Infinite: Dawn Game

Chapter 232 I think I'm quite popular lately, right?

Number 8.

Looking at the number 6 slip of paper in his hand, Yu Shijiu sighed, "Just two numbers short."

He was just two numbers away from sharing a room with Lu Chusheng.

It seems that luck really isn't something everyone has—

“Number 3?!”

Xu Han's surprised voice came from the left, and Yu Shijiu subconsciously turned her head to look over.

Just then, Xu Han snatched the note from He Lingling's hand and examined it repeatedly, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

He Lingling was annoyed by his attitude, so she grabbed the note back and rolled her eyes.

"Number 3 it is, number 3. My luck is really terrible."

Despite saying that, He Lingling still seemed quite happy.

After all, being able to share a room with someone you know means you don't have to worry about being used as a scapegoat by other players in the same room at night.

Xu Han scratched his head happily: "What's wrong with us? Are you being sarcastic? Our luck is anything but bad! We're incredibly lucky!"

"What's wrong with it?" He Lingling retorted directly.

"I remember someone just saying that it's not good to live with a woman. Aren't I a woman?"

"..." Xu Han was taken aback. He had actually considered it seriously for a moment, and finally said blankly:

"That might be true, no, you're a woman too, but you're different..."

He Lingling sneered upon hearing this: "Different? Come on, give me a clear and specific difference right now!"

Xu Han scratched his head and blushed.

After silently watching the bickering unfold, Yu Shijiu blinked and sighed at the expressionless Lu Chusheng:

"Look, Sister He and Xu Han are luckier than us."

Although men and women are different, we know each other and are good teammates who can confide in each other.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chusheng clenched the note in his hand and silently hummed in agreement.

I wonder if this note can be exchanged—

"what!"

A player in the crowd who was about to exchange notes suddenly screamed. The finger holding the note was cut open as if something had slashed it, and bright red blood flowed out from the cut.

Although it wasn't a serious injury, the fact that there was a wound even though nothing was visible would frighten anyone with a sound mind.

Almost at the same time the wound appeared, Lu Chusheng and Yu Shijiu turned their heads to look at the dining table.

The old housekeeper at the dining table still had that same smiling face, but the difference was that something seemed to be dripping blood from her fingertips.

It's a knife.

Yu Shijiu raised an eyebrow.

He glanced at the player not far away who was still unaware of the situation, clutching his fingers and looking pale, and let out a soft "wow".

Lu Chusheng looked at him.

"Captain Lu," Yu Shijiu said with a grin, without turning his head, as he watched the elderly housekeeper slowly putting the knife back into her apron pocket at the dining table.

Do you think she can teleport?

Otherwise, how do you explain the old housekeeper standing by the dining table, but the player on the other side near the door suddenly getting slashed?

"No."

Lu Chusheng directly denied it, saying, "They probably don't allow us to change the notes."

The player who just took the note from someone else to exchange it got a bloody cut on his hand.

The old housekeeper chuckled as she wiped the blood from her hands, her gaze sweeping over the surrounding players like a venomous snake.

"By the way, you can't change your number after you draw it, so don't change it."

For a moment, many players who had intended to secretly change their numbers froze in place.

They're not blind. The old housekeeper suddenly said that, and the first player who tried to change his number just now suddenly injured his hand. Anyone with a brain would know that changing numbers is definitely not allowed.

After finishing a "mini-game", the players could only anxiously start looking for their "roommates".

Once all the players had found their "roommates," the old housekeeper picked up the wooden box on the dining table and chuckled.

"Then let the guests get to know each other first. I'll go and urge the kitchen to bring out dinner as soon as possible."

After saying that, the old housekeeper carried the wooden box out of the living room and walked towards the corridor at the right corner.

It seems that over there is a kitchen or a storage room or something similar.

Yu Shijiu's "roommate" was a male player who seemed quite timid. He was thin and looked a bit timid, but standing next to Yu Shijiu, he was still almost half a head taller than him.

Yu Shijiu, realizing this, was speechless.

He bit his lower lip in annoyance, until it was bright red and almost bleeding before letting go.

what happened?

How come this short and skinny man, who looks like a stick, is taller than me?

Yu Shijiu was 200% unhappy.

As for Lu Chusheng's "roommate"... it's quite a coincidence that he turned out to be the male player who initially approached him to promote his team.

The male player was clearly surprised as well. Still somewhat dazed, he walked over to Lu Chusheng with the slip of paper bearing the number 8 and stopped, saying somewhat embarrassedly:

"Captain Lu, well, it seems like we'll be sharing a room from now on."

The viewers in the live stream burst out laughing as soon as they heard that.

Wang Rui, in particular, was watching the live stream on her screen. She was slurping instant noodles from her bowl, her head covered in sweat, but she still managed to laugh heartily with the player next to her.

"I'm dying of laughter, is Brother Lu being teased?"

The baby-faced male player next to her also wanted to laugh, but he held it back and reprimanded Wang Rui with a serious expression.

"How could you slander Brother Lu's innocence like this—"

"Come on," Wang Rui retorted without any politeness, "Everyone in the inspection team knows that you're the one who talks the most badly about Brother Lu behind his back, saying things like 'ruthless and heartless.' Kang Shaojie, what are you pretending for now!"

The baby-faced male player named Kang Shaojie blushed instantly and, in a fit of embarrassment and anger, reached out to snatch the instant noodles from Wang Rui's hand.

"You're not allowed to eat this! You're not allowed to eat this! This is instant noodles I bought for you! I don't want you to eat it now!"

"Tsk tsk tsk," Wang Rui said sarcastically, protecting her instant noodles, "and you're getting angry, you stingy little thing!"

Kang Shaojie: "..."

His already youthful face turned even redder with anger, and he turned and stormed out of the room.

Wang Rui was stunned. She called out "Hey!" several times, but couldn't get Kang Shaojie to come back.

"Narrow-minded."

Wang Rui muttered something and happily continued eating her instant noodles while watching the live stream.

That being said, it's rare to see Brother Lu make a fool of himself.

I wonder when I'll see him looking helpless again...

------

Inside the living room, the male player was completely unaware that there was anything wrong with what he was saying. He kept talking about how much he admired Lu Chusheng, and he got more and more excited as he talked.

It wasn't until Yu Shijiu, who was standing nearby, curiously leaned in and joined the conversation that the conversation began.

Have you ever heard of me?

Yu Shijiu was genuinely curious, her beautiful, round almond-shaped eyes fixed on the male player:

"I seem to be quite popular in town lately?"
