Infinite Murder Mystery Game: The Beauty with a Delicate Palm

Su Mian neither answered nor moved. She subconsciously held her breath and thought of a solution, but then she saw the firelight in the distance growing bigger and bigger.

Liang Chuchu slowly turned her head, got off her bed, and knelt reverently in the center of the balcony, as if nothing had just happened.

Su Mian breathed a sigh of relief and waited on the bed for half an hour. Liang Chuchu did not make any other moves, and Su Mian was also a little sleepy, so she simply fell asleep.

In a half-dreaming, half-awake state, she heard someone talking.

Why would he be with you?

"What's so great about you... Damn it, if I can't have you, I'll destroy you all."

[Ding-dong – The motive for the murder has been updated.]

I was woken up by an alarm clock this morning, and the whole corridor was filled with rousing and uplifting music, which gave me a headache from sleeping in.

The roommates jumped out of bed like zombies, brushing their teeth and washing up without exchanging a word.

Su Mian sat on the bed in a daze for a while, and only slowly got off the bed after everyone had packed their things and left.

My head hurts so much...

The thought of being woken up by this alarm clock every day from now on made her face fall even more, and her resentment was greater than that of a ghost.

Rubbing her throbbing temples, Su Mian finished washing up, packed her things, and went out. There were hardly any people left in the corridor.

Not far from the dormitory building stood a tall boy. Su Mian walked over and realized it was Zhou Ye.

"Good morning, Luo Yi."

Su Mian finally woke up. The man's dark pupils stared intently at her before he handed her the breakfast he was holding.

It was a sandwich and black rice bread, served with a bag of milk.

"I didn't know if you preferred sweet or savory, so I bought one of each."

Su Mian opened her mouth, not knowing what to say, and finally just whispered "thank you" before handing the milk back to him.

I am lactose intolerant.

Zhou paused, apologized, and stared at Su Mian with deep guilt in his eyes, making her feel uneasy. The two walked towards the teaching building in silence.

Based on the system's notification yesterday, Su Mian knew that her target was Liang Chuchu.

In the remaining days, Chi Luoyi grew to like Zhou Ye more and more, and the unexpected confession that day was completely forgotten by her.

She knew that Liang Chuchu had cursed her with Takanna, and that Chi Luoyi would die if she didn't kill Liang Chuchu.

But how could Chi Luoyi, who was about to end her painful high school years and usher in a wonderful life, and even have perfect love, be willing to accept it?

A dark thought emerged in her mind and quickly became uncontrollable.

The next few days were peaceful, and just like in the script, Zhou remained devoted to her, bringing her breakfast every morning and accompanying her to and from school.

They even figured out her preferences, only buying brown sugar steamed buns and vegetable porridge, and no matter how late she went out, her breakfast was always hot.

Just as rumored, Zhou Ye was gentle, considerate, and impeccable, no longer displaying the "male ghost" aura he had on the first day.

However, this is not conducive to Su Mian hiding her identity, as too many people are paying attention to them recently.

If players enter this game later, they will find out with a little inquiry that she and Zhou Ye had a romantic relationship.

This is not a good thing. Although she is relatively unknown, most people only know that Zhou Ye is in a relationship, but do not know who she is with.

So Su Mian began to subtly try to reduce the number and frequency of her meetings with Zhou Ye.

To Su Mian's dismay, it seems to have backfired.

"Was there something I didn't do well enough, Luo Yi?"

After school, he locked the girl in the empty classroom, placed her between the desks, and asked her again and again:

"do you like me?"

"……Um."

"Then you said you needed me."

"I need you."

"Say you love me."

"I love you."

Zhou Ye's solemn expression eased slightly, and he revealed his usual smile. His large hand, moving from the back of the girl's head to her ears, gently stroked her head.

"Good girl."

A tingling, itchy sensation spread across her head and ears, so comfortable that she even wanted to rub against that hand. This touch reminded her of the first instance, when Si Shi touched her in the same way. But could she bump into the same hand so many times?

Su Mian thought it was unlikely, especially since Si Shi knew she was lactose intolerant.

So she shook her head, then suddenly remembered something, and Su Mian took out the red hair tie.

"What is this?"

"amulet."

Zhou Ye smiled and explained, pointing to the silver ring on the red rope. Su Mian then realized that it was not an ordinary silver ring, but a snake ring.

The pattern on it resembles snake scales, and the green gemstone eyes are hidden inside, so one might subconsciously mistake it for an ordinary silver ring.

Su Mian glanced at it for a moment, then looked away and quickly put it in her pocket.

What the hell has happened to me lately? I keep having to deal with "snakes."

This amulet can ward off ghosts and sleep.

4399 explained, his tone filled with shock and joy.

[It's worth a full 2000 points! This NPC is quite generous.]

"2000 points? Does that mean I can redeem them?"

Su Mian grasped the key point.

【Yes, but it can ward off ghosts and monsters, so it's quite useful. Are you sure you want to exchange it for points?】

"I'm not afraid of ghosts or monsters," Su Mian said nonchalantly. "Take it and exchange it for points."

She shuddered, warning her not to see anything related to snakes again.

But what they didn't see was that the moment 4399 took the red rope, Zhou Ye's smile vanished without a trace, his eyelids drooped, and his eyes suddenly darkened.

-

The day before the game starts.

Su Mian needed to investigate the crime scene. Her method was relatively simple: when the six of them were playing Truth or Dare in the dormitory, she made Liang Chuchu draw a Dare card that said "Go to the toilet in Gongming and stay there for ten seconds".

She wrote down the names of the remaining players on the test paper and began the long process of planning.

Stab him to death with a knife?

Su Mian chuckled. This script was really going to be a nightmare for her. It was a game with only four players, and not only was the probability of hitting the target high, but the method of committing the crime was also so brainless, and there was no alibi.

She wouldn't push herself to the brink. Since Liang Chuchu liked her doll god so much, it was only natural that she would die at the doll's hands in the end.

Looking at the meticulous notes, she was suddenly struck by a strange emotion.

Unbeknownst to her, she had already come this far.

The feeling of writing a script by hand is not bad.

With everything ready, she closed her notebook and turned off the lights that evening.

That night was unusually quiet. Surprisingly, Liang Chuchu didn't bother her ghost doll, and there was no unpleasant smell of burning firewood.

But after lying down for a short while, Su Mian's eyelids became heavy, and her consciousness remained in a state of half-dreaming and half-awake.

I can't move.

It's like being paralyzed by a ghost.

She tried to raise her hand, but her fingertips felt like they were being pressed into the bed frame, unable to struggle.

My breathing became shallow, and my chest was being squeezed little by little by some force, as if a weight was pressing down on me.
