he tried to log in to the game using the bracelet yesterday, but it was not successful initially. when he was about to give up, he oddly managed to log in.

at that time, he saw the prompt “the previous player has died”, which puzzled him. after all, game characters can be resurrected after death, so why did the game allow him to log in?

now it appears that the game prompt “the previous player has died” likely refers to actual death.

su nan’s face changed. if it really is as he speculated, then this matter may be somewhat beyond what science can explain.

wang chong did not perceive su nan’s eerie demeanor and continued to look at the photo, shaking his head in pity at the sight of the woman.

su nan stared at the picture, and suddenly, he made another discovery.

he saw, tucked away in the crowd at the corner of the photograph, two men wearing duckbill caps with their faces obscured by black masks.

“it’s them!”

su nan’s heart skipped a beat again. clearly, those two men are the same individuals he encountered yesterday.

fixated on the two men in the photo, su nan’s mind was filled with tumultuous thoughts.

he suddenly considered the possibility that the woman in black didn’t commit suicide — she was killed by these two men!

it’s no wonder he made such an inference. yesterday when he met the two men, he noticed that they seemed to be chasing something.

looking back now, it’s highly likely that the two men were chasing after the woman in black.

recalling the urgency on the woman’s face as well, su nan felt a chill run down his spine in an instant.

quietly withdrawing his gaze and calming his emotions, su nan became certain at that moment — the woman was murdered.

and the murderers were likely those two men.

as for why they did this, su nan speculated that it was probably related to the game bracelet he had obtained.

“what secrets does that bracelet hold?”

su nan didn’t intend to provide any clues to the police. he’d decided not to mention anything about the bracelet, or even anything game-related at all.

…

as night fell, su nan ended a day’s work and headed home after work.

better safe than sorry. he didn’t take the same route as yesterday, but chose another one instead.

this is also a route he often takes for his nightly run, so no one would find it odd if he changed his route.

moreover, the most important thing was that this path had a lot of pedestrian traffic.

with an anxious heart, he returned home, and immediately took out the game bracelet of the demon world for a careful study.

unfortunately, after studying it for a while, he found nothing unusual about it.

“i hope it’s all just my imagination!”

taking a deep breath, he stopped overthinking, put on the bracelet and logged into the game warehouse.

where you die, you shall respawn.

it was the same prison cell as before. unlike yesterday, there was no one else here today, not even the white-robed youth’s corpse from yesterday.

seeing the task completion prompt again, a look of joy appeared on su nan’s face.
