In this place, what is left is barbarism, and what is worn out is humanity.

Chen Shi looked at the people in front of him with his eyes closed, holding the cap of the pen in his left hand and groping gently, this is his habitual action when thinking about problems, and the touch of metal makes him feel at ease.

As the time passed, Chen Shi raised his head, looked at the judge, and raised the number plate in his hand.

"It's dawn, last night the twelfth died, and the game is over."

Luo Xuan looked at Yang Hao indifferently, knowing the truth from Yang Hao's equally overwhelmed expression.

"You're still doing this unscrupulous."

Chen Shi looked at the two people who were taken away from the venue expressionlessly, and turned his head to look at the staff: "When will the next game be held?" ”

……

Before coming here, Chen Shi was just an ordinary IT man, responsible for some software development. If it weren't for his sister, he might have lived in obscurity for the rest of his life, doing some behind-the-scenes work.

Chen Shi is twenty-seven this year, and he has a younger sister Chen Xiu who just graduated from high school, and her parents are more than half a hundred years old and work in other places all the year round, so her sister has been brought up by Chen Shi.

For Chen Shi, his undergraduate major in sociology can be described as chicken ribs, he can neither find a part-time job with quick money, nor find a job in the system through the network, so he minored in computer science after class, and has nothing to do by repairing computers and doing programs to earn extra money, in addition to the monthly living expenses from his parents, it is more than enough to support his sister.

Although Chen Shi is so ordinary, he has an extraordinary sister. Sister Chen Xiu has always been the school's man of the hour, key middle school, grades have never fallen below the top three in the grade, she is still very beautiful, she originally wanted to learn mathematics, but she changed the law when she volunteered, but what did not affect it was that she still won the city college entrance examination that year.

is such a smart and decisive sister who was lost by Chen Shi.

It was about the end of June, and there were still two months before leaving school, and Chen Xiu mysteriously sent a text message, only a few words: "Brother, it's time for me to raise you." ”

Chen Shi didn't think much about it at that time, because no matter what Xiuxiu did, he would not be surprised, even if she gambled, she would come back with a lot of money. But a whole week has passed, and there is no trace of Chen Xiu, so Chen Shi is a little anxious.

The phone can't get through, WeChat QQ can't be contacted, and even the classmates who have searched Xiuxiu can't contact her, Chen Shi doesn't dare to call the police, because calling the police means that the parents will know, and they are far away from the emperor, and they can't help anything and have to follow the hurry. Chen Shi could only ask for leave from the unit, and then searched aimlessly in the places where his sister had been every day, and posted missing person notices in crowded places.

After about a few more days, Chen Shi sat on the park bench in despair, he really couldn't do it, so he could only tell his parents first, and the big thing was not as important as Xiuxiu's safety.

Just as he was hesitating whether to dial it out, a strange man sat quietly beside Chen Shi.

"Hello, I'm Ah Lai, and I'm inviting you to participate in a game on behalf of Spirit Company."

"I'm not interested."

It was already enough to be anxious, but this person didn't come over to recommend any games, Chen Shi didn't want to communicate with him much, so he stood up and dialed the phone.

"If you want to find your sister, hang up the phone." The man's voice behind him was small enough that Chen Shi could still hear it clearly.

"Hey, what's wrong?" The phone has been connected.

Turning around, Ah Lai looked at his eyes expressionlessly, Chen Shi thought for a second, and said into the phone: "Oh, it's Mom, I'm going to call Xiuxiu and ask her if she wants to eat together, I made a mistake." ”

"Hey, I said what kind of wind are you smoking at noon, then you can continue to fight."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Shi looked at Ah Lai, he was wearing a black windbreaker, with a slender figure, a head divided into three or seven, and a serious expression, looking like he was about thirty years old: "Where is Xiuxiu?" ”

"Participate in the game and you have a chance to find her." Ah Lai's tone was steady, as if he was not at all worried that Chen Shi would reject him.

"What if I don't participate?"

"If you don't participate, Chen Xiu will disappear forever."

Chen Shi was silent, countless possibilities were running fast in his heart, he must be completely sure that he would participate in the game, so that there would be no waves. Calling the police is not necessarily useful, but it is better to try your luck.

"What game?"

"Bounty Scramble, Survivor Game."

"What's the rules of the game?"

"The battle royale promotion game, the player base is 36 people, divided into three venues, starting from the second game, each round of the game will eliminate some players, and in the end only one player will be left as the final winner, and the final winner can get a huge bounty. The eliminated player has three options, one is to participate in the repechage to continue the game, one is to pay off the huge debt immediately, and the other is to provide labor to the debtor as a debtor until the debt is paid off. ”

"And when will I see my sister?"

"When you win, you can ask to see the organizers and he will take you there."

"When will I participate?"

Chen Shi left the park with Alai, walked all the way to the provincial highway on the outskirts of the city, and waited for about an hour, a bus without a license plate stopped in front of him, and Chen Shi followed Alai to get on the bus.

There were only two seats left in the car with 38 people, one was the seat next to Ah Lai in the first row, and the other was an empty seat in the last row, and there was a girl sitting next to the vacant seat, Chen Shi walked to the back without hesitation.

"Hello, will you let me sit on the side? I had some motion sickness. Chen Shi nodded, thinking that she didn't need to say this to herself, she was originally coming first, and she was already sitting by the window and had to talk to herself, which was quite polite.

The girl's politeness made Chen Shi look at her more, probably not a few years younger than herself, her hair was yellow as if she was poorly nourished, her skin was so white that she was bloodless, her brown eyes were too thin.

"Hello players." It was Ah Lai who spoke, and he attracted everyone's attention with one mouth: "In the case that everyone is voluntary, all 36 players have arrived, and if you regret it, you can choose to get off the bus now." ”

After stopping for about a minute, seeing that no one had the intention of getting off, Ah Lai continued: "It is now 14 o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time on July 14, 2018, and the estimated arrival time is 18 o'clock in the evening. The people who sit in this car with you may be your opponent or your teammates, and you can get to know each other during this time. ”

Knowing each other, Chen Shi couldn't help but sneer, did he want everyone to share how he was deceived?

After carefully reviewing the rules of the game, if Ah Lai hadn't lied, then Xiuxiu would at least be alive, and it is very likely that she participated in the game and failed. But if she fails, she can't pay so much debt, and she should be going to work for the organizer. She was just an adult child, and she didn't know what work she would be asked to do.

Having said that, when Alai mentioned the debts of the eliminated players, he described them as huge, and the winners' bonuses were also huge, so how did Xiuxiu participate in the game when he had no chips and how did he go into debt? If you win the game and get the prize money, you should be able to redeem Xiuxiu.
