After listening to Li Kai's account, even without experiencing it firsthand, one could still imagine the terrifying scene: the subway shrouded in black fog, the endless carriages, and the ghost of Feng Wenxuan after his death... Li Kai actually managed to survive the ghost's attack—even Chen Mo found it somewhat unbelievable. Of course, there was even more crucial information: the two special characters Li Kai mentioned—the little girl and the woman. When Feng Wenxuan was killed by the ghost, Chen Mo clearly remembered seeing a woman's face emerging from his open mouth... This female ghost was the source of the supernatural force targeting the participants! And what connection did it have to the cursed game? At this stage, there were still too few clues, but one thing was certain: after a participant died in the story, they indeed turned into a stone statue, becoming the "sacrifice" mentioned in the game. Moreover, the ghost of the deceased participant would appear in reality to attack the next "player." "This game..." Just then, Ye Sheng, who had been silently observing, suddenly spoke up. "Maybe... I have a way to crack it..." "What?" Chen Mo was startled, showing surprise. At the same time, Dai Minghan reached out and grabbed the student's arm, his voice trembling slightly. "What did you say? You know how to break this curse?" "No... that's not what I meant..." Seeing the exaggerated reactions from everyone, Ye Sheng, a bespectacled, bookish-looking young man, seemed taken aback, then showed an awkward and embarrassed expression. "Sorry... I didn't express myself clearly. I don't mean I can directly break the curse, but since this curse is tied to the game, maybe I can try running the game program on a computer and see if I can analyze anything from it." "Run this cursed game on a computer for analysis?" The student's bold idea surprised Chen Mo. Meanwhile, Dai Minghan also looked astonished, scratching his head. "Would that even work?" "Let him try," Li Kai interjected. "Ye Sheng is really good with computers. I've seen him hack into the school network to change exam scores!" "No kidding, you're a hacker?" Dai Minghan chuckled at Li Kai's words. "But changing exam scores isn't that impressive. If you're really that good, why not hack into a bank and give us each a million?" "Th-that won't do..." Ye Sheng quickly shook his head. "But this is a cursed game. Doing this carries some risk, so you need to think it through." "I know it's risky, but Li Kai survived the ghost's attack, didn't he? That proves the game's curse isn't completely unsolvable. I've thought it over—rather than doing nothing and waiting for the curse to hit me, I'd rather take a gamble. Otherwise, when the time comes and the ghost's restrictions are fully lifted, we'll all be doomed anyway!" "Well said." Lin Tianheng clapped his hands with a grin. "Ye, don't worry. I've got your back. Haha, this ghost won't find it easy to kill you." Ye Sheng nodded, then looked at Chen Mo. "But I need a computer." "That's easy!" Though it was late, finding an internet café open all night wasn't hard. Once they entered a private booth, Li Kai took out his cursed phone, glanced at Ye Sheng, and, with a nod of confirmation, connected it to the computer. Ye Sheng quickly worked, seemingly downloading some programs from the internet, copying the phone's program to the computer. Finally, a prompt appeared on the screen asking whether to run it. Exchanging a look with Li Kai, Ye Sheng felt a surge of tension. This wasn't an ordinary program—it was a cursed game. Copying and running it on a computer could easily spread the curse to him. After hesitating for a few seconds, Ye Sheng gritted his teeth and pressed the run button! In that instant, the booth's lights flickered, and the dark computer screen began running the eerie game, followed by familiar images! Yes, starting from Feng Wenxuan to Li Kai, all the game's story scenes appeared sequentially on the screen. Of course, when the lake and ghost appeared, everyone understood the cause of Feng Wenxuan's death! It was like the movie *Final Destination*—the ghost's attacks on participants were hinted at in the game. If Feng Wenxuan hadn't inexplicably walked into the bathroom but had instead noticed the warning about the lake and ghost, he might have avoided the attack. After all the game's story scenes played out, the computer emitted a grinding noise, as if struggling to process something. Ye Sheng's expression grew serious. To be honest, he wasn't sure what these hacking tools could extract from the cursed game. Even if a vengeful ghost lunged at him from the screen, he wouldn't be too surprised. But what gave him some reassurance was that Chen Mo, Dai Minghan, and the others were on high alert around him. Dai Minghan had survived two story sessions as a listener, while Chen Mo and Lin Tianheng supposedly had their own tools. If anything happened, they would likely protect him. With these thoughts and a nervous heart, Ye Sheng stared intently at the computer screen, waiting for the program's analysis results. Soon, with a click, the screen turned blue. "Crashed?" Ignoring Dai Minghan's question, Ye Sheng's expression grew even more serious. He typed on the keyboard for a while, seemingly forcing a program to restart. The computer's case emitted another harsh grinding sound, but every time it reached a certain point, it would crash. "I told you, this won't work..." Dai Minghan's words trailed off as his expression suddenly changed. This time, though the screen went blue, it displayed a strange, distorted pattern. At the same time, the computer's case emitted a familiar, warped electronic music... Oh no... This music... It was the sign of the curse spreading... Hearing the music, Ye Sheng's face paled slightly, but he didn't get up. Instead, he gritted his teeth, kept his hands firmly on the keyboard, and stared unblinkingly at the screen, not missing any change. On the blue, crashed screen, English letters began to appear one by one. R... I... N... Z...
