Having heard Han Dongâs conspiracy theory, Cass murmured, âSo, am I to understand that the clown himself knows some of the rules of the âWorld of
âJust about,â he said after a moment. âThatâs all I have to say.â
Han Dong stepped back.
Next, it was up to Cass to formulate the next step.
Han Dong wouldnât devise all the plans himself, analyzing every situation on his own.
He knew well the limitations of oneâs perspective.
His teammates were not lacking in their mental abilities.
Koslin, who was like a machinery craftsman, was also like Han Dong in essence, an avid researcher, with a keen and detailed outlook on matters.
During the time when clues were being uploaded and Han Dong was proposing his conspiracy theory, little Koslin also remained silent, seemingly immersed in finding the optimal solution.
Cass stepped forward.
Staring at seemingly chaotic interface of evidence made him uncertainâŠThey had three possible paths at the moment.
Based on Han Dongâs suggestion, if the clown truly understood everything and controlled Derry Town to a certain extent, they had to spread out and explore, activating some side lines unrelated to the clown or beyond the clownâs reach.
To explore the facade of the large side line, suggested by the âSubmerged Diaryâ (high difficulty, high risk).
Decode the âold cameraâ and find the entrance to âVanishing Streetâ.
At this point, little Koslin suddenly spoke up: âAron, is the parasitic entity related to the clown?â
Han Dong immediately explained:
âAfter my contact with the parasitic entity Bella, I can fully confirm that it has absolutely nothing to do with the clown. Her purpose of secretly building a parasitic army in the school was just to fight against the clown.â
Koslin nodded, âThatâs enoughâŠour next step is to go directly to the âhidden sewerâ in the school.
The sewer area corresponds to the large side line, and nine times out of ten, it does not involve the clown and might even be beyond his control.
It is because of this that the âparasitic entityâ, which resists the clown, was established inside the sewer.â
âHmmâŠâ Han Dong nodded.
Seeing that the two âbrainsâ of the small team reach a consensus, Cass also believed that this choice was reasonable.
âSo itâs decided, we will set out tomorrow morningâŠEveryone, go and rest.â
Cass and the others had been partying with the clown for 24 hours, exhausting their physical and mental strength, and could fall asleep as soon as they hit the bed.
Koslin seemed unwilling to waste any time:
âCaptain, give me the cameraâŠl will try to figure it out, if we can discover the secret of the camera in advance, our follow-up tasks would be to pick up the main storyline and quickly locate the clownâs lair.â
âDonât stay up too late, we will have a big battle tomorrow.â
âThree hours of deep sleep is enough.â
Having gotten the camera, Koslin took out his toolbox and went to a separate bedroom to start his research.
His indulgence in research, disregarding sleep and food, was astonishingly similar to Han Dong.
Due to safety considerations.
The team all slept in the same room.
Sophia slept alone on the fluffy big bedâŠalthough she had secretly invited Cass to join her before going to bed, she was rejected.
Cassâs final choice was:
To sleep on the floor with Han Dong.
Due to limited space on the ground, the two menâs bodies were tightly close to each other.
Cass was really too tired and fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
However, Han Dong had slept enough these two days, and Cassâs strong body took up most of the space, causing the two to squeeze together.
Moreover, Han Dong faintly felt that there were a pair of jealous eyes on the bed, fixing their gaze entirely on him.
âPhewâŠfinally asleep.â
He waited for about ten minutes before Sophia on the bed fell soundly asleep.
Slowly lifting Cassâs arm, which inadvertently rested on his waist, Han Dong quietly left the bedroom.
From the beginning, Han Dong had no intention of sleepingâŠhe planned to wait until Cass and the others fell asleep, and then quietly visit Koslin, who was engrossed in studying the camera.
Pushing open the door to the first-floor bedroom.
Koslin, wearing safety goggles, had completely disassembled the camera and was carefully analyzing its internal structure. âAron, friend, are you not sleeping yet?â
Koslin looked over with a smiling face.
âNoâŠl just had ten hours of sleep last night, Iâm quite refreshed! Any discoveries about the camera?â
âNot yet, the internal structure has no problems, and there are no âformationsââŠl estimate the problem lies within the lens. Give me some more time to confirm.â
âMhm.â
Han Dong pulled out a stool, sat next to Koslin, and silently watched him inspect the camera.
In this way, a quiet half an hour passed.
Han Dong let out a sigh, started a conversation to break the silence.
âKoslin, is he still alive?â
âHmm?âŠWhat are you talking about, Aron?â
âI want to know, is Koslin still alive? Or did you simply execute him⊠Mr.
Pennywise.â
When Han Dong called out the name of the clown, the atmosphere in the room changed.
A subtle pink essence overflowed from the corner of the room.
Koslin stopped tinkering with the camera, but revealed an unusual smile:
âThatâs a bit disappointingâŠTo think youâd figure it out.
I spent 24 hours at the party, carefully studying the behaviours and speech patterns of this dwarf.
It seems that you have some ways to see through my disguise?â
While speaking, Koslinâs lips turned completely red, and a dangerous aura began to surround him.
âHan Dong! Retreat quickly⊠We are no match for it now.â
Chen Li sensed the danger and warned Han Dong in his mind.
However, Han Dong had no intention of running away or fighting, just sitting there quietly.
âMr. Clown, you seem very interested in the situation underground and even infiltrated our team in an elaborate disguiseâŠthen you might also be unable to easily enter below or maybe thereâs something that interests you in the sewer?
How about we make a deal?â
âOhâŠwhat deal?â For a moment, the clown showed a look of interest. âShall we go out for a walk? We can discuss it while walking.â
âSure!â
And so, Han Dong led the clown out of the room.
The system clearly stated, the fight against the clown was all but certain to be
lethal before the ultimate intelligence goal was reached.
However, Han Dong was fully aware that the clown itself had no fighting desire.
Having waited so long for interesting players to arrive, he wouldnât randomly kill such interesting outsiders.
Just going out for a walk, as long as it was a normal conversation, there shouldnât be any problem.
Before leaving, Han Dong intentionally wore the âSmile Badgeâ he got from the
Hilarious Gift Box on his chest, appearing completely natural.
All emotions were squashed deep within him..
