System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Lu Nanyin used scissors to cut the rope on her left hand, then quickly cut the rope on her other hand, and then her feet.

Lu Nanyin groped in the dark and found Zhu An next to her, then cut the ropes on her hands and feet.

I pushed her, but Zhu An didn't respond at all.

Lu Nanyin had no choice but to continue groping forward. After walking for a while, she touched the wall, and then Lu Nanyin walked forward along the wall.

My finger touched a raised square-shaped object, and when I pressed it, the whole room lit up.

Lu Nanyin adjusted to the light and cut the ropes of the other two people, but they did not wake up. Lu Nanyin had to collect the papers beside them to see if there were any clues.

Lay all the papers together and look at them one by one.

Each piece of paper contained a short story. After reading them carefully, she could roughly guess who the protagonists of these stories were.

The story on her paper was about Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai was born in a family that favors boys over girls. She had two older sisters. The first one was sent away before she was born, so she has no memory of the existence of an older sister, and her family members do not allow anyone to talk about these things.

After Xiao Ai was born, her second sister had been taking care of her and raising her until she was four years old. Xiao Ai rarely saw her mother. Every time she saw her mother, she looked haggard and kept muttering, "I don't want to have another child. I really can't have another child. Please, let me go!"

Xiao Ai didn't understand. Her mother seemed to be pregnant all the time. Every time she asked her father about it, he looked impatient. When things got serious, he would even beat her. Later, she stopped asking.

When Xiao Ai was six years old, her elder sister was taken away by her father, wearing a white dress. She didn’t know where her elder sister was being taken. She only knew that she might never see her elder sister again. She cried very sadly. Her mother supported her waist, touched her head with her six-month-old belly, smiled lightly, and told her beautiful fairy tales softly. She gradually felt a little sleepy.

Lying on a bed made of cardboard, she weaved a happy ending for her sister in her dream. Her sister was taken away by a kind-hearted family and lived a rich and happy life. She didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and she could go to school. When she grew up, she would travel to various places happily.

But dreams are just dreams after all. More than three months later, her mother gave birth to a little brother. Her father was very happy and pointed at her nose and told her to protect her brother.

She turned her head blankly and looked at her mother lying on the bed. Her mother was also looking at her with dull eyes. It took her a long time to force a smile. After her father left the room, she held Xiao Ai's hand and told her: "Xiao Ai, go quickly. It doesn't matter where you go, as long as you don't stay here. Otherwise, otherwise..."

Before she could finish her words, her father rushed over and slapped her in the face. One side of her face quickly swelled up and she stopped talking.

After that day, Xiao Ai started to become busy. She had to do so many things and could only sleep for a few hours every day. She never saw her mother again.

Dad said that mom didn't want her anymore, so she ran away and took her younger brother with her.

Xiao Ai didn't believe it and cried and made a fuss about looking for her mother. Her father put a white dress on her and took her out, saying that he was taking her to find her mother.

Xiao Ai grabbed the corner of her skirt all the way. She remembered that her sister also left in a white dress and never came back. She was scared, afraid that she could no longer hide or escape.

Dad took her into a dim room. She fearfully grabbed his fingers, but he ruthlessly pushed them away. Xiao Ai was pushed into the room, and the door slowly closed, depriving her of her only remaining light, just as the hope in her heart was replaced by despair. There was only endless darkness before her eyes, and endless despair in her heart.

Because Xiao Ai's vision was deprived, her other senses were infinitely magnified. There was an indescribable smell in the room, a mixture of sweat and mold, which made people feel sick. There was also a smell of rust that made people want to escape. Xiao Ai groped to the wall, squatted in the corner, and kept shaking.

She could vaguely hear someone talking, something about 50,000 yuan, something about buying something, something about leaving. She couldn't hear clearly, but one of the people's voices sounded like her father's, so...did her father sell her? What about her sister? Did her sister also come here?

Xiao Ai's thoughts were interrupted by the light from the open door. A man walked in against the light, saw her squatting in the corner, and walked towards her with a smile. Looking at the door that was about to close, Xiao Ai didn't know where she got the courage from, she rushed over, opened the door as wide as possible, and wanted to run out.

But she was still too weak, and the man grabbed her arm. Looking at the light in front of her, Xiao Ai struggled desperately, but it attracted more people. The door was completely closed, and Xiao Ai's heart died.

In the days that followed, she hid in a dark little room, watching one person after another come in and then walk out with a look of satisfaction on their faces.

Xiao Ai's wounds increased day by day. In the end, the light when the door opened scared her. She was afraid that more people would come and her pain would become more serious. She would always hum a discordant tune when no one was around, giving herself the only comfort.

One day, she felt no more pain in her body, and her body felt light. A light appeared above her head, enveloping her. She felt so warm and sleepy, and wanted to just sleep like that and never wake up again.

Lu Nanyin felt her face a little itchy. When she touched it, she found that she was already in tears. She sniffed, wiped away her tears, and sorted out her mood.

The other three people woke up from their coma and looked around in confusion at the unfamiliar scene in front of them.

The three of them noticed Lu Nanyin sitting on the bed in a daze. Fang Huizhi walked over to her and patted her shoulder gently.

"Lu Ying, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Nanyin came back to her senses and shared it with them, "Take a look at this first."

Fang Huizhi gave the three pieces of paper to the other two people. They looked at the short stories on them. At first, they seemed fine, but in the end, all three of them fell silent.

"Are these stories about things that happened to the children in the orphanage?" Zhu An looked at them and asked.

Lu Nanyin nodded, "That should be the case. Xiao Ai told me some things about herself before, and it matches this story."

“Whose story is this then?”

Fang Huizhi briefly told the story and waited for their response.

Lu Nanyin looked at the beads in her hand and said, "It should be Xiao Fu."

Fang Huizi thought about it and realized that yes, the protagonist of the story did have a string of beads that could bring good luck, and that was Xiao Fu.

Zheng Jie and Zhu An also told the short stories they received and matched these stories with the children.
