I Play the Horror World as a Simulation Game

The car bumped along the pothole-ridden road, and the driver and the young man inside kept a close eye on Qin Yushi's movements.

To their surprise, Qin Yushi was even more naive than they had expected. She listened to music and scrolled through short videos on her phone, completely engrossed and oblivious to the oddities around her.

The two exchanged glances, finding it somewhat amusing.

Their caution seemed unnecessary.

Eventually, the car drove into a desolate and remote development area, surrounded by unfinished buildings and devoid of people.

Qin Yushi looked up at the window and asked, "Are you getting off here?"

"Yeah, girl, thanks a lot."

The young man smiled, unbuckled his seatbelt, and in the next instant, lunged at Qin Yushi from the front seat, trying to cover her with a towel soaked in **.

The man with the parted hair moved swiftly and skillfully, pressing his body against Qin Yushi to prevent any chance of escape as he covered her with the towel.

At the same time, the driver locked all the car doors.

Bang!

However, with a dull thud, the man with the parted hair was suddenly flung back to the front seat, his back slamming hard against the windshield, which instantly cracked.

The bald man was startled, and before he could react, a rope looped around his neck with terrifying strength, cutting into his flesh.

His eyes bulged, his tongue protruded from his mouth, and no matter how desperately he struggled, it was all in vain.

Just as he was about to pass out from suffocation, the man with the parted hair grabbed a knife and lunged at Qin Yushi.

In a flash, Qin Yushi freed one hand, accurately grasped the man's wrist, and with terrifying strength, dislocated his wrist joint, causing the knife to fall onto the handbrake.

Before the man with the parted hair could scream, a long leg swung over from the passenger seat and kicked him hard in the face.

He crashed into the windshield again, this time shattering it completely, and flew out of the car, rolling onto the ground from the hood.

In a desperate moment, the bald man pulled the seat adjustment lever, using the reclining seatback to free himself from the rope.

But before he could retaliate, Qin Yushi turned and elbowed him in the back of the head.

The bald man's head smashed through the glass, and he passed out.

The car returned to silence.

Soon, the car door opened, and Qin Yushi stepped out with her long legs.

In front of the car, the man with the parted hair groggily got up and stumbled back when he saw Qin Yushi approaching.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Wait..."

"Who sent you?" Qin Yushi asked calmly.

The man with the parted hair was bewildered, realizing that the Qin Yushi before him was a completely different person from a few minutes ago, and that she had been playing along with them all along.

"We are..."

Before he could finish, Qin Yushi shook her head, "Forget it, I'll leave the questioning to them."

With that, the man with the parted hair was struck on the head and lost consciousness, collapsing to the ground.

...

A short while later, when they woke up, they found themselves tied up and thrown in the trunk, with no sign of Qin Yushi.

A jeep approached from a distance, and two men in black got out, wordlessly pulling the bald man and his companion into the vehicle. Under their terrified gazes, the car door closed, and they drove away.

Meanwhile, Qin Yushi, pulling a pink suitcase, hailed another taxi by the roadside.

Inside the house, Qin Nuo had just flushed the toilet and emerged from the bathroom. Before he could sit down, the doorbell rang.

He opened the door to find Qin Yushi standing there with her suitcase, having waited for some time.

Qin Nuo glanced at the time and asked, "Was there a lot of traffic?"

"A bit. I also got you some breakfast," Qin Yushi said, handing him a bag of steamed dumplings.

As they entered, Qin Nuo noticed a tear in her collar but didn't pay much attention.

"Sis, let me get you a glass of water first." Qin Nuo went to the water dispenser and poured a glass.

Qin Yushi took the water but set it aside, motioning for Qin Nuo to sit down, her expression serious. "Tell me, what's really going on?"

Qin Nuo chuckled, "I was just kidding. I missed you and wanted to see you."

Qin Yushi frowned slightly and said, "Where's the login device?"

"It's with me, sis. Why do you look so serious?" Qin Nuo asked.

Qin Yushi replied with a hint of exasperation, "It's because of you, brat. You never let me rest easy. No matter where I hide the login device, you always find it."

"What is it about this horror game that draws you in so much? Are you just looking for thrills?"

"Enough talk, hand over the login device. I'll keep it from now on."

Qin Yushi extended her hand, looking very assertive.

Qin Nuo leaned back and shook his head, saying, "You know why. Mom and Dad disappeared mysteriously, and they might have been sent to the Horror World."

At the mention of their parents, Qin Yushi sighed and said, "Xiao Nuo, you need to face reality. Even if Mom and Dad were sent to the Horror World, if they haven't returned by now, it's likely..."

"You're not a child anymore. You need to look forward. If Mom and Dad saw you like this, they'd be heartbroken."

The atmosphere grew slightly somber.

Qin Nuo remained silent.

After a moment, he suddenly looked up and asked, "Sis, do you remember what Mom and Dad's names are?"

Qin Yushi found it amusing, "Did the horror game mess with your head? Why are you asking such a question?"

"What are their names?" Qin Nuo repeated.

Qin Yushi rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Our father's name is Qin Yusheng, and our mother's name is Yan Xia. You haven't forgotten their names, have you?"

Qin Nuo's face was expressionless, but his pupils trembled slightly.

"You're right, I've forgotten their names."

Qin Nuo clenched the cup in his hand and continued, "Sis, when did you first meet me?"

Qin Yushi frowned, placing a hand on Qin Nuo's forehead, and asked, "Xiao Nuo, why are you asking such strange questions? Don't scare your sister."

"I'm your real sister. I've taken care of you since you were little. Why would you ask such a question?"

Qin Nuo put down the cup and rubbed his temples, his voice growing colder.

"Is that so? Then why do I have no memories of you from my childhood?"

Qin Yushi's face froze.

Qin Nuo's expression turned icy, his gaze chilling. "You're not my sister. You're just a stranger pretending to be her."

"Who are you really?"

"What is your purpose?"

Qin Nuo's sudden cold demeanor left Qin Yushi speechless. She opened her mouth, trying to say something.

Finally, she forced a bitter smile and said, "Xiao Nuo, did you see something in the Horror World?"

"Don't believe it, don't let it cloud your mind, you..."

Qin Nuo interrupted her, "I received a call in the Horror World."

"The man said his name was Qin Feng, and the woman called herself Shangguan Yan. They claimed to be my parents."

"They also said I don't have a sister and that I've always been an only child."
