Paintings of Terror

Although people's eyes were fixed on He Yu's corpse, their footsteps were subconsciously farther and farther away from it. This strange vision made people feel very unlucky, as if once they touched it, they would belong to the same dimension.

Qin Ci also didn't intend to examine the corpse: "I'm afraid this is beyond the scope of medicine, and there is nothing I can do."

The sobbing of the girls came to an end at some point, and in everyone's eyes, the corpse on the bed seemed to have nothing to do with He Yu.

Everyone tried to check every corner of the room to search for possible causes of death. Ye Ningchen had even carefully observed the walls, for fear that Zhang Tianwei would be "painted" in some unknown place.

"Are all the windows in your room open?" Zhu Haowen's eyes stayed on the fully open windows.

The windows here have no screens, and once the glass sash is opened, it is completely ventilated—although there seems to be no wind in this world.

People in the other four rooms all denied it, and the windows of their respective rooms were tightly closed.

So who opened the window in this room?Is it Zhang Tianwei who "leaved"?Or the murderer from last night?

Everyone had no desire to stay in this room. After the inspection failed, they took the door together and left, and came to the more familiar lobby on the first floor.

There was a rich breakfast on the table, with fresh fruit, delicate pastries and tempting sausages, but most people had no appetite.

"How do we arrange today?" Shi Zhendong asked first.

Qin Ci swallowed the bread with jam in his mouth, and took another sip of hot milk: "According to the requirements of the NPC, our task today is still to store three big cans of berries. According to yesterday's workload, if we all work together, we can do it in two or three cans." It can be done in an hour, so we might as well divide the labor and work together, leaving one person in each room to work, and the rest of the people to find autographs separately."

Ye Ningchen said: "There is also Zhang Xuechang, maybe he is imprisoned somewhere."

Although everyone guessed that Zhang Tianwei was in danger, they still nodded reassuringly.

Qin Ci: "Then each group will discuss the arrangement of personnel, and they can take turns in the morning and afternoon separately."

"Leave me to work alone in our blue team. Those two kids are clumsy. If I do it myself, I can finish it in five or six hours." Guo Lixia's words made everyone look at her with admiration, and then listened to her: "Everyone Try this fried egg, it's so delicious! I ate four of them!"

"..."

Wei Dong of the purple group took the initiative to say: "Boss Mu searched for signatures all day long. Let's take shifts in the morning and afternoon, right?" Wei Dong said this to Ye Ningchen, who was in the same group.

Ye Ningchen nodded: "I'll do my work first in the morning, Brother Dong and Brother Mu will go find autographs."

After discussion in the yellow group, Miao Zipei stayed to work first, while Qin Ci and Mi Wei were responsible for finding things.

Shi Zhendong of the green group asked to stay and work in the morning: "Xiao Zhu has a strong observation ability, I believe he should find something."

Xin Beibei's face was a bit ugly, and she wanted to be with her boyfriend in her heart: "Your observation skills are not bad, why do you have to ask him to find you?"

Guo Lixia directly interrupted Xin Beibei: "Shouldn't we change in the afternoon? How about we change now?"

"Aunt Guo! Didn't you say that you are in charge of all the work in our room?!" Xin Beibei's voice suddenly rose.

Ke Xun looked at his team members: "Working is everyone's obligation. Sister Guo's taking on those tasks is in itself a kind of contribution to everyone."

Xin Beibei curled her lips, having nothing to say, she looked at Zhu Haowen, and saw that he was eating breakfast slowly.

Shi Zhendong didn't know how to coax his girlfriend softly, Xin Beibei's expression became much better, and she softly told her boyfriend: "Don't be so stupid and work hard..."

Zhu Haowen wiped his mouth with a napkin: "I advise everyone to eat as much as possible. Finding autographs is hard work."

The others thought it made sense, forced themselves to eat some breakfast, and then acted according to the division of labor just now—Guo Lixia, Ye Ningchenyi, Miao Zipei and Shi Zhendong temporarily stayed in the rooms of each color to work, and the others prepared to work. go find something.

Qin Ci urged everyone again: "Everyone must remember, never violate the rules again, those rooms that do not match their own colors are not allowed to enter, maybe there is a suspicion of polluting the color."

Everyone nodded secretly, no one wanted to be the next He Yu.

Shi Zhendong turned to Ke Xun and said, "Xiao Ke, I have to ask you to take care of Beibei, and don't let her go where she shouldn't go."

Ke Xun didn't say anything more, just nodded.

The four people in charge of the work went to the rooms of their respective colors.

There were seven people left in the hall.

"Let's divide them into two groups according to indoor and outdoor for the time being." Qin Ci expressed his opinion, "The two girls' mobility is relatively weak, so it's best to separate them."

Mu Yiran also expressed his thoughts: "Looking at it now, we mainly focus on the pools and mazes outside where we can see, and the fruit forests and rivers in the distance are too far away from the center, so we don't think about it for the time being. .”

Xin Beibei couldn't help but said, "I want to go outside to find something!"

Everyone ignored Xin Beibei's waywardness and continued to listen to Mu Yiran's words: "There are a lot of rooms in the building, and there are hundreds of them by visual inspection. This is a very huge workload. We need to check each room, so we stay in the castle. Better to have more people searching."

Qin Ci nodded: "I'll stay in the castle, who else will come?"

Mu Yiran said, "Count me in."

Ke Xun's voice followed like a shadow: "Count me in as well."

Wei Dong: "Ke Er and I cannot be separated."

Zhu Haowen, Mi Wei and Xin Beibei were the only ones left.

Xin Beibei looked at Ke Xun: "You promised Zhendong to take care of me! I want to check the pool!"

Ke Xun really wanted to kick this annoying girl, but suddenly he heard the other party say: "Also, I don't want to be with this person!"

The person Xin Beibei was referring to was Zhu Haowen.

Zhu Haowen smiled lightly: "It's best for you to stay in the lobby to eat and drink."

"What did you say..." Xin Beibei trembled with anger.

Mi Wei, who was always calm, stepped forward and said: "Doctor Qin is right, the two girls are best separated. My idea is that Brother Ke and Brother Wei will take Beibei to look outside, and the rest of us will be in charge of the castle."

"Let's do it like this." Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun, "If you find anything, come back and discuss it together."

Ke Xun tilted his head to look at Mu Yiran, and pouted his upper lip, as if making a silent kiss, or a silent whistle, or chanting a word, smooth?Maybe something else.

Mu Yiran's expression was very calm, but not as cold as before.

Mi Wei's distribution is actually very reasonable, the five men present are all experienced "old men", they are not suitable for being too densely distributed together.

So, people divided into two groups, each went to search.

Xin Beibei was very interested in that pool, and walked over there quickly. The pool seemed to sense that someone was approaching, and suddenly sprayed bright silver-like water, splashing everyone's body with water droplets.

"Look, there are a lot of coins in the pool! This is really a wishing pool!" Xin Beibei called everyone to come and have a look.

Ke Xun Weidong walked over to have a look, and the bottom of the pool was indeed covered with shiny coins, the texture of which was very peculiar.

Wei Dong teased Xin Beibei: "You forgot what Mi Wei said yesterday, don't make wishes for things you don't know the details of easily, there is no wish in the world that can be obtained in vain."

Sitting by the pool, Xin Beibei flicked the cool water with her hand: "I have everything, I am very content! As long as we get out of here, I will be the happiest person in the world~"

Wei Dong was embarrassed for Xin Beibei, and looked at Ke Xun who was studying the coins carefully by the pool: "Why, are there signatures on these coins? You can't be so lucky."

Ke Xun stared intently for a long time: "Dongzi, come and see!"

Wei Dong squinted his nearsighted eyes and looked at it for a long time: "The patterns on these are different. You can see that this one is full of leaves, that one is full of dots, and the nearest one is full of crooked moons. ..."

Speaking of this, Wei Dong also felt something strange, and hastily looked down at his clothes. The white base was embroidered with triangular purple patterns. After searching around in the pool, he found that several coins had triangular patterns on them. of.

"These coins are consistent with the patterns on our clothes. What does that mean?" The more Weidong looked at the pond, the weirder it became. Perhaps it was because the patterns on each person's clothes were different, and these patterns seemed to be unique to each person. , "There is definitely something wrong with this pool. It feels like it has mastered our birth date."

Xin Beibei was unaware of this: "There are many patterns in the world, does this triangular pattern belong to you alone?"

Ke Xun stroked his chin and circled the pool twice: "Since the pattern representing Zhang Tianwei is still there, it proves that the coins in the pool do not indicate anything—if this is really the wishing pool, then these patterns should be Represents various elements."

"Elements?" The other two obviously didn't want to understand.

"It's as if some people worship the five elements, and some people worship wind, rain, thunder and lightning. People in this world probably worship these elements, so they will be engraved on coins, and they will be thrown into the pool when making a wish. This is probably like people in our world praying for good weather.” Ke Xun expressed his thoughts, but for the time being, he still couldn’t figure out how these elements are related to the main line of the whole picture.

Xin Beibei observed the shape of the fountain in the center of the pool: "It's really strange. What do you say this stone sculpture is trying to express? I really can't tell whether it is a person or an animal."

Ke Xun Weidong's eyes were also attracted by the shape of the fountain carved out of the black stone. This thing is indeed formless, and it is really hard to see what it is.

"It's really strange, even if it's an abstract thing, people should understand what it wants to express, and in my experience, the more abstract something is, the more vivid the meaning it expresses." Xin Beibei finally became a professional art student .

The shape of the stone sculpture in front of you seems to tell you deliberately that this is a chaos with four different shapes, no head and no feet, and it is still a concrete chaos.

Ke Xun suddenly remembered the black belt that kept changing in width and width that he saw in front of the window last night. If they had to be linked together, the two things were really alike.

"Let's go and see that green maze again. I really like this kind of furry maze made of green plants. It seems that you can only see it in foreign fairy tales!" Xin Beibei turned her eyes to the maze again.

"Come back! Something has happened!" shouted a voice from above the castle.

Everyone looked up and saw Qin Ci waving downward from a window above.
