Global Examination

After they got out of the car, they froze in place.

There is a street in front of you, with tall buildings and shops on both sides.

The tall building is a bit old, like a department store in the last century.The shop windows were gray, and the lamps in the corner cast a halo of light on them.

Like some forgotten old street in the city.

"Is this a resting place?" Everyone grabbed the driver and didn't let him get into the car.

"What are you dragging me for?" The driver was very upset, and took a few hands off his arms: "It's just a rest place. Didn't you see a hotel here?"

This tattered minibus was indeed parked in front of a hotel.

The hotel is the most common fast store decoration style, located at the corner of the street, with few people.

... In fact, not only the door, but the whole street can be recruited.

"Is there a change in the rest place?" Everyone was very surprised.

"What about the small hotel? Where's Boss Chu? We finally got to know her better."

"Boss Chu? Chu Yue?" Perhaps it was because of the lighting, the driver's dark skin turned a little red, but soon, his expression faded: "Have you seen her? She's still in that small hotel Let’s take a rest. There are 5 rest places in the country, and they are rotated frequently.”

You Huo: "Domestic? The exam also includes foreign countries?"

The driver pursed his lips.

He didn't seem to want to say more, but for Chu Yue's sake, he finally said, "Of course there is. Isn't there a foreigner standing next to you? Besides, there are foreign languages ​​in the subjects, so of course there are foreign examination rooms."

The man who had just finished his foreign language test in the village stared at him silently.

driver:"……"

"This is a small probability event for you," he added.

……

You Huo glanced around, the high-rise building was brightly lit, as if it was full of people.

"Can you choose a resting place?" he asked.

The driver said: "Generally, random. Each of the 5 places has its own special features—"

You Huo recalled the resting place before, and managed to find a characteristic: "Extremely broken?"

Driver: "...Chu Yue is a bit—"

You Huo looked at him.

Driver: "...it's very broken."

"That resting place may be the only one that can't find any advantages." The driver frowned and muttered: "Otherwise, she wouldn't be fined..."

"However, there are still advantages in other places. The one in Chuyue is the No. 1 rest area. The No. 2 rest area is like a military base. It has a lot of weapons. It has everything you can think of. It is a paradise for some candidates."

"The landmark building in the No. 3 rest area is the casino. If you are lucky, you can try it, and you may get a walk card. No. 4 rest area eats a lot and plays a lot. If you stay there for a few days, you can temporarily forget about the exam." Kind of a nuisance. Number 5 is here."

You Huo frowned, with an ominous premonition: "The advantage here?"

The driver said: "The supermarket is cheaper."

Everyone: "How cheap?"

"5-9% off."

"..."

Chen Bin couldn't help but said, "To be honest, I can't even deduct 0.1 point now."

Driver: "Coincidentally, most of the candidates are like you. So it's unlucky to get here..."

Ouhuang Youhuo turned his head and left.

……

Anyway, this No. 5 rest area is better than the last one.

They don't want to use the adjective "prosperous", which sounds like irony.

In short, even the hotel review is stricter here.

A scanning machine is installed on the automatic glass door, and a red light will scan the candidates when they pass by.

In line with the principle of giving priority to the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, You Huo leaned against the door.

After all the others entered the door, he followed at the end of the line.

He had just stepped one foot in when the alarm went off.

The girl at the front desk of the hotel stood up "squeaky" and her neck stretched out: "What did you bring?"

You Huo stopped: "What do you mean?"

Everyone didn't know why, and they were worried that something was wrong with You Huo, so they all stared at the front desk vigilantly.

The receptionist rushed forward and waved: "Come here, please, I have to check."

You Huo threw the black bag on the table, unzipped it, raised her thin eyelids and said, "What are you looking for? Let's go."

This face looks a bit shocking up close.

The girl blushed from the neck to the face, and explained: "Uh...you can turn it yourself. You can recall, did you bring back the things from the examination room?"

Everyone was confused.

Yu Wen said: "Impossible, there are no normal things in the unlucky examination room, and whoever has a brain to bring them back is not a souvenir."

The girl at the front desk was amused by him: "It is not ruled out that some things tried to sneak out with the candidates. It has happened before and almost killed people in the rest area. After that, I started to investigate. It is a kind of reminder."

Everyone said that they didn't check at the last rest place.

But since the sirens were all going off, it had to be unreasonable.So everyone just nodded and didn't embarrass the front desk.

Seeing that they were easy to talk to, the girl blushed and added to You Huo: "I know you definitely didn't do it on purpose, how can a normal person do such a thing. So it's better to search to see if there is any dangerous thing secretly--"

You Huo didn't even look through it, and took out something from the side pocket of the backpack: "This?"

"..."

The girl at the front desk couldn't "steal" anymore.

As far as the speed of pulling out things is concerned, it is obvious that this handsome guy did it himself.

You Huo glanced at Yu Wen.

Yu Wen was too scared.

incredible!Half a minute ago, he scolded his brother for being out of his mind.

"Brother...how did you get the black woman's doll back?" He muttered softly.

You Huo: "It's easy."

Yu Wen: "..."

How blind is this?

……

What Youyou held in his hand was Heipo's doll.

Not the one he sewed himself, but the doll with the bluebell flower pattern on its feet that was placed on the bottom of the wooden frame at first.

Everyone was tortured for several days, and there was a shadow when they saw the doll.

People like Yu Yao and Chen Bin turned green with fright.

Who the hell would have thought that the boss would bring a souvenir when he went to the examination room for a stroll.

You Huo asked the front desk again: "It is stipulated that you can't bring it?"

Front desk: "The main reason is that the examinee is in danger in the rest area. If you really want, you can keep it."

Youyou took the doll back again.

front desk:"……"

Come on, awesome.

The girl's face was no longer red, she tapped on the keyboard, and quickly took out a stack of cards and handed them out to everyone: "The rest time this time is 5 days, and the room number is marked on the card. Affect other candidates to rest and recover. The top floor is the restaurant, which is open 24 hours. You can go to the store to buy other daily necessities or test equipment. Five days later, which is the last day of your rest, the department store has the most discounts at 7-10 am. Candidates in need do not miss it."

You Huo took the card and turned it over.

Sure enough, it was exactly the same format as the room card of the small hotel last time.

Name: You Huo

Admission ticket number: 860451-10062231-000A

Examined subjects: physics, foreign language (2/5)

Cumulative score: 27

Yu Wen scratched his head while holding his own card: "There is something wrong with the score calculation mechanism of this test. It is obvious that you get the most points for answering the questions, but everyone gets the same score in the end."

Moreover, you had bought things before, and after the same two exams, his remaining total score was still the lowest.

"It doesn't matter." You Huo didn't look much, and stuffed the card into his pocket.

Chen Bin interjected: "Not every exam is counted in this way. At least one of the five exams will be scored separately, and whoever gets the score will get it. I have encountered it before."

Yu Wen: "And then? How much did you take?"

Chen Bin looked depressed: "3 points."

Everyone was frightened by the news, and no one spoke until they got into the elevator.

……

Their room is just downstairs from the restaurant, which is very convenient.

When everyone was looking for a room with their cards, Lao Yu suddenly said, "Oh, that's not right."

"What's wrong?"

"All the dolls were given to the villagers. If you bring one back, there will be a villager who didn't get it? Then why did we get full marks for that question?"

You Huo said, "One more."

"what?"

You Huo held up the doll in his hand and said, "This is not suitable for the villagers."

Everyone froze for a moment, and noticed the patterns on the doll's legs.

"We didn't have this when we analyzed who the doll is before. Otherwise, such a string of patterns would be impossible to see."

You Huo said, "I didn't put this in."

"Then that's what you mean, this is also given by the black woman?" Yu Wen asked.

You Huo: "Yes."

"This is weird! There are 18 families in total, including the village chief's daughter, and there are 19 people in total. The black woman gave us 20 dolls? She can't count? Or did we make mistakes for the sake of confusion?"

You Huo pinched the doll's legs and said, "Maybe I missed a person corresponding to it."

As soon as the words came out, everyone stopped immediately.

What does it mean to miss someone?Of the 18 households in the village, no less than one household was given away.Is it still out?

No, even the question judged that they were all right.

So where can anyone miss in the examination room?

Everyone thought for two seconds.

His face suddenly turned green——

Of course there are people, aren't candidates?

Yu Wen was startled: "Brother, it's late at night, don't tell ghost stories."

So scared, everyone couldn't help but glanced at each other.

It seems that everyone could be a ghost at this time.

Then, they found that You Huo was looking at a person on the right.

It was Yu Yao who was watched.

She was the first to find the room and had just opened the door.

The hotel is very well heated, and she took off the big coat that Mike lent her.

The torn clothes and pants were naturally exposed.The clothes were torn at the shoulder line, and the trousers were torn at the cuffs.

She showed her pale ankle, and the tattoo of bluebells was on the right side.The light in the corridor was enough to see it clearly, exactly as it was on the doll's legs.

Yu Yao froze in place, his face pale.

Others have whiter faces than hers.

"...Sister?" Yu Wen's voice trembled, "You...what's the matter with you?"

Yu Yao lowered his eyes and his shoulders were shaking.

After a while, she raised her head and looked at You Huo, her eyes were red as if she had been crying: "When... did you find out?"

Even at this time, her voice was still very gentle.

You Huo didn't change his mood either, and he still had his usual sleepy look: "Me? I realized it was the last exam, so I'm sure it was just now."

Yu Wen was terrified: "Last game? What happened to the last game?"

You Huo: "The title says that there are 13 people dining, you can count the actual number with your fingers."

Yu Wen broke it silently: "13!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "No, there are 13 candidates, but the meal includes Hunter A, so there are 14... Does one count as a person?"

Everyone looked at Yu Yao in unison, their faces turning from white to blue.

"Sister...how did you—"

Yu Wen wanted to say "what on earth are you", but when the words came out, the boy who had just grown up softened his heart a bit: "who are you?"

Yu Yao held the doorknob tightly, exhaled lightly and said, "Come in, let me tell you, the corridor is not very convenient."

Who dares to enter?

Everyone was still hesitating, but You Huo nodded first.

……

Not long after, everyone gathered in Yu Yao's room.

Yu Yao stared at the doll for a long time, and finally said: "I said earlier that this is my first exam...in fact, I lied to you."

"I am indeed a test taker, but that was several years ago. I was unlucky at that time. The first test I encountered was the one we just finished. For the test of Gypsy, I will be with... Zhao Wentu."

……

She can speak a little Gypsy and has done simple translation for her companions.

After coming and going, she became the girl who appeared every day in Zhao Wentu's diary.

However, at that time, she didn't know that there was such a diary.

……

After Zhao Wentu was gone, there were only two candidates left.

Yu Yao, and a middle-aged man.

That night, the ghost hand came to the door as scheduled.

It was originally aimed at the middle-aged man, but in a hurry, the man dragged her to the front, pushed her forward, and sent her to the knife edge of the ghost hand.

"I still remember him saying, chop her up, don't look for me, please. The ghost's hand didn't cut it right, and the knife fell several times. It should be... very ugly." Yu Yao shrank into the chair, lost in memory .

Everyone couldn't bear to hear it: "Then you..."

"Then I should be buried in the woods or become a villager like other candidates, right?" Yu Yao said, "I thought it would be like that too, but maybe I was lucky."

She cried for Zhao Wentu all day, and couldn't help but went to the woods, trying to find Zhao Wentu's blood and see where he was dragged.

Worst of all... it would be good to build a grave for him.

In the end, she found the night, but she couldn't find any trace of Zhao Wentu, but picked up a card instead.

"What card?" You Huo asked.

Yu Yao said: "It's the kind of card that the invigilator asked you to draw. I don't know why one of them fell into the woods."

"What's written on the card?"

Yu Yao said, "Take the exam again."

"After I was... chopped, that card played a role, but because it was picked up, it only played half of the role."

Everyone asked in a daze: "Half more? What do you mean?"

"I didn't become a ghost hand or a villager like other candidates. But I didn't really come back to life and start the exam again." Yu Yao said: "I floated in the river in that village, and was picked up by the black woman."

You Huo suddenly remembered that the village chief once said that the black woman specialized in deadly work, once picked up a girl from the river, and dragged her back with a bamboo basket.

"I am obviously a candidate, but it seems to have become a part of the examination room."

The black woman who was the test question used witchcraft on Yu Yao, and it actually worked.

She used her dead daughter's hair to sew a doll just like Yu Yao, and Yu Yao, like those villagers, came back from the dead.

"It was like this when I woke up, with a big belly. The black woman said that she hid her daughter on me."

Everyone was horrified.

Then, they found a question: "Can you understand the black woman?"

"When I was part of the examination room, I could understand it." Yu Yao said: "But then I left, and after that I couldn't understand Gypsy, including the ones I knew, and I forgot. I can't pick it up at all."

"Leave?" You Huo said, "The driver said he didn't pick up anyone."

Yu Yao said, "Am I human? I don't even know."

She is like a bug made by mistake, between the candidate and the NPC.

It was not the intercity bus that she took to leave the examination room, but she walked for a long time on foot, traveled through an unknown number of places, and then followed a group of candidates into a certain examination by chance.

Maybe the system did it deliberately, maybe it was affected by other things.

Her memory is getting worse and worse. She can't remember many things before the exam. She only remembers that someone has hurt her and someone has protected her.

"At first I didn't know what I should do, so I just occasionally helped candidates." Yu Yao said, "Until a certain exam, I saw the person who hurt me again."

Yu Wen couldn't hold back, and choked out a dirty word: "Fuck? He didn't die?"

"I found out later that he had an exemption card, which he got from a casino." Yu Yao said, "He wanted to try to see if he could pass the foreign language test by luck, but in the end he found it was too difficult, so he used that card. gone."

When Yu Wen heard it, he became even more angry: "Damn it, he has an exemption card and pushed you out?! Then what happened to him?"

Yu Yao said: "He didn't do well in the exam, but he has a lot of tricks, and he likes to gamble. Zhang, after four years of hiding in the rest place, he didn’t get a new extension card, so he had to come out and continue the exam.”

"So did you find him?"

Before Yu Yao could speak, You Huo said, "I found it, it was in the last exam."

Everyone was stunned.

Yu Yao was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Who?"

Youyou said: "The one who finally became Hunter A."

Everyone was stunned.

After a long time, Yu Yao let out a soft breath: "I've been wanting to say sorry to you, I will be missed by the system many times. That violation... should have missed me, you were stained with ink, the system I misjudged the violation to you. This has happened before, and I have been looking for opportunities to make up for it."

You Huo said: "The compensation is fine."

Anyway, he was fined several times, and he himself had no loss.

"It's you." You Huo said, "Why don't you recognize Zhao Wentu when you see him?"

Yu Yao was silent for a long time, smiled wryly and said softly: "I have become like this, my face is not the same as before, maybe it was influenced by the black woman's daughter, I look like a young girl who has just grown up, he can't recognize it. Moreover, I don't know whether I am a human or a ghost, so... I won't let him down."

If we don't meet each other, then... Zhao Wentu, who remembered his name, was at least satisfied at the last moment.

As for regrets, keep them all in the diary.

He doesn't worry about it anymore, only those who watch it know.
