The man in the construction site uniform did not commit any crime such as insult. Instead, he took a hammer and broke many bones in the girl's body and cracked her skull. During the whole process, the door was left open, and the minor Zeng

Lai witnessed the whole process.

The school girl screamed in pain while shouting for help at him, blood splattered, and her voice was shrill and shrill, just like the [cryer] behind the door of the Rose Tunnel now.

 It’s not like he didn’t stop it.

He persuaded, yelled, and diverted the murderer's attention. He also tried to break the rope, but failed miserably. When the police came, the girl's pupils were dilated and she was lying on the ground with her last breath.

The man in construction clothes was about to "cut his body into pieces" when he was pushed aside by the police who rushed in.

 Just a little bit.

The school girl is obviously hopeless. It is almost impossible. If the police can come earlier, she might not have her skull crushed by the murderer.

 And he was rescued.

The school girl’s last glance before she died was when she looked at him through the gap in the crowd after being surrounded by the police.

In those eyes full of pain, there was no admiration for him, only hatred remained.

 It's like saying, OK, you survived.

 But what about me? I’m dead.

You can't even help me, it's not that you can't, it's that you don't dare.

 The person I like is such trash.

Since then, this incident has always been a shadow for Zeng Lai. He no longer dares to show any gentleness to girls, because subconsciously, he always feels that girls will not encounter these things if they don't get close to him.

 If he accepts the confession.

 No, if he doesn't behave in a way that the school girl likes him.

If he had been braver and found another way while the murderer was in the kitchen...

 Even though none of these things were really his fault, even though he knew it in his heart.

 But he still couldn't let it go for a long, long time.

 Zeng Lai will never say the words "dare not gamble" again.

If he could do it all over again, he would bet that he could find the key, and that he could hold on with his schoolgirl until rescue arrived.

 Everything can be gambled, especially life.

 …

Zeng Lai let out a slight wry smile as his thoughts came back to him.

It’s amazing that the distraction brought about by [Corpse Gambling] can actually allow him to recall things so long ago so clearly, as if they are right in front of him.

　　At that time, I was young and really couldn’t do anything.

 After becoming a deducer, he has actually looked past it, and the negative emotions such as regret have slowly dissipated as he has Ren Yi as a friend and works with him to make strategies.

The only thing that remains is the title of "gambler", which is somewhat different from the actual meaning of the persona.

When I think about that incident now, I feel a little sad.

I heard that the daughter of the man in construction uniforms was bullied by some girls and committed suicide. Therefore, after the man was decadent for a period of time, he developed mental problems and began a murderous journey.

 Those who were killed were all innocent.

"Cough cough cough..." Zeng Lai coughed suddenly, and the cryer behind him heard his voice and started banging on the door again.

“Help me... open the door! Open the door! I don’t want to die!!!!”

Zeng Lai discovered in a trance that there were not many yellow talismans left.

 In a scene of memories that can be called a scene replay, almost half an hour has passed.

 There is almost no time.

Zeng Lai pursed his lips and looked through the remaining sacrifices.

 He ​​wore five sacrifices, not all of them, in order to leave a chance to get the sacrifices. Some of them he thought were not needed for the time being, so he put them in the system.

The five items I have on my body now are [Destiny Bet] in the form of a dice, [Corpse Control Gamble] in the form of a yellow talisman, a ring that can dispel the curse of ghosts, a pair of scissors with weird functions, and one that increases concealment ability.

and speed necklace.

To solve the current situation, none of them can be used intuitively.

 While hesitating, half an hour was up.

The yellow talisman was extinguished and turned into a handful of ashes, scattered in the air.

The cryer suddenly became excited, and now she was twice as angry. The door shook violently, making Zeng Lai feel that even if he didn't open the door, the door wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

"Today is just like that time, very unlucky... It would be better if the rescue came earlier..." Zeng Lai murmured, took out the dice, closed his eyes, and rolled it again.

 This is his biggest hope now. If he can throw a good number, maybe everything will turn around.

However, just as the dice was thrown by him and spinning on the dirt floor, Zeng Lai suddenly felt a strange palpitation in his heart.

He felt that there was a line of sight looking at him, and what made his hair stand on end was that this line of sight had actually always been there, but he suddenly noticed it now for some unknown reason.

Before he thought he had provoked another ghost, there was suddenly a crisp breaking sound all around him, and air rushed into him. His thoughts suddenly became clear, and he felt as if the restraints on his body were completely released.

 The dice stopped.

 On the side facing up, the red dot is clearly "6"!

The next moment, in the broken air, a small circular formation flashed away, like a miniature version of the [Abyss Blood Formation], and a hysterical voice came from inside.

But it was not the friendly and weak tone that Yi always used, but a tone that seemed to be extremely weak and full of unwillingness, but had to say something: "Fortunately, let me tell you, when you open that door,

Can survive."

 At the end of the sentence, the circular array quickly turned into blood, seeped into the soil, and became silent again.

Zeng Lai was stunned for a moment. He had not yet recovered from all the changes that occurred in an instant. Only the dice stopped quietly on the ground.

 Six o'clock, ultimate luck.
