Chapter 3, Sin
In this dark and damp environment, any unusual movement will cause people to panic, and the yellow light overhead, which is not bright, flickered a few times like in a ghost movie, and the light on everyone's face changed color.
"Welcome to your final execution ground, everyone is born unequal, do you know what I think?" The clown looked up through the screen and looked at the few people gathered in front of the TV giggling.
"You don't value your life so much, and even trample on his life at will, but I have decided to give you a chance to mend your ways. Let's play a game where those who pass can live and be reborn on the cross like Jesus. As soon as the voice fell, the boy named Angel Jessie, who had been a little hysterical before, suddenly ran to the TV and yelled at him: "I haven't done anything hurtful at all, why did you arrest me?" You say I'm guilty, so tell me what I've done......" Angel shouted into the air with open hands, Black Thirteen narrowed his eyes as he watched.
The fact that he did not trust himself enough in his heart meant that he was using this behavior to increase the credibility of his words, so he ...... The fifth floor may be telling a lie. As if to confirm Black Thirteen's thoughts, 'Joker' suddenly interjected while Angel was still performing.
"Thirteen years ago, your friend was in a car accident that left him disabled for life, and everybody thought it was an accident. But only you know that it was your prank that pushed your friend down the road from behind that led to this tragedy. Even seeing a friend lying in the hospital who has become vegetative because of brain damage and breathe a sigh of relief without reflection, this is one of your sins. "The clown giggles, but everyone gets nervous if 'it' is true...
"No, it's lying! I've never done anything like that at all! You're slandering! Before he could defend himself, the clown continued: "Five years ago, you stole all the cash of a homeless man on the street because you wanted to buy the toy you wanted, and you were sixteen years old. At the same time, late that year, you stuck a thumbtack in a child's ice cream, which ended up bleeding from the throat, and three years ago, you threw a stray dog off the flyover, clucking, do you want me to go on? Ah, I've met quite a few people, and it seems like your whole life was born for the word sin. "A pair of red eyes under the clown mask are particularly terrifying.
"You...... Lie! Angel raised a kick in front of everyone and kicked at the TV that was talking, and then panted at his friend, looking very vulnerable, and then watched his friend surround him, Black Thirteen squinted his eyes and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"This person has a strong tendency to be violent and cannot control his emotions." LJ seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was talking to Black Thirteen and Anne beside him.
"Gain sympathy by showing weakness, what the clown said in front of me should be true." Anne also nodded and whispered.
"It's not a good thing to talk about other people behind our backs, and besides, several of us have similar 'sins'." Black Thirteen looked at the two of them silently, his expression was startled at the same time, and then silently withdrew his gaze, the two of them should have thought of something.
"But...... But, right. In such a dangerous place, we better work together! That will at least increase our chances of escaping! LJ said intermittently, and then Black Thirteen watched him stand up and tear at the seal on the cardboard box next to him, his expression a little evasive.
"Agreed, I'm Anne, from L City, what do you call me?" Anne and LJ quickly chatted and seemed to have reached a consensus.
"I'm LJ, I'm from Y City, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to escape!" LJ and Anne shook hands, and then a large hand was placed on top of both of them. The two men were so frightened that they turned back at the same time.
"King of Spades, S City, just do what you say, let's work together......." Black Thirteen blinked, did he escape? Looking at the smashed TV on the ground, Black Thirteen thought to himself.
I don't know what to do next, so I fixed my team first, which is probably the way of human beings who are accustomed to social survival, but such a team trust is usually weak, and no one knows who will betray whom first after encountering danger, but ...... As LJ said, teaming up can at least increase the success rate of escaping, although it is not necessarily everyone who can escape.
I don't know where around, and there is a harsh sound due to electromagnetic interference.
"Top right." Black Thirteen found the megaphone hidden in the corner at a glance, and if you follow the line, you might be able to find the location of that person? But the line seems to be coming from the inside of the wall? The two of them looked at the corner at the same time, and indeed saw a black thing, but they couldn't find it if they didn't get close in the light.
"It's the cameras and loudspeakers, we're being watched now!" Anne gritted the nail of her thumb with her teeth and frowned.
"Expected, isn't it? I guess the next step is to release the task. "Black Thirteen remembers the plot of the SAW series. If memory serves, the offender is a weak old man with cancer, the only difference is that our group of people are not completely restricted in their freedom, and the original book does not leave us with any loopholes, this is probably the chance.
There was a loud screeching sound in the stereo. "Hiss~~ Giggles, are you so afraid of being known the truth so you want to destroy the evidence? It doesn't matter, but it's troublesome for everyone to break the rules of the game like you, and as punishment you have to have one of you die! After the clown's tone was finished, everyone sighed.
"It's coming! According to the original book, he disdains to kill people with violence, but uses the so-called 'redemption' and 'repentance' to make people die in a desperate situation, that is, as long as he sees through his trap in advance, then everyone can stay away from death for a long time. We've got to find that way! LJ clenched his fists and said with some excitement.
"There are a total of eight small iron balls in the room, but just now I secretly took out one, that is, seven iron balls correspond to seven people, and those who don't find the iron balls will die here, so - the game begins, giggle ~ Zizi ~~~" There was an unknown electric sound in the stereo and then the people inside also stopped talking.
For a moment, all eight people in the room fell silent, each standing still, staring at each other. And the five of them finally realized that in addition to the five of them, there were three more people here......
An Jessie's eyes widened as she looked at the three people on Black Thirteen's side.
The man just said that there were only 7 iron balls in it...... That is, there is one person who will definitely not be able to get it! Angel jessy jerked to the side of the cardboard box and began to rummage through the small iron ball that he didn't know existed.
