How Unfair Heaven Was!!
As he spoke, Heavenless Heretic simply took the card out of his pocket and placed it on the table.
[Among the five of you, one of you entered through that Nonexistent Door.]
This is a very common light yellow sticky note with this sentence written on it in a strange way.
"That Nonexistent Door... does it refer to that last Key?"
The Zither-Drum Harmony turned their attention to Bai Zhi.
Of the five people present, each had a bunch of Key, a total of six Key. One Key was for their own Security Door, and the other four keys led to the Dormitory Area, the Entertainment Area, the Supermarket, and the stairwell, respectively. Only the last remaining Key had no known destination.
"Don't look at me, I'm pretty sure I didn't go in."
Bai Zhi shrugged.
"Let's talk about this later. Let's let Heavenless Heretic finish speaking."
"Uh... after defeating that Monster, I started playing the Game. During the Game, I learned some important information, including that someone had lied and that someone had broken the rules by leaving the game."
Heavenless Heretic glanced at Bai Zhi.
"You all probably know something about Fallen Player, right? So I'm guessing that there might just be one of them in our group by chance..."
"Fallen Player, what are those?"
While others at your house look on with a blank or silent expression, the Night Owl looks completely bewildered.
"He's a bad guy."
After giving a brief explanation to the Night Owl, Bai Zhi began to speak.
"The chances of that are very small. That's why I told you everything, because if we continue to be suspicious at a time like this, our situation will become quite precarious."
"My situation is roughly the same."
Nodding, PrayerUnderDreams continued.
"However, the information I obtained did not come from the Game, but from a Friend who added me."
As she spoke, PrayerUnderDreams also recounted the story of the "people nearby" who had persistently tried to add her as Friend for two consecutive days, and she also took out the photos of the chat history that she had taken with her phone.
A Pure Smile, Shy Blushing Cheeks
[PrayerUnderDreams]
Who are you? Where are you? What do you want?
A Pure Smile, Shy Blushing Cheeks
--... careful...
[PrayerUnderDreams]
--Be careful? What are you being careful about?
A Pure Smile, Shy Blushing Cheeks
--... Some of you are lying...
[PrayerUnderDreams]
So who exactly are you???
A Pure Smile, Shy Blushing Cheeks
We've misjudged the world, yet we accuse it of Deception us...
[PrayerUnderDreams]
--???
The chat history ends here.
"That's about it. After that, she never replied to any of my messages."
PrayerUnderDreams spoke up.
"What, has any of you noticed something?"
"There's too little information available... Also, you're not very good at chatting."
Bai Zhi shook his head with a slight hint of regret.
"From the chat history, it's clear that the other person controlled the pace of the conversation. If it were me, I'm fully confident that they would eventually come after me and hurl insults at me."
"???"
"Alright, Night Owl, what was your experience like last night?"
With a slight pout, Bai Zhi turned to look at the Night Owl, who was listlessly slumped over the table, staring blankly at the streetlight in front of him.
Since entering this mission, the street lamp flower in the other party's hand has been practically always with them.
"Me? The knocking on the door started again last night."
Looking up at Bai Zhi with a hint of resentment, Night Owl murmured softly.
"However, this time the knocking didn't come from outside the door, but from inside..."
"A knocking sound came from inside the door..."
"Then I took my laptop to the bed and played Miracle Nikki for about an hour, and then the knocking stopped."
The Night Owl sighed.
"I think that knocking is definitely targeting me. It was one thing for it to knock from outside, but now it's coming into the room..."
"Every cloud has a silver lining. Maybe by the time this mission is over, your timidity will be overcome."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi offered words of comfort.
"Unlike one of my ex-girlfriends, who went to the Movie Theater alone at night and got so scared that she ran back to her Dormitory crying... Hmm, why?"
Seeing the Night Owl in front of him suddenly raise its head and stare at him with a sharp murderous aura, Bai Zhi couldn't help but touch his face with a slightly puzzled expression.
Is there something dirty on my face?
"Whoa! In that instant, the Night Owl's eyes sharpened!!"
While inwardly marveling at the astonishing act of someone openly talking about his ex-girlfriend in front of a Girl to comfort her, PrayerUnderDreams exclaimed loudly from the side.
"That's right, the Night Owl's eyes are starting to sharpen; it's a sign of her inspiration flowing!!"
Suddenly, a microphone appeared in Heavenless Heretic's hand, and he began to explain the situation to the Unique audience member present Zither-Drum Harmony, with great enthusiasm.
"Let's see what kind of push the Night Owl will make next..."
--The Resident Notice was slapped directly onto Heavenless Heretic's face.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly became a little curious about your ex-girlfriend's story."
Without even glancing at Heavenless Heretic, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and Night Owl's words suddenly became enthusiastic.
"By the way, do you have many ex-girlfriends?"
"Yes, there were four Girl in my Life who were willing to give their Life for me."
Bai Zhi glanced at the Night Owl with a slightly strange look, then sighed as he recalled the past.
"But later I realized that women only slowed down my sword-drawing speed. Men who want to achieve great things must eventually let go of something."
"..."
"This thing is still frantically outputting negative energy, for crying out loud!!"
Quite cleverly distanced themselves from the rather awkward atmosphere around the Night Owl, and PrayerUnderDreams and Heavenless Heretic huddled together whispering.
"I can already sense the murderous intent in Night Owl's eyes... Do you think their relationship will break down because of this?"
"I don't know, but how unfair is fate!! Someone like him can get girlfriends, and not just one!!"
Heavenless Heretic looked heartbroken.
"Never mind that, look, look, Night Owl even has a knife..."
