Chapter 837 Dying in the warmest moment
The second scene replay ended. The deducers had mastered the rules and walked directly out of the room and gathered in the corridor.
Even the Dark Star member opened the door and took a look outside. When he found that no one was missing, his expression was obviously a little stunned, as if he did not expect that none of the people participating in the free activities died.
This makes his avoidance look more like a joke.
However, he did not miss the sound of the blacksmith running to Chen Run's room. He thought that if such terror was coming towards him, he would not be sure to escape death like Chen Run.
So he should continue to cower obediently. With this thought in mind, he retracted his head and closed the door again.
"Hey, are you okay? What happened just now, you-" Chen Run's friend wanted to ask more questions, but found that Chen Run was shaking all over, his face was pale, and he looked obviously frightened.
Zhang Yu and Lan Wu couldn't see what happened with their own eyes, so they were a little surprised that this person was still alive. After all, Chen Run's scream was so penetrating that they could hear it clearly in the room.
However, seeing Yu Xing's dull expression, I knew that he was probably just lucky and there was nothing worth paying more attention to.
Chen Run held the medicine bottle in his hand as if it were a hot potato. He did not answer his friend's words, but walked quickly to the blacksmith's room and put the medicine back to its original location almost like dropping a bomb.
"Don't come to me next time. The medicine will be returned to you." Chen Run turned to look at the motionless blacksmith sitting at the table and muttered, regardless of whether the blacksmith could hear it or not, he was just minding his own business. He stretched out his hand and bowed.
His friend frowned: "Are you scared?"
Chen Run gritted his teeth: "Nonsense, I was the one who almost died! I don't know yet whether the protection of the room will be restored..."
His friend became anxious and gave him a slap on the shoulder: "I know you were almost there just now, but don't be the Riddler. Tell me directly why you provoked the blacksmith!"
“I, I took his medicine, it was a prop for us.”
"You can't take these...don't take anything, not even you."
Chen Run was still dizzy after what happened just now. He was more concerned about the cracking sound he heard at that time, which was what he heard after being thrown to the ground by the blacksmith.
It was after the subtle cracking sound that the blood in the corridor broke through his door and poured in one after another.
It is conceivable that what was broken should be the protection of his room by the rules.
However, although the second scene recurrence has ended and everything will be reset afterwards, the system did not tell him whether the protection of the room will be reset?
What if this is a one-off!
If the scene happens next time, and the blood can freely enter his room without him breaking the rules, then he will only die an hour late.
He no longer had much energy to investigate the clues in other people's rooms. Now he just wanted to figure out the protection mechanism of the room, so he decided to go to the lobby to find the old shopkeeper!
He saw Yu Xing chatting with the old shopkeeper behind the counter before, which meant that the old shopkeeper was a communicable and temporarily harmless NPC. If he wanted to know about the room, he could only go to the old shopkeeper.
Chen Run thought this way, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the hesitation in his friend's eyes.
The two of them were also familiar with each other. As soon as he saw the look in his eyes, he knew that his friend must also have the idea of taking possession of something in a certain room as his own, but he didn't take action in the previous round.
The two of them acted together. His action of taking the medicine did not avoid the other party at all. It was fair and aboveboard. The other party must have known that he had taken the medicine...
“Are you trying to make fun of me?” Chen Run took a deep breath and his tone became calm.
If he had no doubts in his heart, the other party would have taken away the things he liked, but his friend didn't take them. He was obviously worried about something.
You are so vigilant, but you don't even want to remind him. Aren't you just waiting to see what happens after he takes the medicine bottle?
The friend's face changed: "Whatever you said has reached this level. Shouldn't you pay attention to this kind of thing? I have no obligation to always take care of you, and I just didn't think of reminding you at the time. Don't say anything." It sounds so ugly.”
Chen Run held his breath.
He can finally understand why the two Dark Stars are so sensitive to being used as cannon fodder. Sometimes, taking advantage of them is not necessarily about being arrogant, but about being caught off guard.
As to whether there are obligations or not, isn't this just changing the concept? If teammates don't need to provide help to each other, what is the need for the concept of a team?
What's more, you are not asking others to sacrifice anything of themselves to help him, just a verbal reminder is enough.
Although they are separate people, they came together this time, and they said they would form an alliance from the beginning.
He couldn't even trust this guy anymore anyway, so there was no point in continuing. He glanced at the four people not far away who seemed to be watching a show, and he let out a long sigh.
“I give up this task.”
His friend raised his voice: "Hey! Wait a minute. Although you were almost close this time, at least you have found a death condition. Isn't this more beneficial to us? Why are you quitting at this time?"
"You can continue as long as you want, I won't play with you anymore." Chen Run rolled his eyes and walked towards the hall.
The friend who was left behind stood there speechlessly, looking at his back and then at the tightly closed door on the other side. He couldn't help but cursed: "Damn, no one is reliable."
Obviously, he planned to continue, so after giving Yu Xing and the others a wary look, he headed deeper into the corridor. He also wanted to investigate the room over there.
“What a hug.” Zhang Yu sighed, “That's it?”
"Oops." Lan Wu smiled and shook his head. "Scenes like this are really common, with teammates backstabbing or something like that. But looking at the fact that their friendship is not deep enough, they should have been more careful."
Hua Subai chuckled lightly and turned to look at Yu Xing, who was thinking about something: "What are you thinking about?"
"I think this guy named Chen Run is quite smart." Yu Xing's eyes fell across the corridor in the direction of the hall, "At least he is aware of the problem."
Just as Chen Run was worried, the protective space in his room had not been put back together since it was shattered. This protection seemed to be a one-time thing, because after the blacksmith disappeared, Yu Xing did not feel the protection coming again.
Another point is that through the branches, he saw that the room opposite him was occupied by blood without any hindrance.
He immediately thought of the key: "The destroyed rooms cannot protect us again. Under this mechanism, the number of gamers the hotel can accommodate every night will continue to decrease."
There are twenty places available today. After destroying two rooms, there will only be eighteen places tomorrow. This is still the best situation.
The tour group will stay in a hotel for a total of six nights, and he has this intuition that choosing a hotel is the right thing to do. Those who stay in the townspeople's homes will definitely not make the same decision tomorrow.
At that time, the places in the hotel will have to be competed for.
Chen Run was okay. He went to the old shopkeeper and there was a high probability that he could get a room again. Anyway, judging from the randomness of the old shopkeeper in selecting rooms, the old man didn't care about such trivial issues as who lived in which room.
"But captain, if we complete the side mission tonight, we should not encounter such a situation again when we stay in the hotel." Zhang Yu, who understood Yu Xing's thoughts, was still more rigorous, "The number of available rooms Will it stay at 18 forever?”
"Oh, you really underestimated the dangers of Nanshui Town. Will he let us sleep comfortably for five nights? It's for charity." A smile flashed in Huasu Bai's eyes, "Xing, this of yours The new team members are too innocent, and they have never been beaten by the system at first glance.”
That's true.
Zhang Yu silently made a motion of zipping up his mouth.
He has only been a deducer for a short time. Although the system went crazy and increased the frequency of deductions not long after he joined, no matter who is carrying it in Broken Mirror, he can guide them to avoid most of the pitfalls of the system.
At least in his thinking, he does not think that the system is a vicious existence. Instead, he believes that the system is the strongest guarantee for the players to survive in each copy.
Without a system, they would have no persona. Without a persona, none of the sacrificial props or special abilities would be used. When the time comes, wouldn't it mean that they would be unilaterally abused by ghosts when they enter the dungeon?
And he has been keenly aware that some copies are completely controlled by the system, but some copies seem to have their own consciousness, and the system will fight against that consciousness, giving more initiative to the deducer, which can be regarded as giving the deducer They fought for a lot of living space.
He always heard Brother Zhao and others saying that the system was hiding something and had some conspiracy. It was probably because his level was too low, and such discussions had nothing to do with him.
Hua Subai's eyes widened, and he seemed to see through the meaning in Zhang Yu's eyes. He suddenly leaned close to Zhang Yu's ear and said in a lowered voice: "You think the system is good to you because the system wants to take away more precious things from you." s things."
“Don't believe it too much, simple child.”
“If you don't believe it, ask your captain when you have a chance, but not now, he might be listening~”
After speaking, he straightened up and returned to the normal distance.
Zhang Yu looked at Yu Xing for help. He knew that the captain must have heard what he just said.
However, Yu Xing nodded slightly towards him, actually acknowledging what Boss Hua said.
Then, Yu Xing started talking again: "There may be new side missions in the next few days. The hotel has a lot of secrets. What we have come into contact with today are only the former residents, not the hotel itself."
But this is not what they need to consider now.
“Let's go on.”
They only looked at three rooms, and there were seven more waiting for them.
The room they wanted to look at next belonged to Sun Yunyun.
Sun Yunyun has been mentioned in the clues about women and twin brothers. She is also the pudgy girl Yu Xing saw in the revival scene.
In her room, several people found a graffiti notebook. There was not much description of the snow disaster in it, and the focus was on the girl's own bad experience.
When she first moved into the room, she shared it with another girl. At that time, there were more than just two girls in the hotel. There was the lonely woman holding the child, Xiao Yangyang's mother, the helpless old lady, and the tailor's daughter. , and some other young girls, there must be dozens in total.
The hotel is overcrowded and there are many people, which consumes more resources. In addition, every time they go out of the hotel to look for usable supplies in the surrounding area, due to the difference in physical strength, the women do not contribute more than the men. The people in the hotel Gradually, I had other thoughts.
You can't make the same contribution, but you eat the same amount of food. It's okay for a day or two, but as time goes by, dissatisfaction will grow infinitely.
The supplies available to women are getting less and less. Even when they go out to look for supplies, they often find that the men have already divided up the supplies as soon as they arrive at a place where supplies may be found, leaving nothing for them.
There is nothing we can do if we don't have enough ability. It's a disaster now, there's a shortage of food, and no one has to give in to anyone.
The women with family members were okay. The woman holding the baby and the old lady with limited mobility were also taken care of by everyone's little kindness. Helpless girls like Sun Yunyun and her roommates were in a miserable situation in this situation. stand up.
As expected, the bodies of girls without family members were used as bargaining chips. They had to "voluntarily" give their bodies in exchange for supplies in order to survive.
Sun Yunyun's beautiful roommate is living a better life because of this, but the supplies she gets are all exchanged with her roommate's body, and her roommate will not share any of them with Sun Yunyun.
She seemed to be the only one living the most miserable life in the whole hotel. She began to hate other women. Why, why even at this time, other women had an easier life than her.
She doesn't use the same method to exchange for supplies, not because she is noble, but because she is really not good-looking and has a bloated figure. No one likes her, and she doesn't even get the chance to “fall”.
But this kind of hatred did not last long. It was probably fate. The women in the hotel died one after another. Some died of illness, some froze to death when they went out to find supplies, some committed suicide due to depression, and some...just like the tailor's My daughter was thrown out because she was crazy.
Gradually, she and the woman holding the baby, whose name she had refused to tell anyone, were the only ones left in the hotel.
She began to feel that some people were looking at her strangely.
The look in those eyes was filled with disdain at first, but as time went by, it was replaced by a chilling longing.
Not all men are so obscene, but some people have gotten used to it before and can't stop.
She finally exchanged her body for supplies. After being hungry for a long time, she locked herself in the room and wolfed down the food while crying.
Sun Yunyun felt ashamed of her previous hatred for other women, because now she knew how shameful, embarrassing and hopeless such a life was.
She doesn't often agree, and always refuses more. She should be grateful that these people still have a trace of hypocrisy and don't let their animal side become a matter of course. She refuses, and there are few times when she is forced.
So she was still living a life of hunger and cold. The longer time passed, the less supplies she could find, and what she had became less and less.
And she was really cold. When the snowstorm just started, they were warm enough in the hotel. They had a chance of freezing to death only when they went out. But now the temperature is getting lower and lower. Even if she stays in the room, she feels like It could become a corpse at any moment.
She just wanted to be warmer. Even if she starved to death, she didn't want to be so cold.
Perhaps she has gone crazy, she wants everyone to die and then take their quilts and clothes as her own.
Only little Yangyang, who lost her parents, can still make her have some humanity. That child is so good.
Until one night, the woman holding the baby who was very aloof in the hotel and hardly communicated with anyone suddenly cried and knocked on someone else's door, begging for something warm. Sun Yunyun thought, oh, are you stupid? That woman is looking for people who have made such requests and were rejected.
The woman is much prettier than Sun Yunyun, and she is a widow with no one to protect her. Several wretched guys have already set their sights on the woman, but unfortunately the woman always refuses her coldly, with a look that looks like trash.
No matter how hard the life has been, a woman has never compromised. This time, for the sake of her children, she has humbled herself more than anyone else. However, a man who has been rejected many times feels extremely happy when he sees her like this. How can he give her any help? ?
Sun Yunyun felt numb listening to the woman's cry. The woman also lent her half a catty of rice. He was the only person willing to lend her food.
She can't give anything in return now because she's about to freeze to death.
There were strange noises in the corridor, and when the sound of the woman's collapse was heard, everyone finally couldn't help but open the door to see what was going on.
Sun Yunyun saw Xiao Yangyang's body. The only woman who helped her killed the only pure and kind boy. This realization made her brain extremely confused and frightened. At this moment, madness completely wiped out the last bit of humanity in her.
She was left with only one idea.
Can I give her a woman's clothes and quilt?
Sun Yunyun's picture album is very thick, covering everything from the very beginning to the time when the scene reappears.
This girl is very talented in painting and can always use some simple images to achieve the meaning she wants to convey.
The painting style in the front is still normal. The little person representing herself is always frowning or breaking down and crying in a miserable environment.
From the moment when girls began to trade their bodies for supplies in the hotel, the picture became more and more depressing. The little figure representing the beautiful roommate was huge. Sun Yunyun's little figure squatted in the corner of the picture, looking at it with envy and dark eyes. other side.
When Sun Yunyun changed food for the first time, the whole picture began to distort.
I don't know if it was the depression in her heart that caused her hand to hold the brush unsteadily. The lines were crooked. Except for the little man representing Sun Yunyun, the other characters that appeared in the painting turned into monsters with ferocious faces.
On the last page, Sun Yunyun drew a big cross with a paintbrush.
A line of words was written in the blank space of the cross.
【If I could go back, I would die in the warmest time. The days of perseverance are just torture. Even those who died at the beginning were happier than me. 】
“This is...too tragic.”
In the silent room, only Zhang Yu made a sound.
Watching a living person gradually despair in the struggle is more profound than the shock of facing a ghost directly.
The time spent looking at the picture album was longer than the time spent in the previous three rooms, because just understanding the pictures was more difficult than facing the text directly.
“Disasters can push human nature to this level.” Lan Wu blinked.
In his original world, there seems to be no history of any major disasters. If you think about it carefully, it can even be said that there is no history.
He didn't realize it at all at the time, but after being brought out by Medusa and getting rid of his NPC identity, he suddenly realized that his world was so thin, as thin as a makeshift framework.
It is indeed all false.
Later, Medusa asked him to learn the common sense of this world, and he also paid attention to history, and then he realized that the real world would have such a long and huge historical evolution.
He has seen the birth of mankind in books, and has also seen the subsequent divisions, mergers, and annexations. In different countries, there are records of great disasters.
Floods, earthquakes, plagues.
Those horrific descriptions were still too far away from Lan Wu after all. The **** death toll was condensed into a series of numbers. He studied them in a cram-like manner, but he couldn't relate to them.
It was not until today, after reading the confessions of the people trapped in the hotel during the snowstorm, that he finally realized that in addition to ghosts and monsters, natural disasters are also so terrifying. Especially... Without the ability to maintain order, madness and chaos will make people become such miserable and hateful people.
"One code should be the same. People are social animals, and the atmosphere in the group determines the behavior of the individual." Zhang Yu looked away from the picture album, "You think, if the people here respect each other from the beginning, work together Working together, taking turns to find supplies, and then distributing them rationally will make a difference."
“Perhaps death is still inevitable, but at least people like Sun Yunyun will not be so desperate before death. She may look forward to living.”
"This is too idealistic." Lan Wu really understands how difficult it is for such a scene to happen. There are always more selfish people than friendly and capable people, because selfish people only need to keep themselves alive, but selfless people still To bear the burden of other people's lives.
How many people can do it?
Look at the comparison between the number of players on the right path and the other two lines. The more powerful the level, the fewer people on the right path.
Oh, I almost forgot, he himself is also a righteous person.
Lan Wu couldn't help but laugh. As he said, he had no idea what the system's reason was for making such an evaluation of him. He was still half a blank slate and was still learning many things.
“It's almost done.” Yu Xing said suddenly.
Lan Wu was stunned for a moment, thinking he was saying "It's almost enough". After all, their time was limited. He put back those wandering thoughts and said obediently: "I'm sorry."
Unexpectedly, Yu Xing put down the picture album: "I mean, we have almost found the clues. I already have an idea on how to solve it."
Lan Wu: “?”
Zhang Yu: “?”
Hua Subai raised his eyebrows curiously: "Aren't there still six rooms left to look at? Aren't you afraid that the conclusion you have drawn now is wrong?"
"Watching any more is just to watch the experiences of six poor people." Yu Xing glanced at Sun Yunyun, who was standing still in the room, "The method to solve the problem of recurring scenes is very simple, and the prompts are straightforward enough. In fact, I don't understand why the task process requires us to get to know each resident.”
Although Zhang Yu was shocked by the captain's statement, he still instinctively thought after hearing this: "Well, deepen the characterization? Don't let the clues in their rooms go to waste? Or hope that through the experiences of these residents, we can have a better understanding of the previous snow disaster. Deep understanding?”
The barrage followed them through two rounds of scene replays, and they also saw the living conditions of the four residents.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room is also a bit gloomy. Although the life of a deduction is life and death, and you don't know when you will die, at least they have enough resistance to danger, and you can get a lot after passing the deduction copy.
It's not like in a hotel, where no matter how long you have to live in pain, it gets worse and worse, and there is no hope at all.
There has never been a time when they were so serious while watching a live broadcast!
At this moment, some people focused on Zhang Yu's speech in order to liven up the atmosphere.
Your kid must have done very well in Chinese when you were in school. Why don't you do reading comprehension here? ]
[Enrich the character's personality, promote the development of the plot, and set off the character's mood]
[You misunderstood the above, the next two are the function of environmental description]
[I am more curious, Xing said he knows the solution, what will it be? ]
[Kill the old shopkeeper (not)]
[Smash the clock in the lobby so that there is no reference for the time in the hotel! In this way, it cannot be reproduced exactly once an hour! ]
[Yes, I'm just talking about why there is a clock in the lobby. It looks wrong. There is nothing else. You are really a little genius upstairs]
[I was just trying to make ends meet, I didn't expect you to take it seriously]
[But it does make sense. I suddenly realized that if the wall clock in the hall is related to the time of the task, wouldn't it be reasonable? ]
[What's reasonable? What if the task time is based on the system time? To say the least, it really has something to do with the wall clock. If the clock is smashed, how can we judge that the task was completed before six o'clock┐(-`)┌ ]
The discussion was lively on the barrage. On the screen, Hua Subai laughed and agreed: "It's a bit strange to say that these residents describe the same period of life from different perspectives, as if they are deliberately showing something."
He walked slowly to Sun Yunyun and touched it with his hand: "And it's not that they want to show it themselves. You see, the residents are like lifelike props. It's more like they are using the residents as a medium to display something else." It's what we want to see."
Hearing his words, something flashed through Yu Xing's mind quickly.
This time he did not let the inspiration slip away. Instead, he closed his eyes and tried to capture the thoughts that had just been touched.
Performance, medium, residents who are neither living nor ghostly...
The time doesn't match, the mechanical sound is hard to catch, and the smell is strange.
The dual Nanshui Town of real and false, the townspeople are there when there are people, and disappear when there are no people...
Thinking about it this way, Zhang Yu said that when he and Lan Wu sneaked out of Buwangju, the street was quiet and no one was seen.
But when the tour guide took them away according to the procedure, people were coming and going on the street.
Isn't this a demonstration specifically for the deducers?
Yu Xingyou's blue eyes lit up.
He seemed to have thought of a reason that could connect all the abnormalities. If this was the case, everything he experienced after entering Nanshui Town would be reasonable.
"You are deliberately reminding me." Yu Xing looked sideways at Hua Subai, "When did you think of it?"
Hua Subai blinked innocently: "What hint? What did you think of?"
Yu Xing: “…”
He became more and more certain that Hua Subai figured out the nature of Nanshui Town's current situation earlier than he did.
This conclusion made him a little surprised and a little unconvinced. Hua Subai was so passive and sabotaged, but he could actually be faster than him.
To be honest, this is the first time Yu Xing and Hua Subai have entered the same deduction. Before that, he was not sure how strong Hua Subai's deduction ability was. He could only be sure that this was a weird and dangerous dog-skin plaster.
Unexpectedly... It turns out that Hua Subai's IQ is so high, no wonder he can trick actors. He should have thought of it a long time ago. If his brain could not keep up with his strength, Hua Subai would have been killed by the actor in revenge.
Yu Xing tilted his head and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Heh, that's really interesting.
But when did the person named Hua get more information than him?
They have basically been doing activities together since they got off the bus, at least the general process is the same. If Hua Subai saw through it before him, the biggest advantage should be the other party's understanding of the evil **** of Yin Yang City.
He only learned about the existence of Yin-Yang City on the Yin-Yang Corridor, and it was only after being told by the actor that he had an idea of the evil gods of Yin-Yang City.
But he still doesn't know which evil **** is causing trouble in Nanshui Town and what his abilities are.
Hua Subai... Yu Xing is already guessing that Hua Subai and the evil **** represented by Gui Chenshu must have a close relationship, and maybe they are also clones. In this case, Hua Subai must know the specific situation of the evil **** in Yin Yang City, After exploring Nanshui Town, you can quickly determine which evil god's power is responsible.
Hmm, that makes sense.
Yu Xing found a very reliable excuse for the fact that he was not as good as Hua Subai this time, which relieved him a lot.
He thought that the doctor was his avatar, but it had nothing to do with the main line of the event. The evil **** who really wanted to give out the tickets definitely had something to do with time.
There should be an evil **** in Yin Yang City who controls the power of time, but I don't know what his specific function is.
“Ahem, Captain.” Zhang Yu came over, “So Captain, what did you think of? Can you share it with your curious teammates?”
Yu Xing cruelly rejected his curious teammates and said with a smile: "I can't say what I think of because it will be heard by someone, so it's not the time yet."
It will definitely be heard.
Now that he has thought clearly, every move of the tour group may have not escaped "it"'s eyes from beginning to end.
Hua Subai probably had this reason too, so he couldn't tell him directly, but had to go round and round to remind him.
Zhang Yu scratched his heart and liver.
“Then captain, what is the solution to the mission you mentioned? You can always say this!”
“Oh, this.” After figuring out the world view of Nanshui Town, Yu Xing almost forgot about the side mission. He said casually, “I'm going out to buy something.”
Zhang Yu: “???”
Lan Wu is also curious. Since Yu Xing said that the solution to the task is very simple, and the meaning has nothing to do with the stories of the residents, does it mean that they think it is complicated?
Hua Subai tilted his head: "Where to go shopping?"
"The main street canteen." Yu Xing said, and walked out along the corridor without anyone accompanying him.
"Huh?" Lan Wu was surprised, "Are you free to leave the hotel now? I thought we couldn't go out before dawn."
"You just ask yourself to add rules to yourself." Hua Subai smiled and leaned against the wall, this time like a red-fluttered moth with folded wings, "Ha~ Besides, even if the rules don't allow you to leave the hotel, you Do you think people like Yu Xing can't find a way to avoid the rules?”
He yawned: "Forget it, wait until he comes back to solve the task, and you can sleep peacefully for a while."
“Especially you two little ones, if you don't sleep, you will suffer a lot tomorrow.”
Ming, will you suffer tomorrow?
Zhang Yu suddenly had a bad premonition.
So he really needs to go to bed quickly, otherwise he won't have the strength to escape tomorrow.
Yu Xing entered the hall from the corridor and glanced at the wall clock.
The time points to one forty-five, and if you do the math, you should be in time.
The oil lamp in the hall had not been extinguished, and two shadows were reflected on the wall.
"The woman waited and waited on the bridge. She waited for who knows how many years, and finally waited for her father to return home. She cried with joy, and when she wanted to rush over and hug her father, she realized that she could no longer move."
Chen Run, who came to the old man to solve the room problem, had a dull look on his face, sat next to the old man and read him a short story.
The new room key was in the old man's hand. The old man changed his sitting position into a comfortable position. Apparently, he used the change of room as a threat to capture a new storyteller.
“The elderly father was also eager to return home to see his daughter. He saw a new statue of a woman erected on the bridge. He felt that the statue's eyebrows were very kind, but no matter how beautiful the stone statue was, it could not match his desire to see his daughter's heart.”
Chen Run didn't have the ability to talk nonsense, so he just read from the book. When he saw Yu Xing coming out from the corner of his eye, he suddenly got stuck.
The old man opened his eyes in a daze: "Why don't you read it anymore?"
Yu Xing looked at this scene with a smile and made a "hush" gesture to Chen Run.
Chen Run didn't want to create any complications, so he pretended not to see him - the old man's eyesight was very bad anyway, so as long as he didn't make any noise, he probably wouldn't know that someone was leaving the hotel in the middle of the night.
“The woman just watched her father pass him by, tears streaming down her face. She couldn't imagine how anxious her father would be when he couldn't find him when he got home..."
Chen Run's voice was gradually left behind. Yu Xing carefully opened the door of the hotel and got out in a flash.
From the alley, you can see a corner of the main street. Although the lights of the shops are on, the street is empty and deserted.
He stepped onto the main street and observed it.
The vendors in the street shops are still there. They don't seem to be interested in the deserted streets. They are all doing their own thing. Some are sleeping, and some are flipping the goods in the shop. They will raise their heads when they see people walking by outside. Have a look.
Seeing Yu Xing alone, the vendors had no intention of talking to him, let alone showed any surprise.
Yu Xing did not waste any time and walked directly to the nearest grocery store according to the distribution of shops he had seen before.
The grocery store is the most inclusive of all the shops on Baibao Street. He spent money to buy a few boxes of matches and returned to the hotel without stopping.
The other three people are still waiting for him in the corridor, and the only remaining individual who has not given up the mission is also looking here.
“One box per person, don't hesitate to burn them all.” Yu Xing distributed the matches to the three of them, “Be quick and don't give it time to react.”
“Burn people?” Lan Wu was confused.
"Aren't these residents cold? Since they want to die at the warmest time, then use fire." Yu Xing said, "Follow the normal process and collect all the residents' information. There should be people who have obtained the ignition tools in the hotel. There are many ways, but it's too troublesome, so it's better to just buy it outside.”
These residents are not real people.
They are at most... the manifestation of some residents' obsessions. They are not alive, and naturally they will not be burned to death. Since they ended their lives in the hotel many years ago, there has only been one way to die.
At any rate, their obsession is coldness.
As long as they don't get cold, what does it matter if they are hot?
"Then, why do you have to hurry up? Are you not giving anyone time to react? Will they suddenly move?" Zhang Yu was a little worried.
"You can't say for sure. We didn't follow the process and missed so much information that 'it' wanted to show. Maybe 'it' will get angry and do something to stop us." Yu Xing smiled and spread his hands, "So Just hurry up and finish it all at once.”
The people dispersed. Yu Xing saw that they were in about the same position, so he took out two matches, lit them, and threw them at the twin brothers in front of him.
Their clothes should not be that flammable, but as soon as the flame on the match touched them, it suddenly turned into a raging fire, spreading along the burning point. In the blink of an eye, the twin brothers were ignited into two **** of fire. people.
The flames did not ignite anything around them, but only stuck firmly to the two motionless human figures.
The chilblains and cracks on their skin were covered in scorch marks, and large, ugly burns spread quickly.
Yu Xing glanced at them one last time and turned to go to another room.
At this moment, two sighs suddenly came from behind him.
“It's all over.”
“I can finally die…”
He turned to Sun Yunyun's room, and the same match lit the girl's body.
"It's so warm." The girl sat quietly at the table, leaving Yu Xing with her back, "It's so warm."
The same thing happens in every room where there are residents.
The remaining person was stunned by their operation, and he did not dare to say anything questioning, because he also saw the effect of the fire after it burned down.
The blacksmith who left a shadow on Chen Run in the previous recurrence was ignited by Lan Wu.
The burly blacksmith even created a bigger fire ball than the others. His infected arm crackled in the flames and was soon charred black.
“I'm comfortable, and finally I'm no longer tortured…”
I don't know whether they were fast enough, or “it” didn't care about this little opportunism, until the residents were burned into a pile of ashes contrary to common sense and passed away in the wind, without any accidents happening.
At this time, it was exactly 1:59.
Chen Run's friend woke up from the shock and hurried to his room. Chen Run finally got the new key and ran non-stop.
Zhang Yu: "Do we still need to go back to the room..."
Hua Subai raised his face and felt it, then shook his head: "No, I can feel that 'it' has already left."
The rules here have disappeared.
