Being targeted by the boss of the escape game
Chapter 39 Candles
Except for the lobby on the first floor of this farmhouse hotel, the rooms where the players live have no power supply, and the lighting at night depends on that weird candle.
After the two finished washing, Chu Ling shook the quilt, sat on the edge of the bed and said depressedly: "I'm still a little scared."
Lu Weixing wiped the drops of water from his hair: "What are you afraid of?"
Chu Ling said: "I'm afraid I will suffocate myself tonight... Suffocating myself in sleep is too stupid a way to die."
Lu Weixing smiled: "Let's try without lighting candles tonight."
"OK then."
Lu Weixing went to bed after cleaning his hair, hugged Chu Ling with one hand, leaned close to his side, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The room was dark, and through the moonlight outside the window, Chu Ling could see Lu Weixing's jet-black hair hanging by his ears, three-dimensional facial features, deep eyebrows and eyes, and the clear moonlight weakened some of his vigor, making him He looks a lot gentler.
Of course, Chu Ling knew that Lu Weixing had always been gentle to him.
Chu Ling lowered her eyelashes and hummed softly. Although she didn't have that strange light fragrance as an aid, she still closed her eyes with peace of mind when she thought that Lu Weixing was sleeping next to her. The smell of the shower gel that came fell asleep quickly, and I slept until dawn.
The golden sunlight slanted in from the windows, and the cross frame of the window divided the sunlight into patches of mottled light and shadow, covering people with a hint of warmth.
Chu Ling rubbed her eyes, and saw that Lu Weixing looked as if he had woken up a long time ago, and he had already washed and sat on the bedside: "Good morning."
Lu Weixing pinched Chu Ling's face, and said with a smile, "It's getting late, let's sleep in the sun and bask in our ass."
Chu Ling slapped Lu Weixing's rebellious paws away, stretched her waist, got up from the bed, and went to the toilet to wash up.
The two of them dressed and went downstairs to the lobby, where porridge and biscuits were already set on the table as usual.It's just that the atmosphere is not right, it's very strange that only a few people are sitting in front of the table to eat.
The two teams who chose to drink only porridge like them yesterday sat aside, looking at the people and food on the opposite table with silent faces.
Chu Ling keenly felt that something was wrong. He walked over and asked, "Sister Caiyun, what's the matter with you? Are you not eating?"
Wei Caiyun patted the daughter in her arms, sighed but did not speak, and Duo Duo in her arms spoke first: "Big brother, we can't eat."
"what?"
Chu Ling was stunned when she heard this sentence, what does it mean that she can't eat?
Lu Weixing frowned when he heard the words, and went straight to the table, just about to reach out to serve the porridge, but found that he couldn't make this movement, as if there was an invisible force restricting his behavior.
Lu Weixing walked back with a serious face, looked at the family of three, then at the team next to him, and suddenly thought of a very bad possibility.
Chu Ling also tried it in the past and found the same.
Chu Ling was surprised: "How could this be?"
Lu Weixing said in a deep voice, "Did you all light candles yesterday?"
Wei Caiyun nodded: "After listening to your reminders yesterday, I didn't light candles."
The team next to them first introduced themselves, one was Guan Ke and the other was Wang Yufei.
Wang Yufei said: "We didn't order yesterday either."
Lu Weixing was silent for a while, and finally said: "It seems that we can't eat at night without lighting candles."
Lu Chen looked coldly at the people on the opposite table who were eating well, and snorted, "All those people ordered? Why didn't any of them die?"
Chu Ling also looked over, and suddenly he realized that the number of people was wrong, there were fewer people, and the total number of people present was only eleven.
Chu Ling nodded her finger and said, "Hmm...it seems that the number is wrong. I counted and we only have eleven. If you exclude the person who disappeared yesterday, shouldn't there be twelve?"
When the others heard this, they quickly looked over and found that the number was wrong. There were only four people eating, and one was missing.
Wang Yufei walked over and said, "Which of your teammates disappeared? Or didn't they come down?"
A short-haired girl just finished her porridge, wiped her mouth and said, "My boyfriend is sleeping on it, what's the matter?"
Chu Ling remembered that this was a couple, the girl was named Xiaowen, and the boy was named Xiaohan.
Wei Caiyun said: "It's so late, why don't you wake up? Girl, aren't you worried?"
Xiaowen scratched his head: "Then there is nothing to worry about, just sleep in."
Wei Caiyun softly said: "Girl, this is a copy, why don't you go and have a look."
Chu Ling also said: "Yes, we suspect that something may have happened to your boyfriend."
Xiaowen said: "If there is anything, forget it, let me go and have a look, and bring him breakfast by the way."
Speaking of breakfast, they didn't even have a mouthful of porridge today. Lu Weixing pointed to the porridge in Xiaowen's bowl: "Can you bring me a bowl of porridge?"
Xiaowen was stunned for a moment, then blushed, and stammered: "Although...you are pretty...but I, I already have a boyfriend, and we are going to get married soon... ...I am a......"
Lu Weixing interrupted: "I also have a boyfriend, but none of us can eat, only you can eat, so I want you to try."
Guan Ke, Wang Yufei and a family of three also demonstrated in front of Xiaowen.
The four people who were eating well were all stunned, and they all looked at them dumbfounded.
One of them murmured, "Are you guys playing a collective prank?"
Lu Weixing: "We are not so naive."
"Is there such a thing?"
Xiaowen tentatively picked up a bowl of porridge, and just about to pass it to Lu Weixing, he found that she seemed to be imprisoned by an invisible force, and she couldn't pass it no matter what.
"Fuck, it turns out to be true."
"Then why can we eat?"
Chu Ling touched her nose and said, "Did you all sleep with candles last night?"
Someone responded: "Yes, that candle is quite useful."
"What's the matter with the candle, what's wrong with the candle?"
Chu Ling: "We didn't light any candles yesterday."
Xiaowen was surprised: "What does this have to do with candles? This is too strange."
Wei Caiyun nodded: "It's a bit strange, so we are worried about your boyfriend, little girl."
Xiaowen: "What can I do, just light a candle."
Chu Ling said, "How about we go up and have a look?"
"Okay, okay." Xiaowen bit a biscuit in his mouth, stood up and walked upstairs with two in his hand, muttering, "I don't know what it has to do with candles, what can it be? Not just sleeping in."
The others also stood up and followed behind Xiaowen.
Xiaowen took a bite of the biscuits, and looked at the people behind him strangely: "The man is sleeping, so many of you come to see it? What's so interesting about it?"
The couple lived on the second floor. When they went up the stairs and turned a corner, they found the fourth room on the second floor.
"Damn, he's too lazy to die when he's outside. He spends three days every day and still doesn't get up. I didn't expect to be like this in the dungeon."
As Xiaowen spoke, he pushed open the door, and several people followed him in.
The rooms on the second floor are all double rooms, which are a little smaller than theirs. As soon as Chu Ling entered the room, he saw a man lying on the double bed.
Xiaowen rushed over like a gust of wind: "My husband, wake up, look at so many people, are you ashamed?"
Chu Ling turned around and found the candle on the table, which was in the same shape as a red apple. Looking at the wax oil on the table, they should have slept with the candle last night. Only used less than a quarter.
Chu Ling pointed to the candle: "Did you sleep with candles last night?"
"Yes, the candle is very fragrant and has the effect of helping sleep. I used it to sleep until dawn." Xiaowen replied without looking back, and continued to shake the man on the bed, "Honey, wake up, Don't sleep!"
"Honey, there are so many people looking at you, wake up quickly!"
"Husband? Husband, husband, husband..."
"Husband!! Ahhhhhhhh!!!"
Everyone in the room heard a sharp scream and hurriedly surrounded it.
I saw Xiaowen's face was pale, watching the people on the bed bursting into tears, a feeling of despair rushed into her heart like a frenzy, she trembled her lips: "He...he is dead... .out of breath..."
Surprised, Chu Ling immediately stepped forward to push aside the crowd, went over to check his nose, and sure enough he was not breathing.
"died."
Gentle sunlight penetrated the window and slowly shone into the room. The man on the bed had a serene and handsome face, with a bit of toughness unique to northern men, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
It seemed that he was really just asleep, but everyone knew that the person on the bed was dead.
Xiaowen's roaring cries echoed in the room.
Everyone left Xiaowen's room one after another, and returned to the lobby on the first floor. Now a bright fact was presented to everyone, that is, if you want to eat, you need to light candles, but there is a certain chance that you will die at night when you light candles.
Everyone looked dignified, and the lobby fell into a strange silence for a while.
Someone said angrily, "Why don't you throw that candle away!"
"Throw it away? Can you still go without food for seven days?"
"Then what should I do..."
"Mom, will Dodo starve to death...Mom..."
Wei Caiyun touched her daughter's face and said distressedly: "No, good Duoduo, mom won't let you starve to death."
The little girl hugged her mother's arm tightly and rubbed it together: "But Duo Duo is hungry...want to eat..."
Lu Chen said: "Go back to the room. I brought some of Duoduo's favorite snacks this time. Originally... it's fine. If you save some food, it should last you a few days."
Watching the family of three leave the lobby, the others also went back to their rooms.
Unable to eat, Chu Ling and Lu Weixing didn't plan to go out anymore. They planned to save their energy, so they followed them back to the room.
Chu Ling sat looking at the candles on the table, and sighed: "What's the matter if we are not allowed to eat, it is impossible that this level is to starve us to death, right?"
After the two finished washing, Chu Ling shook the quilt, sat on the edge of the bed and said depressedly: "I'm still a little scared."
Lu Weixing wiped the drops of water from his hair: "What are you afraid of?"
Chu Ling said: "I'm afraid I will suffocate myself tonight... Suffocating myself in sleep is too stupid a way to die."
