“Oh…” Kexin really started to seriously think about it, “If we are going to kill people who are comparatively stronger first, then we should first kill that older brother No. 4, the older sister wearing the school uniform and her older brother and the seemingly quite strong older sister who came last.”

“Furthermore, I feel that the older brother No. 5 that was sleeping, was also especially suspicious! No matter how much he likes to sleep, the situation is already like this, how can he still sleep so well?” Kexin thought again and said, “The older brother No. 4 and the older sister wearing the school uniform spoke a lot today, and she seemed to be especially smart too… I guess it was one of them? Or was it the older brother No. 5 who was sleeping?”

Shen Mu was a little surprised, and nodded with a smile, “Kexin is really quite smart, don’t be afraid, and calm down, not many adults will have a clearer train of thought than you do.”

Kexin received encouragement and was somewhat inspired. Although she didn’t clearly say it, evidently she had always harboured dread towards this game and other players. “Then who was chosen in the end?”

Shen Mu pointed towards No. 7, Li Fengmei’s number.

Looking at Kexin who was a little confused, Shen Mu explained: “Looking from the current situation, the one with the closest relationship with Yang Ge is No. 1, Lin Huiru, and the one with the closest relationship with Li Fengmei is her brother Li Xuesong. If Yang Ge is chosen, the one with the biggest reaction will be Lin Huiru. If Li Fengmei is chosen, Li Xuesong’s reaction will be seen. Lin Huiru is not worthwhile for me to fear, but Li Xuesong makes me somewhat concerned.”

Kexin nodded: “What about the sleeping No. 5?” Clearly, she was very obsessed with the drowsy No. 5.

Shen Mu appeasedly patted No. 8 who felt once again neglected, saying: “Currently there are too few clues, I will look into the situation again tomorrow.”

Thinking for a while, Shen Mu said to Kexin: “If Li Fengmei is a police officer, according to the temperament she displayed today, the police team would have most likely arranged for her to jump out, proving her identity. If no one jumps out tomorrow, either they did not find a killer, or perhaps, Li Fengmei is a police member. “

Kexin nodded, seeing that Shen Mu’s tone was a bit hesitant when saying this sentence, he soon raised a doubtful point.

Shen Mu said, “In fact, this time, the rules are very interesting. Kexin, have you noticed? The special rules in the blue font were updated at night.”

Kexin turned on the phone, looking at the rules in blue font, and seemed to somewhat understand.

Shen Mu continued to say: “Look, when the killer side obtains victory, all three players can pass the preliminaries, it doesn’t matter if they were previously voted out. The town side want to achieve victory, only the surviving players can pass the preliminaries. The players who were previously eliminated, will then have to turn the punishment turntable, the danger degree is 0-3.”

” En,” Kexin looked at the rules, “Additionally if our killer side loses, the three of us would be completely done for. Yet in the event that the town side loses, and they still haven’t been eliminated, there is still a chance to turn this punishment turntable. 5 should be more terrible than 3, but there is also a level like 0 where there is no need for punishment.”

Shen Mu nodded: “Yes. Moreover, it’s better to accept a punishment than to directly lose, with no hope at all. Although we don’t know what the result of not passing the preliminaries is, it may not be lower than the level ‘5’ of the punishment turntable. So, it is difficult for the town side to be completely united. Everyone has their own selfish motives, and a person who has drawn a police card is the same.”

” But,” Kexin hesitantly spoke, “If the police also do not jump out after they find a killer, or a good person, how can the town side win, since they won’t have any information?”

“Right. This game was originally easier for the town side than the killer side. It is based on the premise that everyone does their own duties. There are six civilians, and three policemen. It is almost impossible for the killers to dispose of all the policemen in the first three days. And at the end, there would be many town people who had been checked by the police, increasing the difficulty for the killers. But if every good person was only interested in saving themselves, with the police not daring to reveal their identity by announcing the information, and the civilians not daring to properly analyze for the fear of being targeted by the killers. Then, this game was much simpler for the killers. “

” But who is not afraid of death? ” Kexin blurted out, “Isn’t it normal to be afraid of death, since no one would want to die? “

Shen Mu sighed:” Sometimes the more you are afraid of death, the faster you die ah. “

“If the town side achieves victory, the worst result would be the punishment turntable. If the town side fails, then they would be directly done for.” Shen Mu said with a smile, “People want others to come forward, and themselves to withdraw until the end, to win without even moving a finger. How could there be such a good thing?”

“Then would we not have a great chance of winning? “Kexin became a little excited.

However, Shen Mu shook his head: “If I can think of this principal, other people can also think of it. As long as the police team aren’t all idiots, things should not develop like that.” After thinking about it, he added, “At least it won’t always be like this. There may still be wishful thinking in the first two days, so tomorrow should not be a big problem.”

Shen Mu looked at the time, and unknowingly it was already 1:25: “Okay, it’s not early. Kexin, they probably won’t check you. Tomorrow you are the second to speak, don’t act too surprised, and also don’t be too calm. If you don’t say too much or too little, there shouldn’t be a problem.”

Kexin: “……” I feel like there is a very big problem.

After the three people had cast their votes, Kexin said: “No. 8…what will he do? He will be the first to speak tomorrow, while I will be the third.”

Shen Mu: “It is not clear what the specific rules for the discussion and voting phase are. Although the speaking order will most likely start from the player after the deceased, the specific requirements will still need to be discovered tomorrow.” Shen Mu took a big breath, “And no matter what little 8’s speaking position will be, he will ultimately have to speak.”

“Can I talk like this; if, before me, No. 9 talked a lot, I will just analyze No. 9’s point of view. If No. 9 doesn’t say much, then I will try to say something little?” Kexin thought about it and said.

“Yes, that’s it. But don’t just completely follow the viewpoint of No. 9. Even if you can’t think of anything to say, just say that you have never played it before and that you don’t really know how to play. Say that you don’t know if you should reveal your identity, and you’ll speak more about it the next day. Definitely do not say something similar to what No. 9 said. If No. 9 doesn’t say anything substantial, you can just casually say something, but don’t attack No. 9.”

Kexin nodded, seeming as though she half understood.

“Well then, go back and rest. If someone tries to set you up tomorrow, asking why you look as though you didn’t sleep well or something like that, don’t panic, it’s normal to not sleep well.”

Kexin stood up, before seeing that Shen Mu was still sitting in his original position without moving: “Aren’t you going back?”

“You go back first, if we go back together there’ll be too much movement.” Shen Mu solemnly said as he embraced No. 8.

“…..” Kexin turned and walked away. She fiercely opened the door, with a manner of wanting to slam the door shut, but in the end she still closed the door softly.

“Well, the light bulb is gone!” Shen Mu had a look as though he was very happy, intentionally scaring No. 8, “Little loli is fearless, then are you afraid of brother?”

No. 8 also looked very happy, since it seemed that the person who occupied Shen Mu’s attention was gone.

“Look at how old you are, still fighting for attention with a little girl. We are teammates and need to help each other.” Shen Mu looked into No. 8’s bright eyes, and couldn’t help hooking his nose.

Not knowing if No. 8 understood it a little, as he tilted his head to rub against Shen Mu’s shoulders, revealing a trace of grievance.

Shen Mu felt that he almost couldn’t hold back the pink bubbles that were pouring from his heart. He straightened up No. 8, causing No. 8 to look a little confused and Shen Mu deliberately asked with a deadpan face: “Little 8, what’s your name?”

“……”

“Then I will call you a Little 8 from now on! Little 8, do you know where your home is?”

“……”

“My name is Shen Mu. If you can remember me when you return to the real world, you must come and find me. My home is… ” Where was his home… “Ha, I’ll tell you where my home is tomorrow.”

At this moment, a burst of sourness suddenly rushed from Shen Mu’s heart. If No.8 really became delirious due to the BUG of this Suspended Life Game, after he returned to the real world, if he restored his consciousness, would he still remember him (Shen Mu)? If he did remember him, what would he feel? Although people have become a lot more open-minded, the people who are traditional and cannot accept homosexuality are not a minority.

Will you miss me? Or will you hate me, and feel disgusted like Lin Huiru?

No. 8 didn’t have as many thoughts as Shen Mu. When he saw that Shen Mu had suddenly stood up, he immediately felt a sense of crisis and nimbly hopped out of bed.

“Be good, it’s almost time, I have to go back.” Shen Mu tucked No. 8 back into bed. Seeing No. 8’s wronged expression, he immediately yielded, “Then I’ll stay for another 5 minutes!”

1 : 55, Shen Mu must leave. Seeing No. 8 once again follow him, Shen Mu hurriedly held him down, and softly urged in his ear, and said, “Be good, go to bed first. There will be a tough battle tomorrow, and I will definitely protect you.”

The two were too close, and when Shen Mu spoke, hot air was exhaled into No. 8’s ears. As No. 8 moved due to the sensitivity, Shen Mu’s lips came into contact with his ears. Feeling something a little cool, Shen Mu’s heart trembled, and he also had the idea of not wanting to leave at all. Acrazy thought flashed through his mind: in any case the rules only stated that they must stay in a room, not that he must stay in his own room, right?

However, Shen Mu immediately became clear headed. There was a large probability that the rules were referring to his own room. While the consequences of losing was as yet unknown, if the rules were violated you would be directly erased, since the Suspended Life Game definitely would not tolerate any violation of the regulations. Staying in someone else’s room at night, he did not know if it would be judged as cheating. Even if the rules allowed it, two people staying in the same room was too suspicious, and the other players were not fools.

After he settled No. 8 down, Shen Mu went downstairs quickly and silently.

He was really very obedient…Although he didn’t want to, and also didn’t understand what he was saying, he still obediently remained there…

The next morning, 6 : 00.

Shen Mu clicked on the mobile phone’s “Player’s Status” icon, the original 12 lit up numbers became 11, as the number 7 of Li Fengmei became dark, as though to indicate her elimination.

Although it was only 6:00 and in terms of modern people’s work and rest hours few people would get up so early, Shen Mu believed that tonight, no one would oversleep. So there was no need to wait anymore, since everyone wanted to know what the situation would be when they were eliminated. Besides, Little 8’s door was not closed, so although the rules of the game prohibited any illegal behavior, how could he feel assured with No 8’s current state.

Opening his door, Shen Mu thought about it, and still decided to go to Li Fengmei’s room on the first floor first. No. 8 was already very noticeable, and if they remained together at this critical moment, it would give others a sense of crisis.

On the first floor, Li Fengmei’s room was actually open. When Shen Mu walked in, there were already several people inside.
