Infinite Murder Mystery Game: The Beauty with a Delicate Palm

Su Mian has to thank Si Shi (9-11 AM). If she hadn't accidentally wandered into the 18th-floor shelter that day, she probably wouldn't have guessed.

The 18th floor is a one-way street; you can only enter but not exit, but you can exit through the emergency exit.

In addition, the gamble I took this morning has confirmed that the stairwell is very safe.

"I used the emergency exit this morning."

Zhang Shuozhi sighed, "Emergency passage... they even play word games."

"Let's stop discussing it now and get there quickly."

Su Mian only then realized that although her shirt wasn't stained with blood, a piece of it had been torn off. She tied a knot in the tear, revealing her fair and slender waist.

Almost instantly, Su Mian felt a strong gaze, carrying a warning and aggression.

A sudden gust of wind blew in through the window, and Wang Yuxuan, who was standing at the front, exclaimed in surprise and shielded his eyes with his hand.

The knot that Su Mian had just tied was blown away again.

……

She looked up in confusion at the surveillance camera, which flashed red as if in response to her.

Time is of the essence, and Su Mian shouldn't think too much.

Just as the group was about to turn around and head towards the emergency exit, they suddenly heard a loud bang on the door.

Su Mian saw out of the corner of her eye that the emergency exit door was closed, and through the crack, she caught a glimpse of a white coat figure turning around hastily.

Zhang Shuozhi realized something and immediately rushed over, grabbing the emergency exit door with disbelief in his eyes.

"It's locked from the inside."

"It's Zhou Ruochuan."

Su Mian murmured to herself, her gaze fixed on the crack in the door, her eyes flickering slightly.

It was so strange. She knew her eyesight and observation skills weren't that good, but just now her gaze was fixed on that spot, and she recognized Zhou Ruochuan at a glance, even just a fleeting image in the gap.

Chen Mo was furious and kicked the door. "Is he out of his mind?"

"No one will understand this move in the next 500 years."

Zhang Shuozhi waved his hand, completely at a loss. "What do we do? Are we just going to wait here to die?"

"He can't be the murderer, can he? If he kills us, he'll win."

Wang Yuxuan found it hard to believe; he couldn't think of any other explanation for Zhou Ruochuan's motives.

He had encountered such extreme players before, who believed that killing everyone would guarantee victory.

But that's too cruel and extremely difficult; almost no one can actually do it.

Su Mian: "No, I'm more inclined to think it's Su Tang."

"Su Tang?!"

The crowd gasped in surprise, while Chen Mo's expression remained unreadable.

"Qing Ci is right. Zhou Ruochuan is a newcomer and doesn't have that kind of brain. He's more likely to be bewitched by Su Tang."

"So what do we do now?"

Wang Zeyu paced anxiously, while Su Mian looked out the corridor window.

"I have a solution."

-

the other side.

QQ –

The man stood in the doorway, tapping lightly on the doorframe with his fingers.

My heart was still pounding from the thrill of running and locking the door.

He hid his slightly trembling hands in the pockets of his white coat.

"You did a great job, Wakawa-nii-san."

A sweet voice rang out, like a warm current dispelling some of the surrounding chill.

Zhou Ruochuan looked up and saw Su Tang staring at him.

Her face was flushed from running, and her eyes were bright and full of trust and encouragement.

His genuine smile eased his tense nerves a little.

The reason he followed Su Tang's advice and locked the emergency exit door was because she was like a ray of light.

That day, Qing Ci and the others came to see him and asked him many questions, which made Zhou Ruochuan very flustered.

Did they think he was the murderer?

Thinking of this, Zhou Ruochuan panicked completely. He desperately wanted to prove that he was not the murderer, but they told him not to panic, that they just wanted to collect clues.

He couldn't do it at all. In fact, after the others left, he repeatedly gave the wrong medicine to the patient, and he was so anxious that he almost cried.

In reality, Zhou Ruochuan was just a white-collar worker, whose mentality had been distorted by the pressure of the workplace and whose ability to withstand pressure was practically non-existent. At that moment, he almost collapsed.

Su Tang appeared like a ray of light, stood in front of him, and gave him a handkerchief.

"You look scared. Are you alright?"

She smiled, her eyes crinkling.

"I know you're not the murderer."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ruochuan burst into tears, nodded impatiently, and took the handkerchief.

"I...I don't know why they're asking me so many questions..."

Zhou Ruochuan sobbed, and Su Tang sighed.

"Because you've become a target, how pathetic."

"The player with the most votes will die. Nobody wants to die, so they're looking for a scapegoat. Nothing beats a newcomer."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ruochuan's eyes immediately filled with fear, while Su Tang curled the corners of her lips into a smile.

"Don't be afraid... I'll protect you from now on. I can't stand players who bully newbies."

-

"They... must be trapped for now, right?"

Zhou Ruochuan spoke uncertainly, his voice carrying a hint of hesitation and a desire for reassurance.

"Su Tang, are we really doing the right thing? Shouldn't we all be looking for clues together?"

At this moment, facing Zhou Ruochuan's question, Su Tang slightly furrowed her delicate eyebrows, her face showing just the right amount of worry and a hint of lingering fear.

"I didn't want this either... but Ruochuan-nii, think about how they questioned you that day. I really feel indignant for you. If you really want to be a scapegoat, then pretend I didn't say anything."

As she spoke, she subconsciously took a step closer to Zhou Ruochuan, as if seeking protection, looking up at him with clear yet dependent eyes.

"We're just giving them a moment to calm down and buy them some time to search for clues on their own. Only by finding the real killer can we save everyone, right?"

"I believe in you, Brother Ruochuan. If the two of us work together, we'll have a better chance of success."

Her tone was so sincere, and her analysis sounded reasonable.

Looking into her clear and untroubled eyes, Zhou Ruochuan's slightest doubt vanished instantly.

Yes, in this strange place, Su Tang was the only person who took the initiative to help him and trusted him.

She looks so delicate and in need of protection, how could she possibly lie to him?

"You're right," Zhou Ruochuan nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to appear more reliable. "So, what should we do next?"

Su Tang immediately flashed a bright smile, as if his support reassured her.

She gently tugged at his sleeve, pointing to another exit of the storage room.

"Let's leave here first. I know another place that might hold crucial clues. Follow me, and be careful."

She took the lead and walked forward with light steps, her ponytail swaying slightly behind her head, bright and energetic.

Zhou Ruochuan followed closely behind her, watching her back, a surge of protectiveness welling up in his heart and a determination to keep her alive.

He didn't see at all that Su Tang, who was walking in front of him, had the same sweet and innocent smile on her face the moment she turned her back to him.

Only a faint trace of indifference, a hint of triumph in his eyes, flickered in the depths of his gaze.
