Hell App - Chapter 63

Because his mood was not calm, Bai Yan watched legal programs until very late.

Finally, he fell asleep on the chair without realizing it. Halfway through, he got up and lay down on the bed. He didn’t wake up until half past ten in the morning.

After he woke up completely, the first thing he did was to call Ye Shangyu.

“What’s going on?” Ye Shangyu’s voice appeared, accompanied by a crackling sound of keyboard tapping.

“Team up?”

“Normal difficulty doesn’t require forming a team. Let’s talk about it later.” After Ye Shangyu finished speaking, he immediately hung up the phone, sounding very busy.

Ye Shangyu refused very decisively, and Bai Yan heard her implication.

There is no doubt that Ye Shangyu means to cooperate, but in her opinion, there is no value in cooperation for people who can’t even survive the normal difficulty. It seems that the opportunity to team up with her will have to wait until after the sixth level.

After failing to invite Ye Shangyu, Bai Yan casually called Luo Xing.

“Beep…beep…”

There was no answer there.

Bai Yan looked at the time, and he should still be in class at this point.

Although the summer vacation is over, high school senior students still have to make up for classes during the holidays. Even if the school does not arrange it, many high school students will take the initiative to go to cram schools to make up for themselves.

Luo Xing didn’t answer the phone, and Bai Yan was not in a hurry.

He washed up slowly and combined breakfast and lunch into one meal.

At 12 noon, he called Luo Xing’s number again, and this time he finally got through.

There was a lot of people on the other side of the phone, including the chatter of students and the voices of parents picking up their children. It was completely different from the silence on Ye Shangyu’s side.

“Don’t call me if you have nothing to do. I’m very busy and I have to study.”

Before Bai Yan could say anything, Luo Xing said first, “If it’s about forming a team, you don’t have to ask me anymore. I like teammates with honest personalities. That’s it. I’m done.”

Luo Xing hung up the phone very quickly. Seeing his reaction, Bai Yan shook his head. He felt that Luo Xing’s mental quality was not good.

Yes, he and Ye Shangyu almost cheated him in the last game, but didn’t the cheating fail? As for being so vigilant?

He doesn’t even want to suffer this small loss. It seems that Comrade Luo Xing is not a qualified honest person.

Bai Yan was greatly moved, thinking that it was really hard to find honest teammates.

The sixth level of the game will start soon. The further you go, the harder it will be for a pure honest person to exist. Honest people generally don’t survive until later. It seems that Luo Xing doesn’t want to be an honest person anymore.

Bai Yan felt a little depressed after being rejected by two people one after another.

However, what Ye Shangyu said is also true. In normal difficulty, the need for teammates is really not that great.

Even if teammates in the normal difficulty level seek death, they will generally not implicate other people, but will only seek death themselves. After reaching the difficult difficulty level, one move can affect the whole body. Only then will teammates need to be carefully selected, rather than indiscriminately.

No longer thinking about his teammates, Bai Yan spent the rest of the day exercising and reading posts as usual.

In the middle of the process, he also opened Chu Fu’s live broadcast room.

After her face-to-face interview in real life, Chufu’s live broadcast room is still open and is much more prosperous than half a month ago.

At that time, Chu Fu’s live broadcast was to eat ten buckets of instant noodles, but they were only half the size of normal buckets of instant noodles, and the total was only five bowls of noodles.

But this time, she placed eight bowls of noodles in front of her. Each bowl was a standard portion for one person. They were filled to the brim and very substantial.

Bai Yan took a casual glance and stopped paying attention.

Chu Fu was of no importance to him, and it would be a waste of time to look at her again.

He was the one who wanted to clear the game and get a big gift package. People like Chu Fu who were destined not to live until the end were not worthy of his attention. In fact, Chu Fu was surprised that Chu Fu could survive until now.

She has almost no brain, how did she survive the first few levels?

…

Time flies by, and in a blink of an eye, the day comes to enter the game.

Bai Yan opened the app and clicked on the icon for the sixth level. When he finished clicking, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. He was standing at the entrance of a shopping mall. The first thing he did was to lower his head and check his phone.

[Matching successful]

[Number of players: 2 people]

[Game Difficulty: Normal]

[Level description: This round of the game is ‘Fierce Ghost Mall’. Follow the game prompts to find out the cause of death of the four missing people, and successfully protect any designated NPC from leaving the mall. This is considered a victory in the game. 】

[Background introduction: You are a slightly famous detective. Recently, you have received four strange commissions.

The relatives of the four clients disappeared mysteriously. The missing persons did not know each other and there was no connection between them.

The only clue you got is that they all disappeared in the same mall. Perhaps, there is some unknown secret hidden in this mall…]

【game rules:】

[1. In this round of the game, the player’s identity is a detective, and the NPC will automatically trust the player’s identity. The game duration of this round is 12 hours. If the game time is exceeded, the game will be considered failed. 】

[2. The name of the designated NPC will be marked in red letters above the head. The four NPCs will arrive at the entrance of the mall at 9 o’clock, 11 o’clock, 13 o’clock, and 15 o’clock respectively. Players can just wait at the entrance of the mall. 】

[3. Players need to find out the cause of death of the four missing people and protect any designated NPC from leaving the mall. After meeting the conditions, click the ‘Return’ button on your phone to leave the game. 】

“It’s a protection game. It seems that the NPCs in this level can’t be used casually…”

After reading the rules of the game, Bai Yan felt quite sorry.

The NPCs in the game are, in a sense, the players’ second life.

If there is anything that looks dangerous, you can trick the NPC into entering first. The NPC in this level cannot be used casually, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of the game in this level.

This idea flashed through Bai Yan’s mind, but he did not pursue it further.

It’s none of his business what the app plans to do. As long as it doesn’t waste his customs clearance gift package, he doesn’t care about the conspiracy behind the app.

His good brother is still waiting for him to help arrange his life, so he has no time to delve into unnecessary matters.

Looking away from the screen, Bai Yan stood at the entrance of the mall and looked around.

At the door, people in twos and threes were wandering on the street. There was a staff member in a doll costume trying to distribute flyers, but few people paid attention.

Bai Yan glanced around and found no NPC with a red letter above his head.

However, he still gained something, because he saw a familiar person.

This made him extremely disgusted.

Before he could say anything in disgust, the other end said in surprise: “Wang…cough, why are you here?”

Bai Yan chuckled and made a gesture like cutting his neck.

At this time, Chu Fu was about to cry. Why was she so unlucky? Why did she meet this crazy person again?

I’m afraid she’s going to be in trouble this time!

Looking at Chu Fu’s wonderful expression, Bai Yan knew that she must be scolding him in her heart again.

But Bai Yan didn’t care. Instead, he greeted her with a smile: “What a coincidence, we meet again.”

“Ha…haha…we meet again, what a fate.” Chu Fu laughed dryly, her eyelids twitching: “May I ask what the name of this game is?”

“Just call me Wang Ze. There are only two of us in this game, and no third player will know about it.” Bai Yanyi pointed out: “No matter what happens.”

Although Chu Fu’s mind wasn’t very bright, after hearing Bai Yan’s “hint”, her face turned even greener – there are only two of us, no matter what happens, no third person will know, what are you planning to do to me? do what! ?

Thinking of this person’s style in the first level, Chu Fu felt that she was in danger.

She never felt it was over.

Wang Ze is a petty person, and she has never seen such a shameless man.

Now, there are only two of them in this level of the game. No matter how stupid she is, she knows what this means based on her experience of watching countless TV series. Isn’t this a great opportunity to kill people and silence them?

If she hadn’t been killed in reality, how could this lunatic let go of this opportunity?

Chu Fu felt that she had grown a lot after experiencing five games.

If she had just finished the first level of the game, she would definitely run away when she saw Wang Ze again, but now, she could hold her own and deal with him with a stiff smile.

Seeing Bai Yan’s slightly narrowed eyes, Chu Fu’s tailbone was extremely alert.

Chu Fu thought she was acting calmly, but Bai Yan looked at her performance and sighed inwardly. It had been five games and she was still so stupid. How on earth did she survive until now?

Originally, Bai Yan felt that teammates on normal difficulty were not that important.

But the moment he saw Chu Fu, he realized that he was wrong. Teammates are really useful. If you don’t find reliable people to team up with, you will be matched with such people.

It would be fine if it were in other modes. For this kind of protection game that required decryption, he felt that he could give up his teammates’ brains.

Forget it, it’s the same thing if you want to survive, just treat this game as a single player game.

Ignoring the unnatural Chu Fu, Bai Yan lowered his head and looked at the time. It was now one minute before nine o’clock.

At nine o’clock sharp, a little loli with a red letter on her head walked to the entrance of the mall. She was dejected. She looked only about seven or eight years old, and her face was full of worry and anxiety.

Judging from her red eyes, it was obvious that she had cried not long ago.

Seeing the NPC approaching, Bai Yan and Chu Fu quickly stopped her.

The little Loli was not afraid of being blocked by two adults. She looked up at the two of them and tried her best on tiptoes: “Brother, sister, are you the detectives who helped me find my mother? My mother is missing and she hasn’t come back for a day. Home, I can’t find her anywhere.”

Seeing the two people nodding, the little Loli took out a handful of coins from her pocket, stretched out her hand and whispered: “This is all my pocket money, can you help me find my mother? My name is Cai Yu, brother and sister, you can call me Xiaoyu, I haven’t seen my mother since last night, I’m really worried about her.”

Seeing Cai Yu’s sad look, Chu Fu fell silent. Even though she knew it was just an NPC, she couldn’t bear to tell her that her mother was dead and she would never see her living mother again.
