Chapter 4: Game Cancer

“Put it in the coffin.” You Xi remembered his haunted ‘Sunday’ room. It was beneficial that he could take the opportunity to change his bedroom. Everyone else slept properly in beds. It wasn’t right for him to sleep in a coffin.

As if thinking of something, You Xi said cynically, “But there are only two coffins. If there are too many corpses in the future, it will get interesting.”

You Xi didn’t know if putting the body in the coffin would bring good luck. In order to avoid being caught, he had to first portray himself as a big boss with uncertain interests and weird hobbies.

No matter what the madman with mental issues did, there would be a group of people who would explain his behavior.

“Coffin?” Everyone wondered. “Where’s the coffin?”

You Xi smiled and said, “In my room.”

When everyone saw the two large shining coffins placed in the Sunday room, and how the whole room was set up like a mourning hall, everyone was silent.

Especially the middle-aged man; his forehead wouldn’t stop sweating.

Fortunately, he was clever yesterday and didn’t fall into the boss’s pit. Otherwise, he would have had to sleep in a coffin like the boss had last night.

The problem was that the boss was able to sleep in a coffin and still shine brilliantly the next day, but if he himself slept in a coffin, he would be there for the rest of his life.

The middle-aged man and a fat otaku, who was about 30 years old, took the initiative to roughly move the corpse. The middle aged man was anxious to make a good impression in front of he boss, so he worked extremely hard.

After exhausting himself, he finally put the corpse in the coffin. The middle aged man wanted to shut the coffin, but You Xi suddenly stopped him. “Let’s do this for now. You guys leave. Jiang Jiang, please take my silk blanket to Dr. Liu’s bed. I gave him my coffin, so I’ll go to his bed to sleep tonight.”

That was really great news. Jiang Jiang almost cried with joy and ran away holding the silk. The others slowly dispersed. Only Gu Mian was reluctant to leave.

“Sir.” He hesitated. “Someone died in the Wednesday room. How could you sleep in the bed of a dead person?”

You Xi: “”……I don’t care.”

This was a cheapskate villa. He didn’t know how many players have lived and died there. He didn’t believe that every time a player died, the game would change the bed. Which bed had never had a dead person? Which bed was clean? It was good enough to have a bed so he didn’t have to sleep in the coffin anymore.

You Xi waved his hand and gestured for Gu Mian to leave too. “I need to arrange something. You leave first.”

After Gu Mian left, You Xi stared at Dr. Liu’s body in contemplation. After a while, he put Dr. Liu into his space pocket.

“Di di di, Warning! Level 3 Warning!” The system administrator was about to suffocate. What are you doing, boss? Are you dying? You wouldn’t even let go of the corpse!

As soon as the system administrator tried to prohibit You Xi from disrupting the development of the ghost attack, he saw You Xi’s face sink into a rare scowl.

“This is also a warning?” You Xi said. “This player’s corpse is not your public property for the time being, right?”

Seeing the boss’s appearance that was like ‘you never put me in your eyes,’ the system administrator suddenly stopped beeping. [1] It was only a level 3 warning. 004 was already more cooperative toward their work than the previous three bosses, so he should accept it when he saw it.

“Then… please handle the corpse with care. Don’t hit him cruelly before midnight.” The system administrator was weak. “It is very pitiful for a player to become a game npc after death.”

“Oh. I see.” You Xi returned his lips to a smile.

Entering the Wednesday room. Jiang Jiang has already very discerningly made the bed for You Xi. You Xi had nothing to do during the day, so sent Gu Mian and Jiang Jiang throughout the villa to search for clues while eating, drinking, and having fun in the room.

There was no bathroom in the hellish Sunday room yesterday, and You Xi wasn’t feeling well.

“System, are you there?” You Xi asked. “If I take a bath, will it be broadcast live?”

The system administrator answered in a hurry. “004, you can rest assured that we will not record the content of your bath without permission. When you take a bath, there will be a snowflake screen in the broadcasting room. But… if you’re willing to show it to your fans, our camera will never capture any parts below your chest while you bathe.”

The system administrator swallowed his spit roughly, and tried his best to coax him. “This is your first game. If you can attract more fans, it will benefit the growth of your points and game currency. You’ll need krypton gold in the later stages of the came do purchase props and information, which is profitable without consequence.” [2]

There was no shortage of wild bees and butterflies around You Xi, and he had always been clear about the fact that he looked great. In real life, he had a wealthy family and wasn’t short on money at all, so he naturally was disdainful of being a streamer. But now that his life was hanging by a thread, it was better to earn more money to save his life. Anyway, it was impossible to crawl through the network cable and through the screen to eat him no matter how crazy his Yan Fen fans were. [3]

If everyone saw him, everyone saw him. You Xi thought that he had a great body. Why should he be an ugly wife afraid of seeing strangers? He was obsessed with games in the past, and he had seen game livestreams. In order to attract fans, the streamers would talk all kinds of shit in an endless river. You Xi was present everyday, and his lower limit had long been pulled down.

He folded his arms and leaned lazily on the bed, turning to a cancer of escape games.

You Xi’s thin lips opened lightly: “Then please tell my fans – I’ll start selling meat in ten minutes.” [4]

One stone caused thousand of waves, and the entire escape game livestream platform was in an uproar. You Xi didn’t know what kind of storm he had incited.

On the livestream platform, a headline suddenly appeared on the homepage–

#Ten Minute Countdown! The S-Level boss is fierce and dedicated, demonstrating the true nature of a man!!!#

There was an image of You Xi’s enchanting face. He was wearing pajamas and squinting his eyes carelessly, full of indescribable fury.

Seeing that news, the crowd screamed and rushed to You Xi’s broadcast room while shouting “I can do it, I can.” Some people sneered on the surface, but they were actually dismissing their body’s integrity and insincerely entered You Xi’s pit.

Everyone was looking forward to it. During the countdown, in order to bring forth a mysterious atmosphere, the system administrator only provided a cold string of numbers. Countless enthusiastic fans squatting in the pit waiting for the prosperous beauty to broadcast had already set off their rockets. [5]

The atmosphere in the live studio was fierce.

“I look at female ghosts and corpses everyday, my eyes are going to turn blind!” She rubbed her eyes and commented. “I’ll wash my eyes!”

“This broken game always scared me too much to sleep. Today I’ve finally found some warmth and healed. I can finally show my aunt my smiling face again~” Jiejie could live another five hundred years as she typed and sent out 5000 game coins to the streamer. [6]

“As soon as I saw the title, I rushed over wearing the moon and stars! [7] This is the first time I’ve met such a fresh and refined angelic streamer who allows us to enjoy!”

“I have a hunch that the era of 003’s screen domination is finally over. I’m crying with joy!” Zhuang Bi Zhe Kan Xiao Niao said. [8] “Who else hates 003 as much as I do? Stand up and be proud with me!”

“That fake 003’s evil deeds are too numerous. Now 004 is born and is finally fighting against him. This old man is very relieved. Giving rockets to the streamer, begging streamer to buy good equipment and help us fight 003 in the future. Letting out a sigh of anger!” Dadao 003 was so excited his hands were shaking. [9] He was originally rushing to the streamer’s beauty, but he was infected by the attention-seeker’s announcement, and his attention was drawn off track. But once he commented, there were countless little tails wagging excitedly behind him.

“+1”

“+2”

……

“+10086”

“Ding– Zhuang Bi Zhe Kan Xiao Niao and Dadao 003 were kicked out of the room by the administrator. Please pay attention to your words and behavior, and don’t attack other bosses in the streaming room to avoid unnecessary conflict.”

The system administrator wiped his sweat. Originally, it was just an uncle who spent money. He usually didn’t care about that kind of thing, but he just received a call from above. 003’s number one brother, Liu Yu, had complained.

“Quickly clean up the room.” Liu Yu said. “Our boss is going to watch 004’s livestream. What are you doing? Boss just paid 1 million to 004 yesterday, but today, you’re just letting mobs slander him here?”

The system administrator deleted all comments on 003 using the strength of the wind and clouds.

The camera turned and the 10 minute countdown ended. You Xi’s hair was slightly damp. Water droplets lingered on his white and flawless face, and his delicate jawline was outlined in an arc of incomparable purity, causing fans to scream one after another.

What kind of fairy face is this.

A fan licked the screen, and the next comment was a message to the streaming monkey. [10]

The system administrator had just breathed a sigh of relief when a complaint call came again: “What monkey? Delete those comments. Our boss was finally interested in watching the livestream, but was disturbed by this group of scum who like swiping the screen.”

On the other side, Liu Yu returned to Qin Yuandai’s office after calling to complain. Beside the french windows, Qin Yuandai looked arrogant in a suit and leather shoes, the corners of his lips pulled into a mocking sneer.

“Yesterday, I saw that he didn’t panic at the female ghost’s transformation. I thought he was a budding talent.” Qin Yuandai said with extreme disdain. “Unexpectedly, today he’s so poor that he would try to attain money with this kind of method.”

“These days, can anyone really be an S-level player if they have a nose on their face?”

“Liu Yu, give him another 4 million, then arrange the next game with him.” Qin Yuandai’s face was half-obscured, and there was an indescribable smile like a bird of prey. “In only ten seconds, I’ll personally let him experience what it feels like to die without a burial!

Liu Yu sighed slightly. Maybe with time, 004 could have grown into a towering tree, but he unfortunately ran into Qin Yuandai.

Liu Yu logged into Qin Yuandai’s side account and spent a lot of money, successfully claiming the opportunity to play the next game with the streamer and ranking first on 004’s fan list. His reward amount far exceeded second place by over 4 million.

Seeing the nickname ‘003 Wansui’ firmly dominate 004’s room, Liu Yu fell into deep thought.

It looks like he’s there to sabotage the room.
