Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

The second and third floors were almost explored, and this time, no additional clues were found.Everyone finally gathered in the sun room on the top floor.Outside the glass curtain wall is the bottomless darkness, which surrounds the bare sun room like an isolated island.The wild wild wind slapped on the windows, and the whole glass house looked crumbling.

Fifteen chairs are arranged in a circle in what looks like some sort of cult ritual.There was a task paper on one of the chairs, Xu Rendong picked up the paper, and read the passage that he had read countless times:

"Instructions for the courage training camp: 1. The theme of this issue: the deepest horror in your heart. 2. Activity content: Please turn off the lights at 00:00:00 every night, share a ghost story in the glass room, and face the inner horror. Share at least one story every night. 3. Friendly reminder: Stories can’t be repeated, they will die. Stories can’t be scary, they will die. 4. Lie to you.”

Xu Rendong has almost memorized this passage.After reading it again, he passed the note to the next person and fell into thought.

There are two ways to die this time. One is that the ghost story is not scary enough, and the narrator will be frozen into an ice cube and die on the spot.The second is that ghost stories come true, and everyone will die according to the setting of the story.However, once a ghost story is established, not only will the ghosts in it come to reality, but some key settings will also come true.Lian Qiao deliberately added the element of "elevator" to Sadako's story, which just proves this point.

But the problem is, before that, there was a setting in Xu Rendong's "juniper tree" story, that is, you can't probe into the box, otherwise your head will be pinched off.He didn't expect that the elevator car was also a "box", so that when Lian Qiao entered the elevator, his whole body was cut into two and died tragically in front of him.

This time the situation was worse than last time.After this rebirth, he has been out of shape, unable to recover from the blow of Lian Qiao being cut in half in front of him.So much so that I couldn't be wary of the sand sculpture president, so that the president actually said the names of the two movies A Nightmare on Elm Street and Return of the Soul in advance.

Just one Nightmare on Elm Street is quite a headache. This time, two horror films will be released together. I'm afraid it will be wiped out tonight.

Xu Rendong glanced at the time, and there were only 2 minutes left before midnight.President Little Sun stepped forward and was about to speak when Xu Rendong interrupted first: "Anyway, I'll test the water first. If something happens to me, please take care of my two little followers for me."

The president of Little Sun had a surprised expression of "how did you steal my lines", but since this is the boss of Jiuguan, he didn't dare to make mistakes.Lian Qiao was a little worried, and leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Brother Liandong, what do you want to do?"

Xu Rendong glanced at him: "Wipe your ass."

Lian Qiao: "???"

Before Lian Qiao had time to ask the 1 questions in his heart, the light in the glass room suddenly went out.His eyes couldn't adapt to the sudden darkness, Lian Qiao was pushed onto the chair by Xu Rendong in a daze, only to hear Xu Rendong's deep and melodious voice in the darkness:

"Sit down and trust me."

Full of aggression, Lian Qiao was so handsome that he couldn't close his legs at this sentence.

He suddenly felt that being beaten against the wall by the irritable and frenzied Xu Rendong seemed quite interesting!It's best to beat him until he has no strength to resist, and then treat him like this, turning him into a crying rag doll...

Wow!Feel it!

Wait, I seem to be starting to pervert in the other direction...

Of course Xu Rendong didn't know what indescribable things were in Lian Qiao's head at this moment.He walked to the center of the circle of chairs in the dark, feeling that everyone had already taken their seats, so he calmed down and began to tell his story.

"I am a financial practitioner. This job is very stressful. I have endless data and reports every day. Not only that, but my interpersonal relationship in the company is still very poor. I don't know how to communicate with my boss. I get along with colleagues, so I have been very depressed."

"My only sustenance is when I go to bed at night, I pray that I can have a good dream. In the dream, I am omnipotent. This pleasure of controlling everything balances the pain during the day."

"But even so, the burden of life gradually overwhelmed me. The negative energy in my heart accumulated more and more, and I had to find something else to vent."

"I started looking at all kinds of violent pictures. Murders, car accident scenes, natural disasters... I was excited by the broken human body. The bones were white, the fat was orange-yellow, and it looked slimy and slippery. The blood vessels were different in thickness. , but they are very fragile, once they are broken, they will bleed out, if it is a carotid artery, the blood can be sprayed to the ceiling..."

Xu Rendong screened his memory and slowly described it.These detailed descriptions brought those fragmented human bodies before everyone's eyes, and everyone couldn't help but feel a chill, and at the same time began to doubt: Does this man really have such a hobby?Otherwise, how could he know so clearly?

No one would know that Xu Rendong's cognition of human body structure was all witnessed by his own eyes.He has even experienced what it feels like to have a carotid artery cut.

"... Gradually, I am no longer satisfied with the pictures and videos on the Internet. I really want to experience it myself, that exciting feeling."

"I bought a rabbit and it was very docile. But when I cut off its ears, its limbs kicked around and the rabbit fur flew all over the bathroom. I accidentally let it escape. It was bloody and messed up my living room at home. I managed to chase it down and put the scissors in its stomach."

"It taught me how to behave. In the future, when I buy frogs, chickens, and cats and dogs, I will tie them up first, so that they can't escape. But I still feel uncomfortable, scissors And kitchen knives are easy to blunt. Whether it is to use a whetstone or buy a new tool, it is very troublesome."

"If only my hand could become one with the blade. That's what I thought before I fell asleep."

Hearing this, someone took a breath of air, as if they had already guessed the direction of the story.Xu Rendong paused for a moment, let the fear brew in everyone's hearts, and then said with a smile in a slightly excited tone:

"After falling into the dream, my wish came true."

"In my dream, my hands were turned into razors. They were so sharp, and they glowed coldly in the moonlight. I admired these new 'hands' to my heart's content, and tried to cut my arm, and the blood immediately out."

"I know it's a dream, and I know I'm omnipotent in my dream, so it's not surprising. I walk the streets at night. As I walk, I come to a strange place. I see The boss is having fun with a woman in his arms. Upon closer inspection, the woman is actually a popular actress."

"This is the world of dreams. It seems that the boss is also having a dream."

"Since it's in a dream, it doesn't matter what I do to him. So, I stabbed my finger—that is, the razor—into his body slowly. He let out an ugly cry like killing a pig. The neck asked me why, asked me why I was here, and at the same time his blood spurted to the ceiling... As I said before, the pressure on the carotid artery is very high, even if you cover the wound with your hands, the blood will flow from between your fingers It sprayed out, sprayed very high..."

"He wants to escape, and I want him to escape. I like the feeling of chasing prey-because I thought so, an elevator appeared in front of him. It was silver and white, and the elevator door was open. He was covered in blood, He staggered and rushed in. While pressing the door close button, he looked at me in horror. His expression at that time, what should I say?"

Xu Rendong licked his lips very much, and said in a tone of enjoyment and joy: "When the elevator door was about to close, but I forcefully pried it open with a razor, his expression was really funny."

This description of the murder of the boss sent chills down everyone's backs.If you hadn't done it, how could you know so clearly?

Everyone—even Zhong Xiu and Lian Qiao—can't help but wonder: Is this a story or the truth?

In the darkness, Xu Rendong gently stroked his neck, recalling the feeling when Jiang Li pierced his artery and trachea with a knife.Unconsciously, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"...looking at the mangled corpse of my boss, I felt very relieved, all the stress was swept away. I woke up satisfied, and I went to work with energy. The strange thing is that my boss is late today. The one who always likes The guy who deducted my perfect attendance award did not show up until noon. In the afternoon, a few policemen came to the company suddenly and said that they would invite some people back to assist in the investigation. Only then did everyone know that the boss died last night."

"The boss's death was exactly the same as in my dream. At two o'clock in the morning, he was stabbed to death in his sleep. The murderer stabbed him more than a dozen times with a sharp knife, and every time he stabbed him The most terrifying thing was the knife on the neck, which pierced the carotid artery and trachea, and blood sprayed everywhere."

"The strange thing is that there was no trace of the murderer left at the scene."

"There are no fingerprints, no footprints, and even no clue what the murder weapon is. There are no signs of damage to the door locks and windows. The police suspected that an acquaintance committed the crime, but after some investigations, everyone was cleared of suspicion."

"It stands to reason that with such a large amount of bleeding, the murderer should be splashed with blood when he committed the crime. When he left, he would leave traces in the corridor to some extent. But no, there was nothing. The murderer evaporated like water droplets There is no trace left."

"All afternoon, my colleagues were discussing this murder case. The familiar boss was brutally murdered in such a bloody way, which made everyone feel both scared and excited. I also pretended to be scared, mixed among them, and listened to their various opinions about the case. Speculation. I couldn’t stop laughing until I got home from work.”

"It turns out that I can really enter other people's dreams."

"It turns out that if you kill them in your dream, you will die in reality."

When Xu Rendong said this, he suddenly stopped.Everyone listened intently with bated breath, not knowing what terrible words he was going to say next.

However, Xu Rendong just smiled, and said briskly: "From now on, I have become a gentle and kind person. I no longer need to buy small animals."

As soon as the voice fell, there was only a "click", and the electric lights in the glass room turned on.

Everyone was startled by the sudden light.Someone tremblingly said: "Who, who turned on the light?"

Xu Rendong said: "No one, it opened by itself." He lowered his head and glanced at his legs, there were no traces of freezing.It seemed the story was scary enough and he made it through.

Everyone's faces were pale, and they looked at each other, seeing fear and suspicion on each other's faces.

President Little Sun couldn't help but said: "The story you just told...why is it a bit like "A Nightmare on Elm Street"? Murder in a dream or something..."

Xu Rendong narrowed his eyes: "You mean I plagiarized?"

The president's face still had the scars from his violent beating just now. Seeing Xu Rendong picked up the chair and walked towards him again, the president hurriedly begged for mercy: "No, no, I didn't mean you plagiarized..."

Xu Rendong put down his chair in satisfaction, and suddenly noticed that everyone was looking at him with panicked eyes.

The rock monk said deeply: "So you are a murderer."

Xu Rendong "..." You are too straightforward.He defended himself nicely, "No, it's just a story."

Rock Monk: "Really? I don't believe it."

Xu Rendong pointed to the president with a face full of bruises, and said very sincerely: "I just beat up this man in front of you, which fully proves that I am not a gentle and kind person, so it can be seen that I am not the murderer in the story .do you understand?"

Everyone: "..." Your inference is really well-founded and convincing!

When Lian Qiao heard this, the expression on his face was very complicated.

To be honest, he thinks that Xu Rendong is indeed gentle and kind in real life, but he occasionally becomes violent when playing dungeons... He used to think that this was the unique personality charm of the boss Rendong, but now that he thinks about it, this is not fucking good. Is it a typical perverted killer?Usually pretending to be harmless to humans and animals, but in an unnatural environment, let yourself go!

Lian Qiao couldn't help shivering, thinking: I'm in love with something!

After the story was told, nothing changed in the glass room.Everyone waited for a while and decided to go to rest first.

When they went downstairs, everyone deliberately kept a distance from Xu Rendong, only Lian Qiao and Zhong Xiu followed him.Xu Rendong deliberately said "good night, sweet dreams" before everyone went back to the room. When everyone heard this, their expressions became even uglier, and they quickly closed the door, so as not to be out of sight.

Back in her room and closing the door, Zhong Xiu sighed, "Why do you point all the blame at yourself?"

Xu Rendong was helpless: "It's just a story, really. Didn't you listen to the president, I copied the setting of "A Nightmare on Elm Street"."

Zhong Xiu shook her head: "I'm not talking about that. Not only this story, but also your attitude towards the president. If you do something as soon as you come up, everyone's impression of you will be bad. They will think you are rude and reckless, and they can't talk to you. Cooperate. In this way, you will become the target of public criticism, and when something happens, everyone will be the first to push you out and sacrifice you."

Xu Rendong hadn't opened his mouth yet, but Lian Qiao said displeasedly: "Lorry is so talkative, like an old lady."

Hearing this, Xu Rendong and Zhong Xiu looked at him in unison, a trace of astonishment flashed in their eyes.Lian Qiao was puzzled: "Why, did I say something wrong?"

Xu Rendong coughed unnaturally: "No...no." He quickly realized that it was inappropriate to say anything at the moment, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Go to rest early, I'm tired."

"Yeah." Zhong Xiu grabbed the towel, "I'm going to wash my face."

She slammed the bathroom door, leaving the room to Honeysuckle and Joe.Liandong's heart skipped a beat, thinking why this woman is so unkind.

Sure enough, Lian Qiao faintly asked, "Brother Liandong, are you an Oedipus?"

Xu Rendong's forehead was bulging with blue veins: "What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't you promise me not to be jealous?"

With a creak, the bed next to him was lowered, and Lian Qiao crawled to his side and put his head in front of him: "No, I can't help it. Unless you kiss me to soothe my wounded heart."

... This is not jealous, it is clearly taking advantage of the fire.Xu Rendong had no choice but to lift his chin, and pressed a light kiss on his lips.

"Okay, let's go to sleep." Xu Rendong blushed, pulled back the quilt and wanted to lie down.

"No, it's too perfunctory!" Lian Qiao pressed up and wrapped him in the quilt.Xu Liandong was so bound that he couldn't move, he just felt that he had turned into a silkworm chrysalis, and the cocoon was forcibly broken by someone before he could complete his transformation.The body is still trapped in the cocoon, but the head sticks out, restless and helpless.

"Don't make trouble..." Xu Rendong struggled, but Lian Qiao still pressed tightly.He was so overwhelmed that he was suddenly a little scared, but also inexplicably looking forward to it.

As for what he was expecting, he couldn't tell.

"Don't be afraid, I won't act recklessly." Lian Qiao poked his blushing cheeks, the smiles in his eyes smudged, "Let me show you what a 'soothing kiss' is, okay?"

"..." Xu Rendong felt the blood all over his body rushing to his cheeks, which made him feel at a loss.He felt like he had a fever, his head was dizzy, his body was limp, and he couldn't use any strength.He just nodded his head dizzily.

At this time, Xu Rendong was obedient and soft, and Lian Qiao loved him terribly.The warm and dry fingertips rubbed against the corner of his mouth a few times, as if looking for a suitable position, and finally settled on his lips.

After that, there was a kiss as gentle as spring water.

Xu Rendong was immersed in this tenderness that was almost drowning, and thought in a daze: So he also likes to touch his lips before kissing... Where did he learn this habit...

next second.

"I've finished washing, do you want to..." Zhong Xiu opened the door and saw two people piled up on top of each other.Before she could react, she only heard a muffled hum——

With great effort, Xu Rendong kicked Lian Qiao off the bed again.

"..." No matter how dull Zhong Xiu was, she understood what happened just now. She touched her nose in embarrassment, and retreated to the bathroom, "I forgot to brush my teeth."

Close the door again, and lock it thoughtfully!

Xu Rendong sat on the bed and held his forehead, how could he be bumped into every time, so that he had to kick Lian Qiao out of bed... He felt a little embarrassed.

Lian Qiao propped himself up on the edge of the bed, and said quietly: "Do you know where you kicked just now..."

Xu Rendong: "?"

Lian Qiao: "It was almost broken. If you can't use it in the future, you will regret it."

Xu Rendong: "???"

Um?The ____ does not work?What doesn't work?Aren't these hands and feet all good?Where did it go?
