Chapter 40: Camera

Doctor. Fatty scratched his chubby cheeks and said awkwardly, Do you mean the girl in the pyjama has the same goal as Chen Xiaomeng?

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes at him. Indeed. The two were rather similar. They both used the rules within the game to target their teammates. In the last mission, Chen Xiaomeng killed Man Li. If not for Jiang Chengs caution, he would have died too.

Thinking about it, Sister Nuans death probably had something to do with that girl too.

This time, the girl in the pyjama set a death trap for the woman who shared the same room with her. This had happened twice already. This was more than a coincidence. The girl in the pyjama was similar to Chen Xiaomeng in the sense that they had an ulterior motive.Thi/s chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

Considering the womans body had been searched, Jiang Chengs first guess was they were looking for something. Fatty came to the same conclusion. This thing must be very important for them to take such big risks. It was most likely related to the nightmare realm.

Could it be something that could help us escape the nightmare? Fatty guessed, This thing would be given randomly to one of us when the mission started. If the owner manages to survive until the end, they can leave without any danger. This mechanic is very common in games.

Jiang Cheng thought about it and then nodded. Its possible but not accurate. If this thing can increase ones survival rate, then its more likely. They had no way to verify this, so they didnt dwell on it. They proceeded to the Prop Room. With Jiang Cheng leading the way, they soon arrived at their destination, which was on the other side of the school. It was a squat building with the sign of the Prop Management Centre hanging in the middle. It had a design from decades ago. The windows were fitted with rusted grille. The iron gate was so aged that the edges had curled up. Thankfully, the gate was not rusted because it had a thin aluminium coating.

Time appeared to have stopped there. Fatty blinked and commented that when he was young, his grandmas house in the countryside looked just like this.

Jiang Cheng looked around, said nothing and led Fatty over. Just as they were about to cross the front gate, the gate was suddenly opened from the inside. A womans face appeared before them.

Fatty blinked, Is that a serious problem?

The man sighed. Itll seriously affect the photography results. Its fine if there are only some vapours, but this is so damaged that the vapour has condensed into water droplets. At this point, its easier to buy a new camera.

Is there no spare?

There are, but this is already the best among the bunch, The man said with a sigh.

They were there to film the anniversary, but something happened to the cameras.

The man then leaned in to whisper, This is probably not an accident. Someone did this on purpose. He took out the camera bag and pulled the zipper open. There is a damp-proofing layer on the inside, and the bag itself is water-resistant. This level of damage wouldnt happen overnight without human tempering. Then, he glanced at the elder. The meaning was clear.

The elder didnt react. His eyes were glazed like they were frosted.

What about the two from Room 405? Jiang Cheng turned to the woman, Why dont I see them?

No clue. The woman in the ponytail was the calmest. We didnt see them when we came here. They might be somewhere else, looking for clues.

She emphasised the word, clues. And gave Jiang Cheng a meaningful profile.
