Chapter 491: The Terminally Ill Heiress on Death Game Island (7)
Fang Qing concealed it well, but Qiann Yan still caught a fleeting glimpse of blame in the other’s eyes.
Even if she hadn’t seen it, she could sense Fang Qing’s thoughts through memory.
The original owner did not hold much hatred for Fang Qing.
The original owner was a very perceptive person. From the first day she was trapped in this game, she understood that these friends around her, even her gentle and affectionate fiancé, might betray her someday.
During the game, she repeatedly told these people that she hoped whoever got out in the future would inform her parents, urging them to live well and not grieve.
Fang Qing’s end was actually not too good.
Among the four of them, only Jing XiYuaan made it out alive; the others all died here.
As for the blame Fang Qing held for being dragged into this creepy game while accompanying the original owner on a sea trip, Qiann Yan did not agree with such reasoning.
It was clearly Fang Qing who suggested accompanying the original owner for distraction, and even the idea of a sea trip was her suggestion.
Fang Qing didn’t truly intend to accompany the original owner; she just wanted an opportunity to see more of Jing XiYuaan.
And to satisfy her fragile and sensitive mind; knowing the original owner had a terminal illness, she couldn’t help but feel some delight.
Perhaps upon seeing that the original owner would soon die, never being able to be with Jing XiYuaan, she felt a sense of joy.
Fang Qing was somewhat conflicted, finding her own thoughts shameful, so during this period, she really treated the original owner well.
The group followed the game’s manual guidance to the registry to collect their room keys.
The technology on this island is highly advanced, wholly controlled by system programs, and none of the players have seen a single island official.
At the registry, they could get their keys simply by scanning their faces and number plates.
All four of them were newcomers to the island today, so their living quarters were like school dormitories — not large, but fortunately one room per person. Inside were a bed, a table, a mirror, and a bathroom.
Beyond that, there was nothing else.
Food required a meal card, and both cold and hot water needed a water card.
The four used their identities to obtain meal and water cards before returning to their rooms.
Now, they all gathered in Jing XiYuaan’s room, intending to discuss what to do next.
"The first seven days will be fine, but after that, we will all be in danger," said Lu Shanyang. "Starting at two-star difficulty, there are five cages. We only have four people. One participates in the game, while the other three can only monitor three of the cages, leaving two cages unchecked. Relying on the system to randomly select players is unreliable."
"Should we team up with other players from the same batch? For a five-star difficulty, there are eleven cages, and a team of twelve is just right," Fang Qing suggested. "At least it’s better than randomly grouping with strangers. During our interactions, we could figure out teammates’ personalities and decide whether to trust or distrust them at critical moments."
Jing XiYuaan shook his head: "I don’t think it’s necessary to form teams arbitrarily. They are strangers; who knows if someone will deliberately give false information. We four can trust each other, but not necessarily others."
"Why not observe first? Teaming up is still necessary; we can find some who seem nice," Qiann Yan interjected. "Fang Qing has a point; it’s better than randomly selected players."
Lu Shanyang: "I agree, and fortunately, we have a seven-day beginner’s period, so let’s use it to observe."
