In an escape game...

"It's so noisy early in the morning, are you sick?" Another door opened, and someone came out yawning, with a lazy voice.

People in the corridor looked sideways and saw a boy in his early ten years standing by the door. He was wearing a small suit and had chestnut curly hair. He was as beautiful as a porcelain doll, but his eyes were gloomy, and his expression was not like a child at all.

Someone frowned: "Smelly brat, how do you talk?"

Another person noticed the bandage on the boy's hand and asked in a low voice, "This outfit... is this kid an npc or a player?"

The boy ignored them, and his half-closed eyes opened after smelling the thick smell of blood in the air.

He walked to the side of the corpse, he didn't mind the blood on his shoes at all, and his tone was a little excited: "This skinning technique is really beautiful, who did it?"

A sweet-looking little girl walked out of the crowd, and said patiently: "Kid, don't talk like that."

The boy sneered: "Mind your own business."

The others couldn't figure out what the boy was, and the scene froze for a moment. Only a timid girl couldn't control her emotions and let out a suppressed sob.

Yun Xubai observed his words and suggested, "It's too bloody here, why don't you go downstairs first?"

The others agreed one after another, and the group went downstairs.

Although the boy was a little reluctant, he didn't refute, and followed behind the crowd at a leisurely pace.

In the hall on the first floor, there were several people standing, the door was open, and two guys were carrying buckets to wash the door.

The innkeeper folded his hands and paced up and down the hall with a sad face.

Yun Xubai took a glance and saw two bulging black cloth bags on the ground, still oozing blood, guessed the cause and effect in his heart.

He pursed his lips, his dimples appeared slightly, and asked as if he didn't know, "Boss, what's wrong with you?"

The hotel owner stopped in his tracks, his eyebrows twisted into sad characters, and he pointed to the cloth bag on the ground and said, "Oh, today's 'good start', two people died at the door."

Yun Xubai asked again: "Been skinned?"

"Yeah..." The hotel owner paused, "How do you know?"

The beautiful woman answered, "One died on the third floor."

"Three people died in one day. How can I do this business? Don't let another accident happen tonight. I can't bear it!" Chicken: "Hey! What are you doing?"

Everyone was attracted by the boss's voice, only to find that the pretty boy quietly opened the body bag and was squatting on the ground to watch.

Others avoided it, but the boy watched it with great interest and ignored the blood on his hands.

"The child is frightening."

"Yeah, it looks a little sick."

The players chattered in low voices.

Hearing this, the boy looked sideways at the crowd, his eyes were frighteningly cold, everyone shuddered and shut up.

When the boy looked coldly at Yun Xubai, Yun Xubai smiled kindly at him.He glared at Yun Xubai, Yun Xubai didn't mind, and smiled more gently.

The morning light reflected on the pair of flying eyebrows, the boy could see clearly, only this person, don't look at him strangely.

The boy stood up, stamped his feet in the bloody water, and walked slowly towards Yun Xubai.

As soon as the boy walked away, the hotel owner ordered the clerk to drag away the body bag. He wiped his sweat and said to the residents in a friendly manner, "Everyone, breakfast is prepared in the dining room. Go and eat."

"Boss, there is a water leak on the third floor, let's find someone to fix the roof today." Yun Xubai said after finishing his instructions, "Besides, I want to stay longer."

After Yun Xubai proposed to continue living, other people also mentioned it to the boss one after another.

After completing the formalities of staying, the players gathered in the restaurant and started their first meeting.

"Get to know me, my name is Feng Sheng." The beautiful-looking woman knocked on the desktop: "Did you all get pulled in after downloading an app called Escape Game?"

The little girl spread her hands, a little helpless: "Yes, I was taking online classes, but after downloading the game app, I somehow appeared here."

Hearing the words "online class", Yun Xubai felt very kind. It turned out that he was not the only one who took advantage of the online class.

Yun Xubai laughed: "What a coincidence, I was also taking online classes before."

"I'm an art teacher." The little girl looked Yun Xubai up and down: "You are so young, are you still a student? Fishing in class? Which school?"

Yun Xubai was stunned: "..." Why in the dungeon, I still feel the fear of being dominated by the teacher.

I don't know who said: "So, don't fish for online classes, you will travel through time."

The hall roared with laughter, and the tips of Yun Xubai's ears turned slightly red.

During a meal, although the players did not become acquainted, they exchanged names.

After dinner it was suggested to go out to find clues, but several people wanted to stay in the hotel.

In the end, only seven people decided to go out.

The art teacher's name is Chen Han, and he has a sweet voice: "Shall we find it together or separately?"

"Cows and sheep come in groups." The man wearing glasses snorted, leaving them with a lonely back.

Feng Sheng and the tall Qi Yiqi stood together, and threw an olive branch to Yun Xubai: "Do you want to go with us?"

Yun Xubai looked at the people behind him - a gentle and talkative teacher, a strange gentleman, and a young man with a pale face and a frail body.

He lowered his eyes and said softly, "I'll be with them."

Feng Sheng shrugged, and said in a tone of "you are on the wrong team": "The game world is cruel, and kindness is the most useless thing."

Seeing the two walking away, Chen Han propped his chin and asked Yun Xubai: "Where are we going?"

Yun Xubai had planned for a long time: "Look for that well."

"What well?" Chen Han's eyes widened: "Could it be the well where someone died?!"

Yun Xubai let out a "hmm", Chenhan's face turned pale, and the beautiful boy's reaction was the opposite of hers, his face was full of joy.

Yun Xubai asked him, "What's your name?"

The boy and Yun Xubai looked at each other, and wrote two crooked words on the table with bloody fingertips: "Jiaohuai".

"It sounds good." Yun Xubai boasted, and asked the hotel owner for a simple map of Huojing Town. After asking the owner to circle the exact location of the well, he took a chance to check the two bodies that were dragged to the backyard by the staff. corpse.

He didn't find the props, and he had doubts in his heart, then he returned to the living room with the map, and set off with a few people.

On the way, Yun Xubai asked a few passer-by NPCs about the well, and the passers-by said the same thing as the hotel owner.

Near noon, they found the well. The nearby houses had been evacuated, the roofs were overgrown with weeds and mold, and the damp and dark eaves became nests for crows and spiders.

The well stood on the ground, and the well cover connected to the pressurized water pump was broken into several pieces and piled aside. Looking from a distance, the well head looked like an eye growing on the ground, connected to a bottomless abyss.

"I always feel that this place is eerie..." Chen Han rubbed his arms.

Jiao Huai didn't seem to be afraid, she couldn't wait to run to the edge of the well, holding the mouth of the well with both hands and looking down, as if she wanted to bury her head in it.

Yun Xubai pinched Jiao Huai's collar and carried him back.

Jiao Huai turned her head to look at Yun Xubai, and blinked her eyes like glass beads.

Yun Xu understood: "What did you see?"

"A woman in red, soaking in the water, looking up at me, laughing."
