Chapter 190: To Kill Or Not To Kill?

Su Bai sat by the bedside after he had got himself wet. He shook his head. The problem was now simplified; he just needed to find the shuttler from the other side.

However, he still had no specific method.

From identifying the problem and planning out the specifics, Su Bai was clear that there was no use to ponder too much.

Su Bai suddenly felt that his body had become lighter; the clothes he wore were also dry. He took a glance at the bedside cabinet and saw a bottle of alcohol appear.

He knew he had returned.

Su Bai was very calm this time.

A row of yellow words appeared on the floor below his feet.

Please head to the conference room.

The conference room?

Su Bai stretched himself.

Damn it, was there a need for voting today?

Qin Yang had died in the last scenario, didnt that count?

One person had died, couldnt this round of voting be postponed?

Su Bai was feeling moody. He had already figured out many things and had obtained enough evidence for his speculation. But now, he was forced to face a very brutal problem:

He had a very high probability of obtaining the highest vote!

He would soon face the same ending as Chen Yixin. He would be voted to death by the people at his side rather than being killed by the shuttler from the other side. No matter what, as long as he died, the fella from the other side would automatically accomplish his own task and would be sent back to the real world. He was feeling unreconciled thinking that the other party had such an advantage.

Su Bai reached the restaurant; he did not take anything to eat but instead walked very calmly into the conference room. Liu Tao did not sit in the last row but instead sat in the front row.

Su Bai sat down on his original seat; his knuckles were rubbing on the surface of the conference table bringing a tinge of melancholy. He had to face this situation even though he knew the path to survival. The strings of fate were indeed very weird.

Su Bai had a sudden understanding of how Chen Yixin felt when she had the highest vote. That expression was not the same as Zhao Zhen and Qian Lan, Chen Yixin was really feeling unreconciled.

Really unreconciled because she knew she was totally different from all these voters. Chen Yixin also knew that there were not only audiences, there were also a few self-approbated ghosts!

Everyone sat down very soon.

Qin Yang was dead, Qian Lan was dead, Zhao Zhen was dead, Chen Yixin was dead; the total headcount was sixteen people.

It was very obvious that one of the ghosts had been taken out by the regulation to sew up Qin Yangs appearance.

After looking around, Su Bai couldnt recall who was missing; he only knew that it was meaningless to continue pondering. Su Bai placed his only arm and reclined on the table.

Su Bai did not know why but he was very calm. Even if he was to be voted to death, he was still very calm. He did not have thoughts of pulling anyone to accompany him. The funniest part was, he didnt know who the true audiences were and who were ghosts when facing all of them.

When Su Bai went crazy, he wanted to drag along Chen Yixin to perish together because he felt there was no hope for himself. Luckily, Chen Yixin was indeed an audience as well as a shuttler. From a different perspective, it was not a loss to drag her along to die.

But now?

Liu Tao?

Xu Zhenzhen?

Su Bai was unsure whether they were human or ghost

The regulations of the story were able to create an idiot like Zhao Zhen; it was naturally able to create a much smarter character. For example: Xu Zhenzhen, Liu Tao. The ghosts did not know they were ghosts, they still thought of themselves as audiences. They would put in a lot of effort for their own survival. This point alone was able to make his balls hurt. The regulations of the story being able to reach such heights really made him speechless. Even the NPC[1] did not know he was a NPC.

The name list had appeared. Su Bai took the pen, browsed through the photos of all the sixteen people and simply ticked on Xu Zhenzhens photo.

The name list then disappeared.

Perhaps because he had escaped death once, Su Bai did not have any sense of danger and was not stimulated this time. He was calm and collected. It rains when heaven deems fit, mother remarries when she wants to[2]. Come what may.

The vote results came out soon after.

Just as expected, Su Bai laughed when he took up the list.

He had 14 votes.

He really had the highest vote. Looks like the others had no qualms about his death.

Eh?

Su Bais gaze fell on someone else. His name was on the name list. He was called Li He; he had one vote. Xu Zhenzhen also had one vote, it was given by Su Bai.

Su Bai started to search his memories. Li He he did not have much interaction with him. His impression of him was that he was a low profile and bashful person. He did not speak much, did not mingle much and seemed very ordinary every time. He did not look like the type of person who hid himself well. He wouldnt be an audience if he was able to hide to the point of perfection, he would be an Oscar winner.

Hold on

Su Bai rubbed his in between his brow.

Li He!

One vote!

Su Bai slowly stood up, his gaze swept around back and forth. He had finally found Li Hes position. A man who was not very tall sitting at the right-hand corner. He did not attract much attention.

When the other party saw Su Bai, he had obviously panicked. He immediately waved his hands and said:

I didnt vote for you, I didnt vote for you. I voted for myself.

Everyone in the conference room was in shock. Su Bai was someone about to die, why did Li He act so cowardly?

Another scene appeared in Su Bais mind at this moment.

When he saw Chu Zhao at the other game circle, he had told Chu Zhao he was Su Bai but Chu Zhao naturally replied: Oh, I know you are called Qu Men.

If Li He was a shuttler, he should have said something that the regulations of the story did not want others to know. That is why his words and enunciation had been modified by the regulations.

Otherwise, nobody would suddenly act so cowardly and say such things.

Since he was about to die.

But

Eh?

Why was he not dead yet?

Su Bai was stunned.

It wasnt only Su Bai; the others were just as stunned. The waiting time had been a little longer than usual.

A piece of paper appeared on the table. It was the first time two pieces of paper appeared in the same conference.

There were very few words on it and the meaning was simple:

Because a member had died before the vote, the person who had the highest vote would not face death this time.

Everyone was in an uproar. How could there be such an ending, whats the point having this round of voting?

Many people immediately got up and left,. They did not dare to look Su Bai in the eye. The scene where Su Bai tried to perish together with Chen Yixin had scared them witless. They were afraid that Su Bai would randomly find someone to perish together. Other than Li He, the rest of them had voted for Su Bai.

Su Bai just stood there calmly watching the other audiences leave the conference room hurriedly. He seemed to be extremely quiet.

Li He was not in a rush to leave the conference room but chose to remain inside. Su Bai squinted his eyes. He placed his hand on the Hellfire Shotgun by his waist.

Li He was the shuttler from the other game circle; it was already a hard fact.

As long as he killed him right now, he would be able to return to the real world. His task would be considered accomplished. Everything was about to end and he could leave this damn mind-boggling game.

Could he kill in the hotel?

Or did he need to wait until they entered a new scenario?

Killing someone in the hotel,

Maybe

It was alright?

Su Bai was battling against himself in his mind. When he recalled the name list this time, luckily the story regulations mentioned that nobody needed to die this time die due to Qin Yangs death, otherwise Su Bai would already be a corpse and his soul would be the same as Zhao Zhen and Chen Yixin, forever trapped in this darn place.

This ending was many times more painful than being stabbed by a thousand knives.

If he killed in the next scenario

Su Bai was not sure what the regulations of the story would arrange. If he was not arranged together with Li He but far away or if Li He had identified himself as a shuttler, he would face greater danger.

Audiences who had enmity with him were a dime a dozen. He didnt have much confidence in killing him in the next scenario, Su Bai was unwilling to take such a risk.

Li He currently still had not left. He actually gave him so much time to think?

Su Bai found it hard to comprehend.

By using his own thoughts to guess Li Hes line of thought, which was considered measuring another mans foot by ones last, was Li He also considering to kill this single-armed fella?

Were both their thoughts the same?

Su Bai took a few steps forward. He was in the last row and blocked the conference room in an instant. He then took out his Hellfire Shotgun and pointed towards the approaching Li He.

Li Hes body was trembling but his expression showed absolute steadfastness. Both his hands displayed actions like reciting a curse. He shouted loudly:

You are called Su Bai, right? I want to see who among us would die. Come on, lets fight!

The person who lived would get to leave this place,

The person who died is considered to have bad luck!

It did not matter even if the soul is forever trapped here!

Su Bai no longer hesitated; he approached Li He at a fast speed. The Hellfire Shotgun was pointed in between Li Hes eyebrows, a cold smile was revealed at the same time:

Looks like Im a little bit faster than you.
