After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain -
Chapter 213: I Want a Bedroom Close-up of the King-sized Bed
Rong Fan crouched down to examine it, then turned to look at Zhang Jialin who was crying nearby, his eyes falling on the blood-stained hands.
“…You killed him?”
The moment he spoke, Zhang Jialin trembled and grew even more agitated. He muttered like he was possessed:
“No… no… I only did it to protect myself… it’s over, I’m going to die… I’m going to die, I killed someone, I ruined peace!!”
Rong Fan frowned at him, placing a hand on his shoulder. “Calm down! You’re not going to die!!”
“No!! I’m going to die!!” Zhang Jialin’s eyes were full of fear and panic. He pushed Rong Fan away, clutching his head, voice choked with sobs.
“I’ve had enough, I’ve had enough of all this!! They’re all monsters! This place is full of monsters!!”
Zhang Jialin had completely lost it. He looked at the blood on his hands and frantically wiped them on his clothes, face filled with dread.
“I didn’t kill a person, no, I killed a monster, I didn’t kill a person!”
Seeing this, several players stood there, unsure what to do.Jiang Xi pushed up her glasses and frowned. “So Mu Shichen turned into a monster, and Zhang Jialin killed him in self-defense?”
Chen Zhixia nodded in agreement. “If that’s the case, no wonder my character wanted to kill his parents. Probably because he knew they’d turn into monsters at night and wanted to kill them during the day.”
He looked at Rong Fan. “By the way, what about your sister? This mutation seems random.”
Rong Fan lowered his head without answering, only narrowing his eyes and silently staring at Mu Shichen’s corpse. It was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Chen Zhixia didn’t get a response, and pouted slightly, silently grumbling—what’s with the act? No one has a clear lead, how would just thinking get you an answer?
He rolled up his sleeves. “Let’s clean up the body first. We’ll talk more tomorrow.”
Jiang Xi nodded. Watching Chen Zhixia get to work, she walked over to Rong Fan and spoke softly, “Do you have any leads?”
Upon hearing that, the man paused. After a few seconds of silence, he answered, “I did find something. In Rong Fan’s diary, he mentioned something about a God of Light and a God of Peace.”
Hearing that, Jiang Xi rubbed her chin. “That sounds familiar… is that from the announcement downstairs?”
“Yeah. But based on the content of the diary, those two gods don’t seem too friendly.” As he spoke, Rong Fan glanced at the corpse on the ground, a glint flashing in his eyes.
“And if this building is really under the gods’ protection, why would there be monsters and deaths?”
That’s just too ironic.
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Xi’s voice suddenly rang in his ear.
“That announcement—I remember it was written with a marker, right?”
A marker?
Rong Fan was stunned at first, then realized something and looked at Jiang Xi. “You mean… find out who wrote it?”
“Yeah. As long as we figure out who wrote that announcement, that person must know something about the gods.”
At her words, Rong Fan lowered his gaze, eyes thoughtful. “So we need to find a way to get their handwriting… without tipping them off.”
Jiang Xi narrowed her eyes. “I’ve got a way. Leave this part to me.”
“There’s one more thing. Have you noticed that from the start, we’ve only ever seen even-numbered floor residents in this building? The elevator for the odd-numbered floors has never moved.”
Ever since she moved in, the elevator for odd floors had stayed stuck on the first floor. It hadn’t moved once.
Even when she went down to check the announcements in the evening, she only saw residents from the even-numbered floors.
Even if praying was a task only for them, wouldn’t residents on the other floors need to go up and down too?
She had even stayed to observe for a while, but sure enough, no one used the elevator.
It was like the whole building only had even-floor residents.
Rong Fan paused slightly, then turned to look at her.
Actually, he had some impression of this Jiang Xi—she was indeed one of the more capable players in that group of newbies.
If peace hadn’t gotten to her first, deva originally wanted to recruit her too.
He nodded. “I noticed that too. You collect the handwriting tomorrow, I’ll find a chance to check the odd floors.”
Chen Zhixia had overheard their conversation and quickly turned his head. “I’ll go with you.”
Seeming to remember someone else, he hesitated and asked, “Should we bring Bo Jingmo too?”
“We should.” Before Rong Fan could answer, Jiang Xi pushed her glasses and said, “Otherwise, Xu Wei might make Bo Jingmo sign something, and it’ll mess things up.”
Rong Fan frowned ever so slightly, barely noticeable, but still responded with a quiet “Mm.”
【Whoa, this Jiang Xi’s got some skills.】
【+1. Didn’t expect a newbie to be this sharp.】
【Heard she made it on the newbie leaderboard. She’s clearly got some chops hahahaha.】
【So now they’re trying to find the gods… I get the feeling the gods are shady as hell.】
【Well, at least we got through the night without a disaster.】
【Alright, plot’s wrapping up. Time to cut to the fourth floor, Room 403. I want a king-sized bed close-up in the bedroom.】
【The king-sized bed cracked me up. What are you trying to do up there?!】
【Don’t treat us like outsiders! Camera guy! If there’s good stuff, share it with the class.】
【But for real, even if there is something, the camera probably won’t dare record it—that’s Li Mu we’re talking about. What if she finds out?】
【To be fair, it’s past midnight, and Li Mu clearly looked sleepy. What could really happen?】
The next morning, golden sunlight pierced through the clouds, spilling over the tall building.
A crisp knock broke the morning silence.
“Coming.”
Jiang Xi stood outside Room 403 holding a form. Hearing the lazy female voice from inside, she took a deep breath.
She had memorized the wording she planned the night before. She was just waiting for the person inside to open the door so she could deliver it in one go.
Footsteps grew louder. With a “click,” the door slowly opened.
A polite, gentle smile appeared instantly on her face. “Hello, Madam.”
The woman inside exuded a lazy charm. Her long hair was casually tied up, and she wore a white V-neck sweater.
The loose neckline revealed her elegant collarbone, and the red kiss marks on her fair, slender neck stood out vividly.
She leaned lazily against the doorframe, raising an eyebrow at Jiang Xi.
“Something you need?”
【…No freaking way…】
【LOL, there are mosquitoes in winter?! D*mn mosquitoes!】
【Wow, and not just one bite either! So evil! Sis Li Mu, let me swat them for you!】
【The comments above are killing me. You can fool the bros, but don’t fool yourselves.】
【You’re trying way too hard to act like you don’t get it. It’s embarrassing.】
【F***, it’s already past midnight! Bo Jingmo, ever heard of being gentle with a lady?!】
【Crap, more than one bite?! I’m gonna lose it!】
【I wanna kiss too~^3^】
【Of course. Nightlife always starts after midnight.】
【Bo Jingmo, aren’t you eating too well lately? I’m so jealous.】
