Chapter 261: Online Dating Scam Record (Twenty-four)
Guo Guo: “…”
Things that sounded outrageous actually became reasonable because they were done by Zheng Wanqing.
She tried to reopen the chat with the scam customer service, and sure enough, the network signal was restored. A new message soon popped up on the chat interface:
[Hello, dear customer, I am customer service Xiao Wang, and it is my honor to serve you.]
Customer service Xiao Wang?
Somehow, Guo Guo felt that the other party's tone seemed to have changed compared to the previous attitude that was both indebted and helpless.
[Guo Guo: Are you done with the firefighting?]
Customer Service #1: Hello, this is Xiao Wang from Customer Service. I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. Could you please resend it?
Zhang You also noticed this. She frowned slightly and tapped the other party's account.
The other party also replied immediately: [Hello, I am customer service Xiao Wang, it is my honor to serve you. ]
Zhang You said bluntly: [Did you replace someone under your skin? ]
Customer Service #1: I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. Can you try again...?
Zhang You looked up: "Okay, it's definitely changed."
Guo Guo was worried: "If the subcutaneous tissue has really been replaced, can we still get any information from it?"
Zhang You: "If you hadn't changed to the previous one, were you confident you could get the information out?"
Guo Guo: “…”
That being said, it seems there isn't really much difference.
But Zhang You continued, "Replacing it with this new one will make it more convenient for us."
After that, she typed a line of words in the chat box:
【I want to continue to subscribe to the virtual lover service. 】
"Sister You!"
Guo Guo was startled and stopped him, "What are you going to do?"
Zhang You was very calm: "Anyway, I already have a trade buff on me. Whether I look for them again or not, I will most likely not be able to escape tonight."
Instead of waiting for death, it is better to take advantage of this.
Furthermore, she changed her tone to a more relaxed one. "Trading with them comes at a price. The price per person is only enough for one exchange. Even if I wanted to place another order, they wouldn't agree."
[Customer Service No. 1: Hello, after checking your balance, you are eligible to order again. We will process the service for you soon——]
Zhang You: “…”
Guo Guo: “…”
A bit of a miscalculation, but not a big deal.
Zhang You: "It's probably because of my status as a candidate."
After all, from the perspective of the copy, the student NPC can only be regarded as an ordinary "person", while the candidates have various superpowers and thicker health bars, so they have "value" to allow the fraud platform to cheat them a second time.
But Zhang You wasn't ready to commit suicide. She decisively stopped the customer service and said she just wanted to learn more about the service.
Guo Guo, who had never tried it before, couldn't help but feel curious: "Can [Virtual Lovers] really fulfill all wishes? What if I wish for Wanqing's recovery and the return of the True Heart Technique?"
Customer Service No. 1: Dear customer, virtual lovers also have feelings, please do not maliciously harm them.
Guo Guo: “…”
Guo Guo: "If I remember correctly, I just said it verbally, and didn't type it out to you, right?"
Customer Service No. 1: Dear customer, we will be with you from the moment you first make a transaction with our store. As long as you wake up the store through your phone, we will be as close as soul mates.
These words sounded so creepy that Guo Guo got goose bumps on the back of his neck.
The customer service representative continued, "The more transactions you make, the closer we become. Until..."
"Until what?" Guo Guo asked sensitively.
The customer service representative stopped explaining and returned to the original topic, mechanically repeating: [Dear customer, would you like to order the virtual lover service?]
Guo Guo sat down sullenly, but suddenly an idea struck him, and he jumped up from his chair: "Wait, if we don't order it ourselves, can we order it for others?"
At the same time, she pointed at Tang Xinjue, who was concentrating on eating in the corner of the room, and said, "Can I buy a service for my dear roommate? The money can be deducted from her own account!"
"Tang Xin Jue":?
She has already run to the corner to eat quietly, is that not enough?
Even the customer service seemed to have heard this request for the first time and was stunned for a few seconds before answering:
[Hello, please wait. We are searching for you... Sorry, we cannot find the relevant information of this student in the backend. Please choose between you and your two roommates to activate the service.]
"Can't we add it on the spot if there's no information?" Guo Guo tried to correct it: "Me and my three roommates."
[Sorry, the background shows that you only have two roommates.]
The customer service still refuted in a gentle voice:
【There are only three students in dormitory 404.】
“…”
Guo Guo wanted to continue reasoning with the other party, but Zhang You quickly pulled her back: "Be careful, the curfew has begun."
"?"
Guo Guo looked down and saw that the time had quietly slipped away from 7 o'clock for several minutes.
But why is there no curfew tonight?
Everything was strangely quiet. The previous cacophony of girls crying, mumbling, scratching at the door, and footsteps hadn't returned. She reached for the pendant, and her chest felt cold.
Zhang You also frowned deeply.
In the silence, Guo Guo whispered, "I suddenly remembered a ghost story I heard before: If you hear crying during a haunted place, it means your life is not in danger and you can pass . But if you hear laughter..."
Before she finished her words, a strange and clear laughter came from above their heads.
Before looking up, Zhang You and Guo Guo quickly retreated in tacit understanding, leaving the center of the ceiling where the sound came from.
When I looked up again, I saw two long columns of blood shooting down from the ceiling. The blood at the top solidified into two arcs on the snow-white wall paint, like a pair of smiling eyes.
Obviously, this curfew is completely different from last night.
The blood corroded huge cracks on the ceiling and the ground, quickly turning into black pus, and no longer showing the ability to continue attacking. However, several people did not let their guard down.
A silent thunder may bring great trouble. The quieter and more silent it is without any warning, the more dangerous it is.
Suddenly there was a light splashing sound, and Guo Guo, who was facing the door with his back, cried out in pain - a pool of blood had squeezed in through the gap of the tightly closed dormitory door, and a few drops of blood splashed onto Guo Guo's arm, immediately making a burning sound.
"Guoguo!" Zhang You immediately pulled her to the sink. However, as soon as he turned on the faucet, even thicker blood gushed out, filling the entire sink in an instant.
Without clean water, Zhang You could only take hemostatic agents and recovery medicine from the medical kit, and then use the skill card to turn water into water to clean the wound, finally stopping the burns that were spreading wildly on Guo Guo's body.
In just a few seconds, the wound had extended from the arm to the shoulder, just short of the carotid artery.
Guo Guo gritted his teeth and cast a purification spell, and the blood that was frantically trying to rush in from the doors, windows and walls was suppressed.
And for this silent night, everything seems to have just begun.
The next wave of changes occurred on the four-person bed. Guo Guo was the first to notice the problem. She noticed that the frost on Zheng Wanqing's body had become coated with a thin layer of dark red. She quickly lifted it up and saw a dense mass of eyeball-shaped tumors growing on the bed!
Physical attacks couldn't remove the tumors, but Zhang You quickly figured out how to use fire, successfully forcing them into the confines of the bed. Meanwhile, the flames startled a girl who had just climbed onto the balcony. "Oh my God!" she cried, and a pale face recoiled from the balcony railing in terror. Then, her head cracked along the neck, and she lost her balance and fell backward.
Although the head and body were separated, the body subconsciously rushed down to catch the head. With a scream, they both disappeared from the sight of several people.
Guo Guo and Zhang You:?
However, before falling from the building, the girl's last action was to throw two objects onto the balcony. Looking closer at the balcony window, one could see a square yellow paper bag and the other a small black bottle.
There was a pink heart drawn on the yellow paper package, with several cute stickers stuck next to it, as if trying to minimize the dangerousness of the item's appearance. The only thing missing was the words "Pick me up" printed on it.
but……
The two looked at each other speechlessly.
Anyone who's experienced the Headless Ghost dungeon couldn't fail to recognize what this yellow paper bag is. It's been responsible for the deaths of countless student NPCs—does drawing it cute mean they'll lose their memories?
