Flirting with old enemies in escape games

Ji Wuhuan thought so.

But just when he turned around and took two steps, he was stopped by Nie Yuan. The man walked to the small black hole, leaning his body forward a little, wanting to see the scene behind the hole.

His movements were cautious, his body tensed, showing a state of high alert.

Just when his face was only five or six centimeters away from the small hole, there was a swipe, and a long, pointed awl protruded out of it quickly!

He knew it.

The man had been prepared for a long time, and turned his face away expressionlessly, then took out a pack of explosives and weighed it in his hand.

Anyway, the door next door can't be opened, so it's better to blow up the wall directly. If someone is really inside, you don't have to chase after it if you become disabled.

Isn't it killing two birds with one stone, saving time, worry and effort?

When he took out the dynamite, all the players were amazed at how he carried such a dangerous thing. The first reaction was that he was joking or pretending, but it couldn't be true anyway.

But Zhang San didn't know it. Although he hadn't been in contact with him for a long time, he had a deep understanding. This man is a ruthless character who dares to speak and act.

He rushed forward: "Don't, don't, brother, madam! Big brother, madam! This place is so small, what if you hurt yourself?!"

"Then go out and hide away."

Nie Yuan pulled Ji Wuhuan to his side, then pushed him away in disgust.

The baby can hang on him, others can't.

"But here is such a bean curd project, what should I do if it will collapse once it is blown up?"

"I have the numbers."

In terms of blasting, Nie Yuan has very rich practical experience and is also professional.

Just as he was finishing speaking, the first few players who ran out just now yelled from the next door: "Damn, this door still can't fucking open!"

Nie Yuan raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he could only explode.

Ji Wuhuan raised the corners of her mouth and held him back, "Yuanyuan, let's tear down the door."

Although he understood that Nie Yuan wanted to intercept that figure, the risk of direct explosion was still too great. Apart from the things Zhang San considered, what if the explosion caused the dissatisfaction of the dead in the haunted house and caused the game to fail?

Although an agreement has been reached for the time being, their temporary agreement is obviously not very stable.

Maybe this place is the same as the haunted house in the ghost talk paradise, it has two sides, and the day and night are completely different.

Speaking of this... Ji Wuhuan recalled the scene he saw yesterday when he looked out of the window. In the gray mist, there seemed to be some faint shadows of buildings.

Could it be the other three corridors?

Because Nie Yuan "flyed" over from the haunted house opposite at night.

But it seems that something doesn't make sense.

Ji Wuhuan felt that he had caught something vaguely, but the clues were not enough to support the inference, so he could only suppress it first, put away the thoughts that were drifting away, and returned to his eyes.

After hearing what he said, Nie Yuan took tools and went directly to the front door of the next room. The doors of all the rooms here have the same structure and the same wooden material, and they also look tattered and weak, but why? Can't open it either.

Therefore, the door can only be opened directly. The reason why they didn't dare to do this the day before was because the administrator was still there. Now that the only npc is dead, what are they afraid of?

Several people worked together, and the door was easily removed with a hammer and a screwdriver.

As they imagined, there were heavy objects behind the door, so they couldn't be pushed open. Those heavy objects were stacked sofas, old broken refrigerators, TVs and other appliances. It took them a while to remove them all.

Originally, Ji Wuhuan thought that there would be some shocking secret hidden behind, but unexpectedly, the room was basically exactly the same as the room they lived in yesterday.

Dust all over the floor, rubbish piled up in the corners, scumbag walls, a dirty bed, a set of tattered tables and chairs, just because of the same tight windows, the air also exudes an unpleasant smell .

These are not the point, the point is that there is no one inside, and the black shadow is completely invisible.

where did it go

"Is it in the middle of the wall? Is there a secret passage?" Lu Jia and Lu B walked to the wall and knocked with their hands. There was a muffled sound, which was obviously solid. They knocked along the wall all the way to the small hole. Next to it, I found that the inside is solid.

There is no secret passage.

"Then that just now...is probably a ghost."

Since there is no secret passage, and it can disappear from a room without doors and windows in just a few minutes, there seems to be no other reason than ghosts.

But Ji Wuhuan was very concerned about the sound he heard. If it was really a ghost, why did he make a sound because he stepped on something?

It stands to reason that ghosts can float, and they can pass through walls, so how could they touch things?

This behavior is more like because of people.

Ji Wuhuan also carefully approached the small hole, and when he was still more than ten centimeters away, he suddenly found another figure passing by there!

how come? !

Ji Wuhuan immediately turned around and ran to the next door, but there was still no one there.

In this way, the thing that was secretly watching their actions... probably was a ghost!

Then a new problem appeared again.

Who is this shadow?Why does it spy on the player's behavior?

Originally they thought that as long as they found the administrator today, they would know the truth. However, the administrator died. Not only did the truth not come to the surface, but a series of new mysteries emerged instead.

Could that black shadow just now be the murderer?But if the murderer is already dead, then why does the ghost of the deceased linger on?

Ji Wuhuan pinched his earlobe, then habitually wanted to push his glasses, and touched the bridge of his nose until he realized that he no longer needed to wear glasses.

"How do you feel?" Nie Yuan gently took his hand.

"It's okay, I'm just a little sleepy." Ji Wuhuan leaned on him naturally, and let out a hache lazily. When he heard other players discussing the problem, he also took out a pen and paper, and began to record the existing ones. clue.

After last night, they tentatively reached an agreement with the dead who controlled the evil spirits in the haunted house, and the players would find the murderer on their behalf and avenge him.

Judging from the situation in the second half of the night, most of these dead people belonged to one head, so the people who killed them were either the same person or a group.

Compared with the former, Ji Wuhuan is more inclined to the latter, because as Lu Jia said, unless a person was born in a time of war, even if a person kills people from birth, he may not be able to kill so many people for a lifetime. people.

There are 300 haunted houses alone, and some of them have more than one dead person.

Moreover, judging from the time span of the haunted house, Nie Yuan has entered both an old house from 40 to [-] years ago and a modern duplex building with a fashionable style, so it does not seem like the kind of perverted serial murder that appeared in a period of time mad.

In addition to the phone call in the couple's haunted house, a man mentioned: "Hehe, have the eyes been gouged out? Be more complete, we need a lot more."

Although I don't know who that man is, but judging from the sudden explosion reaction of the evil spirits, it is very likely that he is also an accomplice of the murderer.

So Ji Wuhuan thought it was more likely that a gang committed the crime, but he didn't know if they were purely psychopaths who couldn't get used to a happy life, or if they had other purposes.

If it wasn't for the fact that the body lacked only limbs and limbs, Ji Wuhuan would have wondered if it was some kind of large-scale transnational organ trafficking organization.

But in fact, the real organ trading is not that simple. The human body’s rejection reaction is very fatal, and a lot of inspections are required before an organ transplant operation. At least it is impossible to find someone on the road, let alone 40 years ago. The level of surgery is not so developed.

Then it's more likely...

"Cult." Nie Yuan suddenly spit out two words: "Baby, do you still remember a dungeon I experienced before? Number C4437921."

"Before?" Ji Wuhuan shook his head lightly: "I don't remember." Although he has read all the game materials of Nie Yuan, after all, he did not experience it personally, so it is naturally impossible to remember it so clearly.

"I went to an isolated village to investigate missing persons. When players arrived there, they disappeared frequently. The corpses they found had their chests ripped open and their hearts removed..." When Nie Yuan said this, Ji Wuhuan I remembered.

It was a dungeon named "Cult Nightmare Village" by Jiang Mingwei.

After the players arrived at the village, they were killed one by one at night, and their hearts were taken out alive. At first they thought it was some kind of monster, but they didn't realize until later that there was no monster, and the real culprit was the people in the village.

These people believe in a god called "Mountain God". Their purpose of deceiving players is to dig out their hearts and sacrifice them to gain the ability of immortality.

This "mountain god" is of course not a mountain god in the traditional sense of folklore in reality, but a monster with a human head and a spider body, who is violent and likes to eat people's hearts.

And those villagers are believers of this so-called "mountain god". There are only about a hundred people in the village, because they killed all other people who did not believe in the "mountain god" and the people in the next village.

For more than 50 years, old believers died and new believers took over, killing people and giving their hearts, but no one thought about it. What about eternal life?

In the end, Nie Yuan led the villagers into the cave and set fire to the entire village to complete the game.

"In that case, it is indeed possible..."

If it is really a cult, then it must be someone who peeped at them just now, no wonder they made noises, and it can also explain why the murderer can live for so long.

For the old murderer is dead, and the new one is alive.

What the dead want is not only the life of a certain "murderer", but the life of all murderers!Completely destroy this cult that ruined their happiness.

"That's even more wrong. Since he is a living person, why couldn't he be found just now?" Xu Lan's male companion questioned: "We have also checked, there should be no secret passage."

Just after finishing speaking, the sound of Wang Wu and Li Si knocking on the wall came from the wall next door. It should be that they are still looking for a switch like a secret room.

Zhang San was a little confused: "So is it a human or a ghost?"

Xu Lan said: "I think it's a ghost. If it's really a human being, or a cult, how can this place be hidden? How can you explain the black shadow just now? That or those murderers are dead, it's just the ghost hiding, and The dead don't know where it's hiding... Maybe it's the body we're after."

She analyzed it logically and logically, and the other players also nodded in agreement.

But Lujia said, "I think it's a human being."

"why?"

As for why, she replied: "My intuition."

A woman's intuition is very reliable at certain times.

Ji Wuhuan gently turned Yinghuo Shouxin, trying to think about this issue from another angle.

The relationship between the administrator and those murderers.

At present, it seems that the administrator must know the truth, otherwise he was killed in the night when he was suspected of him yesterday. This behavior is obviously to silence him.

He didn't leave here and didn't show his face after explaining the main rules of the game, and he was probably controlled and threatened by those people.

When Ji Wuhuan asked him if he would lie to them before, he once showed some strange expressions. At that time, the players thought it was "doubt", but now it seems that it may not be that simple.

At the same time, his original answer was "it depends on what the problem is." It also showed that he was hiding a secret.

This was something Ji Wuhuan guessed from the beginning, but at that time, because he was an npc, the players didn't dare to be violent easily.

As a result, he was killed last night, and all the secrets disappeared.

In this way, the task issued by the administrator is likely to be requested by those people, which indirectly shows that the administrator is not the murderer. Otherwise, if he suddenly changed a task, the player would be dumbfounded.

After all, Rubik's Cube's mission is to "make them complete the task of the administrator."

Therefore, the administrator basically ruled out the possibility of being a "murderer" or suspended animation, or having twins.

When Ji Wuhuan was thinking, the players who thought "the murderer is a human" had already argued with the players who thought "the murderer was a ghost".

It's not that they deliberately raised the bar, it's just that judging from the current situation, both scenarios are indeed very possible.

The players were divided into two factions, each with their own ideas, but no one could come up with key clues to prove it.

"It must be a ghost, otherwise why did that person disappear suddenly? There is no secret room here."

"How can you be sure that there is no secret room? It's probably just that we haven't found it, and if it's really a ghost, how can it make a sound? And do ghosts need to use needles to kill people?"

"That's really bad, who knows?"

Ji Wuhuan felt a little headache from the quarrel, rubbed the center of her brows, and interrupted them: "Stop arguing, actually that's not the point."

"Can……"

"Anyway, whether it's a human or a ghost, something is here, and our purpose is to find them."

Ji Wuhuan's train of thought was very clear, and she was not distracted by these messy clues at all.

In fact, what is the truth, it doesn't matter whether it is a human or a ghost, the important point is where are they hiding now?

Since the player cannot leave, and since the ghost of the deceased stays here, the murderer must also be here. In contrast, whether the "murderer" is a person, a group of people, or not a person at all is not so important. important.

The important thing is to find them.

How to find them?

Ji Wuhuan didn't expect that they would have to turn into detectives to find out the story behind the haunted house today after they had worked so hard to complete the task of "Night Watchman" the night before...

Back to the topic.

"There are still many unopened room doors on this floor and..." Ji Wuhuan pointed to the window: "There seems to be a building on the opposite side, maybe there was a way to go there, but it was blocked, we have to find a way to go and see ."

Actions are more important than pointless arguments.

There are still so many unexplored places in this place, it's not too late to check it out before discussing it.

The players agreed with him one after another, just as they were discussing the division of labor.

Ji Wuhuan, who was thinking with his head down, suddenly heard someone calling his name.

"Huh? Ji Wuhuan?"

People will have an instinctive reaction when they hear their own name, not to mention Ji Wuhuan who is thinking about a problem, he subconsciously answers without thinking about it, and only realizes something is wrong when he looks up!

How could someone call out his real name in the game? !

Nie Yuan beside him also showed a little bit of astonishment. The two quickly adjusted their expressions as they looked at each other, and looked over as if nothing had happened, but found that no one noticed that he responded.

There are two or three players gathered around the corner, seeming to find something.
