After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 70

Chapter 70: The Achievment Were Stolen
“What?” Upon hearing this, the foot-scratching big man looked bewildered. “No, I stayed up late writing code and died suddenly.”

However, Zhouzhou stared at him for a while and made a judgment. “No, someone else killed you.”

If he died from an illness, it wouldn’t have happened like this. She lightly sniffed the evil energy emanating from his heart, mixed with a hint of medicinal herbs, further confirming her thoughts.

Hearing her words, the foot-scratching big man was also at a loss and muttered, “That can’t be.”

He remembered that he was writing code in his rental house that day, and then he suddenly passed away. When he woke up, he was already floating in the air and heard the doctor say he died from sudden death due to overwork.

Zhouzhou asked, “Which company were you working for?”

According to him, he hadn’t been in contact with anyone other than his colleagues at the company during that time.

The foot-scratching big man replied, “Mingyuan, it’s a small company. You probably haven’t heard of it.”

“Mingyuan?” However, Sun Xin was surprised and turned to look at the game on his desk. “Isn’t this developed by Mingyuan? Because of this game, Mingyuan has become popular. It’s not a small company anymore, they’re about to go public.”

Upon hearing this, the foot-scratching big man also became confused. He obviously didn’t know about this, but when he heard the latter part of Sun Xin’s words, he became happy again. “I knew it, my game is definitely going to be popular!”

He was a programmer in his previous life, specializing in game development. After graduating, he started a business with his roommates, and staying up all night was a common occurrence. So when he heard that he died suddenly, he didn’t suspect anything.

However, when Sun Xin heard his words, his expression became strange. “How is that possible? Chief Yang developed it.”

“Chief Yang?” The foot-scratching big man paused for a moment, thinking about the people around him. There was only one person surnamed Yang, so he asked, “Yang Pengcheng?”

“Yes.” Still trapped in the wall and not yet freed, Sun Xin was no longer afraid of him. He stood up and said, “Chief Yang bought a painting from me before. We know each other. He said he developed this game, and he even had a special interview on the financial channel. Everyone knows about it.”

As he spoke, he clicked a few times on the computer and found the video, playing it.

In the video, Yang Pengcheng was wearing a suit and speaking eloquently, sharing his game concept and journey, which was both touching and inspiring.

However, the foot-scratching big man was dumbfounded. “No, no, those words are what I said.”

“What did you say?” Sun Xin asked.

“I said I developed the game for the sake of fulfilling my martial arts dream, and also, the person who stays up all night working on programming and running tests is me!” The foot-scratching big man became excited, scratching the wall to pull himself out. As a spirit, he wouldn’t be hurt or anything.

At this time, the interview hadn’t ended yet. Upon hearing the host’s question, he answered along, and the words he spoke were almost identical to what Yang Pengcheng said.

Sun Xin was also perplexed and asked him several questions about the game. The foot-scratching big man answered clearly and confidently, without hesitation.

Looking at him like this, he didn’t seem to be lying.

“So how does Chief Yang claim it was him who developed it?”

“He did nothing!” The foot-scratching big man became furious. “He never passed any exams. He can’t even make a small game, let alone a large-scale online game. How could he have developed it?”

As he spoke, he recalled Zhouzhou’s earlier words and said, “He must have killed me!”

No one else had a stronger motive than him.

The foot-scratching big man clenched his teeth in anger. He had actually considered him a good brother. What a disgrace!

Hearing these words, Zhouzhou rubbed her chin. In that case, the person named Yang Pengcheng was indeed the most suspicious.

Since they had encountered each other, it naturally had to be resolved.

Zhouzhou said, “Okay, I’ll go see him first, and then we’ll know if he’s the one who killed you.”

“Yeah, yeah!” The foot-scratching big man nodded repeatedly and wailed, “Little Heaven Master, you must stand up for me!”

“I’m so miserable. I put so much effort into making a game, hoping to get rich with it. But just as I was about to succeed, someone killed me.”

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou’s expression became serious. “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you.”

The heavens and the earth are vast, but nothing is more significant than becoming wealthy. Blocking someone’s fortune is unforgivable. Plotting for wealth and harming lives is even more despicable.

With her presence, the foot-scratching big man felt much more at ease, looking at her with full trust.

When she was about to leave, Sun Xin hurriedly pointed at the foot-scratching big man and said, “Little Heaven Master, can you take him with you too? Can you please not leave him here? He’s scared.”

The foot-scratching big man gave him a disdainful look and said, “Do you think I want to stay here? You’re such a loser.”

His words hit Sun Xin’s sore spot, and he suddenly realized something. He asked, “So, you targeted me in the game because I’m bad at playing?”

“Otherwise?” The foot-scratching big man responded unapologetically, which infuriated Sun Xin. He gritted his teeth and asked, “Then why did you touch me in the middle of the night?”

“What’s wrong with giving you a little massage? Maybe you’re tired from working overtime, so I thought I could loosen up your muscles and bones.” The foot-scratching big man replied nonchalantly.

Hmph, was that a massage? It was no different from hitting someone!

Sun Xin turned his head in anger and refused to speak to him.

Zhouzhou pondered for a moment and said, “You come with me.”

It was indeed not a good idea to leave him here; it could affect the luck of the living.

This time, the foot-scratching big man didn’t respond aggressively. He looked somewhat embarrassed and said, “Little Heaven Master, it’s not that I don’t want to go, but I can’t leave. I can’t even leave this room.”

What? There’s more to this?

“Then try it with me.” Zhouzhou suggested.

The foot-scratching big man hesitated, and from the look in his eyes, he was starting to doubt her reliability. He muttered to himself, wondering if she was trustworthy or not.

In the end, he decided to give it a try.

As soon as he reached the doorway, he was instantly sucked into the computer.

“I didn’t lie, did I?” The foot-scratching big man crawled out of the computer, placing his big feet on the computer desk, causing Sun Xin’s face to contort in disgust.

Why did other people’s TVs have Sadako coming out of them, while his computer could only produce a muscular man? And a bald one at that!

He was so frustrated. There was always someone better than him in every aspect.

Ignoring his thoughts, Zhouzhou stared at the computer for a while and realized something. She pointed at the game icon and said, “This is what trapped you.”

This game was his obsession, so even after his death, he was unwilling to leave.

As for why he ended up on Sun Xin’s computer, it was probably because he was attracted by the sword in this room. Later, when he saw this game, he became even more reluctant to leave.

Zhouzhou looked up at the foot-scratching big man and said earnestly, “You have to think about leaving in your heart. I will take you to retrieve your game. Enter this talisman and don’t resist.”

Saying that, Zhouzhou took out a Soul-Nurturing Talisman from her bag and let him enter it.

The foot-scratching big man nodded, took a deep breath, and had no thoughts of resistance. He smoothly entered the talisman.

The decorations inside the talisman changed as one wished.

Looking at the esports-themed coffin inside, his eyes lit up. He liked this place!

After folding the talisman, Zhouzhou took out another one and handed it to Sun Xin. “This is a Talisman against Evil. Also, don’t keep any swords or knives in your bedroom.”

“Okay, okay!” Sun Xin nodded repeatedly. He immediately jumped onto the bed and took down the sword, carefully storing the talisman she gave him. Then he asked, “Little Heaven Master, can I accompany you and see what’s going on?”

It sounded thrilling to him.

Zhouzhou glanced at him and said, “Now you’re not afraid anymore?”

Sun Xin chuckled, “With you here, what do I have to be afraid of? Besides, I also know Chief Yang. When you meet him, I can show you the way.”

Zhouzhou tilted her head and thought for a moment. “Alright then, let’s go together.”

Saying that, she turned to look at Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin. “Grandpa, Grandma, why don’t you go home first? It’s tiring to accompany me, and I’ll be done here soon, then I’ll go back.”

“It’s alright, Grandma is in good health,” Grandma Qin said, secretly thinking that if it was really done by Yang Pengcheng, she didn’t want Zhouzhou to be alone with him.

How could I?

She thought for a moment and said, “I’ll make a phone call.”
