God forbids me to fall in love

Chapter 40 Devil Contract

Fast forward to Thursday.

Because Meng Weiyi mentioned that he could bring his roommate with him, Fang Yue invited a lot of people, but unfortunately everyone had their own private affairs and couldn't get away.

Huang Xiuqi agreed excitedly, but when he heard that there was Meng Weiyi in the team, he instantly fell into a strange silence.

"...I said, you won't really talk to him..."

With a troubled face, he stumbled and opened his mouth, unable to articulate a word clearly for half a minute.

But Fang Yue already understood what the other party wanted to say, he didn't know how to answer for a moment, he hesitated for a moment and then nodded shyly.

In fact, not to that point, but soon.

"Oh, I knew it." Huang Xiuqi shook his head pretending to be deep like an ancient master, "I guessed it when I saw you two hugging each other in the hospital that day."

Hug together?

When did he hug Meng Weiyi?

Obviously holding hands is the most intimate gesture they have ever done.

Fang Yue reacted for a while, guessing that the scene where the other party wiped him when hot water was poured on his chest looked like a hug from Huang Xiuqi's perspective.

"no……"

Huang Xiuqi made a squinting expression of "Don't quibble", then waved his hand suddenly after a few seconds, and muttered: "But it doesn't matter. Didn't I tell you before that he believed in evil religion? It was actually a misunderstanding, or It is better to speak clearly, and it will save you from prejudice against others."

Fang Yue kept silent. In fact, he already knew that the so-called "evil religion" was probably the No. 1 civilization myth, so he didn't really care about it. He wanted to find an opportunity to ask the other party, and now he listened to Huang Xiuqi's talk. The ins and outs are also good.

"They seem to have a bit of a personality in art. Meng Weiyi 'cut his wrist' in the dormitory before, and wrote all kinds of messy runes, which scared my elementary school brother. In fact, they are engaged in performance art. The wound is It was painted, they made it clear later, and the misunderstanding was cleared up. Now the young genius artist doesn’t live in the dormitory anymore, except for the weird and dark painting style, there is nothing wrong with it.”

Fang Yue was taken aback for a moment, remembering the quick glance at the library, he did see the bloodstains under Meng Weiyi's wristband.

This matter has always been a soft thorn in his heart.

It turned out that those scars were painted, and they were too realistic.

But why did Meng Weiyi draw traces of self-mutilation? Is he a non-mainstream?

Fang Yue fell into deep thought.

Huang Xiuqi groaned twice, and changed his tone: "But, I still don't want to go out with him. The experience of coming back from the hospital on the same road last time was really embarrassing to me. I didn't dare to speak, I almost suffocated."

"You guys came back together?" Fang Yue frowned, a little confused.

Since when did Huang Xiuqi get so familiar with Meng Weiyi? Why didn't he know about it?

"Look, let me just say it. That day my sense of existence was so weak that you ignored me... That's all, anyway, you can just go and play by yourself, eat and drink well."

Finally, Huang Xiuqi waved at him soullessly and pushed him out of the dormitory.

Fang Yue had no choice but to go to the appointment alone.

He couldn't call his teammates, and Meng Weiyi was "too handsome to have no friends". In the end, there were only the two of them in the team.

However, real CS needs more people to be fun, and two people are not enough to start a game alone.

So when the two of them met and went to the store for consultation, they were asked to wait for the [-]:[-] p.m. session to compete with another group of people who had booked in advance.

"Two handsome guys, there are too few of you, why don't you wait, there are already more than ten people in the three o'clock show, and then we will join together, and everyone will have a good time, and we will not be able to distinguish between our own and strangers."

The uncle in the store said leisurely while stroking his beard, "It's only two hours in between. If you are bored, you can also look at other items in our store. There are real CS outside, and we also have secret rooms indoors. Two-person theme, two hours is enough to play a round, do you want to try it?"

Fang Yue: "..."

I always feel sold.

He has never played Escape Room before, and I heard that it requires intelligence. If he does not perform well, will it destroy his image in Meng Weiyi's heart?

"Do you want to play?" Meng Weiyi turned his head and looked at him quietly.

He was wearing a black denim jacket today, showing a dashing handsomeness that was different from the gloom before.

Fang Yue loosened his tight shirt collar, coughed twice, and silently nodded.

The uncle paid attention to their conversation the whole time, and when he saw Fang Yue's movements, he cleverly took out a few posters from under the table, smiling all over his face: "Are you playing horror-themed or pure-puzzle-solving ones? There are many types in our store."

"Let's solve the riddle."

Fang Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he raised his eyes to ask Meng Weiyi's opinion before expressing his thoughts firmly.

He was afraid that the stamina of the horror theme would be too strong, and he would be so frightened that his legs would weaken in the process of real-life CS, and he would be unable to wipe out the enemy.

"Alright, let me introduce you!"

The uncle was very good at observing words and expressions, and found that Fang Yue was the one who made the main decision, so he only spoke to him the whole time: "Many of the games suitable for two people are couple themes, but it doesn't matter, friends can also play!"

He released a few dreamy posters, which painted very girly scenes such as pink rooms and bright starry sky. One can see that the ultimate theme of those secret rooms is love.

Seeing the hesitation on Fang Yue's face, the uncle pulled out another few posters without further ado.

Fang Yue took a closer look, one was prison-prison style, the iron bars of the cell and the back figure in a military coat were painted on the poster, and the other was western fantasy style, with many magic circles and runes.

He blinked, thinking that escaping from the prison didn't seem very good, so he chose the second theme, and the name of this secret room was "Devil's Contract".

"Well, what do you think?" He pointed to the cursive words on the poster, and turned to look at Meng Weiyi.

"Okay." Meng Weiyi suddenly raised his hand to pluck the fluff that fell from Fang Yue's head at some point, looked intently into his eyes, and said slowly, "I'm looking forward to it."

Before Fang Yue could answer, the uncle had already smiled heartily: "Just look forward to it! Then I will open the door for you now, usually for seven to 10 minutes, and I will give you a small gift if you come out within the specified time! There are still three chances to ask for help , if you have any questions, you can turn on the walkie-talkie and communicate with me in time. Just put your mobile phones and schoolbags in the locker now."

After speaking, he stuffed the walkie-talkie into Fang Yue's pocket, and was about to leave the front desk, when he suddenly patted his forehead and added: "I almost forgot, this theme divides people into two groups at the beginning, so I'll give it to you again." A walkie-talkie, but you can't communicate with each other, you can only communicate with me."

Fang Yue's heart suddenly rose. Does this mean that he has to separate from Meng Wei as soon as he enters the secret room?

He quickly looked at the other party, but Meng Weiyi didn't seem to have any objections, and even touched Fang Yue's head to comfort him after noticing Fang Yue's gaze.

The owner strode them through winding corridors, hearing the screams of guests in other themed rooms, before they stopped in front of one.

With a "click", the door of the secret room was pushed open, and the dark room was revealed in the eyes of the two.

Fang Yue stood by the door without moving, and asked Meng Wei in a low voice, "Have you ever played escape rooms before? I don't have much experience."

"This one doesn't require experience, little brother. Once you're born and you're familiar with it, there must be a main story behind each secret room. You follow the clues, starting from the door lock and going deep one by one. This room is also based on plot and puzzles. It won't be too difficult!"

The uncle is really a person who likes to answer questions. Hearing the sound, he enthusiastically answered Fang Yue's questions again, even if the question was not aimed at him.

"Okay, thank you." Fang Yue thanked him slightly dumbfounded, watching Meng Weiyi being led by the shopkeeper to another entrance in the distance, until their backs disappeared, and then cautiously walked into the room in front of him.

As soon as he stepped in, the door behind him was closed by the mechanism, and at the same time, the lights in the room were turned on.

He didn't expect that he, a novice player, would have to fight alone for the first time. Even though he clearly knew that the secret room should not contain horror elements, he was still a little nervous.

It appears to be a bedroom.

On the left side of the entrance is a wooden wardrobe, and on the right side is a somewhat worn-out desk, on which are some notebooks and papers that are clues.

On the wall above the desk are portraits of medieval nobles.

A bed is placed in the middle of the south side of the room, and there is a round velvet carpet in the shape of a magic circle in the open space in the middle.

Another door was opened in the northernmost corner of the room. Fang Yue approached and found that there was a four-digit letter combination lock hanging on it.

It seems that he needs to unlock the four letters to get out of here.

Fang Yue calmed down, and gradually began to enjoy the excitement of this decryption.

He naturally walked to the table, ready to look through the notes.

But the handwriting written in a red pen on the desktop attracted his attention more than the notebook.

"I always feel that there is a pair of eyes watching me."

Obviously, this cannot be just a decoration.

The meaning of this sentence is also a bit creepy.

Fang Yue thought about it for a few seconds, then pulled out the chair and sat down. He frowned and looked at the characters, imitating the posture of the person who might have written this sentence.

When he picked up the pen and leaned down to write, he actually felt a feeling of being stared at.

Fang Yue paused, looked up following the source of the feeling, and met the eyes of the person in the portrait hanging on the wall above the table.

……No wonder.

From the moment Fang Yue came in, he felt that the painting was a bit uncomfortable. It turned out that the pupils of the characters were deliberately drawn to look down.

The "eye" is found, so how to solve this sentence?

Although he has never played the escape room, he is also an out-and-out reasoning enthusiast. He has participated in the school's reasoning club for the past two years, and he still has some ideas in his head.

With an idea, he stood up and covered the portrait's eyes.

Then there was a click, and the door of the closet behind him suddenly opened.

Fang Yue was startled by the sound, and turned his head to look at the slightly opened cabinet door. After being frightened, joy welled up in his head—it seemed that his approach was right.

At the beginning, there was no carpet search of the whole room. Presumably the door of the closet was closed tightly, and the mechanism released the clues in this step.

Fang Yue didn't rush over to read it, but calmed down his thoughts silently, and continued to flip through the paper on the table.

On the scattered white paper are some messy charcoal drawings, without any specific content, more like the lines drawn by people to vent their anger when they are crazy.

It can be seen that the writer used great strength, and many places were scratched, which further confirmed his guess.

What does this mean?

While thinking, Fang Yue lowered his eyes and flipped through the notebook. It seemed to be the diary of the owner of the room.

The necessary props in the puzzle game appeared.

"May 5th, Yin. He said that I have pawned my soul."

Fang Yue didn't know why, frowning and quickly turned the page backwards, but the place where the text was written in the book was full of such a repeated sentence, and everything else was blank.

Aside from the date and weather, the only difference is a change in punctuation—the sentence in later pages becomes "He says I've pawned my soul!"

At the end, a row of exclamation marks have been added at the end of the sentence, so that anyone who reads it seems to be able to hear the emotional cry behind the sentence.

It seems to record the whole process of a person from calm to crazy.

Fang Yue can almost draw a firm conclusion: the owner of the room is crazy.

Having no other thoughts for the time being, he stood up and searched other places in the room.

I checked the top and bottom of the desk, only to find four magnets in the drawer.

Fang Yue went to the bed and touched the seam of the bed, and knelt down to inspect the bottom of the bed, but found nothing.

But when he lifted the mattress, he saw three numbers drawn with black paint on the bed board - "666"

Fang Yue took a look, and calmly restored the bed.

He already knew this information. Before entering the secret room, he saw that the name of this theme is "Devil's Contract". In the west, 666 means the devil and Satan.

This indicates that the background of the story line must be related to demonology.

At this time, Fang Yue recalled the unusual sentence in the diary, and he could think of it. Could it be that the way to sign a contract with the devil is to pawn the soul?

But that didn't seem to help him escape from the Chamber of Secrets.

Fang Yue got up and walked towards the carpet, but in the process, he didn't know that he touched there, and a plastic rose suddenly fell from the chandelier on the ceiling.

The flowers fell at his feet. He hesitated for a moment, held the flowers in his hands and looked at them for a while, but found nothing.

But thinking that every item would not appear out of thin air, maybe it would be useful in the future, so he put it in his pocket.

Then Fang Yue lifted the carpet and saw a more terrifying scene.

The pattern on the floor was the same as the six-pointed star array on the carpet, but the color was dark red like that of dried blood, and there were some burnt black and some solid gray around it.

This picture will make people have some bad imagination.

Fang Yue exhaled, squatted down, and found four hidden buttons in the middle of the magic circle, his thoughts were connected at once, and he quickly stood up and took out the magnet from the drawer.

As soon as it was placed on it, a wooden board in the center of the magic circle tilted up.

Pulling it apart, there was a torn diary and half a photo underneath.

"December 12, Qing. He said that I have pawned my soul, I belong to him, and only belong to him forever, forever."

Fang Yue: "...!"

There was an extra sentence.

Does the "he" here refer to the devil?

The owner of the room signed a contract with the devil and pawned his soul, so he only belongs to the devil from then on?

Thoughts were still a little confused, Fang Yue took a look at the half-torn photo again, and almost suspected that the shopkeeper had misheard his request and arranged a horror-themed secret room for them.

Because the people in the photo are really weird.

The man was sitting on the sofa, with his hands flat on his knees, wearing a bright and dazzling clothes, much like the uniform of a magician in a circus.

There was a big smile on his face, but tears were streaming from his eyes.He had a hand on his shoulder that belonged to another person who had been torn off beside him.

The wall behind him was filled with all kinds of strange words.

Fang Yue shuddered, thinking that the price of this secret room is really expensive, because the props are really exquisite.

He put all his things on him, and walked to the last unexplored place in the room - the closet.

Thanks to the mechanism he untied at the beginning, the door was already loose, Fang Yue gently pulled it open, and there were several sets of overly gorgeous clothes hidden in it as in the photo, but this is not the point, the point is at the bottom of the closet There is a thick book.

Fang Yue quickly took it out, and saw the words "Introduction to Demonology" written on the cover, and another line of small characters on the bottom of the cover: "Shout out the name of the devil".

He nodded knowingly, realizing that the devil's name might be the password for the room.

Just as I was about to see if there was any name mentioned in the content, I felt that the book was bulging in my hand. It turned out that there were many footers folded inside.

Fang Yue used his toes to figure out that these marked pages must be clues.

He opened them one by one, and found that there were seven folded pages in total.

Not sure if it was related to the page number, he sat back at the desk with the book in his hand, and marked the page number on the white paper.

But he has found all the other clues in this room. The corresponding puzzle behind this book should be related to the door lock. However, the numbers given here are the letters required for the password.

As soon as Fang Yue thought of this, he immediately understood.

It is 26 English letters.

However, he looked at the numbers marked by him on the paper, and the largest was three hundred. How could they correspond to the English letters?

... I don't know how long time has passed now, and where Meng Weiyi has progressed. I am still trapped in the first room, so I won't let him wait long, right?

Fang Yue walked away for a while, sighed and forced himself to brush away these messy thoughts, and buried his head in the book again.

If the page number is not a reminder, what is the content inside?

He glanced roughly at the contents of each page, and was surprised to find that there were numbers at the beginning of each page.

They are 2, 3, 5, 1, 4, 1, 9 respectively.

If it corresponds to a letter, it should be bceadai.

Seven letters cannot be shortened into four digits, but seven digits can be shortened into four groups.

Fang Yue picked up the pen for a moment, and in the next second he wrote down the numbers 23, 5, 14, and 19 smoothly.

According to the principle that the number cannot exceed 26, only this kind of result can be separated.

So the corresponding letter is wens.

Fang Yue's heart was surging all of a sudden, he stood up "scratchedly", hurried to the second door, and flicked the combination lock without stopping.

"Click" the door lock popped open - the answer is right!

Overjoyed, Fang Yue hurriedly opened the door, thinking that he would see Meng Weiyi, but what he saw was a small bathroom, and he was also alone.

As if cold water had been poured over his head, his shortness of breath immediately stabilized.

He paused at the door for two seconds, then went into the bathroom silently, trying to find the exit.

The bathroom only has a sink with a mirror and a bathtub that takes up two-thirds of the room. There is a three-layer plastic shelf next to the bathtub, on which there are some toiletries and a small wooden box with a mechanism. There is no toilet.

When he walked to the sink, Fang Yue didn't feel very good, because the mirror reminded him of some horror movie plots.

He lowered his head and tried to turn on the faucet, but no water came down.

So he followed his instinct and bent over in a silly posture to look back, but happened to see a line of small characters engraved under the faucet: Your shadow is reflected in the water.

Standing up calmly, Fang Yue took a step back and turned on the bathtub nozzle without thinking, and the water gushed forth, covering the bottom of the bathtub in a short while.

With the water covering, four lavender numbers gradually appeared on the white bottom of the tank: 0606

Fang Yue raised his eyebrows lightly. Coincidentally, the password this time was still his birthday.

However, there is no lock in this room that requires a digital code. It seems that there is a problem with the order of solving the puzzles.

Of course, there are still gains overall, because the water flow broke through the curtain where the end of the bathtub is connected to the wall, revealing a hidden metal cabinet behind it, which requires a physical key to unlock.

Fang Yue immediately walked to the plastic shelf and picked up the wooden mechanism magic box.

He is very familiar with this kind of thing. When he was in the reasoning club, in addition to beating werewolves, they often held activities and training for disarming institutions.

He is no stranger to Jiulianhuan, Zhugesuo, and Lubanqiu.

At this moment, he also opened the mechanism magic box with three strokes, five and two, and there was a key hidden inside.

He picked up the key and opened the door of the metal cabinet. Inside was another photo with the left half torn open, a small password notebook, only half the size of a palm, and an old Nokia mobile phone .

This photo is still the same person, but he is dressed more everyday, and the background is outdoors, with a few bare trees behind him.

This man had another man's hand hanging on his arm, as if the other's presence was not allowed.

What didn't change was the expression on the person's face, which was still crying and laughing, which made Fang Yue's heart shudder.

He put the photo at the bottom and picked up the code book. When he saw the four-digit number wheel, he moved to 0606 without hesitation. As the shopkeeper said, the puzzles in the secret room are very simple, and the book was opened immediately. up.

What appeared on the page was new content, which belonged to another person's handwriting, which was more scribbled and wild, so it could be seen that it was not written by the crazy owner in the bedroom

"You once belonged to me, and you will always belong to me. Dedicate the rest of your life, and your reincarnation. This is our contract."

Fang Yue stared intently for two seconds, guessing that it should be the handwriting of "the devil". The devil has a paranoid possessive desire for the owner of the diary, so both of them mentioned the words "belong forever".

Fang Yue took out the diary he brought from the previous room, and compared it to do reading comprehension.

According to the diary of the owner of the room, he did not know that he had pawned his soul to the devil, because "he said" was used in the opening sentence, indicating that this was what the devil told him.

Combined with the words of the devil, it seems that the homeowner signed a contract with the devil in his previous life, so he is also entangled by the devil in this life.

This turned out to be a fantasy story with past and present factors.

So, is the devil on the other side of the torn photo?Because of the control and possession of the demon, why is the owner of the room crying and laughing?

Just as he was guessing, the mobile phone he had been holding in his hand suddenly vibrated violently.

Fang Yue was taken aback, and almost dropped it into the bathtub water.

He looked in shock at the incoming call record displayed on the small lit four-square screen, it turned out to be...

lover? !

Isn't this really a horror theme?

Why is there such a sense of déjà vu of a horror movie.

Fang Yue swallowed, gritted his teeth and pressed the switch, held the phone to his ear, and said in a hoarse voice, "...Hello?"

The author has something to say: there is another chapter at night (about ten o'clock)!
