Chapter 205 Assessment
Strange Talk!
When Su Chen walked to the door of this store in the direction indicated, his brows furrowed.
The shop is not on the street front, but on the third floor of a four-story street shop, with an apartment hotel on the second floor, a movie theater on the fourth floor, and a strange talk on the third floor.
Generally, there are many training institutions like this on the second and third floors, such as some art classes or dance classes, so Su Chen is a little curious, but this strange talk pavilion is obviously not doing these businesses.
"What kind of shop is this? ”
Zhang Guozheng looked confused, because there were several posters similar to horror photos hanging at the door of the store.
"Just go in and have a look. ”
Su Chen stepped into the store first, and the general store is different from the front desk, after stepping in, there is no figure, only saw some strange sculptures, these sculptures give people an indescribable depression, and the paintings hanging on the wall are also very weird, one of them is painted with a bright red eye.
"It's not going to be a haunted house. ”
"Uncle, you still know about haunted houses. ”
Su Chen was a little surprised, it was really a bit unexpected that such an old-fashioned teacher as his uncle would know such a novelty as a haunted house.
"You think I'm the kind of stubborn person, and I even organized my class to go to a haunted house. ”
Zhang Guozheng gave his nephew a roll of his eyes, Su Chen smiled stupidly, and Wei Jun, who was following behind, couldn't help but speak: "Teacher Zhang, will my son be here?"
"I can't guarantee it, but it's probably not unlikely. ”
Su Chen continued to walk inside, and then walked a corridor, the wall of the corridor was in a dark gray style, and there were picture frames hanging on the wall every one meter, and the patterns in the frames were also in a dark and oppressive style.
Just after Su Chen walked through the corridor, a girl wearing a black robe and a black hat appeared.
"Hello, welcome to the Strange Talk Pavilion, are you going to join?"
The girl was not very old, probably in her twenties, and her skin was fair, but it was an unhealthy white, like the miserable white of a man who had not seen the sun for a long time.
"No, we're here to find someone. ”
Before Su Chen could answer, Zhang Guozheng answered first, and when he heard that he was looking for someone, the smile on the girl's face disappeared, and she replied lightly: "I'm sorry, we are not members here, so we can't enter." ”
"But we are ......"
Zhang Guozheng wanted to say more, but Su Chen interrupted his uncle's words, and asked with a smile: "If I want to join the club, what are the conditions, is it okay to pay the money." ”
"We don't charge membership fees here, and if you want to become a member of us, you have to pass our assessment. ”
The girl shook her head, her answer made Zhang Guozheng and Wei Jun a little puzzled, is there still a store that doesn't charge money now, so how can this store be opened, and they can't even pay the rent.
"Okay, I'm willing to give it a try. ”
Hearing Su Chen's words, the girl didn't say anything, took Su Chen and walked forward, and then turned left into a room similar to a secret room.
There was only a table and a dim light in the secret room, and the girl took out a test paper from the drawer and handed it to Su Chen, saying, "There are a few questions on it, as long as you get three questions right, you will be considered to have passed the first level of assessment." ”
Su Chen took the test paper, there were a total of five questions on it, and Zhang Guozheng immediately said as soon as he looked at the test paper: "I must be good at doing the questions." ”
The girl didn't stop Zhang Guozheng from taking the test paper to look at it, as if she didn't care who did the question, but after reading the first question, Zhang Guozheng was dumbfounded, and said, "What kind of topic is this?" ”
The first question is called: Cursed Death.
I have an enemy, he is much stronger than me, I want to kill him, but there is no way, later, through various channels, I knew that there is a curse that can kill the cursed person, and later I found this curse.
The curse was written in a book, and when it was opened, the first sentence in it read: "If you follow the steps described in this book, you will succeed in killing the person you want, but if you make a mistake, then the curse will come back to the caster!"
Even so, do you want to continue?
Nonsense!
It was because I had an unforgivable enemy that I had gone to great lengths to obtain this cursed book, and I began and carried out the instructions in it:
"1. Close your eyes first and concentrate on the face of the person you want to kill. ”
The guy's face...... I can't forget it, I immediately think back to his facial features, what is the next thing?
2. Then imagine carefully how you should curse him. ”
I immediately recalled all the painful deaths I could think of in my mind, and then I came back?
"3. Finally, please open your eyes. ”
Question: Who died.
"This is nonsense, where is such a curse. Zhang Guozheng said.
"This is the question, everything is carried out according to the assumptions of the question, just give the answer. The girl explained.
Su Chen smiled after reading the question and replied, "The cursed person is dead, and the cursed person is still alive." ”
"Why is this the answer?" The girl asked.
Because the cursed man has reversed the order of the second and third steps, a person will subconsciously close his eyes when he thinks and imagines. And according to the book of curses, if one step is wrong, the cursed person will die. ”
Su Chen's answer made the girl smile, pointed to the second question and said, "Congratulations on answering the first question correctly, now you can answer the second question." ”
The second question: diary.
In August 1904, I found a suspicious diary in my home.
First of all, my family was purchased by my wife when I got married 6 years ago, but my wife had been killed in a shipwreck with her two daughters the year before last, and although the two daughters were washed up on two different shores two days later, they were still not saved.
The other day, I invited a carpenter to renovate my wife's room, and he handed me a diary that he said had been found in the ceiling of my wife's room. That diary is indeed the handwriting of his wife, yes, I opened it and looked at it:
7 / 15: From today onwards, I want your husband to live with you. (It was my wedding anniversary with my wife.) )
9/21: Still, I'm not going to leave your husband.
12 / 9: It's because you're who I am.
2 / 23: It's almost there!
2 of 29: Can you get it?
Question: Why did the man flee in panic after reading his wife's diary?
After reading this question, Su Chen frowned, but Zhang Guozheng on the side immediately replied: "I know the answer, there is a mistake in time, first of all, the man found this diary in 1904, and his wife and daughter died two years ago, that is, in 1902, and the house was purchased and moved in in 1898, so it can be inferred from the first piece of information in the diary that the first diary was written on July 15, 1898." ”
As a primary school teacher, Zhang Guozheng has taught mathematics and Chinese, and he is very sensitive to leap years, because this is the content of primary school textbooks, and when he saw this topic, he immediately thought that there was a problem with the last date of February 29.
Like the general elementary school math problem, if the test is related to a leap year, there will be a February 29th, and then through this to deduce the year, this is his professional habit of teaching for many years.
"From 1898 to 1904, there was only one leap year, that is, 1904, and February 29 only had a leap year, his wife died in 1902, how could he write a diary in 1904, the man's estimation felt that he had met a ghost, so he ran away. ”
Zhang Guozheng felt that his explanation was correct, but the girl just shook her head.
"Isn't that correct?"
Zhang Guozheng was a little puzzled, while Su Chen spoke at this time.
The man's wife is not dead, and it can be seen from the title that the man's wife should be very rich, because it was acquired by the house chosen by the wife, and this sentence is proof of this. ”
Su Chen looked at the girl, and then continued: "The man's wife and two daughters were shipwrecked, and two days later, the bodies of the two daughters were washed ashore, but only the body of the wife was never seen, so it is not certain that his wife is dead. ”
It's easy to focus on the date of February 29th, but to ignore the fourth diary, which says, "It's because of you that I'm who I am." ”
Zhang Guozheng heard his nephew's words, looked at it carefully, and then asked suspiciously: "There is no problem with this sentence, this wife is talking about the situation after meeting his husband." ”
"Uncle, what if you understand it in another way, what if this shipwreck is a conspiracy, and this man wants to kill his wife and daughter?"
Su Chen glanced at the girl meaningfully, and when Zhang Guozheng heard Su Chen's explanation, he suddenly shuddered, and the cold hairs on his body stood up.
She loves her husband very much, even if she is so, she is unwilling to leave her husband, but she is not willing to let her husband see her current appearance, so she is hiding at home, and the fourth diary should be the wife found the truth about the shipwreck, which was designed by her husband, and she wants to take revenge on her husband, so there are the last two diaries. ”
The full explanation of this story should be that the man did not love his wife, but only liked his wife's money, so he designed the shipwreck, but the wife luckily did not die, and hid at home and found out the truth and wanted to take revenge on the man. ”
After saying this, Su Chen looked at the girl, and the smile on the girl's face became even worse, and finally burst into applause.
"Congratulations, you have passed our first test, and you don't have to answer the remaining three questions. ”
