Deadly Game: Almighty Boss’s Guide to Making Money

Chapter 1261. Midnight Return (1)

“That should be it.” Guo Yuelang took a sip of juice. “After so long, we’ve finally made a breakthrough.”

"Luckily, there's Bai Ye," Huang Jingjing said.

"Jin Shujiu really talks about everything," Lin Xi teased with a smile.

Seeing that Huang Jingjing and Guo Yuelang were both calm and composed, she smiled again.

"Alright, I know you all have someone you can talk to about anything now."

"No, I haven't told Zhang Yutong about our affair," Huang Jingjing said.

"You're on holiday, will you be meeting with Zhang Yutong?" Lin Xi asked.

"Of course."

"Once my sister's foot is healed, the two of us will go out for a stroll."

The three of them talked for a while longer, and after Guo Yuelang finished eating, they went out to the street.

Although "buying things" was just an excuse, Guo Yuelang still went to buy some food and other items that he needed to bring into the dungeon.

I bought Lin Bei another gift.

Of course, he knew that what Lin Bei wanted more was an autographed photo of him and Gong Heng, and he had already prepared it.

Lin Xi and Huang Jingjing ordered a few more dishes from a restaurant near their home and had them delivered.

It was already noon when they returned to Linxi's house.

The eldest sister also cooked several dishes, and with the ones delivered from the restaurant, the table was full.

"Luckily, the portions were decent, otherwise, my older sister and I would have had to eat leftovers again tonight," Huang Jingjing said with a smile.

"Everyone, eat more, don't leave any for us," Lin Bei said with a smile, then asked Guo Yuelang, "Can you stay a few more days this time?"

"My flight is tomorrow night, and I still have to work when I get back," Guo Yuelang laughed. "My fans are waiting for my live stream."

“It’s not like you broadcast every day,” Lin Bei said. “We would like you to broadcast every day, even if you don’t sing, just talking to us would be fine.”

"Haha, I'm a big fan of yours," Huang Jingjing joked.

"Tell me when the live stream is, I want to watch it too," the older woman said with a smile. "Who wouldn't want to take a second look at such a handsome young man?"

"Luckily, Xin Xin isn't socially awkward, otherwise, you guys would have made it impossible for her to sit still," Lin Xi said. "Let's eat!"

The group ate and chatted, and before they knew it, more than an hour had passed.

Seeing that they couldn't take a nap, Lin Xi, Huang Jingjing, and Guo Yuelang returned to the hotel.

Take an afternoon nap.

The hotel has places for them to stay. Lin Xi's house only has two bedrooms, and the bed in the study is used by her older sister. Although Guo Yuelang doesn't mind sleeping on the sofa, it's still not very convenient.

Lin Xi and Huang Jingjing slept all afternoon until Yu Chen came over, at which point they finally got up.

The group went to the hotel restaurant for dinner, then returned to their room and began packing the items needed for the dungeon.

Actually, there's not much to organize.

Apart from Guo Yuelang, who bought new water and food, everyone else brought what they had brought yesterday.

The group sat on the sofa, with Bai Yueming still seated in the middle.

—It's another group entering a dungeon.

—There's no Xiaobai this time!

—If a newbie doesn't want to come in, they don't have to. Why are you saying all this?

—Yu Chen, the beautiful lady, didn't team up with everyone yesterday.

—Yu Chen entered the instance alone.

——Where is this?

Platform?
—The platform lights are quite bright at night.

Lin Xi looked at the train ticket in her hand and smiled as she spoke.

"Are they trying to get us to take the train?"

“This ticket is a bit strange,” Quan Quan said. “There’s no departure station or destination on the ticket, only the departure time.”

The ticket does not show the departure station or the arrival station, only the words "departure at 20:00".

There's another line: "Only with clear car windows can one make the journey home."

"Car window?" Huang Jingjing looked at Lin Xi. "You specifically mentioned the car window, could it be an improved version of that dungeon that eliminated so many players?"

"How many players are there in total?" Lin Xi asked, looking at the live stream.

- 120.

—120. —There are quite a few people here!

—When there are more people, more people are likely to be eliminated.

—At least they allowed the use of items yesterday. Some dungeons don't prohibit the use of items that allow you to clear the dungeon directly.

—What kind of instance is this? Nobody says.

—To be honest, sometimes I find that emotionless electronic voice quite annoying, but it's also quite scary without it.

—It would be great if an NPC could come and give an introduction!

"This train is so old!" A cheerful, childlike voice came from behind.

Lin Xi turned around and saw a little boy holding a teddy bear with a torn corner, looking up at them.

They look to be about seven or eight years old.

—Holy crap, no way, such a young player?

—Is this game so inhumane? Letting kids in?

—There probably won't be any more children coming in the future!

—I just wandered around for a bit, but I didn't see any children!
—You're so fast? You've watched over a hundred live streams already?

--No.

—Then it could be a player.

Just as Lin Xi was about to ask the little boy a question, a clear voice interrupted.

"Old things are more interesting! Look at this car body, it might be a retro model!"

A little girl, swinging her bright yellow backpack strap, hopped over to the two of them. Her train ticket was folded into a small square and stuffed into her jeans pocket.

"My name is Xiaohong, what are your names?"

"My name is Xiaoming," the little boy replied.

"This name is too casual; it seems like he's not a player," Bai Yueming remarked with a smile.

—You can't discriminate against vegetables by their names.

—The name "vegetable" is quite casual.

—No, no, no, it's not casual at all. His name is Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, and Purple Vegetables, and his game name is Black and White.

—Well, vegetables aren't just any vegetables.

Even if they aren't players, bringing in two kids will increase the difficulty for players 1, 2, and 3.

--you do not say!
Lin Xi looked around.

Besides the six of them and two children, there were many other people waiting for the bus.

It's unclear whether it's a player or an NPC.

It's unclear whether the players are all waiting for the bus, or if some are already on it.

Just as she was observing everyone, a man of medium height and in his thirties walked over.

“Brother Lichun.” Lin Xi’s eyes lit up.

"Hello!" Lichun greeted gently. "It's nice to meet acquaintances."

"You two know each other?" Bai Yueming asked.

“Yes, my companions from the previous dungeon,” Huang Jingjing replied.

"The car door is open," Quan Quan reminded him.

The train doors slid open with a hiss, and a gust of cold air carrying the smell of rust rushed out of the train.

Lin Xi glanced at Xiao Hong and Xiao Ming, then moved aside.

"You two get in the car first."

"Thank you, sister," Xiaohong said politely.

Several people boarded the car one after another. The interior was quite normal, neither too hot nor too cold, and the lights were bright.

This is a sleeper car with two berths, upper and lower.

Lin Xi calculated that if the carriage was full, there would be more than a hundred people.

However, there aren't many people doing this yet.

Lin Xi and his companions checked their tickets and found their sleeper berths.

She shared bunks 7 and 8 with Yu Chen, Guo Yuelang, and Li Chun. She and Yu Chen shared the lower bunk, while Guo Yuelang and Li Chun shared the upper bunk.
