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

Chapter 131: Deceased Wife (19)

Liu Runguang felt depressed at the thought. Although five million was not a big deal for him, he felt uncomfortable no matter how he thought about it, because he had been competing with others for several days for something that other people didn't need.

But he didn't dare to show his frustration. If someone didn't even want the three-character card, there must be someone better.

The room for six people was too crowded, so he tried to reduce his presence and hid in the corner.

"What are you hiding there for? Where are your clues?" Sheh leaned against the mirror. Behind him stood three big men over 1.80 meters tall, like creditors who came to collect debts with their own bodyguards.

Although none of the bodyguards can fight as well as she does, her aura is very strong.

"What do you want to hear?" Liu Run asked in a flattering manner.

However, as soon as he finished asking, his rubbing hands turned into half-petrified statues, with only the area above his chest still moving.

The prop hidden in his palm was also sealed by the stone. He hurriedly called for a stop: "I say, say... Don't petrify me."

"I want them all." Sheh reduced the degree of his petrification, just like Cheng Youan, sealing only the big leg.

The props fell to the ground and were picked up by Shi Jinzhe in a good mood.

"If you don't behave, I will crush all the petrified parts of you into powder and make them irrecoverable."

After a beating, Liu Run found that he could recover and stopped playing tricks.

"My two teammates didn't find much information. They found out from other residents that Manager Zhang had published a book about parenting."

"The resident said it was a book from a few years ago. He bought it. It was a bestseller in Heping Town for a while. Many parents would buy a copy. But no one expected that Manager Zhang did not go abroad to study and become a scientist as described in the book, but came to work as a hotel manager instead."

"Many people in the town felt sorry for her and thought she should have a brighter future. Later, Lu Xiaohui, the proprietress of the Peace Hotel, said that she couldn't accept the death of both her parents, so she didn't want to be too far away from home. She came to the hotel just to stay with her parents."

"My teammates also found out that Manager Zhang's father died while saving people, and the town government commended her. Some people say she is the daughter of a hero."

Shi Jinzhe: "How long has her father been dead?"

Manager Zhang looks to be about 25 or 26 years old and has been working at the hotel for five years.

Then the time of her parents' death does not match that of Zhang Anguo's death three years ago. Now we can rule out that she has no relationship with Zhang Anguo.

Liu Run: "It was said that when she was 17 or 18 years old, I think it was the day she turned 18, I heard that at the scene where her father rescued someone, the police also found a newly bought crystal bracelet, which was a birthday gift for her."

He kept touching his petrified legs because of nervousness. Liu Run asked Shehe, "Is it okay?"

"No, you didn't come back last night either. Where's the news you got?"

Liu Run felt depressed and had to continue, "I... I found out about Lu Xiaohui's legs. She couldn't stand up because of a car accident three years ago. She had to sit in a wheelchair. Then three years ago, Zhang Anguo was bitten by a snake and died."

"He said he was having an affair with his mistress in the hotel, and he woke up with an erection the next day. The woman was so scared that she moved out overnight and never came back to Heping Town. After he died, only the disabled Lu Xiaohui was left to manage the hotel alone."

Shi Jinzhe asked Liu Run: "So Lu Xiaohui got into a car accident first, and then Zhang Anguo died?"

"Yes, that's what the resident told me. Three months before Zhang Anguo's death, Lu Xiaohui was in a car accident."

Shi Jinzhe responded: "Well, go on."

"Also, I heard the sound of high heels in the operating room yesterday. After the sound appeared, I was locked inside the operating room from outside. Then in the morning, Manager Zhang opened the door and took me away."

Liu Run lowered his head weakly. "There's really nothing else. It's only been a day and a night. The clues we can find are limited. This is already a lot."

Sheh was reluctantly satisfied, but he still didn't understand a thing. "Did you contact your teammates outside the operation room? Did Manager Zhang find you himself?"

"No, I didn't have any props to make contact, and I was afraid of disturbing something, so I waited until morning, hoping that my teammates would come to pick me up. But unexpectedly, Manager Zhang came first. She said she was here to check on the work, and that's how she accidentally discovered me."

Liu Run said earnestly: "There is really nothing else."

Sheh asked again, "Do you have any other questions?"

"No, let's go."

As long as Cheng Youan is here, Liu Run won't run around aimlessly. Let him stay alive first and wait for their teammates to continue delivering messages.

The four of them left the room and walked around the fourth, fifth and sixth floors together. Relying on Shekh's hearing, Shi Jinzhe learned that there were a total of 56 people staying in the Peace Hotel.

In addition to the masked woman, there was also an old man who told them gossip during the day and several indigenous people on the sixth floor.

These people have no pre-bedtime activities; they are all preparing to fall asleep.

There were about ten people staying on the fifth floor for team building.

The focus of discussion is either the neurotic client, the boss who has nothing better to do, or the incomprehensible colleagues.

Occasionally, there would be some emotional topics like you love me, I love him, and she loves her, but no one mentioned that crazy colleague.

In addition to the 24 people who came to play the game, there were three other rooms on the fourth floor where people lived.

There was no sound coming from the room of those three people, maybe they were asleep.

The players were smarter than each other. They were there but didn't say anything. I thought they might be communicating by handwriting.

After wandering around for an hour, they went down to the third floor.

Meng Chengxi and Xiao Fang stood at the stairs, "There are three of us, and you two?"

Shi Jinzhe: "Okay, go back to your room after checking, don't linger in the corridor. There must be a reason why no one lives on the second and third floors, and we don't know what's going on with those high heels, so be cautious."

After giving the instructions, Shi Jinzhe and Shehe went down the stairs to the second floor.

The entire corridor was stained black. As no one lived there, the power switch on the second floor was turned on. The dark road made it impossible for Shi Jinzhe to see anything more than one meter away.

He rummaged through his prop backpack and found candles for the memorial service and a lighter that always lit.

This is the prop obtained in the previous scene, and it is also the only prop that can be used for lighting.

Shi Jinzhe chose a lighter. Firstly, the flame was small and could be turned off at any time, unlike candles which would leave traces and smells after burning for a long time. Secondly, the name of the memorial candle sounded unlucky, so he decided to keep it for now.

The blue-purple flames flickered, and a blurry light enveloped the two men's heads.

The lighter only illuminates a very small area, and the light at the edge trembles, like a dandelion shaking in the wind.

After walking just a few meters into the corridor on the second floor, Shi Jin turned around and was enveloped by darkness again.

Sheh can see at night, so the unknown darkness is not a problem for her, but she still chooses to walk side by side with Shi Jinzhe.

In the gloomy corridor, the two men moved as quietly as possible, and Sheh corroded the lock of the first door in the dead silence.

It was empty inside and covered with thick dust. Shi Jinzhe looked down and saw obvious footprints where they had walked.

"We have to explore this place tonight. If we destroy too much, it will definitely attract attention tomorrow."

"Got it." Sheh left the first room and opened the door of the second room opposite, but it was still empty.

The third room, the fourth room, the fifth room, the sixth room...

It wasn't until the seventh room that something different appeared in the room.

A string of Five Emperors' Coins made of a red rope and five copper coins was placed in the center of the room, with a snake skin next to it.
