Chapter 1848: Chapter 1693: Escape Game 45

Unfortunately, Shuangshuang was disappointed. When Xiao Zhongjing mentioned that there were no children on the island, Tang Jinyi and Chen Mo didn’t show any unexpected reaction, nor did they offer any useful insights.

When other players asked them, Tang Jinyi and Chen Mo responded with various unreliable speculations, clearly indicating they didn’t intend to share any valuable information.

Shuangshuang frowned, realizing she couldn’t rely on other players. Everyone hoped to grasp firsthand information to be the first to pass the level and gain the most benefits.

Since she couldn’t expect other players to provide useful information, Shuangshuang decided not to waste energy focusing on others and concentrated on eating.

The weather was extremely hot now, and although the hotel air conditioning was refreshing, everyone had spent the day outside, sweating all over, feeling sticky and uncomfortable.

The female players talked about preparing to take a shower together. He Qianyin called out to Shuangshuang from the side, "Hey God, why don’t you join us for a shower?"

Shuangshuang waved her hand, "No need, you guys go ahead and wash. I’ll do it before bed."

The main reason was Shuangshuang didn’t want to shower with many people. She’s accustomed to showering alone and didn’t care whether some foolish ghost would come to find her.

With many people showering together, He Qianyin didn’t feel afraid, so she didn’t insist Shuangshuang join her and took her toiletries to the bathroom.

Seeing He Qianyin leave, Xiao Zhongjing frowned and said to Shuangshuang, "She went out all day today. Do you think she really didn’t gather any information?"

"If she obtained useful information, it could increase the game level score and provide more rewards. She probably wants a higher score," Shuangshuang replied casually.

Xiao Zhongjing was a bit displeased and said, "Why do you let such a selfish person stay in your room and protect her? Isn’t it frustrating?"

Shuangshuang, seeing Xiao Zhongjing’s indignant expression, laughed, "Haven’t I told you? If she wants to treat me as an Amulet, it depends on whether I agree. Do I look like someone easily exploited?"

Xiao Zhongjing remained silent, recalling how during his first game, he was constantly doubtful about Shuangshuang.

If it were himself, encountering someone suspicious after offering help, while he wouldn’t get angry, he definitely wouldn’t care about the other person’s fate.

But Shuangshuang still kindly helped him clear the level, which made Xiao Zhongjing believe Shuangshuang was the kind of person who liked to help others.

Of course, as a beneficiary, Xiao Zhongjing couldn’t say Shuangshuang’s actions were not good, but he worried that being too helpful would lead to exploitation, even the most capable person fears too many draggers.

Shuangshuang didn’t know Xiao Zhongjing’s thoughts, but if she did, she would definitely tell him she wasn’t the altruistic person he imagined.

Passing the level was due to Xiao Zhongjing’s own good performance. Although he doubted her, he wisely chose to observe silently and tried not to drag anyone down.

Like Ye Fuyu, Shuangshuang completely ignored her fate. When Shuangshuang went to the temple and released Zhou Liang, Ye Fuyu was actually placed in extreme danger.

Because Shuangshuang had no idea if releasing Zhou Liang meant clearing the level, or when they would return to the real world.

If the level wasn’t considered cleared before Zhou Liang’s revenge was over, Ye Fuyu, who stayed in Lao Mountain Village, would face the vengeful Ghost Groom.

Zhou Liang was rational, but the Ghost Groom was not. At that time, Ye Fuyu remaining in Lao Mountain Village was essentially doomed to die.

But Shuangshuang acted without any hesitation and didn’t feel guilty about Ye Fuyu, nor did she think she was wrong at all.

If a person doesn’t strive for self-preservation, even if Ye Fuyu relies on luck to survive one world, she’ll eventually die, as one world might be survived, but not all gaming worlds.

Shuangshuang didn’t know Xiao Zhongjing’s thoughts, so she nudged the silent, disgruntled Xiao Zhongjing sitting beside her, "Alright, go take a shower, while there are more people. Remember to take the Guardian Talisman."

It was close to ten o’clock when Shuangshuang went to shower. She had already decided that if any ghost dared to cause trouble while she showered in the haunted bathroom and toilet, she’d tie them up in eighteen knots and hang them for display.

Unexpectedly, until Shuangshuang finished showering, everything remained calm, presumably because those ghosts were afraid of her and didn’t dare to come. Shuangshuang was quite pleased with her comfort.

At night, when going to sleep, He Qianyin laid out her bedding as usual. However, halfway through the night, she wanted to get up to go to the bathroom and remembered the ghost encounters previously, she felt scared and didn’t dare go alone.

Initially, He Qianyin wanted to hold it in, but halfway through the night, she couldn’t endure it anymore and reached out to nudge Shuangshuang. Shuangshuang, who was a light sleeper, woke up before He Qianyin’s hand touched her.

In the dark night, Shuangshuang’s eyes were very clear, more like someone awake. She looked at He Qianyin, "Do you need something?"

Softly, He Qianyin pleaded, "Hey God, I want to go to the bathroom, but I can’t hold it anymore. Please accompany me over."

Shuangshuang frowned slightly, "Don’t you have the invisibility item? Use that, the ghosts can’t see you. Even I couldn’t see you the last time."

Saying this, Shuangshuang turned over and continued to sleep. She didn’t mind He Qianyin asking for protection since they were in the same room; ensuring He Qianyin’s peaceful sleep was easy.

But acting like a babysitter, taking care of her everywhere, depended on whether she was worth it. If He Qianyin didn’t hide things but sincerely treated her and Xiao Zhongjing as teammates, Shuangshuang wouldn’t mind taking care of her.

Now, wanting benefits while treating people like idiots and getting them to act as bodyguards, Shuangshuang not kicking them out was already quite generous.

He Qianyin felt a bit frustrated. Although she had the item, it was an Invisibility Talisman rewarded by the game, and using one meant one less, just wasting it for going to the bathroom was excessive.

However, He Qianyin dared not offend Shuangshuang. With Shuangshuang there, she didn’t have to worry about the dangerous nighttime encounters, and unable to hold it anymore, He Qianyin had to use the Invisibility Talisman for the toilet.

The bathroom was quiet, and He Qianyin didn’t dare turn on the light either, fearing alerting ghosts, revealing her presence.

Just when He Qianyin was about to leave the bathroom, the lights turned on, and someone entered the toilet.

He Qianyin heard the noise, not feeling relieved by company but growing tense, recalling Shuangshuang’s ghost encounter here previously.

This person might not have Shuangshuang’s abilities, and facing a ghost might involve her.

Her Invisibility Talisman only ensured complete invisibility when not moving. Once in motion, although her figure wasn’t visible, her footsteps would be heard.

The Invisibility Talisman merely provided invisibility but didn’t have the function of a Guardian Talisman.
