Chapter 2
Ch2
In a room a young man was trying hard to open a door and a small blue ball was flying over his head like a headless fly.
"Why can't i get out"
[You can't! you don't have enough survival energy to go outside, you'll be crush to death when you go!]
"But i want to go outside!"
[No! The gravity outside isn't the same with earth it's more powerful you won't be able to bear it!]
"But i want to pee!!" Yan Xiuying's eyes formed tears, he never suffered this kind of grievance before, why won't it let me pee
[.....] what a problematic host
After a while Yan Xiuying walked out satisfied from the bathroom
System : [you haven't even earned survival points you already have loans]
Yan Xiuying clapped his hands and dusted off the non-existent dust off his hands : "doesnt matter aren't there game rooms? I can go to the game rooms and earn survival points! I'm diligent!!"
System suddenly regained it's hope for this host : [that's good] fortunately, fortunately it's host isn't lazy and still looks very excited to go to the game rooms
[Are you ready?]
"Yep" Yan Xiuying's eyes brightened seemingly very excited, Yan Xiuying has never been afraid of anything since he was a child he was very sickly, it's his first time to have such healthy body so of course he's very excited.
The view before Yan Xiuying flashed and suddenly turned into a airplane hallway, it was very noisy coupled with the attendant's announcement and the people's noisy bags
Yan Xiuying looked around curiously, suddenly someone bumped into him, and that person seems to be very grumpy
"Damn it! Can't you see I'm walking by!" The man walked past after saying that and still mumbling some words, for sure it's something bad
Yan Xiuying pursed his lips
"Hey, it's okay, it's inevitable to encounter such people, don't mind him" the old lady who was sitting on her row sit shook her head and chuckled, she eyed Yan Xiuying her eyes gentle "old man this young man is beautiful, isn't he suitable to be yuan'er's wife? Hm" the old lady nudged her old husband and laughed joyfully
Yan Xiuying's eye twitched damn people nowadays are very open minded what wife, even if I'm Gay I'll be the top!he was never good at communicating with people (because he's so straightforward) so He smiled awkwardly at the old couple and sat on his row seat
A few teenagers stood up and started to become noisy, attracting most of passengers attention, an attendant went and appeased them, it seems the don't like to be seated on the last row so the attendant could only transfer them to the first Row, after a while the farce quietened down.
Yan Xiuying's seat was on the Row 5 and he sat two seats away from the window and close to the hallway, he looked around trying to see where that blue ball system has gone
[I'm in your mind!! Hello hello hehe]
Yan Xiuying was startled when it suddenly spoke in his mind, making the attendant who was about to pass by look at himself with concern and asked if he was okay, he could only shake his head in embarrassment and said he was okay
Yan Xiuying mumbled angrily "can you atleast give a signal before talking, you scared me!"
[Okay okay, you can talk to me in your consciousness, you don't have to use your mouth you'll look weird to the plot characters]
"oh okay" Yan Xiuying sized up his surrounding overall the passengers are only a few dozens and there are only three attendees, one male, two female
Aside from the pair of old couple and the one Yan Xiuying bumped into there are eight more passengers, if Yan Xiuying is counted there would be a total of 15 passengers. There are 3 teenagers they must be friends going on vacation, another pair old couple with them now plus the pair of old couple who spoke to Yan Xiuying before, there are about 4 elders in this flight, there's a middle aged man who seems to be a business man and a woman with thick furs on her neck beside that woman is 2 ladies must be her maids, she must be Singaporean, some wealthy people.
There was a mother and a child in this flight they are seating on the same row as Yan Xiuying but they're on the other side, the little girl noticed Yan Xiuying's Stare she waved her hand, Yan Xiuying smiled and waved back to her, and lastly the man who bumped onto Yan Xiuying, He's still talking on the phone heatedly he seems to have a very much incurable disease which is anger issue.
The little girl changed seat and got closer to Yan Xiuying and said in fluent english "hi mister!"
Yan Xiuying: "hello little girl, what's your name? where's your mother?"
Lilly : " my name's Lilly, I'm six years old this year, mommy went to the bathroom, mister what's your name? you look pretty, are you really not a girl?" she giggled in the last sentence
Yan Xiuying laughed : "the name is Yan Xiuying, brother is a boy okay?"
Lilly : "okay~ but Your name is hard to pronounce, mister are you chinese?"
Yan Xiuying: "yes"
Lilly : "Mister is it....."
After a dozen questions with the little girl, finally the mother came and the child shut up, Yan Xiuying shook his head and mused.
All of the passengers are already seated and the two female attendees started to demonstrate the emergency measurements.
Yan Xiuying looked at his front and saw a magazine, he took the magazine and read it, it turns out this airplane is called Cebu Pacific, Yan Xiuying mumbled: "Philippines..."
Suddenly a foreign passenger came hurriedly, it seems he was late fortunately he caught up, he stopped in front pf Yan Xiuying's seat and started to organize his things in the top compartment, it seems he felt Yan Xiuying's gaze, he smiled politely at him and sat down, there are 13 passengers now
"Ding- Mabuhay! This is the Cebu Pacific Airline! Good evening passengers! we are pleased to announce that we will be taking off from Manila to Singapore by exactly 7 o'clock, this flight will take about 4 hours to land, and that because of this sudden flight in this stormy weather, we are very sorry to say that the previous flight was full and couldn't accommodate anymore passengers, once again we are very sorry, and if any of you feel uncomfortable just call the attendees on stand by, Good Evening and Mabuhay! Ding- "
Stormy weather?
Yan Xiuying looked outside the window, coincidentally a thunder went by the moment he looked outside, this how come people take flights in this kind of weather, after a while the plane took off.
Suddenly the intellectual watch buzzed, Yan Xiuying looked down and tapped the watch it projected some words in the air, Yan Xiuying looked around "system can anyone see this or just me"
[No one can see it, only you, it has privacy measurements]
"Ok, good"
Yan Xiuying read through the words
[Novice Room - SILENT DEATH
You are a detective intern from Singapore Police Criminal Investigation Department who went to Manila to visit relatives, now you are going back to Singapore to Continue your internship. Unfortunately the the flight 0463 is full and couldn't accommodate anymore passengers, fortunately the Cebu Pacific Airline was up.]
[It was a stormy weather and the passengers and attendees were few, just a while after the take off a sudden death occured, a doctor was on flight and announced the person dead and the doctor also discovered that the body showed signs of suffocation and there were some hand marks on the neck. it caused quite a lot of stir.]
[Room Task : find the murderer in 4 hours before the aircraft lands
Friendly reminder : if the player wouldn't be able to complete the task there would be a very bad consequences, good luck~]
Silent death...
Yan Xiuying stood up from his seat and looked around his surroundings while walking through the aisle, going to the bathroom, Yan Xiuying reached the bathroom and locked the door.
He started to organize his thoughts, in this flight there are 6 Seats in a Row divided into three there is an aisle. there are 3 teenagers on the right 1st Row, on the left 4th Row is the Foreigner, right 5th Row is Lilly and her mother, on left 5th row is Yan Xiuying, left 6th Row is the Old couple, right 8th Row is another old Couple, right 10th Row is the man who was on phone, right 13th Row is the well-endowed woman and her 2 maids, and lastly on the Right 14th Row is the business man.
There are a total of 19 Rows and aside from the mention Rows the rest are empty
Yan Xiuying eyes brightened and pondered as he looked at his reflection on the mirror : "who could be the likely to be murdered and the murderer..."
Yan Xiuying since he was a child liked this kind of mystery problem solving the most, if it weren't for his body being sickly and his parents concern for him, he really wish to become a detective, but it seems he's out of luck in his lifetime, he could only read some related novels and books, while he's mostly idle.
Now that he's given a chance to show his skills in investigation and observation makes his blood boil in excitement, those books and novels he read are really useful this time, Yan Xiuying laughed, and he washed his hands and went out of the bathroom compartment, only to bump into one of the maid of the wealthy woman.
Yan Xiuying observed the lady she seems nervous and timid, as she went into the female bathroom, the compartment lock turned red indicating it is lpcked from the inside.
Yan Xiuying paused for a while and then proceeded to walk to his seat, as he passed by the 13th Row he saw the woman getting angry and pinching the maid from time to time, he only glanced for a while, he didn't stop walking. He reached his seat
Before sitting down, subconsciously Yan Xiuying glanced at the 1st Row there were two young men and 1 woman they are the 3 teenagers, there seems to be an argument between the boys and the girl was appeasing them. Yan Xiuying finally sat down.
after a while the whole place become a little bit dark as the passengers turned off the lights above their seat to have a nap, from time to time an attendant will walk by to check the passengers.
There was only the light above Yan Xiuying's seat that was on the rest are off it seems like they were tired and had a rest. Yan Xiuying looked outside the window, his lips curved slightly, it was the calm before the storm. He closed his window and turned off the light. He leaned on his seat and and closed his eyes.
He didn't sleep but instead with eyes closed his other sense magnified, he observed the noises at the same time pondering who would likely be muredered, the introduction didn't say it was a male or female. But for some reason Yan Xiuying felt like the who'll get murdered would be a female, it could be the little kid, the mother, the teen at the front, the old ladies, the wealthy woman and her maids, even the female attendees are possible.
But if there's a murder there should be a motive, suddenly the aircraft shook
"Ding- Good evening passengers, it seems that our aircraft is suffering from turbulence, stay put on your seat and don't stand up, please ensure your safety, the turbulence will subside in a while thank you. Ding-"
Without opening his eyes Yan Xiuying observed the noise aside from the constant prayer of the elderly there was a thud, an object fell it was vague it must be far from his seat. Yan Xiuying opened his eyes. He looked back from his on the aisle, he saw the business man taking a what seems to be a pill bottle on the ground.
Yan Xiuying sighed and looked in front of him then glanced at the kid on the other side, she being hugged by her mother, just then a flashback came to him.
"Mommy, daddy" little Yan Xiuying was hugging his mother's arms while his mother hugged him tightly, the car was shaking by some impact, it was also a stormy weather, the car was tampered the brake won't work, on the front seat is father Yan and the chauffeur is driving the car.
Mother Yan kept whispering nice words to Little Yan Xiuying. : "baby it's okay, we'll be fine, don't be sacared mommy is here okay, don't be scared" she caressed Little Yan Xiuying's hair her hand was trembling
Little Yan Xiuying was scared he felt his mother was also scared they hugged each other, suddenly there was a loud honk of a large truck, little Yan Xiuying turned to the side and saw a huge truck driving very fast to their car, his innocent eyes were ignorant and doesn't seem to know the danger.
There was vague shout from his mom and dad : " Xiao Ying!!"
Mother Yan quickly change position with little Yan Xiuying taking all the impact and protecting little Yan Xiuying in her imbrace, Father Yan's eyes was full of despair. After a while a vague voice kept waking him up.
"Miste.. mister, mister! Are you okay?"
Yan Xiuying snapped out of his trance and looked at the person who woke him up, it was the female attendant.
He shook off his thought and nodded "yeah, yes I'm okay, thank you" he gave a slight smile and then leaned on his seat and closed his eyes to rest for a while. The attendants walked away from his seat and started to walk through the aisle to check the other passengers.
Just then a shrill scream envelope the surrounding, everyone instantly woke up and looked at the source of sound, an attendant ran to the person who shouted, only to back away in fright, the business man also stood up and backed away.
The attendant immediately started to shout : "everyone! Is there any of you who is a medical practitioner!?"
The foreigner that was sitting in front of Yan Xiuying stood up and went to the attendant and showed his ID, the other attendees also came and started appeasing the other passengers.
"Sit down guys, sit down, this will be solved by the management team, don't worry there is a doctor here it should be fine, sit down please" the attendant's voice was calm but her hands were shaking.
But nonetheless it calmed the passengers they didn't stand up, they only looked at the back curiously as the chatted to themselves,
"Mommy what's going on?" Lilly looked at her mother
"No nothing baby, just close your eyes and rest okay? We'll land soon" the mother said affectionately and coaxed the child to sleep.
Yan Xiuying glanced at them for a while then stood up from his seat and walked to the crime scene.
