Chapter 8: The Joker's Friend
In the abandoned building, the smell of dust is permeated, the fingers are missing, and the air seems to be wandering with ghosts, which irritates people and creeps.
Su Ling turned on the flashlight, and Hanako and several people gathered over and looked at the huge machine in front of him seriously.
Shoot off the dust on it, and the number of the ink spray paint is revealed.
A total of three motors, each placed in the three corners of the building, is the only object in the empty floor, and the clue should be on it.
Su Ling looked at them one by one and memorized those numbers in his heart:
101011100101000、100111000001011、1001011101100010
The extremely long string of repetitive characters is like a repeated mockery, and the words with unclear meanings seem to be written by the clown himself.
Su Ling could even imagine the clown's crazy gesture of writing wantonly while twisting his body with a marker.
What is the purpose of these numbers, this unreasonable fellow?
For a while, he couldn't do anything with these vague numbers, so he simply began to see if he could start the motor.
With flashlights, the four of them fumbled around the machine to see if there was a switch.
But unfortunately, no, not even the wires.
"It seems that these numbers are passwords," Su Ling retracted his gaze on the machine, "We have to solve the mystery and activate these three machines before it is possible to go to the upper level." ”
The three strange girls pondered, "What does this mean?" ”
"It's impossible for a clown to leave meaningless things...... Su Ling thought to himself, "Although this guy is crazy, he has his own unique rules, since I am allowed to participate in his game, it is impossible to have no solution." ”
The flashlight was consumed by nearly 50%, and Su Ling had a hunch that once he was completely plunged into darkness, he was afraid that something would come to harvest his soul.
The power consumed is like an hourglass of life, passing little by little.
Su Ling put his mind back on the three strings of numbers and began to look at the three sets of passwords.
The best way to study a new thing is to first observe and summarize its characteristics.
Su Ling began to observe to see if the three sets of data had anything in common.
First of all, it's all numbers, and moreover, it's only 0 and 1.
Also, there are quite a lot of repetitions, with 0 accounting for the vast majority and 1 being very few.
Is there a password that can be linked to it in reality......
I turned on my phone and wanted to search for relevant information, but I found that the network was disconnected.
Surrounded by the clown's barrier, the abandoned building is cut off from the outside world, like a large net separating the two spaces.
"Now I can only reason by myself......" Su Ling pressed his temples and looked at Hanako: "Do you have any ideas?" ”
Mia shook her head like a rattle: "Mia hates math the most, she doesn't understand these things at all." ”
Of course, Su Ling didn't pin his hopes on her, and looked at the most reliable rift girl.
Akiko's face was a little pale under the glow of the flashlight, and at first glance it looked as if a female ghost had crawled out of the TV.
However, her tone was gentle, and she whispered, "It should be some kind of encryption...... I've mentioned related genres when watching suspense detective shows, but I've never seen such an encryption, judging by the regularity of repetition, it could be Morse code, but I can't decipher it. ”
Okay, Su Ling sighed, she didn't even understand the most stable rift girl, could it be that she still counted on Hanako?
But when he looked at the girl in question, he found that Hanako was frowning and carefully examining the three sets of data, muttering to herself.
Su Ling leaned over to listen to her muttering: "There is only one truth!" ”
Hanako hammered her palm: "I understand!" ”
The three of them were taken aback by her: "What do you understand?" ”
Hanako said categorically: "The clown is playing tricks on us, Su Ling, just break the motor!" ”
It is worthy of you, Su Ling sneered: "You guy never disappoints people for the sake of disappointing." ”
Hanako crossed her waist dissatisfied, puffed out her cheeks like a fried squirrel: "Hey, don't think that if you scold me in another way, I won't understand!" ”
The rift girl on the side suddenly brightened her eyes: "What did you say?" Changing the story? ”
"That's right," Hanako replied casually, "isn't this guy just going around in circles and scolding me for my waste of firewood?" ”
The rift girl smiled at Su Ling: "Doctor, I understand." ”
"What do you understand?" Su Ling was a little confused by her.
The ripper woman pointed to the numbers on the motor: "These are very similar to Morse code, but the borrowed symbols are completely different, if you replace the standard symbols with numbers, you may be able to decipher them." ”
Su Ling was pleasantly surprised: "What is the result?" ”
The ripper woman said calmly: "101011100101000/100111000001011/1001011101100010, replace the long cornet with 1 and 0, and the result is - below!" ”
Su Ling was shocked in his heart, and vaguely understood something.
He stood in the center of the three motors, pulled out the Lingche, and slashed at the ground with all his might!
The "boom" explosion was accompanied by sparks splashing around, and strong shock waves kicked up heavy dust.
The darkness was broken open in a corner, and the entire building seemed to shake.
When the fluttering dust settled, Su Ling saw the mystery buried by the clown.
There is actually a compartment under the floor, and in the compartment is a lift.
Su Ling jumped onto the lifting platform, and there was a rotating handle next to him.
With the pull of the handle, the three motors began to rumble.
The lifting platform is like a sleeping lion waking up, shaking off the dust, and supporting Su Ling to rise.
Who would have thought that the way to go upstairs would be hidden underground, and that it would be with this kind of lift?
No wonder the motor is placed...... I'm afraid it's just to start the lifting table.
If you really listen to Hanako's destruction of the motor, it is estimated that you will never be able to go up.
Su Ling was a little lucky, but it was precisely because Hanako gave the rift girl inspiration that she found the answer to the mystery.
The elevator ran for a long time before stopping, and the flashlight seemed to be blocked by something in the middle process, and it was impossible to see the ascent at all.
After waiting until his feet were stable, Su Ling moved forward to explore.
The situation on the second floor is even worse than on the first floor, the flashlight can only illuminate the distance of one meter in front of you, and there seems to be a demon hidden in the darkness, engulfing the light.
"Oh, you solved the puzzle."
The clown's voice suddenly came from behind him, and Su Ling turned his head to look.
This guy stood behind him, silently, really like a devil everywhere, terrifying.
Su Ling looked at him with a frown: "What tricks do you want to do this time?" ”
Jack suddenly let out a long sigh: "You guy still has a helper...... In other words, don't you feel weird on your body? ”
Su Ling's eyebrows twisted into small bumps: "You didn't say that you can't bring helpers." ”
The clown spread his hands: "Of course, who would have thought that you guys would be so ...... Special, ha, I don't think the next test is necessary. ”
He suddenly said in a serious tone, "What do you think of these beautiful girls? Don't you really mind their weird identities? ”
"My friends," Su Ling did not hesitate, "the fire of my life carries my soul, and in my eyes, they are no different from people. ”
He leaned in front of Su Ling, the mask on his face seemed to have life, and his facial features wrinkled like tiny waves: "I'll tell you my secret, do me a favor, friend, maybe we can become good friends?" ”
Su Ling pulled out the spirit cut, he didn't have the confidence to kill the clown, but the other party temporarily changed the formation and canceled the game, I don't know why.
The clown raised his hand and made a gesture of surrender: "Hi hi hi, don't get excited, sir, I don't mean anything, I mean really, do me a favor, friend." ”
Su Ling looked at him coldly: "Why?" ”
Jack grinned: "If you don't agree, that hot girl will become something like me~"
Su Ling's pupils shrank, and he forced himself to calm down: "Do you think you can trap me here?" ”
"Of course not," the Joker suddenly lowered his tone, "but we are no rivals, at least not since then, and now we are friends, and we have to deal with real demons." ”
The clown looked at Su Ling and whispered, "Friend, I'm just a clown, but are you willing to be friends with me?" ”
Jack stretched out his index finger, raised his thumb, and put his three fingers together, making a shooting gesture aimed at his head: "Bang! ”
His body exploded into a cloud of fireworks that dissipated into the air.
