Time seems to have stopped. Only the blood dripped down little by little, like a countdown to the end.

Xiang Nanxing's exclamation and the old one-eyed counterattack occurred almost at the same moment. Just as Xiang Nanxing shouted and rushed towards him, the old one-eyed left hand suddenly clenched the blade on his chest, turned his body to the right with all his strength, and his raised right elbow hit the attacker in the chest before he had time to retreat.

The assailant leaned back and grunted, but his hand gripped the hilt of his sword. He gritted his teeth and threw the knife back from the wound. The old one-eyed snorted and leaned against the wall, and this struggle also made the attacker stagger back a few steps and fall on the wall, he who was originally hidden behind the old one-eyed showed half of his body, and that face also entered Xiang Nanxing's sight.

And this person turned out to be ......

"Lorraine!"

Xiang Nanxing shouted out his name in a lost voice, and his mind went blank for a moment. Obviously, he was only one step away from the door, but he was stunned, and this step was also a beat slower.

And this small step completely separated him from the old one-eyed. There was a "bang", and the door slammed shut. At the last moment, Xiang Nanxing only saw the old one-eyed trying his best to reach out and close the door, and then raised the fire axe in his hand and smashed it down!

"Boom!"

There was a crisp sound, but it was knocked on the lock. Xiang Nanxing's heart sank, and he grabbed the handle and turned it, but the door seemed to be welded, and it didn't move at all. He remembered what Old One-Eye had said after he had failed to smash the door a few minutes earlier. If it is damaged by an external force, the door lock on this side will automatically lock, so that no one can open it.

And this man, although he confirmed his suspicions, was locked out of the room, alone in front of a former teammate with malicious intentions.

"Old one-eyed!" Xiang Nanxing slammed the door hard and shouted, "You're stupid!" ”

Through the door, he heard the old one-eyed response.

"Don't make a fuss."

The voice sounded weaker than ever. A sudden stab pierced his flank, and he lost too much blood. The elbow and the axe had actually exhausted all his remaining strength.

"This is my ...... The cost of believing the wrong person. ”

Old One-Eye leaned weakly against the door panel and slowly sat down on the ground. In front of him, Lorraine, who had recovered his breath, stood in front of him with a knife.

"Brother Yan, your reaction is a bit unexpected to me. Even if you see me on the way around, you don't have the slightest intention of stopping it. He slowly raised his hand and studied the blood on the tip of the knife, "It looks like ...... You already know what I've done. ”

Old One-Eye barely managed to squeeze out a sneer.

"Seeing these things hanging on your body, the stupid person can't react." He tried to prop up half of his body and make himself sit more upright, "Ah Xing just showed me the oxygen mask in the room, there is only one in each room, where did your other one come from?" ”

"Hey, all the people hanging on my waist have been seen, my eyesight is so good, I deserve to be a thief."

Lorraine smiled indifferently and simply lifted the hem of her clothes. Two identical oxygen masks were hanging there, one of them with a dark red mark on the outer wall, and what appeared to be a few drops of blood. However, compared to the spurting blood stains on his body, these points were not even stains.

Old One-Eye sighed.

"When I thought about this layer just now, I was still secretly laughing at myself for being too suspicious, everyone has to doubt it, but I didn't expect it to be like this." He said, "This oxygen mask is an important item for clearing the level, but there is only one for each person." The extra one you have was originally from Ma You. ”

Lorraine looked at him with a smirk, not denying it. Xiang Nanxing, who was on the other side of the door panel, couldn't see his expression, he could only hear the conversation, and he was puzzled. "Where's the horse?" He shouted, "Old One-Eye, be careful! ”

"Silly boy...... Ay! ”

The old one-eyed laughed twice, but it seemed to affect the wound, and the pain made him grin for a while. "Ma You's dead! Don't you understand, silly boy! He almost yelled, as if he was about to exhale the stuffiness in his chest, "When he tried to open the door just now, Lorraine had already unlocked the secret of the room number, and then also found the small mechanism on the doorknob, and even knew that the two rows of rooms in the corridor were hinting at the layout of the room after the fork in the road. He was always able to take us to our room and continue the game, but he didn't say anything! ”

Old One-Eye gasped, and his tone had to be calmed down.

"Remember, we checked our personal information before the operation, and it contained our own birthdays and blood types and stuff. Of the four of us, you are the only one who has a birthday in the first half of the year, so it stands to reason that you should go to the left alone, and the three of us to the right. But Lorraine only let Ma You go with him, and let me go with you on the other side. This is because he has to act alone with Ma You, so he can be sure that he will be killed! ”

Behind the door panel, Xiang Nanxing opened his mouth wide, but he couldn't say anything. As Old One-Eye described, a picture gradually took shape in his mind. It was as if he had seen what had happened in the hallway on the other side ten minutes earlier.

Under the deliberate guidance of Lorraine, although he couldn't see through the mystery of the number in a hurry, Ma You was "lucky" to find his own room. He pushed the door open and walked in, Lorraine following closely behind. Almost simultaneously, the two men discovered the oxygen mask on the bedside table, as well as the note that lay next to the mask.

Then, when he saw the last line on the note, Ma You's heart suddenly sank and he hurriedly turned around. However, his reaction was still half a beat late, and at this time, Lorraine raised the knife in his hand high and stabbed at Ma You.

Blood splattered, splashing his chest, and a few more points floated onto the oxygen mask at the head of the bed, like falling cherry blossoms.

"You killed Ma You......" Xiang Nanxing couldn't believe what he had guessed, but the knife that Lorraine stabbed at the old one-eyed clearly showed that he was indeed the kind of person who would do such a thing.

"No, it can't be! Lorraine! Xiang Nanxing shouted. Aren't you the one who values your companions the most! You're even risking your life to save me, why would you do such a thing! ”

"Stupid question."

Old One-Eye shook his head: "As long as you can live, aren't companions just tools to be discarded." Ah Xing, I didn't see it, but I guess the hint you just wanted to tell me must have a reason why he had to kill Ma You. Or if you connect with the three of a kind in the lobby, you will have to kill your teammates to clear the level. ”

He looked up and sighed: "The host...... I could see that he seemed to be looking forward to something, that he was waiting to see the cannibalism. ”

As soon as the old one-eyed reminded Xiang Nanxing, he endured his grief and quickly went through the seven rules again in his heart.

First, every door here is completely enclosed. This is a must-have design for poison gas.

The second is about how to find your room.

The third is to tell the player that between 0:00 and 4:00, staying outside the room is certain to death.

Fourth, even in the room, it is not absolutely safe, because at "a certain moment", poisonous gas will be released in the room, and the poisonous gas will last longer than the limit of human breath-holding.

The fifth and sixth rules tell the player that the restroom may be safe, but this requires a gamble.

Seventh, to provide the safest source of oxygen, but only for one hour......

"One hour!" Xiang Nanxing shouted in a lost voice, "There should be oxygen masks in every room, but one can only last for one hour!" ”

"That's right." Old One-Eye sneered, "Collect all four, and you will be able to stay until you clear the customs without any risk." ”

"Since that's the case, I won't talk nonsense."

Lorraine had no intention of justifying. He ignored the old one-eyed man who had collapsed to the ground like a half-dead man, walked straight to the door and knocked twice: "Xiang Nanxing, if you want to be a person who values your companions, open the door." All I want is your oxygen mask, but there's no reason to kill you, as long as you hand over that, I can let this old guy live, and you can go into the bathroom and gamble. ”

The old one-eyed panted and laughed: "Don't be stupid, I completely destroyed this door, and now it's locked." ”

They felt the door shake violently twice, followed by two loud thuds, as if someone had kicked the door twice from the opposite side. However, just as Old One-Eye had declared, the door was locked, and the broken lock did not move.

"Hello, Lorraine, you traitor!" Xiang Nanxing's irrepressible angry voice came from inside, "If this door can't be opened, I will definitely make your death very painful!" Now, get out of the way of old One-Eye! ”

"You're trying to threaten me? Command me? Ha. ”

Lorraine replied lightly, glaring at the old fellow with a knife-like gaze. It's all his fault, if he hadn't broken the door with this fish, he would have been able to ensure that the four masks were safely cleared at this time.

But even if it's only three, that's a three-in-four chance, plus the X-factor of the restroom...... Calculating, it is also barely acceptable.

Lorraine clenched the knife tightly, bent down and slowly approached the old one-eyed. The latter lost too much blood, his consciousness began to blur, and he didn't even have the strength to move at this time. But even so, he knew what Lorraine was going to do next.

Oh, I knew I should have saved some strength and ruined my fingers.

The old one-eyed thought hatefully, feeling a trace of coldness against the middle of his palm. It was cold and sharp, but then it was scorching, and the pain came to his brain a beat late, and his palm was broken, and he knew it well.

Lao Duyan's eyes widened, and he bit his lip to prevent himself from making even the slightest hint of weakness. Thanks to blood loss. He thought. The massive loss of blood dulled his senses, and even the functioning of his brain became strange. The insane pain that was supposed to be ten fingers connected to the heart seemed to be less terrible at this time.

His youth, decades of prison life, flashed in front of him like a marquee. In this place, the old one-eyed is a loser, and he has never felt any warmth from others, if he has to say it, it is the leading brother back then, and the little brother behind him who is willing to listen to his complaints.

Anyway, I hope he lives.

At this moment of near death, the last bit of clarity in the old one-eyed brain was spent thinking about the situation in front of him. If there is one last obsession, he hopes that little brother Xiang can live, and Lorraine will die here.

But Lorraine killed Ma You, took away his finger, and took all three masks except Xiang Nanxing. Although he didn't know when the poison gas would be released, he had already ensured his safety for three hours, and no matter how he looked at it, he had a better chance of surviving than Xiang Nanxing, who only had one hour of oxygen.

If she could find a way to determine if the gas was released while wearing the mask, then Lorraine would have at least taken a chance of hiding in the bathroom if she didn't guess the 3 out of 4 chances. It's just that at this point, the two sides are equal.

But the poison gas in the bathroom ...... Is it really luck?

The old one-eyed suddenly had a flash of inspiration. A second before he lost consciousness, he finally realized the scariest thing about this game. He turned his head hard and opened his mouth wide against the door panel, wanting to tell Xiang Nanxing that there was a Pandora's box in this game that must not be opened.

It's not about luck, this game has the "right solution"! He must also be told this anyway.

However, he could only let out one last hissing sound from the depths of his throat.

The old one-eyed eye was wide open, and he couldn't say a word.
