Chapter 77

I'll do anything you ask.

A corner of the living room.

The hands of the clock point to noon.

Compared to yesterday's hustle and bustle, the villa seemed much quieter today.

That makes sense, though, since almost everyone is already dead.

After finishing the meal,

Chen Yu walked out of room 204 alone and came to the living room on the first floor.

He immediately spotted the three members of the bank team, who were gathered with Dr. Josh.

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Josh's face was pale, his lips were tightly pressed together, and he was clutching his medical bag tightly in his hand, which was covered in blood.

"Dr. Qiao, please explain more clearly. How could two perfectly healthy people..."

"That's right! The mission is complete, isn't it? The rules are over!"

"What on earth did that? You can't keep it from us..."

The bank team, consisting of two men and one woman, was all somewhat anxious at this moment.

One problem after another.

They were eager to hear from Josh what had happened the previous night.

But Josh's mind was foggy, and his eyes were somewhat vacant...

Just as the surrounding noise reached its peak, it suddenly fell silent.

Josh looked up and saw that the three members of the bank team had covered their mouths.

Following the line of sight...

Chen Yu had walked to the long table at some point, pulled out a wooden chair, and sat down.

"Dr. Qiao, what's wrong? You don't seem to be feeling well..."

Josh was pale, her eyes filled with terror: "Chen Yu, Su Si and Zhang Xuelei are dead! They were attacked by monsters after the mission was completed! I...I would never lie to you!"

Chen Yu nodded and comforted him, "Yes, I know. Don't feel pressured, take your time..."

Josh swallowed hard. "Last night, after you left, the three of us were exhausted."

"The assignment at the time was that I would take the first half of the night shift, and they would take the second half. Everything was fine at the time."

"But this morning, after I got up..."

"I saw them lying at the doorway of the room, their bodies covered in...bloody holes..."

"?"

Chen Yu was stunned: "A blood hole???"

Josh's voice trembled: "Yes, dozens of bloody holes, from his chest to his legs, all through. The blood soaked the floor, but I didn't hear a sound all night..."

The bank team members were horrified and turned pale.

Chen Yu's eyes darkened slightly: "Take me to see..."

Josh shuddered, but nodded nonetheless, turned and led the way, his steps unsteady.

Third floor, room 312.

As soon as the door was pushed open, a strong smell of rust hit the door.

The floor in front of me was almost entirely covered in dark red blood.

The two female corpses were covered with countless penetrating wounds, a truly terrifying sight.

Their faces were still frozen in the terror of their deaths, their pupils dilated.

Josh had already covered his mouth.

She couldn't imagine what was happening outside while she was sleeping.

Chen Yu's expression remained unchanged as he stepped over the threshold, his gaze sweeping across...

There were no obvious signs of damage to the room, or even any signs of a struggle.

This illustrates the significant gap between the two sides.

Chen Yu walked to Su Si's body, squatted down, and examined it carefully.

He frowned and pinched a piece of glass-like material out of the wound with his thumb and forefinger.

Blue and transparent.

It's definitely not glass.

This shouldn't be related to the attack on Shen Qingci last night...

"Chen Yu, have you discovered anything?"

Josh stood outside the door, hesitant to come in, and asked in a low voice.

Chen Yu shook his head: "Didn't find anything. But you... you're coming back to sleep tonight. If you're this scared now, what will you do tonight?"

Josh's body trembled, his voice hoarse: "I..."

"If that thing really wants to kill you,"

Chen Yu interrupted her, walked out of the room, and casually closed the door behind him: "We should have made our move last night. The fact that it didn't touch you means it's not interested in you."

"But..."

Josh wanted to say something more.

Chen Yu waved his hand: "In this place, if something is really watching you, you can't hide from it. Don't sleep tonight, it's the last day anyway..."

Josh nodded. "Okay."

Chen Yu didn't linger and turned to walk towards the stairs.

There was one more thing he didn't say to Josh:

The monster in room 312 is far more terrifying than the ghost face, the insects, or the mirror...

If someone really wants to kill her, no one can stop them.

Josh watched his retreating figure, then gritted his teeth, opened the door, and went inside.

On the first floor, Chen Yu walked to the restaurant.

The three members of the bank team are still here.

They were quite frightened by Josh's description and decided to stay there until nightfall.

"Where are your invitation cards?"

Chen Yu got straight to the point and asked.

The three were taken aback at first, then realized what was happening and waved their hands repeatedly.

"N-No!"

"We've already sent out all the invitation cards!"

"Really, Mr. Chen Yu, we wouldn't dare lie to you!"

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes, somewhat disbelieving.

After all, Su Si and her group only exchanged one card with the bank team; they should still have one left.

Unless, one of them has already switched teams.

Chen Yu pondered for a moment and looked at the girl among them.

But the next second...

"Mr. Chen Yu!"

The boy with glasses instinctively took a half-step to the side, completely blocking the girl's view.

"?"

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead: "That...she...she didn't have any either! We really don't have any! I swear!"

Having witnessed him kill so many people, this guy still dares to stand in his way; he's got some nerve.

Could they be a pair of star-crossed lovers?

Chen Yu shrugged, a hint of regret in his expression: "Okay."

He turned and walked deeper into the hall, muttering to himself, "I was wondering who among you would be willing to join my team..."

These words were, of course, meant for others to hear.

The time that follows.

Chen Yu carefully wandered around the lobby, restaurant, and storage room on the first floor.

The confidence comes from the remaining 173 Golden Body Cards.

He dug three feet into the ground, leaving nothing untouched by anything that could be smashed.

The entire first floor of the villa was almost a garbage dump; everything that should be broken was broken, and even things that shouldn't be broken were almost broken as well.

However, there was still none that could be absorbed by the Grand Tutor's container.

"Sigh, is this the end...?"

Although he had made a fortune from this mission, Chen Yu still felt it was a pity.

How awesome would it be to increase sensitivity to 30?

Just as he was inspecting the storage room in the far corner, a voice came through: "Mr. Chen... Mr. Chen Yu..."

Upon hearing the clear female voice, Chen Yu's lips curled up slightly.

He turned around.

as predicted.

It's that young woman from the bank's team.

She was in her early twenties, with a clean and delicate face and soft features; she was the kind of woman whose beauty grew on you.

She was wearing a uniform shirt, with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing a patch of fair skin.

She wore a dark knee-length skirt that hugged her straight calves.

Actually, Chen Yu's resistance is quite good.

But last night's close interaction with the big star has left some aftereffects.

Especially this girl in front of me...

The buttons on her collar were still fastened a few minutes earlier at the restaurant.

But it is open at this moment.

This deliberate yet awkward display truly made Chen Yu's body heat up again.

"Huh? Aren't you... with your two teammates?"

Chen Yu pretended not to understand.

The girl explained softly, "I...I made an excuse to go to the restroom, that's why I came here to find you..."

"Oh, oh, oh."

Chen Yu suddenly realized: "And then? What do you want from me?"

The girl's eyelashes fluttered: "My name is Zhou Xiaowei. Just now, what you were saying... about the invitation card and joining the team..."

She paused, then said earnestly, "I know my talent might be useless... but I'm very obedient; I can clean vehicles, do laundry, cook... I can do all of those!"

"And I'm very grateful to you, I'll do anything you ask..."

"Yes... um... anything is fine..."
