Strange story player

The lights come on.

The sound of the piano also stopped suddenly.

Lian Yan bowed and, wearing a white suit, he opened his arms and said with an elegant smile: "Welcome to my banquet."

Applause suddenly broke out.

Cheers, laughter, boos... the guests gave the host a lot of face.

The music started playing again, this time the hotel band was playing, and while they were drinking and drinking, the banquet began.

"Eh...Eh?"

Hua bumped Qin Manjiang lightly and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with you?"

Qin Manjiang looked away and smiled: "It's okay, I was just thinking that he is indeed handsome."

Among the men Qin Manjiang had seen, only Lian Yan could compare with Mei Sijun. Both of them were extremely handsome.

It's just that Mei Sijun took "handsomeness" to the extreme, and this consecutive word is "handsome".

Hua glanced at Qin Manjiang strangely and said, "Okay, find someone quickly...it might be too late in a while."

However, what Hua Hua didn't expect was that the host of the banquet, the violinist Lian Yan, actually took the initiative to approach her with a wine glass!

what's the situation?

Hua was a person from twenty years ago. Although Lian Yan is also a player in Moon City [Tongjie], in a sense, he is also a person who "resurrected from the dead". Who is the current player in [Moon City]? It's not the same batch, Qin Manjiang can't be sure at all.

Forget about these people.

Hua doesn't even know who Lian Yan is.

Therefore, when Lian Yan took the initiative to walk towards him, Hua was nervous and felt a little strange. Could it be that the violinist discovered that the two of them were "uninvited guests"?

Who would have thought... Lian Yan stopped in front of Qin Manjiang.

He poured half a glass of wine for Qin Manjiang with his own hands and handed it to him with a smile.

"Long time no see, Mr. Qin."

Hua's eyes widened... What... what happened?

Does this Yuecheng violinist know Qin Manjiang?

impossible?

Sora has never said such a thing, and even Sora doesn't know who this violinist is...

Where did they meet?

Qin Manjiang has spent his whole life in Fucheng. Has this violinist ever performed in Fucheng?

Regardless of the thoughts in Hua's mind, Qin Manjiang smiled and took the goblet from Lian Yan's hand, and the two touched it lightly.

"Miss, can I have a private chat with Mr. Qin?"

Lian Yan smiled, and Hua's heart beat violently, and a few veins popped out beside her eyes uncontrollably. She quickly turned her head and forcibly suppressed the urge to eat people.

"Of course...I'm sorry...I'll go to the bathroom first..."

The flowers left in a hurry.

Her heart was beating very fast, and these words gave her a terrible appetite! If she didn't leave, she was afraid that she would "eat" him on the spot.

"Formal introduction, my name is Lian Yan, from Yuecheng." Lian Yan stretched out his hand and introduced himself to Qin Manjiang.

Qin Manjiang stretched out his hand to shake his hand and replied: "Qin Manjiang, from Fucheng."

Qin Manjiang still felt a little weird until he had physical contact with Lian Yan.

A person trapped in the Kaidan game is no longer even a player, and there is no way to leave [Ping An Hospital] using the [clearance] procedure.

So... as an "NPC", how did Lian Yan return to the real world?

Qin Manjiang's eyes did not hide his curiosity at all.

Lian Yan seemed to know what Qin Manjiang was thinking. He waved without looking back, and a petite girl slowly came to him.

"Remember her, right? Your friend, Xinxin."

Lian Yan said.

Qin Manjiang immediately averted his eyes, fearing that he would not be able to restrain his urge to "eat" an acquaintance.

However, the strange thing was that Xinxin was even close to him, and he could smell the perfume on Xinxin, but he still didn't have any appetite?

What's even stranger is Xinxin's attitude.

Her eyes were dull, and she stood dullly beside Qin Manjiang and Lian Yan. She said nothing and only watched Qin Manjiang quietly.

Qin Manjiang tried to slowly turn around and look at Xinxin.

Sure enough... her "appetite" didn't respond to her.

Could it be...

"Is Xinxin dead?" Qin Manjiang looked at Lian Yan and asked in a low voice.

Lian Yan shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't understand either. When I found her, she was hiding in the photo. When I returned to the real world with the photo, she came out like this."

He looked at Xinxin: "Like a soulless doll."

Just when Qin Manjiang was about to continue asking something, Lian Yan suddenly grabbed Qin Manjiang's wrist.

His movements were so fast that Qin Manjiang didn't even have time to dodge.

Just when Qin Manjiang thought he was going to attack, he heard Lian Yan whisper: "Mr. Qin, you are not suitable to stay here anymore, please come with me."

Qin Manjiang stopped struggling. This was the second person to say this to him tonight.

Qin Manjiang glanced in the direction of Mi Qiao, who happened to be looking at him too.

Mi Qiao looked away after seeing him being pulled in another direction by Lian Yan.

"Why should I believe you?"

Qin Manjiang asked.

"Just think of it as... my repayment," Lian Yan smiled, "The way you cleared [Safety Hospital] gave me new ideas, so..."

"Tonight is the hunting ground in Yuecheng. You are a player in Fucheng. I don't recommend that you take a trip into this muddy water."

Two big men, one of whom is the host of this banquet, he is enough to attract attention.

Now the host of this banquet pulled a young man whom "everyone" didn't know and walked aside, which attracted most of the attention.

Lian Yan seemed to realize this quickly.

But he doesn't mind, because people here will die in a reasonable way, and no one can let the news spread.

The key is to send his "benefactor" away.

At least let him escape this massacre.

However, the two of them had just reached the hotel door.

But he saw the hotel door slamming shut with a "clang" sound.

Moonlight, lights, all light seemed to be completely extracted by some kind of instrument at this moment.

"ah!!!!!"

A piercing scream suddenly sounded.

The woman's cry sent chills to the heart.

In the darkness, more and more frightened screams appeared.

"Ah!!! What is this?"

"let me out!"

"Turn on the lights! Turn on the lights quickly!"

"No...my body...save..."

The screams were blood-curdling.

The entire hall was filled with the heartbreaking sounds of chewing and tearing flesh.

Wait...Is this still the lobby of the Wollai Hotel?

Qin Manjiang realized that the ground beneath his feet seemed to have some strange bulges.

After darkness fell, the group of people in the banquet hall seemed to be in another place instantly?

This banquet may be completely different from what Sora and the others knew...

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qin, I couldn't send you out in time."

Lian Yan's voice sounded full of apology, as if he really wanted Qin Manjiang to leave the banquet.

Before Qin Manjiang could answer, Lian Yan continued:

"Now, I can only temporarily aggrieve you and abide by the rules of the game in Shimoyuki City."

There was suppressed excitement and restlessness in his voice, as if he was speaking to Qin Manjiang, and also seemed to be mumbling to himself:

"The theme of this party is... killing."
