Information

"Actually, I had already met this gentleman before, and he was the one who helped me."

The Writer, sitting alone in a corner reading a book, looked up when he heard this and smiled at Tao Yuan and the others.

"I'll tell you the details later," Tao Yuan said. "I don't know where the Chainsaw is now. I want to go find it tomorrow and kill the Weird Object again."

Mi Chuchu said, "Okay, I'll go with you!"

"You should rest too. You took the hits from three dogs and your injuries are even worse than mine. How's your arm? Are there any lasting effects?"

"It's alright, I'm in better physical condition than you, and I recover faster."

As they were talking, people began to enter through the glass door outside, all drawn by the fight between Tao Yuan and the dog.

Upon learning that such a place existed at night, many people were shocked, and the shop became noisy for a moment.

Qin Rang also came in at this time, and he immediately saw his teammates sitting at the door.

You're not dead!

He was the first to approach An Ying, and said excitedly.

Tao Yuan was startled, and remembering what she had seen during the day, she immediately sat up, but the movement pulled at her wound and made her gasp in pain.

"Behave yourself." Tang Pin pressed down on Tao Yuan with frightening force.

As Family Clan renowned for treating Weird Object, Tang Pin is definitely an anomaly in the Family Clan; her true specialty is actually staff fighting.

As a member of the Peach Family, known for their ability to control supernatural entities, Tao Yuan is an anomaly in the Family Clan. She is the only one who carries a giant Chainsaw and fights in close combat all day long, and also works as a healer, but she just can't control it.

Using Weird Objects also depends on compatibility; her compatibility with controlling supernatural beings is very low.

Tao Yuan clutched her chest and sat down again, but her gaze remained fixed on Qin Rang and An Ying.

An Ying blinked in confusion, then suddenly realized and said, "What you saw wasn't my corpse. During the day, a strange phenomenon occurs here called 'Flower Snatcher,' which turn into our faces to deceive people. I killed a few that turned into mine."

"That's good, you really scared me to death."

After Qin Rang finished speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong. "This Garbage Truck can move around freely during the day?"

The group exchanged glances and tacitly stopped talking. Wen Keke didn't react at all, as if she hadn't heard anything.

Lin Nieran couldn't help but admire how quick-witted the Protagonist Group were.

After comparing their experiences, Qin Rang finally understood why the dog leash was Dog-Walking Specter —it had been killed by Flower Language.

Lin Nieran had already put on a glove, and energy was channeled into it, slowly repairing the broken marks on An Ying's Bamboo Umbrella.

"Every strange thing here has its own Rules, and if there is information about those Rules, we can exchange it with each other," Tang Pin said after they finished speaking.

"Speaking of which, what's the story behind all of you? Why are you all sitting here?" Qin Rang asked.

Having heard a lot of news, Tang Pin and Wen Keke spoke up on their own initiative.

Tang Pin said, "Our buildings Building Three and Building Six are referred to as 'alternate family members' by the Instance."

"My teammates and I were assigned to the third floor as soon as we entered the Instance. We were told that we had to obtain our identities before the Instance ended, or we would never be able to leave the Instance."

"To obtain an identity, you must arrive at the Life Supermarket after six o'clock and wait for the eerie selection process to choose you to complete a game or mission," Tang Pin said. "The game intervals are two hours. We've already played three games, and I was selected once, but I didn't get any useful information."

After she finished speaking, Wen Keke added, "I also participated once. I played chess with an old man. There was no danger to my life, although I played terribly. But the old man seemed to like me and let me leave."

Everyone present glanced silently at Wen Keke's face, surprised that she could even bewitch the supernatural.

However, it remains to be seen how much of what she said can be believed.

"Some people die even if they succeed in the game, while others survive even if they fail." An Ying's last game was helping to look after children from strange places. The demands made by those strange places were getting more and more outrageous. He couldn't stand it, so he called their parents.

He then completed the game, only to be notified that he had received hostility from a group of children who would forever refuse to let him be their Dad, mother, brother, or younger brother.

"I think I know the reason for this." Lin Nieran, who had been listening for a long time, felt that he needed to increase his presence. After all, he was also here to challenge the Instance, and being completely invisible would be too conspicuous.

Qin Rang and Tao Yuan both recalled his skillful actions during the day and asked, "Do you have any news?"

"It's just a guess," Lin Nieran said. "I'm wondering why this Instance has two areas. We have our daytime lives, and you have your nighttime lives. We can say that the two sides have no connection whatsoever."

"If we don't go out at night, this place won't even be discovered. Admittedly, the food in the Life Supermarket is safe and we can eat it, but it's certainly not that simple that it lured us here just to provide us with food. Would the supernatural be that kind?"

"Including the games you're involved in, it sounds to me like these weirdos are picking out the people they're happy with."

"What happens after the selection?"

Lin Nieran looked at Qin Rang Qin Rang naturally followed his train of thought and replied, "They are choosing 'family' for themselves."

Lin Nieran nodded secretly; Qin Rang was indeed clever.

"I see, that makes the most sense." Tang Pin nodded, then stood up, leaving it at that. "Then I'll be leaving now. Thank you for the information."

"Thank you for your treatment too," An Ying said.

Tang Pin returned to her team and whispered to her teammates, while Wen Keke was also dragged away by Mi Chuchu.

With no outsiders around, the group began discussing their next steps.

With the time approaching one o'clock, Wang Ding finally found an opportunity under the watchful eye of that perverted mother to slowly slide down the outer wall of the fourth floor. He waited in the cold wind for more than half an hour, but still did not see Qin Rang and Tao Yuan.

The cold wind howled, and his figure shivered in the wind.

[Honest man Wang Ding, I really can't bear to look at him]

Stop waiting for those two, at least go check ahead!

[I always feel sorry for the honest Minister Wang.]

[This is such a long wait!]

[This is inexplicably funny, sorry]

[Wang Ding: I'll whip you with this little leather whip!]

[Everyone has their own strengths in controlling the direction of their Weird Objects; I still don't understand why Minister Wang's Weird Object is a small leather whip.]

[He's the Minister of the Discipline Office, so it's not surprising he has this Weird Object, right?]

At exactly one o'clock, a flash of light appeared, and dozens of people finished the game and appeared in the Life Supermarket.

Sheng Qingqiao spotted Qin Rang and the others at a glance, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly.

"Ahh, boss!"

He threw himself into Qin Rang's arms, wailing, "I almost didn't make it back, boohoo!"

An Ying said coldly, "Can you even cry? Then go ahead and cry."

Sheng Qingqiao was about to speak, she suddenly paused, looked at the person she was holding, and asked, "Huh? How did you get here?"

Although Sheng Qingqiao was injured, he kept muttering to himself after sitting down, and his spirits seemed much better than he said.
