Be a boss in an escape game

The conversation with Agata ended like this. After leaving the deck, Bai Leshui went to the restaurant to eat, then brought Rong Zheng dinner, and finally came to Duan Yan's room.

This is the first time he entered Duan Yan's house, and the interior decoration is no different from his own sea view room. Duan Yan watched Bai Leshui close the door, threw the key to him, and asked, "How is it, that woman What did I talk to you about?"

"A lot." Bai Leshui went to the chair and sat down, looking at the sea outside the window, "She seems to know a little about me, about the murder case."

"Oh." Duan Yan was not surprised, "Come on, let's exchange information." Then he told Bai Leshui the news he overheard outside the cockpit, and Bai Leshui told Agata what he said at night Simply repeat it.

After exchanging information, the two looked at each other, and Bai Leshui said in a low voice: "This ship needs a new captain, and Agata doesn't want to be the captain, so...she intends to let McPhail take over?"

Duan Yan rested his chin in his hand and pondered: "Why? You shouldn't be looking for a prisoner if you're looking for anyone."

"It's related to McPhail's identity?" Bai Leshui guessed, "We'll find out after two more executions. If McPhail can really become the captain, will it be beneficial to us?"

Duan Yan laughed out loud: "It's more than beneficial, he's the boss of this ship." After speaking, he shrugged and leaned back in his chair: "It's a pity that before the results come out, everything is guesswork, and we can't do anything."

"That's true." Bai Leshui took out the list and said, "A lot of people were eliminated today, and many of them didn't come out of the maze. Now there are only 20 prisoners left. Among them, there are nine confirmed players. Among the prison guards... one person."

"Tomorrow is the circus, what do you plan to do?" Duan Yan asked.

Bai Leshui shook his head: "I haven't had a chance to take a look. I don't even know what the door looks like."

"I asked a prison guard, they are a circus today." Duan Yan said, "The performers are the prisoners, and we are the audience."

"So, we are actually in the same space." Bai Leshui said, "This is a good opportunity to make a move."

"Who will attack whom?" Duan Yan asked back.

Bai Leshui pursed his lips slightly, and then asked, "Have you passed the CD that summoned the two of them?"

"There are still sixteen hours left, tomorrow night will be enough." Duan Yan said.

Bai Leshui looked down at the itinerary and remained silent.

Then discuss it with them tomorrow night.The timing was actually just right.

At nine o'clock the next morning, Bai Leshui took people to today's execution site as usual.The circus is located on the bottom floor of the cruise ship, and inside the cruise ship, even if you haven't entered Bai Leshui, you know that it must be extremely dark inside, completely relying on electric lights for lighting.

Originally, the circus didn't need much light, so it didn't matter.

This time, a young man who looked like a high school student was guarding the door, his pale face was bloodless, and there were clear dark circles under his dull eyes. Is it a team? The number of participants is 32, please, please enter."

"32?" Bai Leshui asked, "Is this including us prison guards?"

"Yes, yes. I'm sorry, but the circus needs an audience to run." The boy stammered.

Although there are no prisoners to manage under his command, the prison guard Alan who came over counted a few people, and said with wide eyes, "Hey? Is there nothing to do with me?"

"No, no, you don't have a door or a ticket." The boy looked at Alan's sturdy body and tremblingly said.

Allen: "What if I have to go in?"

The young man muttered in a low voice: "Then I can only ask the executioner to reason with you." A trace of cruelty flashed in his lowered eyes. "When you die at that time, don't regret it."

Alan thought of the inhuman appearance of the executioner, and quickly shook his head: "Forget it." He looked sideways at Yan Li, and said helplessly, "I can't accompany you in, you must come out."

Yan Li smiled generously at him, Alan blushed slightly, and walked away with a hey smile.

"Then please, invite the performers to come in first. Get, take your own program card." The young man took out a bunch of wooden signs from his pocket, "Number one."

Bai Leshui looked at Rong Zheng, Rong Zheng walked in with his left hand in his pocket, took the wooden sign with his right hand, saw the words [17 Motorcycle] on it, and asked, "What is 17?"

"Sequence number of the performance." The boy replied, "Press, according to the smooth, perform."

"Is motorcycle speed a show to be performed?" Rong Zheng asked, "As long as the performance is done?"

"The principal is inside, you can ask him for details." The young man muttered, holding the wooden sign in his hand, and continued to shout, "Next, next."

Yan Li pulled Anna forward, and the two received their badges. Seeing the same word [Silk Hang], Anna smiled shyly: "We are partners."

"Maybe." Yan Li replied, and entered the circus with Anna.

After all the prisoners had received their own wooden cards, the prison guards were allowed to enter, and then each of them also received a 'ticket' with their seat number written on it.

It looks pretty mediocre.

The indoor circus is a semi-circular building. The round platform at the front is the exhibition platform, and the seats are placed in an arched shape around the platform at the back. There are only [-] seats in total, which seem to be prepared in advance.

Bai Leshui glanced at his seat number, then at the position, and then sat on the chair in front.

The distance between this position and the stage is no more than ten meters.Moreover, there is no so-called safety net between the stage and the auditorium.

Well, it seems that it is quite easy for prisoners to kill prison guards.

But where did the prisoners go?Why didn't you see it after you came in?

After Rong Zheng came in, he was led to the back of the stage by a chubby man in a clown costume. It was a large room with a lot of props and sundries, and there was a small door at the end of the room, which was ajar. , Rong Zheng couldn't see what was going on inside, but he heard the panting of the beast.

This is a circus, and it's normal to have wild animals.It's just... Recalling the stage layout I saw just now, this performance can be described as quite dangerous, whether it is for prisoners or prison guards.

Or have these beasts been trained long ago to only chase prisoners, not prison guards?

Rong Zheng saw that all the prisoners like him were brought in. The chubby man counted them and found that they were all there. He clapped his hands with satisfaction and said loudly: "Hello, my employees, I am very glad to see you standing Here, there is no lack of one neatly."

Someone behind whispered something, the voice was too low for Rong Zheng to hear.

"In half an hour, our performance is about to start. Of course, the audience is already seated. We want to present them with the best performance." The smile on the fat man's white-painted face faded into Ferociously, "Of course, use your screams and blood."

No one spoke, everyone knew what the ultimate purpose of coming here was, and they had gone through two baptisms, so they wouldn't make any fuss.

"If you can finish the performance well, it doesn't matter even if you don't shed blood. I forgive all the good kids who work hard. As for those who don't work hard..." The fat man reached out and took out a chainsaw, "I will let You guys are doing a good job, hahahaha."

"Now I'm going to announce the rules. Remember, everyone's performance can't be less than 15 minutes at a time. During this time, you must appear in front of the audience, let them see your performance, and step off the stage after 15 minutes. , and continue after an hour break. Our circus will be open all day until it closes at [-]:[-] pm. You can play one by one, or all at once, but you can’t stop once you start. They must all come in order, except for the dead one that can be eliminated from the sequence."

Yan Li's eyes widened: "So we have to go up and perform at least six or seven times a day?"

"You can reduce the number of times. If you persist on stage for 10 minutes, then you can rest for two hours when you come off. My requirements for employees are very loose. However, there must be someone performing on stage. In the performance, our performance cannot be stopped, if there is no one performing, I will arrest people."

"Now, go find your performance props and think about how to perform. There are still 10 minutes left, come on guys." The fat man smiled and walked to the front desk, "During this time, I will go to the stage to tell the guests A little joke, to warm up the scene for you."

Watching the man leave, Yan Li sat on the ground and lamented: "It will be difficult to survive this time."

"Why?" Anna asked.The others also looked at Yan Li.

Yan Li said: "There are eight hours until six in the afternoon, at least five or six games, 15 minutes each time. No matter how you think about it, it's hard to survive."

Anna looked at Yan Li with green eyes.

Yan Li's words are too meaningless, anyone who is not stupid knows it, but he didn't explain the real danger in detail, but some people have thought of it, including Rong Zheng.

The hardest part of this level is whether the prisoners can cooperate with each other.

Circus performances must be performed according to the number. If the previous one fails to go up, the latter one will not be able to appear on the stage.This doesn't matter, if possible, everyone wants to stay in the safe rear, and they are willing to not play for a day.The problem is that the prisoners can play together, and that the stage cannot be left empty.

For example, if you come one by one, number 1 can take a break for an hour after performing on stage for 15 minutes, then number 15 will come on stage, and number 1 will come on stage again after 1 minutes.Then the time for No. 6 to go up is half an hour after the opening, and the first half hour is a free rest time.But because the rules allow to perform together, there is another possibility. No. [-] will come on stage after [-] minute, and then No. [-] will go up immediately after [-] or [-] minutes, and No. [-] will have to perform on stage after both of them finish their performance.The free rest time is greatly reduced.

Therefore, it can be inferred that the lower the number, the more favorable it is.

Calculated according to the first method, the people in front are all performing in order, and if no one is eliminated, then it will be Rong Zheng's turn four hours later.

Once the performance started, it couldn't be stopped. During the four hours, the first person to perform on stage appeared every hour. By the time Rong Zheng came on stage, he had already performed three times.

Will the top-ranked prisoners be balanced?Will they be willing to honestly spare 15 minutes for the people behind to accumulate enjoyment?

No, while going on stage early, I will deliberately stay on stage for a longer period of time.After half an hour on stage, you can get a two-hour break, and if you stay 45 minutes, you can get a three-hour break.If No. 15 redeems a three-hour break at one time, will the people behind him redeem it together, or leave after [-] minutes?

If No. 1 has a three-hour break and No. 2 has only one hour. After one hour, it stands to reason that No. 2 should play, but No. 1's rest time has not ended and refuses to go up. Then what should No. 2 do? ?If you go up, you violate the sorting requirements, if you don't go up, you violate the rules, and both sides are blocked.

Only No. 2 violated the rules, not No. 1, so only No. 2 was dragged away and punished.Unless he kills No. 1, he can play.

If everyone has exchanged for three hours, the stage will definitely be empty for such a long break, and when the fat man comes to arrest people on stage, it is estimated that all the members will be on stage.

This set of rules has been a pitfall among prisoners from the very beginning. If no one is willing to dedicate themselves or even cooperate, there is no solution to this problem.And as the heinous prisoners who came out of No. 13 prison, what they deserve is only to hurt others, not self-sacrifice.

After thinking about it, Rong Zheng expressed his satisfaction, he likes this level.

Rong Zheng: I like cheating people.
