After the retired judge enters the escape game

After Qi Wuguo finished speaking, Duan Li was silent for a moment, he just felt that the other party's speculation sounded a little unbelievable, but unexpectedly reasonable.

The truth of the matter may be as simple as that, the cat died in the crack because of curiosity.

Duan Li said: "I can try to get rid of the resentment, but judging from Zhu Ran's performance, the consciousness of the cat spirit is still dominant, and the key to pass the level should still be the obsession of the cat."

Qi Wuguo stroked his chin, feeling that what Duan Li said made sense.

"If you think about it carefully, the spirit body of an animal is not the same as a grieving ghost after a violent death."

Huang Meiling asked: "What's different, aren't they all... turned into ghosts?"

Qi Wuguo smiled and said: "Animals can only be called spirits after they die, and only humans can become ghosts after they die."

He didn't explain too much, this field should be taboo for ordinary people like Huang Meiling.People in the mortal world should not understand the world after death too much, unless they are celestial masters like Duan Li who walk between yin and yang.

When a person dies for the first time, he cannot be called a ghost, but only a soul.

The soul is irrational, acting only on instinct in chaos.

Most of these souls will go to the underworld under the guidance of ghost messengers, but some people have obsession or resentment when they die, and stay in the world because of their obsession and resentment, avoiding ghosts and ghosts.

After a long time, if the obsession still cannot be dispelled, hostility will arise, and it will become a ghost.Although ghosts are controlled by obsessions, they can remember part of their past life and possess part of their sanity.

After the death of an animal, although the spirit body may wander the world for various reasons, it will not have part of its sanity due to the passage of time.Their actions are always driven by instinct.

At the beginning, Zhu Ran still had some rationality, but later on his behavior became more and more like that of a cat.That was proof of the dominance of the cat spirit.

Qi Wuguo said: "Go to the herbarium to see, I always feel that it is not accidental that Zhu Ran was assigned there."

The ins and outs of the research institute are completely clear, and the next step is to figure out the reason why the cat spirit lingers here.

After the cat spirit was soaked in resentment, his behavior was no longer completely controlled by the cat's instinct.

Those who died tragically in the institute held ill will towards those staff members in the institute.In their view, the staff of those institutes are the lunatics who use people as guinea pigs to study anatomy.

That's why in this ghost domain space, things that seem unbelievable, such as the transformation of the identities of doctors and patients, and anatomical research, will appear.

The most ironic thing is that in this nursing home, the rules say which side is the patient.So, which side will become the real patient.

Qi Wuguo put his hands in his pockets and walked forward side by side with Duan Li.He whispered his speculation, and Duan Li looked at him from time to time, nodding in agreement.

Huang Meiling who followed them was Zhu Ran who was as quiet as if he had suffered from mutism.

One is that he feels that he can't get in the way, and the other is that Qi Wuguo explained everything that happened in the nursing home with a very logical thinking.

She is also an old player who has experienced several games. Although the details are blurred, she knows that most of the previous clearances were found by key clues and then passed the level.

But no one knows the basic setting of the entire ghost domain small space.

In the eyes of these old players, the only reason for Li Gui to exist here is to kill people, and there is no reason for it.

Unexpectedly, all these things can be connected by a single line.

Qi Wuguo paused for a moment, and said: "To be precise, the level boss of this game is actually two in one, the cat spirit and the patient's grievance part, you can clear the level by taking either one."

Duan Li said: "Those who can clear this game should probably follow the line of the patient's hostility."

"Oh?" Qi Wuguo raised his eyebrows, "How can you be so sure."

"Ordinary people generally don't challenge the bottom line to open the box, and they don't think of the saying that curiosity killed the cat from the previous clues."

Qi Wuguo rubbed his chin and said, "I'll take a closer look at what you said, why do you think you're scolding me?"

"I'm praising you." Duan Li's tone was flat and very convincing.

"..."

Huang Meiling looked at the two people in front of her and always felt that something was wrong with them.It is clear that they are about to face the boss of the level, and it is extremely dangerous, but how can these two people give people a feeling of being relaxed and at ease, as if they are on an outing.

After a few conversations, the specimen room on the first floor was already in sight.

The specimen room is still locked with a code, but fortunately Huang Meiling and Zhu Ran were on duty together before.She was also very thoughtful, and silently wrote down the password when Zhu Ran entered it.

After the door opened, what appeared in front of us were rows and rows of glass jars.

This room is the one that Qi Wuguo saw from the outside on the first day, but the empty glass jar has been filled.

Among them was a familiar person, Dr. Song.

Huang Meiling didn't want to take a look at this scene, and said directly: "Let's go in."

Qi Wuguo glanced at it, but didn't think there was anything wrong.

In the eighteen hells in the underworld, there are many more cruel scenes than this one. Although Qi Wu Guo is not working there, he has seen many similar scenes.

He said: "It should have nothing to do with this side."

As soon as Duan Li heard it, he knew that he had a plan in mind, and asked: "What are you looking for?"

"The dead body of a cat."

Huang Meiling was taken aback, and asked, "Isn't the cat's body in the box?"

Qi Wuguo said: "That corpse is just an illusion, representing the cat spirit's obsession."

Huang Meiling didn't ask any more questions, and led the two of them to the inner room: "Before, Zhu Ran and I were on duty here."

This is a very ordinary office, nothing special.There are not even specimens, and the weird and terrifying feeling of the specimen room outside is completely invisible.

Qi Wuguo and Duan Li walked around the room and found that there were no clues.

Just when everyone was about to give up and leave, Qi Wuguo suddenly said, "Do you think the decoration style of this room is quite strange?"

"How to say?" Duan Li is an extreme pragmatist, and doesn't pay too much attention to these decorative things.

Qi Wuguo said, "Only this room is covered with wallpaper."

He walked over and lifted a corner of the wallpaper from the gap, and then he tore off a whole piece of wallpaper with force.

What was exposed in front of everyone was a rather old wall with criss-cross cracks on the wall.

Qi Wuguo said: "It seems that this wall still retains its original appearance after the earthquake, so the cat's body will be easy to find."

Qi Wuguo took a few steps back, visually detected the largest crack, and then squatted down to look inside.

There's something in the crack, it's just hard to see in the dim light

A flashlight was thoughtfully handed over to Qi Wuguo, and he said to Duan Li, "Thank you."

Afterwards, Qi Wuguo turned on the flashlight and shone inside.

Sure enough, deep in the crack was the corpse of a cat.

In this extremely dry environment, the cat corpse did not rot, but became like a specimen.Its fur even glowed with a golden luster under the light.

This is an orange cat.

Qi Wuguo said, "Think of a way to get the cat's body out."

Tools were easy to find, and they found something resembling a long hook in the herbarium outside.Judging from the location of the discovery, this long hook should be used to take out the specimens in the glass jar.

Huang Meiling said: "Since the tool is in this room, Zhu Ran, no, why didn't the cat spirit take out the corpse by himself."

Qi Wuguo squatted there to hook the corpse inside, and then explained: "Animals are different from humans, especially cats, which are very vigilant creatures, once suffered a big loss in this crack. Of course it won't come any closer."

Having said that, he felt that his hands had been hooked, so he raised his hand and pulled it out, bringing out the whole cat corpse.

"Even if it is dead, it will still not approach this place that has been judged to be extremely dangerous."

After this cat corpse appeared in front of everyone, its radiant fur was even more gorgeous than it looked in the cracks.

"Sure enough, it's an old cat."

Even though the cat in front of him has been dead for a long time, it still maintains the state of life, with tiger stripes on its orange fur, which looks like a carefully prepared animal specimen.

After Huang Meiling saw it, the fear in her heart suddenly disappeared, and she asked, "What's next?"

"Of course it's to lure the cat out of the hole."

What Qi Wuguo did next made the other two feel a little weird.

Duan Li originally thought that Qi Wuguo's plan was to use the cat corpse as bait, and summon the cat spirit back to the corpse through a secret method next to the crack.

Once the cat spirit returns, Duan Li will be able to subdue the cat spirit, and then dissolve the complex human grievances in its body.

Unexpectedly, Qi Wuguo actually said that there is no need to bother, he can make the cat spirit show up on his own initiative.

Then, Duan Li saw that Qi Wuguo found a bucket, filled it with water and walked towards the pool.

Duan Li followed Qi Wuguo with the body of the orange cat in his hand, and asked, "What method do you use to exorcise demons?"

Qi Wuguo smiled and said, "Follow the natural method."

Between the words, everyone has reached the crack.

Qi Wuguo put down the bucket, then took the cat's corpse, and put the cat's corpse in the bucket without hesitation.

"Meow-"

An angry scream came from the crack, and then an extremely fast shadow flew out of it, and plunged into the corpse in the barrel.

In mid-air, Zhu Ran fell heavily to the ground.

But the orange cat in the bucket suddenly moved.It used an extremely flustered movement, trying to control the somewhat stiff cat corpse, and struggled to climb out of the bucket.
