156: Chapter 156 Abandoned Unfinished Building 9

His shout was like a signal, and the other players seemed to realize something at this moment, running backward with expressions of terror.

Even that Tattooed Man, despite his disability, displayed immense explosive power at this moment and dashed swiftly into the distance.

Watching these players scatter like birds and beasts as if suddenly provoked by something, Luo Yuejian paused with the gear in her hand, a question mark popping up in her mind.

When she puts up a question mark, it doesn't mean she has a problem; it means everyone else does.

She was just picking up a gear, wanting to trigger a skill, so why were these guys acting as if she were about to unleash some biological weapon?

Luo Yuejian was truly dumbfounded.

Both sides stood there staring at each other for a few minutes; one side was nervous, the other was dumbfounded.

For a long while, nothing happened.

The air was momentarily filled with a very awkward atmosphere.

At this moment, the Luo Yuejians Exclusive Livestream Room was already cracking up:

"I can't, I can't, I'm literally laughing my ass off."

"Hahahahahahahaha!"

"When will this farce ever end?"

"Luo Yuejian raises her hand, other players: 'It's a trap! Run!'"

"Go home, child, go home, okay?"

"Hahaha, this is too funny, I feel like Luo Yuejian isn't going to move a gear, but to clear a minefield."

"Are they mistaking Luo Yuejian for that Psychopathic murderer?"

"Probably, otherwise they wouldn't have that reaction."

"Don't say it, really, don't say it, Luo Yuejian's indifferent expression and terrifying strength do make her look a bit unlike a normal person..."

"That's too tacky, with how outstanding Luo Yuejian is, how could the real Psychopathic murderer be so obvious?"

"Exactly, exactly, my Luo Yuejian doesn't like killing."

"I'm sweating buckets..."

"Hahaha, so why did Luo Yuejian go over there to move the gear? Is there something under that gear?"

"Probably not, I watched the recording playback, the ground was very flat before, I didn't see anything else."

"I actually have a guess, but I'm not sure, I guess it'll be revealed soon, let's wait and see."

...

At this moment, the Messy-Haired Man also realized that he seemed to have misunderstood Luo Yuejian.

He was a bit embarrassed, watching Luo Yuejian holding that sharp gear that had stopped rotating for some reason, thinking to himself that he couldn't be blamed for being suspicious...

Anyone would be suspicious seeing this action!

The Messy-Haired Man really didn't understand why Luo Yuejian wanted to lift that sharp gear that had stopped rotating; could it be she wanted to see if there was something underneath it?

How could that be?

The Messy-Haired Man sighed in his heart, struggled for a while, walked forward two steps, and asked, "What are you doing moving the gear? Do you need our help?"

Luo Yuejian: "Huh?"

What help would she need?

She actually wished the gear were heavier.

This bit of weight wasn't enough to trigger her passive skill.

Luo Yuejian was fretting about it and couldn't help but say, "It would be good if those two were together as well..."

What she meant was that if she could stack the weight of the other two gears, the three gears combined would definitely be enough for her to trigger her passive skill, a ten-minute minor strength boost.

But to the ears of the others, this sentence had a deeper meaning.

What did she mean by "It would be good if those two were together as well"?

All the players fell into deep thought; no one believed that Luo Yuejian's words were just a casual remark.

The pain in the Tattooed Man's arm attacked his brain in waves, and he started to get a headache as soon as he encountered something that required thinking.

At this moment, he couldn't help but say to Luo Yuejian, "Can you just say it straight if you found something? Which two together? Together for what? What's with you always talking in riddles..."

Hearing the Tattooed Man's words, a look of contemplation flashed in the eyes of the Gentle Man with Glasses.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he looked up abruptly, "You mean... I understand!"

Saying this, he immediately stood under one of the pillars, pulled out the gear embedded in the ground, lifted it to his chest, and simultaneously said to the Messy-Haired Man standing on the side, "Quick, you lift that gear up too!"

The Messy-Haired Man was clearly stunned, not yet having figured out why they needed to do this.

But the two players present who looked obviously smarter had both done so.

If it were only Luo Yuejian doing it, he might have been afraid to act.

After all, in his eyes, Luo Yuejian was very likely the Psychopathic murderer hidden among the players.

But now, that Gentle Man with Glasses also said so; they couldn't both be the Psychopathic murderer, right?

Thinking of this, the Messy-Haired Man didn't hesitate any longer, ran to the third pillar, and lifted the gear on that load-bearing pillar.

The gear wasn't heavy with the help of the slide rails, and the moment all three sharp gears were lifted...

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

A familiar sound rang out, and all the players were startled, their hearts trembling violently, their eyes widening in terror.

This sound was exactly the same as the sound when these sharp gears started rotating at high speed and forced a descent before!

The shock received at that time was too intense, so much so that now, upon hearing this sound again, several players, especially the Messy-Haired Man who was holding the gear and the Gentle Man with Glasses, let go as if holding a hot potato, reflexively and very awkwardly fleeing the scene quickly.

Even Luo Yuejian was startled, subconsciously and nimbly leaving the spot.

The sharp gears did move, but not with the sharpness of cutting everything while rotating at high speed as before.

This time, the gears only slowly moved upward without rotating.

This made the nervous players breathe a slight sigh of relief.

At least this wasn't another Saw movie.

Meanwhile, the door in the distance was also slowly opening.

The first player to notice the door opening was the Girl in Pink Jeans.

She was standing closest to the door, so naturally, she could hear any movement nearby immediately.

Running over here at the time was just an instinctive action; after all, the closer to the door, the easier it was to escape.

Now, suddenly feeling a breeze coming from the side, she glanced to the side and was the first to discover that the door had actually opened by itself.

The Girl in Pink Jeans couldn't help but exclaim, stepping back two steps, "The door... the door is open!"
