Volume 3 Chapter 27: Dog Bro, Take Me With You, Dog Bro!
Ah…
Gao Ye crawled out of the sewer and was still seriously searching for Lin Lin’s whereabouts.
Come out already. Wouldn’t it be better to reunite you with my big brother in the ghost chat sooner?
She was even tempted to peek at the screen to see where Lin Lin was hiding now.
Hmm…
Just as she was about to take action, a red figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
Oh ho~
So you’re here~
The catgirl curled her lips into a smile. Seeing no one around, she quickly moved closer.
Lin Lin froze for a moment, then immediately understood what was happening.
“Help! Dog Bro—someone’s chasing me!”
The vampire girl shouted as she ran. Gao Liang’s soul followed beside her, awkwardly pulling a stiff smile.
Well… in this situation, even if he wanted to help, it was impossible, right?
“Hehehe, Ari-chan, stop running. Be good and go on your way!”
“Ahh—help—!”
Uh…
Gao Liang, who had two streams open at the same time, fell silent for a moment.
Why are these two so perfectly in sync, even though neither of them is peeking at the other’s screen?
While the chase was going on, Gao Ye suddenly realized something.
Wait a second.
Didn’t a random player say earlier that they were going to watch the cameras?
And right now, she seemed to be inside the camera’s view.
If that person happened to see her chasing Sister Lin Lin… uh… wouldn’t that expose her?
Well, actually, she was already pretty much exposed.
Ahem.
Whatever. Just finish her off!
In the end, Lin Lin couldn’t outrun her and was taken down with one strike.
“Awoo—”
Just as Lin Lin fell, she saw a meeting notification appear on the screen. Clearly, someone had pressed the emergency button.
“Damn it! Just one second, just one second more!”
Lin Lin helplessly banged the table and shouted in protest.
“I was so close to surviving!”
【LOL, what kind of horror game is this?】
【It even has chasing like this?】
【Too bad for Ari-chan. If the button was pressed a bit earlier, she would’ve lived.】
【What kind of grudge does the catgirl have to want Ari-chan dead this badly?】
【Totally reasonable to suspect these two have some real-life beef.】
“Guess right. There really is a grudge.” Lin Lin turned her head away helplessly. This caught Gao Liang’s interest, and he quietly typed:
【Watching VTubers Makes Me a Dog: What kind of grudge?】
【Yeah yeah, what grudge?】
【Don’t tell me it’s over a guy, haha. Like sharing the same ex-boyfriend or something?】
【You throwing shade? Give my carrot bun back, huh?】
“What are you talking about? She doesn’t even have something like an ex-boyfriend, right? Hmm… though she might soon have one… ah, never mind, never mind. Ahem. Catgirl fans, please ignore what I just said.”
Lin Lin quickly shook her head. She almost—almost ruined Gao Ye’s career path. Good thing she stopped herself… or did she?
【??? Something wrong with the catgirl?】
【Does the catgirl have a secret boyfriend now?】
【Are the catgirl and Ari-chan acting out a ‘White Album’ drama?】
Looks like she didn’t really stop herself.
Whatever. It’s her fault for trying so hard to kill me.
Hmph.
Bad people don’t get good endings!
Sure enough, in the next meeting, the green random player immediately led everyone to vote out Gao Ye, who was caught red-handed.
The first round ended in mutual damage between the three of them.
Because Gao Ye played way too aggressively, the traitors lost this round, and the good side won.
The two streamers opened each other’s live streams again and continued trash-talking.
Lin Lin: “Wow, who was the dumbest traitor this round? Killing under the cameras—way too wild, huh?”
Gao Ye: “Tsk. Oh right, who did I casually stab just now? I forgot. I only remember someone in red. Ara~ so it was Ari-chan~ You looked so pitiful running away~”
Lin Lin: “Damn it, you… I don’t accept this! Next time I’m an impostor, I’ll kill you first. Just you wait!”
Gao Ye: “Hah, like I’m scared. Another round?”
Lin Lin: “Bring it on!”
After watching this whole exchange, which felt like two elementary school girls arguing, the three of them, still not satisfied, decided to play another round.
So, the game started again.
This time, Lin Lin…
Was still a crewmate.
Ah, she really wanted to be an impostor.
The girl puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction. Even so, Lin Lin quickly came up with a plan.
At the start, Gao Ye immediately ran off on her own.
Seeing this, Lin Lin guessed, based on last round, when Gao Ye followed her and Dog Bro the whole time as a wolf, that this time Gao Ye must be a good role.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be acting alone.
Also, she was probably quite afraid that Lin Lin might be the wolf.
Hehe.
With that mindset, Lin Lin quietly moved closer.
The red character and the yellow character stuck very close to each other. Lin Lin carefully controlled the distance, acting like she could stab Gao Ye at any moment.
This scared the catgirl on stream so much that she swallowed hard and started running in circles like crazy.
This girl…
Is she a wolf?
Is she just here to torture me?
“This person wants to kill me! Damn it, she definitely wants to kill me! I need to report this!”
Gao Ye shouted while running away. Lin Lin kept following her, staying right behind her the whole time, doing nothing at all. She wasn’t trying to kill, she was just putting on maximum mental pressure.
But then…
There was no “then.”
Ahem. Even though Lin Lin really wanted to stab this girl to get revenge, she didn’t even have a kill button. She was a good role.
After Lin Lin finally left her and ran off in the opposite direction, Gao Ye stood there for a few seconds, stunned. A moment later, she finally realized it.
Damn it!
This girl… this girl isn’t a wolf, is she?
Bluffing?
What?!
The catgirl instantly got so angry she started shaking, her eyes losing all shine.
Just you wait!
Meanwhile, after leaving Gao Ye behind, Lin Lin finally started doing tasks.
By coincidence, in one of the rooms, Lin Lin suddenly ran into Dog Bro.
Seeing Dog Bro doing tasks, Lin Lin moved closer. She didn’t do anything special, she just wanted to stick close to Dog Bro for a bit.
Ahem. Working hard? I don’t even like working in real life. How motivated do you think I’d be in a game?
Fixing the spaceship or whatever, it’s not urgent.
Dog Bro seemed a bit conflicted about the little vampire girl showing up. He almost immediately wanted to leave the room and go somewhere else.
Lin Lin thought for a moment, then smiled and said, “Dog Bro, you didn’t think I was a wolf, did you?”
【LOL, the little vampire girl really makes a civilian feel like a werewolf.】
【Do your tasks! Do your tasks! I’m so anxious, my OCD is acting up!】
【My blood pressure is going up already.】
“No rush. I’ll follow Dog Bro for a bit longer, hehe. Gotta scare him a little.”
The little vampire girl smiled and switched into full follow mode.
She hurried after Dog Bro, and while chasing him, she also shouted into the stream:
“Dog Bro—Dog Bro, take me with you~ Without you, how can I live, Dog Bro, Dog Bro!”
“Dog Bro, Dog Bro, take me with you, Dog Bro~!”
【Pfft, what a girl chasing her husband.】
【Yanzi, Yanzi, help her, Yanzi!】
【Dog Bro is really scared. This isn’t a werewolf, this is a yandere, hahaha.】
Gao Liang’s mouth twitched.
This…
Vampire girl, sorry about this!
