Why Did You Provoke Her? She Becomes the Ghost Queen After Death - chapter 17
The third day of the Courier Game.
Currently, the surviving players are Su Xiaoxiao, Liu Fei, and the woman who gave Su Xiaoxiao the dagger.
Right now, this woman is in trouble.
If she fails to resolve this crisis, only Su Xiaoxiao and Liu Fei will remain in this round of the game.
Zhou Qian looked at Ghost 603, whose terrifying appearance made her scalp tingle. She forced herself to suppress her fear and spoke in a humble yet firm tone:
“Hello, your item has not been opened, so how could anything be missing?”
The ghost with a face like it had been burned glared at the woman and spoke harshly: “I don’t care, something is missing! You thief! If you didn’t steal it, then prove your innocence with your life!”
The audience watched the Ghost speak, its attitude and tone uncannily similar to their own partners.
So unreasonable!
Zhou Qian could tell that this creature just wanted to eat her and was deliberately picking a fight!
“I don’t care”-this kind of unreasonable behavior was truly ghost-like.
But Zhou Qian was clearly no fool. The Courier Rules clearly state in Article 7 that if she hasn’t made a mistake, Death Clown will protect her.
Throughout the process, Zhou Qian recalled in her mind and confirmed she hadn’t made any mistakes!
She continued to speak, humble yet firm.
“Hello, I didn’t steal anything, and that’s the truth. After all, your package showed no signs of being opened before it reached your hands.”
“I’m a professional Courier. The item was in my possession the whole time-how could I not know if something was missing? It’s like selling watermelons; you ask me if they’re ripe, wouldn’t I know?”
This Ghost’s intelligence was clearly not high, and Zhou Qian’s words left it speechless, only able to glare angrily.
The Ghost started to throw a tantrum, “I don’t care, my item is missing! Fine, let me check if you have it on you!”
Zhou Qian knew that reasoning with a Ghost was pointless.
She took a step back, unwilling to continue arguing.
As long as she followed the Courier Rules and hadn’t made a mistake, the Ghosts couldn’t harm her in the slightest.
“Hello, your item has been delivered. If you have any issues, please contact my Captain, Death Clown. I have other deliveries to make. Thank you for your cooperation, goodbye.”
Zhou Qian spoke quickly and politely, then turned and left without worrying at all about whether the Ghost behind her would suddenly attack.
The Ghost saw Zhou Qian leaving and remembered what Death Clown had said. Its eyes flashed with a vicious light!
As long as it killed this human, Death Clown would help it advance from a Lesser Ghost to a Great Ghost.
The prospect of gaining power made it ignore the previously established rules.
“You wretched woman! I’m going to kill you!”
The Ghost crawled along the wall like a spider, its twisted limbs lunging at Zhou Qian!
: “Streamer, look behind you! The Ghost is coming to kill you!”
: “Holy crap! This old Ghost is so shameless, going for a sneak attack!”
: “The streamer isn’t panicking, why are you?”
: “Old viewers know the streamer will be fine in this situation. Only new viewers get all flustered.”
Zhou Qian noticed the Bullet Comments and knew the Ghost was attacking her from behind. Her face showed no panic; instead, the corner of her mouth curled into an unreadable smile.
The Ghost’s crimson eyes radiated murderous intent, its ghostly claws about to strike Zhou Qian.
“Die!”
The next second.
A scream rang out!
“Ah!!”
Zhou Qian was completely unharmed; instead, the Ghost suddenly collapsed to the ground, clutching its head and howling in pain!
In the game, as long as players follow the rules, Ghosts cannot harm them. Otherwise, they will experience Soul Devouring Pain!
Zhou Qian glanced at the Ghost on the ground, then left in a cool and confident manner.
Just an ordinary Lesser Ghost.
That’s it, and it wants to eat her?
Zhou Qian had only taken a few steps when she suddenly widened her eyes, her mouth slightly open, standing there in utter shock.
The viewers in her Live Stream Room were instantly confused. What happened to the streamer?
However, as the live stream’s smart capture switched the interface, in the next second, everyone felt their scalps tingle!
Right in front of Zhou Qian, the Elevator suddenly opened, and a familiar figure stepped out first.
Following behind that figure, a whole procession of powerful Ghosts filed out!
More than a dozen!
Each Ghost’s aura was several times stronger than the one behind Zhou Qian that wanted to eat her!
Yet these ferocious Ghosts, at this moment, were gathered around the little girl like caring uncles and kind aunties, fussing over her with concern.
It was just like a princess of some empire and her entourage.
This scene deeply shocked Zhou Qian’s young heart.
Is that little girl powerful, or what?
This is just too incredible!
Su Xiaoxiao also saw Zhou Qian as she walked out of the Elevator. For this big sister who had given her a dagger, Su Xiaoxiao felt a tiny bit of goodwill-about as much as an ant.
Then, Su Xiaoxiao saw the Ghost writhing and screaming on the ground behind Zhou Qian.
The Death Clown beside Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhou Qian and the screaming Ghost, a faint, ambiguous smile on its face, as if pondering something.
With more than a dozen Ghosts staring at her at once, Zhou Qian would be lying if she said she wasn’t nervous.
Her legs felt like they were about to shake uncontrollably.
After thinking for a moment, Zhou Qian forced a smile and greeted respectfully, “Xiaoxiao, Captain.”
Su Xiaoxiao noticed Zhou Qian’s discomfort. Remembering the dagger in her System space, Su Xiaoxiao turned to the Lesser Ghost beside her, who was about her size, and said, “Let’s go. Didn’t you say you had a surprise for me?”
When the Playful Ghost died, she was about the same age as Su Xiaoxiao, so she appeared as a little girl, looking like Su Xiaoxiao’s peer.
After seeing Su Xiaoxiao, she immediately clung to her.
Don’t be fooled by her young appearance-she’s actually decades old as a Ghost.
In her eyes, Su Xiaoxiao is a rising star, a future Ghost King. As long as she clings to this big shot, when Su Xiaoxiao dies and becomes the Ghost King, she can go and join her!
By then, wouldn’t it be easy for her, a Great Ghost, to break through to the next level?
So the Playful Ghost planned to give her favorite treasure to Su Xiaoxiao, saying it was a surprise for her.
“Okay, Xiaoxiao! I live in Room 606. You’ll definitely like it when you see it!”
The Playful Ghost tried to grab Su Xiaoxiao’s hand, but was scared back by warning glances from the Death Clown and the Staircase Skeleton Ghost.
Taking advantage of Su Xiaoxiao’s inattention, the Playful Ghost stuck her tongue out at the Death Clown and the Staircase Skeleton Ghost.
Just wait!
Soon, I’ll knock you two down from your places in Xiaoxiao’s heart!
Zhou Qian watched as Su Xiaoxiao led the Ghosts into Room 606, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Being stared at by more than a dozen Ghosts at once-what an experience.
Time to head back to her room!
After Zhou Qian returned to her room, she belatedly realized her back was drenched in cold sweat.
And after what just happened, the viewers in her Live Stream Room began searching for information about Su Xiaoxiao.
In these three days of Su Xiaoxiao’s live stream, her viewer count hadn’t dropped-instead, it had skyrocketed.
And now, after Su Xiaoxiao entered Room 606, she was left speechless by the so-called surprise…
