Infinite Murder Mystery Game: The Beauty with a Delicate Palm

Hearing a sound behind her, Lü Meng was startled and slowly turned around. She saw a dark figure swooping down from the beam, its claws grabbing her shoulder hard, tearing the fabric and ripping her skin open.

She screamed, her voice swallowed by the cawing of crows. Blood splattered on the turnstile glass, and the back of her hand was instantly pecked until the white bone was exposed. Her fingernails were torn off by the roots and fell to the ground with a soft, crisp sound.

The black beak probed in again and again, pulling out the intestines, tearing them off, and swallowing them.

Her shoes slipped in the blood, her legs twitched, but she could no longer kick away the densely packed bodies.

Upon hearing the screams, no one dared to turn around; everyone simply quickened their pace and boarded the bus.

As we entered carriage number 12, the last carriage, the train started moving the moment the doors closed.

Ruan Ruan breathed a sigh of relief after completing her mission. She looked at Su Mian with a complicated expression, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

The tickets indicate the seats, and two people sit facing each other.

"Now let's arrange the accommodations."

Wang Yan walked to the middle of the aisle.

"The sleeper berths are for two people, but now that someone has died, there is one person staying in a single berth."

Without giving everyone a chance to discuss, she directly issued orders: "Su Mian and I will share a room, Ruan Ruan and Wei Xiaowei will share a room, Zhou Yunfeng will have a room by himself, and Jiang Hong and Ye Shuheng will share a room."

"Class monitor, I want to live with Su Mian."

Ruan Ruan spoke in a low voice, clearly indicating her intention to form a group, but Wang Yan was not going to give her that opportunity.

"You guys stay out late at night, especially you who always go to bars and nightclubs. We don't play games, that's all."

"But……"

"It's okay."

Su Mian interrupted the two of them.

This allocation suits her perfectly; otherwise, it would be difficult for her to carry out the murder.

She just didn't understand why Wang Yan wanted to live with her, even though she knew she harbored resentment towards her.

Since the main person in question had spoken, Ruan Ruan stopped talking and everyone sat back down. Zhou Yunfeng, who was at the front, frowned.

"Why is the door in the middle of this train carriage closed?"

Upon hearing this, everyone, whether they were playing on their phones or sleeping, looked up. Only then did they notice that the door at the very front leading to the next carriage was closed.

Jiang Hong: "Hiss... This doesn't make sense."

Su Mian stared at the door, thinking of mission three in the script: after entering the train, please do your best to reach the voting area at the front of the train, otherwise, players who fail to reach the front of the train on the day of the vote will also die.

Su Mian: "We need to find a way to open this door."

Wang Yan: "Yes, the locomotive is the voting point. We need to move forward until we reach the locomotive."

She immediately began to organize everyone, "You go to the back seats, you go to the front and look, I'm going to study that door."

After saying that, everyone set off. Before long, someone found a map. The players gathered around and discovered that it was a diagram of a train, with the function of each carriage clearly indicated.

Carriage 12 is a hard seat car; Carriage 11 is a dining car; Carriage 10 is a sleeper car.

Carriage 9, hard seat car; Carriage 8, dining car; Carriage 7, sleeper car.

……

Similarly, the twelve carriages are divided into four groups of three, each containing a hard-seat carriage, a dining car, and a sleeper car.

Zhou Yunfeng: "So... every three carriages make up our day's activity time, and if we want to go to the next carriage, we have to open the door in some way?"

Everyone nodded in agreement with his statement.

"But how can we open the door?"

Someone asked a question, and the lights in the carriage went out instantly, startling everyone. "Quick, get back to your seats!"

Someone shouted something, and everyone rushed to their seats in a panic, stepping on each other's backs. Su Mian was sitting by the window, next to Ruan Ruan.

"Attention passengers, attention passengers—"

Suddenly, the loudspeaker on the roof of the carriage blared, a mechanical female voice devoid of any emotion.

"Welcome aboard this train. This train has twelve carriages, each with its own specific rules. Please abide by the rules and have a pleasant journey."

"Please complete the test in the hard-seat carriage before you can unlock the dining car and sleeper car."

The announcement screen above the door connecting the carriages suddenly lit up with red text.

Next stop: Sunshine Orphanage

? !

Everyone stared blankly at the broadcast screen, except for Su Mian, whose pupils contracted slightly, and Tian Xin felt a tremor in his heart.

ding dong...

ding dong...

What was that sound?

Apart from the noise of the train passing over the tracks, a faint, nursery rhyme-like sound came from the doorway. Suddenly, there was a loud crash, as if something had been hit.

By the dim light, Su Mian could see the expressions of the other three people at the table. Zhou Yunfeng across from her was clearly chattering as he spoke in a low voice.

"That...that thing bumped into me."

Just as everyone seemed to freeze in place, Su Mian lifted the tablecloth and looked down.

It was a small train toy emitting a red glow, similar to Thomas the Tank Engine. The engine had an expression, smiling with its large, arched cheeks and glass eyes looking at Su Mian.

The front of the car kept hitting Zhou Yunfeng's feet.

Su Mian straightened up and said, "Move your feet away."

Zhou Yunfeng kept shaking his head, "I...I dare not."

Jiang Hong, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him.

The feet moved aside, and the little train started whirring and circling around the crowd again, clearly still searching for a suitable person.

After circling around the table at Su Mian, the car didn't stop and moved to the other side. Ruan Ruan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and slumped into her chair.

The three people on the other side, Ye Shuheng and Wei Xiaowei, tensed up instantly.

tick tock...

tick tock...

The train finally stopped beneath Wang Yan's feet.

Wang Yan froze in disbelief, her breath trembling as she looked down at her feet, gently shaking her head and swaying her legs, trying to scare away the toy train. The music stopped.

A short figure appeared in the corridor, with its toes slightly turned inward. The red light shone on the figure, but there was no shadow.

The little boy looked up, his all-black pupils wide open, and smiled ahead, his cheekbones bulging out, bearing an eight-tenths resemblance to the face of the train engine. He didn't say a word, but stretched out his hand forward.

The task was already obvious. The players all looked at Wang Yan, who shrank back, her face pale, and remained motionless for a long time.

No one knew if the child would get impatient and suddenly explode, so Ye Shuheng finally couldn't help but urge her, "Give it to her quickly."

"Squad leader, hurry up and go."

Ruan Ruan spoke in a trembling voice, but she still didn't hear anything from Wang Yan. Who knew if something might suddenly rush out on the way?

She suddenly turned her head sharply and shouted in that direction.

"Sleepover".

Su Mian was almost asleep when she suddenly heard someone calling her, so she looked up.

"You...you go in my place."
