After deciding to give up, he started to gain popularity

He looked around for a while, as if looking for something, but the next moment his attention was attracted by the flashlight left on the ground.

"He ran away..." he muttered, then slowly walked over to pick up the flashlight, turned off the button, and slowly walked back to the original room and closed the door.

After he closed the door, no more sound was heard from the surroundings.

"..."

"..."

After a while, the door was opened again, and Doctor Birdbeak walked out slowly, but this time he had a skeleton in his hand. He muttered as he walked, "There are not enough corpses anymore. It's time to find a fresh one..."

After saying this, he walked to the corner and threw the skull in his hand into the pile of skulls.

Then he didn't even look at it and walked straight in another direction without even closing the door.

"..."

After a long while, when he was sure that the other party would not make a counterattack, Natsukawa Kanade carefully helped Shinomiya Kaguya to stand up.

Before this, the two of them had been hiding behind the door, and in order to divert each other's attention, they deliberately rolled the flashlight to the other side to disguise the scene of them accidentally leaving something behind while escaping.

This idea is certainly good, but it is obvious that the other party does not care about this kind of thing, and has not even thought about chasing them. He just goes back to continue his work.

But they still didn't dare to make any noise until the other party went out again and "dumped the body" and left, then they finally took action.

"We have to hurry up, this may be our only chance to get the mission items." Xia Chuan Zou said.

If he guessed correctly, the level challenge here should be like before, requiring them to understand the "mechanism" by themselves to seize the opportunity. What the other party said when he went out just now was undoubtedly a reminder, probably telling them "If you want to get the props, do it now." If they drag it on and wait for the other party to come back, they will definitely have to wait for the next round of "mechanism", but in that case, their challenge time will be as urgent as before.

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded, indicating that she understood.

So Xiachuan Zou helped her into the door, letting her lean against the door sill while observing when the bird-beaked doctor would come back, while he himself ran to search for the mission props.

Probably to take the challengers' feelings into consideration, the mission props were placed in a particularly conspicuous position. Therefore, it did not take much effort for Natsukawa Kanade to find the mission prop stained with "blood" on the operating table he had seen before - a heart-shaped gelatinous substance.

After putting it away casually, Natsukawa Kanade took the gauze beside him, wiped his hands, and turned back to look for Shinomiya Kaguya.

Even though she was still in the state of "young Kaguya", the silly young lady was obviously very obedient. If she was asked to look carefully in the direction where someone might be coming, she would never turn around to look around.

So Natsukawa Kanade stepped forward and patted her shoulder gently, indicating that her mission was accomplished.

Unexpectedly, I met the confused eyes of the silly lady: "What are you doing?"

"I'm not distracted by anything else. I'm completing my mission!"

"Hmm..." Natsukawa Kanade almost laughed out loud.

He thought it might be because he took very little time to complete the task, causing the other party to mistakenly think that he came to remind her not to be distracted, but in fact he really just found what he needed very quickly.

"You misunderstood. I meant that the thing has been found and we can leave." Xiachuan Zou explained, then squatted down with his back to her.

"Come on up, let's run away before anyone comes back."

"Ah, so fast?" Miss Sha Diao was a little surprised.

But in fact, she just sighed casually and didn't care about such things at all. She immediately lay on his back happily.

After settling Kaguya down, Natsukawa Kanade rushed to the next passage without even having time to appreciate the surrounding scenery.

This is not to say that he is a speed runner, but he has been challenging with someone on his back until now, and his stamina bar is visibly exhausted. It would certainly be good for him to save some time.

Not long after he left, the bird-beaked doctor came back leisurely, holding a skeleton in his hand and humming a song softly.

He was in a good mood - after such a long time, a group of challengers finally came. The noise he heard just now should have been made by them, so he found an excuse to go out, and then quietly came back according to the estimated time. This gave them enough space to react and think, and he could also come back to block the door when they were looking for something, thus adding a little surprise to their challenge journey.

Of course, he was also very dedicated. When he was about to reach the door, he put away his nonchalant look and continued to maintain the appearance of a perverted doctor.

He had already thought about how to torture this pair of partners - first pretend to know nothing and go back to do his own thing, then from time to time pretend to hear some noise and check the places where they might be hiding... Of course, he couldn't really find them, because that would give him a different feeling.

What he wants to do is to make them feel the "fear of being discovered" at all times, rather than the "anxiety and panic" after being discovered, or simply give up. He doesn't find such a situation interesting at all, and it goes against his original intention of choosing to be the scary one.

Hum... let's start the cat and mouse journey!

………………Where are the people??? And why are my props gone?

He was dumbfounded.

He was gone for less than 2 minutes! He must be dead!

------

On the other side, after quickly completing a branch quest, Natsukawa Kanade rushed to the second classic horror scene - the slaughterhouse - at the speed of light.

After learning from the last experience, Natsukawa Kanade warned Shinomiya Kaguya in advance to cover her mouth and not make any noise, because they were going to take the royal stealth route.

Although Miss Sha Diao didn't understand what the "royal stealth route" was, she was obedient, so she agreed without hesitation. In order to show her determination, she even made a gesture of zipping up her mouth.

Although she looks like a little child, she is very cute, so she is very attractive. In response, Natsukawa Kanade gave her a thumbs up and touched her head to encourage her.

The latter was even more cooperative, showing an adorable expression of enjoyment like a cat.

"..."

Looking at it this way, young Kaguya is actually quite cute, right? She’s even more approachable than her original self…

Xiachuan Zou's eyes were wandering.

161. Stand up, Miss Kaguya!

Looking at another "butcher" standing at the chopping board not far away and chopping something, Xiachuan Zou quietly made a plan for the silly lady next to him.

"I'll make some noise to attract that guy, and then you can take this opportunity to look around the table to see if there are any strange-looking small objects. You don't have to pick any in particular, just take away whatever you think is strange."

"I will try to hold Him back. When you find something, come back here and hide. Then I will come to find you." After a pause, Xiachuan Zou continued to compensate.

"But I'm not sure what the mechanism of this level is. I don't know if he will chase me out of the room. If you hear big footsteps coming back while you're looking, give up looking for it and hide first."

They had been here for several minutes, and the "butcher" had been repeating the chopping work like a robot. Xiachuan Zou guessed that he might need to hear some noise before reacting, so he felt that he couldn't delay any longer and waste time.

"do you understand?"

"Yeah, yeah." Shinomiya Kaguya nodded repeatedly with confidence.

Now she can be put to use. She no longer has to be a pretty vase behind the president to give him encouragement and cheer.

After finalizing the plan, Natsukawa Zou slowly moved to the door on the right.

As if it was deliberately designed to facilitate the challengers' escape, this "slaughterhouse" facility has several exits. Not only are the four sides connected, but the tables are also large wooden tables over one meter high. Although they creak and shake and look like they are about to fall, they are completely fine for hiding figures.

After determining the escape route, Natsukawa Kanade took out a few small glass balls he had picked up earlier from his pocket. After aiming in the right direction, he threw them out of the door in the opposite direction of Shinomiya Kaguya, while he hid aside to observe the situation.

"What's that sound?" The butcher turned around.

With the help of the dim light, Xiachuan Zou was finally able to see the other person's appearance clearly - a face full of flesh, a fierce look and blood stains. He didn't know if he was wearing makeup or just looked like this. He was wearing an apron that was covered with blood. His height was almost the same as the one he had seen before. Just a casual glance showed that his weight was definitely not low. When he walked, he left deep footprints with every step, and it even seemed that the wooden table next to him began to shake faintly.

But fortunately, it's just this kind of appearance. At most, it will give a little shock to those who see it for the first time, but it won't scare others.

The only problem that Xiachuan Zou was worried about was that if the collar on his neck detected the high volume due to the sound of running or the other party's shouting, he would be judged as a failure, which would be a big loss.

I have tried my best to reach the last level, so I should have been more cautious.

So he silently observed the other party's movements, and when he saw the other party swaying left and right, searching for something, but not finding anything suspicious and was about to turn back, Xiachuan Zou threw a glass ball again in the same direction but farther away.

Then, the butcher, like an NPC, detected the "someone" command and once again put on an angry expression and moved towards the direction of the noise, muttering, "Damn little rat, if I catch you I'll chop you into pieces!"

Of course, Natsukawa Kanade had no reaction to this official statement. She just watched him walk a little further away, then turned a corner and quietly returned to her original position. She raised her head slightly to observe Kaguya's situation.

She was diligently searching for something on the wooden table, but after searching for a long time she seemed to have found nothing. Seeing this, Xia Chuan Zou became very anxious and wanted to go over to help her look for it.

However, this was obviously impossible, because there was a butcher behind him who might come back at any time. He could only keep an eye on his surroundings and try to divert the other party's attention.

Fortunately, that guy's action pattern was very consistent with his temperament. He was a real big fool. After being attracted by Xiachuan Zou many times, he still did not go back to stand guard or do his own things. Instead, he began to search around the house while venting his anger.

Of course, it is impossible to find the two people. Not to mention that they are both inside the house, there are curtains at the entrances that block the view. It is impossible to find them with Eagle Eyes. After all, this is not a real scene in the game.

This went on for a long time, and the opponent seemed to have no strength left. He moved back with heavy steps and panting. Xia Chuanzou was quick-witted and used the same trick again, but this time the opponent just glanced back and did not chase him out.

"!" Natsukawa Kanade immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly stood up and moved towards Shinomiya Kaguya.

"Humph, you want to trick me again?" The butcher had a disdainful smile on his face, but he immediately realized something was wrong, "...No, the sound is coming from inside the house!"

So he immediately rushed into the house with the bloody boning knife in his hand, but he looked left and right but couldn't find anyone. He even opened all the clues that might have hidden people, but still couldn't find any trace.

"Strange, did I hear it wrong?" He murmured.

His little brain, which was not very smart to begin with, was now buzzing uncomfortably. Adding on the fact that it was too tiring to move in this outfit, he was not only sweating from the stuffiness but also too tired to move at all.

"Sit down for a while."

After murmuring this for a while, He began to look for a chair with heavy steps.

And just when He moved a little further away, Natsukawa Kanade and Shinomiya Kaguya crawled out from under the big wooden table.

With his hands on the table, watching the butcher walk away step by step, Natsukawa Kanade quickly turned around and signaled to Shinomiya Kaguya:

"This way."

He pointed in the direction opposite to the butcher, where there happened to be an exit, perfect for their escape.

"But I haven't found the props yet." Kaguya Shinomiya signaled to him with her mouth.

"It's okay, I'll help you move out first, and then I'll come in and look for it." Xiachuan Zou responded.

This place is too dangerous. If she keeps hiding under the table and the butcher doesn't leave, Kaguya will definitely be caught up in her current state.

Even if he managed to carry her out in time, the volume might exceed the limit due to the excessive movement, so the best way was to send Kaguya out first and then take the risk to come back to see if there was any chance.

"Okay..." Miss Sha Diao nodded, looking a little guilty.

I didn't expect that she still couldn't be of any use. It's really infuriating...

But just when she thought of this, she looked up and found that there was a black metal object attached to the piece of rotten meat hanging from the ceiling. So her eyes lit up and she quickly patted Xiachuan Kanade to remind him: "President, look at that!"

Xiachuan Zou looked in the direction she pointed, and indeed found a shape that matched the concave shapes he had seen before, so he hurried over and took the thing down.

"This should be it. Let's go." Xia Chuan Zou said happily.

He first helped Kaguya Shinomiya up, then squatted down and tried to carry her on his back, but he accidentally kicked the leg of the wooden table, making a loud noise.

Xiachuan Zou's face changed and he quickly checked his collar - there was still no movement, as if the switch had never been turned on.

However, just confirming this point is not enough. Now is not the time for them to relax. The butcher behind them must have heard what they are doing here. He has very good ears and will not miss any slight movement.

——That's what should be done.

As a result, even when Natsukawa Kanade came out of the slaughterhouse carrying Shinomiya Kaguya, there was still no sound of the other party running after them, as if they had completely given up searching for them.

"…Forget it, it's pretty good." Xiachuan Zou murmured.

At least it didn't take very long and the key task was completed.

The silly lady on his back was also very well behaved. She lay quietly on him without making any noise. She just liked playing with his hair, which made him feel itchy.

But considering that she has helped a lot this time, I should just indulge her, Xiachuan Zou thought, and then continued to move towards the next small level with a not relaxed pace.

162.Okay, okay, that’s how you wrote the script, right?

Similar to the configuration mode of the first two small levels, the last two challenges are also equipped with a character from a classic horror game and corresponding scenes, and are also chase battles triggered by sound.

However, under Natsukawa Kanade's operation, the game style gradually changed to stealth mode, causing several people to think that it was haunted for a while - although they were the ones playing the "ghosts".

After escaping from the actor who cosplayed as Chainsaw Man again, Natsukawa Kanade made a big detour and returned to where Shinomiya Kaguya was originally.

This time, Miss Sand Sculpture was very competitive. She found the mission props by her own strength and was not discovered or caught by the BOSS of the level during the whole process. She can be regarded as a very qualified partner.

He had been a little worried that if they separated, it would affect the evaluation of their completion of the game, but it seemed that it didn't matter if they didn't hold hands all the time during the game - after all, as long as they were not witnessed, they couldn't say that they didn't hold hands.

First you have to produce evidence!

In short, after finding this out, passing the level becomes much easier. After all, sometimes conjoined twins are definitely not as good as two equally capable and intelligent people who can act independently.
