Daring! She cheated in the thriller game

Ah, work is so annoying, let’s destroy it.

Erwin grabbed his hair in annoyance and continued to review the pile of messy manuscripts.

Gu Yan glanced at the iron gate and said, "Let's leave first."

After they left the stairwell, Gu Yan began to analyze their current situation: "So according to you, we need to find other players to cooperate in order to complete the mission?"

"Not necessarily." Yu Lan shook her head and said, "This is just a C-level copy. This task may seem complicated and troublesome, but it is actually very easy to solve. At most, it will take a little longer."

At this point, she paused, thinking that she could actually cheat...but for the sake of other players' gaming experience and the careful heart of the dungeon boss, she'd better keep a low profile.

The three of them went downstairs and walked to the dormitory manager's duty room, where they happened to meet someone looking for the dormitory manager.

"Ah, why is this person here?"

Yu Lan felt helpless when she saw Guo Yu, who was anxiously asking questions to the dormitory manager. Hang Hang asked curiously, "Do you know him?"

"He's a player." Yu Lan told Guo Yu and Yu Caitong about what she saw yesterday: "I remember he doesn't live here. Could he be looking for that female player?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the dormitory manager pushed Guo Yu out of the door impatiently: "Go away, go away, I told you that there is no such person here, don't let me see you again!"

"Dormitory manager!" Guo Yu was kicked out of the door by the dormitory manager. He happened to meet Yu Lan next to him and his face turned ugly.

He walked up to Yu Lan angrily and said angrily: "What did you do to Cai Tong!"

Yu Lan frowned and stretched out a finger to push Guo Yu back: "Speak with some sense, I don't know the person you are talking about, what would I do to her?"

"Last night..." Guo Yu was about to blurt out that he had asked Yu Caitong to follow Yu Lan, but he suddenly came back to his senses and said vaguely: "She couldn't be contacted after she returned to the dormitory with you yesterday. Who else could it be if it wasn't you who did it?"

"Pfft." Yu Lan couldn't help laughing. "She doesn't live in the same dormitory with me, why are you asking me? Could it be that she wanted to follow me last night but lost me, and then you found me?"

Guo Yu's thoughts were exposed by Yu Lan, and his face turned red. He looked around cautiously, then gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Since you have discovered this, her disappearance must be related to you. Just wait and see!"

When Yu Lan heard what Guo Yu said, she looked at him in disbelief, as if she was surprised that he could say such a thing. Is this the level of a C-level player?

After saying these harsh words, Guo Yu glared at Yu Lan fiercely and then left, not noticing Gu Yan and the other person behind Yu Lan at all.

Yu Lan looked at Guo Yu's back and exclaimed: "This guy is really awesome."

"If it's as you said, Yu Caitong followed you last night, probably because she wanted to take action after the lights were turned off." Gu Yan thought for a moment and said, "She will most likely run into the dormitory manager. In that case... the body in the corridor is very likely hers."

"You make sense." Yu Lan took a step forward and knocked on the dormitory manager's door: "Then we just need to verify our hypothesis."

Just as he finished speaking, the dormitory manager suddenly opened the door. When he saw that it was Yu Lan, his expression became better, but he still said unhappily, "What's the matter?"

Yu Lan didn't care about the dormitory manager's cold face. She smiled and greeted the dormitory manager, then asked curiously, "Auntie, what did that person do just now?"

As she spoke, she said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I just heard my friend's name. He said he wanted to find my friend, but... I haven't heard my friend mention this person. I'm afraid he wants to harm my friend."

The distress revealed in Yu Lan's words seemed to indicate that she was very worried about her friend. Upon hearing this, the dormitory manager's face turned even uglier.

"I told him that he was not right!" The dormitory manager was a little angry and took out his phone to talk to other dormitory managers about this matter, asking them to be careful not to expose the privacy of students. He said: "Just now, that person kept asking me if I knew which dormitory Yu Caitong lived in, and also said that he wanted to see the student registration book. I had never heard of the name Yu Caitong, so I drove him away."

"So that's how it is." Yu Lan looked at the dormitory manager steadily. Seeing that she seemed to be fine, she prepared to leave: "Thank you, Auntie. I'll leave first."

"Wait." The dormitory manager stopped Yu Lan and said, "I remember you live in 404, right?"

Gu Yan and the other man outside the door held their breath nervously, but Yu Lan showed no reaction and nodded calmly, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"I just checked the table and there's an empty bed on the sixth floor. Do you want to move there?"

"Sixty-something?" Yu Lan asked casually, "Didn't they say there were no vacant beds yesterday? How come there are some now?"

"604." The dormitory manager sighed and said, "Yesterday a little girl said she wanted to move out and left today. If you want to move in, I can register for you."

Yu Lan laughed and said, "No need, 404 is actually not bad, it's just a little cold."

When the dormitory aunt heard this, she looked at Yu Lan with hesitation, and finally shook her head helplessly: "Forget it, if you want to move, just tell me."

"Okay." Yu Lan said goodbye with a smile, and her smile disappeared instantly after she closed the door.

Gu Yan pointed outside the door and said, "Let's talk while we walk."

It was almost time for class. Even though Yu Lan and the others woke up early, they had already wasted a lot of time. She and Hang Hang both had a class meeting in the morning, so it would be bad if they were late.

"I suspect Yu Caitong is the one who checked out of 604." Yu Lan said, "The dormitory manager's attitude is weird. She seems to have no memory of what happened last night."

"Then I'll go to Room 604 to investigate, and you go find out which class Yu Caitong is in. These three dormitory buildings are all in the same college, and I think you guys are assigned to the same counselor, so you can go ask that counselor when the time comes." Gu Yan said as he pushed out his bicycle.

"I thought there was one counselor for each class." Yu Lan said with some curiosity. She had not yet entered college, so she was very unfamiliar with college life. Some things that were common sense to Gu Yan and Hang Hang might not be common sense to Yu Lan.

Hang Hang laughed and said, "That's not the case. Usually one counselor is in charge of several classes, and class meetings are held by several classes together." He took out his phone and showed Yu Lan their class group chat. He said, "Check to see if this is the classroom where you hold your class meeting."

Yu Lan took a look and said in surprise, "It really is."

Gu Yan smiled and said, "That's great. You two can work together. I'll go investigate other things. See you in the cafeteria at noon."

"Row."

The two parted at the bottom of the dormitory building. Since Hang Hang didn't know how to ride a bicycle, Yu Lan became the one who rode the bicycle.

Hang Hang sat in the back seat and said a little embarrassedly: "Xiao Yu, how about I walk over there? I'm afraid you can't pedal——"

Before Hang Hang could finish his words, Yu Lan suddenly stepped on the pedal and started.

Hang Hang grabbed the bicycle seat in panic, and then he heard Yu Lan's voice coming slowly along with the wind: "Young man, you didn't even know where to go when I was riding my bicycle on the mountain road."

The Yu family's old house is on a mountain. It is very tiring to go down the mountain to buy a cup of milk tea or order a takeout. Therefore, Yu Lan has practiced the riding skills of speeding fast and steadily on unstable mountain roads since she was a child.

If it weren't for her poor health that prevented her from learning martial arts, she would have already flown down the mountain by stepping on the treetops.

Fortunately, Yulan walked around the school and memorized the map on the first day, otherwise they would have gotten lost and been late like other freshmen.

The class meeting was held in a large lecture hall. Yu Lan and Hang Hang sat in a corner, listening to the instructor's roll call while keeping an eye on the students who came in, trying to tell which were players and which were NPCs. This way they could pay attention to the players' actions and perhaps find some clues.

Not long after, Guo Yu walked in. He glanced around the classroom and quickly walked to another corner of the classroom. Yu Lan looked over and found five people sitting there, who seemed to be a team.

Guo Yu was talking to them in a low voice. The classroom was too noisy and they were a little far away from each other, so Yu Lan couldn't hear what they were saying and had to give up.

Not long after, the counselor finished calling the roll, cleared his throat, and began to talk about the things that new students should pay attention to.

Yu Lan listened attentively to what the counselor said, perhaps there would be some clues in it.

The counselor who was speaking suddenly met Yu Lan's focused gaze, and his heart suddenly felt warm.

People in the class probably feel that nothing matters anymore after entering college, so most of them keep their heads down, playing with their phones or chatting quietly with people around them. It is rare to see someone as serious as Yu Lan.

"...Don't come back late, don't stay out all night. If you are discovered by the dormitory manager, you will be penalized and I will invite you to my office to chat." After the counselor finished what he wanted to say today, he cleared his throat and said, "Is everyone okay?"

No one in the classroom responded, and the instructor was used to it. He took a sip of water and prepared to move on to the next topic. At this time, someone in the corner raised his hand.

"Teacher, I have a problem."

The counselor and Yu Lan looked over and found that it was the girl next to Guo Yu who was talking. She was one of the members of that team.

The counselor nodded: "You go ahead."

"Why do you want to put us in the old school building? There are obviously spaces in other dormitories."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the class started discussing in a low voice, and it was obvious that they all felt that the decision for them to live in the old school building was unfair.

The counselor's face turned ugly. She frowned and said, "The other dormitories are occupied by your seniors. There are not enough dormitories in the new campus for the freshmen, so we arranged you to live in the old campus building. This is the school's decision."

"This school is too bad." The girl sitting in front of Yu Lan whispered to the person next to her, "I heard that a murder happened in the building where we live!"

"Ah? No way?" another girl exclaimed.

The two girls were from Room 403. Yu Lan had been to their dormitory to say hello before. She leaned over and asked, "Is this true? A murder happened in our dormitory?"

The girl who was talking turned around and saw that it was Yu Lan: "You are here too... I also heard it from the senior who picked me up. He said that someone died in the dormitory where we lived a long time ago... Moreover, everyone in the same dormitory died."

At this point, she looked at Yu Lan with a strange look in her eyes. Yu Lan looked at her in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"The dormitory where the dead person lived... was 404."

Yu Lan covered her mouth in surprise and fear, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you must be kidding me!"

The girl sighed and said, "I also heard it from that senior brother. I heard that the four girls died quietly and no one noticed they were dead."

"Their class teacher found out that the four girls were absent. It was Monday, and thought that the girls were late because of traffic jam when they came from home. When the class teacher called their parents, their parents said that the children had not been home. They said that the school had weekend tutoring and they needed to live in the school. The class teacher felt something was wrong and went to their dormitory to see that the four girls were all..."

The girl swallowed nervously when she said this: "They were all hanged in the dormitory."

Hanged? Yu Lan frowned, thinking of the ghost she saw last night. It didn't look like he was hanged.

But she still pretended to be very scared and held Hang Hang's arm tightly.

Hang Hang's face also looked bad. He thought Yu Lan was really scared. Although his face was pale, he still gently comforted Yu Lan not to be afraid.

Yu Lan: ...I think it’s you, my friend, who is afraid.

Yu Lan thought it was funny, but she didn't show it on her face. She grabbed her hair anxiously, looking like she was about to cry: "This, this kind of thing is too terrible, I don't want to live there anymore!"

The girl also began to comfort Yu Lan: "I wanted to tell you about this when I added you on WeChat, but my parents were there at the time, and it would not be nice to talk about this in front of them... But it's been so long, what the senior said might be false, so don't be too scared."

"Wow." Yu Land lowered her head and covered her face with her hands, crying, as if she was greatly devastated by this incident.

The two girls looked at each other and whispered, "How about this, if you are really scared, you can come to our dormitory tonight and we can stay together for one night."

They also knew that because someone had died in Room 404, Yu Lan was the only one living in that dormitory, so they invited her to Room 403.

"Will this cause you trouble?" Yu Lan raised her head with a tear on her cheek and red eyes, which made people feel pity for her.

The two girls quickly waved their hands and said, "It's okay, we welcome you!"

Yu Lan burst into laughter, with a sweet smile on her face: "Okay, thank you so much."

The two girls were dazzled by Yu Lan's smile and showed loving smiles on their faces.

Yu Lan's smile froze for a moment. She always felt as if she was being taken advantage of.
