The next morning, hotel restaurant.

Seven players gathered at a table, and at a glance, it was obvious that Qi Jun and Yu Zhang's faces were a little haggard.Especially Qi Jun, his eyes are blue and black, his face is pale, and he looks like he is "spending a good night with something".Others looked at him and were surprised, and asked, "Qi Jun, what's the matter with you?"

Was the game so fierce on the first night?

In contrast, Ji Hanchuan and Zhu Ge sat across from Qi Jun, both of them looked full of sleep and rest.Zhu Ge still feels that he is dreaming. Yesterday at past twelve o'clock, when Ji Hanchuan opened the door and came in, he was startled with fright.It can be seen that Ji Hanchuan was in high spirits, so he asked casually: "How is it?"

Ji Hanchuan replied: "Fortunately, I made money this afternoon." He spent 200 yuan and had a cordial meeting with the workers on the construction site.Chatting from Tiannan to Haibei, I have a vague understanding of the world that is missing in my memory.

During this period, the sound of the cement truck churning became the background sound.

Zhu Ge felt complicated about this.

Oh, it seems that since he became a roommate with this "Han Chuan", his mood has been very complicated.

Time pulls back to the present.Qi Jun weakly held the spoon, stirred the porridge in the bowl, and sighed: "Don't mention it."

He woke up from a dream last night, seeing that Yu Zhang looked like he had fallen asleep, and the phone stopped ringing.But Qi Jun felt cold all over, and he didn't dare to take it lightly.He thought of the voices in the dream: back to back, back to back.

He looked at the bed beneath him in horror.It seems that there is a hidden force, gently urging in his ear: "Go under the bed and take a look, take a look."

Bewitched, he actually lowered his head and wanted to lie down on the bed.

Fortunately, it is the first day.

When his gaze was about to touch the bottom of the bed, Qi Jun suddenly woke up, covered in cold sweat.A sleepless night followed.

With this opening, all players appear silent.Although people at other tables were also eating quietly, the deadness of their table was still particularly eye-catching.Not long after, two more people came with dinner plates.

When one of them came over, an NPC greeted him, calling, "Manager Gao."

It was a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Mr. Peng who spoke yesterday, but slightly thinner. He sat down beside Ji Hanchuan, looked around at everyone, and said, "Are you the players in this game?"

Ji Hanchuan raised his eyebrows, and the eyes of the other players showed more or less scrutiny.Manager Gao introduced himself and said, "My name is Gao Xiuran, and this is my sixth game. By the way, I have game experience for half a year."

Except for Yu Zhang who played a game for a year, this is the longest game time among all the people present.Gao Xiuran said: "I live with an NPC. It's that 'Mr. Peng'."

The players looked at each other, and Ji Hanchuan asked him, "Have you encountered any problems?"

Gao Xiuran was silent for a moment, then said: "Last night, Mr. Peng slept with his back to me."

Ji Hanchuan responded and waited for the next half of his sentence.

Gao Xiuran: "But his face is facing me."

The players gasped.

Ji Hanchuan was puzzled: "But isn't his body under the quilt? How do you know that his back is facing you?"

Gao Xiuran was choked by his words, and after a while, he replied, "Look at the direction of your hands."

Ji Hanchuan said "Oh", a little embarrassed: "Go ahead."

Zhuge watched this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the trace of panic that had arisen just now dissipated invisible.That inexplicable feeling emerged again: I always felt that being roommates with Han Chuan was the first time I had been in the game for so long, when I was full of European spirit.

It was this kind of thought that allowed him to bravely pick up the clothes drying pole last night and poke directly at the big mouth.If you want to be protected by the big boss, you have to put in some effort and show your attitude.

Gao Xiuran said quietly: "I don't think President Peng is human."

Ji Hanchuan said dryly, "Obviously."

Gao Xiuran frowned, "I have thought about whether I can open a separate room..."

When the others looked at him, Wu Huan said, "Will the 'Road to Life' be so easy to find?"

Gao Xiuran smiled wryly: "What else can I do, I have to try."

After such a silence, not long after, there was one more person.This time it was a young girl who sat down with a smile and said, "My name is Zheng Ling, and I share the room with Cui Yutong who was taken away by the ambulance yesterday."

So far, a round table is full.Compared with Gao Xiuran's melancholy and Qi Jun's haggardness, Zheng Ling seemed a little too relaxed, as if he was really on vacation, leisurely and enjoying himself.She said: "When Cui Yutong drowned yesterday, I was beside her."

Others looked at her.

Zheng Ling still had the same smiling face and said, "But I really didn't notice her. Hey, everyone knows that games are like this."

The others were silent, Ji Hanchuan asked, "Which game are you in?"

Zheng Ling shrugged and said, "Fifth game. Oh, 21 days, isn't it very little?"

Chen Miaomiao seemed to want to say something - she had less game time and games than Zheng Ling - but Ji Hanchuan interrupted her, and asked Zheng Ling the next question: "Then, are you the first How many groups?"

Zheng Ling smiled and said, "The third group." He added, "Cui Yutong is in the fourth group."

Ji Hanchuan paused, but the others at the table understood: This is all the players.

There are ten tables in the conference room.At each table, there is one player.

Until now, players have mostly been "marked" by a particular ghost.Generally speaking, in the first few days of the game, as long as you avoid the things that mark you, you will be safe.It's just hard to say what will happen in the next few days.

After Ji Hanchuan finished his breakfast seriously, he recommended it to others: "This purple potato ball is delicious, why don't you try it?"

The others were silent, Zhuge cheered him on and took a sip.Very sweet and waxy.

Zhu Ge silently swallowed "This is the taste that girls like", and saw Ji Hanchuan eating with chopsticks, enjoying himself very much.Finally, he put down his chopsticks to wipe his mouth, and asked Gao Xiuran casually: "You are the manager, so do you want to pass the customs?"

Everyone paused, and at this moment, I suddenly remembered my identity here: an intern in a financial company who has just joined the company for three months...to obey the company's arrangements...to receive training...to pass the customs.

Gao Xiuran sighed, and replied: "Yes. And Mr. Peng is in charge. Our managers talk to Mr. Peng, and then we go to you employees." That was still the matter on the seventh night.If you think about it, you will know that "clearance" will not be that simple.

Thinking of this, he became even more worried, with a bitter look on his face.

Ji Hanchuan patted him on the shoulder, comforting him: "The boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridge."

Gao Xiuran: "..." This is not consoling.

……

……

After this day, the players figured out the routine of the game, trained on time every day, soaked in hot springs, and then gathered together in Ji Hanchuan's room to play cards.

In addition, Zheng Ling said that she did not encounter any strange things from the beginning to the end.When the others heard this, they were a little envious.But I didn't think much about it.There are really lucky people in the game.Not to mention anything else, just talk about the things they encountered. Gao Xiuran, who lived in a room with ghosts, and Qi Jun, who was "back to back" every night, were obviously more difficult than others.

Qi Jun broke down on the third day and asked Ji Hanchuan to borrow money, saying that he would go out for a night.

On the morning of the fourth day, he was even more haggard. When he returned to the hotel, his face was darkened, like a ghost.Others saw it and understood: the occurrence of supernatural events really won't be limited to this place.

At noon that day, Gao Xiuran looked solemn, and conveyed the news from the hospital to everyone: "It is said that Cui Yutong suffered a heart attack and passed away."

When the others put down their chopsticks, Wu Huan let out a soft "ah" and frowned.

For a player who has never dealt with and met by chance, they can at most say "poor".What's more, it's still sad that the rabbit died and the fox died.Although she didn't know what happened to that player, but she was alone in the hospital, so one could imagine how scared she must be when the ghosts attacked.

When walking from the hotel to the hotel that day, everyone was silent.They are such a large group of people walking together, which attracts the attention of others.When he walked to the construction site, Ji Hanchuan glanced in the direction of the construction site intentionally or unintentionally.

Then look away.

That night, after the others had left, Zhuge heard Ji Hanchuan say, "Old Zhu, I'm a little worried, and I think it's better to go to the construction site to have a look."

Zhuge scratched his head: "What are you worried about?"

Ji Hanchuan: "They seem to be closed today. It's not the weekend."

Zhu Ge thought about it: "Oh, you are worried about those NPCs."

Ji Hanchuan frowned, Zhuge advised him: "It's not necessary. I heard people say that these game scenes are all recycled."

Ji Hanchuan was startled.Zhu Ge said: "When our round is over, in this hotel, we will restart the training and restart the 'first-class quality is quiet'... Hey, in short, that's what happened."

Ji Hanchuan was silent for a moment, and asked, "What are those NPCs?"

Zhuge sat up and passed Ji Hanchuan a cigarette.Smoke rose in the house, Zhuge sighed, and put his hands on his knees: "Who knows? I'm not afraid of your jokes. In the second game, I treated NPCs very well, and I was laughed at by others... , A few old players said that NPCs are used to block knives. One day when you are chased by a ghost and there is an NPC next to you, it is better to push the NPC to the back than to push the player.”

Ji Hanchuan said quietly: "Aren't they human?"

Zhu Ge asked back: "Are they considered human beings? They live in symbiosis with games and are part of games. You have played games before, I mean the real ones, on computers and mobile phones. These days, they are doing more and more. True, but at the end of the day, those are just numbers."

He said earnestly, "Han Chuan, I didn't expect you to care about this." After all, he never doubted from the beginning to the end that his roommate must be an experienced old player, which is why he has such a strong psychological quality , "But brother advises you, it's really not necessary."

After a while, Ji Hanchuan said "Mmm".

In a blink of an eye, it's the fifth day.

Early this morning, Chen Miaomiao and her NPC roommates opened the door of the room together.Outside the door, it was not a familiar corridor, but a bottomless staircase.

Chen Miaomiao froze in place, and her roommate also froze, her voice trembling, and asked, "Miaomiao, this..."
