The male protagonist survives in the infinite game by supporting his wife

Chapter 134: Deceased Wife (22)



Chapter 134: Deceased Wife (22)

The three middle-aged people might have emotional entanglements, but adding a genius in his twenties to the mix makes it seem out of place.

Sheh's imagination ran wild: "Could Manager Zhang be the daughter of Zhang Anguo and Wang Luan? Zhang Anguo cheated on her so many times, so she used a homophonic surname to avoid arousing suspicion?"

"According to what you said, Wang Luan's husband must also have the surname Zhang so that people wouldn't find it strange. This is too coincidental. Also, it's been more than 20 years. It remains to be verified whether Wang Luan was willing or forced..."

"Shh." Sheh suddenly pressed his finger on Shi Jinzhe's mouth and pulled him slowly back to the door. "Someone is coming."

The room was dark again. Shech blocked the door and looked out through the peephole.

There was a dull sound of footsteps in the empty corridor.

A red figure passed by the door, wearing a red shirt, red skirt, red high heels, and long hair draped over her shoulders.

The man was holding a snake skin in his hand. Compared with the five snake skins in the other rooms, this one was obviously larger.

Manager Zhang, dressed in red, entered the corridor in the dark and entered the narrow door next door with ease, leaving behind only a strong smell of incense.

Without carpet to absorb sound, the two soon heard the "click, click, click" sound of high heels hitting the floor tiles in the next room.

Shi Jinzhe whispered, "The door lock in that room is broken. She will soon know that someone has been here. We have to leave."

The clues in this copy are too fragmented and they haven't finished exploring them yet. Exposing them too early will only cause all kinds of trouble.

Once someone notices it, especially if it arouses suspicion from other players, Sheh will have to deal with it.

"Got it. Hold me tight." Sheh clenched his broken hand, opened the door and went in the direction where Manager Zhang came from.

Shi Jinzhe couldn't see anything and could only follow her. When they turned a small corner, the sound of high heels disappeared.

Sheh heard the slight sound of a door closing and realized that it was Manager Zhang returning the same way and chasing him.

She whispered to Shi Jinzhe, "Going out this way is another fire escape with stairs. Let's go up."

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. The two men quickly walked into the corridor where the fire door had been removed and moved upstairs.

The rusty handrail was covered with dust. When he reached the fourth floor, Sheh stopped.

There was a short-haired man at the stairs. He looked to be less than 30 years old. There were heavy marks on his neck, which did not look like they were caused by an ordinary rope.

He was lying on the ground, looking up with his head tilted to the side. His mouth was sewn shut, and only a little bit of his eyeball could be seen turned to the corner of his eye, the rest was all white.

Sheh remained silent. This was a lousy dungeon. He hadn’t figured out the first two things, and now here came a third one.

Shi Jinzhe couldn't see clearly and didn't know that there was a male ghost wandering at the entrance of the corridor four meters in front of him.

He only felt Sheh stop for two seconds, and then pulled him through a gust of cold wind.

Sheh pushed the male ghost into the wall and couldn't get him out even with his hands.

After removing the obstacles blocking their way, the two entered the blocked corridor on the fourth floor.

When she passed the second abandoned guest room, she smelled a very strong smell of incense ash in the room.

When he released his folded hand, Shekh changed his tail, opened the door, and quickly rolled up his tail, taking away everything on the table in the blink of an eye.

After passing through the narrow door of the operating room and returning to the normal corridor, Sheh was sure that Liu Run was lying to him.

She returned to room 403 as quickly as possible, threw her things on the bed, turned around and went to deal with Liu Run.

"Wait, wait." Shi Jinzhe held her back, "Have you forgotten that you petrified him and Cheng Youan? Neither of them can move, so how can they open the door for you?"

……

Sheh had actually forgotten about this.

"I just felt a chilly aura. Did we run into a ghost when we came back?"

Shehhe drew out the tone and hummed indifferently.

Seeing this, Shi Jinzhe came up with a way to discourage her: "How about this, you throw that ghost into 409 and stay with them for a night. Liu Run's teammates have to look for him anyway, so we just wait there and we can get some new information by then."

Shekh only spent three seconds thinking and immediately agreed to the proposal.

There was a constant sound of high heels in the corridor. Manager Zhang failed to catch up with the suspicious person, so he could only slow down and go back to the second floor.

After she left, Sheh went out alone, walked through the operating room, and returned to the stairs on the fourth floor.

The male ghost who was slapped against the wall was lying on the wall like a gecko. Sheh forcibly pulled him down and sent him to the door of room 409.

"Go in and scare people. If you can't scare them to death, you will die."

The male ghost shook his head, not knowing whether he understood or not.

Shehe kicked the ghost in, and it passed through the wall in less than three seconds. Cheng Youan's terrified screams were heard from inside.

I returned to the room refreshed, and Shi Jinzhe had already picked up those things and was looking at them.

Sheh asked, "Did you find anything?"

"Yes," Shi Jinzhe held up a cut newspaper for her, "Manager Zhang's father, Zhang Xun, looks very much like her, they are simply cut from the same mold. She and Zhang Anguo are definitely not father and daughter."

Sheh took the photo and they really looked alike. Zhang Xun had some feminine features and when he stood next to the 18-year-old Manager Zhang, they looked like copy and paste.

Shi Jinzhe: "There is also a photo album here, which contains many photos of the manager and her father."

Sheh opened the photo album and the first old photo was of Manager Zhang when she was a baby. She was held in her parents’ arms, and there was the warmth of a family of three.

Next to the shooting time in the lower right corner of the photo, someone wrote a sentence: "Xiao Wang is eight months old and this is his first family photo."

Looking further back, I saw that every photo in the album had a recording phrase written on it.

There are photos of Manager Zhang when she was three years old, holding a book and a certificate in her hand; there are also photos of her when she was five years old, eating watermelon with watermelon seeds all over her face.

In addition to a small amount of daily photos, there are more photos of Manager Zhang winning competitions, having his arm around Wang Luan's shoulders, and taking photos with various people.

These photos show that before Manager Zhang was nine years old, her life was always occupied by studying.

But the unchanging content began to change after she was nine years old.

In the album, Wang Luan's appearance frequency gradually decreased. The photos changed from boring study to travel photos of going to parks, aquariums, and museums.

In these photos, the accompanying person is father Zhang Xun.

In the last photo, Sheh saw a special group photo.

[Xiao Wang has turned eighteen. This is our second family photo in seventeen years.]

In this family photo, there are only Zhang Xun and Zhang Wang; their mother Wang Luan was cut out.

Sheh: "It seems that Manager Zhang doesn't like her mother, Wang Luan."

"Indeed, her father Zhang Xun is more important to her, and this feeling is far stronger than that of Wang Luan." Shi Jinzhe could understand this mentality to some extent.

It’s not because someone took her out to play, but because someone was accompanying her with all her heart. No matter how smart Manager Zhang was, she was just a child of a few years old. How could she not be eager to go out and play?

Her father enriched her boring childhood and the memories left behind are all beautiful.

Shi Jinzhe summed up what he had gained tonight: "Zhang Xun was the first of these clue characters to pass away. Now we can be sure that the deaths of Zhang Anguo and Wang Luan were not caused by him.

Eliminating one possibility, that is, Zhang Anguo was bitten to death by a snake, and his death was closely related to Lu Xiaohui, who believed in snakes.

Wang Luan lived in the hotel for a period of time, and her death was also related to the couple. It is possible that she died because of a dispute with Zhang Anguo due to her beauty, or it is possible that she was killed because she had a conflict with Lu Xiaohui due to poor social skills.

As for Manager Zhang, it is not clear how much affection she has for Wang Luan, but given that she doesn’t like Wang Luan, she was able to stay in the Peace Hotel for so long. I tend to think that there is more going on with her than this.”
