Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 630 Concealing?

Xu Han hesitated for a moment: "Yes, maybe."

Shi Yuan, standing nearby, glanced at the night sky outside the window and fell silent.

She was probably the unluckiest of the group, as she was grabbed by the "guest" as soon as she entered the room—leaving her no time to do anything else.

This also meant she didn't notice the change in the sky at all.

At the door, Yu Shijiu looked through the peephole and saw that the "guests" in the other rooms were all dressed up. The men were wearing leather shoes, suits and ties, and the women were wearing beautiful and luxurious dresses of various styles and walking together... Everyone's face was still covered by a hazy mist, and their features and expressions could not be seen.

Yu Shijiu frowned, looking somewhat displeased.

He dislikes this kind of "plot" where faces aren't clearly visible, even if these NPCs aren't important clues.

Thinking of the "female guest" who revealed her true face during the conversation, Yu Shijiu's mood became slightly depressed.

The "female guest" who was suspected to be a second-floor employee was alright; he didn't dislike her, and even... felt a little pity for her.

Yes, mercy.

If the other party really is a "second-level employee," then it's truly a bit pitiful.

Hmm... the doors to the rooms of those "guests" whose heads they chopped off are still tightly closed, and there is no sign of any "people" coming out.

Yu Shijiu had reason to suspect that it was because they had used up all the "plot points" on those people.

After watching the male and female guests disappear at the end of the corridor, Yu Shijiu turned around and looked at the three people in the room with different expressions, and said:

"So, shall we go out and check out the dance first?"

"...Wait a moment."

He Lingling had a slight headache. "Let's talk about what to do next—Shi Yuan."

He Lingling suddenly looked at Shi Yuan, her expression hesitant: "What happened after you were dragged into the room by the guest?"

"..." Shi Yuan's indifferent expression changed, his eyes filled with disgust and annoyance:

"He tried to rape me."

Although it sounds absurd, it is indeed true.

Shi Yuan coldly uttered a string of vulgarities typical of male guests, took a deep breath, and even forgot the fear of being nearly chopped in two by an axe.

"...That's roughly it. He and I, well, we fought for a long time, and in the end he lost."

The so-called fight naturally required external force—especially since the "guest" he was facing was not a real human being. Shi Yuan used at least three props to "kill" the other party.

"……powerful."

This is Xu Han.

"very good."

This is He Lingling.

Lu Chusheng remained silent, licking his paws like a cat.

Having returned from looking down the corridor, Yu Shijiu asked curiously, "Then where is his body?"

Shi Yuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "...In the bathroom."

Yu Shijiu became curious again and, as she hurried toward the bathroom, glanced back at Shi Yuan.

"By the way," Yu Shijiu asked before He Lingling could, "did you see the 'goatskin' after you killed him?"

He Lingling added, "Yes, compared to NPCs, 'Goatskin' should be much harder to deal with."

"..." Shi Yuan was silent for a few seconds, then coughed: "He's in the bathroom too."

"..."

Even Yu Shijiu gave her a thumbs up and praised her:

"Sister Shi Yuan, you're amazing!"

Shi Yuan coughed several times from the praise, and his ears turned red.

Xu Han, with a "Holy crap" expression, snuggled up to He Lingling and whispered:

"How come everyone is so strong? Are we the only two weaklings?"

"Don't take me with you, thank you."

He Lingling politely declined his admiration, and retorted sarcastically, "Only you are."

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!!!"

Xu Han was furious. "I'm not! I'm the support! I'm the support!"

"..."

Seeing that He Lingling ignored him, Xu Han became even angrier and turned around angrily, striding towards the bathroom.

"Fine, I won't talk to him then! Can't he just go check out the perverted guy in the bathroom with Shi Jiu?!"

He Lingling ignored him, but glanced at Shi Yuan, who had walked to the window again, and pursed her lips.

Shi Yuan must have been hiding something from them.

It wasn't something that happened in the game; it was probably something that happened to her personally.

He Lingling thought—Shi Yuan most likely possesses a talent skill.

But since Shi Yuan himself didn't say anything, He Lingling had no right to ask. As long as it didn't affect the progress of the dungeon, she was too lazy to think about it.

But if Shi Yuan activated an offensive talent skill—He Lingling would have to think twice.

They are lacking offensive power right now, and Shi Yuan herself knows this... Could it be that she didn't activate an offensive talent skill?

He Lingling was somewhat conflicted.

Lu Chusheng was also overthinking things.

As Shi Yuan quickly finished recounting what had happened after she was pulled into the room, Lu Chusheng's gaze lingered on her for a long time.

Talent skills?

Lu Chusheng opened his paws and licked the dust hidden inside, his pupils deep and unfathomable.

Is it because of fear?

Or is it because of something else...?

Lu Chusheng patiently licked between his paws, completely unaware that his behavior was becoming more and more like "Fatty's".

(The chubby cat, fast asleep in its mind's eye, rolled over and stuck out its tongue to lick the air: ??? Who called me out on its own?)

At the bathroom door, Yu Shijiu pushed open the half-closed door and went inside.

The strong smell of mutton hit him so hard that he squinted. He had gotten used to the strange smell and didn't feel like throwing up now.

"..."

Then Yu Shijiu saw a headless corpse lying on the bathroom floor tiles.

It was the corpse of a man who looked somewhat robust.

Yu Shijiu paused for a moment, then moved closer to take a look.

Looking down from the broken neck, there were no internal organs; it was empty, like a perfectly preserved shell.

Yes, the handling was very skillful.

Yu Shijiu thought for a moment, then reached out and pinched the headless male corpse's shoulder to help him up.

A few scattered blood droplets still dotted the blood vessels on the cross-section. It was dry and somewhat blackened under the bright bathroom light. If you got close, you could smell a rotten, fishy odor.

Yu Shijiu wrinkled his nose, disgustedly released the headless male corpse, stood up and began to look for his head and—"goatskin".

Every guest has a "goatskin"—well, the second-floor staff seem to have some "goatskins."

Thinking about this, Yu Shijiu searched back and forth in the fairly large bathroom, but couldn't find the "goatskin" or the male corpse's head.

"...Where did you hide it?"

Yu Shijiu was somewhat surprised.

He didn't doubt that Shi Yuan would lie to him; he just felt that he hadn't found the right person.

Xu Han followed and saw the boy shaking his head (not really) looking for something in the bathroom.

"Shi Jiu—Holy crap!"

Xu Han leaned closer and lowered his head, startled by the male customer's corpse, and gasped, "What, what are you looking for?"
