Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 42 Please follow the rules of the game

"Dark cuisine?"

Duan Mingyuan didn't even raise his head. The severed finger in his mouth made his speech unclear. "I just don't like wasting food, and I like to try new things."

Jiu Yue did not answer immediately. She squinted her eyes and stared at the ketchup on the corner of Duan Mingyuan's mouth. She had accidentally put the ketchup on the corner of his mouth.

She is a monster, her sense of taste is much more sensitive than that of humans, and she has always been absolutely confident in her taste buds.

September was very sure that the severed finger was extremely unpalatable. Even if we put aside the strange taste of maple syrup and ketchup, the production level of the maple syrup alone was so poor that it was disgusting and so sweet that it was greasy. It was obvious that the hotel completely ignored the taste of the food for the sake of publicity.

But perhaps they didn't expect that someone would find a severed finger in French fries and then put it in his mouth without batting an eyelid.

Mr. Ming Yuan, the great ogre boxer.

This nickname is becoming more and more appropriate.

Jiu Yue never expected that Mr. Ming Yuan was also a fan of dark cuisine, which directly led to the failure of her plan. According to her idea, the severed finger would be so unpalatable that it would make Mr. Ming Yuan dizzy. At that time, she would take advantage of the opportunity, give him her half-drunk Coke, and then sit next to Mr. Ming Yuan and feed him French fries with her own hands while he was looking up information.

What an ambiguous scene!

Just as she said, Mr. Mingyuan is a man with few friends and rarely has in-depth communication with the opposite sex. He has definitely never seen such a scene. At that time, she only needs to move her mouth to win Mr. Mingyuan over in one fell swoop!
But now, this severed finger has ruined everything.

Mr. Mingyuan held the severed finger in his mouth, his mind completely not on her, and he refused further feeding.

"Mr. Mingyuan."

Jiu Yue stamped her feet in anger, "Has anyone ever told you that you have a tough mouth?"

"No, my annual work evaluation is that I know how to work in a team and am good at listening to others' suggestions."

"hiss."

Whoever wrote this job evaluation must have been behind the scenes!

Don't eat?

If you don’t eat, you’ll fall down!
I eat it myself!

Jiu Yue sat down opposite Duan Mingyuan angrily, making smacking sounds with her mouth.

This time, it finally caught Duan Mingyuan's attention.

"September!"

"To!"

"Don't smack your lips when you eat. Also, can you hold the plate steady? There are crumbs all over the place!"

Duan Mingyuan's blood pressure index rose by 20 points.

This is his bed!
After making a mess in her own bed, the little fox came over to mess up his bed.

"I'm not afraid that your work will be boring."

Jiu Yue shrank her neck and spoke pitifully, the pointed ears on her head drooped listlessly, and her furry tail also wilted. The skill of pretending to be pitiful is a talent of every fox demon, and they can learn it without any practice.

Of course, she has only used this talent in front of Mr. Ming Yuan.

If someone else seemed distracted when talking to her, she would get angry and hurt them.

The Ruihu Cultivation Notes said that Ruihu's plan would not fail twice in a row. The tactic of pretending to be pitiful was very effective. Duan Mingyuan's majestic eyes softened a little, "Don't do it again."

"Mr. Mingyuan, hamburger."

Jiu Yue broke the beef burger in half and handed it to Duan Mingyuan. In the world of monsters, sharing food is a manifestation of intimacy. This time Duan Mingyuan did not refuse. He took the burger reluctantly. Under Jiu Yue's shocked gaze, he sandwiched the maple syrup finger in the burger and ate it in front of her. If you listen carefully, you can hear the crisp sound of "crunch".

Mr. Mingyuan...

Suddenly it doesn't smell good anymore.

Oh no.

Jiu Yue shook her head to calm herself down. It was all because of the severed finger. Mr. Mingyuan still smelled good.

It was time to let work ease her heavy mood. "Mr. Mingyuan, what did you find?"

"I wonder why the evil spirits create so many ghost stories."

The company has meticulously integrated all the strange stories that have arisen from the Congyun Hotel in recent years. The more Duan Mingyuan read, the more he felt that these strange stories were so detailed that they could be considered a detailed collection of settings for the Congyun Hotel.

Guests who step into the hotel feel like they have become players of a horror game.

Take "The Frame of Resurrection" as an example.

It not only describes the mechanism that triggers the portraits in the frames to come alive, but also gives "players" strategies to deal with it from the rules. The "setting collection" points out that all the people in the frames are of great significance to the Congyun Hotel, and they have complex interpersonal relationships. In game terms, there is mutual restraint between different portraits.

If the "player" accidentally resurrects one of the portraits, they must find a picture frame that "restrains" the portrait to slow them down. The newly resurrected picture frame will then continue to hunt them down until they match the restraint relationship to the founder of the Congyun Hotel - Mr. Qian Congyun, who is located in the corridor on the second floor.

If the decryption fails in the process, the "player" is blocked by the picture frame chasing them and must "sacrifice" a companion in order to delay the picture frame.

Mr. Qian Congyun’s restrained relationship is not in "The Resurrection Frame", which involves another strange story called "The Eyeless Man in the Mirror".

Each ghost story is interconnected with each other, but as long as you follow the rules of the game in the "setting collection" completely, even ordinary people can escape danger.

"But what good will this do for the evil spirits that have built their nests?"

After painstakingly formulating rules, they ultimately help ordinary people escape from their clutches.

Congyun Hotel is well-known among supernatural enthusiasts, which is bound to attract organizations or companies to set their sights on it.

"Unless, the rules of the Congyun Hotel are the rules of its ability, and also the secret of how it can manipulate so many strange stories at the same time."

According to the definition in the manuscript, the strange stories in the hotel do not fall into the category of evil spirits.

Ordinary people can recognize their presence with the naked eye and have enough time to think of countermeasures. This is obviously not the style of evil spirits.

Real evil spirits will only use their unrecognizable characteristics to move silently behind their prey and strike them through the heart when they are off guard.

“Perhaps putting these enthusiasts back is also part of improving its own capabilities.”

The information sent by Dajiang shows that the number of ghost stories originating from the Congyun Hotel is increasing every year, and there is even a group of people among the supernatural enthusiasts who specialize in compiling and revising the ghost stories of the hotel.

With the spread of circles and the Internet, there will be more and more strange stories in the Congyun Hotel, and its abilities will naturally become stronger and stronger.

Jiu Yue just sat opposite Duan Mingyuan, staring at him for a long time without saying a word.

The same thought came to her mind again.

Mr. Ming Yuan,

You must be cheating, right?
Why was he able to guess the other party's abilities almost exactly just by flipping through the information sent by Dajiang?
This is too unfair to those evil spirits who hide in the dark and work hard to cultivate their own abilities!
Mr. Ming Yuan,

If you continue like this, you will have fewer and fewer strong enemies!
