[Infinite] End Game

"I know, it hit my door too." Tang Yu calmly pulled his sleeve back from Li Qi's hand.

"Ah?" Li Qi asked in a daze: "...Then, what should we do?"

"What should I do?" Tang Yu glanced at him, "Aren't you alive and well?"

Li Qi obviously didn't expect to get this answer. He was stunned for a second before weeping and trying to argue: "Boss, I survived by pretending to be dead yesterday, but who knows if this trick will work tomorrow?" Yeah, didn’t those workers say yesterday that someone died?”

"It should be fine." Tang Yu got off the bed, walked to the bed and put on his shoes.

When Tang Yu and Li Qi were talking, Liang Shan sat at the end of the bed and stared at the wall in a daze. His long legs spread apart and landed on the ground, as if he didn't care about their conversation at all, but when Tang Yu moved, His eyes followed up again.

Tang Yu paused, and then said to Li Qi: "Last night, there was such a loud knock on the door that no one could really fall asleep, but there was no sound in all the rooms, which means that 'playing dead' can indeed avoid that thing... …and, I always feel, it's looking for something."

"Looking for... what?" Li Qi still had lingering fears.Even if pretending to be asleep is easy to use, but in the middle of the night, something is standing by your bed with a pickaxe and staring at your face. This kind of scene is scary enough if you think about it. Is it cold?

"I don't know." Tang Yu shook his head, "Ask someone."

I should find someone to ask, but who?

Some not-so-good guesses suddenly arose in Li Qi's mind, but before he could ask, Tang Yu had already patted his clothes and followed the people who were going to have breakfast to go out.

A few seconds later, seeing that Liang Shan didn't know how to keep up, Tang Yu had no choice but to turn back and give him a hand. The awkwardness in the morning was also forgotten by him.

Li Qi also hurriedly followed, sat next to Tang Yu as usual after finishing the meal, secretly took a peek at Tang Yu while drinking porridge, secretly guessing the big brother's action plan, absent-mindedly, and the third brother and Liang Shan who were only eating Formed a stark contrast.

"...By the way, third brother, can you follow me for a while and do me a favor?" Tang Yu looked between the two people who were buried in eating, and finally landed on the one who looked bigger, and asked.

"Okay, no problem." The third brother showed his white teeth, and readily agreed without asking what he was busy with.

Liang Shan raised his eyes when he heard the words, his eating slowed down, and finally he didn't move his chopsticks at all, but because there was nothing left in the bowl, and the man was quiet and didn't speak, Tang Yu didn't notice This is unusual.

Li Qiyi touched his mouth, raised his head and asked, "Boss, what am I doing?"

"Let's split up, try to chat with other people, ask as many people as possible, and see if you can find out what happened to this mine before." Tang Yu said: "Also, ask who died yesterday morning, How did you die?"

Li Qi nodded repeatedly, expressing that he would try his best, but soon, he came to his senses and asked cautiously: "Boss, what are you doing?"

"I'm looking for someone too." Tang Yu smiled at him, and as soon as he handed over the bowls and chopsticks, he dragged Liang Shan to follow the team of workers, just behind a group of people.Li Qi recognized at a glance that the one who was chatting and laughing with others was the miner who was in the same mine with him yesterday and had an argument with them again in the evening, recalling Tang Yu's smile just now, he was inexplicable for some reason shuddered.

There are guards patrolling the mining area, and the foreman and supervisors will also count the number of people who go to work every day.Tang Yu and Liang Shan were still assigned to the unmanned mine road yesterday. When pushing the cart into the mine, Tang Yu took a special look and found that the atmosphere between the two groups of male and female players had changed.

The male player has become more domineering, and the female player is no longer the pride of the first day. She is talking next to the man, sometimes being touched, and her smile is still flattering.

And the remaining three groups of female players all clenched their molars, and the lazy players all had gloomy faces.

After all, the foreman made it clear before the start of work that those who failed to complete the task were not allowed to eat, and no one dared to resist under the threat of the supervisors with sticks and whips.

Because it is a private mine, everyone has a very heavy workload.

The rest time in a day is only half an hour for lunch. For the rest of the time, the miners have to stay in the narrow mine to continue working, and supervisors and foremen come down from time to time to make inspections.

In short, in such a situation, it is not easy to talk to someone who is unwilling to cooperate.

However, as long as you think about it, there are still ways.

Until Liu Changyou was dragged into the mine with his mouth covered, he didn't understand how he would encounter such a thing just to go to the toilet.

He opened his mouth wide to call for help, but his throat was tightly strangled by a pair of iron clamp-like hands, and he couldn't even make a sound.

In the long and dark mine, being pushed against the hard rock wall, fear flooded his brain like a tide and washed his delicate nerves, but when he opened his eyes desperately, he finally saw the appearance of the two people in front of him clearly. , Fear suddenly turned into anger.

Liu Changyou: "No no no no no no no!!!"

Tang Yu stood aside and smiled: "I'm sorry, brother, just ask something."

Liu Changyou was still struggling, but after hearing Tang Yu's words, he immediately understood the reason for their visit.Not only did he lose his strength in struggling, but he also nodded repeatedly to express his willingness to cooperate, but the way his eyes rolled was obviously holding back some bad water.

Tang Yu knew what he was thinking.

Holding the lantern, he took a step forward, leaned close to Liu Changyou's ear, and said slowly: "This mine is empty, and the sound transmission effect is very good. You can call people loudly, and you can call your workers, supervisors and foremen." ...It's just, do you think, if the supervisor knows that you are spreading the news of the dead people in the mine and the ghosts in the mine, do you think you can live comfortably?"

The miner did not speak.

"We have no other intentions, we just don't want to die in an unclear way. It's up to you to decide what to do." Tang Yu's expression seemed a little unpredictable in the light and shadow. After he finished speaking, he motioned for the third brother to people let go.

Not knowing if he was poked at a sore spot, Liu Changyou didn't yell loudly after being released, but just touched his neck that was stuck in pain, and after a moment of silence, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Tell me, what do you want to know?"

"How long has it been since this mine was built?" Tang Yu smiled with satisfaction, sorted out his thoughts, and began to ask.

Liu Changyou: "Two years."

Tang Yu asked again: "Then how long have you been working here?"

Liu Changyou looked at the shadows cast by the two on the stone wall: "It's been almost two years."

"Old man." Tang Yu was a little surprised, but more of a feeling that he had made the right bet, "Then, when did it start smashing the door in the middle of the night?"

A miner in his thirties, his face and hands are already very rough, and the heavy and mechanical work day after day still erodes his body. This long and winding mine road is like a grave, buried bit by bit he.

Liu Changyou gasped for a while with his mouth open, leaned against the stone wall, sighed after a long time, and recalled: "Our place is incomparable with the outside. Everyone eats this way, and it is not surprising that there are occasional accidents. All along, the mine has been peaceful...until half a year ago, a supervisor died here."
