In the silent darkness, she slowly opened her eyes.

There was still a sore feeling in the back of his neck, and his head was still heavy. The consciousness is like a thin thread connected to it, and if you take it back very slowly and slowly, you may faint again if you are not careful. The girl breathed slowly in the turbid air, struggling to hold her eyelids to keep herself from falling asleep, quietly, until the moment she was fully awake.

But it still didn't work.

The girl carefully adjusted her posture and tried to move her hands. It didn't work, the knot was clearly made by a professional, and the knot was at an angle that was hard to reach at her wrist, and even she couldn't easily open it. The silk threads that bind the hands are even tougher, and they cannot be untied by brute force, and there are no sharp enough sharp weapons or sharp corners around them.

A dry, hard cloth was stuffed into her mouth, and although it had been moistened with saliva a lot, it was somewhat more pleasant, but the rancid smell on it was even more disgusting. Probably because the corners of her mouth were cut when she was plugged, she could still feel the faint bloody breath on the cloth, but the whole mouth had been numb by the cloth, and even the pain became dull, and she didn't even know where the pain was.

Needless to say, it is impossible to call for help.

Hands and feet were tied, mouth gagged, light blocked, and thrown into a corner with limited mobility. If you want to escape in this situation, I am afraid that you can only hope for a miracle to happen, and the hero suddenly appears.

But the maiden did not believe this.

She endured the pain of friction and stretched her wrist joint, again and again, letting the blood-poor ligaments relax a little and prepare for what was next. The chances may be slim, but until the end, she will never give up.

She heard footsteps walking back and forth beside her, as if she was thinking about something. One step at a time, he is a cunning and cautious person.

Xiang Nanxing held on to the wall and walked cautiously along the corner. The wooden floors in this villa are old and broken, and it looks like it is easy to break a big hole when stepped on, and it is easy to make babbling sounds. At this time, his purpose is to infiltrate, and naturally he wants to try his best to avoid this happening. He walked along the corner, not only to keep him on the right track in this dimly lit environment, but also to ensure that he was stepping on the most solid place and not to die before he could get out of the way.

The layout of this villa is quite chaotic: the kitchen is not far from the entrance, then the living room and an unusually large bedroom, and when you go up to the second floor, you can see several storage rooms of irregular size, which exude a strange atmosphere everywhere. The walls and floors are made of wood, and the smell of damp and moldy wood wafts through the air, like a warning of imminent death.

To say that he was not afraid was false, but thinking back to that decision a few minutes ago, he still did not regret it.

"I changed my mind. I want to participate. ”

When he said this, even if Shen Lingshuang had expected it, it was still difficult to hide the surprise and joy that flashed on his face. "Why did you suddenly change your mind?" She didn't know how to answer for a while, so she tried to pretend that she didn't care, "Haven't you thought that during the time you left, maybe other players have accepted the conditions and started the game?" ”

"Don't say such useless words. If that's the case, you shouldn't be what you were just now. ”

"Huh?" Shen Lingshuang was slightly stunned.

"It's just the wrong posture." Xiang Nanxing put his hand on the side of his face and gestured, "When I saw you, it was obviously in a daze." If there are already players playing the game, the host should at least be on guard near the venue to prevent others from entering the venue to interfere with the game, even if they do not enter the venue to maintain order. But you're just looking at the villa with a wistful look, and I guess you're struggling to find anyone. ”

"Less nonsense."

Shen Lingshuang's face turned red and glared at him fiercely, but he couldn't think of anything to refute for a while. I saw her chest rise and fall, slow down her breathing to calm her emotions, and when she opened her eyes again, her demeanor had returned to clarity.

The quality of the host overwhelmed the emotions of the individual in an instant.

"Yes, it's really not started yet, what is missing is this last character, and it's very close to the time limit. You're right, I was a little distressed just now. She looked at Xiang Nanxing and said seriously, "Although you have said it just now, I still want to confirm with you one last time: you are sure to participate in this 'Spider's Lair' game and are willing to bear all the risks brought by this game, right?" ”

"It's like a wedding ceremony." Xiang Nanxing smiled, "I said, I want to participate." Naturally, I have already considered the risks before this, and if I unfortunately fail, I will naturally bear them. But ......"

He approached Shen Lingshuang and said word by word: "I won't lose." ”

Shen Lingshuang smiled: "You have figured out a lot of things this time." ”

Xiang Nanxing smiled silently, but there was a lot of emotion in his heart. Perhaps the outcome of the game would only prove his choice wrong, but after plunging headlong into the sea water and cooling his boiling thoughts with the cold seawater, he finally chose to listen to his inner voice, regardless of whether it ended well or badly.

Saving people comes with a lot of risk, and saving people can also bring potential dangers to yourself. However, if he is not saved from death, it is no longer a potential danger, but a real thing that will throw him into endless regret and anxiety for the rest of his life.

To put it bluntly, from the moment Shen Lingshuang told the game setting, Xiang Nanxing was destined to be unable to escape from this game. Either die in battle or survive, there can be no third solution with Xiang Nanxing's morality and character.

And he can only choose to use 100% of the state, go all out, and survive without regrets.

Shen Lingshuang saw Xiang Nanxing answer with a smile, his expression was calm, especially his hands were empty, and he had obviously hidden the most important suitcase somewhere, waiting to retrieve it after finishing the game. She thought that being able to take into account the box meant that it was not a decision made on impulse.

In particular, he could have entrusted the suitcase to the host, but he chose to hide it himself, obviously even the host was on guard. Such a cautious personality would be very helpful to win these games, and thinking of this, Shen Lingshuang's heart suddenly settled down a lot - of course, she didn't know that if she had witnessed the scene of the one-eyed old prisoner she knew pretending to be the host, anyone would be a little more cautious about these things, it didn't mean anything.

However, at this moment, she had superfluous and blind confidence in Xiang Nanxing in front of her. Originally, the selfish mind was still hesitant to give some hints, but at this time, the balance in his heart was completely tilted in favor of the justice side of the host's representative.

"Then, time is also pressing, so I can only ask you to enter the villa as soon as possible and start the game. When both you and the trapped escape, you win the game, and I will protect you no matter what happens. However, it should be noted that if only one of you escapes, the game will be considered to continue, in which case I will not protect you - and on the contrary, because according to the rules, the killer must make sure that both of you are under control before he can kill, and in order to avoid the game going on indefinitely, when only one of you escapes and the other is controlled, I will force the escaped person to re-enter the venue. ”

"No hints?"

"There's nothing left to say."

She finished adding the last bit of rule, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed deeply to Xiang Nanxing.

"Come on, I hope you win." "It's my personal wish," she said. ”

Xiang Nanxing smiled and gave her a confident thumbs up. He turned his head to look at the villa, the open door like the jaws of a wild beast, and within it was a whole unknown darkness. Xiang Nanxing took a deep breath, took a step, and rushed in straightforwardly!

"So what a handsome guy was at the time!" He cursed in his heart. Due to the restrictions of his covert actions, he didn't even dare to appeal to this kind of frustration, so he could only hold back and keep roaring in his heart, and he was almost suffocated.

At this time, Xiang Nanxing had already gone up to the third floor, facing a long corridor and several closed doors on both sides. Unlike the first and second floors, these doors were closed tightly, Xiang Nanxing tried to twist the door closest to him, but it was still locked.

Of course, the doors in this villa are also wooden, so it is not too difficult to enter. Although the door lock is metal, and it is completely locked because of rust, even if the original key comes, it may not be able to open, but this door panel is only a thin layer, and after several years of decay, it has already become fragile. Xiang Nanxing estimated that he could kick it out of a hole with a single kick, and it wouldn't be too difficult.

But the problem is that it will undoubtedly make a lot of noise. At that time, I am afraid that the person to be saved has not been found, but the murderous demon in Shen Lingshuang's mouth has been lured out.

"Speaking of which, what about the murderer?"

Xiang Nanxing suddenly thought of this question, and then immediately scolded himself for being sluggish. He should have thought of this a long time ago! Instead of quietly searching in the villa without any goal, he should have put himself in the shoes of other players and think in the shoes of other players, so that he could grasp the development of the whole game.

Liang Jingmo once said something similar to him, but when he encountered this kind of actual combat, he completely forgot about it.

"Since it's a game, the rules are public for every player who participates...... At least partially public. He pondered, "That Shen Lingshuang said that once I enter the game as a rescuer, I will also become one of the targets of the killer, that is to say, the 'killer' at least knows that there is a 'rescuer' character in the game." So instead of how to kill someone, his first task should be to make sure that the trapped people are not rescued by the rescuers, otherwise it will directly be equivalent to losing the game. ”

Of course, he has another option, which is to strike first and kill the trapped people, so that the rescuers will never succeed, and he can start a one-sided chase in the villa. But...... This scenario is unlikely. 'Trapped' may refer to a hostage controlled by a murderer, or a person trapped somewhere by something like a trap, this villa is not too big, if the latter is the case, the time before the rescuer arrives is enough for the killer to find him and kill him, and the game cannot be set up to make people hopeless to win. So killers should also have restrictions, such as...... You can't kill people until the other two meet or get together...... Well, in that case, the trapped should be out of his control. ”

Xiang Nanxing thought about it, and the work in his hands was not idle. He still walked along the base of the wall as usual, but he tentatively pushed in front of each door to see if it could be opened. There are indeed a few unlocked doors here, but they are all study bedrooms or something, but there are no useful clues.

"Of course, the best thing to do is to find the trapped person before the 'rescuer' is in place, and then hide and wait for the rescuer to come to the door to die, but this need to meet the prerequisites, itself has an element of luck, once I really meet me, I can only be vigilant and ready to slip away. Don't think about it yet. Xiang Nanxing thought, "If I am a murderer and haven't found anyone yet, there are two strategies to choose, one is still guarding, but the location is changed to the door, after all, as long as you block it and don't let people out, it is not a failure, but most of this kind of villas have back doors and the like, and you can go up to the second floor and jump out directly, so in the end, you only bet that the other party did not think of this floor." Another strategy is to take the initiative and actively explore, actively looking for rescuers while continuing to search for the trapped people. In this case, it is best to find a place with a wide enough view, preferably a monitoring room or something, in case the equipment is still available, you can control the whole situation in one breath......"

He was thinking as he pushed open the last door on the right side of the hallway. What I saw was a dozen small TV screens lit up on one side and a whole dashboard, which were arranged like the monitoring room of a residential property. A tall, thin black figure stood in the shadows in the corner, unable to see clearly for a moment.

Xiang Nanxing shouted in his heart that it was not good, and he was about to flee as soon as he turned around. But at this moment, a whirlwind of heaven and earth struck, and the floor under his feet suddenly shook like crazy, and the ceiling danced along with it. Xiang Nanxing stumbled, and he involuntarily plunged into it!
