Survival game by confession [unlimited]

Xiao Ji took out a bottle of [Sacred Wood Light] potion, and tried to take it back.

This time the system did not give any warning prompt, and he successfully put the bottle of Shenmu Light potion into the locker.

It is no problem to take out the things in the locker, but there is no way to put anything in this room into the locker.

Xiao Ji turned his gaze to this room again, observing the furniture inside.

The things in the simple confinement room can be read almost at a glance, the ordinary wooden desk, chair, the book "Neuropathology" placed on the desk, the too narrow single bed, and the A clock hanging on the wall.

The time above was about to point to ten o'clock.

clock, ten o'clock...

Xiao Ji's memory came back quickly, his memory was excellent, and he was very impressed with the clock on the wall.When they came to the confinement room to interview Ai Po, the time on the clock showed [-]:[-].

But at that time, Duan Wenzhou's camera and the watch that the system automatically distributed to them showed the time as 09:30.And Xiao Ji didn't think too much, just simply thought that it might be that in Ai Po's confinement room, the clock time was 10 minutes faster.

But now the time on the clock is still showing ten o'clock. It didn't take them a lot of time to come in and check the search, which was about 10 minutes.

It can also be assumed that the time when Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou entered this room happened to be [-]:[-].

Is this just a coincidence?

It's as if the clock on the wall keeps cycling between nine fifty and ten o'clock...

In other words, it’s going back in time, and I think of what Ai Er said outside Ai Po’s confinement room at that time: Ai Po actually suffers from short-term memory loss, and can only have a memory of 10 minutes.

... Is there a possibility that it is not that Ai Po suffers from short-term memory loss, but that this confinement room has reversed his memory to 10 minutes ago.

After all, when Xiao Ji saw Ai Po again in the underground pipeline, the other party didn't seem to have a bad memory at all.And this kind of memory recall is not only applied to Ai Po, anyone who enters this room will be recalled.

It was backtracked 10 minutes ago, as well as everything in this room, so after Epo twisted the fence at that time, the fence would return to its original state.

In fact, it was not the first time Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou entered this room, but their memories were recalled, and they forgot that they had already searched this room.

Their memories were stolen.

Just like the refresh after the game is restarted, the time is recalculated, and all the props in it are placed back to their original positions.And the characters in the game—namely, the memories of Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou were erased.

In the time gap between 10:[-] and [-] o'clock, their memories were recalled again and again, repeating the series of operations they entered the room, searched the room, found the secret room, and prepared to break the wall.

And the best proof of this point is that before Xiao Ji bent the steel fence outside the confinement room to get in, but now the originally curved fence has returned to its original appearance.

This is because the fence has undergone at least one "refresh", has been reshaped.

No one can change anything in this room, not even the position of a pen.Even if the position of the pen changed within this 10 minutes, but after ten o'clock arrived.The pen will still be refreshed back to its original position.

Here is a room that has been cut off, and it is also a time that has been cut off.

To give an example, time in our normal world is like a river, a one-dimensional vector, and time can only flow from one end to the other.

But the time in this confinement room is a handful of water taken out of the river of time. Its first place is connected, like a ring, flowing in a circle.When the time reaches ten o'clock, it will go back to nine fifty.

The people in this room only have 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes pass, the things in this room will be refreshed immediately.

But the life forms already in this prison of time will not be refreshed outside the room.

In the initial state of this room, there must be no living body, and the living body can only enter this room during a period of time from 10:[-] to [-] o'clock. If everything is refreshed according to the concept, the living body will also Return to the state [-] minutes ago, which is still outside the room.

But Xiao Ji and the others did not leave this room. From this, it can be concluded that the retrospective in this confinement room is an exception for living bodies.

All living things will only be cleared of their memories during this period of time, just like the memories of Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou have been refreshed, so they only remember that they came in to explore this room.

This is a perfect time cage, perhaps originally designed to imprison the most terrifying prisoners, where even the most powerful reasoning people have only 10 minutes.

The more people think, the more responsible people think, the harder it is to escape from this room.

Even if an escape plan is made within a period of 10 minutes, when the time is recalled and the memory is recalled, the prisoner will forget all this and start all over again.

Time is the most precious thing here.

And thinking from the perspective of the butterfly effect, in the absence of external interference, when the precondition factors are exactly the same, the behavior of organisms can be completely predicted.

Even the probabilistic problem of opening a book at random and reading the page numbers above is exactly the same in the end.Although theoretically speaking, when Xiao Ji opened the book "Psychopathology", there are as many possibilities as there are page numbers in this book.

He might turn to page 78, or he might turn to page 65, it's all random.But in a unique time and space, under the premise that all factors are exactly the same, Xiao Ji can only turn to the only page number.

The page number that says Nyquisyn Godfrey's Hexagonal Circle.

This also represents an even more terrifying thing——

If a prisoner does not escape in the first time loop, then he will undoubtedly do exactly the same things in the second and third loops as in the first time loop.

The first time is countless times, the first time he can't leave within 10 minutes, then he will never be able to leave.

Unless someone breaks this endless loop.And how difficult it is to completely decipher the secret of this room in just 10 minutes!

This is a time trap, catching all creatures that stray into it.

Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou are now in this trap, and they didn't find anything abnormal in this room during the first cycle.

According to Xiao Ji's deduction, they should have repeated the things in the first cycle in the second and third cycles, so that they would never have a way to leave here.But there is one thing that breaks this law, that is, Xiao Ji is not an aborigine in this world.

This also means that they have a system and a locker.

The wall-breaking tool that Duan Wenzhou took out from the locker in the previous cycle disappeared in the subsequent refresh because it belonged to something that did not exist in this space.

But because the storage space of the system and this world are essentially two planes.But this room can't put these tools back into Duan Wenzhou's locker, it can only swallow them.

This caused the contents of Duan Wenzhou's locker to disappear. If there were no wall breaking tools, they would have no way to break through the wall and go to the opposite secret room.

The butterfly flaps its wings here,

In the first few rounds, they should have chosen "Break the Wall".

But in this cycle, because the tools in Duan Wenzhou's locker were exhausted, they had no choice but to choose "not to break the wall". As long as there is any change, the situation will change, and there will be a way to escape. hope!

In just a few tens of seconds, Xiao Ji made the above reasoning in his mind, and he didn't even have time to explain it to Duan Wenzhou, because once he explained it, it would take more time.

Xiao Ji just guessed that the final point of this time may be at ten o'clock, but there is no way to determine the exact time.

——And now the pointer on the wall is less than ten seconds away from ten o'clock!

The railings at the door have been restored, and they are the prisoners who are now locked in this confinement room.

With only a few seconds left, they had to leave.

Xiao Ji grabbed Duan Wenzhou by the collar, pulled him together with the tentacles behind him that were still in the hole, and ran towards the door in three steps and two steps.

"Get all the food out of your locker."

He spoke orders very quickly.

"hurry up!"

Duan Wenzhou felt that Brother Xiao was pulling his collar with great strength, as if trying to strangle him to death.

"oh oh."

Duan Wenzhou is actually still a little unclear, so obviously they just entered this confinement room to explore, and they haven't encountered any danger yet, and haven't seen any monsters yet.

Why did Brother Xiao suddenly become nervous?

There are no doctors here, it is impossible not to see him when he comes out, his eyes are so good!

Didn't he just find nothing in the locker, this...

It shouldn't be a big deal, right?Could it be that Brother Xiao actually doesn't like people who lose everything?But his brain is not very good, what should he do if he loses things all day long, hey, it's so troublesome.

Although he was thinking about everything in his mind, Duan Wenzhou didn't delay his actions at all. He directly took out the food in his locker and threw it on the ground.

Candidates do not need to physically look for things from the locker, but only need to move their minds, so Duan Wenzhou only took a few seconds to throw them away.

Immediately, a large pile of food was piled up in a mess on the originally neat ground, such as jerky, cola, potato chips, roast duck, roast goose, chocolate, bread, yogurt, burgers...

In general, small supermarkets don't have such a complete range of shelves as Duan Wenzhou's here.

Even in this urgent situation, Xiao Ji couldn't help being shocked by how much food could be stuffed in Duan Wenzhou's 10-square-meter locker.But this is not the time to make complaints about this, Xiao Ji reached out to break off those iron railings, trying to bend them into a hole that could accommodate a person to pass through.

Asking Duan Wenzhou to take out food from the locker is a backup method, but what is more important is whether he can escape smoothly within this time loop.

In fact, this is because the iron railings are also "special props" in the system's judgment, and cannot be put into the storage space, otherwise Xiao Ji can directly put these iron fences into the storage space, so that there is no need to break open the iron railings, which is more convenient save time.

The second hand is beating slowly on the dial.

59 minutes, 57 seconds——

Xiao Ji's slender fingers landed on the railing, and the black railing bent into an arc under his hands.

58 seconds--

Although he didn't quite understand the current situation, and didn't know what happened, Duan Wenzhou still followed Brother Xiao, and a few tentacles rushed up to help behind him.

59 seconds--

The railing was completely torn apart, revealing a gap that only an adult could barely pass through. Xiao Ji didn't even care about Duan Wenzhou who was behind him, but he wanted to get out first as soon as he was short.

In fact, what Xiao Ji made now is the most correct and most beneficial choice for the two of them. As long as either of them leaves this confinement room, the curse can be broken.

Because people outside the confinement room are no longer subject to the time constraints of this room, and people inside the room will immediately understand that there is a problem with the room when they see people outside the room, and will leave immediately.

But if both of them are kept in the room, then the cycle will continue.

Time was running out.

Just when most of Xiao Ji left the confinement room and was about to escape, a soft bell rang.

It was ten o'clock, and the second hand on the clock had turned clockwise to the twelve position, but at this moment, it was as if a hand was dialing back the dial, and the time was quickly set back to nine fifty s position.

"Crack-"

The second hand moved slowly.

The food that had almost covered the floor of the confinement room disappeared at this moment, and the small hole in the wall of the toilet and the books that were messed up on the table all returned to their original state at this moment. s position.

Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou were moved from the position of the door to the center of the room.

The memory of the 10 minutes just now disappeared in their minds, and they once again thought that they had just entered this confinement room and began to explore.

"I don't see anything here." Duan Wenzhou looked around.

The furnishings in the room are simple.

Xiao Ji conveniently pulled out from the bookshelf the book "Neuropathology" that Ai Po and they were reading when they met for the first time. On the bookshelf densely packed with books, only this book was horizontal It is different from other books at first glance.

Duan Wenzhou, on the other hand, searched in the crevices of the bed and in the drawers, to see if he could find any useful clues.

After Xiao Ji found the reminder next door at the end of "Neuropathology".They began to probe the walls to see if there was a hidden chamber behind them.

Duan Wenzhou wanted to find some tools from his locker to knock on the wall, so that he could tell from the sound whether the other side of the wall was empty.But when he opened his locker, he was shocked.

"Ahhh! Who, who stole all my snacks inventory! The lockers of the system can also be stolen, damn it! I can report it!"

Duan Wenzhou has a storage habit. No matter what it is, he is used to keeping a copy. It’s like he’s maximizing the use of space in a ten-square-meter storage space, stuffing it with all kinds of commonly used tools, pliers, tweezers, and hacksaws. Shovels, Luoyang shovels, and all kinds of weapons are just trivial.

As a foodie, the most important thing is of course food.

But now, those snacks that originally occupied half of his storage space have disappeared!

Duan Wenzhou felt like he was about to cry out of anger!

But Xiao Ji was keenly aware that something was wrong. He stood on the spot and pondered for a while, and soon came up with the same information as Xiao Ji in the previous time reincarnation.

But compared with the previous reincarnation, this time they have plenty of time because they saved the time to explore and find the secret room.

Xiao Ji also analyzed more things. For example, they did not leave smoothly in the last reincarnation, but they took away the most important thing in Duan Wenzhou's storage space. Once it disappeared, Duan Wenzhou would never ignore it. food.

This is almost explicit.

Xiao Ji immediately pulled Duan Wenzhou and left the confinement room. Duan Wenzhou was still immersed in the grief and indignation that his food had disappeared, cursed the system, and felt that he was being targeted.

Xiao Ji inexplicably felt a rare guilt welling up in his heart.

After all, according to his analysis, the other party's food was probably made by him in the last round, so he patted his head rarely, and comforted him softly.

"It's okay, I'll buy it for you after this exam is over."

It was rare for Duan Wenzhou to be coaxed by him with such a gentle voice, and his face turned red.

"Okay, then I won't be angry."

Five minutes after the two left this weird room, the time in the room was refreshed again, so this time Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou witnessed with their own eyes the miracle that the room just messed up by them was restored to its original state almost instantly. Scenes.

"Fuck!"

Duan Wenzhou was stunned, and after listening to Xiao Ji's brief explanation, he felt that he had no brains.

If this was a horror novel, the brainless Duan Wenzhou might not even survive Chapter 84 if he hadn't met Brother Xiao.

Xiao Ji checked their time. At this time, it had been a whole hour since they reached the fifth floor, that is to say, they circled inside five times before leaving.

This is still in the case that they have storage space as a clue. If the aborigines of this world suddenly enter such a secret room without being informed, and without being reminded by outsiders, they will basically never be able to get away.

Xiao Ji's eyes flashed when he thought of Ai Po who was originally locked in this confinement room.What the other party is hiding may be much more than he originally thought.

In fact, in the previous cycle, Xiao Ji and Duan Wenzhou had already found another secret room, and got the note from the compartment.But they didn't in this cycle when they left the secret room, because their memories were refreshed.

Fortunately, after gaining insight into the secrets of this room, it is no longer difficult to explore it.

Because a person knows the secret of this room before entering this room, then this room can no longer deceive him.No matter how many times he refreshed his memory, it was the memory of when this person first entered this room. In this memory, he always knew the secret of this secret room.

Just in case, Xiao Ji let Duan Wenzhou stay outside, and went in to investigate by himself. Soon he found the secret room next door, and the paper in the gap between the two secret rooms.

【You can only live if you listen to me】

[We have no other way to go, this is our only chance to kill him]

Seeing that the time was about to reach 10 minutes, Xiao Ji decisively left the confinement room and waited for the refresh time to pass, so that his memory would not be refreshed.Then enter the confinement room again, use the props in his locker to break through the wall, and go to the secret room next door to explore.

The secret room next door is very similar to Ai Po's confinement room outside, except that there is an extra pair of heavy chains.

On the bookshelves in this room are not those medical books, but many occult books about black magic and alchemy circles: "How to Kill a Black Witch", "Introduction to Human Bone Alchemy Circles", "Abandoning Reason , Always Kind: The Autobiography of the Pure White King"...

The walls of the secret room are densely filled with various weird symbols written in pencil, from the ceiling to the floor, everywhere, like some kind of secret technique, and like a weird seal.

Under the bed, Xiao Ji found a low-level spell.

[Warning Clock: After the bell rings, it can remind the holder of a forgotten thing randomly. 】

Xiao Ji took the time to leave the confinement room, and they watched the torn but indomitable fence in the room return to normal again.The things in the room also returned to what they saw for the first time.

Now Xiao Ji has collected a lot of clues from this secret room, he consolidated the information, thought about it and expressed his inference.

"First of all, it can be confirmed that there is another patient next door to Aipo, and he is more dangerous than Aipo. In the secret room inside, it is also limited to 10 minutes, but use this curse."

Xiao Ji shook the small old golden clock in Duan Wenzhou's hand.

"The person who lives next door to Ai Po can break through the limitation of the intermittent time and connect his thinking. He also has contact with Ai Po next door, and they pass information to each other through the small hole in the toilet.

Assuming that the time in each room is traced back, then the part of the space between the two secret rooms does not belong to any of the two rooms, so this is where they transmit information.

The location of the "Neuropsychology" was specially placed, so that Ai Po could find the above clues in time, find the secret room next door, get the note he passed, and get the above information.

"Judging from that note, Epo and his neighbors are planning to kill a person, and that person is probably the one who imprisoned them here."

"Ai Po wanted to kill his brother, Al?" Duan Wenzhou tried to make his own guess.

"There is such a possibility. After all, from the [Truth of Old Al], we know that Al was originally a mentally ill patient. long.

From this point of view, Dean Al Jr. is the last big villain. It is reasonable for Ai Po and another powerful neighbor who lives next door to conspire together to kill Al. "

——Is the situation really that simple?

Xiao Ji thought more.

"The previous system prompt specifically stated that there is not only one truth. We have collected two truths so far, but I feel that the second hidden truth may not be the real truth."

"And there is another word that I am very concerned about, that is, in the note, the neighbor frequently used the word 'we'. He said that he must let Ai Po listen to him in order to survive.

'We' is a very close word, which means that the neighbors have a good relationship with Apple.

It can even be said that it is a relationship of life and death. Have you noticed that at the end of the first sentence, the person who wrote this sentence deliberately added an extra subject.Generally speaking, only the sentence pattern of talent will be more fluent. "

【You can only live if you listen to me】

"They're going to live together."

"Huh? What does this mean?"

Duan Wenzhou was already a little dumbfounded, but he quickly changed his mentality. Anyway, he couldn't do the deciphering, so just leave it to Brother Xiao.

"Brother Xiao is amazing! 666!"

and so……

Xiao Ji lowered his eyes.

"So in the end they escaped here together."
