Survival Game (Unlimited)

Chapter 7: Deeply Hidden 

TL: LazyHooman

When they arrived at the hotel, Li Yi had not returned yet . Zhuang Han was sitting alone in the hall with one of his hand supporting his chin, his face showed a somewhat tangled look, seeming to be thinking about something .  

When he saw w.a.n.g San and Yu Su, he quickly stood up and smiled, “You’ve returned, did you find anything?” 

w.a.n.g San didn’t speak, Yu Su nodded and smiled, “We found some clues . ”  

Zhuang Han did not continue asking . After a little hesitation, he told them, “When I heard the knock disappear last night, I wanted to take a look, but Li Yi said it was dangerous and prevented me from coming out… I was a little timid, so once she warned me, I didn’t dare to come out .

Later, when you two were looking for clues, neither she nor I went outside . I know I did the wrong thing, so I’m not shameless enough to ask you for clues before, but I just found something useful in the hotel . If possible, I want to exchange clues with you . ”  

Yu Su still had a good impression on this seemingly honest and simple man, but the clues in her possession weren’t found by her alone . After listening to him, she turned to look at w.a.n.g San and inquired, “Big Brother, what do you say?” 

w.a.n.g San went to the central table and sat down . He stared at Zhuang Han for a while, then nodded in agreement, “Alright . You first . ”  

Zhuang Han smiled and immediately answered, “Yesterday, we searched all over the hotel, yet there’s one place we’ve forgotten, Xue Mei’s room . At that time, her body was still inside . I didn’t dare to step inside at all, so I went to search it today and unexpectedly found a cell phone under the bed . ”  

As he said that, he pulled out a very old cell phone from his trouser pocket . It was a brand that was released a long time ago . The quality was very good, to the point it could open a walnut .

“The most amazing thing was that it can still be turned on . ” Zhuang Han pressed the unlock b.u.t.ton, pressed the keyboard several times in succession to bring up the messaging interface, then he handed the phone to w.a.n.g San 

Yu Su walked behind w.a.n.g San and saw the content of the text messages .  

The earlier messages were filled with ambiguous flirting words, later the words became more and more unrestrained, then it often became inappropriate . Those contents were alternating with normal conversation . Yu Su quickly realized the owner of this cell phone was Xiao San .  

What made Yu Su even more amazed was that this Xiao San turned out to be the best friend of w.a.n.g Yan .  

As can be seen from the content of the text message, Xiao San stayed at the hotel with the excuse of visiting her good friend . On the surface, she and w.a.n.g Yan showed great bond of sisterliness, but in private, she contacted Cha Nan and often looked for opportunities to meet secretly .  

Xiao San even sent a text message to Cha Nan in the middle of the night . Cha Nan slipped out of his room and went to Xiao San, who was in the opposite room . After a tryst with Xiao San, he quietly returned to his room .  

In the meantime, w.a.n.g Yan was kept in the dark and treated Xiao San as her close confidant, completely unaware of what the other party was doing in the dark .  

In the text messages, Xiao San addressed w.a.n.g Yan as “stupid woman” and “cheap woman”, and also repeatedly told Cha Nan to quickly solve w.a.n.g Yan in order to seize the hotel .  

As for the meaning of “solve”, it was obviously not divorcement . Otherwise, it was impossible to seize the hotel .  

w.a.n.g San pressed the back b.u.t.ton and opened the photo alb.u.m . The first one was a selfie of the short-haired woman in the arm of Cha Nan, they were both lying on a bed .

“That’s what I found . ” Zhuang Han said, “What do you think?” 

Yu Su and w.a.n.g San looked at each other and opened their mouths to give a rough overview of all the clues .  

So far, the story was clear .  

Probably because it was an off-season for business, there’s barely any guest and the Proprietress decided to accompany her sister that day .  

w.a.n.g Yan found out of Cha Nan’s derailment that night . She must be struck hard by the truth because Xiao San was her best friend, and the text messages even mentioned they were going to get rid of her to seize her property . There must be a fierce quarrel and a big fight between her and Cha Nan .  

According to w.a.n.g Yan, Cha nan was drinking wine that night . Perhaps he also suffered as a son-in-law, so under the stimulation of alcohol, he went to the kitchen and took a kitchen knife to cut w.a.n.g Yan down .  

From the content of the text, Xiao San was staying here when that happened . With the basis of the knock at midnight, it was obvious that w.a.n.g Yan asked for help when she was being chased .  

There were very few tourists or perhaps none at all, so the one w.a.n.g Yan pleaded for help should be… This Xiao San .  

The result was obviousーXiao San didn’t open the door .  

No one knows what happened after w.a.n.g Yan died tragically under Cha Nan’s knife .  

After Proprietress learned the truth, it was unknown what plan she used to successfully captured Xiao San and tortured her in the kitchen .  

The stove generally wasn’t placed in the middle of the kitchen, thus she should’ve specifically asked for someone’s help to move the stove into that position, all for the sake of her revenge .  

Now, the question isーWhat happened to Cha Nan? 

Yu Su believed as long as they found the answer to this question, their mission will be completed .  

After listening to Yu Su’s clues, Zhuang Han quickly grasped the plot of the story . He thought for a moment, but before he was just about to say something, he saw Li Yi coming back from outside .  

Li Yi entered the door and saw three people gathered together in the hall . Her surprised gaze swept past Yu Su, w.a.n.g San, then fell on Zhuang Han . She questioned, “What are you guys talking about? Are there any new clues?” 

Yu Su stayed silent . Now all the clues had been told to Zhuang Han, as her roommate, Zhuang Han would tell Li Yi . There’s no need for her to say anything .  

She was thinking that, but Zhuang Han actually shook his head and answered, “Sorry, I haven’t found any clue at all . ”  

Yu Su eyelids jumped, she was a little surprised .  

She wondered if it’s because Zhuang Han’s appearance was too pure and honest, but Li Yi didn’t doubt his words at all . She just nodded and tiredly said, “As expected . Forget it, we will return to our room and rest . Later at night… we should be able to find some clues . ”  

When she said her last word, she glanced at Yu Su and went to the stairway .  

w.a.n.g San also stood up and calmly went upstairs .  

Yu Su didn’t move . She sat there with both of her hands supporting her chin and stared at Zhuang Han .  

A short while later, Zhuang Han smirked and scratched his head, he whispered in an honest and sincere manner, “I’m like you . I’m just a newcomer who has no idea what the rules at all . Even these rules told by the veteran players, we still don’t know which one was genuine .  

So in order to survive, we have to rely on the veteran players . But I’m different from you, a newcomer can’t be too conspicuous, you can act as a weak and pitiful woman, but I’m a big man, I can only pretend to be silly, don’t I? 

Li Yi’s behavior can’t be said to be wrong . She took advantage of others for her safety . However, there’s no guarantee she won’t take advantage of others in the future .  

Since we already know she is that kind of person, we can be on guard . Anyway, as long as we completed the mission, she can leave with her life . That’s enough, don’t you think?”

Yu Su laughed and nodded, “You’re right . You can really hide yourself . ”  

Zhuang Han lowered his voice and a sly smile appeared on his honest face, “In fact, I found the cell phone yesterday . ”  

Yu Su had to admire him .

She also thought Zhuang Han looked like an honest and simple guy . She didn’t expect him to hide so deep . He couldn’t be said to be an ordinary person .  

From the time she entered the game, Yu Su knew that w.a.n.g San had not told her all the rules of the game . Without knowing the rules, she decided to complete the first mission by clinging to w.a.n.g San and holding his thighs . Unexpectedly, Zhuang Han was even better than her .  

The two people looked at each other and smiled . Then they rose and left the hall to return to their respective rooms .  

w.a.n.g San sat under the window, idly flipping a book, seeming as if completely unaware of Yu Su’s arrival .  

Yu Su didn’t speak to him, she found a position to sit down and recalled those clues over and over again .  

Somehow, she fell asleep on the chair .  

But she didn’t sleep deeply, she was in the state of half-dreaming and half-awake .  

Suddenly, she woke up with a start and straightened up, “Will this missionー” 

She stopped because she realized w.a.n.g San wasn’t in the room .  

After rubbing her dry eyes, she thought it over carefully and determined this possibility was indeed great before she got up and went out .  

Yu Su didn’t go to w.a.n.g San . She went to the couple’s bedroom again and stared at the wedding photo facing the door, then inspected the room again .  

Halfway through, footsteps came from the corridor . She stopped and turned her head, she saw w.a.n.g San’s figure pa.s.sing by the door . After two steps, he stepped back .  

He looked around the room and saw Yu Su, raising his eyebrows, he asked, “Why are you here?” 

Yu Su coughed softly and answered, “I just had an idea . Did the Proprietress unable to exact her revenge because Cha Nan was promptly caught by the police? Hence she only killed Xiao San? 

If this was the case, then our mission is probably to find Cha Nan and hand him to the Proprietress . ” 

Last night, she knocked on the Proprietress’ room but didn’t get any response, this was most likely because the Proprietress wasn’t in the room at that time, but went elsewhere to find Cha Nan .  

If it’s like that, apparently w.a.n.g San had thought of this possibility even earlier than her, because he let her knock on the door last night .  

Sure enough, as Yu Su finished speaking her guess, w.a.n.g San just smiled without showing any surprise .  

He said, “This possibility is indeed very big . As soon as someone raised an alarm, Cha Nan would be directly caught by the police, which prevented the Proprietress from taking her revenge personally . “

Yu Su nodded, “Although it’s only a guess, we might as well try it . ”
