Chapter 176: Name List Of Death!
After taking a deep breath, Su Bai was in no hurry to get up. He placed his hand under the blanket and touched around. The little fella and Lucky who were sleeping by his side were no longer seen.
Very soon, Su Bai took out two Hellfire Shotguns from under the blanket.
Indeed, its not wrong to be vigilant, Su Bai said to himself.
With the past experience where he was sent into the story world while soaking in the hot springs together with the monk and Gyatso, Su Bai was now familiar with Dreadful Radios wretched actions. The few days before Dreadful Radio finished revamping and started broadcast, Su Bai had placed his Hellfire Shotguns under his blanket when he slept at night. Otherwise, if he was sent into the story world when he was sleeping and only wearing his pajamas, it would be injustice.
He got down from his bed and opened the retro wardrobe in front. There were clothes inside, old fashioned suits and casual wear which seems to be popular in the twenties or thirties in Shanghai. Su Bai chose a black coat, a pair of casual pants and a pair of leather shoes. He closed the wardrobe and looked at himself in the wardrobe mirror.
Su Bai suddenly felt that it would be perfect if the surrounding could add [1] as the background music, however, Hui Man-keung[2] wasnt using a shotgun.
Su Bai hid both guns by his waist. He opened the room door and walked out. He realized he was in a simple and unadorned hotel. There were many rooms on this floor.
When Su Bai came out, the opposite room door so happened to be opened. A man 1.5 metres tall was alarmed and immediately took out his dagger and pointed at Su Bai.
Su Bai wanted to dash forward but promptly halted his steps. His body never left the vicinity of the door. The other party was startled, triggering him to brandish his dagger and rush towards Su Bai.
Su Bai did not pull out his gun nor did he retaliate. He tilted his body as the other party was rushing forward; the other partys dagger was stabbed into Su Bai thigh. Su Bai moaned miserably and then retreated to shut the door.
At this moment, many audiences opened their own doors and came towards the corridor. They saw a short man wielding a dagger covered in blood and the audience at the opposite room moaning in pain.
The short man was stupefied. He noticed the surrounding audiences giving him looks of dread. He puffed up his chest full of glorious satisfaction. He then spat towards Su Bais room door.
Pui, impressive-looking but useless person.
He then turned around unrestrained and left.
It is forbidden to mutually slaughter here. Once there is death of an audience here, the involved participant will join him. A woman wearing a red one-piece dress pointed towards a noticeboard at the corridor and said.
The others started circling around one after another.
The short man was surprised and feeling aghast. Luckily, he only stabbed the other partys thigh and not towards his heart. Otherwise, it wouldnt be worth it had he accompanied the other party he murdered.
Su Bai had also gently opened the door at this moment; he walked limply towards the wall.
Ah, damn it. Not allow to kill! Hahahahaha! Not allowed to kill!
Su Bai was so happy that tears fell out.
These were tears of joy.
Quite a number of the surrounding audiences gave a look of contempt at Su Bai. This craven and cowardly person would actually be an audience; maybe he was relying on luck.
Theres a sign here. The restaurant is over there, A man wearing and old-fashioned leather jacket shouted.
There was a sign at the end of the corridor pointing to the restaurant.
Everyone started to head to that direction. Su Bai also walked there with a limp.
Su Bai was considered the last person to enter the restaurant. The restaurant was huge and it was buffet style; they had to take their own food. Su Bais foot injury was actually almost healed since he had the vampire lineage, but he still walked with an exaggerated limp. He would subconsciously try to avoid anyone who was standing next to him when he was taking his food, trying to stay as low key as possible.
After taking one round of food, Su Bai understood one thing: everyones aura was blocked over here. There was no way to surmise the other partys strengths based on aura.
Su Bai took a plate of fried rice added with some salted vegetables and a glass of milk and sat down to have his meal.
Nobody in the restaurant talked. There was no conversation going on and everyone was very quiet. There were twenty people, ten males and ten females.
Everyone ate for the sake of eating. Everyone was certain that it wouldnt be too perfect in the story world. This wasnt a place for a field trip or a picnic.
To be honest, Su Bai really missed the environment in the story world. His had a very good appetite. After cleaning up his plate of fried rice, he wasnt satisfied. He took another plate of piping-hot noodles to eat.
Even Su Bai was surprised with himself. He was really a psycho; he felt enlivened after entering the story world. His face was glowing.
After dining for about forty-five minutes, a sign appeared in the restaurant:
Please enter the meeting room.
There were people who had finished eating but did not leave; they sat there waiting for the majority to finish eating. After five minutes of silence, they stood up and followed the sign.
Because of Su Bais good appetite, he was considered one of the last few who got up.
Quite a good appetite. A girl wearing gold rimmed glasses commented as she purposely approached Su Bai.
The other party seems to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She seemed intellectual and her skin was very fair.
Cough cough cough Su Bai coughed repeatedly.
Oh, sorry. Perhaps you are sensitive towards my perfume. Heh heh, since this perfume was popular during the 20s or 30s era in the Bund of Shanghai. I was curious and applied a bit.
its alright. Its alright. Its my nose thats useless, overly sensitive. Su Bai immediately apologized.
Im Xu Zhenzhen, whats your name? That woman seemed very interested in Su Bai.
Su Bai.
Oh, never heard it before. Xu Zhenzhen said regretfully. However, we both now know each other, right?
En. Su Bai looked to the front and realized the people in front had already left; he reminded: Lets go ahead. Its better to follow the flow in the story world. Its best not to be too far behind others.
Follow the flow. Xu Zhenzhen nodded her head after listening to Su Bais words.
Right, follow the flow.
When both of them entered the meeting room, the other eighteen people had already sat down inside.
Su Bai purposely chose the most inconspicuous seat to the left and sat down. Xu Zhenzhen sat on the right side instead.
The table was black in color. At this moment, the table started to drift like a pool of liquid. A piece of paper and a pen slowly appeared. Everything returned to normal, but a name list and a pen appeared at everyones seat.
There was a row of words on that paper:
Who do you hope would die first?
There were photos of twenty people at the bottom. The was a circle at the bottom of every picture you could tick. There was a bracket with the words [Single Selection].
Su Bai couldnt help but smile. He covered his face with one hand; people who didnt know Su Bai might think he was panic-stricken. Su Bai was in fact covering his mouth and laughing quietly.
F*ck, you daddy made the right bet.
At last, there were some benefits after completing the reality task. Su Bai had already guessed it when he saw the rooms of all the people gathered.
Su Bai felt his face was almost cramping from all that laughter, but he couldnt stop. He was indeed too happy. He felt he had successfully gotten a hold of Dreadful Radios methods.
In the end, Su Bai suddenly realized that there were people intentionally or unintentionally glancing over at him. He immediately used his other hand to pinch his tights to stop the smiles. He removed the hand covering his face and revealed a terrified expression.
There was a rostrum right in front of the meeting room, but there wasnt a host. A gigantic clock was hung behind it, it was less than a minute away from 12 noon.
Everyone started to make their choice.
It was obvious that everyone would opt to choose the strongest person at this moment. With his death, it would be most beneficial to them. The rules this time indicated that this was an internal game of the group. This was a bloody game of order and choice. As long as you sent off the people stronger than yourself to their deaths, the higher your chance to survive until the end would be.
Su Bai quietly gave a tick to the short mans photo.
Following that, the pen and paper entered the table.
When it was twelve sharp, a name list appeared on everyones table. A vote count was listed below the twenty photos.
The short man was called Zhao Zhen. He had 13 votes.
Following:
Qin Yang (A young man wearing a singlet) : 1 vote
Sun Yue (A young woman wearing a white evening gown) : 1 vote
Liu Tao (A young man wearing a black suit) : 2 votes
What made Su Bai feel surprised was he actually had 3 votes!
Other than shorty Zhao Zhen who realized he had been tricked by Su Bai and voted for Su Bai, there were another two people who voted himself. Looks like they were not idiots; at least there were a few smart people who could see that Su Bai was putting up an act. Su Bai became more alert; seemed like acting weak could not be used often. He had to follow the steps of others.
DONG!
DONG!
The clock sounded.
The gazes of 19 people feel on the short man Zhao Zhen.
It was obvious that everyone was looking forward to what would be the ending of the person with the highest vote.
