Chapter Twenty-Seven: Yu Yu Is Still Alive
This is...... Three bars?
Jiang Bei looked at the strange symbol under the bed, and the three bars were gathered together in the middle, like a misplaced "Ya" character.
"What do you think this is?" He beckoned the others to come and see.
Zhao Tianran squatted down and looked at the symbol for a few seconds, then got up and went to check the right hand of the person on the bed: "This symbol should have been written down by Bai Jiuri before he died, and there was dust on the tip of his index finger." β
"He must have found something and wanted to tell us," Zhao Tianran crouched down again and stared at the strange symbol, "but what does that mean exactly?" β
"It seems that you want to write something but you can't finish it, can you tell what it is?" Jiang Bei asked the dog squatting next to him.
A dog can't speak, can only use words to communicate with people, should be sensitive to words.
But he also shook his head and said he couldn't see it.
Yu Yu also didn't know what this meant.
Jiang Bei had no choice but to take out a pen and paper and record this symbol on the paper first: "It must be related to the copy solution." It was suddenly thought of when he was about to die, could he have seen something before he died and suddenly thought of a way to break the game. β
What could he see in this room?
Jiang Bei glanced at the room a few times, but didn't notice any difference from the other rooms. He searched carefully for a while and didn't find anything abnormal, so he sat on the sofa and spread out the book that Bai Jiuri gave yesterday: "Let's sort out the clues we get now, maybe we can find the meaning of this symbol from the clues." β
The figure had already begun to climb up the fourth floor, and Yu Yu would die if he couldn't think of a way before midnight.
You could tell she was trying to suppress her fears.
"The ghost keeps climbing up and climbing up one floor at a time, we can't leave the apartment and we have to stay for seven days, we will be teleported back to our room at midnight, and everything in the apartment will return to its original place and ......be repaired at midnight," Ebetsu broke the masonry on the stairs the next day, and when he went back to see it on the third day, the apartment had been automatically repaired.
Zhao Tianran watched Jiang Bei take notes from the side: "Coupled with your speculation yesterday, you may miss the opportunity to break the game in the next few days." β
Jiang Bei also wrote this in the notebook.
"Now only these clues have been found." He frowned as he looked at the notebook in his hand as he spoke, "But it can't be connected to the symbol left by Bai Jiuri." β
The message that a person wants to convey to others during the experience must be plain, for example, an eighty-year-old man who is about to die will definitely say it concisely when he tells his son about his inheritance.
"The money is hidden under that tree in the courtyard." - He should have said that.
Instead of saying "the money is hidden in the same place where you when you were three years and seven months old"
Bai Jiuri must have written the most critical place directly, but half of the people died in the middle of the writing, leaving only three extremely abstract bars.
"Could this be a six-character missing the middle cross?" Zhao Tianran associated this symbol with the number, "Suggest that we can find a way to break the game on the sixth floor?" β
"Let's go to the sixth floor and have a look," Jiang Bei decided immediately, "It's better than smearing it in these two eyes." β
Together, they walked to the sixth floor, where the figure had climbed to the middle of the stairs and had to hurry.
The sixth floor was Ah Gou's room, Jiang Bei searched carefully in his room, and even drew a floor plan to compare it with Bai Jiuri's room, trying to see if there was any difference.
But the furniture in both rooms was similar, and there was no difference at all.
Jiang Bei even lifted the dog's mattress to look at it, but he didn't see anything special.
"There's nothing, I've searched all the trash cans." Jiang Bei sat on the sofa and flipped through the notebook in his hand with some irritation.
Zhao Tianran thought seriously: "Why don't we check all the rooms in the apartment, focusing on the differences between the low-rise rooms and the high-rise rooms." If you guess that we may miss the opportunity to break the game in the next few days, then it is very likely that there is a turning point in the lower room that can stop the ghost, and there is no more at the upper floor, and the symbol left by Bai Jiuri may also be related to this turnaround. β
"What you say makes a lot of sense," Jiang Bei stood up, "Let's search in layers like this, we can hurry up." β
More than half of the day has passed, and there is no time to waste.
What exactly does the symbol left by Bai Jiuri mean, and what is the difference between the lower floor and the higher floor. Jiang Bei searched the first floor as fast as he could, and went to the empty basement by the way, but found nothing.
The other three didn't get anything either.
By this time, the time was approaching midnight, and there was still half an hour to go.
In the room on the seventh floor, Yu Yu sat with his hands held and lowered his head: "I think I won't be able to come up with a solution for the rest of the day...... I'll hide under the mattress tonight. I thought about it, since I would definitely be teleported back to the room, it was better to hide in the room as soon as possible, so that the ghost might not find me. β
"I know it's naΓ―ve, but it's good if you don't get past the ghost and delay a bit. The longer it takes for the ghost to find me, the longer the people on the upper floor will live, and if I can drag it for half a day, then I will be considered dead, so that at the end of the seventh day, it may not be able to climb to the seventh floor, and someone can survive the level. β
She smiled reluctantly, worse than crying.
She got up and turned to leave, but staggered to the door.
Jiang Bei stepped forward to support her, only to find that Yu Yu was already pale, obviously scared but holding on.
Although she was afraid, she still insisted on walking down, and Jiang Bei followed aside, not knowing how to comfort her.
People are going to die in half an hour, and now saying comforting words is like farting, so he has to hold Yu Yu in silence on the side.
"Can I ask you for something?" She turned her head to look at Jiang Bei, "My mother works in a power plant, what if ...... If you can leave the dungeon alive, can you help me tell her to take care of herself. β
"Okay." Jiang Bei nodded slightly.
"Thank you." Yu Yu smiled at him again, and this smile was somewhat sincere.
The humanoid had already climbed to the door of the fourth-floor room, Yu Yu looked at it for a few seconds and turned back to say goodbye to Jiang Bei, and then walked into the room without looking back, as if he was ready to meet death.
After Yu Yu returned to the room, Jiang Bei stared at the figure outside the door and took out an axe.
After slamming down, the floor tiles outside the doorway cracked, and the human figure was imprinted on the lower layer.
He smashed it a few times without giving up, but the other party was still intact, and now if he drove an excavator over and said that he might be able to dig out the seal with the ghost, but now let alone the excavator, the small forklift can't find it.
Jiang Bei scolded it angrily.
There was the sound of footsteps on the stairs, and he looked up to see that it was Zhao Tianran and Ah Gou coming down.
Zhao Tianran looked at the bricks that were broken by Jiang Bei in front of the door: "Yu Yu is right, if death can no longer be avoided, then you can only delay the time for the ghost to go up as much as possible, so that it can't climb to the seventh floor on the last day, if you can't find the right solution tomorrow......"
Halfway through speaking, she stopped and looked at the figure on the ground, and then looked at Jiang Bei: "Let's go up and talk." β
Obviously, I don't want my next words to be heard by ghosts.
Although Jiang Bei felt that this thing didn't listen to people at all, he still followed the two up the stairs.
Zhao Tianran said softly as he went up the stairs: "If I can't find a solution tomorrow, I will find a place to hide in the house......"
Jiang Bei listened silently, passed by the turning platform between the two stairs, turned a corner, and continued to walk up.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he jerked back and stared back at the platform he had just passed behind him.
"Damn, I can figure out what's different between the upper floors and the lower floors."
