Lan Qiaoyi was still a little dazed when he opened his eyes, and he subconsciously sat up.

--"you're awake."

Hearing the man's voice unexpectedly and seeing Zhou Ziji walking towards him, Lan Qiaoyi barely reacted.

How did you get back?

He couldn't help trying to recall what happened last night, but found that his memory only stayed... after drinking the sweet juice in the bowl?

"Last night... I,"

While talking, Lan Qiaoyi lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed.

But he was picked up by the man who came over.

"—!"

"Sorry, Jojo, last night, because of my negligence, when I carried you back, I accidentally lost your shoes."

The petite boy was embraced by the tall man in the "princess hug" posture.

"I...it's okay, Zhou... Ziji, let me down."

Lan Qiaoyi kicked his legs in the man's arms, trying to jump off, but the man easily restrained his movement with one hand.

A pair of big hands with distinct joints held the teenager's slender and beautiful ankles in them, bringing a strong visual impact.

[Host, I didn't expect you to complete the first mission so easily!It seems that I was worrying about you for nothing! ]

After speaking, 039 sent a cute kaomoji [(○`3′○)] in Lan Qiaoyi's mind.

Lan Qiaoyi:? ? ?

"Jojo, you're drunk, let's go back."

The man with the one-sided golden eyes on the bridge of his nose bent down, passed his arm through Lan Qiaoyi's chest, and easily picked up the boy who was lying on the table.

Before leaving, he glanced at Jiang Tian, ​​who was hit by himself in the back of the neck, and fell on the seat at this time, with an unclear expression.

[Congratulations to the host for triggering the first mission: With his own power, he successfully induced the players' infighting. ]

[Please make persistent efforts and strive to become a qualified "little waste"~]

Just being held in Zhou Ziji's arms, the dizzy young man didn't hear anything at this time.

039 recounted what happened last night, of course, ignoring the fact that Zhou Ziji knocked him out because Jiang Tian kissed him.

Lan Qiaoyi's mood is a bit complicated, so... is it okay?

He subconsciously attributed Zhou Ziji's knocking out and Jiang Tian's knocking out to some conflict between the two, but 039 judged it to be his own credit. After all, at the beginning of the dungeon, Jiang Tian seemed to be There are quite a few criticisms of Zhou Ziji.

"what--"

Just as Zhou Ziji took out a pair of shoes from the dungeon space for Lan Qiaoyi to put on, a shrill cry came from outside, scaring the young man into a shudder.

The man with his head down stroked the slippery insteps in his hands twice, a hint of impatience for being disturbed crossed his expression.

"What happened?"

Lan Qiaoyi got off the bed, followed Zhou Ziji, and was about to walk out of the room, but when he was about to go out, the man suddenly turned around and covered his eyes.

Because I just washed my hands, the man's palms are still a little wet, and the water in the countryside is a little cold with some moisture.

"……Um?"

Lan Qiaoyi asked a puzzled question in a daze, because the man who had just woken up and listened to the waxy and soft voice felt numb for a while.

"Don't look."

Hearing this, his heart tightened, and the slender eyelashes that were held in the palm of the man were trembling slightly.

...unexpectedly timid.

"Are you OK!"

Lan Qiaoyi suddenly felt his right wrist being held by a warm hand, and at the same time, a boy's panting voice came from his ear.

The ghost knows how stinky Jiang Tian's face was when he was woken up by Zhao Ying yesterday. After finally suppressing the anger in his heart and falling asleep, he was woken up again by screams today.

It's just that when he saw the corpse behind the yard, Jiang Tianxia consciously wanted to look for that petite figure, but after looking around but couldn't see it, the boy felt that his blood had cooled down.

Fortunately...

"what's wrong?"

The boy's soft voice came, and he pulled down the hand covering his eyes by the way, and the man did as he wanted.

"... dead."

Jiang Tian hesitated for two or three seconds about what he was about to blurt out before telling the young man softly.

Seeing that although the young man was pale, he still pursed his lips, and after he didn't cry immediately, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Jiang Tian slowly backed away from his body, leaving half of Lan Qiaoyi's vision.

When he saw those bloody legs, he took a sharp breath, and was blocked by the boy again.

"Okay, okay, dead people, what's so interesting—"

Jiang Tian frowned, but raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ziji who was behind Lan Qiaoyi, the man's eyes were impassive.

Although the kitten is pitiful, there is also a powerful guardian by his side.

"Chen Hao! Huh huh—why?!"

The voice of the girls crying in the yard was intermittent, and the people who heard it panicked.

Zhao Ying and Zhou Ziji worked together to drag down the body of the boy in the couple, and hastily dealt with the tragedy in the yard, but although the traces were eliminated, the panic left to them could not be dispelled in a short time.

"Last night, what did Chen Hao do to trigger the death condition?"

Zhao Ying's face was serious, looking at the girl with ponytails who was being comforted by the other two girls, her tone was a bit rough.

Rao, as an old man who has cleared several worlds, even including a C-level mission world, his mood is definitely not very relaxed at this time. On the first day of the dungeon, a participant died , which means that this copy is not simple.

"I don't... I don't know. Yesterday, last night, when I slept until midnight, when I was in a daze, Chen Hao suddenly got up and said that he was going to the bathroom. I didn't care, so I continued to sleep, but, but later ,"

Wang Xue, who was Chen Hao's girlfriend, suddenly trembled.

"In such a terrifying world, how could I not be vigilant at all? I woke up once in the middle of the night to make sure that Chen Hao had returned, but at that time, there was clearly someone beside me!"

"What time did you wake up?"

Chu Yue asked suddenly.

Lan Qiaoyi's attention was attracted by him. The man who has always been alone since the beginning of the dungeon has deep eyes and a handsome face. He is at the level of being called "husband" in the real world , wearing a black windbreaker, which made his figure even more slender and stylish, but he exuded a cold aura all over his body, and the four characters "Don't get close to strangers" were written all over his body.

"It seems, it seems to be four o'clock in the middle of the night, I subconsciously glanced at the phone."

Wang Xue didn't understand why the man asked such a question, but immediately after, her face turned pale with shock at what the other party said next.

"Your boyfriend must have died within six hours."

"……What's the meaning?"

Wang Xue's expression was blank for a moment, and the whole person showed a dazed posture.

"After finger pressure, the corpse spots on his body have faded to a certain extent, but you said that he came back at four o'clock in the middle of the night."

After Chu Yue finished speaking, he kept silent again.

"So, your boyfriend never came back at all."

When everyone's faces were solemn, the atmosphere was extremely suppressed, like a string about to break, Jiang Tian's voice rang out abruptly.

Lan Qiaoyi looked at Wang Xue, whose expression was disastrous, and his whole body was on the verge of collapse. At this moment, he couldn't help feeling sympathy for the girl, but more importantly, deep fear.

"But, Chen Hao... why did he die suddenly?"

The girl who was being leaned on by Wang Xue suddenly opened her mouth weakly at this moment. Lan Qiaoyi thought for a while before remembering her name——Song Xiao.

"I, I don't know... woo woo woo—"

Wang Xue choked up and wiped the tears off her face with her hand. On the first day she entered the dungeon world, her boyfriend died in front of her eyes, but no one could comfort her.

The cruelty of the mission world is doomed not to leave too much time for the living to grieve and reminisce. If you want to continue living, you can only force yourself to look forward.

"But what I'm curious about is, what death condition was violated that caused Chen Hao to be killed on the first day?"

As soon as Zhou Ziji's words came out, Wang Xue was stunned, yes, what did her boyfriend do last night to die quietly by her side?

"I have no idea……"

As the girl spoke, her voice became lower and lower.

Now people can't be resurrected after death, but she doesn't even know the reason why the person she loves left, so she can only let him die inexplicably.

Lan Qiaoyi thought of the boy who had hardly spoken. It seemed that they hadn't talked since the beginning, and it made an impression in his mind again. It was embarrassing that they used such a method.

"Okay, Chen Hao's death certainly makes us sad, but the deceased is gone. What is more important now is to seize the time to find clues about the sacrifice. Only in this way can more victims be avoided."

The girls were all a bit sleepy, but they cheered up and echoed Zhou Ziji's words.

After eating some of the food they brought, everyone teamed up to look for clues about the sacrifice.

Chu Yue has always been a loner, and everyone has no objection, after all, the man looks like a big boss.

Without Chen Hao, the three girls left the courtyard with Zhao Ying and Zhou Ziji respectively, leaving only Lan Qiaoyi and Jiang Tian behind.

As if realizing the difficulty of this task world, the red-haired boy uncharacteristically did not tease Lan Qiaoyi, but became serious.

"Who..."

The courtyard door creaked, Lan Qiaoyi followed Jiang Tian, ​​and saw the trembling old woman who came out to open the door.

"Hi, old man, we are a tourist group that just came yesterday, and we are looking for you to learn something."

Lan Qiaoyi looked at the extremely polite Jiang Tian with some surprise, and got a slight glance from the other party.

"Oh, I see, come in, cough cough,"

The old woman opened the courtyard door and invited the two of them in.

Lan Qiaoyi followed Jiang Tian and stepped into the courtyard gate.

It was only at the moment when he crossed the threshold of the courtyard gate that his eyes were attracted by something.

As if realizing something, the boy turned pale with a "shua—" and his body stiffened unconsciously.
