escape from nightmare game

There was still a lot of people outside the cafe, which made the inside very quiet, so that the sound of chattering teeth could be heard everywhere. After returning from the toilet, everyone sat apart.The two bloody handprints printed on the glass door have dried up, and the caramel color is particularly conspicuous, and with the swaying of the air-conditioning leaves, a rancid smell can be faintly smelled in the cafe.

The room was a bit hot and stuffy, but several people still felt that they were staying in the freezer, as if they were shivering from the cold.

The death of the little green hair seemed to be a silent declaration, telling them that death had come.The few newcomers who had been to the toilet were pale and sat in the corner, not daring to speak. Any sound could break their tense nerves.

Not long after Shi Chen and Wen Xue returned to the cafe, two more people came in one after another.Among them, the local tyrant wearing a gold chain and gold watch looked very nervous, and his nose muscles on both sides were twitching constantly.

"Where is this place?" The girl who was quite calm before now clutched her knee tightly, trying to calm herself down.

"In a nightmare." Haozi answered tirelessly, took a tissue to wipe the blood on his hand, and introduced himself first.

After what happened just now, the others cooperated much more than before, introduced themselves and me one after another, then quieted down, waiting for the insider to explain.

Now there are still eleven of them alive, nine men and two women, eight of them claim to be newcomers, and only three of them admit to being old.Among the old people, there was also the one who screamed nervously at the beginning, who was completely useless.

Xiaoqiu didn't care about things at all, so Haozi had no choice but to act as the leader for the time being, introducing the newcomers about the world.

"Since it's a dream, is the death we've seen fake?" Shi Chen was just thinking about something.

"It's fake, but it's also true." Haozi looked at Shi Chen, paused and said, "Are you a policeman? Criminal investigation department? It was reported in the news last month..."

Haozi reported a series of names, and there were two cases that Shi Chen was very familiar with, and he had handled the cases.

So when Haozi told how the two died, Shi Chen twitched his brows and remained silent in surprise. After all, the death method of piercing his temple with a needle is not something that can be made up.And these are news that will not be broadcast at all, and it is impossible for outsiders to know.

Seeing that Shi Chen was silent, Haozi continued, "As long as we die here, the reality will commit suicide in the same way."

"Why did you die in the dream? Dude, don't tell me it's luck, it's better to wait for death." Shi Chen said

Haozi shook his head and said, "In this dream, I don't know yet, it's usually because some conditions are triggered before death."

"Then how can we wake up and return to the real world?" Shi Chen took out his notebook and put on the appearance of taking a statement during an interrogation.

Haozi took a look, and continued: "Have you ever played an escape game? It's similar to this, except that this world really bets your life, and then you find the key clues and wake up after completing the task."

Shi Chen curiously pointed his thumb in the direction of the door, "Go out from the hospital door, what will you see?"

"I don't know anything, I only know that those who want to run outside will not live long." Haozi explained.

Wen Xue sat in the corner of the cafe and was depressed for a long time, looking sideways out of the window, making it hard to figure out what he was thinking.As for the other people in the room, they didn't seem to have any thoughts, they sat there with their heads down and listened, and occasionally shivered, indicating that they still had a breath.

"Is there a time limit? Or if everyone dies, this so-called nightmare game is over?" Wen Xue turned around and asked.

"Yes." Haozi nodded and said with almost certainty: "In this world, we only have six days. At least on the forum, I haven't seen anyone who has survived for more than six days."

Wen Xue interjected: "Forum? What forum?"

"Let's talk about this matter after you survive." Haozi was annoyed by a hundred thousand why questions, and said in cold water: "In short, if we can't find a way to wake up within six days, there will be a massacre here, and we will all die. , no one will survive."

After a few words, the cafe fell into a more terrifying silence than before. The four or five timid people were short of breath and didn't make any response. They just breathed with their mouths half-opened, as if they would faint at any time.The girl in the lolita dress was called Fan Mengmeng. At this time, she was completely frightened and stupid. She could only stare at her eyes that were red and swollen from crying, and even forgot to cry.

However, Shi Chen was still the same, with a big nerve, and he whispered in Wen Xue's ear, unexpectedly, we could get along for a few more days.

Wen Xue sat in an inconspicuous corner of the cafe, still silent, but his ears turned red.

Amidst a moment of silence, the door of the cafe was suddenly pushed open, and an old man in a white coat rushed in, spotted Shi Chen at a glance, and hurried forward to shake hands.

"Hello, hello. Is this Police Officer Shi?" The man then said, "I am the dean here. I just heard that a homicide happened. I hope that Officer Shi can help me find the murderer as soon as possible."

Shi Chen held that cold hand, a little panicked, and said something casually.Afterwards, the dean chattered a lot, but before Shi Chen could say anything, the dean turned around and left without giving him a chance to get any clues.

"It's useless, this is just an NPC, just here to issue missions." Xiaoqiu saw that Shi Chen said mockingly, and then got up to leave.

Seeing that someone had already arrived at the door, Shi Chen asked, "Where are you going?"

Xiaoqiu stopped when he heard the sound, and said like a fool, "The key information has come out. Of course, we are looking for clues to catch the murderer. Are you still wasting time with you here? It's your business to wait for death."

"What if the information given is intended to mislead you on purpose?" Wen Xue said indifferently.

Xiaoqiu glanced at Wen Xue, although Wen Xue gave people the impression that he was considered outstanding among the newcomers, but he had seen a lot of good newcomers who didn't survive, unless Wen Xue...

"What do you know? You are an old man?" Xiao Qiu looked alert.

Wen Xue was a little overwhelmed by the sudden hostility, so he just shook his head in response and didn't speak.

Shi Chen was very displeased with Xiaoqiu's sizing eyes, and blocked Wen Xue, "Brother, I kindly remind you, is there something wrong?"

"Take care of yourselves, newbies don't live long here." Xiao Qiu said with a sneer.

After speaking, Xiao Qiu left the cafe.

The bell hanging on the door of the cafe rang "jingling", and shook with the closed glass door, waking up other people with a long reflex arc like an alarm bell. Everyone finally digested the content, came to their senses, and He began to cry and yell endlessly, his nerves were fragile, and he was too nervous, and he was already squatting on the side and retching.There are also people who yell that they don't understand why, and feel that they are very unlucky to encounter such a thing.

The bottom of the coffee cup in Haozi's hand lightly touched the round wooden table, as if he didn't want to talk about this topic, his face was full of resentment.After a few minutes of silence, Haozi sighed and asked, "Did you almost die before, but because of a mistake in your own thoughts, did you narrowly escape from death?"

"This morning, the typhoon killed two people at the shop where I bought breakfast. The billboard killed two people. I was right behind and suddenly felt dangerous, so I didn't go forward..."

"I almost got hit by a car..."

……

All the newcomers almost died that day, but the dog luck survived, including Shi Chen.

Shi Chen swallowed his saliva, and involuntarily met Wen Xue's eyes, thinking of the incident of the rocks sliding down at noon, he thought that it could not be such a coincidence, as if death would not let them go.

Just scanning everyone's expressions, Haozi immediately understood, so he didn't say any more, and suggested that everyone look for clues early before dark, and find a place to spend the night by the way, because nights in this world are often not safe.As for why it's not safe, Haozi didn't elaborate, but seeing the blood marks of two fingers on the glass door, everyone can understand what the worst consequences will be.

When people came out in a file, and they were almost gone, a little fat man suddenly blocked Shi Chen in front of him.

In the morning, his Wrangler was rear-ended, and in his dream he met the owner of the car that caused the accident. Shi Chen couldn't show a good face towards Xia Leyi.However, Xia Leyi has selective blindness, so he cheerfully joined in.

Xia Leyi said: "I just heard the news that this hospital has released several cases. From last year to now, people will lose their heads almost every month. And they were all chopped off. I heard that the death condition is terrible. .”

Xia Leyi's nerves were not delicate, and he was afraid that what he said would not be vivid enough, so he deliberately slapped himself twice on the neck with a hand knife.

Shi Chen said, "So you think it's a serial killer case?"

Xia Leyi shrugged: "Probably, I'm guessing."

Shi Chen was impressed and said, "Did you ask about this when you were outside?"

"No, I was just playing a single-player game outside." Xia Leyi pointed to a group of snake spirit patients outside, "When I came in, I just heard what they said."

Wen Xue was dumbfounded and said, "Playing games?"

Xia Leyi pointed out the direction and said: "Just play there, the sun is good, the main reason is that it is warmer."

Wen Xue: "..."

Shi Chen: "..." I respect you for being a man.

Xia Leyi added: "Have you noticed that this hospital is as cold as a mortuary freezer?"

Shi Chen: "..." If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb.

The people in the hospital were really not normal, so Shi Chen came forward to ask a few words, just listening to the tone of these people's voice, the yin and yang were strange, and his scalp felt numb.

Probably having inquired about the serial murder case, Shi Chen looked at the electronic clock in the lobby. It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon, but the sky outside the hospital building had lost the sun, and the sky was covered with gloomy clouds.The patients in the hospital seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and there were few people in the entire outpatient lobby.

Shi Chen half-believed Haozi's words, but he also thought that the current world was a bit different from his cognition, and could not be judged by common sense at all, and the ghost knows when it will be completely dark.

"Find a place to spend the night early." Shi Chen said quickly.

"En." Wen Xue followed closely, "Go to the inpatient department and ask."

Shi Chen responded, and turned his head to urge Xia Leyi who was panting to leave.

In the dim light, the walls of the hospital were a little gray, probably because there was no bright light to cover them up, the whole building looked dilapidated and mottled, the colors mixed with black, gray and white made Shi Chen feel like they were in an old movie.

The corridor leading to the inpatient building was very deserted, and the three of them walked quickly in it, their own footsteps echoing in their ears.

"Damn it, what do you mean there is no place for us to live?" A local tyrant's sharp voice came from the end of the corridor, "Your dean came to us to investigate the case on purpose, why didn't you even arrange a place to live for us?"

"That's right. We can't sleep in the outpatient hall."

Shi Chen walked over and saw several newcomers gathered around the service desk of the inpatient department, arguing endlessly, Haozi dissuaded him from the side, while Xiaoqiu was watching the show with folded arms, very sure, he should have found a foothold.

These people will only waste time if they are noisy, Shi Chen clicked his tongue, feeling a little tired, and said to Wen Xue: "I'll go up and ask, you wait for me here."

"I'll go." Wen Xue walked to the service counter and negotiated with the counter lady in a low voice.

Before the others heard the content clearly, Wen Xue took something out of his pocket.

After a while, the smiling counter lady personally led them to take the elevator.

The elevator didn't have much space, and it was crowded with eleven people staying in it, but right now, there was something that made them even more uncomfortable, and that was the notice board on the elevator, which clearly stated that it could only carry ten people.So among them, there is someone who is something, which makes people daydream.
