Chapter 8: Suspicion

  Ling Yu and Qiao Jia wanted to confirm once again, or they still had a glimmer of luck, because Xiao Zi would never deceive people...

  They asked everyone who knew Xiaomu, including Xiaomu's most beloved younger brother, and they all said that there was no such person as Xin Xiaomu. Is this what it means to be erased in the game rules?! If you die in a dream, you will be erased from the real world!

  If that's the case, then the "designer" of this game is too formidable, and all of this is just too unbelievable! "How could it be like this?! You killed Lian Xi!"

  "No! It wasn't me... I didn't kill her." Qiao Jia turned and walked away... Lian Xi stood there in a daze. She had used three of her survival points to save Qiao Jia, but Qiao Jia misunderstood that she had killed Xiao Mu and obtained the extra points for the kill. Moreover, even if she had killed "Xiao Mu", at that time Xiao Mu was no longer human anyway.

  Xiao Mu was actually the first one to die, she touched the hidden task and was killed. The old man was the second one.

  Xiao Mu's body became a haunted vessel after his death. This time, the mission will be completed if no one touches the hidden task and dies, allowing everyone to survive.

  Because this time the ghost cannot directly kill the "player", it must wait for the first death to appear and borrow a body before starting the killing. Moreover, this time only the ghost can find the "player" by itself and make physical contact before taking action. After this game - Mo Lianxi used task props to deduct 3 survival points, leaving 13 survival points remaining. Yuan Qiaojia had 7 survival points remaining. Ying had 15 survival points remaining.

  But this time it wasn't because they survived the two hours of game time to complete the task. In fact, they got the final kill points - 3 points.

  "Mom, I'm back!"

  "Qiao Jia, why are you back so late? Your phone was unreachable too. Lian Xi has been waiting for you inside for a long time!"

  "Huh?"

  "What's wrong with you standing there like a fool? They're waiting for you in the living room."

  "Oh." Qiao Jia walked into the living room with a very unwilling face. "What are you doing here? Are you also going to kill me?"

  "Qiao Jia, listen to me, you misunderstood me!"

  "You don't need to say anything more, I've seen everything you've done with my own eyes. I never thought you'd be this kind of person, so selfish. You even harmed your best friend just to get 100 points as soon as possible!"

  "Qiao Jia, I know what you're thinking! I didn't get the final kill points! Have you ever thought that maybe we just survived for two hours and completed the task!"

  "Stop talking! Just leave! I don't want to hear your excuses and explanations. I won't believe you again." Lian Xi's heart skipped a beat as she recalled sacrificing 3 survival points to save Qiao Jia's life, only to be misunderstood by her now.

  Two good friends, one disappeared like a puff of smoke. The other broke up with herself and doubted herself. Lian Xi even had a moment of regret for saving Qiao Jia. If it weren't for Qiao Jia's life hanging by a thread, Lian Xi would never have used that prop, she knew how hard it was to get the points. She didn't want to lose Qiao Jia, nor did she want to lose Xiao Mu, so how could she bring herself to kill Xiao Mu?

  "Listen, Qiao Jia, I don't want to explain anything more. You don't believe me and that's your business. You can doubt me, but I believe that sooner or later you will know that you misunderstood me."

  "Chop." The usually gentle Qiaojia had an unwavering expression "Can you leave my house now?"

  "I just wanted to say that this nightmare is real, and sooner or later I'll have to enter that ghostly realm again. Xiaomu has already disappeared, and I don't want to lose you too. I came here today for two reasons: one, to explain things to you and make you believe me, but it seems like that's impossible now. Two, to discuss with you how to get through the next dream. I don't care if you think of me as a friend, a bad person, a stranger, or even an enemy right now. We both have a common goal: to survive! Get 100 points and forever leave that terrifying realm."

  "This..." "I just want to discuss with you and see if we can find something from the last game." Qiao Jia nodded silently, although she still had some doubts about Lian Xi in her heart, but as Lian Xi said. She wanted to survive.

  Xiao Mu has disappeared, and they all deeply know that Xiao Mu must have died in that "game". Although they don't know how Xiao Mu died, they don't want to die either, nor do they want to be eliminated in the real world. Of course, in Qiao Jia's heart, she has already determined that Lian Xi killed Xiao Mu.

  "Firstly, this time in the dream we saw the game rules, when I first entered there I didn't see the rules, so I didn't know the task conditions for the first time. Through the last game it was told to me that getting the final kill score would get survival points by killing 'Yue', and also triggered two hidden tasks, each task 2 points, the final kill score we don't know specifically now..."

  Before Lian Yu could finish speaking, Qiao Jia retorted, "Huh, how could you not know the final kill score?"

  "I know you don't believe me, but hear me out. Last time I got a total of 9 survival points, and after subtracting the 4 survival points from the hidden task, it was 5 survival points. And that 'Yue' was very easy for me to kill, so I can roughly confirm that the score is used to measure the degree of difficulty in this game. In other words, the higher the score, the greater the difficulty."

  Qiao Jia felt that Lian Xi's words made sense, "But what's the use of just knowing these things?"

  "At least we can know the degree of danger. And both times the game scattered everyone, this time you and I woke up in the same place, who knows if next time we'll be separated or not. But even if we're separated, as soon as I wake up, I'll go find you immediately. Also, I think that person, Shadow, is very strange."

  "I also think that being able to laugh in such a situation is definitely a kind of..."

  "I just don't know if he's still alive. That fog separated us and we have no idea what happened on the other side with Ying and Xiaomu. And why were we forced to separate? Did we touch some hidden task, but we didn't get any points for the hidden task?"
