0713: You who shine in the parallel world

The flow of time in the escape room is different from that in the real world. In this escape room, when they successfully avoided the search of the caregiver, the time automatically jumped to the next morning.

The guys were joking around in the corridor when the lights suddenly came on and Zhang Yuan screamed in fright.

Su Xing looked at him speechlessly. It was understandable that he was afraid in the dark, but now that the lights were on and it was broad daylight, he was still frightened by just a sound.

Forget it, what else can I do? I'm used to it. No one should look down on each other among our family members.

It was finally time for breakfast and the curfew was over. They didn't have to be nervous and lower their voices for fear of attracting the fat teacher with neurasthenia, nor did they have to think about how many people should live in a room so as not to be checked by the nurses... right?

Rule 3 will probably still be in effect during daytime hours, since it does not restrict the check-in time period.

The seven of them discussed it and decided that if they came across a room in the future, they would quickly go in and search for night lights or other clues, but not stay there for too long, as staying there for too long would probably attract the caregiver.

"So we can go have breakfast now, right?" Lu Hu kept in mind that it was breakfast time. "Let's go and see what's served here. If the food is not good, it will be another piece of evidence that a black-hearted nursing home is abusing the elderly."

"Then what is considered good?" Yu Yu added.

Lu Hu said: "There must be staple food and side dishes, dry food and wet food. People in nursing homes are not necessarily from the same place, so special breakfasts from different regions must be prepared to give people different personalized choices."

"Look, some people want a bowl of salty tofu pudding, some insist on sweet one, some want soy milk and fried dough sticks, some want rice noodles and rice wine, and some may even want a Western breakfast," said Zhang Yuan.

"Otherwise it would be a shame to pay so much money, right?" Yu Yu complained.

The production team had mentioned before that meals would be provided during the recording of the show, because their show would most likely be recorded from day to night. But now it was obviously not time for a meal, and Yu Yu thought that the so-called breakfast must not be a good thing.

As everyone walked forward while chatting, they soon found a door with a restaurant logo on it.

Yu Yu pushed the door open and walked in, and found that the room was quite large. It was decorated like a cafeteria, with a window for getting food on one side, tables and chairs on the other, and a row of fruit kettles in the corner for people to help themselves.

Chen Xinsheng saw the kettle and walked over to pour himself a cup of tea. Seeing that his elder brother was so self-conscious, Yu Yu also walked over, picked up an orange, and rolled it on the table a few times.

"Here is a fruit knife." Chen Qisheng handed the small knife beside him to Yu Yu.

"No, I'll peel it and eat it." Yu Yu declined his kindness and rolled the orange on the table for a few times until it became easy to peel.

He peeled the orange in no time, broke off half and handed it to Chen Tansheng. Before he could take his hand back, he saw two more hands in front of him.

Niaohu stood in front of him, staring at him eagerly, and said two words bluntly: Give it to me.

Yu Yu had no choice but to cut the remaining orange into two again, put it in the hands of the two greedy boys, and peeled another one for himself.

The four of them were slacking off in the "tea room" and having a "tea break", while the other three were taking up the responsibility of pushing the plot forward.

Wang Yuexin is used to taking care of her brothers and sisters, and when the current atmosphere is no longer scary, Wang Zhengliang's gaming spirit is also ignited. He finds immersive interactive puzzle solving quite interesting.

As for Su Xing, there was nothing he could do. Everyone pushed him to be the captain because of his body, not his brain, and because he could lead the team. He had no choice but to stand up. If possible, who wouldn't want to be like Yu Yu, who has brains but chooses to be a jerk?

By the way, Yu Yu seemed to want to compete with him for the captaincy in the beginning? Oh, what a good move of retreating to advance. Su Xing reacted. He was still wondering why this guy was so active all of a sudden. It turned out that he wanted him to secure the title of captain. He didn't expect that this cunning fish was actually at this level.

As if they had telepathic connection, when Su Xing was chirping secretly, Yu Yu raised his eyes to look at him, then looked at the big and small Wang who were still asking the NPC chef who was serving food for news, and came to them with the peeled orange.

"What do you mean?" Yu Yu distributed the oranges and gave out all the ones he had just peeled.

"A useful piece of news. We have to earn red flowers to continue the game." Su Xing replied, taking a bite of the orange, and his whole face wrinkled, "So sour."

There were two other people whose faces were also wrinkled like chrysanthemums.

Guess why he didn't leave some for himself?

He had seen the three chrysanthemum-shaped faces next to the water dispenser just now, but the second orange had already been peeled, so he couldn't waste it.

Su Xing, Wang Zhengliang and Wang Yuexin poured a glass of water and took a big gulp to calm down the sour taste. They sat at the dining table nearby, ready to share the information they had just received with others.

Yu Yu washed her hands at the sink nearby, poured herself a glass of water, leaned on the fruit table, and listened, beginning to wonder whether this was a nursing home or a kindergarten.

Those who perform well will receive red flowers, and they can get red flowers from others by playing games, helping others, etc.

Although the specific function of the little red flower is not clear for the time being, from the panic-stricken look on the teacher's face when he saw that they didn't have any little red flowers on them, it is not difficult to see that bad things will happen without this thing.

Yu Yu looked at the three teachers who were sitting in the cafeteria "eating", as well as the teacher serving food in the kitchen. They all had three to five small red flowers on their chests.

Do people in nursing homes, whether employees or "elderly people", have to wear red flowers?

But the birthday teacher "last night"...

"Did the birthday teacher have a little red flower on his chest yesterday?" Su Xing suddenly asked.

The situation was too chaotic and urgent, and the light was dim. Most people didn't even get close to his cage bed, so how could they notice any details on him?

"No." Yu Yu said firmly. He was not panicked at all at that time and saw everything clearly.

"Very good, then I remember correctly." Su Xing snapped his fingers, "Although the current sample is too small, can we assume that if there is no little red flower, they will gradually become 'old people', and the rules stipulate that there are no 'old people' in this nursing home..."

"So if each of us doesn't get at least one red flower, we may be hunted down by the entire nursing home?" Chen Qisheng frowned.

"Anyway, it's not a good result, but if we change our thinking, we can leave work early." Yu Yu clapped his hands.

Su Xing's eyes lit up and she looked at him: "I don't know why I'm suddenly moved when you say that."

He looked at the camera on the table next to him and said, "Um, Director, will the salary for leaving get off work early still be the same?"

The other brothers laughed out loud.

After they had almost finished making a fuss, Su Xing said, "Ahem, I was just kidding, Director, don't take it seriously. We are very dedicated and will never slack off just to leave work early."

"You still have to earn red flowers. We just got a way from the teacher who serves food - washing dishes. If you help him wash the dishes, he will give you two red flowers. This task can be done by two people. Who will go first?"

Yu Yu waved his hand, signaling his brothers to choose first. He could find fun in any task anyway.

"I respect the elders, so let the two brothers go." Wang Yuexin said.

"I still love children, so I'll let the younger ones go." Wang Zhengliang said, "Washing dishes, isn't that your area, Wang Qingjie?"

"The first task is definitely not difficult. I like challenges."

"That's not necessarily true. This show doesn't follow the rules. They gave Xiaoyu a welcome gift right at the start, even though it's of no use to him."

Zhang Yuan couldn't bear to see the two of them giving way to each other right under his nose, so he urged them: "Alright, alright, the two of you, the old and the young, hurry up and go. If you don't go, Lu Hu and I will go."

Washing dishes in a bright, clean and spacious place, even if it is a task in a horror book, it is not that scary.

"Okay, then Brother Liang and I will go and make a sample first." Wang Yuexin said.

He and Wang Zhengliang walked up to the teacher who served the food and expressed their desire to help him wash dishes to earn red flowers. The teacher opened the door and let them in.

Yu Yu and the other brothers sat aside, intending to observe the difficulty of the task first, but the teacher who served the food saw that the five of them were sitting there without moving, and shouted at them again:

"What are you still doing sitting here? I don't have any more red flowers to give you. Go check over to the activity room."

I see. This is to drive them away and let them split into teams to do single-line tasks.

In this case, Zhang Yuan didn't bother to be polite with everyone. He just reached out and grabbed the corner of Yu Yu's clothes and approached him warmly.

There were five of them left, probably divided into teams of two or three. No matter how they were divided, he had to be with the fish tank that could give high-energy warnings.

Lu Hu reacted and reached out to grab the other corner of Yu Yu's clothes. The world of two people was not stable enough. The three of them should stick together and keep each other warm to be the iron triangle.

Then Su Xing automatically teamed up with Chen Qiesheng. Yu Yu couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss, the champion and runner-up are in the same group. This team is so strong. We have to increase the intensity for you guys."

These two, one light and one dark, one bright and one transparent, are a perfect combination.

The five people said goodbye to the big and small Wang in the kitchen, left through another door, and came to the activity room according to the instructions of the teacher who served the food.

As expected, the NPCs in the activity room all looked young, with different numbers of red flowers on their chests.

When they saw five new people in the activity room, they didn't react at all and just minded their own business.

Generally speaking, when someone suddenly arrives in a strange environment full of strangers, the i-person will choose to take a step back and stay in a corner to be self-sufficient, and the social work automatically falls on the e-person.

Yu Yu and Su Xing went straight forward to greet the NPC. Chen Kesheng did not rush out like them. Instead, he slowly and bluntly asked the NPC beside him if there was any job that could earn him some red flowers.

Zhang Yuan and Lu Hu stood aside and watched them, and waved and smiled awkwardly at the NPC who looked up at them.

They can make themselves active when needed, without their brothers around.

But as long as their brothers are around, they can be themselves comfortably. They can let go and become mentally retarded brothers, or they can stay where they are and become socially anxious. They can laugh or they can cry.

Su Xing is very cool. Even if the NPC pretending to be autistic doesn't want to communicate, he can still sit opposite the person and force a conversation with him.

Yu Yu is even more fierce. When an NPC goes crazy, he goes crazy at the same time as the NPC, as if people would pay attention to him if they were the same kind of people.

The NPC was sitting on a chair, rocking back and forth like he was riding a horse, laughing as he rode. Yu Yu saw this and dragged a chair over and jumped to his side: "Gee, gee! Hey, buddy, you're riding one too. Your little white horse, Sunshine Rainbow, is pretty good looking. Look at its fur and body. Where did you get it from?"

"...Go away. I don't play with people who don't have red flowers. Go away." The horse riding teacher turned his head and turned his "horse's body" sideways.

Yu Yu was an expert in horse riding. He turned around and came to his other side first: "It's okay if you don't want to play with me. I'll play with you. Hehe, my friend, your little red flowers are pretty. There are quite a lot of them, six in total. Come on, tell me where you got these flowers from?"

"I will not tell you!"

"Oh, you're so indifferent. It's okay, I won't disturb you. Just play by yourself." He smiled kindly.

Yu Yu rode his "horse" to Su Xing and motioned for him to lend him the square scarf armband representing the captain.

Su Xing was puzzled, but untied the scarf.

Yu Yu took the silk scarf, folded it into a triangle, and tied it around her face, leaving only a pair of blue eyes exposed. Then, under Su Xing's somewhat puzzled and amused gaze, she rode at full speed to the horse-riding teacher.

"Horse bandits, robbers, be honest and hand over the five little red flowers!"

Horse riding teacher: No, buddy, you don’t do the task but you just steal the task item?

Other NPCs: Director, can we rob this? During the training, I told you that players have this option! The star players before didn’t play like this?!

Shark Cat Bird Tiger: Oh, right! This person has exactly six flowers. If you want to do a single-line task, why not just snatch them from them? After snatching this person's flower, there will be one left, so he won't become an old man and be eliminated...

It seems that Yu Yu is very thoughtful and a gentle and kind person!
