Chapter 292: Zhao Ping's decision

"Huh? Are you saying that the three of you were killed by a scorpion halfway through, and your girlfriend Zhao Xiaomei was killed by a scorpion during her escape? The same is true for Yao Fujiang? ”

At this moment, after listening to Wu Wei's half-truthful narration in front of him, Zhao Ping still didn't have much surprise reaction, not only was he not surprised, but he didn't even show the sadness that his teammates should have died, just like it was not his teammates who died but some inconsequential cats and dogs, the glasses man's reaction was so bland, however......

However, it was precisely the other party's calm reaction that made Wu Wei feel worried.

Inexplicably, the young president of the company thought of one thing, recalling some of the words that Yao Fujiang had said to him and Zhao Xiaomei earlier, the guy with glasses in front of him did feel different from other veterans, different from He Fei who seemed to be kind-tempered, different from Ye Wei who looked generous, different from Peng Hu who looked hot-tempered, different from Cheng Ying who looked arrogant, and different from Yao Fujiang who had a direct personality, the man named Zhao Ping in front of him gave him a sense of coldness that he had never had, of course, Although Wu Wei's feeling was largely influenced by Yao Fujiang's initial remarks, it was undeniable that the man with glasses standing in front of him did have an indifferent attitude towards the death of his teammates.

This inevitably made Wu Wei, who was a little untruthful, more and more uneasy.

Yes, how Zhao Xiaomei and Yao Fujiang died Wu Wei knew in his heart, not only did he have a number, but the deaths of these two people were inseparable from him, and they were even killed by him directly or indirectly, and his girlfriend Zhao Xiaomei was just that, at that time, he would kick each other in order to escape as soon as possible, as for Yao Fujiang...... In the face of the glasses man's inquiry, Wu Wei, who was timid but also thoughtful, immediately made up a story that could be used as a fake, and then narrated the story in a half-truth-like way.

As for Zhao Ping, after listening to Wu Wei's narration, he really didn't react, just asked in a rhetorical tone, and when he saw the other party asking again, Wu Wei's face couldn't help but change slightly, having said that, thanks to the darkness of the surrounding environment, he knew that the other party could not detect anything, Wu Wei then rolled his eyes and nodded and replied: "Yes, they are like this...... It was ...... like this Woo...... Xiaomei, my Xiaomei...... If I could have looked back at the time, it wouldn't have happened......"

Speaking of this, Wu Wei became more and more sad, and finally let out a little cry while showing pain, it seems that he is really a good man who values love and righteousness.

Wu Wei was alone and regretful and sad alone, Zhao Ping was silent, in the dark, he couldn't see the expression on his face and couldn't detect what he was thinking, for a while, the man with glasses stood in the dark and dark power room with Wu Wei, who was sad in front of him, and didn't move for a long time, until Wu Wei gradually stopped sobbing, Zhao Ping opened his mouth to Wu Wei after scanning the surrounding environment: "Then ...... now"

Dada-da.

Unexpectedly, before Zhao Ping finished speaking, the sound came from outside the door, from directly above the stairs near the door, and a series of footsteps from far and near came from the stairs!

In the dark environment, the footsteps can be clearly felt to be a little hurried, and it is obvious that if it is possible to remove the mantises, then the person who is currently going downstairs ......

At this moment, not to mention that Zhao Ping's heart was running tight when he heard the footsteps, but Wu Wei's face changed greatly the moment he heard the footsteps! The footsteps in his ears reminded him of the footsteps he had heard when he was in the utility room on the 10th floor not long ago, yes, it was the footsteps that attracted him, his girlfriend and Yao Fujiang to take the initiative to run out of hiding, and then, they were deceived, deceived by the string of footsteps, otherwise they would not have exposed their location and would not have ended up like this, although Zhao Xiaomei and Yao Fujiang died, it is undeniable that the culprit of all this came from that string of footsteps.

The moth can disguise its voice to deceive humans!

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of the well rope, when he heard the footsteps for the second time, Wu Wei, who had personally experienced being deceived by the sting, was almost scared out of the for the second time, and without waiting for the man with glasses in front of him to react, Wu Wei, who had already subconsciously regarded the footsteps as a deception trap, said to Zhao Ping on the spot: "Don't, don't go out!" It's a mantis! It must be a moth! ”

It's a pity that Wu Wei's stop was not adopted by Zhao Ping, it is true that Zhao Ping's first reaction when he first heard the footsteps was similar to Wu Wei, he was also worried that this was a deception trap created by the mantis, but unlike Wu Wei, compared to Wu Wei, who knew little about the black shadow mantis, he knew the killing conditions of the black shadow mantis and he had ruled out the possibility of the mantis trap in a moment, it was obvious that although the black shadow mions in this mission were as murderous and cruel as most of the mantises, they were a little special, The biggest peculiarity is that the Black Shadow Scorpion can only kill people in an environment where there is light and shadows, and the environment he is currently in is pitch black, and the power supply equipment behind him has also been destroyed, since this is the case......

So does the Black Shadow Meight, who knows that it can't kill people in the dark, still make this kind of sound to deceive the executor? What's more, in the clues he obtained, there is no need to look for this black shadow mantith if he wants to kill someone, as long as you have a shadow, then the black shadow mth can find and kill you in an instant, which means that there is no point in hiding in this supernatural mission.

The main reason why Wu Wei and the three of them were deceived by the black shadow marrow was that the three people happened to be in the lightless utility room at that time, and there was a brightly lit corridor outside the door, and the black shadow marrow could not kill people in the lightless environment, so they deliberately made a noise and successfully lured the three of them to leave the utility room on their own initiative.

In this way......

There are a lot of descriptions, in fact, all of this is an instantaneous thought in the mind of the man with glasses when the footsteps sounded, as I said before, let's not talk about the analysis ability of the veterans, and the single mention of caution and control of logic Zhao Ping is not inferior to anyone, without a logical brain, he cannot live in the cursed space until now, sure enough, based on this logical thinking, based on the characteristics of the black shadow mantis, plus there is no point in hiding, after a little thought, Zhao Ping moved, first pushed away Wu Wei, who was trembling in front of him, and the next moment, Zhao Ping pushed the door out like this......

Squeak.

Perhaps the sound of opening the door is also very clear in the silent environment, as soon as Zhao Ping walked out of the power room, the footsteps that were gradually approaching above also stopped instantly, the current atmosphere is a little strange, Zhao Ping, who walked out of the room, stood at the staircase without moving, and the footsteps that sounded quite close above seemed to be in a state of stop, and the atmosphere became extremely tense for a while, however, after a moment of silence, after thinking about it, Zhao Ping took the lead in staring at the stairs above, and then said a sentence into the darkness:

"I'm Zhao Ping."

Next, the accident happened, the glasses man's voice just fell, a few seconds later, the footsteps that had stopped sounded again, as the distance gradually narrowed, soon, two familiar figures walked straight down the stairs and came straight to the glasses man.

The corridor is indeed very dark, but for the executors who have been in the dark environment for a long time, everyone is now basically adapted to the darkness, and after the distance is close to a certain extent, the two sides really see each other clearly for the first time, and the two figures who walked in front of Zhao Ping are not bystanders, it is Ye Wei and Cheng Ying, who have just arrived on the 7th floor.

As soon as they met, it was confirmed that the person in front of them was Zhao Ping, Ye Wei and Cheng Ying couldn't help but stagnate, they really didn't expect to meet the man with glasses who had been missing for a long time here, but there is a good saying, the communication between smart people is often very simple, and there is no need to say some words, just as Zhao Ping was guessing in his heart where the two people who had not seen each other for a long time were going to go, he looked the glasses man up and down a few times, and Cheng Ying said first: "The corridor lights on the middle floor and the building just now were powered off...... You did it, right? ”

Seeing that Cheng Ying didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the key point, Zhao Ping also nodded decisively and replied: "Well, I did it......"

After that, Zhao Ping paused slightly, and at the same time, a pair of eyes under the lens also looked directly at the steel pipe held in Cheng Ying's hand, and then continued: "As for the reason, I don't think I need to explain, right?" ”

In fact, this is not the point, for Zhao Ping, who met his teammates here, what he is currently concerned about is neither what the other party was doing before nor planning to knowingly ask what the meaning of the two notices is, and he doesn't even have the intention of asking about the whereabouts of He Fei and Peng Hu, now he only cares about the purpose of Ye Wei and Cheng Ying hurriedly going downstairs, so naturally, after answering Cheng Ying's question, with a narrowing of his eyes, the man with glasses also followed up and asked the two of them his question: "What I did during this period was very simple, It's nothing more than looking for the power room and finally turning off the main power, what I really want to know at the moment is what are you two going to do now? ”

Squeak.

"Ahh Mr. Ye, it turns out that it was you! That's great! That's great! ”

At the same time, when the three veterans outside the door were talking, it was confirmed that the person who came was not a person, and a man with glasses went out to be a pathfinder for himself, sure enough, Wu Wei, who was originally curled up in the power room, was suddenly overjoyed, and ran out of the power room, especially when he saw Ye Wei, the company manager who was afraid for a long time, was as happy as seeing a relative, finally! Finally found Ye Wei, with this captain who took good care of him, at least in Wu Wei's opinion, his safety will inevitably be further guaranteed, it's just ...... Arriving outside the door, although Wu Wei immediately expressed his joy in words, it was a pity that few people present paid attention to him, except for Ye Wei who nodded slightly at him with a smile on his face, Zhao Ping and Cheng Ying on the side didn't even look at him as if he didn't exist.

Getting back to the point, let's not talk about how Wu Wei, who was ignored by everyone, was embarrassed on the spot, and they have been together for a long time, whether it is Ye Wei or Cheng Ying, both of them are familiar with the male personality and style of acting in glasses, it is precisely because the two sides are familiar with each other, as soon as they met, seeing that the man with glasses did not ask He Fei and Peng Hu and did not talk about Yao Fujiang and a few people, Ye Wei, who had looked for a few people in the process of going downstairs to no avail, already understood that Zhao Ping had not seen anyone else, and in desperation, Ye Wei, who was more and more worried about the safety of several people, did not mention this matter in one move. On the contrary, he cares a little about Wu Wei, obviously, putting aside Yao Fujiang, who is as unknown as He Fei and Peng Hu, it is impossible for Ye Wei not to know that Wu Wei has been staying with Zhao Xiaomei, but ......

But why is Wu Wei the only one in front of him at this moment? If Wu Wei and Zhao Ping happened to meet when they stayed together, where did Zhao Xiaomei, who was originally inseparable from Wu Wei, go?

To be honest, only Ye Wei will care about the above problems, for Zhao Pinghe, who has always been indifferent, and Cheng Ying, who has never paid attention to newcomers, and now only cares about the safety of He Fei and Peng Hu, it can be seen at a glance from the ignorance of Wu Wei's reaction that the two don't care about the newcomer at all.

Of course, even if Ye Wei, as the captain, can take care of everyone in the team, these questions can only flash in her mind, and the only thing she is most concerned about at the moment is to test the survival plan as soon as possible, so Zhao Ping's problem came out, Ye Wei, who was in a hurry to the hall on the first floor with Cheng Ying, would not talk nonsense, and in the next time, Ye Wei immediately told Zhao Ping again the explanation she had said to Cheng Ying before.

………

"What!"

Sure enough, just like Cheng Ying's reaction when he was first on the rooftop, after listening to Ye Wei's blind spot logic and the plan that he didn't know if he could still implement, the man with glasses was surprised, for Zhao Ping, although he thought like most veterans that there must be a simple way out of this ordinary task, even though he still didn't expect it to be like this......

It's so easy!

It's simple, it's really simple, it's even so simple that as long as the executor finds this way out, the whole mission won't be in danger! However, as Ye Wei just narrated, this simple way of life that can be easily spent by only removing a sign exists in the blind spots of human thinking, in the hidden corners that any normal person will be ignored, this is indeed a trap set for the loopholes in human thinking, if Ye Wei's analysis is correct, then wouldn't these executors become a group of stupid pigs who kill themselves?

Obviously, there are only stalks in this building, but everyone enters it under the impetus of inertial thinking!

At present, although Ye Wei has thought of this life path, the other party also said that although the authenticity of this life path is high, it was ignored by everyone at the beginning of the task due to the blind spot of thinking. After all, these people are now in the building, and those who leave the building will be wiped out according to the mission, in this case, Ye Wei and Cheng Ying's behavior of hurriedly returning to the first floor is really a gamble on their lives, and they put their lives on the survival plan that accounts for half of the success or failure.

The logic is very simple, that is, if that way of life is still valid, then the person who leaves the building to transfer the sign will not be erased, but if the way of life is invalid because the executors all enter the building, then doesn't it mean that whoever goes out to transfer the sign will die?

However, if you don't carry out this plan because of the fear of death...... Ye Wei's theory that the restriction of mantis will be gradually lifted with the passage of time also threatens everyone, not to mention this matter, after the female captain said this, Zhao Ping couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart, yes, he originally calculated that it would take time to turn off the power, and then consume it until the end of the task in one go, and the result was ......

That's right, the Black Shadow Mantis once lifted the restriction after the executor punched the card, and that was the killing restriction, and God knows if the Black Shadow Mth will have other abilities when the time gradually approaches the end of the mission? Like what...... The ability to kill people in the dark!

This inference is by no means groundless, but there are traces to follow, after all, the mantis in the previous supernatural missions are almost like this, the longer the task drags on, the smaller the restrictions on the strength of the mantis will be, until it disappears completely, if that is the case, if the black shadow mantis really will gradually lift all restrictions over time, once even the darkness can't shield the black shadow marrow from killing, then doesn't it mean that this mantis that can lock the location of any living person is enough to kill everyone in just a moment?

At that point, the enforcer who is restricted by the rules and has disabled the item and has no countermeasures at all times...... Is there any other ending besides being wiped out by the group?

The reason is like this, and the logic is even more so, so Ye Wei and Cheng Ying would rather risk half of the chance of success and failure to go to the first floor to gamble on their lives, yes, compared with the inference that the limit may be gradually lifted by as high as ninety percent, the plan to make up for the loss with a failure rate of only fifty percent is considered low.

What if the plan succeeds? Once that path is still viable, the rewards are undoubtedly handsome, which means that the executors can survive the task unscathed, with the only regret that the success rate is only half of the time.

At this moment, in this quiet and dark corridor on the 7th floor, except for Wu Wei, who was confused and dazed, Ye Wei and Cheng Ying both had complicated faces, and Zhao Ping, who had just listened to the other party's explanation of the plan, stood in place for a long time without reacting, maybe the atmosphere was too depressing and maybe he thought of something in silence, Zhao Ping's face was blue and white for a while, and the man's face occasionally twitched slightly, at the same time, seeing that the man with glasses had not reacted for a long time, Ye Wei, who knew Zhao Ping quite well, also understood something in his heart, no nonsense, Without hesitation, after glancing at Cheng Ying, he immediately greeted: "Cheng Ying, let's continue downstairs." ”

"Wait!"

Who would have thought that as soon as Ye Wei's voice fell, Wu Wei, who had already regarded the female captain as a lifesaver, tried to keep up, and did not wait for Cheng Ying to retract the obvious disdain when she looked at the man with glasses just now, Zhao Ping, who had a tangled expression and looked obviously afraid to go to the first floor, suddenly opened his mouth and stopped the three people who were about to leave.

The three people who were stopped turned their eyes to the glasses man under curiosity, except for Wu Wei, who was still ignorant, Ye Wei and Cheng Ying, who knew the essence of the glasses man's fear of death, couldn't help but show suspicion in their eyes, yes, as mentioned above, the two knew that it was impossible for the glasses man to follow them to the first floor for an adventure if he was afraid of death, not to mention that Zhao Ping's obvious cowering performance just now was also expected by the two, which was also the main reason why Ye Wei did not greet the glasses man to go downstairs with him from beginning to end when he left just now, just ......

Why did the obviously scared guy stop them when they were about to leave?

At this moment, perceiving the other party's gaze, somehow, Zhao Ping, who had been cowering in fear before, regained his initial calmness, his gaze slowly swept over Ye Wei, Cheng Ying and Wu Wei, and then, maintaining an expressionless face, Zhao Ping reached out and supported the golden wire glasses on the bridge of his nose and said to several people in a calm tone:

"I'll go with you to the first floor......"

After a pause, still waiting for a few people to answer, the man with glasses continued to add in a calm tone:

"And after arriving on the first floor, I will walk out of the building and change the sign."
