betting convention

The fallen stump caused a wave in the crowd, and everyone cautiously discussed who this arm belonged to, but Ding Bai noticed something strange about the people next to him.

The few students in their group except the dealer looked evasive, hiding at the back of the crowd as if they had thought of something scary.

Unsurprisingly, this hand belonged to Wei Jie who was in the same room with Ding Bai, but Ding Bai always had a doubt, what did Wei Jie do to die tragically?

After the shock of seeing the stump for the first time, the dealers present gradually calmed down, and everyone realized that the betting game had already begun, just before everyone entered the state.

Wei Jie died in a strange way. The fallen stump came from a group preparing sculptures. They planned to find Wei Jie's rest of the stumps in the completed sculptures, but it was obvious that Wei Jie did not appear in this pile of sculptures. Jie other body tissues.

In other words, they only saw the hand that belonged to Wei Jie so far.Therefore, it is still uncertain whether Wei Jie is alive or dead.

During the panic, the counselor stepped in to appease the emotions of all the students. Judging from the situation at the scene, this matter was very stimulating to all the students present, but as for why, I am afraid that they need to be the dealers to find the answer .

All the students were moved to another classroom, while the rest of the dealers stayed in this room, whether it was intentional or not, they seemed to be out of the counselor's concern.

"Does anyone know who the dead person is?" asked the rock youth in Ding Bai's group.Everyone is meeting for the first time, and the identity of each other is still unclear.

"The banker in the same room as me." Ding Bai slowly walked forward and squatted down to take a closer look at the stump, "But everyone was fine before going to bed last night."

"That is to say, things happened after falling asleep, but the question is why?" Someone asked.

yeah, why?Deaths in gambling games all have a reason, and Wei Jie's unexplained death can't help but make people feel panic.The unknown cause of death is like a time bomb hidden in the dark, maybe one will come across it inadvertently.

Ding Bai was also thinking about this reason. Ever since he entered the room to rest, Wei Jie had never left his sight. What happened to cause a person to die inexplicably.

etc?Are you sure it's death?

"With only one hand, it is difficult for us to judge whether a person is really dead." Ding Bai questioned, "If the person is dead, why put this hand here?"

These words can't help but make everyone start to think. The dealer knows that people will die in the game, so it's a bit strange to leave a hand for no reason.

Ding Bai turned his head to look at the students in another classroom who didn't know what they were talking about, thinking, maybe the breakthrough point was in this group of students.

The stump was cleaned up by the counselor, and the students quickly returned to the classroom, but surprisingly, this matter did not seem to cast a shadow on the students, instead they focused more on the matter at hand.

Even they were still at a loss for the two tanks of water in front of them.

It was also during this time of bewilderment that Ding Bai realized that it didn't matter if they were here or not.This group of students didn't know if they were really concentrating on what they were doing, and they didn't care whether they were really involved.

So during this period, Ding Bai walked around and found that it was true, whether he was in the classroom or outside the classroom had no effect at all.

So Ding Bai walked out of the classroom swaggeringly, and swayed in the building majestically.

To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of the building he was in. He didn't know if it was because he was on the first floor. He felt that this floor was a bit damp and dark, and the weather outside was obviously good.

This building is much larger than it looks from the outside. There are several large classrooms on the first floor alone. However, except for the few classrooms that Ding Bai and the others stayed in before, the other classrooms seem to be used for stacking equipment. of.

They walked around and glanced at the doors of several classrooms, some of which were stacked with painting materials, and some were used for display.There is even a classroom where each other has a lot of clay sculptures that have been made.

Ding Bai took a cursory glance, and felt that at least these students were quite talented, and the clay sculptures piled up in the classroom were quite lifelike.

After walking out of the gate, Ding Bai had a clear view of the whole building. He didn't have time to see it clearly last night. Now it seems that the shape of this building is very strange.The whole building is not a common symmetrical figure, but a shape similar to a patchwork of triangles and circles. In his eyes, this shape can be listed on the national list of strange buildings.

Perhaps this is the so-called art.Ding Bai said silently in his heart, and turned to observe his surroundings.

Like other gambling games, the surrounding area is difficult to see clearly. The scope of the entire gambling game stays at the intersection where the gambling game was entered last night, and it is blurred when looking outside.

In a blur, Ding Bai found Chen Zhifei who was leaning on the side of the road. The other party was not very surprised when he saw him, but stared at him calmly.

"Hey, are you busy?" Ding Bai jokingly said, walking towards Chen Zhifei involuntarily.

The other party didn't speak, but Ding Bai remembered that the game had rules for the croupier, and the croupier was not allowed to disclose any clues about the game to the dealer during the game.

"I didn't sleep well last night. I don't know if it's because I ran five kilometers in a dream and now my back hurts." Ding Bai said to himself, regardless of whether the other party was listening, "You guys Errands are not easy to listen to, and you have to stay downstairs at night."

Chen Zhifei ignored him, and Ding Bai didn't find it strange when he talked alone: ​​"Do you think this person is dead or not?"

He turned his head to look at Chen Zhifei, not knowing whether it was on purpose or what, he just stared at him until Chen Zhifei turned and left.

"Cut, stingy." Ding Bai murmured, left the place, and returned to the building.

In fact, he just wandered around outside just to see if he could find any clues around, but this trip was a waste of time.

After returning to the building, he ran into the rock youths who were in the same group before, and it seemed that after he left, the bankers also began to stay where they were no longer honestly.

"Why did you go there just now?" The rock youth ran over after seeing him, "How dare you run around by yourself?"

"It's not daylight, so I went out to have a look, what happened?" Ding Bai felt a little strange seeing that everyone in the classroom had disappeared, so he asked, "Where are the others?"

"A student fainted just now, probably out of fright. The counselor asked everyone to go back to rest. Now that the students have dispersed, the dealers must be looking for clues." Rock youth said.

"Did you faint?" Ding Bai asked with some doubts, is the reflex arc of the students in this school so long after being frightened?

The two returned to the second floor together. As soon as they reached the area on the second floor, they heard a burst of shouting and slapping, like a heavy slap in the face, followed by the girl crying softly.

Ding Bai suspiciously looked towards the sound of the slap, and saw those cracks in the door with sharp eyes. The people in the crack of the door seemed to feel the gaze from outside, and closed the door gently.

The counselor came out of a certain room cursing, and saw the expressions on Ding and Bai's faces: "Why didn't you two take a break? We are also sorry that this happened, but some of the students are talking nonsense, you If you heard it, pretend you didn’t hear it.”

Ding Bai thought to himself, isn't this telling everyone that the students know something, since this is the case, there is no reason to pretend not to see it.

Nodding on the surface, the two sent the counselor away, and then Ding Bai rushed to a room and kicked open the half-hidden door.

The student lying on the door inside was kicked and staggered, and then stood up in a mess with a look of vigilance.

"What do you want to do?" the student said, with unconcealable tension in his words.

"Nothing, just want to ask you some questions." Ding Bai said, with a feigned vicious expression on his face, "Tell me everything you know, or I will ask your counselor."

The rock youth beside him couldn't figure out why Ding Bai wanted to move the counselor out, but the students began to compromise like a mouse seeing a cat.

"We don't know much, so please don't call me a counselor!" Several students looked at each other, and finally couldn't stand the pressure and told the story, "Our college has always had a tradition of holding a conference every four years. An exhibition called 'Beautiful and Innocence'."

"The students participating in the exhibition are all randomly selected. The college doesn't care about the quality of the exhibition, because it is nothing more than a sacrifice to them."

"Sacrifice?" Ding Bai was a little confused about what relationship an art exhibition could have with sacrifice.

"The reason why the exhibition of legendary works is called 'Beautiful and Innocence' is because I want to tell students that everything is beautiful, but it is said that in one year's work exhibition, a senior was killed before the exhibition. After the death, the school did not stop exhibiting, but because of this incident, more and more people paid attention to the exhibition, and more people began to look forward to this exhibition.”

"But on the day of the exhibition, something happened. All the students who participated in the exhibition disappeared collectively, and the school did not find these disappeared students after a long investigation after calling the police."

"After a long time, a student who came to the exhibition one day found that the color of a painting in the exhibited works seemed to be wrong. Later, it was found that the painting had been mixed with human blood when it was painted. After inspection, it was found that there was blood in the painting. It was one of those missing students."

"So all the works in any exhibition were checked, and it was found that all the works were related to those missing students, such as the drawing paper made of student skin, the ornaments made of student bones, and the ones made of student hair. decorations." While talking, the expressions on the faces of these students became more and more ugly, "Some people say that this exhibition is a curse, and there is no other way but to sacrifice 32 students."

"Later, the college also stopped holding this exhibition, but in the year when it stopped, 32 students in the college died mysteriously, one of whom was the dean's daughter. Later, the college didn't dare to stop this exhibition anymore. We can draw 32 students from the existing students to participate in the exhibition.”

"That is to say, the 32 unlucky ones who were drawn are here to die?" Ding Bai concluded, "Then what does this have to do with us? We are all from other schools."

"It didn't matter at first. This year, our college randomly selected 32 students, but one day, [-] students disappeared collectively. We thought they had escaped. But the school failed to find them after searching for a long time, and even the police were involved in this. In the end, it was nothing. But two days ago, someone suddenly said that he was willing to send twelve students to study and exchange, that is, you."

Ding Bai understood that the twelve bankers who co-authored them were scapegoats.

Now it is clear what is going on with this incident, but even if this incident is a curse, what is the source of the curse?And what was the cause of death?

Ding Bai couldn't figure out the clues in his hands for a while, but from the clues he got from the student just now, it can be known that the scope of death is not limited to the twelve bankers, but these students are also included in the scope of death.And in terms of the number of people, the death rate of students is actually higher than that of dealers, so what did Wei Jie do to die so early?

Ding Bai stood in a daze in the corridor, and the rock and roll youth who was walking with him just now asked him, "Do you want to go to the bathroom?"

He subconsciously shook his head, then thought of something and changed his mind: "Let's go and have a look."

"Go and see? What's so interesting about the bathroom?" The rock youth couldn't understand.
