Suspended Life Game

Shen Mu's heart tightened: "How did you die?"

"Car accident." Xie You's voice sounded, "After going to school on Monday, I wanted to ask her, but I didn't dare to. I always feel that something has really changed after I went."

Xie You smiled: "Actually, something has changed, it's just... I didn't intend not to say it all the time, I just wanted to ask to understand, I just wanted to find a good time to prepare mentally first, and then I wasn't ready yet. Well, there was a car accident at her house."

"Her family?" Shen Mu caught the key word, "Isn't she alone?"

"Well, it's the whole family."

Shen Mu was really surprised this time, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xie You continued: "The day of the accident was Thursday. I only heard about it when I was in school on Friday. It was said that the male owner was driving fatigued, and the family of four died on the spot. I have known her for so long, and I don't know her." Knowing that she has a younger brother, she doesn't like to talk about family affairs, and I don't like to ask... Then this story should end here. I have almost forgotten it for more than ten years, and of course it is impossible to completely forget it , but it’s just a story in memory, a symbol.”

"So, now you think," Shen Mu let out a sigh of relief when the story ended after hearing this, "You think No. 5 is Lu Yuling, right?"

Xie You was silent for a while: "...Senior, tell me, is it possible for a person who has been dead for 11 years to still be alive?"

Shen Mu was also silent for a while: "Of course it's impossible. Why do you think No. 5 is Lu Yuling? According to what you said, you haven't seen her for ten years. She was only 7 or 8 years old at that time. Even if you still remember How can she predict what she will look like 10 years from now?"

"Of course I can't. I saw her for the first time this morning. I just thought this person was very beautiful, but I didn't feel familiar at all." Xie You pursed his lips.

Shen Mu felt that his mouth was dry and a little thirsty when he touched the scene. Even the water in this dungeon had to be limited for a limited time...

Shen Mu suddenly recalled that when he spoke just now, No. 12 had said something similar to "you people who haven't even played 9 games in the fifth game" with disgust.The fifth round...I'm afraid it's not just a "quantitative change", but a round of "qualitative changes" in the rules or other aspects.

"Senior?" Seeing that Shen Mu, who had been listening attentively, suddenly lost his mind, Xie You was a little puzzled.

"Ah." Shen Mu recovered, "You continue."

Xie You still had doubts in his eyes, but he continued: "This morning, when I came here, there were not many people there. I am now at the door to admire the vastness, etherealness and greatness of the starry sky..."

"Pfft. Are you okay to continue?"

"...I stood at the door looking at the stars. Half an hour earlier, several people came one after another. I didn't know them at the time. I only thought that No. 2 and No. 5 were very eye-catching. Seeing me standing at the door, everyone We didn't know each other, so we nodded politely, and no one planned to have an awkward chat, so we all went in." Speaking of this, Xie You's eyes flashed, "No. 5 was the last one, and when she passed by me, she suddenly approached me. It was very close, and whispered something in my ear..."

"You smell like lemons, which suits you very well."

Shen Mu couldn't help sniffing it seriously.

"No."

"Neither at all!"

Then Xie You said this tricky sentence: "When we were young, we named each other, which was nicknames. Because I like to drink lemonade, and I like yellow, so Lu Yuling always called me lemon."

"This name is only used by me and her."

"This morning, I entered the room after saying this on the 5th, but I suddenly remembered many things about Lu Yuling when I was a child..." Xie You's forehead was beaded with sweat, and his voice paused, "Then I will Look at number 5...she...although I haven't seen the grown-up Lu Yuling, but she really looks like her."

"Is it possible..." After a moment of silence, Shen Mu asked again.

Xie You shook his head lightly: "I know senior, you want to say whether it is possible that I made a mistake, after all, the judgment on this matter is mainly my subjective feeling... Is it just a coincidence? gone."

"Actually, I want to say that it must not be a coincidence, and that's not necessarily the case." Xie You suddenly smiled and let out a long sigh of relief, "It's just that most of the time, people's feelings are very accurate. If there is something to say, it must be true." I don't have any evidence to prove it... But I'm afraid..." Xie You's eyes sharpened at this moment, "No. 5, that girl named Esme is Lu Yuling."

"I see." Shen Mu nodded, trusting her judgment, "Are you sure she died at that time, 11 years ago?"

Xie You had obviously recalled it many times without hesitation: "Of course I didn't have the chance to see the corpse, but that incident was known to almost everyone at the time, so it can't be fake."

"Is it possible?" Shen Mu's eyes also became darker, "Is it related to the Suspended Life game? For example, someone cleared the level and revived her?"

Shen Mu's first reaction was whether she might have been a player of the Hanging Life game 11 years ago, but the rules clearly stipulate that players who successfully leave the Hanging Life game will not be recruited into the game again.

As for

Is there any possibility that there will be a problem with the rules... Since everyone can't go back, this possibility is no longer zero.But when there is no evidence that the players who leave are possible, Shen Mu will not doubt the rules casually. Whenever he encounters a problem, he suspects that there are bugs in the rules, which will affect people's normal judgment and even miss many opportunities to win.

Moreover, Lu Yuling was too young at that time, not to mention that the body in the Xuanming game is a projection of the real body. If a person is dead in reality, it is impossible to play the game again.So Shen Mu originally preferred that Lu Yuling was resurrected, rather than having any direct involvement with the game.

Unexpectedly, Xie You shook his head: "No, the Hanging Life game does not have the ability to revive the dead. I have been paying attention to the news since I came to this game. I met a teammate in the last game, and he also... He has someone who wants to be resurrected, and he got word from an old player."

"The Suspended Life game cannot revive people who have been dead for more than seven days." Xie You looked into Shen Mu's eyes, "If the body is too damaged for people who have been dead for less than seven days, there is no way to resurrect them directly. However, if you want to resurrect People who died within seven days and whose original body can no longer be used are also allowed."

"Could it be...returning the soul from a dead body?" Shen Mu immediately thought of the key point.

"Well. If you want to revive a person who died less than 7 days ago and whose body can no longer be used," Xie You's voice trembled slightly due to the mystery of the topic, "the system will combine some factors, such as age, location, etc. , choose a body that is still usable after not dying for a long time, to help you fulfill your wish."

"Well," Shen Mu suddenly instinctively wanted to ask something, but his mind went blank for a second. At this time, Shen Mu caught another blind spot, so he changed the subject and asked directly, "You just said, Did Lu Yuling and his family die in a car accident?"

"Yes." Xie You nodded, knowing that Shen Mu and she had thought of a problem, "A car accident is not like suffocation, emphatically, sleeping pills or something, a car accident that can kill a person on the spot will definitely cause greater damage to the person's body , Senior also thought about it, if Lu Yuling was resurrected through the Suspended Life game, she should change her body."

"You said just now that you haven't thought of her for many years. It was after she called you Lemon that you thought she looked like Lu Yuling?" Shen Mu directly buttoned the bed sheet lightly.

"It's like this." Xie You's eyes fell on Shen Mu's hands and paused for two seconds, then looked away, with a little uncertainty in his eyes, "I'm really not very sure about this, after all, so many years have passed , I also wonder if it is because I subconsciously 'convince' myself that they look alike, and give myself a psychological hint before I feel like them."

"However, how do I look at it now... I really look alike." Speaking of this, Xie You also laughed.

"Could it be like this?" Shen Mu held his chin with the middle finger of his right hand, "When the system chose to resurrect the dead, there happened to be a corpse that looked like Lu Yuling, and it was Esme No. 5, because it looked like Lu Yuling. , the system gave priority to this one?"

"Actually, there is another possibility," Shen Mu continued with a smile, "Since there is a life-sustaining game, there may also be other surreal powers. If your friend really died at the beginning, maybe there is something specially for the dead. What kind of "life extension game" is prepared by people, and those who complete it can be resurrected from the dead, and so on."

Seeing Xie You frowning slightly and thinking seriously, Shen Mu went on to say: "However, this kind of thinking is fanciful, although the possibility is not impossible, but there is a feeling of tampering with the topic to make a fool of it, even if there is such a possibility... ..."

"I know, you can't leave everything to the unknown." Xie You's brows relaxed, and he stopped worrying about this, but caught another layer of information that Shen Mu said, "Senior, you just said, 'If my friend Really dead', you don't think she's dead... do you?"

"Yes." Shen Mu said bluntly, "Although I don't have any evidence and I haven't clarified it yet, I have a vague feeling... This matter may not have anything to do with surreal power. Let's discuss it later. There is no way to draw a direct conclusion."

"Yeah." Finally finished talking about No. 5, Xie You's expression relaxed a lot, "Thank you senior for coming to listen to me today. In fact, I didn't cause Yuling's death back then, and it's been so long I should have been excited or happy to see an old friend who came back from the dead, but I don’t know why I was scared, I always feel that after seeing her today..." Xie You recalled No. 5's flawless smile, and rubbed against her and himself The soft words when they passed by, "The feeling she gave me made me feel dangerous and uneasy, maybe too much time has passed...or..."

Xie You's voice became softer and softer, like a feather: "...Maybe, I never knew her."

"But it will be much better after you say it." Xie You's voice became brisk again, and he thanked again, "Thank you, senior, for listening to me for so long, and there is no problem. I was scared to death. Speaking of senior, what did you think about what you said on the 12th today?"

Discussion of content related to this game is prohibited, but other matters about the overall game of Suspense that have nothing to do with this game can still be discussed. Xie You obviously refers to these.Shen Mu thought for a while and said: "Assuming that what No. 12 said is completely true and not exaggerated, then this game is at least the No.11 game he played. I am more concerned about the variables in the fifth game he said."
