After the retired judge enters the escape game

"Let's go, that looks like a cat spirit of some years, much harder to deal with than most ghosts."

Qi Wuguo and Duan Li went out, but found that Huang Meiling didn't keep up.He turned his head and saw that she stayed where she was, with a dazed look on her face, not knowing what she was thinking.

Qi Wuguo asked: "Aren't you coming?"

Huang Meiling shook her head: "I, I'm a little scared."

Qi Wuguo smiled, and said: "I advise you to come along, the cat spirit is haunted by ghosts, and it is not impossible to kill the carbine."

Thinking of Zhu Ran's appearance just now, Huang Meiling shook her shoulders, but still gritted her teeth and followed.

Several people went directly to the outside of the ward area and searched carefully under the corresponding windows, but they found nothing.

Huang Meiling asked: "Well, is Zhu Ran possessed by a ghost, or is he pretending to be a player and sneaking into us?"

"It's hard to say." Qi Wuguo said, "But judging from the silent character appearing on the casting screen at the very beginning of the game, it's not accidental."

Huang Meiling was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"A cat can't talk, even if it dies and becomes a cat spirit, it can't talk."

Qi Wuguo rubbed his chin: "But the cause of this cat spirit is not that simple."

Animals rarely linger in the yang world after death.The reason is simple. Animals are mostly simple-minded. Unlike humans, there are always too many things that cannot be let go or desired.

After animals die, they usually go directly to reincarnation.

Occasionally, there were animals that could not let go of their owners and stayed in the human world, but most of them stayed with their owners for a period of time, and they would let go as their owners forgot.

Qi Wuguo asked, "Duan Li, have you seen animal spirits?"

Duan Li was concentrating on looking at the rune on the back of Qi Wuguo's neck. He didn't care too much about the runaway cat spirit, because the level boss had already appeared, and the next thing would be easy to handle.

Kill it, pass the level.

Duan Li's logic is very simple, he is more concerned about the relationship between Qi Wuguo and the underworld.

This is also the reason why Qi Wuguo was reminded to take off the earrings just now, but judging from the current situation, after Qi Wuguo took off the earrings, it seems that there is not much difference.

Except for a better understanding of another world, neither his personality nor his aura has changed in any way.

Hearing Qi Wuguo's question, he was slightly taken aback, and then said: "I've seen people who abused cats, and they were entangled by cat spirits. But those cat spirits formed enough because of the large number of cat spirits." A grievance that threatens people."

Qi Wuguo said: "In this world now, oh, even the spirits of animals will be resentful. But it's quite normal. Human beings are the spirits of all things, and the souls are much stronger than animals. If it's not for the large number, it can't affect them. people."

Huang Meiling was at a loss as she listened beside her, and felt more and more that the two were unpredictable. She chose to keep her mouth shut and not look for a sense of presence in the big guy's conversation.

Duan Li squatted down and took out a pen from the inner pocket of his clothes.

He raised his pen and drew on the ground, and several dark footprints appeared on the ground.

It was a string of footprints like plum blossoms, small and arranged in a straight line.

"It's a cat." Qi Wuguo said, "It seems that from the very beginning, the player Zhu Ran never existed. He has always been a cat."

Duan Li nodded: "Cats are good at hiding their breath, even if they become spirits."

Qi Wuguo said, "That's why you didn't notice anything strange about Zhu Ran?"

"En." Duan Li raised his hand to touch the black footprint, and the footprint immediately turned into mist and lingered on his fingertips.

He stood up and put his hand in front of Qi Wuguo's eyes.

Qi Wuguo lowered his head and sniffed, and said, "There is a lot of resentment. Could it be that this cat spirit is a collection of many cat spirits like you have seen before?"

Duan Li shook his head: "It's not like, judging from its shape, there should be only one cat."

Hearing this, Qi Wuguo suddenly asked again: "What happened to that cat abuser?"

Duan Li said: "I don't know, the Duan family has an ancestor's precept, not to drive out ghosts for evildoers."

Qi Wuguo smiled after hearing this: "Your family is quite principled."

After finishing speaking, he changed the subject again: "If there is only one cat, then it will linger, and there are other reasons for becoming a vengeful spirit."

"Let's find the cat first."

Duan Li's thinking is still very simple, find the cat spirit, force him out, and pass the level.

Qi Wuguo said: "I know where the cat spirit is, but I guess it's not convenient to catch it. After all, humans are not as flexible as cats."

"You mean, in the crack?" Duan Li thought quickly.

"Cats are creatures that like to drill into all kinds of narrow places. Judging from the cracks that run through the main line of the game, this cat probably got stuck in a crack."

Huang Meiling was dumbfounded when she heard it, but Qi Wuguo had already connected all the things together and deduced the main line after seeing a dead cat in the box.

Judging from the previous situation, Qi Wuguo had already become suspicious of Zhu Ran before opening the box, so he was able to grab Zhu Ran's hand and open his box without Zhu Ran's action.

This proves that Qi Wu had suspected that there was something wrong with Zhu Ran too early, and had thought of a countermeasure.

"If it's there, it's really not safe." Duan Li frowned slightly, "Then what are you going to do?"

Duan Li didn't feel too much pressure against the boss of the previous level, but if he entered the narrow gap to chase the cat, it was a bit difficult to perform in it.

Both he and Qi Wuguo are human beings, not as slender as cats.If you get stuck inside, you can forcefully break through the ghost domain space and get out, but this is not necessary.

Naturally, Qi Wuguo also thought about it in this way. Right now, he hasn't figured out what the essence of this ghost domain space is, so it's not appropriate to startle the snake.

Qi Wuguo said: "This cat is not simple, let's go to Xiaobailou to see the complete background story of the game."

Huang Meiling asked: "Then, the boss won't wake up the entire nursing home again?"

While speaking, several people had already walked to the pool.

Qi Wuguo raised his chin and gestured toward the pool: "You'll know it when you look there."

Huang Meiling looked along and found that the crack was only about a dozen centimeters wide, which was completely different from when it engulfed players and NPCs before.

"How is this going?"

Qi Wuguo put his hand on Duan Li's body, and said with a smile: "He never shows mercy when he strikes. Now the cat spirit is probably injured, and he is hiding inside to heal his wounds. At this time, of course, the door must be closed."

Judging from the current situation, it is not an easy task to get the cat spirit out of the crack.

The good thing is that the level boss is now focused on healing, so he doesn't have any extra energy to reshape the memories of the NPCs in the sanatorium.

If the correct memory cannot be matched, the NPCs in these nursing homes will not wake up. This is the basic rule set by this game.Even the level boss cannot be easily changed, once violated, it will lead to the collapse of the small space of the ghost domain.

Duan Li took a look at Qi Wuguo, and found that the other party was really good at using the rules in the small space of the ghost domain to put the game boss in a difficult situation, and in the end he could only give a clearance judgment.

Fighting without blood, probably referring to people like Qi Wuguo.

Duan Li felt even more curious in his heart, if Qi Wuguo had been a messenger of the underworld, what kind of position would he have taken on at that time.

And why did he give up all his merits as an underworld messenger and choose to be reincarnated as an ordinary person.

"It's here, Duan Li."

Qi Wuguo signaled to Duan Li with a very natural expression: "Open the door."

"..." Duan Li was silent for a few seconds, "You are so sure that I got the key."

Qi Wuguo raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said: "That's natural, a person as cautious as you can remember to leave the key to the ward area, how could he forget this place?"

Duan Li glanced at him, and took out a bunch of keys from the flowerpot next to him.

The three of them entered Xiaobailou, Qi Wuguo looked directly at Huang Meiling, and said, "Your previous job was to sort out medical records, right? These materials should all be stored in the same place."

Huang Meiling nodded, and led the two of them to the reference room.

At the entrance of the reference room, password authentication was used. Huang Meiling entered the password according to her previous memory, and the door opened in response.

Several people searched inside, and quickly pieced together the complete background of the research institute.

This is a living body research laboratory devoid of conscience, they tricked many patients into it under the pretext of treating mental diseases.

It was a troubled time at that time, and most families could only struggle to survive. Naturally, there was no extra energy and money to use for the treatment of mental illness.

People who entered this institute became mice, used to conduct various in vivo experiments, and were eventually dissected into specimens.

Seeing this, Huang Meiling finally couldn't help asking, "What's the matter with that cat?"

Qi Wuguo flipped through the file in his hand, and there happened to be an old photo on it.The photo is a group photo with the staff of the institute when the military came to inspect the institute.

He clicked on the photo and said, "Look here."

In the corner of the photo, a cat was photographed.

Duan Li said: "How did this cat die in the crack?"

Qi Wuguo put the file back and said, "Have you ever heard a saying that curiosity killed the cat?"

"What do you mean?" Duan Li felt a little unbelievable.

"This cat must have lived for quite some years, and it is almost a mature cat. It probably stayed in the institute when it saw that the food was good. It has intelligence, but it can't control its instincts. Maybe it's aware of the small What happened in the White House."

"Out of curiosity, it wanted to go in and take a look." Qi Wuguo looked at the chilling experimental records in front of him, and smiled ironically, "How can a research building that is just doing such insane activities easily let other workers things go in."

"Even if it's a cat, maybe one day, the cat found a crack and wanted to sneak in to have a look, but unexpectedly got stuck in the crack."

Qi Wuguo said: "A cat that is about to become a sperm has nine lives. The death process is very long and painful. Moreover, during this long death process, it is constantly being killed by those who died tragically in live experiments. Infested by resentful spirits."

Duan Li said: "So you said that cat spirit is not that simple."

"Well, cat spirits who have mixed with countless grievances, if they want to pass the level, they must be separated first."
