Kaleidoscope of Death

Lin Qiushi has a gentle temper, but when such a gentle person gets angry, Ruan Nanzhu feels helpless.But after all, it was inside the door, and Lin Qiushi didn't delay the business because of some problems between himself and Ruan Nanzhu.

He told Ruan Nanzhu everything that happened after Ruan Nanzhu was locked in the house, about other people's reactions, and Xiao Ji's every move was the most important point.

After listening carefully, Ruan Nanzhu asked, "Is he the first person to ask you where the key is?"

"Yes." Lin Qiushi nodded.In fact, this matter is a bit strange. Since Xiaoji has cooperated with Box Girl, he should wish that the key would be buried, but as the leader, he even wanted to get Ruan Nanzhu to hand over the key even at the expense of arousing Lin Qiushi's disgust.

If Xiaoji was not an insider, then what he did was undeniable, but as soon as his identity as an insider was exposed, this behavior became abnormal, full of a strange sense of disobedience.

"I think this little Ji knows something else." Ruan Nanzhu deliberately wanted Lin Qiushi to say a few more words, "What do you think, Lin Lin?"

"Well." Lin Qiushi said lightly, "I guess, he may know the location of the tunnel."

Once you know the key and the tunnel, you can leave the bungalow.Xiao Ji was probably also afraid that something might happen to the box girl, so she was looking for other ways out for herself.

"I'm just afraid not to say it." Liang Miye sat on the other bed, she said, "I don't know if there is any way for Xiaomei to make him say it."

Ruan Nanzhu was thoughtful.

After discussing for a while, they got up and washed, planning to go to the restaurant first.

At this time, Xiaoji was still tied up in the restaurant, and they left Sun Yuanzhou and his partner to watch the night. There was no movement last night, and no special accident happened.

Before going to the restaurant, Lin Qiushi went to the place where Xiaoji said yesterday that the fire extinguisher was hidden, and listened to the movement inside, only to find that there was already a boxman hidden in the box.

"There is a box man." Lin Qiushi said.

Ruan Nanzhu thought for a while and said, "Mi Ye, go and call Ren Ruyuan over."

Liang Miye nodded, and went upstairs to call Ren Ruyuan down. Ren Ruyuan understood very well, and came over with gasoline in his hand, and said, "Then I'll use it."

"Use it." Ruan Nanzhu said.

Then Ren Ruyuan poured gasoline on the box and lit a fire.A moment after the wooden box was on fire, there was a scream inside, and then the lid of the box was opened, and a pale-skinned person crawled out from inside. , but the flames ignited his body, and his body began to emit a disgusting smell of burnt protein.

When the other people in the bungalow heard the movement, they all gathered around and saw the terrible scene.

Lin Qiushi noticed something, he licked his lips, his expression was a bit ugly.

After about a few minutes, the screams of the box man gradually subsided, and it turned into a coke-like appearance.

Everyone looked at the motionless person, but fell into a long silence, until Xiao Mei's voice sounded at the door of the house, and she said, "Isn't this Wei Xiude?"

"This should be the box man he turned into." Sun Yuanzhou glanced at Xiao Mei, "Since he has become a box man, he is no longer a human being."

"Is that so?" Xiaomei replied vaguely.

Lin Qiushi held his breath, walked up to the box, and looked into the box. Sure enough, a red fire extinguisher was lying quietly in the depths of the box. He reached out to pick up the fire extinguisher, turned around and handed it to Sun Yuanzhou.

Sun Yuanzhou didn't answer it, and said: "Take it, and use it when it's appropriate. Anyway, this thing is to save everyone's life."

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nanzhu and saw him nodding before putting away the fire extinguisher.

The room was filled with the stench of burnt human body. After getting the fire extinguisher, everyone left one after another and didn't want to stay any longer. Only Xiao Mei stood at the door and didn't move for a long time.

Lin Qiushi glanced at her and wanted to say something, but couldn't.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Lin Qiushi found that there should have been eleven people and there were two missing. They waited until around nine o'clock, but they still didn't see those two people. They knew that these two people would never come again.Lin Qiushi remembered that the two had been hungry for about three days, and it seemed that they couldn't hold on, so they went to open the box again this morning...

At this time, there were only nine people left, and the whole bungalow was filled with box figures made by box girls.

Fear, hunger, and despair are enough to destroy a person's mind, and it is normal to do anything radical here,

Xiaoji didn't eat or sleep all day. Compared with yesterday, she looked much haggard.

It's just that when Xiao Mei saw his appearance, she didn't feel sympathetic at all. The first thing she did when she entered the restaurant was to kick Xiaoji who was tied to the chair to the ground.

The others saw it and didn't express any opinions. After all, if they hadn't discovered Xiao Ji's internal identity, they would probably suffer even worse from him.

Ruan Nanzhu sat next to Xiao Ji, chewing bread, and said, "Xiao Ji, tell me, is there something else you are hiding from us?"

Xiaoji didn't say a word, but stared at them with resentful eyes.

"I think you'd better figure it out," Ruan Nanzhu said. "Your current enemy is not us, but the box girl. We can't kill you, but the box girl can." He played with the fork in his hand, "Do you think the next box you open will be empty or empty?" box man?"

Xiaoji reflexively wanted to open his mouth to refute, but when the words came to his mouth, he still couldn't say it, because he found that what Ruan Nanzhu said was indeed true.

Once he has no use value, the box girl will never be soft on him.Just like Tian Guxue whose identity was found out...

"Are you sure you won't hurt me?" Xiao Ji said, "If you can promise this, I'll tell you."

"Of course." Ruan Nanzhu smiled, "Besides, you can't kill people inside the door, it's not like you don't know..."

Thistle was lost in thought.

Lin Qiushi noticed that Xiaomei, who was standing next to Xiaoji, showed resentment after hearing the conversation between the two. Lin Qiushi thought she would say something, but in the end she remained silent.

"Okay, I can tell you the location of the tunnel." Xiao Ji said, "However, I can't guarantee whether the location of the tunnel has been replaced."

"When did you drive it?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

"It was opened very early." Xiao Ji said, "It was probably the first day I came in." He said lightly, "So I have been wanting to get the key since then..." As long as he gets the key, he can be the first Leaving here, there is no need to continue to cooperate with Humoupi and Box Girl.

It's just that I didn't expect the key to fall into Ruan Nanzhu's hands in the end.

"Go, take him over to have a look." Ruan Nanzhu said.

The group of them went to the room Xiaoji said, the kitchen on the first floor, there were eight boxes in the kitchen, and three of the boxes had sticky notes on them, which seemed to have been opened.Xiaomei stood beside one of the boxes and touched it with her hand. Lin Qiushi remembered that her lover lost his life because of opening this box.

"Which one?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

"This." Xiao Ji pointed to a box near the door.

"Since you said the tunnel is inside, please open it first." Xiao Mei said coldly.

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Xiao Ji said angrily, "The box girl must have hidden a box man inside, isn't it courting death for me to open it like this? Don't you guys have a tool to judge whether there is a box man? Get it out and use it!" !"

Sun Yuanzhou took out the stethoscope he got from Xiao Ji yesterday, listened carefully and said, "There is a sound."

"It doesn't matter if there is a sound." Ruan Nanzhu said lightly, "As long as you are sure it is this box, you can use the white wood toon directly." He took out the props.

Bai Muchun can kill the box girl, and naturally he can also kill the box man.

"That's easy." Xiaoji said, "As long as you use the white wood toon on the box first, and make sure that there is nothing else in the box, you can go out directly?" He laughed a little excitedly, "We You can get out of here now!"

Now there are nine people left in the room, except for Xiao Ji and Xiao Mei, they are all veterans.

Although the two rookies were tricked in by Wei Xiude, as long as they could get out through the doors, they would benefit enormously—they could directly skip the nine doors and gain a long survival time.This is simply a lucrative business.

"Do you want to use it?" Sun Yuanzhou glanced at Ruan Nanzhu.

"Wait." Ruan Nanzhu looked at the box in the corner, turned his head and asked, "You drove out of the tunnel the next day, right?"

"Yes, what's the matter?" Xiaoji said.

"Then do you know when Tian Guxue used the skill of moving around?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

Xiaoji was stunned: "She seems to have found it as soon as she entered the door..." He seemed to have thought of something, and his body shivered involuntarily, "What do you mean?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "What I mean is, do you think it is possible for the box girl to use this skill?"

Thistle fell silent.

In fact, this possibility exists, because the box girl cried once when they arrived at this bungalow on the first day.It's just that everyone didn't take it to heart that time, and according to the rule book, some skills can be used for a long time without crying, such as false responses.

In the real board game, the skill of Box Girl’s false response is her passive skill. Whenever and wherever players ask her, they may get wrong answers.

As soon as Xiaoji thought about it, cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and he swallowed heavily: "You mean, this box may have been replaced?"

"Yes." Ruan Nanzhu said, "There is such a possibility." He said, "Of course, we may be worrying too much."

However, in front of life, there is no need to worry too much. As long as there is a slight possibility, it is [-]% death.

Listening to the conversation between Ruan Nanzhu and Xiao Ji, everyone stared at the box in front of them and fell silent.

The ability of the box girl to move around can be used on the tunnel. There are currently eight boxes in the room, which means that they have a [-]/[-] chance of opening the contents.

"What should I do?" Xuan Zihui was in a bit of a breakdown. Her partner was gone, and she hadn't eaten for two days. She knew she wouldn't survive the third day, and she had to open the box tomorrow.However, as long as you open the box, you must face the threat of the box man.

Xiao Ji froze in place, as if he didn't expect that he would lift a rock and shoot himself in the foot, he said in a daze, "Then what should we do, otherwise we'll open the box again to see if we can find any useful props?"

Ruan Nanzhu sighed, and he said: "There are not many unopened boxes now, there are fourteen people in the box, and fifteen women in the box, they will definitely be hidden in the unopened boxes .”

Unopened chests meant there were items inside that they hadn't gotten.The box girl won't let them get these things so easily.

"Then what should we do?" Sun Yuanzhou said hoarsely, "Can we just sit and wait for death?"

Ruan Nanzhu didn't speak.

The difficulty of the tenth door lies here, and it is impossible to pass through it easily.The door in front of them posed a great problem for them, whether to continue spending time here, or to make one-eighth multiple-choice questions.

They have a one-eighth chance of finding the tunnel, and if they find the wrong one...

Everyone stopped talking, and the wooden box in front of them seemed to have turned into a life-threatening evil spirit.

Ruan Nanzhu finally said: "Let's look at it tomorrow. When the stethoscope is counted tomorrow, we can see how many boxes can be opened."

It seemed that this was the only way to go, but the people who thought they could go out became dejected, and the breath of despair filled the air again.

Everyone dispersed, leaving the bundled Xiaoji alone in the dining room.

Liang Miye said: "Does the meaning of the door mean that we are all going to die?" There are still nine people and eight boxes. Life serves as a springboard for others.

Ruan Nanzhu said lightly: "This is a very normal thing." He looked at Lin Qiushi, but saw Lin Qiushi thinking about something.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Lin Lin, why don't you speak?"

Lin Qiushi glanced at him: "Say what?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Just say anything."

Lin Qiushi said: "I have nothing to say."

Ruan Nanzhu said: "You..."

Lin Qiushi seemed to have guessed what Ruan Nanzhu wanted to say, and made a stop gesture: "Okay, let's just talk about business now."

Ruan Nanzhu felt aggrieved instantly, and said, "Lin Lin..."

Lin Qiushi didn't give him a chance to take the stage, so he stood up and said, "I'll go and see Xiaomei."

Ruan Nanzhu: "..." He sighed softly, turned his head and saw Liang Miye's gloating expression.

Ruan Nanzhu: "Does it look good?"

Liang Miye giggled and said happily: "It looks good." Ruan Nanzhu, who was so cold outside, had nothing to do with Lin Qiushi. She was quite happy to see this gossip.

Lin Qiushi wandered around the house, then went to the restaurant on the first floor.

At this time, the bungalow was no longer as lively as it was a few days ago, and at night, the whole building fell into dead silence.But when Lin Qiushi walked to the door of the restaurant, he saw Xiaomei sitting in the restaurant, holding a bottle of wine, drinking slowly.

Opposite her was Xiao Ji, with a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth, looking at Xiao Mei with a horrified expression.

"Xiaomei?" Lin Qiushi called out her name, "Why don't you go to rest?"

Xiaomei heard Lin Qiushi's voice, glanced at him, and smiled: "I can't sleep." She took another sip of wine and said.

Lin Qiushi walked to her side and sat down.

Xiaomei asked him if he wanted to drink, but Lin Qiushi refused.

"What did you think when you knew Zhu Meng was gone?" Xiao Mei said.

Lin Qiushi said: "I want to avenge him."

Xiao Mei said: "Kill that spy, right?"

Lin Qiushi glanced at Xiao Ji and nodded.

"Actually, I think so too." Xiaomei said, "If it wasn't for Xiaoji, we might have gone out a long time ago. He not only helped the box girl, but also tripped us up. This kind of person is really damned." Her The tone was understated, but Xiao Ji, who was sitting opposite her, struggled violently and cast a look of help to Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi gave him a cold look, without any response.He is not a saint, and when he thought that Ruan Nanzhu might die alone because of Xiaoji, he couldn't feel any sympathy for this person.

Everything is his own doing.

"Go to sleep." Xiaomei said, "It's too late."

Lin Qiushi said: "What about you?"

Xiaomei said: "I can't sleep, let's drink for a while, you have to treat Zhu Meng well, she loves you very much." She said, "Of course, you love her too." She stretched out her hand to wipe Tears in the corners of the eyes.

Lin Qiushi stood up: "He definitely wants you to live well." He was talking about Xiaomei's lover.

"Well, I know." Xiaomei laughed when she heard this sentence, "Who doesn't want to live a good life, I will go to rest later, good night."

"Good night." Lin Qiushi turned and left.

He always felt familiar with Xiaomei's appearance, and thinking about it carefully, it might be that he realized that he would lose Ruan Nanzhu.Ruan Nanzhu's previous worries were justified. He couldn't face his lover's departure calmly. When Lin Qiushi returned to the house, he saw Ruan Nanzhu lying on the bed and sleeping.

Hearing his footsteps, Ruan Nanzhu opened his eyes to look at him, and called out in a low voice, "You're back."

Lin Qiushi said: "I'm back."

Ruan Nanzhu pulled the quilt away: "Can you come and accompany me? I can't sleep without you."

Lin Qiushi walked to his side and said, "Don't lie to me next time."

Ruan Nanzhu was stunned.

"You promise, don't lie to me again next time. Whether you want to act or die, you have to tell me everything." Lin Qiushi said, "I am your lover, and I have the right to know everything. There is no need for the so-called good for you."

Ruan Nanzhu put his arms around Lin Qiushi's neck, and put a comforting kiss on his brow and eyes, and said, "Okay, I promise, I will never hide anything from you in the future."

Lin Qiushi said: "Sleep."

Ruan Nanzhu was satisfied, although he didn't know why Lin Qiushi suddenly wanted to understand, but Lin Qiushi was willing to talk to him after all, and he also promised that he would never do such a thing again.Ruan Nanzhu thought that the luckiest one he met with Lin Qiushi was actually himself.

Lin Qiushi fell asleep with Ruan Nanzhu in his arms, and the two of them entangled their limbs and fell into a deep sleep.

At six o'clock the next morning, a scream came from the dining room, which woke Lin Qiushi up. He opened his eyes and saw Ruan Nanzhu's dazed expression.

"What's wrong?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

"Something happened." Lin Qiushi said, "Go down and have a look."

The two got up from the bed and hurried to the first floor with Liang Miye, but they saw Xuan Zihui standing at the door of the kitchen with a terrified expression.

"What's wrong?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

Xuan Zihui shook her head vigorously and pointed to the room.

Lin Qiushi looked up, but saw Xiao Mei standing in the kitchen with a cold expression, holding a table knife in her hand, and there were traces of blood everywhere.It would be fine if it was just like this, but the most terrifying thing was that there were limb remains scattered around her, and there were even some pieces of meat that looked like they were cut with a knife.

And Xiaoji, who was originally tied to the chair, disappeared at this time, and Lin Qiushi had already guessed his fate.

"Xiaomei!!" Lin Qiushi was stunned, "You killed Xiaoji?!"

Xiao Mei said calmly: "There are four boxes that are empty and there are no tunnels. There is a box man in this box, and there are no tunnels. There are three left."

Lin Qiushi instantly understood what Xiaomei was doing. She was forcing Xiaoji to open the box and use Xiaoji's life to test the location of the tunnel.

"Xiaomei! You can't kill people inside the door!" Lin Qiushi said hoarsely, "You..."

"I know you can't kill people, I know." Xiao Mei smiled lightly, "Besides, I don't intend to live."

She looked at the three empty boxes that had been opened next to her, and a wooden box that was screaming like a thistle, and showed a bright smile.

"Wait—" Lin Qiushi guessed what she was going to do, but before he could stop him, he saw Xiaomei walking up to a box, and with a natural expression, she reached out and grabbed the lid of the box. She smiled and said, "Actually, I don't call Xiao Mei, there is a word Mei in his name, that's why I gave myself such an alias." She sighed softly, "Give me another chance."

With a slight movement of her hand, she lifted the cover, revealing the box man hidden inside.

However, the moment she saw the person in the box, Xiao Mei showed a bright smile, those pale hands grabbed her body, but she didn't struggle, her expression became unusually happy, she hugged the person inside the box with her backhand. The box man was dragged in with a contented expression.

Lin Qiushi stood by and witnessed everything. He knew why Xiaomei was so satisfied, because the person in the box was her lover.

Ruan Nanzhu, who was standing next to Lin Qiushi, suddenly said, "Is this a good thing?"

"It's a good thing." Lin Qiushi said calmly, "At least for me."

Ruan Nanzhu stopped talking, but held Lin Qiushi's hand with all his strength.
