Chapter 61 Yes, this is a food game.
"You are dead..."
"game over……"
Seeing those familiar, blood-red characters appear on the black screen, Jian Yuqing... Jian Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief!
She took off her gaming helmet and touched her still-pounding heart.
Although she had left the game, the despair she had accumulated in the game seemed to linger in her body.
It's a kind of despair where you know you're falling, but you're powerless to control it, and can only watch yourself head towards destruction step by step—
At first, Jian Yuqing was unaware of the sinister intentions behind the game: she simply followed the game's plot step by step, staying in her room in the tenement building and receiving Wang's daily feedings at fixed times.
Looking back now, I realize that she had already started acting strangely at that point.
After all, at first, she just wanted to try out the food in the game and then quit.
As a result, meal after meal... until she was forced to quit the game due to death, Jian Yuqing's mind was filled with only the thought, "Why isn't the next meal here yet?"
Jian Yuqing still remembers that at that time, her stomach, blood, and even every cell in her body were clamoring for food.
That terrifying desire that seemed to seep from the very marrow of her bones, that surging thirst, even now, still sends chills down Jian Yuqing's spine when she thinks about it.
—She said, "Why would the woman in red suddenly be making a food game?"
Where can you find a food-themed game like this?!
This is clearly a horror game disguised as a food game!
Even her final "death" was filled with a chilling horror—
She couldn't even stand waiting for Aunt Wang to come to her door on time. When she was starving in the middle of the night, she secretly pried open Aunt Wang's door, intending to go in and steal food.
Then, she was beaten to death as a thief.
Although this ending... sounds a bit outrageous, even a bit funny, only Jian Yuqing herself knows how helpless and desperate she felt when she couldn't control her desires.
Jian Yuqing took a few deep breaths, as if she could finally expel the lingering itch (from her craving for food) in her body.
She turned on her personal terminal, ready to write a positive review of her gaming experience, to praise the woman in red, and to refute the trolls who had previously stirred up trouble.
Unexpectedly, upon opening the "Reunion" game webpage, I was greeted by a deluge of positive reviews.
The direction of these positive reviews seems a bit off—
"Damn, guys, everyone come play this game! It's so delicious! All the food in it is this! [thumbs up][thumbs up][thumbs up]"
"Red Dress is amazing! Even in a food game, she makes it taste better than other food games! Braised pork balls, fresh meat wontons... slurp!"
"I won't go into detail about how delicious and visually appealing the food in the game is, but I want to talk about the environment and setting! The setting for the red-clad character is really atmospheric, especially the old-fashioned TV she has in her room! And it's even functional! I'm not exaggerating, I spent half an hour just studying that TV in the game!"
……
There were many similar comments, but without exception they all revolved around "food" and "game scenes." Jian Yuqing searched for a long time but couldn't find any reviews related to "horror games."
Jian Yuqing frowned, realizing that things were not so simple—
Could this be... just like before with the "囍" (double happiness) event, where allies hired online trolls to stir things up again?!
She angrily clicked on the accounts that left those comments, wanting to find evidence of paid trolls.
Surprisingly, all the accounts that left comments had a playtime of over 3 hours for "Reunion".
...Huh, 3 hours?
Isn't that the same as her game time?
Jian Yuqing looked at the comments and then at the game time, and suddenly had a guess.
She tentatively left a coded message in one of the reviews: "The food was really delicious, but towards the end it felt like there wasn't enough to eat..."
Soon, that account replied to her: "That's right! I'm so excited I could eat ten meals a day! So this game is so delicious, of course we have to promote it and let more people enjoy it!"
Okay, confirmed!
Upon seeing this reply, Jian Yuqing finally understood what these people were doing.
So, she quickly joined this united and loving family.
"That's right, this is a food game!"
