Chapter 22 Candidates for National M
Soon, Gao Ying found a newspaper from the cabinet in the living room.
From the newspaper, it was not long before the answers to the first and second questions of the multiple-choice questions were known.
Here is in Massachusetts, time ...... It was December 1, 1963. The first 2 multiple-choice questions are actually out-and-out scoring questions. There were 2 questions in front of him, but Gao Ying was not at ease at all. I'm afraid...... It's a balance of the difficulty of the exam itself.
Gao Ying looked at the eye-catching news in the newspaper in front of him about the shooting of Oswald, the suspect in the assassination of Kennedy, even if he didn't look at the date in the newspaper, just seeing this news, Gao Ying was enough to know the current time.
The time for the exam is very tight, only two and a half hours, and most of the questions on the exam paper can only be known when you go outside. In other words, even if you know that it is dangerous outside, you can only choose to go out. And once you encounter other candidates, you must be endless.
Gao Ying took out the gun from his body, as well as the spare magazine, and handed it to Zhu Sunling and Yan Yuchu.
In this exam, one of the problems is that the fog obscures the line of sight, and Gao Ying can only see the other party's face when the other party is very close to him, so it is likely that it will be too late to give an order, and at this time he can only use a gun.
"Let's look for a map of the town, or a compass." Gao Ying could see that the road names and various locations of many small towns were involved in the exam paper, and now the southeast, northwest, and northwest were not clear, and he could not fill in the questions about the direction on the exam paper. So, maps and compasses, if they can be found, will be of great benefit.
They got to the second floor of the house and started searching. And when they pushed open the door of a bedroom on the second floor, Gao Ying saw it......
Two decomposing corpses, collapsed on the bed! And in the hands of the corpses, each holding a revolver.
"It's ...... Suicide? ”
When Gao Ying was still stunned, Zhu Sunling had already walked quickly to the corpse, and then quickly took the revolver from the corpse's hand and checked the number of bullets in the magazine.
"It only took one shot......," Zhu Sunling didn't even look at the terrifying-looking rotting corpse on the bed, "I took the gun." ”
Gao Ying immediately walked up and pulled Zhu Sunling to the back!
"Are you crazy? What if these two bodies are ghosts? Gao Ying didn't know if Zhu Sunling was bold or what.
"It's okay...... Zhu Sunling was very calm: "We won't be attacked by ghosts for the time being." ”
I just filled out 2 multiple-choice questions, and indeed, according to the rules of the exam, ghosts don't kill people immediately in such a short interval of time.
Gao Ying also figured this out, but even so......
Gao Ying sighed, but he still pulled Zhu Sunling behind him and said, "I will give you the gun, and you are not allowed to risk this kind of thing again." Don't search this room......"
"Aren't we supposed to be here looking for a map and a compass?"
"That being said......"
"It's time to find these two things as soon as possible, even if it's just one."
Gao Ying looked at the bedroom window, and the fog outside was so thick that he couldn't see anything clearly, and his heart became more and more uneasy. Even if you find a map and a compass, you won't be able to move an inch in this fog.
One of the great difficulties of this exam lies in the difficulty and risk of intelligence gathering. If you want to make all the questions in the exam paper, you must risk your life many times.
It's really a midterm exam.
Zhu Sunling withdrew her hand from Gao Ying's hand and said, "I think it's most important to use the map now to find the map as soon as possible. ”
Gao Ying looked at the corpse on the bed, still feeling uneasy.
This bedroom is too small in size and doesn't have much room to dodge. Once these two corpses turn into ghosts, they will most likely not have time to hide.
"Three minutes...... Leave without finding a compass and a map in three minutes. Gao Ying gave an order to Zhu Sunling: "This is an order. ”
Since it's an order, there's no way around it.
Gao Ying only let Zhu Sunling copy his absolute order, and the first order given to Zhu Sunling was that he could never give an absolute order to Gao Ying himself. However, apart from this, Gao Ying did not impose any restrictions on Zhu Sunling.
He could have ordered Zhu Sunling to "not hurt himself in any way". Especially, when Gao Ying's wanted warrant bounty is so generous. However, Gao Ying did not restrict Zhu Sunling.
In fact, from a rational point of view, Gao Ying's approach is very inappropriate. But Gao Ying found that the real reason why he didn't give this order to Zhu Sunling was that he wanted to make Zhu Sunling an object that he could fully trust. Once she is manipulated with commands, there will no longer be a basis for trust between the two parties. Gao Ying has a hunch that the closer this bloody road gets to the end, the more and more people around him will die, but Zhu Sunling may be able to accompany him all the time.
Three minutes passed quickly. They didn't find the map they hoped they could find.
After walking out of the door, Gao Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Yuchu could see that Gao Ying was still too nervous, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Take it easy, Gao Ying." If you are too nervous, it will affect your thinking. ”
Gao Ying nodded and said, "I...... I got ......."
Speaking of which, he found that Zhu Sunling was much calmer than him. He found that there were countless contradictions in Zhu Sunling's body, obviously a person who was so obsessed with eternal life, she didn't like she had a spare life, but he couldn't see how afraid she was of death.
Was she longing for eternal life out of fear of death? Or is it because eternal life is just her sheer obsession? Or is there some reason you don't know?
At the same time, in another house in this town.
"There's a wine cellar here, it's good......"
Ten white men and women with blond hair and blue eyes were staying in this house. And they are candidates from the United States. Therefore, this is also their homeland. And as Americans, many of them have been exposed to guns. Perhaps for balance, the house they were in only had two revolvers, but the number of guns in this house was unexpectedly large.
A blonde man with glasses was pouring wine into a glass in front of him, but he heard the sound of a bolt pulling behind him, and when he turned around, he saw a red-haired girl fiddling with an AK47 automatic rifle.
"This gun...... Not bad! ”
"Hey, hey, hey! Catherine, don't turn your gun on me! ”
The man with glasses, who was about to drink, was startled and hurriedly dodged.
The girl named Catherine said coldly: "It's the midterm exam, and you still have the heart to drink, so I think it's better to send you to God with a shot." ”
"Alright...... Don't say it......"
It was a dark-haired foreign man sitting on a single sofa in front of him, with a beard on his face.
The man had found the town's atlas from inside the bookcase!
"Maps?"
"Great, it's better to have a map!"
The ten candidates soon gathered around the bearded man and looked at the map in his hand.
"I don't know how many candidates have entered this town in this exam......"
Catherine came up with an AK rifle, stared at the atlas in the bearded man's hand, and said, "Say it beforehand...... Everyone hunts according to their ability, and no one is allowed to snatch each other's prey halfway. ”
When playing games, grabbing people's heads is just virtual data, but here, whoever dares to grab people's heads, it is really a deep hatred.
In Kill Mode, the candidate must be dealt a fatal blow in order to claim the opponent's reward. This is quite clear to everyone. The owners of the house may have been fond of collecting firearms, and they found enough guns to arm all ten of them and enough magazines. Although they are Americans, not everyone has ever been exposed to a gun because of their age, so those who can shoot begin to teach those who can't shoot how to fire gun insurance and how to use a firearm.
The bearded man placed the atlas on the couch and let the other candidates look at it, and he had memorized it all anyway.
He walked over to another table, took out a Colt revolver from his body, removed the bullets from it, and quickly practiced reloading the magazine. In the moment of life and death, if you run out of bullets, the speed of reloading can sometimes become the dividing line between life and death. In this exam, whether it is a ghost or other candidates, they are all the same enemies of life and death!
