Chapter 72

"Y-You, how can you be like this?" The boss lady and Guo Xingxing were shocked when they opened the door.

At the door, Dugu Fu was drenched in sweat, out of breath, as if he had just been fished out of water. His face was pale, his clothes stained with blood, and it was unclear where he was injured...

They quickly pulled him inside. The boss lady and Guo Xingxing, without regard for propriety, undid his clothes to examine him. Upon seeing his condition, they both shed tears.

Dugu Fu was covered in wounds of all sizes, bruises and cuts all over his body!

No matter how quick his reflexes were, no matter how familiar he was with the rules of the Death Design, he had still had to fight his way through so many enemies and kite them for tens of minutes...

How could he possibly be unscathed? This was a Death Design! He wasn't Superman.

"I'll get the medicinal wine!" "I'll find some bandages!" They exchanged a glance and hurriedly got up.

"Wait!" Dugu Fu grabbed the two women, "Let me check my phone first." He couldn't ignore the truth of his near-death experience.

How could this happen?

The one who was Death Designed was a player, and clearly an enemy. Even if he was killed by the design, wouldn't he notify others outside the game about who killed him? And wasn't there someone around to see it? Why didn't anyone ask or investigate, allowing the boss lady and Guo Xingxing to escape so easily?

Fortunately, the Death Design came with a video recording function. Just like in football games, the best moments could be replayed in slow motion for detailed review.

While the two women were busy, Dugu Fu opened his phone to check.

Upon seeing it, he was speechless...

The player had turned his back and died, never seeing the boss lady and Guo Xingxing. No wonder.

As for the closest witness, the flower shop owner... he was killed along with them. The boss lady and Guo Xingxing had truly mastered the art of cutting off all loose ends.

The conversation at the end of the video explained the last mystery.

"Alright. Now that we have this, the surveillance is useless, right? Let's go." The boss lady said, waving the hard drive of the surveillance equipment. It was clearly a move she had learned from the anime exhibition's surveillance room.

"Sis Wei, don't rush. Someone might be watching. We can't let anyone identify us... How about we switch clothes or wear them backwards?" Guo Xingxing was more meticulous.

"Hey, there's a back door here. Perfect, let's change clothes and go quickly!"

Dugu Fu was moved to tears. Sis Wei, Xingxing, you two are really quick learners!

It turned out he had overthought it. There was no trap, no conspiracy. They really hadn't left any loose ends. If he had known this, why had he risked his life and gone through such a harrowing experience?

"Does it hurt?" Seeing the tears in Dugu Fu's eyes, the woman treating his wounds was startled, "I'll be gentler..."

Though he felt wronged and depressed, sitting on the bed with a beautiful girl wiping his wounds on one side and a gentle woman carefully bandaging him on the other... all his fatigue, depression, and injuries vanished in an instant!

No matter what, everyone was alive, and the plan had gone smoothly. What could be more important than that? Moreover, a sudden idea sprang to Dugu Fu's mind...

Bringing the boss lady and Guo Xingxing into this world was for protection and teasing. But after this incident, he realized that both had great potential. Poor skills could be trained, but low intelligence was hard to improve.

Both had a good foundation. If properly trained, they could become his helpers.

"Done! A kiss!" While thinking, Dugu Fu suddenly leaned in and kissed Guo Xingxing.

The beautiful girl froze as if electrocuted! Instinctively, she tried to push him away, her soft hand brushing against Dugu Fu's bare skin.

Dugu Fu shivered, goosebumps covering his body: So comfortable~~~

Pushing again, she accidentally touched a wound. The beautiful girl hesitated, allowing Dugu Fu to take advantage, kissing her sweet lips and tongue: "Mmmmm..."

Soft, smooth, and delicious! After a while, Dugu Fu released her with a long, silvery thread.

"Xiao Fu, you two..." The boss lady, watching from the side, blushed and felt embarrassed, playfully slapping Dugu Fu.

Suddenly, Dugu Fu leaned in: "Sis Wei, do you think you can escape? Smack!"

"Slap slap!" The boss lady wasn't like Guo Xingxing; she slapped him twice without hesitation.

"Ha ha!" Dugu Fu, still rubbing his face, laughed out loud, "You deserve it!"

However, while Guo Xingxing laughed, the boss lady felt a bit regretful. After slapping him, she gently kissed his forehead: "Don't play such extreme jokes in the future..."

Sigh, he hadn't succeeded even in such an environment and atmosphere. The revolution was far from over; comrades still needed to work hard. Rubbing his cheeks, Dugu Fu smiled shamelessly, remaining calm.

To achieve great things, one needed high emotional intelligence and a thick skin. His attributes had improved!

"Alright, Sis Wei, Xingxing, no need to bandage. This space has special properties; bandaging won't help. Just take some medicine when you get back, and it will be more effective."

"The enemies are still downstairs. Take the maintenance elevator to the left, which goes directly to the underground parking lot. I've called a taxi, which is waiting at the elevator entrance."

"Leave quickly and go to the room I prepared. You've completed the level and can exit at any time, but it's best to stay here for the night due to the chaos outside."

"But don't kill anyone this time... I've prepared some information about the game world for you to read if you have time." Dugu Fu briefly instructed them.

"What about you?" The boss lady and Guo Xingxing asked in unison.

"I... I'm going to die. You two... live well for me! Be happy." Seeing their worried expressions, Dugu Fu really wanted to joke around to see if he could get more out of the situation.

However... time didn't allow it, and if they really believed him and refused to leave, the joke would be too big.

He had to suppress his urge, shrugging and raising his eyebrows: "You go first. I'll finish up and contact you later."

Recalling the battles along the way, the boss lady and Guo Xingxing nodded. Although they had adapted to the world's rules, they were still a burden when acting together.

==========

"How? How? There's no one, absolutely no one!"

When Dugu Fu, the boss lady, and Guo Xingxing reunited, the pursuers were frantic, running around like headless flies.

There was no one within ten meters in any direction. How could they have been locked onto?

"I know! I know!" Ultimately, Fangdang Buji revealed the answer, "Above! Above! They were above you!"

"The surveillance system of this club is networked. The other side must have a computer expert who used the surveillance to lock onto you through the floor..."

Just because there was no one within ten meters in front, back, left, or right, didn't mean there was no one above or below. This wasn't hard to figure out.

"Impossible! We've blocked all the exits..." Some still didn't believe it.

At that moment, another team that had entered through the back door rushed over: "That guy climbed up to the second floor through the toilet window! The rope is still hanging there..."

Sometimes, the truth was that simple.

"Damn!"
