Weird Regulator

There are many ways a player can be eliminated, but they all involve death.

Apart from some plot kills and suicides, the closest thing to the rules is destroying the game console.

Even if Ruru is special enough that his game console is portable, he cannot escape this rule.

Because he is just a player.

It is indeed a wonderful way to pass the level by borrowing ghosts to kill people.

However, things just don't go as expected.

When the game console fell to the ground, it disappeared without making a single shattering sound.

Fang Shenyan was distracted for a moment, and saw the game console returned to Ruru's hands.

At this time, Ruru raised her head and looked at him for the first time.

There was an inexplicable emotion in his empty eyes, and he immediately lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the buttons.

On the small screen of the game console, the black and white home scene remains unchanged.

"Failed again?"

Just like last time, after another round of testing, Ji Li also had expectations.

Because there are still many clues that have not been used, the matter will not be solved so easily.

Fang Shenyan frowned and said softly:

"I don't understand the game, but I shouldn't lose."

Ruru's player identity must be among the game attributes of the root ghost.

So this way of survival is absolutely no problem from a rules perspective.

So, what is still missing...

At this time, Ji Li suddenly asked:

"Look at the game console, is there anything missing?"

An unexpected problem appeared, drawing Fang Shenyan's attention to the game console itself.

This is a very old game console. Not only is the screen black and white, but the screen is also cracked.

The paint on the buttons on the left and right sides has long been worn off, revealing their bare original color.

But if you look carefully, you will find that there is a certain button position on the right hand side that is empty.

Because during the first inspection, Fang Shenyan's attention was focused on Ruru.

Moreover, the black holes exposed by missing keys are very similar in color to other keys with peeling paint, so they are ignored.

After Ji Li's reminder, he discovered this.

"Yes, the first button on the right handle is empty."

"That's it. Ruru's player identity is incomplete because his game console is broken."

Fang Shenyan turned around and looked at the screen in the sky, and asked suspiciously:

"How could you have thought of that?"

Not to mention that Ji Li was not here at all, even he himself did not notice this detail at the first time.

Ji Li on the screen has recovered from all his injuries due to resurrection. He is smoking a cigarette and gives an explanation:

"You said that Ruru has been playing with the game console, but his screen always stays at home.

Ruru’s house is the first scene of the game, but judging from the description, it is slightly different from the first scene.

So I guess that his current game progress should be the lost 'prologue'.

So why is he stuck in the prologue and unable to get out.

The answer is that he's not really into the game. "

This store manager task has progressed to this point, and many things have become clearer.

This mission is mainly based on the game and is constantly advancing. The only player is Ruru.

If we follow the normal route, Ruru should control the ten store managers and go on a series of weird journeys.

But judging from subsequent developments, this route collapsed from the beginning.

Because the prologue and third act are missing one after another, the plot is extremely fragmented.

And many store managers continue to collect clues while breaking through the levels, but they can never find a complete main line.

This mission gives people the most direct feeling:

It's just a level-breaking game, but the plot is very weak.

So Ji Li guessed that there was probably something wrong with the "protagonist" Ruru, which caused the subsequent plot to be fragmented.

So, what went wrong with Ruru.

The frozen picture of the handheld game console and the unpromotable plot have already given the answer.

His game console broke and was stuck in the prologue and couldn't get out.

This led to all the store managers losing their goals from the beginning. They only knew how to go all the way down and rely solely on their personal performance.

The reason why Ji Li thinks of "lost keys" can be traced back to Clyde.

On his body, there are two objects related to game consoles.

Red ball, button.

The former has already corresponded to Gu Qingyun, which is the round rocker hat taken off from the game console.

There is only this blue button left, and the corresponding position has not been found for a long time.

So, when Ji Li heard that Ruru had been playing with the game console, he just thought of this.

“As soon as we put the blue button back on the console, the game would work.

Then you can execute your follow-up plan. "

Fang Shenyan frowned and thought repeatedly.

He didn't doubt Ji Li's judgment, on the contrary, he strongly agreed with it.

If you look at it this way, then the way for him to survive by destroying the game console and killing Ruru with the help of the root ghost is established.

But this will involve a difficult problem that can never be overcome.

"How do you get the blue key to me?"

Fang Shenyan showed a hint of fatigue, turned his head and looked at Ji Li on the screen, and asked in a deep voice.

The blue key is in Ji Li's hands, and there is a gap that can never be crossed before it is sent to him.

This is a world entered through the wall of Game Room 11, and it is also the most special place of this mission.

Although on the surface, Ji Li and Fang Shenyan were not far apart, there was another question about their qualifications to open the door.

Fang Shenyan can enter and leave the game room freely because he is a faceless person.

But apart from him, no one else has this qualification.

But now that he came to this circular space, there was no way to return.

Therefore, the blue key can only be delivered and cannot be taken back.

In order to get here, Fang Shenyan spent three days and three nights, plus the efforts of all store managers.

Not to mention that Su Chenghe has now used up the right to use the power of shuttle. Even if he has it, who can become the second faceless person?

"No one can do this now..."

"I can!"

A deep voice sounded at the right time, with determination and impetus in his tone.

As an old store manager who lived to this day ten years ago, he always carries an impact that belies his age.

The most important thing is that he understands the rules of the thirteenth floor and is the store manager closest to the Faceless Man except Fang Shenyan.

And he is in the game world himself, so he doesn't need the help of Su Chenghe.

If there is really one person who can break the deadlock now, then it is only Hou Guisheng.

On the other hand, there was the sound of metal lighters clashing from Ji Li's side, and he said with a natural expression and smooth speech:

"My body was left at 0215, where there is a blue key and a resurrection coin.

Gu Xingjian's body is in front of the 1601 door, and the weakness of the faceless man lies there.

Store manager Hou can pick up these three items at any time.

Fang Shenyan has opened the golden gate. All you have to do is go through it, and there will be lessons for you to follow in the future.

Finally, Su Chenghe took the music box and took refuge in 1307. "

Su Chenghe listened to Ji Li's arrangements and felt uneasy in his heart.

This level of smooth action deployment makes it difficult to believe that this is just a temporary idea.

However, despite being shocked, he did not expect that he was a part of the plan, so he asked:

"Why should I hide too?"

Ji Li took a deep breath of cigarette, and the long hair hanging down his waist began to grow slowly again, and the gray in his eyes was condensing.

But this time, the gray showed signs of surging to swallow up the light of humanity.

"Because after this cigarette burns out, I will turn into a ghost."
