Chapter 19 Cooperation
The moment Zhao Wuwu opened the box, the temperature in the room dropped suddenly.
At the same time, Yang Huer unscrewed the gasoline in the bottle and threw it towards the box. Zhao Wuwu saw that the pale face that originally appeared in the box suddenly disappeared the moment it was poured with gasoline.
The two didn't dare to stay longer, and immediately pushed the house open and ran out.
"Thank you." After making sure that he was safe behind him, Zhao Wuwu gasped and thanked Yang Huer.
If it weren't for the other party's reaction just now, I am afraid that he would have been killed by the ghost.
"Sure enough, it's a retreat prop." Yang Huer looked at the only half bottle of gasoline left in his hand, and his heart palpitated. If this wasn't a real prop, I'm afraid he would have been strangled like Wang Hui just now.
When he saw that Zhao Wuwu was in danger, Yang Huer made this move almost without thinking. Thinking about it now, he felt more fear than glad.
Fortunately, I made the right bet this time.
Half of the gasoline is left, and it must be saved for the last minute.
"Damn, can't you meet anyone else after going around for half a day?!" Yang Huer pounded the wall in annoyance.
Xu Zhen opened the box in front of him in a cold sweat and took out a note from it.
"Huh...... Password clues? He breathed a sigh of relief, and then beckoned Bai Jianying and the others to step forward with some curiosity.
"It looks like that's another way to win." Bai Jianying said.
Although they have not yet come into contact with the people of the first and second districts, the passwords mentioned on the paper obviously have nothing to do with their lives.
"In short, the more clues you can find, the safer it is." Xu Zhen said.
The paper reads this message:
Password 4th Hint: How many people are on the mural in the corridor on the second floor?
Although everyone had the answer in their hearts, out of caution, they decided to go back to the second floor to check out the mural. But when they arrived, they found that the previous mural had disappeared.
"It seems that this mission is a test of everyone's comprehensive ability in all aspects." Xu Zhen said with emotion.
Whether it is IQ, courage, luck, as well as keen intuition, carefulness, memory, etc., if you don't have these conditions, then it is almost impossible to pass this mission assessment.
It's just that the dreambreakers who can survive this mission are naturally not mediocre.
"I know that, and the answer is three." Tang Shiyu said without thinking: "I have deliberately observed that painting for a long time, and I will not be wrong." ”
Tang Shiyu has a good memory, and she said with great certainty: "The picture shows a woman sitting on a swing, holding a boy in her arms. And she also has her eldest daughter Sayaka by her side......" When she said these three words, she couldn't help but shudder: "Although I can't see the faces on the picture clearly, judging from the background, it should have been painted by the male owner shortly after the family moved in." ”
"Indeed, we find quite a lot of sculptures and painting utensils here, and most of the rooms here are also warehouses for painting utensils, so it seems that the man must have been an artist during his lifetime. The hallway was empty, and there were hardly any paintings except for Sayaka's bedroom, which was near the second floor, so I was very impressed by the painting when I passed by. Bai Jianying added: "It's just three people." ”
As they spoke, there was a loud bang in the door.
Xu Zhen and the others were startled, and then took out their weapons from their bodies and aimed them at the door.
The door opened, and a man's face came into view. And after seeing this person clearly, Bai Jianying raised the gun in his hand and aimed it at him: "Don't move, otherwise I will shoot." ”
"Don't ......," the man slowly walked out of the room, holding his head in a panic.
Xu Zhen and Tang Shiyu found that half of his body and face were covered with blood, but it seemed that the blood was not his.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're Wu Tao in District 1, right?" Tang Shiyu said coldly.
"Right...... It's me. Wu Tao held his head and showed them that he didn't have any weapons on his body: "Don't worry, I'm here to ask for help...... I've been abandoned by Shan Hongwei and them. ”
"What do you mean?" Bai Jianying has never had a good face for the people in the first district. He looked at Wu Tao with a cold face, full of suspicion about him in his heart.
"Just before that, Shen Shouzhi and I were attacked." Wu Tao saw that the other party did not do anything to him, and immediately recounted his previous encounter to them.
It turned out that just before Shen Shouzhi was attacked by resentful spirits, Wu Tao had already kept an eye on it, wanting to get rid of Shan Hongwei and his party. He knew that in this mission, Shan Hongwei would definitely use a few of them as unboxing puppets to eliminate danger, once Shen Shouzhi died, then compared with Dong Lin with a first-class mind and Zheng Xuanyi, who was agile, he would obviously become the next puppet.
So, he made a bold and risky move.
Every time Shen Shouzhi opened the box, Wu Tao took the initiative to ask Ying to step forward to help the other party.
Of course, in the eyes of Dong Lin and others, he was just trying his best to please Shan Hongwei, but Wu Tao had his own ideas.
He knew all too well what these people were thinking. Shen Shouzhi is a vicious person, and when his life is threatened, he will not sacrifice himself to save his teammates like people in other districts, but will definitely think of pulling someone to bury him. And his evil thoughts are exactly what Wu Tao urgently needs.
So, he pretended that he couldn't get rid of Shen Shouzhi and successfully deceived Shan Hongwei and others. After the other party left him, he took out the weapon he had prepared in advance from his arms, cut off Shen Shouzhi's arm, and escaped alone.
Hearing this, Xu Zhen couldn't help but look at the mediocre-looking man in front of him in surprise. His idea was undoubtedly very dangerous, and if he was not careful, he would be killed by the resentful spirit along with Shen Shouzhi.
This man is not only courageous, but also well versed in the personality and psychology of his teammates, and even ruthless characters like Dong Lin and Shan Hongwei were deceived by him.
Sure enough, those who can live to this stage are all thousand-year-old foxes.
No, it should be said that compared to people like Dong Lin and Shen Xijing, Wu Tao is more intelligent. He knows how to hide his edge, knows how to pretend to be stupid, judges the situation, and disguises himself as inconspicuous.
"I don't want my destiny to be controlled by anyone else. The partition is not something I can choose, and I can only accept my fate to keep up with people like Shan Hongwei. Wu Tao sighed: "I don't want to wash my name or anything, indeed, in order to survive, I have also done a lot of things that violate my conscience and morality." But that doesn't mean I'm a pawn under his control. ”
It took a lot of effort to successfully get rid of Shan Hongwei and the others, Wu Tao took a deep breath, stepped forward and said to them, "I want to cooperate with you." Your personal vendetta has nothing to do with me, I just want to live. If you are willing to accept me, then as a sign of sincerity, I can tell you the clues to the way of life in the first and second districts. ”
