"Damn it, if I quit the instanow, wouldn't all my efforts over the past five days be wasted?" Jiang Xiaobai cursed unwillingly.

  "This instance is really a trap," Cobra shook his head.

  Logically, at their level, the instahey entered shouldn't be this difficult.

  "The instance rewards are sedary; if we don't plete this instahe bonus from the employer will be gooo," Bck Bear said, troubled.

  Among the seven of them, a few, like Qin Nuo, were actually substitutes for others.

  Some wealthy individuals, disc curses on themselves and fearih in the instance, hired professional pyers to enter on their behalf.

  These substitute pyers earned quite a bit.

  Not only could they receive rewards after pleting the instance, but they also got paid by the employer.

  Uhe proteeism, the risks were greatly reduced.

  Therefore, this industry was very popur at the time!

  Of course, if the instance wasn't pleted, the curse remained on the inal owner, and the payment was lost, signifitly redug their credibility in the industry.

  Bck Bear, Cobra, and Ja were all hired pyers.

  "There's a way. We y out all the clues we've gathered and narrow down the most suspicious residents," Bck Rose suggested.

  "And then have those with immunity tokens identify them," she added.

  Jiang Xiaobai g her, "Besides us, there are twenty-three residents in this building. How many you identify?"

  "Moreover, we've been focused on the main instaasks these past few days and haven't gathered any clues for the side quests."

  Cobra suddenly stood up and said, "You guys py on; for the five days, I'll choose to hide in my room. This way, my ces of surviving until the end of the game are at least higher."

  "Reasonable," Jiang Xiaobai agreed with Cobra's idea.

  Now, they only hoped to survive until the end of the game and plete this instance.

  As for finding the killer...

  That was already a distant hope!

  "You guys still have immunity tokens, but I've already died once. If I'm hunted again, I'll really be dead!" Bck Bear said with a dark expression.

  Cobra and Jiang Xiaobai ignored him and turo leave.

  When disaster strikes, everyone looks out for themselves.

  Ja was also anxious, having been killed once as well.

  "If the game instance fails, at least I participate again. If I lose my life, it's really gone."

  "I'm out. See you all if fate allows!"

  Ja pulled up the game panel and firmed his exit from the instance.

  A beam of light enveloped him, and he disappeared in an instant.

  "Pyer 'Ja' exited the game early, instanpletion failed!"

  Bck Bear kicked the et hard in frustration, "Damn it, I'm out too!"

  With that, he also clicked to exit.

  "Pyer 'Bck Bear' exited the game early, instanpletion failed!"

  In the room, only Qin Nuo and the two women remained.

  Bck Rose looked at Qin Nuo, "What do you pn to do?"

  "At least I still have an immunity token, so I take some risks."

  Qin Nuo put his hands in his pockets, "People o have some hope. The game isn't over, and I'm not dead, so anything is possible."

  With that, Qin Nuo also left.

  Princess Yao Yao looked at Bck Rose and said pitifully, "Sister Rose, I stay with you for the few days?"

  Bck Rose frowned slightly, initially wanting to refuse, but then thought that having someone around might e in handy.

  She smiled slightly, "Sure."

  Meanwhile, Qin Nuo returo Room 404.

  After closing the door, he took out a notebook from uhe drawer and wrote down the names of four residents.

  "Liu Meng, Xia Xinlu, and the old ndlord."

  "What are you doing?" Blood-Eyed Ghost asked.

  "This is my final gamble," Qin Nuo said, putting down the pen.

  "My only advantage is having two substitute scarecrows, giviwo more lives thaher pyers."

  "Itle royale mode, there's a detailed rule: pyers identify the killer in advance. Once identified, if the killer makes a move against you, you win."

  "I have four lives and identify three ghosts."

  "These three are currently my top suspects."

  Blood-Eyed Ghost was still a bit fused, "And then?"

  Qin Nuo smiled slightly, "For example, I now identify the most suspicious Meng, then cross her name off the notebook."

  "Later, I'll be erased, losing the memory of seeing the killer. If I revive, then Meng is cleared of suspi, and when I return to the room ahis notebook, I'll know Meng be ruled out."

  "Then, I verify the suspect!"

  Qin Nuo expined.

  This strategy could pletely bypass the memory-erasing rule of the game.

  Blood-Eyed Ghost was somewhat surprised.

  This kid's mind worked quite well.

  "Don't fet, Liu Meng's parents are also suspects. How you be sure the killer is among them?"

  "This apartment has 23 residents."

  Qin Nued, "If none of them are, then I'll just hide until the game ends like those guys."

  "If I use up all three lives, I'll exit the game."

  "At worst, I won't take the reward and will help my sister participate in another instance."

  He had realized it.

  This instance was too difficult, not at all suitable for their level.

  There must be some special reason that increased the difficulty of the instance, leading to this battle royale mode!

  It had to be said, this was indeed quite a trap!

  "You really pn to take a gamble," Blood-Eyed Ghost said.

  "Fortune favors the bold. If you don't fight, you're waiting for death. I've never beeo admit defeat in games!"

  Qin Nuo said, opening the door to Liu Ze's room.

  "What's up?" Liu Ze still had that cold expression.

  "I've run into some trouble and need your help, Brother Liu."

  Liu Ze naturally agreed.

  With Liu Ze's help, Qin Nuo also knocked on the doors of Fat Homebody Ghost and Little Yuan's Mom, and they agreed to help as well.

  Last time with the Face-Fying Ghost, they couldn't help mud owed him a favor. This time, when Qin Nuo asked for help, they agreed without hesitation.

  Qin Nuo felt grateful.

  es are truly important!

  With the help of the three residents on the fourth floor, Qin Nuo tinued his iigation into the main task over the wo days.

  He wasn't afraid of being hunted by the killer.

  He had four lives, hoping it would e for him!

  The pyers hiding in their rooms, like Cobra, were dumbfounded seeing Qin Nuo still swaggering around the apartment.

  Bro, it's a battle royale.

  you not be sant?

  From the old ndlord, he won two more chess games, redeemed the items pawned by two households, and pleted two D-level instaasks.

  At the same time, he obtained a main task clue—"The ndlord's 2011 resident informatio seems to hide something. Why not take a look? You might discover something!"

  2011.

  That was the resident informatio from ten years ago!

  Qin Nuo hesitated for a moment, then smiled at the old ndlord, "Old man, could you help me with one more thing?"

  "You've taken two deposits, and you're still not satisfied?"

  The old ndlord's face darkened again.

  Losing two games in a row without a single win had shattered the fidence he had regained.

  Two chess games, one clue gained.

  But the goodwill was lost!
