Chapter 374 The Story of No. 8

"I am Xia Chi. The reason why I am telling you now is just because I lack an opportunity." No. 8 pointed to the electric chair and helmet: "I won't lie. I entered this game just for now. You are suspicious and cautious. It's normal. Under the circumstances, I'm afraid they will be suspicious of me, but you have also seen the fate of No. 2, and those who lie will be electrocuted."

No. 8's voice was steady with a hint of exhaustion, and the look in his eyes contained extremely complex emotions that I still can't understand: "That's not necessarily true. It's difficult to combine the electric chair and the polygraph itself. Maybe the two No.’s death was not because of lying, it was just that the organizer wanted him to die.”

This is a very simple assumption. The hidden twelfth person knows all the secrets of the other participants. He operates everything in the dark. Once the person sitting in the electric chair lies, he will remotely control the electric torture, causing the electric chair itself to have The illusion of lie detection capabilities.

"Whether you believe it or not, it's up to you to decide, but I want to remind you, when you sit on it later, don't lie, because it will really kill someone." No. 8 grabbed the electric chair with both hands. , with a solemn tone.

"I'm here today just to inform you of something. I can't tell you the specific content. The answer lies in my story below." No. 8 frowned and thought for a while before adding: "Before I start speaking, , I hope you can take the brooch away, and turn off your cell phone, so that some words cannot be heard by people outside of here."

"You also know about brooches?" I was a little surprised. In my impression, Xia Chi had never experienced a live assessment, and the pinhole camera was a shooting tool only given to the official live broadcast of the underworld show.

"I know a lot more."

No. 8 said meaningfully, and I casually took off the brooch and put it in my pocket: "Is it okay?"

He nodded: "Believe me, I will not harm you."

"My name is Xia Chi. I studied at Xinhu High School five years ago. I am just a very ordinary student. I have no talent and average academic performance. The only extraordinary thing is that I have a special deskmate. ."

"She is a very smart girl, sweet-looking, mature and steady in her work, and thoughtful. Her biggest hobby is reading detective novels and exploring supernatural phenomena."

"I can't tell you her name, so I'll use Little A instead for the time being."

"Xinhu High School is a closed boarding school. It is inevitable that classmates will talk about some campus legends at night, such as Miss Hanako in the last stall of the toilet, the sound of piano from the music room at midnight, the moving doll model, etc. "

"Most of the classmates just treat these legends as a joke. Only Little A is different. She has been witnessed more than once, carrying a strange large-screen mobile phone late at night to and from various places where campus legends occur."

"She is a weird girl, but that doesn't affect my love for her."

"However, Luo Hua is deliberately ruthless, and Little A has no interest in love. She seems to live in a higher world, which is beyond my reach."

"Everything changed on the eve of the school's closure. One morning, Little A handed me three bottles of mineral water purchased from outside the school and told me not to drink the water in the school under any circumstances."

"I didn't understand what she meant at first. It wasn't until people started jumping off the building at school that I suddenly understood."

"The classmates who were chatting and laughing one day were shattered on the cold ground the next moment, blooming into a dazzling blood flower."

"The school seems to have suffered some kind of curse. From teachers to students, everything has become abnormal."

"Just a few nights before the school was completely closed, heavy rain poured down and people were panicked. Rumors of ghosts in the school spread among classmates and teachers, becoming more and more outrageous. The teacher prohibited students from going out, and many areas of the school were blocked. Lockdown, police patrolling the school every day.”

"However, all this can't change anything. People still commit suicide every day in the school. Those who commit suicide seem to have made an appointment. They walk to the top of the building together and then fall like dumplings."

"Once I saw the face of one of the suicides up close. It was terrifying. Before he died, he had a trance-like smile, grabbed the fence with both hands, and jumped out as if he was hypnotized."

"This scene still remains in my memory. I can't forget it. Those who have died are still living in my dreams."

"On the last night of the school closure, the school had already suspended classes and students were sent home."

"I packed my things and couldn't wait to leave that hellish place. But what I didn't expect was that Little A took the initiative to find me. She said that I had been sitting at the same table with me for two years and that I was the only person she could trust. She wanted to let me Go do something for her."

"I have always liked her, and I might never see her again after classes are suspended, so I agreed without thinking too much."

"She told me at that time that there would be a big chaos in Jiangcheng on a rainy night, and there would be a perverted murderer who would commit crimes crazily. She wanted me to stop the murderer."

"She told me several locations and asked me to stay in order."

"I promised wholeheartedly, but that night, my sister suddenly developed a high fever. I had no choice but to send her to the hospital overnight. Naturally, Xiao A did not complete what he told me."

"Since then, I have had no contact with Little A, and I have never seen her again."

"Five years have passed. My peaceful life was broken a few months ago. I graduated from college and was unemployed at home. Suddenly I received a call from Little A."

"She said she wanted me to help her again. The promise I didn't keep five years ago always made me feel guilty, so I agreed without thinking much."

"We have made an appointment to meet at Xinhu High School."

"We just had a few casual conversations after we met. Five years is enough time to fade away a lot of things. I tried to reminisce with her about the past, but she told me that she couldn't go back to the past. In short, I thought she was weird that day."

"When we were about to say goodbye, she handed me an advertising card and said some incomprehensible words to me, to the effect that 10,000 points was an impossible task, and she wanted me to record a few times on her behalf. Live show.”

"I took the advertising card and didn't know it was a conspiracy. I nodded and agreed. I took her mobile phone to live broadcast on her behalf."

"This is a secret between me and her. No one knows. I will wear the mask she gave me every time I live broadcast."

"Then live broadcast tasks will be released on the mobile phone every once in a while. The tasks at the beginning are very simple, such as going to the hospital blood bank to steal a designated blood bag, entering the haunted house late at night and twisting the puppet's head, etc., but slowly the tasks will He started to become crazy, like cutting off the hind legs of a wild cat in the back alley and killing ten birds within the time limit."

"In order to help her, I did all these things, but the last task that came up scared me completely."

"The mission requirement is to kill my biological sister, Xia Qingzhi, in three days without any restrictions on methods or means."

"I began to realize that this live broadcast was extraordinary. I looked for Little A everywhere, but she seemed to have disappeared."

"The phone call couldn't be reached, and the messages weren't returned. I wanted to call the police, but when I got home that afternoon, I found that my sister was missing."

"My parents told me that Xia Qingzhi left with the show advertising card I put in the drawer, and they don't know where exactly he went."

"At around four o'clock in the morning, Xia Qingzhi came home. Her appearance, tone of voice, and eyes were exactly the same as my sister's, but I always felt a little uncomfortable. I always felt like another strange soul lived in my sister's body."

"I wanted to find out everything, so I followed the address on the show card."

"I believe you have been to that place. There are countless rooms in the corridor. No one knows what is hidden inside the door before opening the door."

"The night I went, all the doors from the first to fourth underground floors were closed. In order to find my sister's whereabouts, I had no choice but to continue walking to the fifth underground floor."

At this point, the expression on No. 8's face finally changed, with deep regret: "Below the fourth floor is not a place where a living person should go. If you go there, you can't come back."
