Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Ringo poked his head, staring blankly at the blocked path.

Wu Jian murmured, "It seems that the stairs are impassable in the first place... It's not right, it's relatively safe to go from the 36th floor to the 9th floor... But if the nightmare collapses later, the stairs say It's not safe either..."

For a while, he was somewhat tangled.

As a tasker who came down from a higher level, Wu Jian still has a little bit of sensitivity in this regard.

The cycle of nightmares will bring more information, but it will also expose the quester to unpredictable situations.It is an eternal problem for taskers to choose a quick solution or collect information first.

But Wu Jian soon stopped worrying about this matter. He looked at Lingo and decided to let Lingo make a decision: "Boss, do we have to go down? If we go down, I might not be able to get up... "

He knew some rumors about Ringo's IQ at the bottom of the narrow building, but he thought it was all nonsense.In such a short time walking the stairs with Ringo, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Ringo.

In the final analysis, those rumors are just random suspicions with malice and jealousy.

However, according to the rumors, the rumored strength of Ringo may be able to jump down the truncated stairs very easily.

As an oil bottle, Wu Jian wisely raised this issue.

Yes, what he said was that "I" might not be able to come up, but he had no doubt that Ringo would definitely be able to come up.

Lingo glanced at him, and said succinctly, "You wait here, I'll go down and have a look."

Then, he jumped down.Wu Jian didn't react at all, until he heard Ringo landed steadily, then opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, and hurried to the edge of the broken stairs, looking down.

It was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly.

Wu Jian began to worry, not only worried about Ringo, but also worried about himself.

Also witnessing this scene were the audience in the live broadcast room and Xu Beijin.

"!!! Little Apple is too fierce!!"

"In a flash, people are gone."

"Hey, there's nothing, that's called jumping off!"

"Although Little Apple jumped down, I think... the stairs are probably blocked..."

"What the reasoning boss said makes sense!"

Xu Beijin glanced at the barrage and said nothing.

The moment Ringo jumped down, he couldn't help frowning, but then he relaxed his brows slightly when he thought of Ringo's powerful body strength.

But he still thought that maybe he still had to ask Lingo to be careful.

Even if he really has such a strong force value, he can't do whatever he wants, right?What if the car overturns someday?

Xu Beijin was full of worries, but he couldn't help smiling wryly, thinking what the fuck he was doing.

Have you softened your heart again because of Lingo's caring behavior...

He sighed secretly.

It can be seen from the pictures in the live broadcast room that the broken stones and bricks have blocked a lot of space in the lower part of the stair break, and it is likely that the lower stair has also collapsed, blocking a lot of light and emergency passages The dark green light source.

Therefore, the picture at Lingo's place has turned to gray under night vision.

But even so, Xu Beijin could still see Lin Biao's vigorous and swift figure.He hardly stopped, and occasionally paused slightly, but he was just looking for the next place to stay.

The exquisite beauty of combining speed and strength, coupled with the sense of crisis of walking on the edge of danger for fear that his feet will slip in the next second, made Xu Bei hold his breath and focus on Lin Po's figure.

After a while, Ringo came to the end.

He stood on a half-broken step concrete block, frowning at the scene in front of him.

The rubble of the collapsed and broken stairs completely blocked the passage downstairs.And even if Ringo had the ability to move it away, he didn't know how long it would take.

He glanced at the floor sign hanging on the wall, and found that this was already the fifth floor.He jumped down the distance of four floors, but there was no way to go any further.

Ringo stood there, subtly silent for a few seconds.The screen of the live broadcast room under the night vision cannot show his expression particularly finely, but Xu Beijin can almost picture his distressed and unhappy look in his mind.

...Xu Beijin laughed abruptly. He sat back on the chair, still looking intently at Lin Po.

He thought, this little apple.

Lingo was indeed very distressed and upset. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves.

Sure enough, it is more convenient to find the owner of the nightmare and solve it.

He made his decision as if nothing had happened, and then quickly returned to the 9th floor.But even Ringo took some time when he returned.

The cement blocks that may slip at any time made his journey a little more difficult.

When he returned to the 9th floor stairwell, he looked at the white mud marks on his palm, recalled the effort he had just spent, and then estimated the possibility of other taskers going down.

...well, almost zero.

As Wu Jian said, they can go down, but once they go down, they can't get up.

Lingo told Wu Jian this conclusion and the scene he saw in the stairwell below.

Wu Jian's expression changed almost immediately.He asked quickly, "Where is the door in the stairwell?"

Ringo said: "It's all blocked." He said, "Moreover, the floor signs on several floors are blocked, and I can see that the one on the seventh floor is still there."

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Wu Jian's back immediately.

In the live broadcast room, the audience asked curiously: "What's going on? Why does this little brother have such a big reaction?"

Xu Beijin explained: "Lingo can come up from below, but other taskers can't. This means that if other taskers go down to check in the first round, the result is likely to be trapped there.

"Then ... when the three-hour time limit expires, the building collapses and they are buried in mud bricks until they die of suffocation or starvation, bringing about a restart of the nightmare."

"!!! The dog plan is uneasy and kind!"

"So Little Apple indirectly helped others avoid a trap!"

"It's hard to imagine how terrifying it would be to be trapped in the completely dark and lightless environment below..."

"Beibei is right. Another point is, if the stairwell below cannot be entered or exited, and according to what Little Apple said, if the floor signs are blocked, then if these taskers take the elevator to go to the 9th floor or below, There is no way to go to the stairwell to confirm the actual floor.

"In other words, since then, they have no way of knowing which floor they are on."

"Hey, isn't that just a complete loss?"

"If you can go directly down to the first floor from the ninth floor...Forget it, it seems a bit whimsical [bye]"

"I don't think the mastermind would be so kind (whispers)"

"I want to say... didn't you pay attention just now? Under the night vision screen, behind Little Apple, it seems... there is a leg..."

"!!!Ahhhhhhhhhhhh don't scare me!!!"

"People will die if they are scared!!!"

"I pretended I didn't see it, why did you say it?!! You are not human! [Blooded Knife]"

"Actually I ... see ... ah ah ah ah ah!"

"It's normal when you think about it. The elevators in this building are so strange that the wiring seems to be completely out of order. Under such circumstances, don't you think there will be a lot of people walking up the stairs?"

"Besides, Beibei said earlier that this building would collapse within three hours. If so...could the stairs on the nine floors not collapse at one time? Instead, they were divided several times..."

"Shut up. I don't want those rubble and cement blocks to be full of dead bodies."

"...You already said it!!!"

"Beibei is so handsome, I almost forgot, this is a horror game live [bye] [bye]"

The barrage quickly turned to face licking.

Only the reasoning boss still said worriedly: "However, I always feel that there is a trap... Beibei said that after three hours, this building will completely collapse.

"But look at the situation of this staircase... During these three hours, will there be a small-scale subsidence in this building?"

Xu Beijin opened his eyes slightly, then smiled without saying a word.

Reasoning boss: "..."

OK, that's how it should be, right?

The reasoning boss prayed for these poor taskers, and hoped that they would not be so miserable that they would be crushed to death by the collapsed ceiling.

At this moment, after completing the exploration of the stairs, Wu Jian and Ringo started to climb the stairs again, and they were going up.

After discovering that the exit of the stairs had been blocked, they did not intend to take the elevator, but continued to climb the stairs peacefully.They were completely ignorant of the situation in the elevator, so they dared not take any risks.

However, Wu Jian still put forward his own opinion: "Boss, since the nightmare has not restarted, it means that other people are still exploring normally. Why don't we go to the 16th floor to have a look? It's a good time to ask the residents of the narrow building if there is any what clues.

"By the way, you can still stay with your sweetheart."

Lingo nodded casually at first, but after Wu Jian finished speaking the last sentence, he couldn't help being dumbfounded, unexpectedly a little nervous for no reason.

He hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Do you think...he is my sweetheart?"

Wu Jian Shunzui sold many taskers on the ground floor of the narrow building: "Oh, boss, you are so obvious, everyone knows it."

Ringo's eyes widened: "Everyone knows?" He was a little surprised, and then asked another question, "Am I really that obvious? Do I like him?"

Wu Jian nodded: "Boss, I think you are just..." He pondered his tone, "I love him so much."

Ringo nodded thoughtfully.

Xu Beijin: "..."

Why did he connect the sound source of the live broadcast room to Ringo and Wujian?

why!

"Hahahaha, Little Apple loves Beibei so much, it's true! I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Mom doesn't agree with your marriage! Give me another three years of dating!"

"Hey, why did Beibei cut off the sound source! No, Beibei!"

"Beibei, you're getting angry from embarrassment."

Xu Beijin: "..."

Who is angry from embarrassment!

Xu Bei glared angrily at the group of viewers in the live broadcast room who were afraid of chaos, and finally, he gritted his teeth and looked at Wu Jian.

...Is this the guy who gave him the deadly backstab? ?

Xu Bei knew with all his heart that what Lin Po asked and what Wu Jian answered was exactly the same as talking to a duck and playing the piano to a cow.

Lin Po has no concept of love at all. To put it bluntly, he is not sure whether he likes Xu Beijin or not. One to one correspondence.

If they match, then he will say oh, it turns out that he really likes Xu Beijin.

If not right...

To be honest, the embarrassment is that he intentionally flattered Xu Beijin for the sake of the fight, deliberately understood his preferences, even from the moment he came to visit... this kind of misunderstanding has already occurred, and it will never end .

If Lingo had been a transparent and sophisticated person like Mu Jiashi, then he wouldn't have had so many entanglements.He will know that this is just normal human interaction.

But Ringo is not.His world is like a blank sheet of paper, clean but spotless.And some people didn't know whether it was based on a real misunderstanding or based on the standpoint of watching a good show, misleading him.

To be honest, Xu Bei was absolutely unwilling to let Lin Biao go astray like this.

If Ringo really likes him, or someone, it should be out of Ringo's own will. Why should he match the rules of the world one by one, if others say he likes him, he thinks he really likes it?

So Xu Beijin decided that Ringo was misled.This is a complete misunderstanding.

But it was as if the whole world was against Xu Beijin.

Ringo is also a stubborn person. He is in such a confused and uneasy situation, but someone tells him, "Yeah, you just act like you really like him, and everyone can see it."

So Lin Po suddenly realized that he really liked Xu Beijin.

Xu Beijin: "..."

You like a fart!

... No, he didn't mean that he was a fart.

He just wondered in confusion, how did Ringo survive in such a place as the Narrow Building and become the uncrowned king at the bottom of the Narrow Building with such a straightforward, frank, and somewhat silly character?

Is it really the law of the jungle, the winner is king?

Xu Beijin pinched the center of his brows in distress, then poured tons of cans of drinks into himself, trying to calm himself down.

Lingo and Wu Jian were slowly climbing from the 9th floor to the 16th floor. The stairs were much more tiring going up than going down. Even if Lingo didn't care, Wu Jian was too tired.Ringo could only slow down impatiently.

Xu Bei was out of sight and out of mind, and paid attention to the movements of other taskers.

The man in the suit, the boy, and the witch have already found the source of the strange crying on the 31st floor.

It was a little girl curled up under a desk somewhere.

She was wearing a small skirt, her face was dirty, and her body was shaking.There were some finished food packaging bags scattered around her.

It took the three adults a while to find the source of the sound from her weak cries, and thus find her.In the process, they had searched the entire floor and found no other clues.

Then they looked at each other.

"Why is there a little girl in the office building?" The man in the suit completely ignored the question of whether the little girl would hear their conversation, thinking without empathy, "Because...the parents brought her to the office before the great change happened. coming?"

The boy said, "And then you forgot her here?"

"maybe."

The man in the suit and the boy tried to communicate with the little girl, but the little girl shrank deeper under the desk instead.

Because the stranger appeared, she stopped crying, and even timidly showed half of her face, with a pair of clean and beautiful eyes, staring at the three people outside in fear.

In the end, it was the sorceress who went to communicate with the little girl, spent a little effort to appease her, and let her crawl out from under the desk.

They all heard the loud grunting of the little girl's stomach.

The little girl looked at her stomach, but she didn't dare to speak. She just opened her eyes wide and looked at the group of people who appeared suddenly.

This little girl was about seven or eight years old, and she stuttered when she spoke. It seemed that she was huddled there for a long time and was greatly frightened, so her expression was a little dazed, and her expressive ability was not very smooth.

The sorceress squatted down to communicate with her in a low voice, and the little girl's expression gradually changed from frightened to slightly restless and nervous, and blood appeared on her pale cheeks.

Finally, the witch asked, "Why are you here alone?"

The little girl blinked blankly: "...there was something... with a bang... Mom went outside with other uncles and aunts... Mom told me to hide here... It’s been a long time, Mom hasn’t come back for a long time... Hungry..."

She touched her belly.

The witch had nothing to eat, she looked at the man in the suit and the boy, a little hesitant.

But the point of the man in the suit and the boy is not here.

The man in the suit said: "It seems that I didn't forget it here, but something happened."

"Could it be because of the danger on a certain floor? Where are you trapped, or..." The boy narrowed his eyes slightly, "Elevator? Those people may have lost their direction and floors because of the elevator."

"If they can see the floor number, they shouldn't get lost..." The man in the suit hesitated for a moment, and then overturned his thoughts, "No, maybe the danger on that floor even prevents them from going to the stairwell."

At this time, they did not know that the stairwells below the 9th floor were inaccessible; therefore, they could not confirm which floors actually corresponded.Such a situation may lead to subsequent confusion in the records of the elevator buttons and actual floors.

The teenager concluded: "In any case, it seems that there may be a group of people alive in this building."

His conclusion is based on the fact that if the little girl is still alive, there must be other corresponding clues.Of course, it's possible to be dead, but a grown-up knows a lot more than a child.

The man in the suit nodded, and then said, "You can try to find it later."

However, just try.They have only explored part of this nightmare scenario now.And further down, there may be more difficulties waiting for them.

Then, they continued to ask the little girl what information she knew, but apart from the strange "boom" and her mother leaving with other colleagues, the little girl didn't know any more information.

So the man in the suit and the boy decided to leave here.

The sorceress naturally took the little girl's hand.

The man in the suit frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?"

The sorceress was startled, and then said with some astonishment: "Don't you take her...? The clue... This is, the clue." She said indiscriminately, "I feel it, this is the hope of breaking the situation!"

"Stop talking nonsense, witch. There's no need to fool us with your supernatural powers that didn't work at that time." The young man sneered, "What's the use of bringing this oil bottle? She doesn't know anything, Can you help us find the truth of this nightmare?"

The man in the suit added: "If we can meet her mother, maybe we can come back to find this little girl."

What else does the witch want to say.

The boy said impatiently: "Okay! If you want to be with this little girl, you can stay here..."

The man in the suit said: "No, we can't let the witch stay here. There are too many unknowns in this nightmare, we can't take such a big risk."

The boy pursed his lips, but still agreed.

The sorceress really wanted to be like Ringo and say forcefully, "You can't arrange my whereabouts", but she felt powerless.

She looked at the little girl, hesitated for a moment, took off a bunch of bracelets from her wrist, and handed them to her.

The sorceress said, "Hey, we'll come back to you later." She pointed to the desk where the little girl was hiding before, "If you're scared, just hide there, okay?"

She gave the little girl hope.

Afterwards, she followed the man in the suit and the boy out of this floor meekly and silently.The man in the suit pressed the button for the 29th floor in the No. [-] elevator.

And the little girl stood there, holding the bracelets, staring at them blankly, as if she hadn't reacted yet.

The audience in the live broadcast room were filled with righteous indignation: "Damn, it's too much!"

"This little girl is so cute and sweet, they are indifferent!"

"...Although, this is just a game, and the little girl is an NPC. You don't need to be so strong in empathy..."

"But it could also be a living person! It's a cosplayer!"

"Don't you feel that I don't feel any more... It's just a show..."

"Even if I'm an NPC, I can be soft-hearted!"

"...I really want to be sincere..."

Xu Bei looked at the barrage in the live broadcast room dumbfounded, and then looked at the little girl who was left in place with a somewhat bewildered expression.

Maybe the witch's feeling is right, this little girl is the hope of breaking the situation.

But... speaking of the little girl's mother...

He looked out and saw a woman among the group of performers gathered on the 16th floor.

She was wearing a well-fitting suit, but the fabric was wrinkled.Her expression was a little anxious, her hair was disheveled, and her delicate makeup had already been spent.She bit her fingers uneasily, listening to the others with a serious expression.

Although it should be just acting, but who knows if this group of cosplayers have joined the play?

Xu Beijin looked at her quietly for a moment, thinking, would the mission workers regard this woman as the little girl's mother?can you?After all, this woman appeared in such a prominent position, mixed with other survivors.

This may relate to the importance of the role of the little girl in this nightmare.If the little girl is really important, then her mother must also be an important role in the nightmare, and even... maybe the owner of the nightmare.

After all, the owner of the nightmare, the resident of the narrow building, is also a woman, isn't he?

Xu Bei inevitably squinted his eyes.

But at this moment, Lingo and Wu Jian came to the 16th floor.The anxious woman, as well as other residents of the narrow building, looked at them in unison.

This is the second time they have come here, so the group of narrow building residents also recognized them and moved away naturally.

But this time, Wu Jian and Lin Po are not looking for Xu Beijin, but looking for clues to this nightmare.

Xu Beijin also sat upright according to the mastermind's request, showing a concussion expression, so as not to deviate from the script.

Before that, he habitually glanced at the live broadcast room.

This time, he was looking at the situation of Jiang Shuangmei, Fei, and Shen Yunju.

They explored the empty, dimly lit floors, but found no clues.There are no elevators or freight elevators, no people and no danger, and the floor is 21.

This floor was eerily quiet, which made Jiang Shuangmei somewhat uncomfortable and hairy on her back.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.The ground under your feet always has a subtle thick, wet and sticky feeling when you step on it.

The dim light prevented her from noticing this.

Maybe there's some water on the floor...?The city outside was burning quietly, and the air inside was obviously colder, so this made the water vapor in the air condense on the floor of this building?

It also sounds a little fallacious.

Jiang Shuangmei thought so, then subconsciously lowered her head and raised her feet.

In the dim light, she saw that the ground was covered with dried, sticky blood.
