Day of Imprisonment

#34 - Room 809

“I understand.”

Luo Xi knew that the person sending these messages to Fan Yong must be the administrator, Carrot, who was 'Zhou Xinpeng'.

Moreover, these messages were the 'key' to activate Fan Yong, the backup cleaner.

“I guess it's anger; anger is Fan Yong's activation key,” Wu Rui said at this moment, clearly having carefully considered these words long ago, and only spoke them after being very certain.

Luo Xi nodded after listening, considering it agreement.

Wu Rui was somewhat gleeful.

She had obviously provided Luo Xi with real help, which gave her a very special 'sense of satisfaction', as if she could prove her value through this matter.

Luo Xi, I am useful to you!

This was the subtext Wu Rui wanted to express.

“What about Mao-ge and the others?”

“Upstairs. Right, why is this floor so quiet?” Luo Xi noticed that on the seventh floor, none of the 'neighbors' had come out to watch the excitement. At this moment, besides the few of them, there were no other irrelevant people in the corridor.

“I had Wang Tao tie them all up.” Wu Rui's answer was very fierce.

Initially, some people had come out to watch the excitement, but Wu Rui was afraid that they would cause trouble or attract unknown problems. After all, a murder had occurred here, and a corpse with a blown-out head was lying in the corridor. So, she simply took action to suppress the commotion. Moreover, there were only four households living on the seventh floor: Liu Mao's family of four, Fan Yong and Song Yan's family of four, and the remaining two households.

One household was two elderly people, easy to deal with; the other household was a single woman, even easier.

“Anyway, the rules only restrict me, but Wang Tao, as a 'native', doesn't have this restriction, so I had him do it.” Wu Rui then leaned closer and whispered, “Actually, I also used him to test things out, to see if anything would happen.”

Luo Xi nodded.

This girl was quite scheming.

At this moment, Luo Xi looked at Wu Rui, thought for a moment, and took out a memory card to hand to her.

Wu Rui wasn't surprised. In her opinion, it was perfectly reasonable and normal for Luo Xi to get a memory card.

She took it and stuffed it into her bra.

With the memory card, she felt much more at ease. Even if she died in this checkpoint scene, she could preserve her memories in the next cycle.

“Wang Tao, come here.” Wu Rui waved, and Wang Tao hurriedly trotted over: “Sister Rui!”

Sister Rui?

Luo Xi discovered another special skill of Wu Rui's.

This guy was very good at controlling people, that is, managing people.

“This is Luo Xi, our leader, our supreme commander, our brain.”

“Hello, Brother Luo.” Wang Tao was very sensible.

Luo Xi asked him to describe the details of the killing time at twelve o'clock. This made Wang Tao's face pale, obviously, those memories were the source of his fear, a nightmare he was afraid of recalling.

But the supreme commander asked, so he could only answer honestly.

If only hair could kill people, then logically, no one would know that this matter was related to Zhou Ya. But when he previously questioned Fan Yong and Song Yan, they said in unison that it was Zhou Ya.

“I know, it's Zhou Ya.” Wang Tao said.

“How do you know?”

“I…” Wang Tao suddenly choked. He immediately fell into some kind of memory, but obviously, he himself noticed something was wrong, so he frowned and thought carefully, even starting to scratch his head, his expression becoming increasingly 'ferocious'.

It was that feeling of 'I remember it was clearly like this, but I just can't remember it'.

At this moment, Luo Xi reached out and patted Wang Tao's shoulder, interrupting the other party's painful state.

“It's okay, can't you remember?”

“Yes, it's so strange, I can't remember the details, but I just know that Zhou Ya killed me, and those were Zhou Ya's hairs.”

“Think again, before those hairs appeared, was there anything special?”

“It seems not, everything was pretty normal.”

Luo Xi nodded and didn't continue asking, because he had asked Zhang Butcher the same question before, and the answer he got was the same.

“The corpse in the corridor should also be a Memory Gatherer. Have you searched the body?” Luo Xi looked at Wu Rui again.

The latter nodded.

“No cards were found. After a Memory Gatherer dies, if he has a memory card, then all the cards on his body will disappear. The next cycle will inherit the previous cards. If he dies without a memory card, then cards can be found on the corpse.”

This was another rule about Memory Gatherers.

If no cards are found on a Memory Gatherer after death, then it is very likely that the other party is already a 'pauper' with nothing.

Luo Xi looked at the three people in front of him at this moment.

“Next, I'm going to find the administrator of this scene. Although I already know that according to the rules, he can't directly attack us Memory Gatherers, but anything can happen, so you can choose to go with me or not. But no matter what you choose, Wang Tao, I need to see the cards on your body, and if necessary, they must be requisitioned.”

Luo Xi's words were not a discussion, but a notification.

Going to find Carrot this time was a showdown. If he could increase his chances of winning, Luo Xi wouldn't mind being a robber once.

As for Old Zhang, Luo Xi had already asked before, and the latter had already used it in the previous cycle, but the card content told Luo Xi that it was a [No Meat, No Joy], the effect of which was that after using it, as long as you eat enough meat, then as long as you don't die, no matter how severe the injury, it can be healed within ten minutes.

A very powerful card.

But no matter how powerful it is, once it's used, it's gone.

Hearing Luo Xi's words, Wang Tao clearly showed an unwilling expression, even hiding a trace of anger.

Obviously, if personal interests are touched, it is easy for a person to reveal his true thoughts.

Luo Xi looked at the other party, stretching out his hand.

Wang Tao definitely didn't want to give it. He didn't even want to take out the card. At this time, a thought flashed, and he said, “That, Brother Luo, my card has already been used, but I can tell you my card attribute. It's a [Plunder]. After using it, you can plunder a card back from the target.”

“Is that so? That's a pity.”

Luo Xi said expressionlessly, seemingly sighing: “It would be great if your card was still there. The administrator has a lot of cards on him, even those high-level ones. But forget it, it's useless to say anything more.”

“Yeah, if I had known, I wouldn't have used it.” Wang Tao also pretended to be full of regret, as if he really used it.

All three people were willing to follow Luo Xi upstairs.

Luo Xi didn't say much, leading the three people up to the eighth floor together.

At this time, he stopped and whispered: “It is known that the ultimate trouble here is Zhou Ya. She transforms at 12 noon, starting the killing time, but before she transforms, she is still just a child. What do you say, if before that, cough, we do that to her… wouldn't the danger be eliminated? Maybe there will even be rewards. After all, killing Memory Gatherers gives memory cards. If you kill a Cleaner, the rewards given may be even more generous.”

These words were already quite straightforward. Whether it was Wu Rui, Zhang Butcher, or Wang Tao, they all understood what Luo Xi meant.

The three people had different expressions. Wu Rui looked at Luo Xi with a strange look in her eyes, Zhang Butcher frowned, very displeased, only Wang Tao, in addition to shock, flashed a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

Luo Xi didn't continue to speak. He walked to the door of room 809 and knocked.

After a while, the door opened, revealing Zhou Xinpeng's very gloomy face.

It could be seen that this middle-aged man with glasses and a strong scholarly air was in a very bad mood at the moment.

“Carrot, we meet again. Won't you invite us in to sit for a while?” Luo Xi asked.

Zhou Xinpeng was obviously忍着 (qiang ren zhe) suppressing his anger: “My suggestion is, don't come in, but it seems that people like you can't listen to other people's opinions at all.”

“I didn't expect to meet a confidant when I went out this time, who understands me so well.” Luo Xi said with a blank expression, saying something that sounded like a joke.

Zhou Xinpeng then stepped aside: “Okay, those who aren't afraid of death, come in.”

Luo Xi didn't refute, without the slightest fear, he stepped into room 809. Behind him, Wu Rui followed closely, then Zhang Butcher.

Wang Tao hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and walked in with a stiff head.

Bang!

The door of room 809 closed.

Passionate August, asking for monthly tickets!
