Be the king in the infinite escape game

Gu Runan's mind froze.

From [-]:[-] noon to [-]:[-] pm, twelve o'clock in the morning, why does it feel so familiar?

Early morning and late afternoon...is it high tide time?

Gu Runan felt a burst of excitement in his heart, yes, it must be like this!

He had learned in his geography class that under the gravitational pull of the moon, seawater would have regular ebb and flow.

When the sea tide is high tide, it can roll up the creatures on the seabed (such as conch, octopus, starfish, etc.). Let's talk about the sea.

This is in line with the law that pollutants can float from the next layer of space.

"It" can take advantage of this natural phenomenon to realize free movement.

When the tide is low, "it" is trapped in the bottom world, but when the tide is high, "it" can come out to play.

Gu Runan guessed that if the concept of high tide was really followed, this conch would definitely disappear when the sky brightened tomorrow morning.

He was suddenly alert—does that mean that people who walk in the corridor at night and in the afternoon will unconsciously walk through the pollution, just like the whole person is soaked in seawater, the body is from the inside to the outside? The outside world will be infected by the fishy smell of sea water, and the mind will also be thoroughly washed by sea water.

He had an ominous premonition—it was a long afternoon, and it wasn't ruled out that some night owls liked to visit the house at night. Could it be that an anchor had already been recruited?

That would be even more terrifying than Jin Ze's situation.The polluted organs can be eaten and purified by parrots, but if every pore of the whole body has passed through the floating bottom world from the inside to the outside, then the whole person cannot be saved at all.

Hu Dobe panicked suddenly: "What should I do? The conch came out! Is that thing coming soon? We won't be caught in the urn, right?" Why did he lock himself in a closed space that was inconvenient to escape? Woolen cloth?

Gu Runan shook his head and comforted: "The conch can only serve as a warning. There is a parrot here. It is very afraid of the parrot and will not come in. We just need to lock the door and wait for dawn."

"Well..." Hu Duobei ran back and checked the door lock again, and he was relieved to confirm that the lock was tight.Raising his eyes inadvertently, his heart, which he had just let go, hung up as if being dragged by someone, and it was difficult to breathe.

Because outside the transparent door and window of the multi-function hall, there is a person standing impressively!

That person was very close, his eyes were protruding, bloodshot eyes were spreading, and he was staring straight at the multi-function hall!Hu Dobe's legs immediately went limp in fright, and he backed away desperately.

"Oh my god! What the hell is this?! Why did you suddenly come to kill me face-to-face!"

Meng Liushen supported him, stabilized his body, and looked at Gu Runan questioningly, as if they were in a fortress surrounded by zombies.

People outside have been thoroughly soaked in the swollen bottom world, and they are definitely heavily polluted. If they are not rescued, I don't know what will happen to them.But if this person is allowed to come in, he will definitely not be as easy to dismiss as Jin Ze. I don't know if he has the ability to contagious.

Gu Runan was also struggling, and before he had time to make a decision, the man outside suddenly let out a heart-piercing howl!

Gu Runan ran over and lay down on the transparent window to watch, the anchor was lying on the ground like an octopus, in the corridor full of sewage, flailing his limbs, twisting his neck wildly, showing a swimming posture!

Still swimming backwards!It was as if someone was pulling his leg and pulling it back!

The anchor's panicked expression gradually became serene, and he really regarded himself as some kind of marine creature, letting the tide sweep and swallow him, and gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Gu Runan and Meng Liushen looked terrified, and they didn't relax for a long time.

"I always feel like I've seen that person somewhere." Gu Runan's prosopagnosia occurred again.

Meng Liushen reminded: "It's the anchor who exchanged Thousand Eyes Bodhi with you."

Only then did Gu Runan recall.

Did that person just want to come to the multi-purpose hall to ask for help?He saw a light in the hall and found someone inside.

He must have been targeted by "it".

Meng Liushen blamed himself a little. He thought he could be saved but couldn't. Hu Duobei didn't know how to comfort him. The three of them spent a frightening night in the multi-function hall.

As Gu Runan expected, at 6 o'clock in the morning, when Meng Liushen's wake-up alarm sounded "Didi", the conch gradually became transparent in the bright morning light until it disappeared.

Gu Runan's conjecture was completely confirmed.

Only then did he figure it out. The reason why the multi-functional hall did not remind the audience not to leave the venue from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am, as in the notice posted that they are not allowed to leave the room for six hours in the afternoon, is because the multi-functional hall was originally It's just closing.

The original intention of the original design here was not to provide people with overnight stay services, so there is no need to write notes at night.

This may be the suspense and blankness deliberately left by the game designers, and they want players to explore this rule by themselves.It's so cloudy, Gu Runan frowned.

They each went back to their guest rooms and managed to catch up on two or three hours of sleep. The three of them were woken up by the system in a daze. The system told them to go to the casino area of ​​the cruise ship to carry out the third round of identity snatching of the "true young master".

When we arrived at the casino, there were fewer people left, which was shocking.

Counting the three of them, plus the Bai Jin siblings, there are less than 10 people left.

Gu Runan's worry became a reality - after the wave yesterday afternoon and last night, some people were dragged into the underworld.

Gu Runan was about to tell Bai Jin the results of their discovery yesterday, when Emily came over and said that the activity was about to start.

Gu Runan had no choice but to keep her mouth shut, comforting herself in her heart: Bai Jin even figured out how to use the admission ticket by herself, maybe she already knew these rules clearly.He is a senior, so don't worry too much.So she put the matter on hold.

Their occasion this time was not in a spacious public space like last time, but in a closed lounge.

A mahogany table with an area of ​​nearly [-] square meters is placed in a magnificent room, and a large crystal chandelier with more than a dozen lamps hangs in the center of the ceiling.

Ten mahogany chairs were placed beside the mahogany table, and a stack of colored chips was placed in front of each seat.

Is it to play bridge?

Gu Runan was a little embarrassed - he doesn't know how to play bridge, what should we do?

He is very good at poker. Once in class, he secretly played with his classmates, and when he got a hand, he played all the cards in his hand in a row.Before the other players played a single card, they were hitchhiked.Seeing the shocked expressions of his classmates, he couldn't say how happy he was, and he can still clearly recall that feeling of pride now.

His family style is strict. When his grandfather was alive, he warned the juniors not to gamble. First, it is easy to go bankrupt and the family is ruined;

So Gu Runan didn't have any knowledge in chess and cards, and he was not good at chess and card games, so he would play games with simple rules, such as Doudizhu.

He doesn't even know flower cards or mahjong, let alone complex games like bridge.

After sitting down in fear, the system pops up a prompt:

[Today's session: Project investment.Mr. Qi's companies have nearly [-] billion assets in the world.The company's business covers a very wide range, covering almost every industry and every field.

As his future good wife, the selected object must have advanced investment vision, a keen sense of business opportunities, and a sensitive intuition for risk estimation.

In order to select the "true young master" who has the most investment ability, the cruise line will hold a bidding event.

The projects in this event are all based on real investment projects that Mr. Qi has done in the past.

After winning the bid, the investment result (profit or loss) will be announced by secretary Emily on the spot.

The anchors need to exchange points for chips, and participate in the project bidding meeting, and use chips to bid for the right to handle the project.

This investment link is divided into three rounds, and no less than three investment spots will be opened.

After the completion of the three stages, the anchor with the most total profit of the project will be awarded the status of "True Young Master". (Note: Profit refers to the final income of the project minus the initial investment cost, excluding labor costs, etc., that is, gross profit.)

The bidding will start soon, please be prepared. 】

It turned out that they were not playing bridge. The chips in front of them were used as currency, and different colors represented different denominations.The cruise line (system) will register the initial points of each anchor, record the maximum amount he can consume, and give him the corresponding amount of chips.

But Gu Runan didn't let go of the tension in his heart because of this. He is a poor and white high school student, how can he have any experience in project investment?

Gu Lan does, but he is the organizer now, so he is just standing there to supervise, can you give him a hint?Cheating system will not allow.

He turned his head and asked Hu Duobei and Meng Liushen: "Are you familiar with investing?"

Hu Duobei sighed: "Does buying lottery tickets count? I have bought lottery tickets issued by Tiandi Bank for more than ten years. I go to buy them every morning, and I have never won."

"Forget it, you non-chief, I shouldn't ask you."

Hu Dobe:? ?Gu Runan, look at me, are you happy to hurt me!

Meng Liushen was even more ashamed: "I have no idea about points. My brother tried not to keep too many points in my hands, and saved them all at home."

Well, this is also a young master who knows nothing about the world, asking in vain.Gu Runan didn't count on them anymore, she still had to rely on herself.

Emily is wearing a lavender work suit today, elegant and charming. She holds the remote control to turn on the LED LCD screen on the wall, and signals the staff next to her to open the PPT with her eyes.

"Let me introduce some projects that Qi's Capital is interested in. Due to the large number of projects, we will divide them into three rounds for bidding."

"The first round, a private school and remedial class for young nobles. At present, the project has the world's top teachers. The development zone is located in the business district in the center of the city, with convenient transportation and beautiful scenery. It has cooperation with major schools and bookstores. The prospect is bright. The starting price: 1 points."

"If everyone decides to bid, push the chips in front of you to the designated area, and the person with the largest total chips wins the bid." Emily said loudly.

"5000, so much?" Gu Runan started searching again.

Can you not bid?He is very short of points now, if the meat buns beat the dog and never returns, and the 5000 points are wasted, will his trip to the dungeon be in vain?

He held all his chips in the palm of his hand, saying that he did not want to participate.

"Hey, this is good, this is good! Educating children is a great cause of the nation, young people are the flowers of the motherland, strong young people make the country strong, and the progress of the next generation is promising for the future. I am optimistic about this project and must vote!" said an anchor who came from the real world, Immediately take out 5000 points of chips and shoot them at the position delineated by the white line on the table.

Hu Duobei was the most vulnerable person. Hearing other people's analysis, he felt that he was really right. He immediately followed suit and put [-] points on the table.

"This is really going to make a lot of money! What do you think?" Hu Dobe said, "You vote too!"

Gu Runan was not persuaded, and Meng Liu smiled deeply: "Emily didn't say that there are multiple investment spots for this project, and only one person can win the bid. If you want it, I won't compete with you."

"Woooooh, Liushen, you're so kind." Hu Duobei didn't even think about this level, he only wanted to make money together, Meng Liushen was so moved for him that he was so moved that he was about to cry. He rubbed his head against Meng Liushen so hard that Meng Liushen felt embarrassed.

For the first project, everyone’s enthusiasm was very high. If you lift it up, I lift it up, and this project will be added to 9000 points.

Emily finished the calculation, took away the winning bidder's chips, counted them on the spot, and announced the result immediately.

"Due to the sharp drop in the number of newborns in this city, the prevalence of DINK views among couples, and the recent implementation of the burden reduction policy in this city, the education industry has been hit hard. You can't recruit many students, and the established student activity areas are luxurious and high-end. The investment was huge, but the inside was empty, and few students came. The parents who came felt that their children had no friends to hang out with at school, and they might as well go to a busy public school, so they asked for money back and transferred to another school.”

"The investment in this project has failed, and you lost all your money." Emily said gracefully, her eyes indifferent.

The anchor who won the bid immediately beat his chest and feet, crying for his father and mother, but he still yelled: "There must be one of the three projects that can make money! I want to vote again!"

The other anchors around him should also overthrow the stack of chips: "Yes! Fuck him! There are more points!" It seemed that he was already in a state of red eyes, and only Bai Jin remained sober.

Gu Runan felt a little scary: within a few minutes, 9000 points were spent in a rush, and these people didn't even blink.

In other dungeons, they were born and died, and they only earned a few points. Why do people here seem to have no sense of spending points?

Gu Lan is really a fox, and she knows people's hearts.

Luxurious environment, impetuous casino, once a person goes to such an occasion and is coaxed by the people around him, he will lose his sanity.

For the sake of face, for sunk costs, and for luck, all I know is to bet, bet, and keep betting.

"Have a good rest, let's proceed to the next round of bidding." Emily smiled decently, urging without a trace.

The author says:

Gu Lan: I earn money from whoever wins the vote, and save the gift money for my wife!
