Infinite Murder Mystery Game: The Beauty with a Delicate Palm

On graduation day, Zhou Yichen confessed his feelings to her, and she accepted.

Su Mian doesn't understand what liking is. Apart from murder mystery games, it's hard for her to find anyone or anything that can interest her.

She thought that having a good feeling meant liking someone, and being moved meant liking someone, so she finally agreed.

But when they went to university, they were in different schools, and Zhou Yichen began to change. He became indifferent and impatient, and his demands started to increase.

"Mianmian, you always have that sullen face. Who else but me can stand you?"

"Mianmian, is your facial paralysis hereditary?... Ah, I was just asking, I didn't mean anything by it."

"We're already together, Mianmian. You can't expect me to act like I did when I was pursuing you."

"Why won't you let me touch you? It's no fun."

If it's meaningless, why not break up?

Su Mian later learned that Zhou Yichen had already started dating a girlfriend during his senior year of high school, and the two had even agreed to attend the same university.

She was merely a prop for Zhou Yichen to show off, a shield for his occasional need for a devoted lover persona, and a source of amusement from time to time.

"Back then, I finally won over the sickly beauty of Class 6 after two years of pursuing her."

"It doesn't seem that hard to pursue. Even someone as cold as them feels soft when you put your arm around their waist."

That day, she rushed into the university cafeteria where Zhou Yichen was, dumped food on his head, and slapped him while his friends looked on in astonishment.

The school forum was abuzz with discussion, and this incident was recorded and posted online. Zhou Yichen's girlfriend also broke up with him.

……

Everything is in the past. She only hopes that Zhou Yichen will stop provoking her. Otherwise, she will not simply slap him like before.

"My name is Kairo, I am four years old, I am of mixed race, my parents are not in the country, my father runs a casino business, and his quirk is that he likes to count sheep before going to bed."

"Is that normal?"

Zhou Yichen looked puzzled, while Wang Zhe stared at him with a look of utter despair. "You have to count to nine hundred and ninety-nine before you can go to sleep."

"puff……"

Someone chuckled, and everyone present looked at him with pity.

"My name is Xu Yiyi. I am six years old. My mother has passed away, and my father is unable to take care of me, so he sent me here. My quirk is that I like to wear women's clothing."

The last sentence was perhaps a little difficult to say, and the boy lowered his head after speaking.

Su Mian glanced at him a couple more times.

He was the only one present who admitted to being a literal orphan, abandoned by his family.

"Ding, ding."

After the last person was introduced, the countdown on the electronic clock instantly reset to zero.

There was a knock at the door, and a plump woman in an apron stood there with a kind and gentle smile on her lips.

If you didn't see those gouged-out, empty eye sockets.

Traces of blood and fibers remained in the dark, empty cavity.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Fish Hat was scared half to death. He shrank back into the corner, trembling as he covered his eyes, his teeth chattering.

"Children, it's dinner time."

"Come quickly, come to Grandma's."

The old woman's tone softened, as if she knew she had frightened the newcomer.

She slowly wiped her hands on her apron, then stretched out her aged, yellow-spotted hands to the crowd, her eye sockets staring blankly at them.

The air froze; no one dared to step forward.

After waiting a few minutes, Su Mian stood up, put the candy DM gave her into her bag, picked up the script, and took the old lady's hand.

The old woman was surprised for a moment, her breath trembled, and she reached out with her other hand to gently stroke Su Mian's hand, as if she were caressing a precious treasure.

"Good boy...good, good..."

Seeing this, the others followed.

[Those four idiots! What are the NPCs afraid of when they're just following the plot? The old lady is so kind, yet she's made to put on a one-woman show.]

"...How can you still talk in my head?"

Su Mian was led by the old man towards the restaurant.

[Mianmian, because the script is in your pocket, I can communicate with you at any time within a certain range.]

Su Mian wanted to ask more questions, but the old woman beside her spoke up. She looked distressed and spoke softly.

"Daughters, I won't take you inside. The kids are making a fuss, and my body can't handle it."

"It's okay."

Su Mian gently released the old woman's hand. The old woman seemed a little reluctant, her fingertips lingering in the air for two seconds before letting go.

She pushed open the restaurant door and was about to step inside when Wang Zhe swore.

"Holy shit!"

A child, hanging upside down and bound hand and foot, fell from above. His hair was so long that it fell to the ground, and his face was smeared with red liquid, which was dripping onto the ground. His entire face looked as if it had been corroded and melted away.

Su Mian's breathing quickened for two seconds, and she took a step back.

Suddenly, all the children in the restaurant burst into laughter and began singing a strange nursery rhyme in unison.

"The moonlight is bright, and my heart is filled with unease."

"The younger sister sings while hiding at the bottom of the well"

"A new friend every day"

"Come down and play hide-and-seek with me."

The bizarre "welcome ceremony" left everyone except Su Mian looking so pale they had no appetite.

Su Mian bent down and picked up the child, only to find it was just a doll painted with red paint. She held up the doll and shook it, asking, "Is the little sister you sing about in your song her?"

The child with braided pigtails standing at the front cheered happily.

She was wearing a pink tulle cake dress, her face was covered in freckles, and she looked like the leader of the group of children.

"Migo, you're so clever! I'm going to share the candy the headmaster gave me with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another piece of candy appeared in Su Mian's pocket.

"What's this candy for?"

[This is a points-earning item, Mianmian. Eating it will give you an extra 100 points, but since you're not feeling well, I suggest you eat it when you have low blood sugar.]

How did you know I have low blood sugar?

【I'm a dedicated and hardworking detective assistant! I gathered all your information before even coming here, so you should be grateful!】

Go ask around outside; which detective's assistant isn't a robot? They're always telling you to switch to a human, making you press seven or eight buttons.

Su Mian: "..."

Well, in that sense, she got a good deal.

Su Mian sat down at the dining table amidst the constant chatter of her "cheap assistant."

All the children received the same set meal: one compartment with scrambled eggs with tomatoes, one with cucumber and shrimp, one with mixed grain rice, and a glass of milk on the side.

Wang Zhe was already starving, so he sat down and started eating dry rice, while the others didn't seem to have much of an appetite.

"Wen Zirui, eat up. What's wrong? Afraid there's poison in your food?"

Wang Zhe spoke up cheerfully, but Wen Zirui kept his head down and ignored him.

Su Mian happened to be sitting next to Wang Zhe, and she casually asked, "You all know each other?"

Wang Zhe immediately nodded. When the girl came closer, she carried a faint scent of green apples, which made his ears turn red and his speech become somewhat slurred.

"Yes, yes, the three of us are in the same dorm, and then that..."

He raised his chin, gesturing for Su Mian to look at the two people who were deliberately sitting far away, wanting to be alone.

"That's Zhou Yichen, our dorm leader. Next to him is his girlfriend, Yu Mao Mao."
