Chapter 19: The Mystery Box
"No, isn't it just a toilet, you guys don't have to ...... it one by one" Seeing the solemn atmosphere among the people, Zhang Qiang originally wanted to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, but as he spoke, his own face became more and more pale.
"In that case, then you should go over and have a look!" Zhao Qiqi glanced at him and said.
"That's right!" Wang Yi and Du Deming spoke in unison.
"Hey, you guys, I'm not kidding!" Zhang Qiang hurriedly waved his hand: "I have small arms and legs, let's let Xiao Ming, a martial arts master, go first!" ”
Du Deming, who has always been brave, did not say anything this time.
I glanced at his somewhat nervous face and sighed.
"I'll go!" I took a step forward.
Without further ado, I grabbed the broom behind the dormitory door and put it across my chest, and walked to the bathroom.
"Ready, are you ready?" Looking at the others nervously, I asked.
"Ready." Everyone nodded.
When I was about to reach out and touch the doorknob, there was a sudden dingdong above my head, and then the voice of "True Demon" sounded: "The player triggers an important plot, do you want to continue?" ”
Seeing this, my heart sank even more.
Even the "true demon" is so suggested, that is, inside...... There really is a situation.
After a struggle of thoughts, I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth and clicked to confirm, my sweaty hand slammed into the toilet doorknob, and turned ......
The moment the toilet door opened, there was a smell of blood coming from inside, and there was an indescribable stench.
Everyone subconsciously looked into the toilet at the same time, but Rao is several people had already been mentally prepared, but they were still shocked by the scene inside.
A teenage boy was hung from the hot water pipe of the toilet shower in an extremely twisted position, his neck had been twisted to expose his bones, and the blood was running down his neck, which was already black and solidified.
The boy's eyes were round and bulging to the point of exaggeration, his mouth was wide open, his fingers were clenched, and there was a foul smell of filth coming from his thighs.
"Vomiting ......" Zhang Qiang and Du Deming saw this situation, and immediately rushed out of the dormitory and vomited outside.
And Wang Yi and I are just barely holding on, Situ Cao is a doctor, and the reaction is not so strong.
And the most surprising thing is Zhao Qiqi.
Her expression was a little ugly, but she was the calmest of us.
I saw Zhao Qiqi bypassing me and approaching the toilet. Walked around the boy's body and began to look at it.
She touched the boy's skin and said, "I shouldn't have been dead for long, it looks like we died after we got into the horror game." ”
After saying that, she reached out and touched the boy's jacket pocket.
"You!" My eyes widened in surprise: "Aren't you afraid?" ”
Zhao Qiqi glanced at it and said with a smile: "Although I am only a third-rate horror novelist, I still have the most basic quality to overcome fear. What's more, it's just a game. ”
I looked up at the corpse that couldn't have been more real, knowing that I was only in the world of horror games, but ......
With a fist, I also forced myself to overcome my inner fear, and stepped forward to flip up the boy's other pocket.
As soon as my hand reached in, I came across something hard. I took it out, and it was a gift box.
"Look, what is this?" I handed the gift box to Zhao Qiqi.
The voice of the "True Demon" sounded again: "The player obtains the key clue and triggers the optional task at the same time: find Qin Hui's crush on the girl, do you accept it?" ”
I glanced at Zhao Qiqi and Wang Yi. Zhao Qiqi nodded.
So, several people agreed to confirm it.
"But, who is Qin Hui?" Wang Yi was puzzled.
I had already begun to get used to this bloody scene, and I reached out and took the student card hanging on the boy's chest: "Sure enough, the boy who died is Qin Hui." Now the system is supposed to let us find out who his crush is. ”
At this time, Zhao Qiqi was bringing the gift box in his hand to his nose and sniffing it.
"What's wrong?" I asked curiously.
Zhao Qiqi motioned for the two of us to go out first.
It wasn't until she walked out of the toilet that she opened the box, which contained a delicate and small bracelet inlaid with a few flowers, which didn't look cheap.
"I smell a faint scent of jasmine on the box." Zhao Qiqi said.
I took the bracelet and thought, "Looks like I want to give it to a girl!" ”
"Although I don't know much about girls' jewelry, it seems that this thing should not be cheap." Wang Yi also said.
At this time, Situ Cao walked in with Zhang Qiang and Du Deming.
"What is this?" Zhang Qiang's eyes were sharp, and he saw the bracelet on Wang Yi's hand at a glance.
"No, I found it in the box that the boy had rummaged out of his pocket." I glanced at Zhang Qiang: "You kid is so fast?" ”
"Hey, I wasn't mentally prepared just now, now I'm doing a good job of psychological construction, it's okay!" Zhang Qiang patted his chest, his face was still slightly pale.
I turned my head to look at Du Deming again, and saw that he was also overly frightened, thinking that even if he was good at kung fu, after all, he was still young, and it was inevitable that he would get out of control when he saw such a disgusting scene with his own eyes.
After briefly telling them what the three of them had discovered just now, I turned my face to look at Zhao Qiqi.
"What do we do now?" I asked.
Several other people also looked at her expectantly.
Zhao Qiqi's expression didn't change much: "At present, the only clue we get is that this dead boy has a crush on a girl, and it seems that he is going to give her a gift, so the possibility of suicide is ruled out." As far as I can tell, this is most likely the scene of the first crime,"
She paused, then added, "So, we should now carefully search every corner of the room to see if there are any useful clues." ”
"You mean, as long as we find new clues and find that girl, it is very likely to find out the truth of the matter?" I asked.
As soon as these words came out, several other people showed happy expressions.
Zhao Qiqi's face suddenly became a little solemn, and she glanced at us: "Don't be too happy. The game may seem simple and not difficult, but if we miss the best golden time, we could die here. ”
"Why?" Situ Cao asked.
"yes, why? Isn't it easy enough that no one has been injured or attacked by any of our team members? Zhang Qiang looked suspicious.
"Not really." Zhao Qiqi shook his head: "If you think about it carefully, unlike being put into a whole world, now our scope of activities should be limited to the inside of the school, even if no one attacks us, nothing else happens, in the case of insufficient supplies, how many days do you think we can survive?" ”
"What do you mean......" I suddenly understood what she was thinking.
"That's right, if we don't find a clue to get out quickly, we will be trapped alive in this desperate school." She looked at us and said seriously.
