Although the circus broadcast had clearly warned that the performance was over, the players still did not dare to take it lightly, and they walked out of the safe passage of the auditorium in the dark, and no one dared to use the light source without permission in the middle.

Although the players didn't know how Qi Yan came up with the method of stopping the magic, they more or less guessed that it must be related to the light source.

"Ahh

"Shhhh Stay quiet and don't hear the announcement about leaving the venue in an orderly manner? ”

"An orderly exit is not a quiet exit......

Complaining is complaining, but it is about everyone's life, and after that, no player dares to talk nonsense, and even his steps are much lighter than before, until he passes through the mirrored corridor and arrives at the entrance of the tent, and after everyone confirms that their tickets for the show are stamped with badges, they finally relax completely, and walk forward on tiptoe cautiously, even more physically demanding than running.

The night fog had not cleared outside the tent, and the familiar sound of wheels rolling could be heard from the depths of the thick fog.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, this time it was the red tour bus that came to pick up the players.

The Visitor Safety Notice clearly mentions: Please do not trust staff other than those in blue uniforms, even if they claim to be the most senior staff member in the circus, and remember that only staff in blue uniforms will be willing to take responsibility for the safety of visitors.

Therefore, the red-uniformed staff on the tour bus are not officially recognized as "security personnel" by the circus.

Players who have already obtained the completion rules are unconsciously vigilant.

"Dear tourists, get on the bus quickly, the night fog is getting thicker, and walking in such a thick fog is not a pleasant thing for you." The red-uniformed staff made a "please" gesture.

Everyone only hesitated for a moment, even if they were a little jealous, but after many trade-offs, they finally got into the car.

The red tour bus started in the thick night fog.

"It's a miracle that someone like a magician who loves to perform would let you come out so early." The red-uniformed staff sighed.

Qi Yan glanced at the time: "It's half past eleven at night, it's not early." ”

The staff in red uniform smiled meaningfully: "Mr. Magician is obsessed with performances, and generally does not let the audience come out before twelve o'clock, after all, it is easy to forget the existence of time on the stage of magic, I believe you must have a deep understanding of this after watching the performance." ”

Qi Yan asked tentatively, "Excuse me, what will happen if I don't come out after twelve o'clock?" ”

Red uniformed staff: "The magic show will go on and will never stop until the audience dies and no one else is watching the magician's performance." ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

In half an hour, they will be trapped forever in the world of crazy magic without knowing it.

"Looks like you're familiar with magic shows." Qi Yan continued to probe tentatively.

The red-uniformed staff proudly raised the corners of their lips: "Of course, after all, I have been in charge of receiving tourists from here for many years, and of course, not many people have actually come out..."

Qi Yan asked again: "By the way, do you know what punishment the magician's assistant will have if the magic show fails?" ”

"Of course, magicians don't like to miss a hand on stage, whether it's an audience member or an assistant," the red uniformed staff member's chatterbox had been opened, and he continued with a flat mouth, "Although he doesn't blame his assistant in front of the audience, it's not uncommon to settle accounts after the fall... But now that the magicians are gone, there is no one to do with the assistant of the guild, which can be regarded as the luck of the assistant. ”

Qi Ji was silent thoughtfully for a moment, and then continued to ask, "After the magician disappears, what will he usually do with his assistant?" ”

The red-uniformed staff shrugged their shoulders: "There are only three ways for unemployed people to continue to stay in this circus, either to find a new job, or to buy tickets through special channels to become tourists, or to become an asset of the circus represented by the blue-uniformed staff." ”

When it comes to circus assets, the red-uniformed staff reveals a bit of disgust.

There is no doubt that the so-called circus assets are the animals in the cage that have a miserable end.

"That's it..."Qi Yan subconsciously touched the scar behind his ear, and after thinking for a moment, he hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, there is one less person in the car!" ”

The red-uniformed staff frowned incredulously: "What? No way, I've counted the number of people, and I can't make a mistake. ”

Qi Yan said with certainty: "It may be that you have miscounted, and my friend did not get in the car." ”

He replied so firmly, which made the staff a little shaken, after all, it is a very serious accident to not receive tourists in their work.

"yes, I remember one player missing, too." Qin, who has cooperated with Qi Yan many times, added fuel to the fire.

The staff looked at the time again and said helplessly: "Fortunately, it didn't drive far, if other passengers have no opinion, let's go back and confirm." ”

"Do you have any opinions?" The staff turned to the car and confirmed to the crowd.

The players in the car hesitated for a moment, then shook their heads in silence.

Although they didn't know what medicine was sold in Qi Jiu's gourd, Qi Jiu helped everyone break the game many times just now, and no one would maliciously dismantle the stage at this time.

In the thick fog, the red tour bus finally turned around and drove back.

Half a minute later, everyone who arrived at the magic tent again was surprised to find a long-haired woman in a black funeral dress standing outside the tent.

Everyone noticed that the woman wore the same tourist badge on her chest, and the bright yellow color was particularly dazzling on the black dress.

"Gu Zhenzhen?!" The moment Qin Rang recognized the other party, he was so shocked that he covered his mouth with his hand.

Although Qi Zhen had given him a hint before, he still felt very incredible when Gu Zhenzhen stood in front of him, especially after the fake Ji Xiaoye had just been cut in half.

There was no surprise on Qi Zhen's face, it seemed that Gu Zhenzhen's appearance as a tourist had been expected by him.

He pushed his glasses and said to the red-uniformed staff with a grin, "Look, I didn't lie to you, did I?" I almost missed a tourist. ”

Staff: "... Thanks for the reminder. ”

"Is this also an old friend of yours?" After the tour bus stopped, Lu Zhi asked Qin Rang in a low voice.

Qin Rang nodded: "I have worked together before, and I am Ji Xiaoye's lover." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi closed his mouth with a subtle expression, and looked at Gu Zhenzhen with a look full of sympathy.

Qin Rang moved to the side to make room for Gu Zhenzhen.

After Gu Zhenzhen got into the car, he quietly said to Qi Yan beside him: "Thank you." ”

Qi Jiu: "You're welcome, just raise your hands." ”

After hearing the "back road for the unemployed" given by the staff in red uniforms, Qi Zhen immediately guessed Gu Zhenzhen's next plan.

He remembers the first time he took to the stage to perform the throwing knives, noticing that all that was left on the stage was a splattering body piece, and that the badge worn by the dead player on his chest was missing.

The biggest possibility is that the magician or other staff members took it, and it is clear that the magician does not need to do such a thing, and the biggest possibility is his assistant.

The reason why the assistant wants to steal the dead player's tourist badge is to leave a way out for himself.

And instead of "finding a new job" and "becoming an asset to the circus", becoming a tourist is the easiest and most cost-effective way.

No one spoke for the rest of the journey until the red tour bus stopped outside the tent in the rest area.

"Good night, dear visitors, and good dreams." The red-uniformed staff bowed to the crowd and drove the tour bus back into the night fog.

One by one, the players walked into the rest tent.

Qi Zhen and Gu Zhenzhen walked side by side, and Qin Rang followed behind Qi Zhen, wanting to speak several times and stopping.

It was Qi Zhen who took the initiative to open the topic: "When performing... Thank you. ”

"Thank you for your cooperation." Gu Zhenzhen said.

Qi Jiu: "Do you have any plans for the future?" ”

Gu Zhenzhen was slightly stunned, and then shook his head: "Let's talk about your plans first, I may have something to help." ”

Qi Yan nodded, he didn't pretend to be polite, and said straight to the point: "If I can, I want to know the phone number of the cast and crew applicants." ”

He knew that the circus leaflet that Gu Zhenzhen got his hands had a specific number on it.

Chapter 149: Highway Circus (43)

Gu Zhenzhen was slightly stunned, and immediately took out the pen he carried with him, and wrote down the contact number of the circus cast and crew on the sticky note.

"You guessed it, I also found out after entering the dungeon that the other players entered the dungeon as tourists, except for me," she handed the note with her phone number written on it to Qi Yan, "At least that's what I've learned so far." ”

"Thank you."

Qi Zhen glanced at the phone number on the sticky note: 424-10190079

"This call is printed on a flyer, right?" Qi Ji confirmed.

Gu Zhenzhen glanced at him and was puzzled: "Have you also received a similar leaflet?" Then why are you asking me..."

Qi Zhen nodded: "But the leaflet sent to me was confused by the rain, and the information of the cast application phone number could not be identified, so I could only enter through the identity of a tourist." ”

Qi Zhen was immediately a little puzzled, judging from the current situation, only he and Gu Zhenzhen entered the dungeon through the circus leaflet, and the other players were randomly pulled in.

And he and Gu Zhenzhen just happened to have another purpose, was it just a coincidence?

Gu Zhenzhen nodded, and looked at the deep night fog outside the tent in a trance: "When I got the leaflet at that time, I had a premonition inexplicably, the player who 'inherited' Ono's identity would be in the dungeon, although there is no tangible evidence to confirm this speculation, but when people are desperate, they will especially believe in the ethereal thing like the sixth sense, maybe this is some kind of 'miracle'." ”

Qi Yan didn't speak, he believed in the sixth sense, but he didn't believe in miracles that appeared for no reason.

People who fall to the bottom of despair will follow the guidance of their sixth sense to try to get out of despair like grasping at a life-saving straw.

But is this really a miracle? Or did the system deliberately put this leaflet in Gu Zhenzhen's hands to help her enter the circus to clean up the members of the death row club?

The existence of the system without the ability to think emotionally does not mean that the system will not automatically clean up bugs.

The witch said that for the system, a member of the death row who used a bug to enter the "Rules Book" was a bug itself.

Rather than believing in something unrealistic like a miracle, Qi Ji prefers to believe that the system is quietly completing "self-purification".

"Qi Yan, do you want to apply?" Gu Zhenzhen asked.

Qi Yan nodded and smiled: "I'm already optimistic about my favorite position." ”

Gu Zhenzhen frowned: "But during this time, I noticed that there is no place to make a phone call in the entire circus..."

Qi Jiu: "Then how did they get the call?" ”

Gu Zhenzhen shook his head: "I don't know about this, it's also possible that the office where they handle the application information is not inside the circus." ”

Qi Ji was silent for a moment thoughtfully, and nodded: "Thank you for telling me this, it's okay, I want to find a way to solve it." ”

Gu Zhenzhen looked at him fixedly for a moment, and then looked into the distance again: "I know, you always have a way." ”

Qi Yan shook his head: "Maybe, but I'm also gambling." ”

"Who isn't? Surviving in this world is a gamble in itself, but the result doesn't seem to be so important anymore. Gu Zhenzhen smiled and shrugged.

This was the first time Qi Zhen had seen Gu Zhenzhen smile since they met, but she smiled more sadly than ever.

She took out a cigarette from her pocket and bit it in her mouth, because smoking was prohibited in the tent, and Gu Zhenzhen had no intention of lighting it.

She quietly took the cigarette in her mouth.

Qi Zhen recognized it, this was Ji Xiaoye's smoke.
