cold, evil aura slowly approached.
There is no sound.
But Jiu Ming, who had his head buried entirely on the ground, felt an unparalleled sense of fear, as if a malicious gaze was staring at him.
He controlled his slightly trembling body and tried not to shake too much.
Fortunately, this terrifying presence did not stay long. After a while, the cold feeling disappeared.
It left with its prey.
Jiu Ming, who was hiding in the bushes, breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed to have skipped this place. His luck was really good.
Although he lamented his good luck in his heart, he did not act rashly. Instead, he lay down in the bushes for a while without even raising his head.
After a long time, and after confirming that the thing had completely left, Jiu Ming slightly raised his head and looked around. Seeing that there was not even a ghost around, he quickly got up from the bushes.
"Damn it," he muttered softly and patted the dirt on his body, "I am obviously the hunter, so hiding like this really loses my identity..."
Since there are ghosts that chase players in this dungeon, why do they let players play hide-and-seek with each other?
Wouldn't it be better to just set the ghost as a hunter and let the ghost chase the player?
There is no time to explore this issue now.
He quickly took his legs out from the bushes and walked up the steps to the door of the building.
"That ghost may come back at any time. I have to hurry up...the thing on the rooftop..."
Jiu Ming whispered to himself softly and subconsciously looked up.
A pale face appeared in sight.
Gu Mian swore that he was just poking his head casually on the rooftop, but the player downstairs suddenly jumped up and down as if he had seen a ghost, jumping more happily than the most active toad he had ever seen.
Of course, after realizing that this pale face belonged to the player who was a doctor by profession, Jiu Ming, who was jumping for joy than a toad, calmed down, and even wanted to kill this player who had unexpectedly revealed his pale face. Doctor on the rooftop.
By this time, Jiu Ming, who had calmed down, had already run to the rooftop.
Gu Mian has been waiting here.
He saw with his own eyes how this long-haired boy, who did not look very mature, dug into the bushes next to the teaching building, and then started shaking with him along with a piece of bushes.
After I got out, I was shocked when I poked my head out.
Gu Mian thought he would run up angrily and talk, but this player, who didn't look very mature in appearance, didn't accuse him, but just silently cast a resentful look.
There were still unidentified cloth objects floating on the railings. Jiu Ming had noticed these things when he was at the bottom of the building.
"I said you have been on the rooftop for a long time, right?" Jiu Ming asked Gu Mian while looking at the railing of the rooftop.
He didn't know when this doctor-looking player came to the rooftop. It seemed that he had come up before him? Then the doctor should have been on the rooftop when the sound of falling was heard, and he might have witnessed a "murder case" with his own eyes!
Maybe he will know some useful clues!
Hearing this, Gu Mian touched his chin: "It didn't take long, it was almost when you got into the bushes."
"What?"
Jiu Ming suspected that he heard wrongly: "When did you come up?"
If the doctor happened to go up to the rooftop when he got into the bushes, it means that he was still in the building going up the stairs when the strange spirit chased the player!
Although the strange spirit just now was not chasing him, it openly went up the stairs when it was chasing others...
Who can be so open-minded in a building with supernatural spirits?
Gu Mian spoke again: "Just now when I was on the first floor, I heard that another player was being chased, so I took the opportunity..."
Taking advantage?
Jiu Ming always feels that this word is inappropriate, but after thinking about it carefully, there seems to be no other word that is more suitable for the current context than "taking advantage of the opportunity".
There seems to be something wrong with this doctor's brain circuitry, and it would be better to have less contact with him.
Jiu Ming thought while looking at the strip hanging on the railing.
This is a very thin piece of clothing, because it is so thin that when it hangs down, it hangs in a straight line, like rags.
Seeing Jiu Ming take a few steps forward, he seemed to want to take a look at this dress.
Gu Mian suddenly stopped him: "I've already seen these clothes once."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper: "There is only one pocket, and this is in it."
Jiu Ming curiously took the paper and saw that it turned out to be a supermarket receipt.
It was very dark, so he brought the note in his hand closer and could see the small print on it clearly.
[Café Coral Supermarket Ticket]
【Bile Cucumber Potato Chips*3】
[Yuanleyuan milk ice cream*1]
【Kang's Mineral Water*1】
【乐王rice vinegar*3】
that's it.
"Is this..." Jiu Ming frowned, "Is this asking us to find the supermarket called Café de Coral?"
And then find the products on the receipt?
But what does this have to do with hide and seek? This copy is really confusing.
Out of caution, Jiu Ming quickly searched all the clothes hanging on the rooftop railing, but still found nothing.
He looked at the receipt in his hand with some disappointment.
Is this the only clue?
It is not easy to find such a designated supermarket in a small city, and it is not ruled out that there are supermarkets with the same name here. It is really difficult, too difficult.
Gu Mian also looked at the small ticket in Jiu Ming's hand: "Don't be discouraged. The theme of the hide-and-seek game is the word 'find'. The current clues are also for us to find. In short, the theme remains the same. You should focus on finding other players." It’s the same thing in supermarkets.”
Compared to a tank and a stroller, the former is of course more conspicuous.
Jiu Ming raised his head in surprise.
He found that this player, who was a doctor by profession, seemed to naturally play the role of a close brother.
As a doctor with poor physical fitness, this player's mentality seems to be particularly relaxed.
Jiu Ming paused for a moment, and then said: "I thought that as a doctor, you would be very cautious and try to be protected by other players. I didn't expect that I was wrong."
Not only did they not find anyone to protect them, they instead swaggered up to the rooftop in a building with strange spirits.
"It's just that as a player who develops professional skills, your physical fitness is definitely not as good as other players, so it's best to act with others... Even if other players can't help, it's okay to pull them away..."
At this time, Gu Mian saw Jiu Ming in front of her twirling her ponytail in a very coquettish manner: "Are you willing to be pulled by me and run away?"
