Chapter 890   Don’t Be a Coward

“The administrator has been in contact with all of us.” Qin Muye said in surprise.

“So, everyone is still a suspect, including the two of us.” Ming Yeqing said. After the six people finished collecting evidence, they gathered at the hall again.

After reasoning, they finally came to the conclusion that the murderer was the boyfriend of the girl who played Manager Cheng.

Her boyfriend explained the motive of his character according to the script.

But this was not the end.

They chose the high-difficulty version.

So, this was only the first level.

Just after deducing, an NPC ran out again, shouting that the old mansion administrator was dead.

The old mansion administrator died in the room of the previous deceased, the boss of the company.

The girl mumbled, “We just came out of the boss’s room not long ago, this is too fast.”

The first round’s murderer had been found, but the boy would still participate in the second round’s reasoning.

After all, the second round’s murderer was among them.

Thus, everyone went to the boss’s room together.

Just as they reached the door of the room, the corridor lights suddenly flashed, clearly off.

The flickering light in the corridor seemed to carry the sound of electric current.

Qin Muye hurriedly hugged Ming Yeqing’s arm, “Ah Qing!”

Ming Yeqing simply hugged Qin Muye and protected her in her arms, “Don’t look.”

Ming Yeqing hugged Qin Muye while gently patting the back of her head to comfort her.

Under his comforting voice and being tightly protected by Ming Yeqing, Qin Muye gradually calmed down.

She slowly released Ming Yeqing’s arms, but instead she tightly grabbed Ming Yeqing’s lapels.

This way, Ming Yeqing’s position of hugging Qin Muye was more convenient and comfortable.

Qin Muye was currently closing her eyes.

The flickering lights started to flicker. Even with her eyes closed, she could still feel the flickering lights.

Suddenly, she heard the scream of the little girl who was playing the role of Manager Cheng, and the surrounding lights were completely extinguished.

Even though Qin Muye had her eyes closed, she couldn’t help but scream along with her.

Originally, Ming Yeqing was just protecting Qin Muye in her arms.

This time, she simply picked Qin Muye up.

Ming Yeqing lowered her head, her lips were only a centimeter away from Qin Muye’s ears, and she said in a low voice, “It’s okay, I’m here.”

Qin Muye’s ears trembled twice.

She was indeed not afraid now.

Because her brain was buzzing, she could no longer sense any information from the outside world.

She kept hearing the sounds of Ming Yeqing’s breathing

She could also feel the scorching temperature caused by Ming Yeqing’s breathing on her skin.

Tan Mo was also hugging Wei Zhiqian’s waist, and Wei Zhiqian had one arm wrapped around Tan Mo’s shoulder to protect her.

Tan Mo said, “Why do I feel that this script is like a horror-themed escape room. Whoever wrote this script, they have really good imagination.”

Another little girl was already hiding behind her boyfriend.

“Should we open the door?” That boy asked Wei Zhiqian and Ming Yeqing for their opinions.

“Let’s open it.” Wei Zhiqian said, “The plot still has to go on.”

The boy saw that Ming Yeqing had the same intention and thought to himself that he could not be afraid. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.

So, he pushed the door open.

Qin Muye also popped her head out from Ming Yeqing’s embrace.

At this moment, there was nothing to be embarrassed about, and she still felt safe in Ming Yeqing’s embrace.

Tan Mo felt that she was braver than Qin Muye.

She still wrapped her arms around Wei Zhiqian’s waist, but she kept her eyes open the entire time.

The other little girl was hiding behind her boyfriend. She grabbed the clothes on her boyfriend’s back with both hands. She curiously poked her head out from behind her boyfriend.

Seeing that the boy was also a little scared, Wei Zhiqian asked Tan Mo in a muffled voice, “Are you scared?”

“A little, but it’s alright.” Tan Mo hugged Wei Zhiqian’s waist tightly. Even when he was so nervous, he did not forget to sigh. Wei Zhiqian’s waist was really thin.

It was really easy to hug.

“I will open the door. If you are afraid, hide behind me and don’t look.” Wei Zhiqian said, “Let Ah Qing protect you and Muye behind you, you don’t have to worry about what will appear behind you.”

Tan Mo nodded.

Ming Yeqing heard Wei Zhiqian’s words and carried Qin Muye to stand behind Tan Mo, saying to him, “I’m behind you, it’s fine.”

As for Qin Muye, she was being held in Ming Yeqing’s arms, her feet were not touching the ground, but she was very stable.

At this moment, she felt more secure than Tan Mo. She was completely not afraid.

Even if someone suddenly appeared behind Ming Yeqing, as long as she was nestled in Ming Yeqing’s arms, she would not afraid.

The boy saw Wei Zhiqian open the door and did not let him go, so he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Actually, he did not dare to stay at the end of the team.

Initially, he did not think much of it.

But when he heard Wei Zhiqian say that there might be more coming, he was afraid.

Especially the administrator’s diary, which recorded monsters and so on. Even if they knew that this was just a game, they still couldn’t hide their fear.

It was just like an escape room, even though they knew that those ghosts and monsters were disguised as NPCs, they would still cry out in fear.

It was just that Wei Zhiqian had already gone to take the lead, and he seemed to be a little older than Ming Yeqing. So, he was too embarrassed to let Ming Yeqing stayed at the end.

It was obvious that Yeqing and Wei Zhiqian were acquainted friends.

So, he could only stay at the back.

His girlfriend was so scared that she said with a trembling voice, “I don’t want to be at the end.”

“Then you come in front of me.” The boy said, “I’ll be at the end, you stay behind this little brother.”

The girl nodded and went behind Ming Yeqing

Qin Muye saw that Tan Mo was not afraid and realized that she was still being hugged by Ming Yeqing.

At this moment, she finally felt embarrassed and tugged on Ming Yeqing’s lapels, saying in a low voice, “Ah Qing, put me down, I can walk on my own.”

“Okay.” Ming Yeqing nodded, “If you’re afraid, I’ll hug you again, it’s fine.”

Qin Muye didn’t know what to say. Ming Yeqing didn’t treat her as an outsider at all.

Of course, they were all best friends and indeed didn’t treat each other as outsiders.

When she heard the word “hug”, Qin Muye’s face turned red.

Fortunately, they were now in complete darkness.

Ming Yeqing could not see Qin Muye’s face turn red.

Although Qin Muye was not carried by Ming Yeqing now, she was still in his embrace.

Ming Yeqing still held her with one hand, letting her stay tightly in his embrace.

Previously when they were searching for clues, the two of them were close, but they were not as close together as now.

If it was said that Qin Muye could feel a little bit of Ming Yeqing’s body temperature previously, now her entire body was clearly covered by Ming Yeqing’s body temperature.

Ming Yeqing’s breathing was still burning her ears.
