Chapter 59: Murderous Intent

  Lian Xi hadn't reacted yet, and in his mind, he kept replaying the words "Lian Xi! I like you!" spoken by Ying. Should this be considered a confession? But it seemed more like a last testament before death. Ying had indeed made up his mind to die, but even if he died, he didn't want to leave any regrets...

  Ying's back disappeared at the intersection, and Lian Xi suddenly shouted "No! Don't... Ying!" without any response. Lian Xi lost her balance and fell to the ground, covering her head and crying bitterly.

  Jing Ya didn't dare to believe all of this, although the shadow had shouted out Ling Xi's name before passing out. No matter what, no matter if the shadow liked him or not, or if he already had someone in his heart, he just didn't want the shadow to die.

  Lian Xi looked despairingly at the intersection in front of her, Ying didn't say a word, was it proof that he had already... Lian Xi thought back to all the memories she had made with Ying since they met, tears streaming down her face and falling to the ground...

  From the initial disgust with Ying, to the recent reevaluation of Ying, from Ying's extreme coldness to the third game where he didn't hesitate to kill... and so on!

  Murder! Lian Xi once again went through the memories, thinking about what was wrong. Due to excessive grief, Lian Xi's brain had lost its former calmness and clarity. She searched repeatedly...

  What's wrong? This feeling is so strong, I must have overlooked something! What is it?

  Jing Ya was already crying uncontrollably, Lian Xi didn't have the heart to comfort her, he just silently sighed in his heart, thinking that when he first played the game, wasn't he also like this, very afraid, very terrified, and it's normal to cry...

  At this moment, Lan Yu and others have also reached the end of the path on the left, which is a dead end. Qiao Jia panicked for a moment, then grabbed Lan Yu's hand and turned back to run again, speeding up their pace...

  "This is wrong, we can't delay any longer! If not, we really won't be able to catch up with them! You two stop dawdling!" Qiao Jia didn't turn her head back, but the two new players understood that she was referring to them. For the sake of survival, they didn't argue with Qiao Jia and instead closely followed behind her...

  "I'm sure Lian Xi and the others must have taken this road!" Lan Yu's tone was very certain. Lan Yu didn't know what was wrong with himself, he felt that he could be 100% sure that Lian Xi and Ying had definitely passed through this fork in the road.

  "So which path are we going to choose next?" Qiao Jia was exceptionally tense, because she knew in her heart that if they made another wrong choice, they would definitely not be able to catch up with Lian Xi and the others...

  "Although we've turned right more times... it shouldn't be a right turn again, but the passage after the last right turn is very long, so it's contradictory, feeling that going straight is unlikely, but turning right also seems impossible..."

  "Let's just go straight then!"

  "Did you find anything, Qiao Jia?"

  "I just feel like we've been turning all the time, roughly calculated that we turned right three times and left once, continuing to turn right may bring us back to where we started..."

  Lan Yu silently stretched out a finger, drawing on the palm of his other hand, turning right, left, right, right, and then arrived at the three forks. If he turned right again...

  "Qiao Jia, what you said is very likely. Calculating it this way, the road on the right indeed goes in the direction of the starting point. Let's take the middle one!"

  Ling Yu finally remembered, every time someone died, that person would let out an extremely painful scream! But Ying didn't, was it because of his special identity? Or did he not fear death? Or... the ghost didn't give him time to scream? No, it shouldn't be! So Ying very likely didn't die!

  But if he really didn't die, why didn't he send a signal after turning? Doesn't he know that this would make Lian Xi worried and scared?

  Lian Yu became more and more convinced of his reasoning - Ying hadn't died! Lian Yu ruled out the possibility of various outcomes, could it be that he had just said "Don't pity me! I like you!" and now was too embarrassed to come out? Thinking of this, Lian Yu smiled foolishly.

  Can't help but say that this girl's crying and laughing is really silly and cute. Ling Xi's smile actually scared Jing Quan, Ying had just died, and Ling Xi was smiling so foolishly, could she have gone mad?!

  If Ling Yu really went crazy, what should she do? Shouldn't she find another way to get out of this situation? At this moment, Jing Ya didn't have the mood to care about Ying anymore, but was more concerned with her own life and death. She didn't want to wait for death...

  Jing Ya was about to quietly get up and leave when Lian Xi suddenly spoke up, "Jing Ya, let's go back!"

  "What did you say? Past? Gone where?"

  Lian Yu walked over, one hand grasping Jing Ya's arm, the other pointing to the bend at the intersection "Let's turn around!" After saying that, she pulled Jing Ya towards the intersection with force.

  "Are you crazy?! Let me go! You let me go......" Jingya struggled desperately, crying out loudly, "The shadow has passed and there's no more movement, I'm afraid it's already too late, what are you doing pulling me over now?"

  Lian Yu didn't respond, but in fact Lian Yu's nerves were extremely tense. After all, everything was just her own speculation. What if she really died after turning around...

  "Don't pity me! Let me go! If you want to die, go die yourself! Why drag me down with you!"

  Relying on Lian Yu's power, Jing Ya can no longer be pulled. "Jing Ya, I'm telling you very seriously, I haven't gone mad, I'm normal, I think Ying is not dead! So I want to verify my idea!"

  Jing Ya thought that it must have been Ying's death that gave Lian Xi a huge shock, which is why she was acting like this. After all, no one with a mental illness would say they were sick, and no madman would admit to being abnormal.

  Although Jing Ya had long regarded Lian Xi as a competitor, an enemy, at this moment she didn't want to be killed by Lian Xi and could only try to placate her, to persuade her "Lian Xi, calm down, don't get excited for now, I know that the death of Shuang might have been a huge blow to you, it's hard for you to accept it for the time being..."

  "He's not dead...... He's not dead......" Lian Yu said coldly, her tone sending Jing Ya's scalp tingling and her heart racing with fear.

  "Yes, he didn't die, but after he left, there was no news from him anymore. It's clear that it's very dangerous over there, so let's not go. Since we know it's a one-way trip and going would be suicidal, why bother? You think so too?" Jingyao's tone had softened significantly compared to earlier.

  She just wanted to stabilize Lian Xi's emotions as much as possible, and then find an opportunity to escape. If the situation was already out of control, Jingyao didn't mind killing Lian Xi...

  Lian Jingya was shocked by her own thoughts, how could she have such an idea, to kill someone... This is something that she had never dared to think about before, and even hearing it would make her afraid. Now, she actually thought of doing it...

  To survive, anything can be done naturally, and the idea of this also happens to be because of the intersection in front of me, which is indeed a good place to kill...
