Restarting the Escape Game as Max Level

The lame man took a few breaths, and his hand began to ache deeply. “My mother has left, can you let me go now? What do you want to do?”

“This sentence should be what we’re asking you, what exactly do you want to do?” Beicheng Guliang walked up to him and said, “What have you done to Nancheng? Where is he now?”

“Your boyfriend is missing? Hahaha, hahahahaha—— “The lame man didn’t answer her, just kept laughing.

His laughter grew louder and wilder.

Echoing throughout the room, appearing eerie and crazy.

Ruan Qiao squatted down and asked him, “Are you leaving tonight?”

The lame man stopped laughing. His eyes looked very similar to the widow’s, both inverted triangles. When staring at people, they were particularly gloomy. After a while, seeing the girl before him didn’t show any fear, he spoke, “How do you know?”

She glanced at the lame man’s shoes and said, “If you were planning to stay here overnight, you wouldn’t have changed into these shoes that are suitable for hiking on mountain roads.”

“Why do you want to move out of the Zhang family and not spend the night here?”

The cripple glanced at Ruan Qiao and said, “You’re quite clever. Since you’ve lived here before, you should know what happens here at night.”

Wei An and Rainbow looked at each other, thinking that only players would encounter this kind of supernatural phenomenon in dungeons. Unexpectedly, NPCs would also be affected.

“Your sister has never returned to the Zhang family since she married out of town. What are you trying to avoid?” Ruan Qiao saw the cripple calm down and continued to question him.

The cripple sneered, “It’s not that she hasn’t returned. She came back to see Mom once, but no one has seen her since then.”

“She is very smart and knows that if she gets married far away, she can escape this family, but in the end, hasn’t she disappeared just like her father and big brother. You don’t have to be so nervous, today is the last time I’ll come back.” The cripple said,” I can’t control whether your people are alive or dead. On the contrary, I’m about to leave soon, stay here, and there’s only one path, death.”

“You still came back, did you have a nightmare again?” Ruan Qiao remembered the diary.

“Hehe, what about nightmares? They can’t do anything to me except appear in the dark. I can’t handle this anymore, and I won’t come back in the future.” said the cripple.

Beicheng Guliang still held the medical record in front of her, saying, “Although I found this in the big brother’s room, big brother has long been gone. I can’t rule out that it’s your medical record, intentionally hiding it in another room. The person who attacked us today is also a cripple. Even if you don’t admit it, it’s useless.”

The cripple looked up at her coldly and said, “My room and big brother’s room are unlocked, anyone can enter. This medical record is not mine, and I haven’t seen you since we separated at the door today.”

Wei An saw him speak bs and said, “You’re still lying!”

He pressed down on the cripple’s arm with force, and blood continued to flow from the wound on his palm.

Although the cripple was in pain, he did not answer, only showing a cold smile.

Ruan Qiao stood up and said, “He’s right, it’s not him who attacked Rainbow.”

Rainbow was surprised and said, “Mianmian, how do you know? Did you see that person?”

“Let go of the cripple first. Since we don’t have any conflict, let’s go our separate paths. We’ll find the person we’re looking for. No one will hinder anyone.” Although Ruan Qiao’s words made others very confused, she had such an inexplicable sense of conviction.

Wei An let go of the cripple, who stood up and walked towards the door with a hoe.

“I advise you not to look anymore. Otherwise, you won’t be able to save even your own life.”

He opened the door and limped away at the corner of the corridor.

Subsequently, the sound of the iron chain opening came from the gate.

“Where are you f****** off to?”

The woman’s voice rang from outside.

The lame man didn’t answer and slammed the courtyard gate shut.

The woman walked to the door, re-tied the iron chain, and cursed, but the dog’s barking was too loud for the players in the room to hear clearly.

Ruan Qiao showed the ID card in the box to Rainbow and Beicheng and said, “There are not only men but also women inside, indicating that the target of the killer is actually not just young men. This can also explain why he attacked Rainbow.”

“How can you be certain that the cripple is not the murderer, perhaps he is an accomplice to the murderer?” Beicheng Guliang still didn’t understand Ruan Qiao’s behavior just now.

“The lame person is indeed not a good person, but I estimate their family has many crazy people. Besides the lame person, there are even more terrifying people than him that make him eager to escape here.” Ruan Qiao continued, “The person who attacked Rainbow hid his whole body tightly, not even exposing his fingers, not even speaking, mostly not wanting to be recognized.”

“Maybe he’s used to dressing up like this,” Beicheng said.

“This may be one of the daily habits of the killer, but since the killer doesn’t want to be recognized, he is very cautious in everything and picks on us when we are alone, so there is no need to take off Rainbow Soundllast’s eye mask. Rainbow can’t see the killer, even if the crime fails, isn’t the killer still very safe? The other party intentionally takes off the eye mask and pretends to be lame in front of Rainbow, just to make us suspect others.” Ruan Qiao looked at Wei An.

“Do you remember that we found the cold storage room following the killer’s footprints? “She pointed to Wei An’s foot: If it’s a cripple, then his footprints must be one deep and one shallow. At that time, I had Wei An step on it to compare the killer’s footprints, because the killer’s footprints were the same as those of a normal person. When moving with the unconscious rainbow on his back, he didn’t limp, but deliberately took off the rainbow’s blindfold and pretended to pose. Isn’t this obvious?”

Rainbow Soundblast was shocked and said, “Mian Mian, your observation ability is too amazing!”

Wei An continued to say, “The old woman’s figure is also very tall, and her feet are very big. If it weren’t for her lameness, would it really be her?”

“What should we do now?” Beicheng frowned and said, “Nancheng is missing, and I don’t know if he’s dead or alive right now.”

Ruan Qiao glanced at the courtyard outside the window and vaguely saw the woman feeding the dog.

The black dog had food and finally stopped barking wildly.

“After she goes back to bed, let’s go find Zhang Ming’s room again.” Ruan Qiao looked at the side room across the window.

Neither Zhang Ming’s room nor the side room next to that room have they entered yet.

Next to the side room are the vegetable fields and the black dog.

Behind the tightly closed door, there seems to be a hidden secret of the family that no one knows.

Or perhaps, behind the door is the abyss.

Intuition told Ruan Qiao that the answer they wanted was right there.

Rainbow and Ruan Qiao returned to the cripple’s room to rest. In order to lower the woman’s guard, they all turned off the lights.

The sound of wind and rain outside is getting louder and louder, and every time the rolling thunder sounds, the window glass keeps shaking.

Rainbow became increasingly afraid. She pulled at Ruan Qiao’s clothes and said, “Mianmian, do you have a very strange feeling, where your back is chilly, constantly shivering. My heart has a furry feeling, and I can’t describe it. Anyway, it’s really scary, just, just like……”

Ruan Qiao looked up at her and said softly, “Do you mean——”

Rainbow swallowed her saliva.

Ruan Qiao: “It’s like having a pair of eyes that keep looking at us?”
