The man in question was Chen Sihan. He looked at the handsome stranger in front of him and began to doubt whether he had entered the wrong place.
Chen Sihan raised his head and glanced at the door number, confirming that it was indeed Building E, Room 406.
Could he have made a mistake? Or perhaps Yang Tianhao hadn’t returned home after leaving the company at all?
But the problem was, who were these two people in front of him? Didn’t they say that Yang Tianhao had only taken Zhou Qing with him when he left the Yang family?
Chen Sihan’s gaze fell on the young man behind the man, and he froze for a moment, unable to regain his composure.
Su Zhen initially thought he was about to be exposed, but when he saw Chen Sihan’s puzzled expression, he calmly said, “Step aside.”
Chen Sihan’s attention was all on the young man, and upon hearing the man’s words, he instinctively stepped aside.
Su Zhen immediately took Ruan Qing’s hand and tried to leave.
Chen Sihan was surprised by this and reached out to grab Ruan Qing’s other hand, preventing the two of them from leaving.
After he had grabbed Ruan Qing’s hand, Chen Sihan felt a bit rude, but he didn’t let go. Instead, his ears turned slightly red, and he stared straight at Ruan Qing.
“Um, um, my name is Chen Sihan. Can I be your friend?”
Su Zhen looked at Ruan Qing’s hand that Chen Sihan grabbed, and his expression darkened instantly.
A second later, he smiled in a way that sent chills down one’s spine.
Su Zhen remembered now.
This man was the one who had been holding onto his wife earlier.
Since the other party had taken the initiative to come to him, how could he possibly let him down?
Su Zhen pulled Ruan Qing directly into his arms and touched his hair, speaking in a gentle and refined manner, “Wife, it seems I forgot to take your ID just now. Could you go get it?”
Ruan Qing hesitated for a moment, his eyes showing a mix of panic and fear, as if someone else had caught him. After all, he had just experienced murder and dismemberment, so encountering someone now was clearly unsettling. He had to act.
Moreover, the murderer trying to separate him into this situation while giving that reason was likely an indication that the man was planning something against the person they had just met.
Ruan Qing’s misty eyes filled with moisture as he seemed to believe this reason, nodding slightly in fear. He then slowly made his way to the bedroom.
Meanwhile, Chen Sihan, who had heard the man’s term of endearment for the young man, froze in place. “Wife?”
Speaking of it, from the beginning, he felt like he had heard the voice of the man in front of him somewhere before.
It was very much like that nuisance... Yang Tianhao’s voice...
Chen Sihan’s gaze fell on the photo on the living room wall, and the man in the photo was indeed Yang Tianhao.
Clearly, he hadn’t come to the wrong place; this was Yang Tianhao’s home.
And the woman in the photo seemed to be... the beautiful young man from just now?
Chen Sihan, as if thinking of something, widened his eyes, then without turning back, he quickly moved to the side.
He left his original position in an instant.
And in the place he had just vacated, Su Zhen looked at the knife he had stabbed into thin air with a raised eyebrow and said casually, “Not a bad reaction.”
Presumably, he was sure that Ruan Qing couldn’t hear him anymore, so Su Zhen used his original voice.
And Chen Sihan also understood what was going on.
It seemed that someone had already beaten him to killing Yang Tianhao.
And the man in front of him not only killed Yang Tianhao but also disguised himself as Yang Tianhao, trying to leave with the other’s wife.
Chen Sihan’s mind flashed with the image of the young man, and suddenly, he had a daring idea.
If he killed the man, could he also learn the man’s methods...
Chen Sihan was shocked by his own thought, but he couldn’t suppress it. It was even getting stronger.
But Chen Sihan didn’t have time to think more about this because he soon found himself lying on the ground, becoming a corpse.
Even in death, he didn’t close his eyes, and his dilated pupils seemed to carry a hint of unwillingness.
But even if he was unwilling, he was already dead.
Su Zhen dragged the body into the kitchen and neatly dismembered it once again.
The subsystem watched as Su Zhen flushed the pieces down the drain and couldn’t help but speak, [Do you remember why you came here?]
Although it was a cold and unfeeling, mechanical voice, it seemed to carry a hint of resentment.
Su Zhen paused, looking at the thigh bone he couldn’t flush down the drain and said casually, ‘What’s wrong? Is this person a key NPC in the scenario?’
Su Zhen continued before the subsystem could respond, ‘But you can’t blame me for that, can you? You didn’t give me any core clues for the scenario, so how am I supposed to know who can be killed and who can’t?’
‘And you didn’t stop me just now.’
The subsystem said coldly. [Then you go and kill Zhou Qing.]
‘Oh, I refuse,’ Su Zhen replied calmly, while trying to fit the thigh bone that couldn’t be flushed down into the freezer.
If it were a whole body, the freezer wouldn’t naturally fit three men. But if it were just bones that couldn’t be flushed down, there was still plenty of room.
When Su Zhen opened the freezer, one could clearly see that it was filled with bones scattered all over, as well as three skulls, which looked incredibly eerie.
After listening to Su Zhen’s words, the subsystem gave a mocking laugh, as if taunting.
Su Zhen didn’t pay attention to the subsystem’s strange tone. After dealing with the body, he hummed a tune happily and went to find Ruan Qing in the bedroom.
However, the bedroom... was empty.
Only the curtain by the window remained, swaying gracefully in the air due to the open window, making a rustling sound.
Su Zhen looked at the signs of a struggle in the bedroom, and his face instantly darkened.
Someone had kidnapped his wife while he was away.
***
Meanwhile, Ruan Qing was already far on the outskirts of the Xishan Residential Area.
He hadn’t been kidnapped.
After returning to the bedroom, Ruan Qing suddenly found that he could see with his eyes. So, without thinking, he created some signs of a struggle in the bedroom, as if he had been kidnapped.
Then he used a strip of cloth from the window to climb down to the third-floor balcony and left directly.
Although being with the murderer might provide more clues, it was just as dangerous as dealing with a tiger.
Moreover, his physical condition was special, and his memories had been tampered with. He couldn’t trust anyone.
Ruan Qing walked along remote paths to avoid encountering others.
Just as Ruan Qing was about to find a place to hide, he heard a polite male voice behind him, “Hello, please wait.”
Ruan Qing heard the man’s voice, but he didn’t respond and even quickened his pace.
However, the man behind him followed him directly and continued politely, “Hello, may I ask if you know Xiao Xi?”
“Xiao... Xi?” Ruan Qing stopped in his tracks.
The person who called out to Ruan Qing was the advanced male player.
After Ruan Qing stopped walking, the advanced player walked directly up to him, and then he froze in place, the questions he wanted to ask stuck in his throat.
The audience in the live stream also froze.
[Why is this beauty here alone? This place is so remote, isn’t he afraid of encountering danger? After all, who could resist him?]
[I really don’t understand! How can his husband be so trusting? Always letting him go out alone. Could he be one of those cuckold fetishists?]
[Wait a minute, something seems off. This guy... the husband/NPC, he doesn’t seem blind?]
[Was he pretending earlier? But he pretended too convincingly! And why would he pretend to be blind? I don’t get it!]
At first, Ruan Qing thought it was an NPC who knew Xiao Xi, but with just one glance, he could tell that this person was most likely a player.
A player...
Ruan Qing instantly flashed a brilliant smile at the advanced player. “Hello.”
The advanced male player, upon seeing Ruan Qing’s smile, widened his eyes and gazed at the beautiful eyes in front of him with infatuation, as if he could only see him at this moment.
It wasn’t just the advanced male player; even the viewers in the live stream were captivated, staring at the screen with fascination.
The young man naturally had a face that turned heads, capable of capturing everyone’s attention even without smiling.
When he did smile, it added to his charm. His delicate eyebrows and eyes curved slightly. His smile was pure and clean, but the beauty mark at the corner of his eye added an indescribable allure.
Moreover, his allure wasn’t superficial or tacky; it was as if it had seeped into his very bones, carrying a hint of seduction.
He was like a blooming poppy, and everyone knew that ahead lay sin and abyss, an endless hell, but no one could resist him.
After all, no moth could resist the dazzling light in the darkness, even if it meant facing death.
Because the live stream was separated by a screen, it naturally didn’t have the same impact as seeing Ruan Qing’s smile in person. Some of the viewers lost themselves for a moment but soon realized and quickly typed in the chat.
[Wait a minute!!! Streamer, wake up! There’s something wrong with this NPC!!! It seems like he’s hypnotizing you!!!]
[Don’t look into his eyes!!!]
However, it was already too late.
While the advanced player was in a state of confusion, the syringe in Ruan Qing’s hand had already pierced the major artery in his neck.
Immediately, he injected the air from the syringe into it, but not all of it, just a small portion.
This was a dose that wouldn’t cause death.
However, because of the air mixed into the bloodstream, it would result in insufficient blood supply to the brain and heart, causing symptoms like overall weakness and dizziness.
What Ruan Qing wanted was precisely this dizziness effect.
Hypnotizing a very vigilant player in an instant without any auxiliary drugs, tools, or environmental cues was a difficult task.
But it was different when the target was dizzy or disoriented.
The advanced male player naturally reacted when Ruan Qing pierced his neck.
But the air entering his major artery made him instantly dizzy, and he felt completely powerless, unable to resist Ruan Qing.
Even if he wanted to resist, it was too late.
Ruan Qing looked at the advanced male player. “Look into my eyes.”
After hearing the voice, the advanced male player, in a daze, looked into Ruan Qing’s beautiful eyes.
“You’re tired.”
The advanced male player was already somewhat dazed, and after hearing Ruan Qing’s voice, he suddenly seemed genuinely tired. His vision blurred as if he saw phantoms, making it hard to see anything clearly.
Even Ruan Qing’s figure appeared to multiply.
In less than three seconds, the advanced male player’s gaze became vacant and scattered, as if his soul had been captured.
Clearly, he had been successfully hypnotized.
Ruan Qing’s voice carried an ethereal quality, as if it could penetrate one’s soul. “I am your master.”
“From now on, you will unconditionally obey all of my commands.”
