I Have A Dual World Seal - Chapter 24

Chapter 24 Murder Mystery and A Quick rescue

She laughed.

Su Mengmeng didn’t think that Tong Muxuan had ruined his image. She thought he was just being funny.

Seeing that Tong Muxuan and Su Mengmeng were getting along well, Lu Zheng started to let his thoughts wander.

This was different from the online novels and memes on the internet. Shouldn’t there be all kinds of criticism and contempt?

The woman wanted the man to have a car, a house, and an annual salary of one million yuan. The man wanted the woman to be virtuous, young, and beautiful.

Then, they parted on bad terms. The man and woman dissed each other and posted on the internet, entertaining the netizens.

And now, he’d succeeded in one try?

Boring…

There were no twists and turns at all, so how was the author supposed to continue the story?

Tong Muxuan and Su Mengmeng’s conversation came to an end. Only then did he realize that Lu Zheng and Luo Yun had been left out.

“Lu Zheng, do you have a girlfriend?”

“No!” Lu Zheng shook his head. “After seeing his performance, I realized that I’m still far from qualified to have a girlfriend.”

“Hehe!” Su Mengmeng couldn’t help but laugh. “Yunyun doesn’t have a boyfriend either. Do you want to try?”.

“Lu Zheng, where are you from?” Luo Yun immediately asked in a serious tone.

“Qin province.”

Luo Yun feigned a sigh. “What a pity. My parents won’t let me date a non-local.”

Lu Zheng nodded in understanding. “I understand, if it were me, I wouldn’t either!”

And then the conversation was over.

Luo Yun had rejected him casually.

The few of them knew this in their hearts, so they no longer mentioned it.

Lu Zheng smacked his forehead. She didn’t even give him a chance to be humiliated.

He couldn’t just flip out for no reason and say things like “don’t insult me because I’m poor,” and then say that he didn’t care about her money

Did he think he was writing a novel?!

“What’s the plan for the afternoon?” Su Mengmeng smiled and held Luo Yun’s arm. “We don’t have any other plans today.”

Since the first step of the blind date was a success, of course they had no other plans. If she didn’t like him, she would definitely have something to do in the afternoon.

“How about a game of murder mystery?” Tong Muxuan immediately said, “there are a few places on the next floor. Some of the reviews are quite good.”

Playing a game was a very natural way to bond. Of course, Tong Muxuan had thought about it.

Murder mystery was a game that had become popular in the last one or two years. It started as a game of werewolf, but it had evolved into something more.

Unique scenarios, extensive scripts, realistic equipment, and an experienced host narrating. It was a proper immersive experience. One could experience a different life for four to five hours.

The last sentence was a little exaggerated, but it also showed how good the experience was. Haicheng was a big city in China. Of course, there were more than a dozen places that offer a highly-rated game of murder mystery in the city.

“Alright! Let’s go!” Su Mengmeng clapped her hands and smiled. She was obviously also a fan.

The star of the day was Su Mengmeng, so Luo Yun and Lu Zheng had no objections.

They chose a place with good reviews and went in.

“Hello, do you have an appointment? What kind of story would you like?” The boss asked eagerly.

“We just looked it up online, we want a horror story!” Su Mengmeng’s eyes lit up.

“It’s The Cry in Apartment No.5.’ ” The boss immediately responded.

“Yes. Do we have enough people?” Su Mengmeng asked.

“Yes, they are waiting over there.”

They followed the boss’s gaze and saw two women sitting on the sofa in the waiting room, looking at them. “Wow, a beauty!” Su Mengmeng exclaimed in a low voice.

The two women had good figures. One of them had an ordinary appearance, while the other could indeed be called a beauty.

She was over 1.7 meters tall, had long hair that reached her shoulders, and her wheat-colored skin looked plump and healthy. Her shorts were not too short, but they revealed a pair of long legs.

“Hello!”

After greeting each other, the boss led them to the space.

“The Cry in Apartment No. 5” was set in modern times, so no one needed to change their clothes. They just listened to the host explain the background of the story and then read their own character scripts.

The story was about a woman being killed in this apartment many years ago, and then the sound of crying could be heard in the apartment at night all year round.

Of course, there were no ghosts in this world, so someone must be playing tricks.

They were all neighbors of this apartment, and they all knew the girl. They also knew some secrets about each other that others didn’t know about.

Therefore, they suspected each other, and were determined find the murderer.

The story began…

The host was very good, and everyone was very into the character.

Lu Zheng’s performance was ordinary, but Su Mengmeng fully demonstrated what it meant to be bad at games.

Luo Yun and Tong Muxuan tried hard, but they were not that good.

The two women were the ones who surprised the audience. The sinister and terrifying plot didn’t scare them at all. Instead, their calm reasoning made the host almost cry.

The clues haven’t even been released yet, how did you guys deduce that much?

Four hours later, the game ended.

“You’re so amazing! I feel like a professional detective is not as good as you two.” Su Mengmeng went up to talk to them as if they were close friends.

“We’re ok. The clues weren’t hidden too well. It wasn’t hard to see.”

“Awesome. Why don’t we add each other as friends? We can play together in the future.”

Noobs loved to be led by experts. Tong Muxuan’s performance was not bad, but he couldn’t stand the comparison. Fortunately, the two of them were women.

“No, we’re busy and don’t come often.” The beauty refused.

They left the building together and walked to the street.

Just as they were about to bid each other farewell, Lu Zheng saw the green light turn yellow. An old lady pushing an umbrella cart across the street couldn’t wait any longer and began to cross the road.

However, on the other side, a Ferrari was speeding toward her. It was obvious that it wanted to make it before the yellow light turned red.

“F* ck!”

Lu Zheng wasn’t the only one who saw it. Many others saw it as well.

Exclamations of shock were heard.

A shadow flashed past the corner of Lu Zheng’s eyes. The beauty from earlier had already charged forward.

However, Lu Zheng, who had been strengthened by the light of providence, could tell at a glance that she wouldn’t be able to catch up. She might even be knocked down along with the old lady.

“Squeak”

The Ferrari slammed on the brakes, but it was obviously too late.

“Whoosh!”

Lu Zheng crossed the road in one step and overtook the beauty in an instant. He pushed her back.

At the same time, he used the momentum and rushed to the old lady’s side before the Ferrari arrived. He held her in one hand, picked up the baby carriage in the other, and then ran to the opposite sidewalk.

to a stop at the corner of the road.
