Yanxun entered the "Liyuan Murder Case" script for the first time and got the identity of the "suspect" - the famous actor "Boss Su" who died backstage in 1943 and turned into a dead soul. When searching for evidence, he suddenly identified him as the murderer. In a panic, he discovered that the other players had their own hidden agendas: the seemingly innocent female student was hiding old photos from the Republic of China, and the businessman players were frequently destroying clues.
The system prompts that "the deceased's speech contains key information." Yanxun takes the risk to violate the rule of "not looking into the eyes of the deceased" and asks about the "half piece of dragon-patterned jade pendant" that Boss Su saw before he died. Following the clues, he revealed that the businessman Player was actually the murderer Fazi, and the female student was Boss Su's illegitimate daughter. Both of them were covering up the truth.
After clearing the level, Yanxun learned that behind the game was an existence from another dimension that devoured human consciousness, and that "the dead speak" was the last signal of resistance from the souls of the dead. As he delved deeper into dungeons such as "Hospital Ghost Stories" and "Secrets of the Ancient House", he gradually mastered the skills of identifying the lies of the deceased souls, and also met He Sui, a girl who can empathize with the deceased souls. The two discovered that all the scripts pointed to a mass disappearance case twenty years ago, and the manipulator behind the system was actually related to the disappearance of Yanxun's father...
