Chapter 13: Overture

When Hang Yi and the others came to the dining car, most of them had already finished eating. During this journey within China, each passenger will be provided with two free meals at noon and in the evening. Lunch was simple: a plate of stir-fried 'meat' with bell peppers, a plate of vinegared cabbage and a bowl of white rice.

The group sat down to eat. Han Feng put down his chopsticks after a few bites and said, "We really have to be subject to this hateful 'woman'? ”

"Do you have any great ideas?" Sun Yuchen asked.

"Let's throw her off the train together!" Han Feng said.

"No way, we're within her power and can't do anything bad for her." Hang Yi said, "Our disadvantage is that we were the first to be attacked by her, and now we can only follow the rules of the game she set." ”

"Damn! It's so aggrieved, we eight superpowers, we can't do anything about one person! ”

Lu Hua said, "Han Feng, if you had experienced the incident in another space with us, you wouldn't be so resentful. At that time, more than a dozen of us were trapped in another dimension, almost all of us were wiped out, and we were only attacked by a superpower. Don't you see it yet? The key to winning this competition, in addition to the strength of personal ability, is more important to grasp the initiative. The first to strike always has the upper hand. We have already been recruited, and we can only be forced to accept it, and there is no other choice. ”

Han Feng exhaled a breath of turbidity: "Okay, then what do you say to do now?" This 'woman' said that in seven days, there would be seven deaths in totalβ€”couldn't it be seven of us? ”

Hang Yi thought for a while and said: "I don't think it's possible, if her ability can do this, she can hide on the train in disguise and wait for us to die one by one, why bother facing us and telling us all about her superpowers and ways to win?" ”

Sun Yuchen said: "That's right, I think so too. Therefore, there is only one possible 'sex' - 'law' If you want to kill someone, you must conform to a certain law. It is impossible for her to designate whoever dies will die. ”

"But no one has died yet, how can we ......"

Before Mi Xiaolu finished speaking, they suddenly heard a 'commotion' from the carriage in front of them. Their nerves tensed, and they hurried towards the carriage where the accident had occurred.

When Hang Yi and the others arrived, they saw people gathered in front of one of the sleepers, and the upper bunk was a young European and American man, his eyes were open, his head drooped to the side, motionless, obviously dead. The train attendant asked a Chinese man sleeping in his lower berth.

"When did you find out he's dead?" The flight attendant asked.

The Chinese man said in a bit of a panic: "He was fine when he first got in the car, greeted me in a friendly way, and told me in English that he was a backpacker traveling alone, a Romanian, who had been playing in China for more than half a month and was heading to Moscow. Then he said he wanted to sleep for a while, so he lay down. When it was time to eat, I went to the dining car to finish my meal and wanted to remind him not to miss lunch, so I shook him...... It turned out that he was out of gas. ”

The flight attendant examined the body of the deceased and found no external injuries. He said to the onlookers, "Is there any passenger who is a doctor?" ”

A bespectacled Chinese man in his forties said, "I am. ”

The flight attendant said, "Could you please check it for me?" Confirm if he is really dead. ”

The doctor walked up to the deceased, checked his pupils, pulse and heartbeat, and said to the flight attendant: "He is indeed dead." And judging by the stiffness of the body, it died about an hour ago. ”

Lu Hua raised his hand and looked at his watch, the current time is 12:35 noon.

"Do you know the cause of death?" The flight attendant asked.

"He didn't have any external injuries and probably died suddenly from acute 'sexual' heart failure," the doctor said. ”

The conductor nodded and said to the passengers, "It's unfortunate that something like this happened on the train. I had to temporarily carry the body to the luggage car, and when the train arrived at Erlian Station, the local police and hospital would handle it. Would you like to ask for a hand? ”

"I'll do it." Ji Kairui walked over and carried the body to the luggage cart with the flight attendant. The flight attendant thanked him and asked all the passengers to return to their cars.

Lei Ao whispered to his companions: "The conductor and the conductor don't know yet, this is just a prelude. ”

"I don't know that the train won't stop until it reaches Moscow." Sun Yuchen said.

"When they and the passengers in the car find out that the situation is getting worse and worse, they don't know what will happen. ”

"Panic and chaos are inevitable," Hang Yi said, "and we can only hope that the law of death will be discovered as soon as possible." ”

Lu Hua shook his head and sighed: "The so-called 'law' must look for its similarity 'nature' in more than a few things, and it is impossible to find the law based on a single event. Now that only one person has died, it is impossible for us to find anything at all. ”

"Whether it works or not, I'm going to beat up that damn 'woman'!" Han Feng walked angrily towards the No. 9 carriage.

However, when they came to Dong Manni, Han Feng couldn't make a move, because Dong Manni was playing chess with the little boy. The boy's mother sat and watched the chess, enjoying themselves.

It seems that the people in this carriage did not know what happened in carriage 2 - except for the initiator. Because Dong Manni glanced up at them, and even 'revealed' a provocative smile, which means: The show has begun.

Considering the little boy's feelings, Han Feng sat down reluctantly and looked out the window angrily.

Moments later, a flight attendant pushes a trolley back and forth between the carriages, asking passengers if they need mineral water, fruit and snacks. The little boy saw the cow's milk candy on the cart and asked his mother to buy it for him, but his mother said, "No, you are changing your teeth, and the doctor said you can't eat candy." ”

The boy pouted dissatisfied. Dong Manni smiled and said to him: "If you eat too much sugar, you will get tooth decay, listen to your mother." ”

In comparison, the boy seemed to listen more to the words of the beautiful big sister, and he nodded sensibly and continued to play chess.

This scene made Hang Yi sleepy and 'confused', he didn't know if Dong Manni deliberately pretended to be close to this boy, or if she really liked children? Or...... Does the "rule" she made have something to do with the boy?

Hang Yi observed their chess game, it was just an ordinary game of chess, and there was nothing special about it. Dong Manni didn't know if she deliberately let the boy, and she actually lost to him in this set.

"Xiao Yuan is so powerful, my sister lost." Dong Manni said with a smile.

Xiao Yuan estimated that it was the boy's nickname, and he was not conceited, saying, "My sister let me, I know." You deliberately let me eat a 'car' in the first place. ”

"No, I really didn't pay attention to it before I was eaten."

This conversation attracted Hang Yi's attention, and he turned his head to glance at Lu Hua, and found that he was also staring at them intently, thoughtfully.

In the afternoon, when Dong Manni went to the bathroom, Lu Hua quietly walked up to the boy and asked, "Xiao Yuan, when did you play chess with that big sister?" ”

"It's just after lunch, after 12 o'clock. What's wrong? ”

"Nothing, I'll just ask." Lu Hua smiled at the boy's mother, and asked Xiao Yuan again, "What about the question that sister gave you?" Did you make it? ”

"No, my sister said she wasn't in a hurry, and told me to do it slowly."

"She's the one who asked you to play chess, right?"

"yes."

Lu Hua nodded, 'touched' the boy's head, and returned to his seat. The boy's mother looked at him suspiciously.

Hang Yi quietly asked Lu Hua, "Did you find anything?" ”

Lu Hua shook his head slightly: "It's just that I don't let go of any doubts." It is impossible to draw any conclusions now. He sighed, "I really don't want to say thatβ€”I'm afraid I'll have to wait for the next dead person to show up." ”
