Chapter 30: Man and Mouse
"冚家肖, it's another madman." Qiao Jiajin spat on the ground, "I feel like if we stay here for too long, we'll go crazy too."
Qi Xia was upset by this old man.
"Qi Xia, are you okay?" Ringo asked from the side.
"It's okay." Qi Xia calmed down, "These people can't stop me, I'm going to participate in the "game", you don't have to follow me."
"I'll go with you." Ringo said, "No matter what "game" you go to, I'll go with you."
Hearing this, Qi Xia slowly stopped, he turned around and looked at Ringo coldly.
This look was so cold that Ringo was scared.
"What, what's wrong?"
"Ringo, what's your motive?"
"Motive?" Ringo asked back with some confusion, "Do I need any motive?"
Qi Xia once again stared into Ringo's eyes and said, "Why are you approaching me? No matter how you think about it, you should follow the other team, right? The three of us are not the same kind of people as you, let alone companions. "
Hearing Qi Xia's question, Ringo just smiled and said, "I said, I'm very interested in you, I want to know what you're thinking about."
"I want to go out." Qi Xia said without hesitation, "I've said many times that I want to go out and see my wife, she can't live without me, do you understand?"
Ringo blinked and replied, "I understand."
"My wife is Yu Nian'an, she has suffered for me, she has suffered for me, she is all I want in this life, so I want to go back to find her, this is all I think, is it clear enough?"
"Clear enough."
"Now you know what I'm thinking, are you not ready to leave?" Qi Xia said coldly.
Ringo lowered his head slightly, thought for a long time, and replied, "I'm sorry, for some reason, I still can't leave. "
Qi Xia frowned and looked at Ringo. Although he did not feel the danger and lies from the other party, he could not see through Ringo's purpose.
"Whatever you want..." Qi Xia saw that he could not convince this woman, so he could only turn around and continue to move forward.
Qiao Jiajin also followed Qi Xia and said, "Liar, we agreed that you have brains and I have strength, let's cooperate."
"Do you have a reason to go out?"
"Yes." Qiao Jiajin nodded, "Although I don't want to die, I don't want to sit and wait for death."
"Cooperation is no problem, but I have to make it clear first." Qi Xia glanced at Qiao Jiajin and continued, "You and I have no friendship. If only one person can get out in the end, I will abandon you without hesitation."
"Damn... Don't you have any loyalty?" Qiao Jiajin shook his head helplessly, "It's really unpleasant. "
Hearing several people talking, Tiantian lowered her head silently.
Everyone seemed to have a clear goal.
But compared to them, what was she doing?
Suppose she really overcame all difficulties and got out of this hellhole.
Suppose she really returned to the real world and returned to her original life, then she would live a bleak life again, and embrace those dirty old men warmly.
If you think about it this way... maybe "dying here" is also a good destination.
"Tiantian, what's wrong with you?" Ringo asked.
"Nothing."
After leaving the square, everyone came to the street on the other side.
This place is different from the street of the convenience store. It seems to be some small houses, and low houses are staggered. I don't know if anyone lives here.
After walking a few steps, the four saw an animal mask again.
The man was standing at the door of an old room at this moment, standing with his hands behind his back.
Qi Xia walked straight towards him.
When he got closer, he found that the man was wearing a huge rat mask, which exuded an unpleasant smell. But this person is very thin and not as strong as the animal masks he had seen before.
Qiao Jiajin asked: "Rat man, right?"
The rat-headed man finally noticed the four people in front of him, then smiled and said: "I'm not a rat man, I'm a human rat."
Her voice was very nice, she was a girl.
This should be the first time that everyone encountered a woman under an animal mask.
"Pujie, you are still getting ahead of yourself..." Qiao Jiajin said unhappily, "I don't care what you are?"
"Human rat is a human rat, it will be troublesome if you call it the wrong name." The girl said with a smile, "It's rare for someone to patronize me here, do you want to participate in the "test"? "
Qi Xia looked at the house behind the human rat and asked her: "What are the rules?"
"Rat "test", one "way" for the ticket." The human rat was like a very patient shopping guide, gently introducing to the few people, "It's hard for you to find such a low-difficulty "test" in other urban areas."
"So what game is behind you? "Qi Xia asked again.
The Rat Man turned around, opened the door and walked in. This was a small warehouse.
"My game is called "Warehouse Search". There is a "Tao" in this room. Only one person can enter. If you find the "Tao" within five minutes, you win, and the "Tao" belongs to you. "
Qi Xia felt something was wrong, so he asked again: "What if we can't find it?"
"Can't find it?" The Rat Man laughed, "If you can't find it...your ticket will be invalid, and you will lose a "Tao."
"Lose a "Dao"?" Qi Xia was stunned, "That's it?"
"What else can I do?" Man-rat looked at Qi Xia in confusion.
What's going on?
Qi Xia frowned and thought carefully. The ticket costs one "Dao". Winning gets one "Dao", and losing loses one "Dao".
This game is very inconsistent. It sounds like you won't get more "Dao" or die because of it.
In this case, what is the purpose of participating in these games?
"Isn't this a good opportunity?" Tiantian said, "We take this opportunity to participate once, so we can better understand our situation."
"But..." Qi Xia was still a little confused. Even if we win this game, what does it mean?
"I can try it first." Tiantian turned around and said to Qi Xia, "It's okay to die."
"What are you talking about?" Ringo felt that Tiantian's state was not right.
"Really." Tiantian said calmly, "I just figured it out. I feel that whether I go out or not, there is no difference at all."
After that, she asked Qi Xia for a "Dao" and turned back to hand it to Man-rat.
"Is that all?" Tiantian asked.
"Yes, I have received the "ticket". The game will start when you enter the room." Man-rat nodded enthusiastically, "Let me reiterate the rules of the game. There is a "way" in this room now. If you find it and bring it out within five minutes, the "way" will belong to you."
"Okay, I got it." Tiantian nodded again.
"Are you ready?" Man-rat asked.
"Ready." Tiantian nodded.
"Very good." Man-rat said, "The game begins, good luck."
After that, she closed the door.
