There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

Xu Shuo noticed that the three people outside were hesitating to come in, so after some thought, he simply had Long Xunyin close the door.

After all, everyone from Paradise Bird had come in.

And it was even better without the people from New An Bureau present.

Xiu Bargas's ability seemed troublesome, but it wasn't entirely unmanageable—his Absolute Territory didn't grant him any additional powers within the field; it simply made the user more adept in combat.

In other words, hand-to-hand combat was possible.

"What do you want to do?"

The two were still in the Quantum Laboratory on the three hundredth floor. Long Xunyin was almost clinging to Xu Shuo, wearing a tender and bashful smile, and asked in a soft, coquettish voice.

Xu Shuo's psychic ability focused on the people downstairs, and he suddenly asked, "If I hadn't shown up, what would you have planned to do?"

No sooner had his words fallen than the tenderness on Long Xunyin's face cracked.

She was vaguely eager, twisting the young man's head to face her, and said with a threatening smile, "Alpha, I did all this for you, so if you weren't here, then all of this would be unnecessary, wouldn't it?"

Xu Shuo smiled, "You're right."

If he hadn't triggered the Character Card, the chief of New An Bureau really wouldn't have appeared.

And, even further back, if he hadn't unlocked the Memory Palace, he wouldn't have known that he still had psychic ability, known that he might be the chief of New An Bureau, and paid extra attention to these matters.

Suppose, if he knew nothing...

What would be the outcome of this confrontation?

Xu Shuo glanced at the slot beneath the Character Card that hadn't been filled yet, took hold of Long Xunyin's hand that had been twisting his head, and gently soothed the emotionally agitated woman.

He took Long Xunyin's hand and gently kissed the back of her fair, delicate hand; then, lifting his gaze with a smile brimming with amusement.

"Then, are you still willing to do it for me?"

"...!"

Long Xunyin was really easy to coax.

Although such a woman might appear paranoid, even to the point of recklessly crazy, and her willful actions seemed terrifying,

she could actually do anything for you as long as you cater to her preferences.

She was a perfect, tireless tool person.

The power of Quantum Connection spread through the entire Technology Building, effectively turning the building into Long Xunyin's vessel. She could clearly monitor the movements of those people and cast virtual images right before their eyes, thoughtfully conserving Xu Shuo's spiritual power.

Long Xunyin's eyes sparkled as she looked at him, "Alpha, you don't like these people, do you?"

Xu Shuo, looking at Xiu Bargas, said casually, "I really don't like them, but I'm also worried that you won't be able to handle them."

"It's okay, I can do it!"

Having just received a kiss from her beloved, Long Xunyin was now highly motivated and eager to prove herself. Her silver-white eyes looked down at those people below, cold and heartless.

However, among those from Paradise Bird, only one person suddenly clutched his head and screamed in agony.

There were four people who came in from the outside, plus Luo Kun; there were five members of Paradise Bird inside the Technology Building who could act.

However, only one person's neural network was manipulated.

The previously smug Long Xunyin's face turned extremely ugly in an instant!

Xu Shuo, on the other hand, wasn't surprised.

Putting aside the fact that Paradise Bird had previously collaborated with Long Xunyin, which might have led them to anticipate this situation and prepare accordingly, those people were players!

As players with various experiences, upon learning of the existence of abilities to control mental consciousness in this world, they would certainly be wary.

If they were completely unaware of the script they would enter, and utterly unprepared, the players might have possibly fallen into the trap, but players led by a mentor would prepare the appropriate items before entering the script.

Moreover, due to the erosion of the Abyss, most players essentially prepared items to protect their brain consciousness.

Xu Shuo, who initially wanted to save money and didn't buy any, was stuffed with a few items by Hong Rao.

It's just unknown how long they could last.

Xu Shuo contemplatively thought, showing no displeasure, but Long Xunyin beside him felt like she had failed in her task and worried that he would be angry.

Standing up, Long Xunyin, with a cold gaze fixed on that group, said, "It seems I underestimated them. Alpha, wait for me. I'll go and sort out these annoying things right away!"

As she spoke, Long Xunyin casually deployed an Energy Barrier next to Xu Shuo.

The glimmering bluish quantum energy shone brightly as the intricate network of light trapped Xu Shuo within the laboratory. Then, Long Xunyin turned and vanished.

The laboratory became quiet.

Xu Shuo sprawled lazily in the chair, propping his chin, unsnapped a cufflink from his shirt, and threw it away. In a moment, the cufflink was quantumly disintegrated, not even dust remained. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Everything happening in the laboratory was also within Long Xunyin's perception.

Thus, although she left her body with the helmet here, she had no worries whatsoever, especially since her neuronal carrier was now the entire Technology Building.

Xu Shuo looked at Long Xunyin's body without much care and walked toward the nutrient tank in the corner.

The door of the nutrient tank was sealed; at the head of the tank, there was a square-shaped semi-transparent glass window, where one could vaguely make out a person lying inside.

Xu Shuo manually opened the tank door.

The young man inside lay there looking serene, with no apparent changes to his appearance. He had been well-protected by Long Xunyin, or perhaps it was his own body's longevity.
