Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 579

Facts have proved that although the puppeteer and Lin Sanjiu are at odds with each other, without any one of them, this dungeon will be much more troublesome.

Seeing the beautiful white-feathered goose sprinting closer, Lin Sanjiu hurriedly called out, "Don't let it enter the aisle!", and the goose stopped immediately outside, standing still. Far away, avoiding the thousands of pale arms that are constantly stretching and scratching.There are piles of snacks like a hill between it and the two of them, and a pair of bean-like black eyes are staring at the direction of the puppeteer shining brightly.

"Where did it go in the store? What did it see?" Lin Sanjiu still turned on [Consciousness Mimicry], and asked while meditating: "Do you have a way to know?"

The puppeteer snorted, not even bothering to answer her last question.He didn't know what method he used, and quickly got the information it had detected from the big goose during this period of time.

The store looks small from the outside, but inside it has eight shelf areas and two cold and fresh areas.In each shelf area, there are four large shelves standing back to back, and one shelf is a type of commodity; the cold and fresh area is a row of end-to-end freezers, which mainly store dairy products, vegetables and fruits, and freshly squeezed juices A type of food that needs to be kept fresh.

Unlike Lin Sanjiu, this big goose ran down all the way, and there was no product that caught it and refused to let it go. Therefore, although it ran past every place in the store, it also ran down. Nothing unusual was found on the ground—from the detection information of the big goose, it looks like an ordinary store here.

Lin Sanjiu thought for a while, and asked, "Don't you even see a broken jar or an overturned sample plate?"

Across the hill-like pile of food, the head of the goose poking out shook from side to side, not knowing whether it meant no or not paying attention.

"We have to let it look for it again," Lin Sanjiu smiled wryly. Facing the current predicament that was almost dead, even Ji Shanqing's mind was struggling: "Any little clue can't be let go! Even the wall paint There is a crack, and I must know."

The big goose rolled his eyes at her, turned around and left.It's ironic to say that the puppeteer specializes in removing the souls of people and turning them into dolls; but the special items under his hands are becoming more and more humane.

Lin Sanjiu watched the big goose waddling and disappeared, and heard its owner ask: "...why?"

She paused and replied: "Those data bodies have changed this copy beyond recognition. Now we are like answering questions on a test paper, but all the questions have been crossed out. Without understanding the rules of the game, we naturally Helpless, stepping into a trap without knowing which step to take. But even if it is a data body, they can’t change the fundamental nature of this copy—for example, the question is gone, but they always give us a test paper. Without this A piece of paper, there is no such exam, and basic operating rules like this, they can't move."

"Do you think that this 'test paper' is the hidden information that must be contained in this copy?"

"Yes—for example, that broadcast." Lin Sanjiu felt that his ability to speak was slowly fading, and tried to speak clearly, "I'm curious, why the data body didn't delete it; if all the prompts and Delete the way out, then no matter how hard we struggle, we will definitely be trapped here. But after thinking about it again, I understand. Although they can be deleted, they cannot be deleted when they involve the basic core of the dungeon. Deleted and changed , this dungeon may have also crashed."

"I can't tell, the smart people you hired are really useful. But after talking so much, what should we do now?" the puppeteer asked coolly.

"Wait." Lin Sanjiu sighed.

"Wait? If you wait any longer, you and I won't even be able to speak."

"That will have to wait. The only way to solve this dilemma now is to see how much information we can get from the blockade of those data bodies."

The puppeteer was silent for a while, then said lightly: "I don't think you will get much. Since they are prepared, they will not leave us with a good end." His words clearly did not bring any hope. Standing but not depressed—as if things were just as they should be.

"I'll try it if not much," Lin Sanjiu said heavily, "Until the last second, I'll absolutely——no, even if I die, I'll drag the corpse out if I turn into a ghost!"

The puppeteer smiled softly and said nothing, and the two fell into waiting silence.

Another hour flies by, during which time countless arms protrude from the shelves with no sign of retracting; and worst of all, the effects of being turned into potato chips really start to eat away Two people.Lin Sanjiu had already turned off [Consciousness Mimicry], quietly feeling that she was becoming paralyzed little by little——things have developed to this point, the information about her consciousness might have been completely exposed long ago ;The reason why she turned off the mimicry was just to save some effort.

When the time came, the second broadcast followed: "Ms. Cleveland, is the zipper of your satchel broken? I'll give you a zipper. Please don't sue me for the fall."

zipper?

It wasn't until the end of the broadcast that Lin Sanjiu seemed to be awakened suddenly from a lethargy, feeling that his thoughts seemed to be loose and trembling, and it was even difficult to concentrate.She tried four or five times in a row before finally re-opening the mimicry skill with difficulty. Fortunately, the function of consciousness has not been completely cut off. Once the ability was activated, her thinking finally became clear again.

This is the second time wrestling has been mentioned on the radio... she thought silently.There were two broadcasts in a row around wrestling, and it seemed that this incident was the core of the prompt... Although I still can't understand the connection between "wrestling" and solving my own predicament, starting from here, there should be no mistakes.

When she was thinking about it, she heard the sound of "clicking" again not far away; raising her eyes with difficulty, she happened to meet a pair of black bean eyes above the snack hill—the big goose is back!

"Puppeteer, can you still speak?" Lin Sanjiu said these words dryly and slowly, with great effort.

She waited in fear for a while, but there was still silence in her ears.When her heart sank uncontrollably, she suddenly heard a slight noise, which indistinctly merged into an inarticulate sentence: "It has discovered this time."

The so-called discovery is actually not a great news.Because Lin Sanjiu had said that he would come back and tell her no matter what trivial things happened, so the big goose had indeed done its duty: all the information it brought back, without exception, were trivial.

Even the ambiguous voice could not hide the impatience of the puppeteer - "There is a price tag on the fourth shelf area", "There is always a smell from the hot dog roasting machine at the checkout counter." Weird taste", "I found that Coke Zero was out of stock when I passed the beverage cabinet", "There was a dry stain on the floor of the cold and fresh area, and no one wiped it", "There are expired biscuits that are still being sold"...

"Wait," Lin San drunkenly stopped the puppeteer: "The stain in the chilled area? Let it talk about it."

The goose glanced at her numbly.

"On the ground near the freezer, there is a yellow stain about the size of two palms. It seems that something has dried up. What's there to say?"

"Yellow...what does it smell like? Is it sticky to the touch?"

"Who would smell it! That's what the goose said. It also said that it looks sticky because a hair is stuck on it." The puppeteer struggled to speak, but spent all his energy describing a stain, It sounds more and more unhappy.

Lin Sanjiu's tone was filled with urgency: "Go back to the chilled area quickly! It's best to lick that stain again—why did it open its mouth?"

"It said it was going to bite you."

"Wait, this is really important." Lin Sanjiu was impatient, but his tongue was heavy, and he almost mixed the words together: "You tell it, if it tastes sweet and has a fresh viscosity, it will be in the Look around the freezer—there must be something that doesn't belong in this store!"

The big goose gave her a gloomy look, quite like a master.It finally left, and was ordered to lick a stain on the ground—the puppeteer seemed to be rarely aroused by curiosity: "What's going on? Tell me."

"The two times of wrestling were mentioned in the broadcast, so it must be the key to solving the dilemma." Lin Sanjiu himself was half guessing, half guessing, which can be said to be completely groundless: "The first broadcast clue may be virtual. , and may have indeed left marks in the store. But the second broadcast thread was different. It indicated that Mrs. Cleveland's satchel had a broken zipper—and it had broken when she fell."

The puppeteer was not stupid either, so he immediately interjected, "Do you suspect that Mrs. Cleveland dropped something while she was wrestling in the store?"

"Yes! We are reminded again and again that she has fallen, and there must be a purpose--according to the connection between the current information, all I can think of is that she dropped something. If you want to find this thing, you must first find her wrestling place; and the news brought back by the big goose provides us with a possibility that maybe the stains near the chilled area were the cause of her wrestling."

"Then let it lick the stains and say it's sweet or not..."

"That's just my guess." Lin Sanjiu smiled embarrassedly—she is still in the mimicry of the gift bag, if she had changed herself, she would definitely not be embarrassed in front of the puppeteer: "Be good!" The store, why did traces of yellow liquid suddenly appear on the ground? I suspect that the drink from the chilled area was spilled... not only because it is sticky, but also the stain area is not large, as if it was accidentally spilled."

As soon as she finished her sentence, the "click" of the goose's paw hitting the ground sounded again—the big goose came back with an unhappy face and something in its mouth.
