"Please come in, the wonderful night is always short, let's not waste time on greetings."

The lady led the two men in. They passed by the front room. There were no guests here, and the waiters walking back and forth were delivering drinks and refreshing food to the back room.

After passing through another door, under the dim light, several girls of different shapes looked over. One of them said in surprise: "Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Jinru didn't know any of the others, but he had some impression of the one who spoke. He smiled softly and said: "Miss Mapel."

"So you already know each other, so I don't need to introduce you anymore. Ladies, what are you playing at?"

One of the beautiful ladies pouted: "Mapelle is in a bad mood and wants to find some friends to play games. We are all her playmates."

Zhou Jinru noticed that a thick book was spread out on the coffee table in front of several ladies. They seemed to be playing the running game they had played at Edward's private banquet.

Mapel pulled Zhou Jinru over and asked him to sit next to her, his enthusiasm was unbearable.

"Zhou, can you also play this kind of game?"

Zhou Jinru didn't have much contact with it, so he could only shake his head: "I should be familiar with the rules first."

Mapel didn't care at all: "You can just watch. As an audience, watching others go through a period of life in the game is also a good experience."

She crossed her right leg, and her black high-heeled shoes slipped halfway down inadvertently, revealing her snow-white and smooth ankles. The well-maintained lady's skin was as delicate as that of a teenage girl. Just looking at it made people's hearts flutter.

"...Elizabeth pulled out the sword. Unfortunately, after a long period of time, the material of the sword has been oxidized and rusted to the point that it cannot be used. It will break with the slightest touch."

A line of words was automatically written in the rule book. Zhou Jinru was surprised. Could this book also automatically generate a plot?

Mapel seemed to see his doubts: "Actually, it is not automatically generated. This rule book needs to be driven by the pure source stone. When we play the game, we must roll the dice according to the rules before it will generate the plot, but it is very difficult.

It’s difficult to control, because the character will always fall into desperate situations due to various accidents, and he will die if he is not careful.”

Is this a strange item?

Zhou Jinru couldn't help but think of the strange objects he had heard about in sitcoms, and he didn't know what happened to the middle-aged man in prison. He had no chance to find the painter with extraordinary painting skills.

"It's your turn, Mapel."

Mapel glanced at Zhou Jinru beside him, picked up the dice and threw it on the coffee table. The dice spun a few times and finally landed on four o'clock.

“Four o’clock is okay, not too bad.”

Zhou Jinru looked at the rule book. On the next line of the page, fancy fonts slowly emerged:

When Mapel was playing the violin, she accidentally dropped the music score off the balcony and hit a passing gentleman on the head. The gentleman kindly returned the music score to her.

"Zhou, do you want to join? If you also want to have a role, I think this gentleman would be a good entry point."

Zhou Jinru thought the plot looked familiar, and wondered if there would be a tiger-fighting warrior who would kick a mandarin duck's leg and jade ring step, so he refused and said, "I can take another look."

Edward, who was opposite him, took a sip from his wine glass and didn't rush to join in the act.

"What happens if the roll hits one?"

Mapel rolled her eyes at him: "That would not be a gentleman. It is very likely that my role will end here and I can only watch others play from the sidelines."

The girls played for a few more rounds, and two characters both failed, including the previous Elizabeth. She failed miserably when crossing the single-plank bridge, and the bridge broke. She failed again when she fell into the water, and there were undercurrents under the water.

surged, and finally drowned in the river.

Two major failures in a row can only be said to be bad luck. Zhou Jinru did not see the development of each point in the rule book. This rule book feels a bit like a secret operation. It is indeed reasonable to kill a character in this way, but it is not a good death.

Too light.

When the servant replaced the pure source stone in the book spine slot, the girls who were immersed in the game could finally relax. So far, they have a total of six characters, and only Mapel is still alive.

The newly divorced beautiful woman burst out laughing, patted Zhou Jinru on the shoulder, and laughed loudly: "Zhou, you are really my lucky star."

"Maybe."

Zhou Jinru just looked at the rule book and felt that something was wrong.

"Cough cough cough cough."

Mapel choked with laughter, coughed violently, and couldn't sit still. Zhou Jinru, who was nearest, hugged her, but his sanity did not fluctuate, which meant that this woman was a normal person.

With his left hand, he pushed the hanging plate on the coffee table not far away, then wrapped the fruit-cutting knife randomly placed on the plate with a handkerchief, and finally patted Mapel's back gently to calm her cough.

.

These were all small gestures, and fell into the eyes of Edward opposite. He nodded thoughtfully, then began to check the dangerous objects near the seat, and finally ordered the waiter to take them away.

Zhou Jinru was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the fourth prince was also a wonderful man, so he asked with a smile: "Edward, what should you do if you see a gloomy church at night?"

Edward replied without thinking: "Stay away from there and notify the city health department to check on the situation during the day."

The first half of the sentence is the standard answer. What’s going on with the second half?

Zhou Jinru couldn't laugh or cry, because Edward was using his identity to solve hidden dangers. It could be said that the two of them were the same type of people. They were not only cautious, but also used various means to eliminate hidden dangers in order to avoid accidents.

Edward was eating the fruit, leaning back in his chair and squinting his eyes: "Zhou, if you don't participate, how can you understand the fun of the game?"

Zhou Jinru nodded in agreement: "There is a saying in my hometown that the most boring thing in the world is to watch others play role-playing games. I agree with you."

After coughing, Mapel's face was rosy, and she leaned close to Zhou Jinru's side. A pair of peaks rubbed against his arm gently without knowing it: "I heard that you have your own industry in Longmen?"

She was referring to the false identity used by Zhou Jinru.

Zhou Jinru raised an eyebrow: "I am planning to develop in the film and television industry. Is Miss Mapel interested?"

"I can buy shares."

"Do you want to invest in my company or buy my company?"

If a big water pipe like her ended up in person, it would be easy to acquire a new start-up company.
