Chapter 245 Three Days and Two Nights

On April 14, Qis went to Redan Shen Casino.

He did not go there to gamble, but to kill people.

Redan Shen Casino has a long history. Since the establishment of the Federation, it has stood in the gray area. It has forces in both the black and white worlds and all over the world. It has long maintained a tacit peace with the Federation. As long as it does not play too much, it will not be visited by the Public Security Bureau.

As a neutral force between the federal government and the resistance organization, it really treats the Federal Charter as a fart. It dares to guarantee life and death bets and dares to collect such bets. It is normal for a person to die and a body to be thrown away.

Qis wanted to kill another person as soon as he came out of the game and found that he had lost his rich perception of the world. Try to see if he can stimulate his deep talents like ten years ago.

He has no interest in dealing with corpses and destroying traces for the time being. It is a good choice to borrow Redan Shen’s venue and frame Redan Shen for human life.

Qi Si held the compass he had taken out from the bottom of the box, put his hands in his pockets, and like an idle vagrant, he wandered loosely into the alley behind the casino and hid in a surveillance blind spot.

The streets and alleys that were used to nightlife became deserted during the day, and Qi Si soon met a lone gambler who had lost all his capital and was driven out.

He was a man in his forties or fifties, hunched over, with dull eyes, a walking corpse.

Killing such a person is the least likely to cause serious consequences.

On the one hand, it was common for him to stay at the casino for ten days or half a month without going home. It would take a long time for his family to find out if he was missing. By then, the best time for investigation had long passed, and the body might have been easily disposed of by Rui Danshen.

On the other hand, he might have been deserted by his relatives and friends because he had emptied his family's assets. Even if his family found out that he was dead, they generally would not find out the real culprit. In most cases, they would be relieved that the loss was stopped in time.

Of course, it is not certain whether such a person has a family or not. He may just be a widower who lives alone. Hundreds of thousands of such homeless people disappear in the city every year. The combined cost of investigation is too high, so it is better to give up.

Even if it is really unlucky, someone discovers this murder case and is bored to investigate it in depth, the probability of finding Qi Si is extremely low.

Motiveless murder is the most difficult to detect. No matter which aspect is investigated, Qi Si does not exist in the social relationship of the deceased.

In short, Qi Si successfully led the target into the blind spot of the surveillance with a pack of cigarettes, and when he was lighting a cigarette and telling his tragic past, he stabbed the needle tip of the compass into his carotid artery.

After struggling for a while, the target ended his miserable and failed life. Qi Si released his hand covering the target's mouth and found that he did not have any special feelings.

The colors of the world in front of him were still as thin as fog, and the touch of his fingertips and the sound he heard were still like a thin film between him and him.

It seems that some methods can only be used once, and the negative effects imposed by the weird game are not so easy to remove.

Qi Si did not feel too sad or painful about this, but he still felt a little disappointed and irritated.

He took off the white shirt splattered with blood, used it as a rag, wiped all the blood-stained places on his body, then took out a new set of white shirts from his backpack and put them on, and put the dirty compass and shirt in.

He walked out of the alley with the same pace as when he came, and saw a familiar figure coming out of the casino.

The thin body was covered with a gray T-shirt and had a face that belonged to a drug addict. He looked like the son of the breakfast shop owner.

Did he see anything? Should he kill to silence him? This is a question worth studying.

Qi Si touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

…

On the morning of April 15, the Jiuzhou Guild issued an initiative in the forum, which roughly called on players to actively participate in the exploration and research of the dungeon, actively join or establish a guild, and unite and cooperate.

Some theoretical players interpreted it as "Jiuzhou is showing a friendly attitude to the newly established Unnamed Guild"; some players even believed that the Unnamed Guild was a branch of Jiuzhou, and those who understand it all understand it, and it cannot be said explicitly.

In the afternoon, a high-level account certified as "Vice President of Tingfeng Guild" forwarded Jiuzhou's initiative.

Players all knew that Jiuzhou and Tingfeng Guilds had an ambiguous relationship, so there was not much discussion about it.

Qis was in the suburban studio early in the morning.

He spent a full six hours, with "Frog and Human Body Splicing Art" as the research topic, and tinkered with a specimen that was horrible for normal people.

The surface of the corpse was densely covered with frogs of various colors. From a distance, it looked like a bunch of wheat ears full of seeds. The slightest breeze would shake lightly and flexibly, enough to drive people with trypophobia crazy.

Qis put the new work together with the previous "fishman" specimen as a commemoration of the dungeon experience.

He cleaned the knife and cleaned the tool table. Suddenly, he felt a little bored and wanted to try stabbing himself.

So, he took out the newly bought paper cutter from the game space and stabbed his left arm.

Due to its sharpness, the stab was not deep, but a lot of blood flowed, and a few drops fell on the phone screen.

Qi Si wiped the phone screen and tied his sleeve around the wound. The bleeding stopped in a short while.

It seems that the negative effect of [Undead] being unable to heal itself will not take effect in reality, which is good news in a sense.

As for further attempts, such as cutting off his own kidneys and roasting them, Qi Si has no plans in this regard for the time being.

He put the paper cutter back into the game space, returned home, and sent a text message to Lin Chen:

[Tomorrow at 2 pm, team up to match the new dungeon. Decide on a pseudonym as soon as possible, and it is best to change your appearance. Also, don't broadcast live in the future. ]

…

April 16, 2 pm, Jiangcheng University.

Lin Chen lay on the narrow bed in the dormitory, closed his eyes, and entered the game space.

He had seen the discussion about "Siqi" in the forum before, and he dug deeper into the words of the players, and soon learned that:

In the "Hopeless Sea" dungeon, Qi Si and Chang Xu met and reached a cooperation. In the end, Qi Si almost killed Chang Xu under the control of the puppeteer.

In the "Red Maple Leaf Boarding School" dungeon, the two met again and cooperated, and they acted familiar and tacit.

No one has uploaded the recordings of the two dungeons. As for what happened in the dungeons, we can only piece together the general situation based on the retelling of the players who watched the live broadcast.

But Lin Chen still realized that the facts might be different from what he initially thought.

Chang Xu might not be a massacre player, and he might even be a good person; in "Rose Manor", he believed Qi Si's words and misunderstood him.

However, Qi Si did not deliberately conceal the matter of the "Hopeless Sea" dungeon in his words, and he should not have deliberately deceived him. What is the situation?

Lin Chen couldn't figure it out, so he called Qi Si, but Qi Si didn't answer after six calls.

He considered and sent a few text messages, but Qi Si didn't reply either.

Unexpectedly, before he could investigate clearly, Qi Si took the initiative to send him a text message and agreed on the time to form a team to match the dungeon.

Well, some questions should be asked when they meet in person, which is more direct and clear than talking across the air.

The other requirements in the text message are not difficult to understand. Lin Chen knew that both he and Qi Si had been posted on the forum, and they definitely couldn't use their real names and real appearances.

He picked and chose in the mall, and finally spent 50,000 points to buy a prop called [Camera Filter].

[Name: Camera Filter]

[Type: Prop]

[Effect: Slightly adjust the appearance of the player's face based on the original appearance]

[Note: Are you ready to take a photo to deceive? ]

As the name suggests, this prop can adjust the skin color, eye distance, tooth color and other factors of the face like the camera built into the mobile phone, adding some strangeness and distortion to the player's appearance.

After the adjustment, acquaintances can still recognize that it is the original person, but strangers will definitely be confused at first sight.

Lin Chen couldn't afford the props with better effects, so he could only use [Camera Filter].

He adjusted the factors of each dimension to the maximum extent before jumping into the bottomless rabbit hole in front of him.

The electronic voice asked coldly: [You performed well in the last copy, and the live broadcast will get extra push streams. Are you willing to start live broadcasting in this copy? 】

Lin Chen shook his head: "No, I won't open it this time, and I won't open it in the future."

[Default settings have been saved for you]

[Randomly generating a copy...]

[Loading the copy... Loading completed]

...

On the other side, Qi Si lay down on the bed on time, letting his consciousness sink into the darkness.

He opened his eyes on the high-back chair, tilted his head to see his image in the full-length mirror, and his scarlet eyes and mottled blood-stained clothes combined made him look like a ghost crawling out of a haunted house.

The [Scarlet Priest] card had a greater impact on his appearance than the [Human Evil] card. When he was expressionless, he no longer exuded evil as before, but instead revealed a deceptive holiness and compassion.

The white shirt he was originally wearing was stained with a large area of ​​blood, and it was no longer acceptable.

Qi Si spent a thousand points in the mall and bought a red suit to change into, which finally looked better.

In the temple, all matters were carried out in an orderly manner under the rules set by the Sea God's Scepter.

The villagers of Qijia Village have not entered the game yet. They will probably have to wait until the seven-day countdown ends before they will reluctantly match the new dungeon.

The newcomers infected with the insomnia bacteria went through the first dungeon, half of them died, and provided 78,000 points.

Liu Yuhan was alone in a dungeon, a new dungeon, and acted much more radical and violent than before, as if venting some emotions.

In reality, Dong Zixi was wrapped in a white robe and sitting in a fully armed military truck. He was probably participating in an operation as a member of the Libra Church.

Zhang Yiyu's screen went completely black. The soul leaf was still there, indicating that she was still alive, but the signal was cut off somehow.

Well, everyone has a bright future.

Qi Si reached out to touch the scarlet leaf representing Lin Chen.

Lin Chen, dressed in a hospital gown, sat on a high-backed chair in a pure white palace, presenting a frozen picture.

This means that the dungeon has started to match, but it has not been officially loaded yet.

Qi Si did not wait any longer, gathered all the props, put on his backpack, stood up and stepped into the full-length mirror.
