Preparations

Yimo returned to his thatched hut. Before he could even close the door, it slammed shut on its own with a startling "bang."

Yimo tried to pull the door open, but it wouldn't budge.

The room was pitch black, with no oil lamp lit.

Yimo turned on the electronic watch on his wrist. Using its faint light, he fumbled his way to the wooden table, took off the oil lamp's cover, and lit it with a match. Only then did the small hut gain a dim glow.

The brightness wasn't great, perhaps equivalent to three candles.

At the same time, Yimo walked to the window and observed carefully.

The window, which normally offered a good view, was now completely dark. He couldn't see anything outside.

It made sense. If one could see outside through the window and identify the werewolf, the werewolf wouldn't be able to play the game.

Yimo understood, but he was still very displeased with the pitch-black view.

Good grief!

He thought he was quite mischievous and enjoyed doing dark, twisted things, but this game's system was even more twisted.

Couldn't it have hung a limited edition stainless steel "Mizuhoshi Maid" welfare poster here instead?

It was already a death game, which was annoying enough. A little eye candy would have been nice!

Why the blackness, and that "whoosh whoosh" sound like fog, trying to scare people?

With this setup, anyone timid would surely be scared sleepless!

After all, if a monster octopus crawled out of that dark fog, it wouldn't feel out of place at all.

Yimo stopped thinking about it and walked to the door, intending to try and make a hole with a wooden stick or something.

But then he looked at his remaining 10 points and broke out in a cold sweat, thinking, Forget it.

He didn't want to be eliminated by another player, only to die by his own recklessness.

Lost in thought, he took out his identity card.

Like the game cards drawn at the start, the identity card could be materialized. The difference was that game cards could be shown publicly, but identity cards could not be revealed to others.

Yimo looked at his identity card, his expression growing gloomier. After trying the door again and finding it still locked, he pulled out a calming candy cigarette and put it in his mouth, murmuring.

"I wonder when the werewolf can act, and what time we can go out in the morning..."

"Never mind, I won't think about it..."

Yimo stood up, walked to the table, blew out the oil lamp, and the room returned to darkness.

Then, using the faint light of his electronic watch, he fumbled his way to the wooden cabinet, opened its door, and crawled inside.

After closing the cabinet, he found he fit perfectly in the narrow, dark space.

With a blank expression, he set a 5 AM alarm on his electronic watch, leaned against the cabinet, closed his eyes, and stopped thinking about anything.

Compared to the bed in the room, the cramped space where he could touch the cabinet walls with his hands gave him a greater sense of security.

Tonight, how many people would be able to sleep?

Inside Dieyu's small wooden house, the situation was completely different from Yimo's.

She was currently wearing only a camisole and pink lace panties. Her perfectly rounded curves were clearly visible, and her beautiful legs were flawless. Humming a soft tune, she looked at the pile of dresses laid out on her soft bed, contemplating which one to wear tomorrow.

The clothes, bedding, and thin summer quilt were all purchased by Dieyu from the game store using points.

Including the dresses hanging in her wardrobe now, she had only spent 10 points.

"Should I put on a face mask?" Dieyu placed a finger on her lips, tilted her head, and blinked her eyes, looking somewhat perplexed. But she quickly dismissed the thought. "Well, it seems there's no water..."

She soon gave up on the idea and returned to thinking about which dress to wear tomorrow.

She looked as if she wasn't worried at all about dying tonight.

While she was hesitating, she suddenly noticed the candy cigarette on her bed, which seemed out of place. The corners of her mouth suddenly turned up. "Siba Jungler... is really interesting..."

As she spoke, she picked up the candy cigarette, opened the box, and examined the candies, which looked exactly like real cigarettes. She said with a slight excitement, "I do want to try if it's sweet."

"Unfortunately, it's not time yet." She pinched her small earlobe.

After saying that, she put away all the dresses on the bed, stuffing them into the already crowded wardrobe. She then took out a black, sheer slip dress, her eyes flashing with a peculiar glint. "Then... tonight, I'll wear this one!"

To match, she changed into a set of black underwear and walked towards the door.

Inside the Ordinary Girl Village Chief's room.

She was currently sitting on the mat provided, looking at the items laid out on the floor with a gloomy expression. She chuckled sinisterly, "Hehehe, give up, you can't win!"

"Hmph, what trash, to even think they're worthy of making me concede!"

"Die!"

Then, taking a black stone from a small box nearby, she placed it on the Go board in front of her.

Then, the large group of white stones on the board found itself in a disadvantageous position.

It turned out that the Ordinary Girl, who was also the Village Chief, was playing Go against herself. And judging by the sheer number of stones on the board, one could tell just how serious and engrossed she was!

Thirty minutes later, the Ordinary Girl finally finished her game with herself, feeling thoroughly satisfied. Suddenly, she froze and exclaimed, "Ah... it's already this late!"

"I completely forgot about something important!"

Saying that, she took out her game card from the system.

It was a shimmering silver card.

Undoubtedly, it was an SR Card with absolutely no shortage of effects!

"Eye of Truth"

"Effect: Allows you to view the identity of one player in this match, but this game card cannot be publicly revealed."

"Card Description: With this card, you're the MVP of this game! Even if you can't find a Werewolf, can't it at least help you find a trustworthy teammate? Of course, if you're a wolf, you can also try to find a divine role! Limited to this game."

Compared to the mocking tone of Yimo's card description, the Ordinary Girl Village Chief's card had a much gentler introduction.

It was unclear whether the game system was deliberately targeting Yimo, or if Yimo truly was that detestable.

Without any hesitation, a hint of excitement on her face, the Ordinary Girl activated the card.

"Hee hee hee, of course, I choose him."

"Come on, let me see what exactly you are!"

As she spoke, with the 'Eye of Truth' flashing with dazzling light, the identity card of that person, along with its text description, appeared before the Ordinary Girl's eyes.

Upon seeing it, the Ordinary Girl Village Chief froze for a moment, then couldn't help but clutch her stomach and laugh uncontrollably, rolling around on the ground impolitely. "Hahaha... hahaha...!!!"

"I'm dying of laughter! I'm dying of laughter!"

"To think..."

"To think it's..."

Just as the Ordinary Girl was laughing her hardest, her expression suddenly changed. Her face turned incredibly grim, and she lay on the ground, muttering gloomily, "Tch... boring..."

And as the time struck midnight.

The Werewolves also received a system notification.

"Night has fallen, the slaughter begins."
