There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

"Alpha, you're okay!"

Upon seeing the boy unharmed, Long Xunyin, who had just burst out like a mad demon, instantly clung to Xu Shuo like a little bird relying on a person.

However, the face of the director of the New An Bureau was indeed very tender, so this scene could only be interpreted as Long Xunyin forcing herself upon tender grass.

Xu Shuo patted her on the shoulder as a form of comfort, then lifted his head to look at the glowing sphere overhead that was growing larger and larger.

After expanding, the glowing sphere absorbed part of the mechanical wall of the Technology Building as energy. It now hung overhead with flashing neon lights and a misty glow, resembling both a thunderstorm and a cosmic nebula, giving it an especially oppressive appearance.

That quantum state energy sphere, serving as the medium for the space jump channel, should technically be considered the mission complete if only it was destroyed.

But it was also really too big!

And such a massive quantum energy, if not handled properly, might cause a catastrophic explosion that could turn the entire vast Huai'an District into a massive crater!

A better solution would be to directly deal with Long Xunyin; without her as the vessel, the energy should be able to dissipate.

But Xu Shuo was a bit worried about the Character Card slot.

Because whether it was the mission given by the system or the director of the New An Bureau's mode of operation, both seemed to hint at this point.

He had tried killing a few people from the Paradise Bird, and that turned out fine, but Long Xunyin seemed to have an unusual relationship with the boy... The director of the New An Bureau was quite compassionate towards such a genius who could contribute to human development; otherwise, he wouldn't have assisted her with experiments.

With these thoughts in mind, Xu Shuo weighed his options internally.

He lowered his head to look at Long Xunyin's face, full of dependency and affection, stretched out his hand to touch her face, then pinched it gently.

"Alpha..." Long Xunyin was a bit shy.

"Can you stop all this, turn off your quantum laboratory, destroy the quantum link skills, and then return to your original body to be an ordinary person?" Xu Shuo asked softly.

"..."

Long Xunyin became rigid.

A fierce darkness began to creep over her silvery-white eyes as she clutched Xu Shuo tightly, her expression a bit terrifying, "Alpha, I won't let you leave me!"

Xu Shuo proceeded to say, "I won't leave you."

"But you're asking me to give up everything, and you know very well that without these, I have nothing with which to keep you! Alpha, I will absolutely not let you go!" Long Xunyin stared at him stubbornly, her tone becoming quite extreme.

"But I said, I won't leave you," Xu Shuo was very patient.

"I won't give up these!"

"Calm down, I'm just worried that you will hurt those people, but I won't leave you."

"I don't believe you!"

Long Xunyin, completely defiant, howled with a ferocious face. With her abnormally agitated emotional fluctuations, the quantum entity in the sky once again expanded, faintly forming a vortex.

Xu Shuo: "..."

Xu Shuo calmly looked at her, then suddenly said, "What if I definitely want to turn that thing off?"

Long Xunyin, who had just been docile like a little bird, was now unyielding, staring at him with a frenzied gaze, "Then I'll kill everyone in this building! Everyone in this world!"

As her voice fell, accompanied by the fluctuations in her emotions, those originally controlled individuals inside the Technology Building suddenly clutched their heads in agony.

Their expressions were blank as they screamed in pain, but this behavior was deliberately caused by Long Xunyin.

It was all to make the person before her yield.

Xu Shuo consistently looked at her calmly, as if oblivious to the screams of those around him, then once again gently placed his hand on Long Xunyin's cheek, his gaze tender as he smiled slightly.

Long Xunyin blinked, her insanity easing slightly, thinking that Alpha had indeed relented.

However, in the next moment, her entire body began to dissipate, along with her active spiritual power and neural consciousness.

"Alpha..."

Long Xunyin looked at him in a daze.

Disbelief, despair, and sadness flickered in her eyes.

But until the end, the woman continued to gaze at him wholeheartedly, her crystalline silver eyes reflecting the figure of the young man.

She didn't resist.

Perhaps she no longer had the will to resist, or perhaps she simply couldn't.

[Congratulations on completing the task: Destroy the Space Jump Channel.]

[Congratulations to the players for completing more than 50% of the main tasks. This theater will end in one hour. Please prepare accordingly.]

For faction tasks, once one faction completes its own tasks, the other will automatically fail.

Even if they manage to complete tasks afterward, in the context of the faction, it is still a failure, at best, they will receive some performance points.

The reason why the game hasn't been declared over is that there is still one survivor from the Paradise Bird faction by default, meaning the other side still has a chance to complete their tasks.

Even though Long Xunyin had dissipated into smoke and clouds.

But the "Quantum Link Skills," certainly there must still be research data in existence.

If they could put in extra effort and replicate Long Xunyin's seventy years of research within an hour, there would still be a chance to continue completing the tasks. The Script Space will fairly and justly give every player the opportunity to strive!

Xu Shuo watched as the thing above his head stopped expanding and began to dissipate.

Then, he pulled out the Player's Handbook and looked at his Character Card slot, which was full.

He smiled ambiguously.

The reason he had been so patient with Long Xunyin earlier was simply to have her make a choice for him, and to give the director of the New An Bureau a choice as well.

When faced with the choice between saving one person or countless others, the young man would definitely choose the latter.

No matter what that one person meant to him, he would still choose the latter.

Back then, the young man's wife, who possessed the "Extensive Knowledge of the Past and Future" ability, might not have necessarily died so early, as long as she didn't give birth to the daughter Aurora, she wouldn't have died.

But the girl said Aurora was the future of this world, destined to become its guardian.

So, knowing his wife would meet death on the day of their daughter's birth, the young man did not oppose her decision, allowing Aurora to be born into this world.

Because he chose countless others.

Therefore, Long Xunyin, who threatened him with the whole world, was like offering her neck to the blade, asking him to end her.

Xu Shuo fulfilled her wish.

"Doctor Chu, you're so heartless. Even with this big sister's deep affection for you, you still had the heart to strike,"

Suddenly, a sigh of regret came from beside him. Luo Kun.

In his hand, he was holding a person whose body was twisted and half-dead, tortured to a point beyond recognition, still laughing hoarsely and intermittently, consciousness clearly shattered.

For those he despised to the extreme, Luo Kun was never stingy with his cruel methods.

This guy was downright antisocial.

After torturing Xiu Bargas for a while, Luo Kun's long-held frustrations dissipated, and he excitedly approached Xu Shuo, practically courting death.

"Doctor Chu, my secret..." Luo Kun asked with a grin, "Did you really find out?"

"We have one more hour," Xu Shuo said.

"Hm?"

Luo Kun discarded the thing in his hand and wiped the blood from his hands. Upon hearing this, he turned to look at Xu Shuo, tilting his head in apparent confusion.

Xu Shuo stared at him, his eyes gradually darkening, the corners of his mouth curving into a gentle smile, and he said softly, "Let's find out if you can be killed by me."
