Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

There is still half an hour.

Wu Jian was almost thinking numbly.

There is a kind of hopeless rationality and calm in his brain, which allows him to analyze everything calmly.

He thought, I'm afraid they'll have to deal with this nightmare before the disaster strikes half an hour later.

In other words, when they entered this nightmare, they had about an hour to collect clues and solve the nightmare.

If the disaster that happened half an hour later was really as described in the news, it would probably be extremely tragic. Even the taskers would probably have a hard time escaping, let alone the fact that they existed in this nightmare some of the humans.

At that time, death will inevitably occur, and the nightmare will inevitably restart.

So, Wu Jian thought, they have to hurry up.

However, just behind such a decisive and sober analysis, a certain kind of terrifying chill that completely froze his thinking was spreading in his body.

He suddenly found himself gripping the newspaper tightly until the edges were torn by his nails.

He suddenly found that the two taskers beside him also showed the same shocked and terrified expressions.

He suddenly noticed that the student-looking boy sitting in front of him was trembling unconsciously with his fingers on the table.

He suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, his fingers were also trembling, and he rested lightly on the boy's shoulder.

He said, "Don't be afraid."

His own voice was trembling with fear, his own voice was so dry that he could hardly speak.

The boy looked at him blankly, and after a long time, he asked softly, "Are we going to die?"

"No..." Wu Jian heard his own voice like a dream, as if it came from the end of some distant world.

He himself didn't know what he was talking about, "No, how can human beings be so fragile?"

"But that was a natural disaster." The boy said, "There are already so many lunatics in our society. Natural disasters and man-made disasters are all complete now."

Wu Jian opened his mouth and didn't know how to answer this question for a while.

In the end, he just said dryly, "But I should say something hopeful, shouldn't I?"

The boy was speechless.

At this juncture, Wu Jian's off-line and outspoken temperament can also emerge from time to time.

The audience in the live broadcast room were also convinced.

"It's too bad, the atmosphere is gone all of a sudden."

"Hey guy, so the background story of this nightmare is a meteorite falling from the sky and destroying humanity?"

"Why does it always feel different from the previous nightmare?"

"This, this, this, no wonder such a big scene is needed. Otherwise, how can it reflect the terrible scene of the meteorite falling?"

"Director team, full special effects! Full!"

"Suddenly feel sorry for these taskers. The previous nightmare: I can't think of it; the current nightmare: I can't escape."

"Hahaha, it used to be a battle of wits, but now it's a battle of martial arts!"

"No wonder! So those lunatics are indeed the danger in the nightmare, not part of the truth!"

"Emm, it's hard to say, let's see."

"What I don't quite understand is that if the focus is on the thing that fell from the sky, then... what's the situation in the museum? Is such a big scene just dangerous?"

"According to the results of the current exploration by the missionaries, there are three large-scale scenes in this nightmare: the library, the museum, and the space agency. But... I always feel that there is no way to connect them together."

"I'm here to ask that question again: who is the master of the nightmare?"

"Fuck, Qiuqiu, don't use this question to harm my brain."

The debate among the audience in the live broadcast room made Xu Bei laugh unavoidably.

But this time Ringo was sitting next to him, so he still tried his best to control his smile.

Seriously, how come Ringo can come to him every time during the live broadcast?

Xu Beijin glanced sideways at Lin Po, and couldn't help but sigh.

He hinted at Lingo very vaguely: "You said they are upstairs, can they find any clues?"

Ringo tilted his head: "Maybe it's okay?"

Xu Beijin was startled, and felt that Lingo's affirmative tone was a bit strange.

Ringo said again: "Since you are here, there must be clues in this library, right?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

This brain circuit...he was really powerless to refute.

Indeed, since there is an actor here, the Mastermind must be hinting that there are clues in this scene.

However, Lingo's natural appearance made Xu Beijin feel a little inconceivable.

He meant... Ringo still thought of this?

This is very different from Ringo's love of using force to solve problems.Can this also be explained by intuition?

Xu Beijin looked at Lin Po, feeling confused for a moment.

After all, the vast majority of taskers don't actually realize that wherever there are living people, there must be clues. Without exception, it just depends on whether they can ask the right questions or meet certain conditions. , let the mastermind relay the information to them through the players.

And many taskers, once they failed to ask for any information, would think that the resident of the narrow building didn't know the clues about the nightmare;

But in fact, it should be said that the tasker failed to master the method of asking for information.

But at this moment, Lingo casually broke this unspoken rule.

He said, since you are here, there must be clues here.

Is the focus on "Xu Beijin" or "here"?

Did he really understand the unspoken rule that only the actor knew, or did he just... feel that Xu Beijin was a special existence?

He always felt that Xu Beijin was special, and the latter was already used to it.

but……

Thinking about it, Xu Beijin felt helpless.

What is he thinking so much about?Maybe it's just Ringo's intuition beyond common sense, which once again played a role.

In the final analysis, why is Lin Po able to identify Xu Beijin as special at a glance among so many actors?

This is also an incredible thing.

And the unreasonable force value, blank memory and past on him...

There are so many secrets hidden in Lingo, and even he himself doesn't understand the reason.

As for Xu Beijin, although he also hides some secrets.However, he himself is absolutely clear about what happened.

He turned his gaze back to the live broadcast room, and thought to himself, a meteorite from the sky?

No, that should be called... Heavenly Fire Comes into the World.

At least, that's how they named the catastrophe at that time.

Xu Beijin yawned a little tiredly, and some smoldering emotions stirred up again.

This nightmare... this nightmare... is a recurrence of some past.

A true reproduction.

What happened in this nightmare also happened on the earth in a certain period of time in the past.

Although the taskers and actors have already forgotten that past, but...Xu Beijin never forgot.

He once told Dai Wu that memory can sometimes become a curse.

indeed so.

If possible, he also hopes that he can also forget.

The corner of Xu Beijin's mouth traced a bitter arc.

At this moment, Ringo's familiar, calm and deep voice came from his ear: "If you don't want to laugh, you don't need to laugh."

He felt a warm touch from the corner of his mouth.

Ringo's fingers touched his lips, gently smoothing out the bitter curve.

Xu Beijin subconsciously turned to look at him.

He saw Ringo's eyes.He couldn't tell what kind of emotion Ringo was feeling at this time, they were too close, and for the first time Xu Beijin realized that Ringo could casually step into his social distance.

And he wasn't even defenseless.

He stared at him blankly.

Ling Po tilted his head and said suddenly, "Should I kiss you at this time?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He suddenly broke away from the emotion just now, scowled, and pushed Ringo away.

He said blankly, "No..."

"You said you can't, not shouldn't. So I should kiss you..." Ringo said, "But you don't allow it?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He thought, how could there be such a troublesome person like Ringo!

He was once again pissed off by Ringo.

But this time, he suppressed his emotions and just said: "Yes, I won't allow it."

"Then when, should I, and then you allow... At that time, I can kiss you, right?"

Xu Beijin's ears turned red.

He ignored Ringo.

But Lin Po looked at him and thought to himself, Xu Bei would never answer, and he knew it too.

That moment should be right around the corner, right?

Yes, that's what his gut told him.

Ringo laughed silently and joyfully.

Scarlet walked out of the building of the space agency in a daze.

Behind them, the group of astronomers were still arguing.

Fei has already asked some information from their mouths.

For example, the thing they observed will land on this planet in 10 minutes to half an hour.A huge shock wave may destroy everything in an instant.

So, this may be the last period of their lives.

For another example, after observing that thing, many people thought that the madness of human beings that started about a year ago might also be related to that thing.

Could it be that the proximity of that thing caused a change in the planet's magnetic field, which then invisibly affected the human brain?

This is the possibility that one of them swears by, even though the others don't believe it, and Fei doesn't believe it very much.

Since it affects the human brain, how can it be possible that some people are not affected, while others are deeply affected?

Or maybe it's just that those seemingly rational people are actually crazy?

Fei didn't want to face this speculation.

She forced herself to turn her attention to this nightmare.

She muttered to herself, "So, we don't have much time left for this round of nightmares."

The taskers originally agreed that after their respective explorations were completed, they would return to the library to gather and summarize the information they had gained.However, Fei did not expect that this nightmare actually has a time limit.

And it took them nearly 10 minutes to walk from the library to here, not counting the time they were delayed by various lunatics.

They may not have time to rush back to the library now, things are about to fall from the sky.

Fei subconsciously looked at the sky.

It was at this time that she suddenly understood why Mu Jiashi always looked up at the sky subconsciously in this nightmare.

He probably knew what was about to happen.

Fei and Mu Jiashi looked at each other, and understood what each other was thinking, and what they were worried about.

Mu Jiashi hesitated for a moment, and was about to speak when suddenly, several taskers heard two beeps not far away.

The horn of the bus.

The long-haired man said weakly, "Can we take the bus back to the library?"

Fei said softly, "I don't know either. Just ask..."

The long-haired man nodded.

Although this long-haired man is a pervert who pursues death, in this nightmare, he seems to be dazzled by the madness of those lunatics first.

Originally, I just wanted to pursue a fresh way of death in this nightmare, but I didn't expect...

The long-haired man looked depressed.

He didn't know when his pursuit of death started, but it seemed that it was not just the enjoyment of death.

He tried different ways of dying, as if he wanted to verify something...to pursue something.

When he heard those astronomy enthusiasts mentioning "things falling from the sky", the long-haired man felt as if his heart had been hit hard by something.

A voice seemed to say in his ear, "This is it! This is it!"

But the long-haired man himself didn't understand, what exactly does that mean?

He was looking for something...some kind of experience, feeling.Some kind of... death experience.

What he has been pursuing, what he has been looking for, but has never found, is the moment of death.

Many people died in nightmares and came back to life again.They are always afraid of death because of the pain of the moment of death.

But the long-haired man is not like this. He enjoys death, but not entirely because of the pain of death.

It's because... when resurrected after death, at that moment, the sky suddenly appeared, like waking up from a dream.

As if he had really experienced it.

Resurrection after death.As if he really had that experience.But now, he was looking for that sense of déjà vu, as if waking up from a ten thousand year sleep.

But not long ago, the group of people talked about the objects falling from the sky, and that the planet was about to be destroyed in an instant impact... He suddenly felt a strange feeling awaken in his heart.

It may be some kind of fear, or it may be some kind of anticipation mixed with fear.

He stood there in a trance, unable to explain his feelings for a moment.

However, neither Fei nor Mu Jiashi paid any attention to the long-haired man.All taskers know that those who pursue death are unreasonable lunatics, they can't communicate at all, and they just desperately seek death.

Who wants to understand such a twisted and sick world?

In this narrow building, everyone has distorted their spiritual world, the purpose is to fight against this crazy nightmare.

They have no intention of paying attention to other people's psychological activities, nor do they have any intention of intervening in other people's cognitive world.

They can't even survive themselves, so why bother with others?

They are all like walking dead.

Scarlet turned to stare at the bus.It came from the end of the road and slowly stopped beside the three taskers.

The car door opened, and the taskers looked at each other in blank dismay, but did not act for the time being.

The driver didn't rush, just waited quietly.

Finally, Fei probed over and asked, "Master, can I go to the library?"

The driver nodded stiffly.

So the three missionaries boarded the bus.

They shouldn't be able to get back to the library in time by walking alone, but with the bus, the speed should be much faster.

There were no other passengers on board, as if the space agency was the starting station for the bus.

Fei secretly thought to herself, this is actually a bit unbelievable.Why are there still buses running during this nightmare?

She glanced at the clock on the car and realized it was 03:30 in the afternoon.

She noticed the moment keenly, and thought, so to speak, perhaps something from the sky would fall around four o'clock.They still have half an hour...probably.

The main brain, NE, seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and always plans the time in the nightmare very neatly. This is an unspoken rule that has been explored clearly by higher-level taskers.

However, although it is an unspoken rule, it may not be without exceptions.

Fei was restless and couldn't help but communicate with the bus driver.

She said: "Master, you are still driving a bus, isn't it a bit dangerous?"

"Dangerous, of course, there are." The driver slowly answered Fei's question, "But, the department requires it. And, I love, work."

Fei looked at the driver in confusion, thinking, this might be a lunatic.

She asked again: "We just came out of the space agency and heard the people over there say that something is going to fall from the sky..."

"Don't believe those people's words." The driver suddenly and rudely interrupted Fei's words, "Those people are all liars and lunatics. They spread their ideas everywhere. But they are all fake."

Crimson stunned...

fake?

Fei subconsciously looked at the sky again.

Still a cloudless, sunny day.

Indeed, nothing could be seen.If there is a catastrophe after half an hour, then there should be some signs now, at least, they should be able to see that falling thing, right?

That was flying in space and finally fell on this planet.

Besides, it's just a group of astronomers. Who knows if what they observe is some kind of cosmic garbage?Just being treated as a special object by them?

Besides, who can confirm that that thing will definitely fall on this planet?

That must go through professional and accurate measurement and calculation, right?

The driver's words raised countless possibilities in Fei's mind, but the driver in front of him was also a lunatic, so Fei had no way of knowing whether his words were true or not.

She couldn't help but smiled wryly, bit her lips, and couldn't help but ask, "Master, why are you so sure?"

"Because, I just, know." The driver shook his head, "It's fake, it's all, fake. Whatever it says, it's all for, to explain, the origin of the lunatics. They, however, are also a group of liars."

Fei was startled, and then realized what the driver meant.

Just now, the group of astronomy enthusiasts also said that the object flying in the sky might be the culprit of human madness.

Among them, some say that it is because of the change of the magnetic field, and some people directly point the finger at the so-called "alien".

I am afraid that this kind of statement is deeply popular in human society.

This kind of inexplicable and crazy strangeness, no matter how human scientists study it, they can't draw a definite conclusion.

They don't know how the disease should be cured, nor how it came about.

Human research on the brain has not yet entered the room.Therefore, they can only be helpless in the face of such madness.

Under such circumstances, various conspiracy theories naturally emerge in endlessly, no matter whether they are reasonable or not, they are all regarded as the source of madness anyway.

Eventually, it got to the point where even the driver didn't believe either version.

But this situation made Fei have another idea.

Indeed, most of those speculations are unknowing conspiracy theories.However, what if there are some people who hit the wrong way?

In particular, speculation related to objects falling from the sky...

After all, they entered this nightmare to solve the knot in the heart of the owner of the nightmare.

Since they appeared at this point in time, the nightmare of the narrow building resident must also be related to what happened or is about to happen at this point in time.

What else is more impressive than the catastrophe that is about to fall on the mother star?

Fei took a deep breath.

Along with this thought, another incredible thought also arises.

That being the case, if you want to solve this nightmare, you need to solve this catastrophe?

How is this possible? !

Fei smiled wryly, and felt that she was wrong again.This nightmare may have clues that they haven't discovered yet.

Scarlet God spent these few minutes in disbelief.

After 10 minutes, they returned to the library.

At this time, Wu Jian was already waiting for them in front of the library.

Not long ago, Wu Jian also learned of various reports and speculations about "UFOs".

The boy who looked like a student bluntly told several taskers the results of his investigation in the past few days.

But it has to be said that despite having obtained such important information, Wu Jian couldn't help but feel a kind of disheartened despair.

He and Fei have the same thoughts... Could they still prevent such a disaster from happening?

Besides, if such a thing can really happen, and it really happened on the earth in the past...

So, is this what was once, what they experienced and forgot, the end?

Wu Jian couldn't help sighing in frustration.

Several taskers left the third floor and returned to the first floor.The boy also followed them.

The purpose of them returning to the first floor was to ask Xu Beijin if it was possible to take them to the fifth floor to have a look.

That is the office area of ​​the library staff. Only the library staff can go there, but there must be a way to let them pass.

Cun Tou took the initiative to negotiate with Xu Beijin, but Wu Jian walked out of the library, wanting to see if any missionaries had completed their exploration and came back here.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of a car engine.

He turned his head and saw a van passing the road in front of him and heading north.Wu Jian thought to himself, where did this car come from?

He stared at the road heading north, and found a small black dot coming faintly in the distance, intersecting with the van and passing by, and then getting bigger and bigger.

Wu Jian narrowed his eyes and watched carefully.

Finally, he found out that it was a bus.
