Chapter 05: Warden

"It's been a long time to let me look in the mirror, right......" Lin Xiao was speechless, he came to the washbasin again and stared towards the mirror.

But he stood like this for a full thirty seconds, without any unusual reaction.

"No, I've been staring in the mirror before. I didn't see any hints, nor did I trigger any horrors. But now the mystery points to the mirror, which means that my previous actions did not meet the conditions to trigger the plot...... Environment? Angle? Azimuth? ”

Lin Xiao tried to change his position a few angles, and even posed, but unfortunately found nothing.

"It's not 'angle', so it's related to 'environment'?" Lin Xiao touched the bridge of his nose and looked at the bathroom again, which was not too big.

After a few seconds of silence, he reached out without hesitation and turned off the electric light above his head.

If you are an ordinary person, you must hesitate for a while before doing this. After all, he was alone in a small space, and there were "bloodthirsty spirits entrenched" outside the door, and claustrophobic people could not help but scream. It undoubtedly takes a certain amount of courage to let the darkness engulf itself in such a situation.

But Lin Xiao didn't have any pressure on this, he said that if he turned off the lights, he would turn off the lights, and he would pick up and fall with a knife, clean and neat~~ Just kidding, as a man who once slept in a terrifying supernatural hospital on a stormy night, the darkness or something is very familiar.

Isn't it just standing in a dark bathroom and staring at the mirror, what's there? At most, an extremely terrifying picture suddenly pops up, with some kind of poignant sound effect that makes people's scalps tingle, so what? What do you want to scare people to death?

I think I had no strength in the dark floor, and I was chased by some strange creatures everywhere, and I didn't see anything along the way, 'Nurse with Seared Eyes' and 'Dachshund Monster'? The water that comes out of the faucet is a foul-smelling and dirty liquid, so why don't you drink it yourself?

Many things, as soon as you bite your teeth and close your eyes, patience will pass. Patience becomes gold~~

"What could it be......" Lin Xiao muttered as he stood in front of the mirror. Although there was a smear of darkness in front of him, he still kept his eyes open and looked straight in the direction of the mirror.

Five seconds later, sure enough, something special changed.

But I saw that the mobile phone screen suddenly lit up, and the light shone on the mirror, reflecting the faint blue light, and then, a human face appeared in the mirror.

The appearance of this face is exactly the same as Lin Xiao's, but it is obviously not a mirror image, because when Lin Xiao saw this face, he turned his neck a few times and made a few more obvious expressions, but the face in the mirror did not move with him.

The face was mirrored and Lin Xiao looked at each other, and he also showed a strange expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. Ordinary people are in the dark, and seeing this scene must be terrifying. But Lin Xiao just watched silently, waiting for the next change.

After a stalemate of about ten seconds, "Lin Xiao" in the mirror showed a smile and began to speak:

"My name is Lin Xiao."

His voice was exactly the same as Lin Xiao......

"I'm a novelist who is obsessed with grotesque, horror stories."

Every time he said a word, he had to make a short pause.

"I live alone in a big house."

"Day in and day out, absurd stories are written."

"I looked at the sky at sunset, but it was as if I saw a sea of blood in the depths of hell."

"As I stood in front of the window and listened, I could clearly hear the wails of those who were dying."

"Have you ever seen the gutters? The colors inside are different every day. Sometimes it's as red as blood, sometimes it's green as pus, and sometimes it's yellow as bile...... It was actually a river of hell, glowing with terrible neon. ”

"The noise of the factory mixed with the echo of the ground and wafted over the city."

"The stench in the air smells like a giant beast vomiting......"

"I realized that maybe I wasn't living on earth, but in hell."

"Am I crazy?"

After saying this sentence by sentence, the face in the mirror fell silent. He looked at Lin Xiao as if waiting for an answer.

"Haha, hahaha~~" Lin Xiao laughed wildly at the mirror, his facial expression was as crazy as Yagami in a state of madness, but his eyes were as calm and deep as ever, "The elegy of hell echoes in the sky, the scavenging crow has started a new gluttony, death is not the end, and new life is not the beginning, only by sinking into the eternal darkness can we appreciate the true existence." Listen quietly as the blood flows from the veins, my flesh rotting, and my soul suppurating in my filthy shell."

"That's enough." The face in the mirror interrupted.

Lin Xiao snorted, stopped, and said very calmly: "When I was nine years old, I watched "Hell Lullaby", I was too young at that time, and I was really depressed for three days. He paused: "For that memory." I had forgotten about it, but the impression of fear remained. It's a good strategy for you to induce my fear in this way, but it's a pity......"

Lin Xiaonai shook his head: "Now I, under your guidance, can only clearly recall the scenes and lines in that comic, but the feeling of fear can't come up at all." ”

After hearing this, the face in the mirror began to transform, it became a skeleton wearing a cloak and a blue flame burning under its face, its face seemed to be a patchwork of countless pieces, changing every moment, at first glance, it looked like a film in fast forward, making people lost.

"Well, you don't have to say any more." The low, hoarse voice on the phone rang out before: "You have passed the second test." ”

"The second?" Lin Xiao asked, "Is soap the first one?" ”

"That's right." The other person replied, "In my triple test, you have ......"

"Wait, wait......" Lin Xiao interrupted the other party: "I haven't finished asking yet, don't divert the topic." He said in a tough tone, "You have to answer at least one question first - did you want me to 'pick up soap' in the first place?!" ”

Two dark blue flames erupted from the nostrils of the skeleton's face in the mirror, and he replied, "Don't think nonsense, Bichi, don't you see that I'm a skeleton!" ”

"It's hard to say, eggplant, cucumber, corn or something, you can use it with a little processing, and you always have a few bones if it's not good, right?"

Seeing that the skull in the mirror was obviously showing signs of rampage, Lin Xiao wisely changed the subject and asked, "Okay, may I ask who you are?" ”

"Me?" The skull in the mirror let out an eerie laugh, "Of course I'm the warden of Gamma Prison. ”

"Oh, so I'm a prisoner in prison?"

"That's right."

"Triangle Head is a jailer in prison?"

"Hmm."

Lin Xiao let out a sigh with empty eyes, and Sen Sen said: "Then you, the warden, are you a little incompetent, the triangle head is messing around with men and women in prison, this kind of messy social atmosphere, you don't care about it?" ”

"People just have that little hobby, you can't deprive them of their last interest, right? Besides, the emperor doesn't send hungry soldiers, and if he doesn't compensate them, you will pay my salary. ”

"Okay, let's move on to the next topic~~"

"Where is the prison built?"

"No comment."

"That is, you won't disclose relevant sensitive content?"

"Well, in fact, the warden is also a very hard worker, they are all abnormal human beings, they can't be killed, they waste food when they are locked up, and there is no one to talk to on weekdays, so I will be bored."

"Oh." Lin Xiao keenly caught a word and asked, "Where did those prisoners go before?" ”

"Of course, the test is acquittal, but the waste of food is a big problem." The skeleton in the mirror replied, "As for those who did not pass the guò test, they were also released, but a small 'non-invasive operation' was performed on them before they were released."

"Is it?"

"That's right, it's the kind of method you remember, but here it's called 'Give me back my normal punch'."

"You just said you were beaten stupid! And even the cost of surgery is saved. And there is also the "return me normal boxing", based on the stalk of "return my drifting boxing", right? Lin Xiao rolled his eyes.

"An effective way to deal with abnormal humans, prefrontal lobe removal surgery, simple, convenient, and low cost~~"

"Okay," Lin Xiao exhaled with empty eyes, "So how many prisoners can pass the guò test every day?" ”

"There should be one out of ten."

Lin Xiao nodded, the odds of clearing the customs ten to one are very low, but thinking about those messy "abnormal humans", there will be no fuss. Do you think a brainless werewolf can read English?

"Hmm...... All right. Lin Xiao got the answer he wanted, and he was a lot more sure in his heart, and said with a smile: "Now, you can talk about the third test." ”
