The sound of rustling around him woke Xinghe, and he skillfully pulled out a small dagger from under the bed, opened the mattress, made a horizontal line on the wooden bed, and then tucked the dagger under the bed board and hid it, and restored the bed to its original state.

In this place where the light of day is not visible, he can only use this primitive method to calculate the number of days, and the twenty-six scratches on the bed board represent half a month of time he has spent here.

After folding the quilt, he took out a small jar from under the pillow, carefully turned his head, and opened the jar, but he was still choked by the unpleasant smell of the jar, he gritted his teeth, took a piece out of it with his hand, and wiped it on his right leg.

This is his own medicine according to the prescription in a medical book in the warehouse, I don't know what went wrong, the smell of the ointment is very smelly, but the effect is okay, his leg injury has been healed by seven or eight points now.

Because the smell of the ointment was so bad, no one slept in the few bunks around Xinghe, and in more than twenty days, the number of children had been reduced to about three hundred, and there were enough empty bunks in the dormitory. And Xinghe is also happy to do this, he is the only one who has survived the confrontation with Lloyd so far, so Lloyd "takes care of him and has a family" in many things, and these children are not stupid, so they can naturally see it, so they are very wise to keep their distance from the three of Xinghe.

After taking the medicine, Xinghe and Anton who also got up were reunited, because the taste of the ointment was really bad, so Anton had to sleep in a bunk a little farther away from Xinghe, and the two followed the army to the bathroom at the end of the corridor to wash their faces with cold water and sober their minds.

Lan Yue got up a little earlier than them, and by the time the two of them came out of the bathroom, she was already waiting at the door, "How's your arm?" Xinghe walked up and asked, her right hand was dislocated in yesterday's competition.

Lan Yue moved his right hand, indicating that it was completely fine, Xinghe nodded, after living here for three or four days, he found this abnormal situation, all the children have become particularly durable, whether it is the wound of the skin and flesh that was whipped by Lloyd or the blue and red handover in the night competition, by the next morning, it was basically okay, it was Xinghe, the leg bones were broken, but it was almost good in more than 20 days, combined with his own observations, Xinghe found that the children who died so far were all injured enough to be fatal at one time。

Xinghe gave the credit for this to Lloyd and Sheng, although he didn't know how they did it, but it must have been something they did, about this matter, Xinghe didn't have the idea of delving, the only thing he cared about was how to escape from this place.

Xinghe has never given up the idea of escaping from this place, since there is a way in, then naturally there must be a way out, every day after dinner there is a certain amount of free time, at this time Lloyd will leave for a while, the children can do whatever they want, he will not care.

Xinghe used this time to explore all the places he could, except for the third floor, he searched all the places he could find, but he couldn't find a way to go upstairs, and the other place he hadn't explored so far was the stone door in the hall, and Xinghe thought that the entrance and exit of this place was in one of these two places.

The stone door in the hall, Xinghe had secretly pushed it, but it didn't open it, the stone door seemed to be just a relief carved on the wall, and it couldn't really be opened, but that night Sheng had stopped him from pushing the door, this is a world full of magic, and you must not look at that door from the perspective of an ordinary stone door, just like the stories Xinghe once heard, this kind of door must be opened in a special way, which also means that he can't open the door in a short time.

Another suspicious place is the third floor, the stairs on the third floor are probably hidden in a secret passage, just like the secret passage of Ye Zhiqiu's house, but that is not a problem, Xinghe has seen ropes and hooks in the warehouse, and it is theoretically feasible to make a claw hook to climb up from the grandstand on the third floor, but Xinghe has not tried it until now, on the one hand, because he can't find the right time, and on the other hand, because he once glimpsed the saint appearing on the third floor, thinking of what the saint can do, Xinghe doesn't think it is a wise decision to rush up to the third floor。

The trio followed the crowd to the hall, where a number of children had already gathered.

In the crowd, Kayla waved at them, and the three of them walked over to her, and Galaxy felt good about the girl who had been locked up in the same cell with him, and she was one of the few children who was willing to befriend them after learning about Lloyd's attitude.

After a period of contact, Xinghe also knew some things about her, Kayla's family lives in the thirteenth ring and fifth district of the capital, her parents are ordinary workers in a magic workshop, she is the eldest daughter in the family, and there is a six-year-old sister and a two-year-old brother below her, because her parents are very busy with work, she has always been responsible for taking care of her younger siblings, probably because of this relationship, Kayla has always given people the feeling of a big sister next door, but Xinghe does not dare to underestimate her.

The girl with her ponytail and freckled cheeks smiling was much more powerful on the inside than she looked on the outside, and under her brown pupils was a strong and intelligent soul, and from the first time she saw her in her cell, Xinghe had not seen her cry, and just yesterday she had released a Snow boy who was much taller than her, and she went around the back like a kitten, and then strangled the other man's neck until he fainted.

"You're up a little late today, and besides, your ointment still smells bad. She teased casually.

Xinghe spread his hands noncommittally, looked around for a moment, and then asked, "What's the situation, why didn't you see Lloyd?"

"He hasn't come yet, so it seems like I had some luck today. The ponytail on the back of Kayla's head swayed restlessly as she spoke, and after Xinghe borrowed the hairpin from her, she tore strips of cloth and tied her hair back to her head.

Xinghe understands what Kayla means, Lloyd has always been very keen on letting them grab food, and he has not shown up until now, which roughly means that this morning's breakfast is served in the cafeteria, and everyone has a share, although Kayla's fighting skills are not bad, but she does not have an advantage in this activity, and she is not as often as the three of Xinghe act together, so they often don't get breakfast.

Xinghe once invited her to join their team, but she politely declined, it was one thing to be on good terms with them, and it was another thing to join their small group.

Sure enough, they had only been standing in the hall for a moment when they heard the sound of a rattle bell coming from the cafeteria, and Kayla turned to look at them with a look on her face that I had guessed right, and walked towards the cafeteria.

Xinghe shrugged, and Anton and Ranyue walked at the end of the crowd without hurrying, and having a meal in the cafeteria meant that everyone had a share, so there was no need to rush too much.

Sure enough, when the three of Xinghe arrived at the cafeteria, Lloyd, who was wearing an apron, was handing out food, he seemed to be in a very good mood today, and he didn't speak ill of anyone, usually at this time he would always mutter, "You pigs." But today he just handed out the food in silence, and when Xinghe walked up to him, he deliberately sniffed at him, and to his surprise, he didn't smell the wine, and what surprised him even more was that Lloyd scooped a big spoonful of jam on the plate he gave to each of them in addition to the five soft slices of bread he gave to each person, and he hadn't even deducted the amount of food for the three of Xinghe, you must know that he used to do that for a long time.

Xinghe found a table in the corner of the restaurant with a plate in his arms, and couldn't help but mutter, "Is it a festival today?"

"It doesn't matter what he does, some of them can't eat. Anton obviously didn't have any scruples, so he quickly smeared some jam on the bread after sitting down, and then the two slices were sandwiched together and put into his mouth, Xinghe looked at him, and then at the children around him, and there seemed to be no problem.

Xinghe thought about it, and also took a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, while focusing on Lloyd, after distributing the food, Royd wiped his hands on his apron, and then left the cafeteria, Xinghe kept staring at him and left the cafeteria, and then lowered his head and whispered to Anton and Lanyue: "I plan to go to the third floor tonight to have a look." ”

"Third floor, tonight?" Anton put down the half-bitten bread, looking surprised.

"Brother, didn't you say that there were very dangerous people on the third layer last time?" Lan Yue looked worried, and didn't seem to agree with Xinghe's plan.

"I've been around the bottom two floors, and now there's only the third floor that I haven't visited, and I think the exit should be on the third floor. ”

"But ......" Lan Yue still looked very uneasy.

"It's okay, I'm just going up to scout tonight, we can't stay here all the time, we have to find a way to escape. Xinghe affectionately touched Lan Yue's head.

"We're going out!" As he spoke, Anton, who was sitting across from him, suddenly stood up excitedly and shouted.

"Fatty, what are you doing!" Xinghe hurriedly pulled his sleeve, but found that Anton's appearance was a little abnormal, his eyes were scattered, and he didn't focus on himself in front of him at all, Xinghe didn't have time to ask, Anton sat on the ground with his head on his butt, looking at the ceiling and smirking.

Xinghe noticed that his face was strangely flushed, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, Xinghe glanced around and found that many people had abnormal reactions, some jumped on the table and danced, and some people fell to the ground and cried bitterly.

Xinghe glanced at Lan Yue, who was still normal, and then at Anton who was lying on the ground rubbing his head, calling out for a headache in a daze, and suddenly he seemed to notice something, and rushed to the nearest few people who were acting abnormally, checked their plates, and looked at the plates of several people, and he came to a conclusion, this jam is poisonous.
