betting convention

"You mean, let's watch the fire from the other side first?" Ding Bai followed Chen Zhifei's words, not because he was in a hurry, but because the two of them don't have a single card on them now, and Chen Zhifei gave Li Pingyi the card they found downstairs yesterday. In my small team, they are the only ones who have not caught anything now.

"We still have a card in our hand." Chen Zhifei said, waking up the people present with one sentence.In such a hurry, they forgot that they hadn't found another card on the eleventh floor.

At that time, they put away all the keyboards they collected. As key props, without the existence of this keyboard, it may be difficult for others to solve the puzzle on the eleventh floor.

"Maybe they are downstairs now." Chen Zhifei said.

"Then why don't we go down and have a look." Ding Bai suggested, anyway, there is nothing worth staying on the remaining floors.

So the few people walked downstairs again, and the way down was surprisingly quiet. They heard a conversation at the stairway on the twelfth floor.

It seemed to be arguing, and judging from the difference in the voices, there were not many people downstairs, probably around three people.

"One golden flower card per person is enough, I don't think we need to be so decisive." One person said.

"No decision, do you know how many people we can survive in the end is determined." Another person said.

"What do you mean?" Someone asked in confusion.

"Don't you understand?" The people downstairs gave a smirk, "Since we placed our bets before the game started, how many people will survive in this game is already doomed."

"Four people chose the number five, which means that we can get out of this game with up to five people alive."

"If we don't get rid of the two people who followed us, then you may not be the one who can walk alive in the end."

The people below were silent for a long time, and then said slowly: "You mean, the number of us surviving will only be generated from the number we bet?"

So from the beginning of their choice, it was determined that they could only survive five people at most.

"The gambling game is so cruel, but since we choose to gamble, we have to get out alive."

The voices of the conversation downstairs were transmitted to the ears of Ding Bai and the others upstairs. Although I don’t know how this person knows the number of surviving dealers in the game, but I can know from their mouths that they solved it with their own hands. There are two dealers.

"They went in." Li Pingyi pointed to the passage downstairs, and the people who were talking just now had already entered the eleventh floor.

"Let's just wait outside." Chen Zhifei said, looked at Ding Bai and asked, "Do you still have the keyboards collected before?"

"Yes." Ding Bai pointed to Song Yue's backpack, where all the keyboards collected before were placed in Song Yue's backpack.

"Then we'll just wait outside." Chen Zhifei said, and several people were waiting outside the door on the eleventh floor.

After a while, there was movement at the door.

Gradually, the commotion became louder and louder, and Ding Bai heard someone inside shouting anxiously: "You fucking should hurry up and make this ghost code! Didn't you say you know how to do this?"

"I will, but the clues to this code are all in those keyboards, and now those keyboards are no longer here at all."

"Damn it! Someone took those keyboards!"

"Then what should I do? I can't stand it anymore!" Someone shouted, "How about we withdraw first?"

"Let's go!"

Footsteps came in, and Chen Zhifei stood at the door, quietly waiting for the door in front of him to open.The next second the door opened from the inside, and three panicked faces appeared in his sight. Behind the three faces was the keyboard ghost that he had thrown downstairs, but this time the keyboard in the keyboard ghost's mouth was missing. It's gone, leaving an empty mouth drooling.

The people inside didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to come out halfway, and Chen Zhifei, who was blocking the door, raised his eyebrows alone, as if he had no intention of letting them out, and closed the door under the surprised eyes of the three.

Others blocked the door directly.

The people inside didn't seem to expect that Chen Zhifei would come out like this, but the keyboard ghost following behind him was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and everyone could only hear the sound of banging on the door wrapped in a few curses.

"This..." Li Pingyi was dumbfounded, it was the first time he saw such an operation.

"Don't worry, I won't die." Chen Zhifei said indifferently. He didn't have a good impression of these people. In addition, he learned that these three people directly killed the other two dealers in the conversation just now. It is even more impossible for him Feeling pity.

Besides, those who can collect all the golden flower cards hidden on other floors at such a fast speed cannot possibly fail to solve the problem in front of them.

It's just that although they have the key props of this floor in their hands, there are few people who can solve the puzzle of this floor.So Chen Zhifei didn't want to make a scene too ugly, he opened the door in front of him only when he heard the crying sound inside and felt that it was about the same.

The three people inside were kicked out of the way. After Chen Zhifei entered, Ding Bai guarded the door, and he single-handedly repeated the previous technique to throw the screaming ghost downstairs.

After that ghost is dealt with, all that remains is to deal with the person in front of him who harbors a ghost.

"You know this code?" Chen Zhifei pointed to one of the three and asked.

The opponent's two eyes turned to the companion next to him, as if asking for help.But all of this was seen by Chen Zhifei, and he said in a cold voice: "Don't make any small calculations, I won't let you go, none of you will be able to go."

He said to the flustered man, "Come here and solve this code, and I will let you go after you get the cards."

"Really?" The other party didn't want to believe Chen Zhifei, he guessed in his heart that these people should already know that they collected the golden flower cards from other floors before them.

"Of course, I won't grab your cards, because if I really wanted to grab your cards, I would have already done so." Chen Zhifei said.

The other party thought for a while, the person in front of them had just directly dealt with the ghost in front of them, and he was terrifyingly strong.So I had no choice but to do what Chen Zhifei said.

Song Yue handed the collected keyboards to Chen Zhifei, and Chen Zhifei stared at the banker who said he could code to complete the unfinished code.

Although he was also dubious in his heart, when the banker got started, his doubts were dispelled. At least in Chen Zhifei's eyes, this person's feelings were indeed good.

Staring at the person in front of him to solve the leftover code step by step, after he put together the keyboard and entered a string of letters in a very complicated order, the picture that stayed still changed.

Countless letters were chaotically intertwined into a ball on the screen and spun rapidly. After reaching the critical value, only a small clicking sound was heard, and a golden flower card appeared on the screen.

Chen Zhifei stretched out his hand to touch the screen, grabbed the golden flower card on the computer screen strangely with his fingers, and pulled out the golden flower card from the computer screen under the surprised eyes of everyone.

The three people who originally had the idea of ​​this golden flower card watched the golden flower card fall into the hands of others.

One of them said in a muffled voice: "You got the card, shouldn't you let us go?"

Chen Zhifei made a gesture to let go, Ding Bai stepped aside to open the blocked door, and the three of them left this floor in despair.

"Why don't we take the cards from their hands?" Li Pingyi asked after those people left.

"It's not necessary, the game is not over yet, so there might be some changes," Chen Zhifei said.

"Besides, at this point in time, the more cards you have in your hand, it may not be a good thing." Ding Bai added.

Because tonight's episode caused a great change in their situation overnight, and the problems that originally needed to be solved layer by layer were almost resolved overnight.

Such a speed inevitably made Ding Bai and Chen Zhifei a little uneasy.

Too fast is not necessarily a good thing.

"Then what should we do next?" Song Yue asked. There are only fifteen floors left in the current ten-story building. It stands to reason that they should take the hot iron to solve the remaining problems, but for some reason, Ding Bai and the others seem to be There is no rush to resolve this matter.

"Let's rest first." Chen Zhifei said, "It's almost time, and everything needs to be relaxed."

Several people went out of the floor, but they didn't meet the other three people. It is unknown whether the three of them took a short break or went to the fifteenth floor.

They discussed going to the tenth floor to take a break first. A group of people had just reached the corner of the building when a dark figure flashed past their eyes, and a few seconds later there was a heavy sound of falling from the building.

"Yes, yes, that person just now!" Song Yuekeng said harshly, and she who was closest to the corridor at that moment just now saw the panic on the face of the person who fell down.

"them....."

"Sooner or later, those two are probably because he can write codes, so he didn't solve him when he solved the other two dealers." Chen Zhifei said indifferently.

The things in this game are the same as he said before, the path he chooses is his own responsibility.

tenth floor.

During this period of gambling, they almost defaulted to the tenth floor as their resting place, perhaps because the tenth floor was the only venue that didn't look so scary.

Chen Zhifei and Ding Bai were leaning on the sofa side by side. It was less than half an hour before five o'clock, but it was unexpectedly difficult for the two of them to fall asleep.

What happened tonight was something they didn't expect, and the conversation between the two of them didn't hide it before. They thought it wasn't a big problem, but who knew that walls have ears, and they forcibly wiped out the entire gambling game in just one night. Progress has sped up so much.

Moreover, three dealers died tonight alone.

"What do you think about that bet?" Ding Bai asked Chen Zhifei.

"A kind of psychological suggestion." Chen Zhifei said, "When the banker places a bet, he will automatically imagine the relationship between the number of surviving people in the game and the bet number, and consciously or unconsciously, he will form the idea that only a few people will survive. .”

"Those who are confident will feel that they will be the ones who survived, and those who are not confident will automatically think that they will be the ones to be eliminated."

"As a result, there will be differences between the dealers, and there will be situations like killing each other."

In this situation, not to mention that ordinary bankers would be affected, even Chen Zhifei would think about it in the beginning.

"It's so fucking cruel." Ding Bai said, "But after going through what happened tonight, I always feel that something will happen, because it is too fast."

Whether such a fast speed is good or bad is really hard to say at this time.

The two were chatting to pass the time, and unknowingly, Ding Bai noticed that the sky outside was slowly changing. He glanced at his phone and found that it was already past five o'clock, and none of the group of NPCs who had been taking work as their fate hadn't appeared .

The mobile phone in his hand vibrated quickly, Ding Bai stared at the mobile phone he picked up from the NPC, and a long message popped up on it.

The logo of 99+ is displayed on the chat software.

He clicked on the chat software and found that the gossip group had exploded.

- have you heardThree more people died in our company last night.

- I've heard, I've heard, no wonder I received the news that I won't go to work today in the middle of the night.

- Upstairs, do you remember the woman who died two days ago? Adding that makes me four.

- So, isn't it time?

- did you mean that time

-What time?What time?

- It was the day when the first haunting incident happened. It is said that many people died on the [-]th floor that night, but it was rumored that none of those people belonged to the company, so it didn't cause too much trouble.

- How about some jokes upstairs?

-What a joke, is this true? The corpses of those dead people disappeared inexplicably, and they couldn't find them after searching for a long time. It is said that every day when the day comes, there are scary things everywhere on the fifteenth floor.
