One step late
"It's such a whimsical new path, I was dazzled when I saw it in the middle of the stairs, and I was shocked." "All in all, you've done a great job," he said. ”
The young man with the hood off his hood had slender eyes and smiled like a fox. He looked up at the three people still standing on the boom, smiled, and raised his hand in a "please" gesture.
This may seem polite, but in fact it is completely provocative. Even if you don't consider the psychological impact of high altitude, the difficulty of walking on the boom alone is far from being comparable to flat ground, although the distance between the two sides and the "escape hut" is about the same, but if they really want to run, Xiang Nanxing and they don't even have a chance at all.
Therefore, the three of them slowed down very tacitly. As the saying goes, villains die by talking too much, and the fox man does not ensure victory at the first time, but boldly taunts, which is of course the confidence of victory, but it also gives them a chance in turn.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiang Nanxing also observed the situation on the other side.
I don't know why, at this time, the people who reappeared on the rooftop have all taken off their hoods. Although the person who came out from behind the fox man did not carry a hood like him, it was not difficult to identify him from his clothes.
One of them has shaggy and messy hair, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, a plaid shirt and jeans, and pairs of matching sneakers and a backpack. Xiang Nanxing was deeply impressed by this dress, and he was even more unforgettable. Because not long ago, he almost died in a whim attempt on the whim of this benevolent brother in his first attempt to rappel.
This is the guy with the "Viper" hood.
The other is dressed as a delinquent teenager, wearing a vest, and the big grimace tattoo on his arm is the most eye-catching symbol on his body. At this time, he took off his hood, revealing the ruthless face underneath, and the temperament of the underworld on his body became more and more obvious, and the whole person looked like a sharp knife, although this aura seemed to be somewhat superficial, and there was still a big gap between Xiang Nanxing and the really strong people he had seen, but for ordinary people, such an experienced gangster was terrifying enough.
This is the person who wore a "mouse" hood before and directly tore off the fake skin on the back of Lu Yixin's neck.
And then there's ......
Without.
"What about the 'Persian cat'?"
Ji Fenghua whispered to himself. However, judging from her solemn expression at this time, she had obviously guessed the answer to this question herself.
Leaving the rooftop were "Fox", "Viper", "Mouse" and "Persian Cat", and according to the rules of this game, only three people can win, and even if they can act together as partners most of the time, sooner or later they will have to eliminate one of them at some point. At this time, it was the first three who appeared on the rooftop, in other words, the "Persian cat" was the one that was eliminated.
"Hey, what did you do with her!" Lang Anbang shouted loudly. There are many ways to make it impossible for a person to keep up, and killing and maiming is undoubtedly the most direct. As a detective, his sensitivity made him smell the crime behind it.
The fox man shrugged his shoulders in response to his question.
"Don't worry, she's still alive and well, it's just that she fainted."
He said as he slowly walked in the direction of the escape hut. The rat man and the viper man walked on his left side, their steps were a little scattered, and their positions changed back and forth, but they seemed to dare not make much movement, which was quite awkward.
"There's something in that hood." Xiang Nanxing said in a low voice, and Lang Anbang next to him nodded knowingly.
"Nine times out of ten, it's guns." The experienced captain of the criminal police looked at the slight bulge on it and added.
The sentence that the fox man answered just now was false, which was not only the conclusion observed by Xiang Nanxing, but also corroborated by the strange scene in front of him. From the moment he appeared in front of them, the fox man's hands had been holding the hood, which was obviously very light and unimportant. If you look closely, you can also notice that he is actually holding the hood with his left hand, and his right hand is simply hidden in the hood. The Viper Man and the Rat Man also seem to be particularly concerned about this hood, and even in the process of walking, they will occasionally glance uncontrollably at that side, and the posture seems to be mostly vigilant.
If it is as Lang Anbang speculated, then this scene can be explained. The fox man held the gun in his right hand, and hid it in the hood so that he didn't want to be discovered here, but the thin hood was not enough to keep out the bullets, and its power was still there, which his teammates knew very well, so they had a lot of scruples.
If you think about it a little deeper, judging from the movements of the rat man and the viper man, maybe they were coerced by the fox man's pistol before this, and hiding the pistol in the hood at this time has another effect, that is, to make it difficult for people outside to see the direction the muzzle is pointing. It may not only point to the front where Xiang Nanxing and the others are, but it may also be aimed at one of the two people here, and because there is no way to understand, it is naturally impossible to escape from this fear.
The question is, where did the pistol come from? Xiang Nanxing had already been searched by the staff before entering the game, taking away communication tools and some gadgets that could be used as lethal weapons, and I think other people should be the same. Although Ji Fenghua brought some messy things, according to her, these were sent to her by the organizer when she entered the game.
In other words, she holds those things entirely because the organizers gave her such rights. This is the "role" she plays in this game.
Although the pistol may have been found from a treasure somewhere in this building, Xiang Nanxing was more inclined to see it as something held by someone else with a similar character to Ji Fenghua. According to the role theory he came up with from his previous analysis, the viper man is a technical talent, and the rat man is a violent guarantee, and it is unlikely that these two people will have another role in addition to such a role. Therefore, the pistol was either the fox man's own, or it belonged to the "Persian cat", who was not present at this time, and the pistol was also snatched after the latter was defeated.
In contrast, Xiang Nanxing prefers the latter. After so many games, he has discovered a pattern, and that is that the organizers will try to give players an almost equal chance of winning, depending on their situation. This often doesn't mean fairness, it's just that each player can play to their own strengths and show off their talents. The fox man showed a very strong wrist in the negotiation before, which is a very big advantage in this game, even more powerful than the violence of the mouse man, and the technology that the viper man can only use in the elevator, for this kind of person, Xiang Nanxing guessed that the organizer should not have a reason to provide him with additional weapons. On the other hand, like the Persian cat, which is not outstanding in all aspects, it is possible to strengthen a pistol.
But in this case, it will go back to the question just now.
While moving forward cautiously, Xiang Nanxing, who was thinking about it, remembered his previous doubts again. As I just said, the players who participated in the game this time are strong and weak, some have relatively strong comprehensive ability, and some are particularly outstanding in individual items. Although some people's individual strengths are not particularly compatible with this game, no matter what, as long as they can fully play their own characteristics, they will theoretically have a chance to win.
Except for one person.
That is the old man who fell from the building at the beginning, the "sloth".
His physical condition is undoubtedly the bottom of the twelve, or the kind that is very far behind others. Although the old man may have some advantages in wisdom and experience, because of the existence of the shortcoming of physical strength, anyone who wants to advance and retreat with him has to think about it.
He obviously saw through this as well, so he went straight to the "Brave Path" at the beginning of the game. This strategy seemed fine at the time. After all, if he wanted to choose the regular route, the old man had no hope in the face of those young people, so he could only take this only shortcut. But after thinking about it, this is actually not in line with the organizers' past practices. The old man did not choose this path, but his conditions, and the environment provided for him by the organizers, made him only consider the "path of the brave" in that situation. After that, he fell down with one foot in the air, and although he appeared terrified during the whole process, he did not even scream during the fall, as if he had completed his mission.
What kind of role does an old man play in this game? Judging from the results, he demonstrated the horrors of the "Road of the Brave" to everyone present, and confirmed the height of the building with his fall. It's not like it's a player, it's more like a supernumerary staff member of this game......
Wait, staff?
Xiang Nanxing stopped his steps in amazement and looked down at his feet. The white smoke was still there, enveloping the area where the old man had fallen from the building, and he still couldn't see the mystery from his angle. But if his prediction was correct, the old man's body was probably no longer there at this time.
That man, maybe earlier than they did......
"What are you doing!"
Lang Anbang behind him shouted in a low voice: "I'm going to rush!" ”
At this point, they have reached the end of the boom, and they can jump down to the rooftop, and then they can run towards the end of the "escape hut". It's just that during the time of their difficult trek, the fox man and the others walked unhurriedly, and the distance to the hut was much closer than them at this time.
"They don't run, not to show calmness, but because the process of climbing the stairs has almost reached the limit of their feet, and they can only hold on to walking at this time." Lang Anbang analyzed, "In comparison, our physical exertion is much smaller, at least we can still run!" So don't skimp on your strength and put all your strength into your feet! But also be careful with the gun in the man's hand. ”
After a few simple sentences, he shouted: "Run!" ”
This sound was like the signal of the starting gun, and the three of them jumped at the same time, jumping from the crane arm to the rooftop, and began the last sprint. On the other side, the fox man and the others quickened their pace and walked briskly towards the escape hut. Lang Anbang's analysis was correct, even at this critical juncture of victory and defeat, he had rested a little when he walked around before, but at this time, the three of them still couldn't run fast, so they could only barely speed up the speed of dragging their feet to make the pace bigger.
It looks funny, but it's a desperate effort for them.
One side gritted its teeth and sprinted with all its might, while the other side had to hold on to the advantage and end it all before it was overtaken.
The winner or defeat is still unknown!
