Strange story player

September 3rd, noon, overcast.

Qin Manjiang did not work today, but was collecting some rumors about Xiajiang Village.

Tomorrow is Lao Qin's death anniversary, and it is also the day he and Qin Chengyi agreed to go to Mianshan Mental Hospital to visit him.

She must know something.

Therefore, Qin Manjiang planned to make preparations early.

"Mr. Qin, it's time to eat!"

"Woof!"

The girl's voice sounded first, and then the little yellow dog Xiaobai's bark.

She came the night before yesterday. After a busy day yesterday, she was completely settled today.

Perhaps in order to repay Qin Manjiang's kindness for temporarily not collecting rent, she volunteered to take care of the food for these two days. Of course, it couldn't be a big meal, it was all delicious home-cooked dishes.

"coming."

Qin Manjiang responded.

After putting away his mobile phone, he went to the living room. Seeing the busy girls in aprons, Qin Manjiang felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Her name is Mi Qiao, and she is not a native of Fucheng. According to her own words, she came to Fucheng this time because of sudden work arrangements.

She didn't mean what she said, but everyone has their own secrets, and Qin Manjiang was not interested in other people's secrets.

The two of them didn't talk much, but they didn't feel awkward eating separately. Mi Qiao, on the other hand, always looked a little preoccupied.

"What is your job?" Qin Manjiang asked casually.

"Accountant..." Mi Qiao replied in a low voice.

"Oh." Qin Manjiang nodded. The accountant suddenly went on a business trip, maybe to reconcile the accounts of the cooperative company.

He stopped talking, and he and Mi Qiao ate their meal in silence.

Suddenly, Qin Manjiang frowned slightly.

He stood up and said, "Sorry, I have to go to the toilet."

Qin Manjiang quickened his pace and walked to the bathroom.

Mi Qiao looked at his back and made no move.

The whole world seemed to be soaked in water, and everything around him was twisting strangely.

The feeling of suffocation...the feeling of suffocation like drowning appeared again.

The game is about to begin again.

Qin Manjiang endured the severe discomfort, opened the toilet door, took out his mobile phone, and immediately clicked on the interface of the Kaitan game.

[Game released, players gathered]

[Welcome to the world of ghost stories]

Lines of red fonts appeared on the screen. Sweat dripped from Qin Manjiang's forehead. Even with his standard physique, he couldn't suppress his breathing and his body was extremely tired.

He had to put one hand on the wall, hold the phone in the other hand, and look at the screen.

At this moment, there were many people who felt the same as Qin Manjiang.

The boss of the company's expression changed and he hurriedly terminated the temporary meeting at noon.

The clerk who was chatting with his friend turned pale. Under his friend's concern and inquiry, he found an excuse and ran away alone.

At the beginning of the school year, the tired teacher who had just finished his work was preparing to take a break and close his eyes for a while. At this moment, he had to brace himself up and avoid his colleagues.

…

[Multiplayer mode, on]

A line of scarlet font appeared.

All players stared at the screen nervously, silently praying that they would not be selected.

[Strange Stories: Aging Me]

[Recruiting players: Ye Zi]

[Recruiting Players: Dusk in Deep Valley]

[Recruiting Players: March]

[Recruiting Players: Xiaotian]

[Recruiting players: soup dumplings]

[Recruit players: players]

Qin Manjiang glanced at the name. This time, he was not there.

However, he saw a code name belonging to the top ten seats, the third seat - Player.

Players who were also selected by the multiplayer mode Kaitan were a little desperate, but after seeing the last codename appear, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

With ten seats available, the survival rate will greatly increase!

But... what kind of person is that player?

Although he is in such a high-profile position in the third seat, why...no one ever talks about him?

It's like no one knows him at all.

The selected player recalled things related to the player, and some doubts arose in his heart.

Just like last time, everything is not over. After the candidates for the multiplayer mode are confirmed, the scarlet text blends into the black background.

As if emerging from the bottomless abyss, another new line of scarlet text appeared.

[Challenge mode, open]

When everyone saw these words, their hearts skipped a beat.

Challenge mode... Challenge mode appears twice in a row.

Could it be that there is an unlucky person in the Kaitan game?

Challenge mode does not appear often. After all, its existence is a multiplayer mode where players have been killed in groups before. There are not many such weird stories.

Therefore, often the two multiplayer modes are played together.

Similar to the last round, multiplayer mode, challenge mode, and even exploration mode all appeared together. Generally speaking, it rarely happens once a year.

But this time, challenge mode appears again.

[Strange Stories: Butterfly Island]

[Recruiting Players: Wang Wanwan]

[Recruiting Players: Youyu]

[Recruiting Players: Coffee Machine]

[Recruiting Players: Wool Master]

[Recruiting Players: Abyss]

[Omen Player: Doctor]

The scarlet names appeared one after another. When he saw the word abyss appearing, Qin Manjiang frowned. Challenge mode?

He didn't have any objections to being selected consecutively, but... it was a bit too fast to go directly to the difficulty level and be assigned to the challenge mode?

The other players who are about to go with Qin Manjiang this time all have ugly faces. Unlike Qin Manjiang, although the old players don’t know much about this Butterfly Island,... the players who have participated in Butterfly Island make them very... familiar.

It is precisely because that person was buried on Butterfly Island that they are so terrified now.

The words...slowly disappeared.

The call-up ended, and this time, there was no third game.

Qin Manjiang knew that there would be information next, and sure enough, the screen jumped back to Abyss's personal interface.

A line of eye-catching red text popped up.

This is unique information that only those who are about to enter the Kaidan game can see.

[Strange Stories: Butterfly Island]

[Opening statement: Like bubbles, they break when touched. 】

【Flowers are lovely when they bloom. 】

[Snow, before it falls to the ground, makes people pity. 】

【I want to remember these looks. 】

【Every. 】

The scarlet words were imprinted into Qin Manjiang's mind one by one. The strange thing was...compared to the opening of Xianyang Village, the opening of Butterfly Island seemed extremely brief.

Moreover, the writing is not as weird as Xianyang Village.

But these words actually caused a vague scene to appear in Qin Manjiang's mind, which was... an island.

And... those weird pupils that flashed away!

His heart suddenly palpitated, Qin Manjiang subconsciously raised his head and looked in a certain direction.

How can it be?

Did you feel a kind of gaze before you even reached the area where Butterfly Island is located?

This is simply...

He took a deep breath and continued to look at the phone screen.

The opening remarks ended and the words disappeared one by one.

Immediately afterwards, the last text appeared——

[Tomorrow at five o'clock in the afternoon. 】

[Arrived at Bailu Bay on time and headed to Butterfly Island. 】

[There is no game time limit. You cannot leave the island until you have solved the strange story of Butterfly Island. 】

[Anyone who is late will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Those who leave the island will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Those who die will be deemed to have failed the game]

[Game failed, erased]

[Wish you good luck, Kaitan player]

The screen disappeared completely, and the interface returned to the weird smiley face pattern.

Qin Manjiang washed his face with water and was about to open the door when he heard a knock on the door.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk-"

Mi Qiao called softly from outside: "Mr. Qin...are you okay?"

Thank you to all the book friends for your secondary IDs, haha. Book friends who want to have secondary roles can join the group. I will choose some of the more normal names to use, thank you all!
