Chapter 45: Another Way to Live
"Why does the fat man appear in the form of a ghost? Haven't they already been killed by ghosts? Or do you say that anyone who is killed by a ghost becomes a ghost? Speaking of this, Jiang Liu's face was a little ugly.
"I can't answer the first two questions, but the last one I can tell you very accurately that you think too much! If everyone killed by ghosts becomes ghosts, then the world is already full of ghosts! Li Lin patted Jiang Liu's shoulder and took a breath: "I think our problem now is not to dwell on these, but to quickly find another way to survive!" ”
As he spoke, he pointed to room 104, which closed the door: "We don't know when the ghost will come out, so we can't waste time, the most important thing now is to find a way to survive and end this supernatural event quickly!" ”
[Why did he give me such an important matter? How can an old man say that the role he plays at such a time is much more useful than that of me, a newcomer... Forget it, he's right, we don't know when the ghost will act, the main thing at the moment is to find a way out! But the last way of life, we used the death of 2 people to speculate, how could we find another way of life so quickly! 】
[Survival! Sheng! Sheng! ..... That's right! Since we started this hotel, we have been looking for something weird, in addition to the mirror, there is another thing that has always appeared in our sight, whether it is getting up in the morning, or eating, or sleeping at night, that thing keeps appearing in our sight all the time! 】
Thinking of this, Jiang Liu moved his gaze to the seemingly ordinary, but full of weirdness.
Clock! Black Clock!
This clock keeps appearing in everyone's sight as soon as everyone enters the hotel.
It can be said that at the beginning, Jiang Liu also suspected this thing that looked very obvious and abrupt, but as the next few days passed, he found that this black clock that looked very weird, except for the location and style, there was nothing strange at all in other aspects, just like an ordinary clock, plus the continuous appearance in the next few days, Jiang Liu had already taken it as a habit and would not pay attention to it at all!
Even in the mirror at the time, he only took the clock that stopped moving as a reminder, and didn't even think about whether it would be a way to live!
And now, when the only way to survive was destroyed by the white-collar man himself, and everyone fell into despair, Jiang Liu remembered this thing that had long been regarded as a habit by everyone.
Li Lin noticed the abnormality of the river flow at this time, and when he looked at it, the large black clock appeared in his eyes.
Confused, surprised, confused, amazed! In just a few seconds, Li Lin's face kept showing these four expressions.
Puzzled, it was that he didn't understand why Jiang Liu was looking at the large black clock; Surprised, he thought of it with Jiang Liu, and also found that this black clock may represent another way of life!; Confused, he couldn't think of what the black clock was prompting; As for the amazement, it was that he admired the swift thinking of the river.
When he, an old man, felt that there was little hope, Jiang Liu was not affected by this desperate atmosphere, and he could quickly find a hint of another way out! Demons! At this time, Li Lin's latest evaluation of Jiang Liu, and he also believes that in the future, Jiang Liu can definitely be called the group of people at the top of the pyramid, and can go further than others and understand the true face of this world better!
"What do you think of?" Li Lin looked back at Jiang Liu, hoping to get some useful clues from him.
"Just as you think!" Looking at the black clock, Jiang Liu remembered the scene where Fa Fu Nan killed the white-collar man just now, and he always felt that the incident was prompting him of something. The first few terrifying experiences made him understand that everything that seemed to go unnoticed was an important clue to speculate about the whole thing.
A clock that stops walking, a time that stands still, a room in the mirror that is ignored. These three places that are not easily noticed, but they are all important tips for finding out how to survive in the first place.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Jiang Liuyou fell into deep thought, Xu Qian was a little anxious, after all, time waits for no one, the ghost doesn't know when it will come out, and the two boys don't speak, she feels that death may come to everyone at any time.
"I'm thinking, why did the ghost pretend to be King Liu and kill Jin Wanquan just now, it seems a little redundant, and Li Jing's body also appeared in Jin Wanquan's arms." Jiang Liu voiced his suspicions.
"It's not that you shouldn't think about these superfluous things first..."Xu Qian's words were interrupted by Li Lin before he finished speaking, and he looked at Jiang Liu's eyes and asked seriously.
"You mean the corpse in Jin Wanquan's arms just now is Li Jing?"
"Yes!" Jiang Liu nodded affirmatively and said: "Judging from the style of the clothes, they are Li Jing's clothes, so I wonder why the ghost did this extra thing, not only dressed up as King Liu, but also put Li Jing's body in Jin Wanquan's arms." ”
"Wait a minute! If you're not mistaken, then the three people who died earlier, plus the four of us, all seven people appeared! At this time, Li Lin was like being opened up in the novel, and his thinking was like a dam bursting, and the water poured out.
"As I said before, it can't do superfluous things, and what seems superfluous is actually a hint! Since it brings the seven of us together again when the dead end is triggered, it means that another way of life is on the seven of us! But the seven of us are out of my acquaintance with Xu Qian, and the five of you are meeting for the first time....."
"No, you're thinking the wrong way!" Jiang Liu refuted Li Lin's speculation and said his thoughts: "The way of life should not be on the seven of us, I think the hint should appear after we enter the hotel, that is to say, it is the same thing that the seven of us have in common after staying in the hotel!" ”
"Clock!" Li Lin and Jiang Liu looked at each other and said at the same time!
"That's right! Yes, each of us has a very similar room layout, but to be precise, as long as the clock and the mirror are exactly the same position, and then it goes around again! We already knew in advance that the clock was the next hint of life, and this discovery is of no use to us now! Li Lin was a little anxious, and he felt that the inference of the incident had fallen into an endless loop.
"No, I think that's another hint!" Jiang Liu's eyes showed a confident look, and he pointed to the black clock in the hotel lobby and said, "Didn't you notice that the position of the clock in our room is a little different from the position of the clock in the hall?" We can't touch the clock in the hall at all! But the height of the clock in the room can be reached as long as we find a chair to stand on it! ”
"Let's go, go back to the room!" Li Lin was very decisive, and after agreeing with Jiang Liu's speculation, he directly beckoned everyone back to the room.
Time was slowly passing, and the door to room 104 was slowly opening.
