[Use evil to control evil] The system is set to complete the corresponding task, then even if you die while traveling through the world, it does not mean you are truly dead.

Sure enough, when Huo Yinting woke up again, she was already in the third world.

This time she was lying in a clean and tidy pink-blue room, wearing comfortable home clothes, and there was a cup of still steaming coffee next to her.

Outside the window, storms and rain fell like the Milky Way, thunder and lightning tore the endless night fiercely, and the world seemed to sink into a cruel black and white picture, everything was oppressively suffocating.

She stood up suddenly, drew the curtains, and patted the dial of the metal wristwatch like a reflex, and a system prompt box immediately appeared in front of her eyes.

[[Hell Game] Player Task: Survive in the game and uncover the puzzles of the game. Please read the background story carefully, determine your identity, and receive the props. 】

"..."

Huo Yinting was surprised.

The co-author is playing a game this time, don't even know the name of the boss? Does she have to rely on her to find the boss?

What's more terrible is that the system didn't even give the most basic character profile? How can one be more tricky than one time?

She is currently in an extremely irritable mood and almost didn't spill the cup of coffee directly.

But fortunately, she quickly calmed down and continued to read the background introduction with patience.

…Ok, she actually became the original heroine of the story directly this time, and then the system automatically modified all settings to be related to "Huo Yinting".

The original heroine "Huo Yinting" is also 24 years old, a dessert chef, whose father is a policeman, died on duty a year ago. Since the death of her father, she has suffered from long-term insomnia.

She had always suspected that the cause of her father's death was related to her father's friend, the psychologist Zhou Qing, so she sent a message to Zhou Qing one night and asked to meet and discuss.

Unexpectedly, it was this text message that pulled her into a terrifying killing game, and she died in the game before she could find out the truth.

Therefore, Huo Yinting now replaces the original heroine and plays the game again.

The props given by the system this time are nothing but a mobile phone.

She clicked on the sent list in the message and saw that there was a message that had just been sent.

[Doctor Zhou, I think we need to meet to make it clear that you have not fully explained the matter. 】

The recipient is Zhou Qing, the psychologist in the background of the story.

Suddenly hearing the phone vibrate, Zhou Qing finally replied, concisely:

[Tomorrow at 5 o'clock in the evening, a city pier. 】

This is probably the invitation of the **** game.

She stared at the screen for a long time, but finally bowed her head and turned back with the word "OK".

Of course you have to go to the appointment.

After performing the task for a long time, it is inevitable to be physically and mentally exhausted. What's more, in the last world, she hadn't closed her eyes for almost three days, and had been rushing around, beating and killing her, so she slept extraordinarily this night.

As a result, I woke up and found that it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon the next day.

She stood up, washed hastily, picked a light-colored casual wear from the closet that was easy to move, and then went out and stopped a taxi to the pier.

When the phone time showed exactly five o'clock, the taxi finally stopped slowly at the destination.

Huo Yinting got out of the car and ran all the way, but when she arrived at the dock, she didn't see Zhou Qing's figure. She took out her mobile phone and tried to dial Zhou Qing's number, but all she got was a mechanical female voice response, and the other party shut down.

There was a speedboat parked at the pier, which was obviously rented temporarily. Seeing her approaching, the sailor asked with a smile on his face: "Is it Mr. Zhou's guest?"

Huo Yinting paused, then nodded: "I think so."

"Then please get on the boat, ten guests are here."

Ten guests?

She recalled the background of the story and concluded that the so-called ten guests should be the players participating in the game.

What kind of game is it so mysterious?

She was confused and boarded the speedboat to check, and found that there were nine other young people sitting inside, and everyone's eyes fell on her in an instant.

"Excuse me..." she asked carefully, considering her words, "Where is this speedboat going?"

"Xizhao Island." The white-clothed boy sitting on the far left looked at her and curiously said, "You have been invited by Doctor Zhou, don't you know that you are going on vacation?"

"On vacation?"

He nodded: "Well, go to Dr. Zhou's private villa on the island. He said that this is a convalescent benefit for the patient, and it will take seven days."

It turns out that these people are all patients in Zhou Qing's psychological clinic.

Huo Yinting was puzzled, but seeing that the speedboat had started, she had no time to do anything, so she simply sat down next to the white-clothed boy and prepared to go to Xizhao Island together.

That's probably the location of the game.

Before that, we must first have a basic understanding of this group of players.

"Hello." She took the initiative to stretch out her hand to introduce herself, "My name is Huo Yinting."

"My name is Qiao Huai." The boy held her hand, his crescent eyes smiled crookedly, "You look so beautiful."

Huo Yinting has not been praised by others, but it is unavoidable to be a little embarrassed to be praised so innocently by a strange boy. Unexpectedly, before she had time to thank, she heard the young man on the opposite side sneer: "At a young age, she will talk sweetly. Who taught it?"

Qiao Huai was obviously a little unhappy: "I'm 22 years old, why am I so young?"

The man rolled his eyes lazily: "Well, that's it, after all, he has a childish appearance, which makes it easy to look away."

"Guan Chen, don't say it." The beautiful and **** girl next to him is obviously his girlfriend, but she seems more sensible than him. "Everyone is going to spend seven days on the island together. Be polite. Okay?"

"Wonderful." Guan Chen scolded, "Where is so much nonsense? When is it your turn to teach me?"

It is estimated that this kind of relationship between the two people has become normal on weekdays. The girl doesn't seem to be very angry, but smiles helplessly: "Everyone, my name is Feng Niange, and I am the anchor of God of War. This is my boyfriend Guan Chen, who has a bad temper. Good, but very kind-hearted, please forgive me."

"Guan Chen? Is it the young master of the chairman of Guancheng Company?" Not far away, a gentle-looking man with glasses stretched out his hand graciously. "

Qiao Huai muttered in a low voice: "Which is so extraordinary..." Huo Yinting immediately held his hand, Huo Yinting held back a smile and shook his head at him.

Hearing the other party said again: "Zheng Fei is a gold medal designer of Yunteng Company. I have the opportunity to cooperate."

Guan Chen glanced at him and didn't shake hands with him. He looked very disdainful: "As soon as you design clothes, what chance do you have to cooperate with me?"

"this…"

In order to avoid the atmosphere being too embarrassing, Feng Niange hurriedly finished the game: "So, how about the others, why don't you introduce yourself briefly? Anyway, you have to get to know each other sooner or later."

Qiao Huai said: "I have already said that, my name is Qiao Huai, I just graduated from university and haven't looked for a job yet."

"Li Huijun." The girl next to designer Zheng Fei opened her mouth with a timid voice, "I just graduated."

Huo Yinting simply repeated his setting: "Huo Yinting, dessert chef."

"My name is Qi Ji, the owner of the bar." The man sitting on Huo Yinting's right has a very comfortable temperament. In ancient times, he should have been the kind of gentleman type. He saw her look at himself and smiled at her. "Just In the bar street in Dong'an District, if anyone wants to patronize in the future, I will give you a 50% discount."

The girl in black in the corner, with smoky makeup painted extremely bright, holding a picture book and a box of paintbrushes in her arms, her eyes seemed to be soaked in ice water, with a creepy cold feeling: "Chu Ying."

"I'm Jin Lin, and I can be considered a well-known lawyer in City A." The man in the suit and leather shoes has his hair meticulously taken care of, and the corners of his lips are always filled with a meaningful smile, as if he can perceive people's hearts, which fits well. In the traditional sense of the elite, "If you have any troublesome things in the future, you can find me."

Feng Niange counted, and always felt who was still missing, turning his hair back, a young black-clothed brother sitting far away from everyone, always silently looking at the sparkling sea, without any intention to participate in the topic.

"That...well, sir, don't you plan to get to know everyone?"

When the other party heard the words and glanced back, everyone could see his face clearly, and Li Huijun even gave a soft "Oh" sound.

The deep and handsome eyebrows, the cold and sullen temperament, are like the stars in the sky and the moon under the sea, with a sense of distance that cannot be approached.

His gaze settled calmly on Huo Yinting's face, and for a moment, he reported himself to his house neatly.

"Pei Yi."

Huo Yinting's fingers on her knees tightened suddenly, and the sunset light coated her whole body with a light golden layer. She sat there, watching him for a long time, almost flushing her eyes.

You have to believe that in every world, we will all meet again.

When night fell completely, the speedboat docked on the shore, and Xizhao Island arrived.

This is really a very remote island. Except for the mountains and water, trees and grass, as well as the European-style three-story villa, you can't even see a person's shadow. Under the shadow of the faint moonlight, it is invisible and transparent. There was a bit of bleak and cold breath.

"Why does Doctor Zhou want to build a villa here?"

"Perhaps he bought it from someone else?" Qiao Huai made a reasonable guess, "This island and this villa are obviously old, and it's normal to change owners several times."

Qi Ji smiled at the side: "Xizhao Island has no special scenery, it is not worth developing as a tourist resource, and the transportation is not convenient. No one will come here on weekdays. But given that it is close to the mountain and the sea, the environment is quiet, and it is very suitable. Relax your body and mind, so Doctor Zhou will choose it as a recuperation place."

"It makes sense."

The rich second-generation Guan Chen behind him complained loudly: "Is Lao Tzu staying in this place where the birds do not **** for seven days...Hey! How did that speedboat drive away?"

"That is a rented speedboat. There must be other guests making appointments. It is impossible to wait here all the time." Feng Niange coaxed him softly, "Don't worry, Dr. Zhou invited us here just to keep us away from the city and get closer. Naturally, seven days are not long, and they passed quickly."

"To be honest, I have already regretted it now. If you hadn't been fooling around, I wouldn't have been reduced to mixing with these boring people. It would be a waste of time!"

Huo Yinting turned her head and said in a daze: "You feel like a waste of time and you can swim back. No one is stopping you."

Guan Chen instantly became angry: "What is your attitude? Do you know who you are challenging?"

"Except for a low IQ, I don't know anything about you."

Feng Niange was very worried that Guan Chen would do it directly, so she quickly took his arm and motioned to Huo Yinting with her eyes to ask her not to irritate her boyfriend anymore.

Huo Yinting's attention was focused on Guan Chen, and she accidentally tripped over the gravel under her feet and almost fell. Pei Yi happened to pass by, and her hand was about to support her arm.

He looked down at her, his tone was steady and gentle: "Slow down."

The two looked at each other, Huo Yinting's lips lightly twitched, she put her backhand on the back of his hand, and only let it go for a moment.

"Thanks a lot."

She spoke very lightly, as if she were a stranger when she met for the first time, Pei Yi also nodded politely and deliberately slowed down, keeping a delicate distance from her.

He and her have such a tacit understanding. When he doesn't know what is about to happen, it is best not to be too familiar with the other eight gamers.

However…

The peace and joy of reunion cannot be hidden anyway.

Regardless of their respective identities and tasks this time, in fact, being able to meet again is the greatest luck.

Lawyer Jin Lin glanced at the phone and frowned suddenly: "What happened? There is no signal on this island?"

Designer Zheng Fei listened, and quickly took out his mobile phone to check: "There is really no signal, then how do we contact the outside world?"

"Such a remote island, it is estimated that it is impossible to have a signal." Feng Niange said, "Doctor Zhou's original intention is to isolate us from the outside world for these seven days, so that we can cultivate our body and mind with peace of mind-you see, there is a mobile phone storage at the door of the villa. "

Sure enough, the square, floor-to-ceiling mailbox was the place for them to store electronic products.

The moment Huo Yinting put her mobile phone into the mailbox, Huo Yinting's mood was very complicated. She felt that doing so was naive and absurd, but inexplicably full of ritual.

The young man in white Qiao Huai dropped his mobile phone after her. Seeing her look different, he asked with concern, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing." Huo Yinting shook his head subconsciously, "I'm thinking, the benefits that Doctor Zhou gives to patients are really interesting."

"Aren't you his patient?"

"...I am, but I just asked him about insomnia recently, it shouldn't count."

The two of them were chatting without a word, and saw that Guan Chen in front had simply and roughly kicked the door of the villa. Everyone entered one by one, but Zhou Qing did not come out to greet him, and the huge living room was empty.

It is worth mentioning that the interior of the villa, which is dominated by red and black, is unusually strange, but it seems familiar, and the sealed iron cage placed in the corner, as well as the retro wall clock and LED display on the central wall, make it easier to evoke People's bad associations.

Huo Yinting has a small part of the memory of the original heroine. She lowered her head and stared at the deep red marble floor under her feet, frowning slightly: "This scene is very similar to..."

"It's very similar to the game that was popular in the past two years." Qiao Huai seemed to feel, "It looks like it's called... "Hell Puzzle"?"

When they heard the name of the game at first, everyone else turned their heads. Li Huijun hesitated and said, "Didn’t "Hell Puzzle" ceased operations last year? Because of...that incident..."

"Okay, don't mention it." Guan Chen interrupted her impatiently, "It's bad luck!"

Li Huijun was very jealous of his fierce appearance, and instinctively hid behind Zheng Fei. Who knows that Zheng Fei didn't notice her, so he was just busy echoing Guan Chen: "Yes, what are you doing with such unlucky things?"

Huo Yinting asked in return: "Why did Dr. Zhou decorate the villa into a game scene, or is it a game that has ceased operations?"

Before the voice was over, there was a loud noise, and the door of the villa behind him was closed again, locking them all inside the house.

"What's the matter?" Feng Niange hurriedly asked, "Is anyone out there?"

Pei Yi strode to the door, and after studying it for a while, he replied in a cold voice: "It's an electronic lock. There is a mechanism in the villa that controls this door."

Huo Yinting looked around vigilantly: "Then there must be camera equipment here too. Someone is monitoring us secretly."

As if to confirm her conjecture, the next second, the LED display suddenly turned on, and a line of shocking characters appeared on it:

The game "Hell Puzzle" has officially started.

The author has something to say: The first chapter introduces the players, please be sure to read these ten players carefully and remember their names.
