Chapter 1 : Death Game
A figure fell sharply in front of the mall's entrance, accompanied by a loud bang and splattering blood.
A drop of warm liquid fell on Yu Su's cheek. She looked down at her now bloodstained dress, then at the broken body less than three meters ahead.
The deceased was facing upward when he landed, and his face was quite complete–It was a familiar face.
At this moment, that reckless man was lying on a pool of blood with his eyes wide open, without a trace of life.
After a brief silence, the surrounding pa.s.sersby screamed.
Yu Su slowly used her index finger to wipe the blood on her cheek, the corners of her mouth bent into a faint smile.
That man was right. This game would really kill people.
–
One day ago.
The scene before Yu Su suddenly changed from her familiar bedroom to a strange room.
The heavy curtains blocked the dim light from outside the window. It took Yu Su a little time to see that she was in a somewhat aged hotel room.
She was sitting on a double bed, half-leaning on the pillows. Her eyes moved from the window to the bathroom.
With a ”click”, the bathroom door opened.
A tall, handsome man was wiping his wet hair with a towel. He slowly stepped out and smiled at Yu Su.
He was wearing a white s.h.i.+rt with unbuckled b.u.t.tons, revealing the beautiful abdominal muscles which looked very s.e.xy.
What's this situation?!
Yu Su sat up straight, a hundred thoughts rushed inside her mind. It was hard to resist the urge to open the quilt, she wanted to check whether she was wearing pants or not.
Before Yu Su could say anything, two mobile phones' prompts rang at the same time.
Two identical mobile phones are placed on the bedside tables, each on the right and left sides of the bed, its screen lit up. Yu Su hesitated and reached for her mobile phone.
On the phone screen, there was a message :
【The man in the room is your fiancé. You two are travelling together to the Ancient Town.】
”…” Fiancé? Yu Su looked at the man, speechless.
The man put his mobile phone inside his pocket and narrowed his eyes at Yu Su, “Why, do I look good, my lovely fiancée?”
Yu Su coughed, took her gaze back and asked, “Where is this? I'm clearly in my bedroom before.”
“Well?” The man sat down on the bed and looked at her for a moment before asking, “Are you a newcomer?”
Yu Su was a little puzzled, “What do you mean by a newcomer?”
“Before you came here, did an APP suddenly appear on your mobile phone? And, did you open it?”
“Yes.” Yu Su answered.
She was on vacation, with nothing to do, suddenly discovered there is an APP called “Death Game” on her mobile phone.
She thought she might have accidentally installed it, and felt that the icon looked pretty good. She wanted to use the game to kill time. Unexpectedly, just after she clicked the confirmation b.u.t.ton, she abruptly appeared at this place.
Thinking of this, Yu Su looked up and asked the man, “Is this because of the game?”
The man let out a low laugh and his eyes shone with interest, “This is the first time I've seen such a calm newcomer like you.”
Yu Su didn't get the answer to her question, she inquired again, “Then, can you explain it to me?”
The man raised his eyebrows, glanced over her mobile phone, he narrowed his eyes and smiled: “Of course, I'd be happy to answer my fiancée.”
Yu Su: “…….”
The man claimed to be called w.a.n.g San. As soon as Yu Su heard it, she understood that it's a pseudonym, so Yu Su also reported a pseudonym: “Su Yu.” (Also means “Salmon”(苏鱼), the ”Yu(鱼)” used a different character from her real name: 余苏)
w.a.n.g San explained, “First of all, I must remind you that if you die inside the game, you will also die in reality within 24 hours.”
After his brief explanation, Yu Su had a general understanding of the game.
This was a game that overturned her 23 years of worldview. Who would imagine that a mobile APP could bring people to different worlds?
w.a.n.g San said, “Most of the world have ghosts. Every mission will be randomly given to the players. What kind of world they will enter and what danger will be encountered were unknown until they received the mission. As for how to complete the mission, the players were required to explore it themselves.”
People who died in the mission world, no matter the cause of death was, will certainly die in reality, and the death time is within 24 hours after the end of the game.
He didn't say much, but finally reminded, “Pay attention to hide your personal information, including your real name.”
After that, he stopped talking. Yu Su knew that it couldn't be as simple as that, but the other party didn't want to talk anymore, so she didn't ask more.
She nodded and said, “Thank you very much.”
After a pause, she asked, “That, are we partners?”
w.a.n.g San gave her a sideways look, apparently saw her thoughts of holding thighs. He bent the corner of his lips, and slowly spoke, “As long as you're obedient, you won't die.”
