Penitent hand, trembling slightly

Long-term living has made Shen Maomao develop the habit of thinking too much, so when Zhan Zhi said this, she couldn't help but think too much——

Is Zhan Zhi reminding her to go to bed early?What kind of position did he use to remind her?Can she trust him?

She looked into Zhan Zhi's eyes, and Zhan Zhi dodged shyly: "Then I'm leaving, you can come to me if you have any questions."

Shen Maomao had no choice but to say: "Please, I will."

Afterwards, she went to the toilet before turning off the lights. After thinking about it, she got into the quilt after she came back, planning to go to bed early.

Soon the lights in the entire carriage were turned off, and there was no way to continue playing poker. Several people nearby put the cards back into the packaging, and each quietly entered their own compartments, climbed to the top of the bed, and let out a burst of alarm. The sound of Xi Suo Suo.

After the surrounding quieted down, the distant voice became more obvious.A few people were still talking, it sounded like three men, and it seemed they were going to play with flashlights on for another two hours.

For modern people, it is indeed a bit early to go to bed now. Those who are lying on the bed at the moment may not all be sleeping. Most of them are still curled up in their respective quilts and playing with their mobile phones, but they still have to make noise when everyone is quiet. It's a little immoral.

But those three people are all men, even if someone is dissatisfied, I'm afraid they won't take the initiative to touch their bad luck, so the three of them fought recklessly.

Shen Maomao turned over on the bed, facing the wall of the cubicle, and closed his eyes again as the voices of "grab the landlord", "three belts and one" and "don't" echoed in his ears.

These three people were still some distance away from her, and the voices were not too harsh. She couldn't sleep because she hadn't reached the usual sleep point, and her biological clock didn't allow it.

Usually at this time she would lie in Lou Jingmo's arms and play games, but now she has no desire to play with her mobile phone.

Because she always felt that the "Farewell to mobile phones, sublimate yourself" said on the poster was an obvious reminder.

During the day, everyone was playing with their mobile phones, and there seemed to be no problem, but the day and night in the game are always two worlds, and Zhan Zhi also specially reminded her to go to bed early...

She felt that something was going to happen to the three poker players, but she was not sure. After all, they were playing poker, not mobile phones, which was different from the death flag she inferred.

With this in mind, Shen Mao Mao lay down for more than an hour and listened to them talk for an hour.The voice over there was louder and quieter, but it never stopped. The three big men were alive and well, and they could probably fight for another two or three hours.

Did she think too much?

As she thought about it, the sound of the train suddenly became much louder in an instant, not only completely covering the voices of the three men, but also making her ears numb and her head buzzing.

It should be in a tunnel, the sound of the train running will be reflected back by the walls of the tunnel, that's why it's so deafening.

Such a voice lasted for a long time, until Shen Maomao was almost used to it before stopping.

The world became quiet in an instant.Compared with the movement just now, the sound of the train running normally can be ignored.

Shen Maomao put down his hands covering his ears, his eyes stared at the upper bed board, and his mind went blank for a moment.

After coming out of the tunnel, something seems wrong...

She listened for two seconds, only to realize that the sound of the three people playing cards had disappeared since sometime!

Maybe they thought the tunnel was too loud and couldn't hear each other clearly, so they packed up and went to sleep?

Even though she thought so, there was still a chill gradually creeping into her heart, causing goosebumps to appear on her arms, and she couldn't help curling herself into a ball under the quilt to absorb the warmth from her body.

This is not right.She has been living for so long, and she will no longer experience such a chill due to supernatural phenomena.

But today, for some reason, she actually experienced this feeling of chills all over her body again...

I'm afraid something will happen tonight.

Maybe she should keep vigilant, and if it doesn't work, she can wait until the next day to catch up on sleep.

But as she thought about it, a feeling of drowsiness that she couldn't refuse suddenly came to her heart, she yawned uncontrollably, her eyelids became heavier and heavier... she soon lost consciousness.

……

It was not yet full light when I woke up again, but the train had already stopped.

Light came in from the drawn curtains, and the sounds of people walking, talking, and luggage rolling on the ground were transmitted into the car together.

Shen Maomao sat up in a jerk, almost knocking his head on the bed of the middle bunk.But she didn't pay attention to these, but immediately looked at Aunt Ning next door.

Aunt Ning is still sleeping.She maintained an upright posture, with her hands folded on her abdomen, her chest heaving together, and she seemed to be fine.

Only then did she feel relieved, and began to think about what happened last night - she didn't want to sleep at all! !Why are you so sleepy all of a sudden? !

The time displayed on the phone was 5:[-], only [-] minutes had passed since the parking time that Zhan Zhi said.

The entire No. [-] car is full of people from the "Paradise Island Tour Group", so no one should get on the car.

But for some reason, she always had a faint sense of crisis in her heart.

She sat in her seat for a while, not knowing why the sense of crisis was getting stronger and stronger, and when the door of the carriage not far away made a "creak", the anxiety reached its peak.

Shen Maomao hardly thought, and immediately followed his instinct to lie down.

Within two seconds, several consecutive footsteps passed under her feet, then gradually faded away, and then stopped abruptly.

A new passenger entered this carriage and did not leave.

Judging from the sound, it seemed that there were exactly three people, so she couldn't help but think about it.

She squinted her eyes, leaving a slit for herself to observe the situation, and clenched the Lou Jingmo brand dagger tightly in her hand, ready to fight to the death with the other party in case something happened.

But nothing happened. After 10 minutes, the train restarted and continued to travel north. Shen Maomao put his arms around his bag, as if he was hugging Lou Jingmo, and then let out a long sigh of relief.

Don't think about it, those three men are probably cold, but they don't know if they are players or npcs.

Players shouldn't be that stupid, right?

……

It was bright after six o'clock. Aunt Ning woke up, sat up rubbing her eyes, and whispered, "I don't know why I slept so soundly last night... I haven't slept for so long in a long time."

Shen Maomao yawned: "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"

Aunt Ning said: "I'm not hungry yet, you don't need to worry about me, if you're sleepy, just sleep a little longer."

Shen Maomao: "That's fine, you play by yourself first."

Aunt Ning smiled.

Shen Maomao squinted wearily for a while, but not for long, because there was a scream from the front of the carriage.

She was awakened again, knowing that something must have happened, she didn't bother to doze off, and told Aunt Ning to wait for her here, while she put on her shoes and ran out to see the situation.

A large group of people surrounded the front, blocking the road completely.

Shen Maomao stood on tiptoe at the outermost edge, listening to the female guide inside shouting "Don't watch" and "Give way".

It is the nature of human beings to watch the excitement. She shouted for a long time, but no one was willing to listen to her.

People were discussing and guessing what happened. Shen Maomao listened to it. The three men seemed to have died suddenly yesterday.

Zhan Zhi and two other male tour guides came to evacuate the crowd: "Please move and disperse, don't block the way of the flight attendants!"

Shen Maomao looked back, and saw that there was already a row of people behind him, all of them peering forward. Two men in flight attendants' clothes were blocked at the back, unable to squeeze in.

She was just about to call out for help, but she heard the female guide in front of her yelling angrily: "What's the use of all of you surrounded here? Are you all deaf? Can't understand people's words? Hurry up and tell them." Get out of the way! From the back, all back to their cubicles!! Don't make me say it a second time!"

Shen Maomao immediately led the way back to the cubicle.

The two flight attendants were able to move on, and Aunt Ning asked, "What's the matter? What happened?"

Shen Maomao said: "It seems to be dead. Last night, three men were playing cards after the lights were turned off. They seemed to have died suddenly this morning."

Before Aunt Ning could speak, the man on the upper bunk poked his head out and said, "I'm going? So exciting? Are all three dead?"

Shen Maomao: "I don't know."

The girl on the upper bunk of Shen Maomao also poked her head out: "What about the corpse... Now the car is still on the road, won't it stay here until the next stop?"

Shen Maomao still said he didn't know.

The girl felt bored, so she shrank her head back again.

The atmosphere in the carriage became tense. After such a big incident happened, the three tour guides followed up there, and no one cared about them and the group of tourists.

After a while, they seemed to have finished their negotiation. The two flight attendants left first, and took away the other two people who lived with the three men, but they did not take away the corpses.

When the flight attendant left, someone couldn't wait to ask: "What's going on? Is the corpse alone? We don't want to stay with the corpse, do we?"

The female guide said: "It is inconvenient to move the corpse. There are limited tools on the train, so it is impossible to determine the real cause of death of the corpse. The police are already waiting at the next station. Please stay calm."

"When is the next stop?"

Female guide: "Tomorrow morning."

Shen Maomao: "..." If those three people don't cheat their bodies tonight, I will take your surname.

Others were also quite dissatisfied with this result: "Then we have to be with the corpse all day? Who can bear it?"

The female guide said: "This kind of thing is not what we want to see. There is limited space on the train. There are too many of us and there is no place to move. We just need to get to the next stop. Please be considerate of each other and be patient first." a period of time."

Now that this is all said, those who have opinions are too embarrassed to say anything, so they can only ignore the corpse as much as possible and pretend that it does not exist.

The people in the first four compartments were taken away by the female guide to the dining car, and Zhan Zhi ran over to look for Shen Maomao.

Shen Maomao made a curious look: "What's going on? Did you see clearly in front?"

The people next to him also cast curious glances.

Zhan Zhi said: "Those three people seem to have food poisoning... I can't tell, it's quite strange."

Shen Maomao asked again: "Then why did the other two leave with the flight attendant? Is there another one?"

Zhan Zhi: "Those two didn't dare to sleep with the corpse, and the other one said he wasn't afraid and was too lazy to bother, so he stayed."

The girl on the upper bunk was shocked and said, "Isn't it? How courageous? What's his name? I need to get to know him."

Zhan Zhi said: "Hey, don't talk about this, it's a good journey, why did this kind of thing happen, how does this make our company go on in the future?"

Shen Maomao: "It has nothing to do with you."

"It doesn't matter if a sensible person knows, but most people are still confused... Sigh."

The whole morning passed with Zhan Zhi moaning.

Poker went from pastime to virus, and for a whole day nobody talked about playing poker anymore.The atmosphere in the carriage was very strange. People stopped talking and communicating, and only played with their mobile phones.

Shen Maomao was not idle either, and took Aunt Ning for a walk in another carriage.

The train has a total of thirteen sections. The seventh and eighth sections are soft berths, and the last five sections are hard seats.

The soft sleeper is also full of people, but there are not many people in the hard sleeper. At first glance, it is even more spacious than the hard sleeper.

It happened that she wanted to tell Aunt Ning about her discovery, so she found an empty seat in the last hard-seat car with her, and roughly explained her deduction.

Aunt Ning really didn't know about the scavenger.

Shen Maomao roughly explained to her, and then said: "After you go back, you can lend me that "A Midsummer Night's Dream". I want to find clues in it."

Aunt Ning agreed immediately.

From her mouth, Shen Maomao learned about her last dungeon.That dungeon was relatively simple, and there were a few old players in it. Aunt Ning had watched a few episodes of time-traveling TV series and thought she had time-traveled too. The other players saw that she was old and new, so naturally they wouldn't bother to win her over, so she just A person lives normally in the dungeon, eats and sleeps, and one day finds a white light appearing beside him, and reaches out to touch it out of curiosity, so he leaves the dungeon.

After listening to her explanation, tears fell from Shen Maomao's eyes.

What kind of peerless European emperor is this? ? ?

Are they playing a game?

Aunt Ning said: "I've been lucky since I was a child, but it's a pity..." At this point, she paused for a while and didn't continue, leaving only a long sigh: "Oh, everyone has their own life, if the dungeon is too dangerous , leave me alone, you are a good boy, you still have a long way to go..."

Shen Maomao: "Don't say such frustrating words! Although I am very good, I will do my best to take you out. You can continue to use your European emperor's advantages and leave it to me to solve the dungeon puzzle." Do!"

Aunt Ning: "What is the Emperor Ou?"

Shen Maomao: "It's just to praise you for being lucky."

Aunt Ning had a learned expression: "Oh, so that's how it is."

……

At noon, Shen Maomao received a call from Zhan Zhi.

It's not surprising that the tour guide has a tourist phone number, but God knows how Zhan Zhi made the call on the train with only one signal signal.

She answered the phone, because the signal was too bad, the person on the other end said intermittently: "Quick... eat..."

Shen Maomao guessed that he wanted to ask him to eat, so he replied directly: "It's too stuck and I can't hear clearly, we'll be right back, hang up." After speaking, he led Aunt Ning to the dining car.

When we arrived, we saw familiar faces from the tour group as expected.Zhan Zhi was distributing food, and when he saw her, he said happily, "What a coincidence? You came here just after eating?"

The smile on Shen Maomao's face disappeared: "Didn't you call me?"

Zhan Zhi: "Huh? I didn't save your phone number?"

Shen Maomao immediately took out his mobile phone, but he couldn't find the call record just now.

She put the phone back with a solemn face: "how come?"

Only then did she realize that she didn't save Zhan Zhi's number, and the caller just now showed Zhan Zhi. What's going on?What did he mean by "quick...eat"?

Zhan Zhi saw that her expression was not very good, and comforted him: "Is it because someone made a mistake and his voice resembles mine, so you preconceived and thought it was me?"

Shen Maomao forced a smile: "Maybe..."

Zhan Zhi said: "Then let's leave each other's mobile phone numbers? This way we won't get confused."

Shen Maomao did not refuse.

Zhan Zhi said: "I'm not empty-handed, just give me a call and I'll give you a note when I get back."

Shen Maomao called the number he said, hung up after his phone rang, and then walked back with her and Aunt Ning's meal as usual.

He turned on his phone while eating, added the number he just dialed to his contacts, and typed Zhan Zhi's name casually.

The check mark that saved successfully jumped out, and Shen Maomao paused his hand, as if he wanted to understand something at this moment.

Aunt Ning asked her, "What's wrong? The food doesn't suit your taste?"

Shen Maomao kept her surprise in her heart: "It's okay... I thought of something, let's go out and talk after eating."

After a few quick mouthfuls of food, the two of them started to walk away again.

Shen Maomao looked at the phone while walking, but still couldn't understand what Zhan Zhi said on the phone.

When she saved the note just now, she suddenly had a speculation - before that, Zhan Zhi was not on her phone, if Zhan Zhi's name was displayed on his phone when he called, or the other party was a fake He wanted to lie to her, or the call came from the not-too-distant future, and Zhan Zhi was reminding him.

But Zhan Zhi's position was not yet clear, and Shen Maomao didn't dare to bet all his wealth and life on this unreasonable phone call.

She talked a lot about her speculations, and finally opened the mineral water and took a sip, and asked, "Aunt Ning, do you find anything strange about this journey?"

Before asking this question, Shen Maomao didn't expect to get a reply. Who would have thought that Aunt Ning would really answer her: "I saw a pattern, which seems to be a bit like the one on the cover of "A Midsummer Night's Dream"...but I didn't Wearing reading glasses, I can't see clearly.

Shen Maomao was immediately excited: "Where is it? I took a picture with the camera, and we went back to compare."

Aunt Ning said: "It's on the door, but I don't remember which door it is."

This is easy to handle, there are only a few doors in the car, as long as you look for them one by one, you can always find them.

The two started to walk back, and when they reached the conductor's office, Aunt Ning called to stop: "This is it! Look, this pattern."

Shen Maomao first took a photo with his mobile phone, and then leaned over to look at the pattern.

The train conductor’s office seat is not big. There is an oval glass on the door, and the pattern is pasted on the lower right corner of the glass. You can’t really find it unless you look carefully.

The overall pattern is a circle with complex patterns in the middle, which at first glance looks like a blooming flower.

Aunt Ning said: "It's the lazy flower, the pansy. The magical flower juice in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is extracted from this flower."

Shen Maomao: "How did you see it at a glance?"

Aunt Ning: "I have raised pansies, this must be true. When I was reading a book before, I saw the pattern on the cover and recognized it for a long time."

After going back, the two compared it in the book, and the two flowers were indeed exactly the same.

But does this represent anything?

What does the plot of A Midsummer Night's Dream have to do with the conductor's room?What does it have to do with the plot of the entire dungeon?

Today she has traveled the entire train, but she has not gained any useful information except for the flower. Perhaps it is because the time is not up and some important plots have not been triggered yet.

With that in mind, she wasn't in a hurry anymore.

Anyway, if it doesn't work, she can think of a way from the scavenger. She just needs to protect the boss.

……

Once a person starts paddling, time passes quickly, and it is night in the blink of an eye.

Shen Maomao and Aunt Ning were quite full, so they didn't go to the dining car to eat, and stayed in the car waiting for the others to come back.

She watched "A Midsummer Night's Dream" for a day, and had a general understanding of the plot of this comedy: the story tells a story about I love you and you love me, but he loves me and she loves him. The important props throughout the book are The magical "Love Lazy Flower Juice".In the article, it is the elf Puke who is responsible for dripping the flower juice. If there is a counterpart in reality, who did Puke's work?What does love lazy flower juice represent?

And there is another very important question, why does Aunt Ning have this book that is closely related to the plot in her hand?

With that in mind, she asked directly.

Aunt Ning explained: "I borrowed this from the tour guide. After getting on the bus, I saw Tour Guide Zhan reading a book, so I couldn't help but borrow it to have a look."

Zhan Zhi's book?

Shen Maomao still had some doubts in his heart, so he asked, "Do you remember the plot?"

Aunt Ning nodded: "I've seen it before, so I probably can remember it clearly."

Shen Maomao said: "Then I will return the book to him, and test it out by the way."

Aunt Ning nodded in agreement.

Shen Maomao not only wanted to test Zhan Zhi, but also wanted to test Aunt Ning.

From entering the book, this Aunt Ning was too calm.She has always positioned the identity of the scavenger on the three tour guides. Could it be that she hasn't thought enough?

She wanted to go all the way, but she passed by without paying attention, and she didn't start to walk back until she saw the door of the carriage.

Speaking of which, those three men seem to be right here...

She took a glance out of the corner of her eye, and there were three empty beds in the third and fourth compartments, and the other three beds were covered with quilts. The bulging under the quilts should be the three corpses.

And the remaining one...

She walked over without turning her eyes, and glanced back at the man sitting on the chair in front of the third and fourth compartments.The man kept shaking his legs and rubbing his hands anxiously, not at all as if he dared to be with the three corpses.

Then this person must be one of the players.
