Chapter 11: True and False Teammates
When Wei Nanyu woke up again, she found that she was still in place, the room was still full of fog, and she even touched the hand of the person she had just used as a weapon.
"Lin Yu? Qiu Wanna? Are you there? ”
After a few calls, there was no response in the fog, and Wei Nanyu understood that this was separating them again.
She fumbled through her clothes and found that they were very dry, the blood tide just now had no effect on her, and even the smell of blood in the air disappeared.
She slowly got up and found the door from memory, stretched out her hand and tried it, and then prepared to go out, but there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor outside.
She was startled and immediately locked the door, and then observed the situation outside through the cat's eye, only to find Gu Qi standing there talking with a waiter.
“…… You should know your mission, right? It's to gain her trust, and then wait for an opportunity to kill her. Everyone else's task is the same as yours, and as long as you can do it satisfactorily, you can leave here forever without restrictions. ”
"Gu Qi" twisted his neck into a weird angle: "Then why can't I do it now, but also gain her trust?" ”
The waiter was silent for a while, as if thinking of a suitable answer: "That's how the task is arranged, you just do it." ”
"So where is she now? Is it in this room? ”
Fake Gu Qi suddenly turned his head suddenly, his face suddenly enlarged and covered the cat's eyes, "Do I want to go in and have a look?" ”
Wei Nanyu subconsciously squatted down and covered his mouth with a "buzz" in his head, and his heart almost jumped to his throat.
Will he find out?
The waiter outside was a little dissatisfied: "Your time to look for her hasn't come yet, you have to go to the front room with me in a while, I can only start after I finish talking to a few of you about the specific task, what's the use of you just lying on the door?" Let's go! ”
The footsteps outside gradually disappeared, and after a long time, Wei Nanyu slowly got up and looked out again, and the door was already empty.
She sat on the ground like a prostration, she had observed Gu Qi's dress just now, it was exactly the same as Gu Qi's dress today, and she couldn't see the difference on the surface, not to mention that she didn't know him very well.
Fortunately, they didn't approach the room, which left her time to breathe and think.
Wei Nanyu carefully sorted out the clues that were known so far, and the environment she was in now was mostly just an illusion, otherwise there was no way to explain the sudden disappearance of the other two.
Combined with the task that the mask said and the conversation outside the door just now, there must be someone between her and the fake Gu Qi who will die, but how can she guarantee that the person she killed is fake and not real?
After thinking about it, Wei Nanyu had to sigh at the terrible rules, in case one of them accidentally killed their partner, they would stay here forever.
But if they don't kill them, they will also be in danger, and either result will be unfavorable to them, unless they can quickly distinguish the real from the fake.
"I don't want to think so much," Wei Nanyu said to himself, "As long as I don't get too close to Gu Qi, whether it's true or not, I'm safe, let's find another Gu Qi first." ”
Wei Nanyu quickly decided what she would do next, and Lin Yu and Qiu Wanna also went through the same process.
Qiu Wanna is timid but very smart, in order to survive, she can only follow behind the fake Lu Mingfeng: "Don't find me, don't find me, I just want to follow and see how to do the task, don't find out my ......"
She kept brainwashing herself, and it turned out that she really diluted a trace of fear.
In the other room, Lin Yu also sensed that the rules were wrong: "This is clearly a test of the tacit understanding and trust of two people, what to do depends on who you want to follow, whether it is true or false, but ......"
Lin Yu's head was buried deeply, and what Xue Nan did to her in the previous level was still vivid.
The two have known each other for so long, but because of a strange variety show, they have come to this point, and it always feels like the gains outweigh the losses.
She stayed there and thought for a moment, then clenched her fists, opened the door and walked out.
At this time, Gu Qi was trapped in a room, and he and Lu Mingfeng walked separately through the two rooms, but they were blocked after coming to the third room.
The original road has been completely blocked, and there is no turning back for him.
"How can there be a password for such a small room?"
Gu Qi looked at the surrounding environment, and this room was only a dozen square meters.
The floor was covered with the same thick carpet as the hallway, the tables, chairs and benches were all lying to the ground, and the door could not be opened when I entered.
On the other wall is a metal door with a keypad next to it.
He tried it and found that it was a four-digit password, and it was clear that he would only be able to move forward if he unlocked it.
He walked around the house without finding any clues, and finally looked into the corner, where there was a charred mural.
When he looked closer, he found that the figure in the painting was pointing forward with a bow in one hand and an arrow in the other, and the entire lower half of his body was burned black.
Gu Qi groped a little bit along the painting, hoping to find something unusual, but the result was nothing.
He took a few steps back and folded his arms: "This painting must have its meaning here, I always feel like I've seen it somewhere." ”
Gu Qi looked at the mural intently, not noticing the cold air coming in through the crack in the door.
After thinking about it for a long time, a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and he suddenly noticed the direction pointed by the arrow in the mural, and hurriedly squatted down and rummaged through the ruins.
A newspaper called "Art Appreciation" appeared in his hand, full of descriptions of various well-known paintings, but without dates.
Gu Qi couldn't care so much, so he could only flip through the pictures quickly, and finally his eyes stopped at a painting called "Hunting Map".
"The painting originated in the Neolithic period and depicts a man chasing wild beasts...... he got up hesitantly after reading the whole introduction.
Could it be that the password is the name of the painting? Is it really that simple?
He slowly pressed the letters "h, u, n, t" on the keyboard, and the metal door opened with a loud sound.
Gu Qi still couldn't believe it, but at this time, a cold wind suddenly blew on his back.
He turned his head to find that the walls were full of ice at some point, and if he had been a few minutes late, he might have been trapped here completely.
After Gu Qi left the door, he came to a brand new area, and the metal door behind him slowly closed to completely isolate the cold.
Soon after Wei Nanyu went out, she saw Gu Qi coming towards her, she didn't want to run into them at this time, so she could only rush to a room in the corridor in a hurry.
Just as she was about to open the door, the plank under her feet suddenly disappeared, and a swarthy mechanism appeared in front of her.
Gu Qi in the distance walked quickly after seeing her, Wei Nanyu gritted his teeth and let go of his hand, allowing himself to fall into the trap.
