Chapter 14 The Evil Within
Chapter 14 The Evil Within
On the second day of entering the bunker, Ueno was the first to get up.
For some reason, he slept badly and didn't even remember when he fell asleep. He attributes this to the side effects of the hypnotic gas. Lying on the bed, after opening his eyes, Ueno was tossing and turning, the image of Shen Ti standing in front of him and teasing him and Liu Chengwei kept appearing in his mind. His expression and tone were entangled like a nightmare.
Could it have been discovered, otherwise why would Shen Ti say that?
He has a full eight health bars. If you really know that the object of his curse is him, why not launch an attack.
Yang Ming, will they help themselves...
He really couldn't sleep again. The religious murals in this cramped room made him feel more and more heavy and depressed. Ueno quickly got up, cleaned up a little, opened the door and left the lounge.
After he came out, he saw that the doors of the other rooms were closed, and he planned to go to the living room. He didn't expect to see a new piece of paper on the wall beside the passage. He hurriedly stepped forward and took off the paper.
"what are you doing?"
Hearing the sound, Ueno turned around in fright and saw Yang Ming standing at the door of Room 1. He was holding on to the side of the door, his eyes suspicious.
"Mr. Yang..." Ueno naturally wanted to explain clearly, he didn't want to be misunderstood by Yang Ming, if he was pushed out to fight against An Wujiu like Lao Yu and Shen Ti, then there would be no good fruit to eat.
listen to him
For a long time, Yang Ming was silent.
He didn't say a word, and Ueno didn't dare to say anything. He thought of the morning when the game started, the first time he learned that his crush was Yang Ming, he immediately approached him to express his innocence and sincerity, but Yang Ming only cared about his curse line.
[If you want to cooperate, tell me your curse line first. ] He said so.
Ueno had to open his hidden panel to Yang Ming to gain his rare trust.
[I don't want to die, I'm only 22 years old, and I finally finished college in reality. In order to let me go to school, my parents signed a labor contract until the age of 90, and they adopted my sister to someone else for a sum of money . The whole family emptied out for me to study. I beg you, I will do whatever you want me to do, and my red line is connected to you, and I will protect you no matter what. ]
He waved his tail to Yang Ming like a dog and begged for pity, but the other party's expression was the same as at this moment, no waves.
Yang Ming is going to walk away from his hidden red and black lines, holding all his own handles in his hands, but not telling him about his own red and black lines, which is totally unfair.
But there is no fairness in this game.
Pulling away from his thoughts, Ueno glanced at the closed door of the other room, turned Yang Ming into the unoccupied passage, took another step closer to him, and whispered in his ear: "I...I It feels like Shen Ti already knows that I cursed him."
Yang Ming frowned.
Useless fool.
When he backed away, Yang Ming's dry and yellow face stretched out, showing a smile, and comforting Ueno, who had eyes full of fear, "It's alright, don't worry."
"Even if he is alive, he has little value. This kind of person doesn't need to do anything." Yang Ming held the paper in his hand, his face was full of victory, and his voice was extremely low, "I will let the Shengyin Gang come together in the morning. I checked Wu You's red and black lines."
"How? Who does he curse? Who does he have a crush on?" Ueno asked hurriedly.
"I originally thought that this kid was the one who cursed me, but he dared to go against me." Yang Ming's mouth showed a hint of contempt, "I didn't expect it to be Liu Chengwei."
"Ah?" Ueno looked embarrassed, "Then what about this?"
"What should I do?" Yang Ming glanced at him displeased.
Ueno consciously said the wrong thing, and immediately turned aside, "Then, who is the person he has a crush on?"
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows, "Old Yu. Anyway...his red line and black line board don't have much interest to us. He came to me last night and told me that he also wanted to join our alliance, he could Help us by staying up at night, but I'm afraid we won't accept it."
"I was still hesitating last night, so the first thing I did when I woke up today was to check his red and black lines. I kind of know why he was afraid that we wouldn't accept it. It turned out that the cursed object was our people."
"Then why don't you use it first? Anyway, his red and black lines are people of low value, and they are not a threat." Ueno immediately smiled flatteringly, "Looking at this new clue, we seem to need a night. Someone who can fall asleep without being forced."
Yang Ming smiled and put the paper in his hand into Ueno's hand, "Take it to the lounge porch and pretend that nothing happened. Pretend that we have just discovered it."
"Be louder, they should wake up too."
When everyone really woke up and learned the new notice on the paper, the situation became even more treacherous.
I thought it was just a simple survival game. As long as you work hard to survive, if you are lucky, the object of your "secret love" survives and the object of your "curse" dies, and you will obviously become the winner.
But the emergence of cultists broke the precarious public trust in the game.
Not only can everyone not know whether the person in front of them is cursing them or not, they don't even know whether the other party wants to kill them.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the small wooden door on the clock in the living room opened, and a statue of an angel was pushed out from inside, and the whole bunker once again played sacred music. That means it's nine o'clock in the morning.
After the music was over, Ueno said softly, "It's also possible that this piece of paper isn't real."
"I mean if...after all, none of us seem to be targets of cultists. If there were cultists, shouldn't they have already started?"
As soon as these words were said, Shen Ti laughed directly, and Ueno's face instantly became hopeless.
He didn't understand what Shen Ti was laughing at, he just felt a little scared.
"Yeah, you're really smart." Shen Ti tugged at the lower edge of his glove and tightened it, like a doctor who was about to perform surgery, "One of us was killed. The guy who has been there twice has an abnormal personality, and it seems that he is not a human being."
"I didn't say that!" Hearing his hint, Ueno immediately explained to An Wujiu in a panic, "I really didn't mean that..."
Liu Chengwei sneered directly, "Maybe it's true, I think An Wujiu is the most like a cultist who can kill and poison."
Being suspected, An Wu Jiu was still casual, his eyes didn't fall on Liu Chengwei at all, he was just doing warm-up exercises by himself, stretched his arms and turned his neck.
"Oh, I actually think so too. Only this status is worthy of me. What a pity, I only got the role of an intern."
"But..." He broke his hand and walked to Liu Chengwei.
They are not too different in height, An Wu Jiu looked at him calmly, "If I really were a cultist, would you let you kill me in a duel?"
He raised the corners of his mouth, "Who do you think I am to be so cowardly?"
"If I were a cultist, you would have died last night."
Although An Wu Jiao couldn't give any real evidence at the moment, the momentum of his speech was irrefutable.
"Let's talk about it." An Wujiu smiled at Ueno Dacheng, "Why can't this piece of paper be fake? I want to say that the first person to discover this thing is the most suspect, there are not many murderers who pretend to be the first in the murder case. The one who found the body?"
Hearing these provocative words, Ueno shook his head quickly, "No, it's really not me, I didn't do it..."
Under the stalemate, Lao Yu opened his mouth and first gave a conclusion, "I still think that cultists should exist, and the games we have participated in before are not easy, maybe the system sees that our competition is not fierce enough. , it's added."
He continued: "Also, I just said that An Wujiu is a cultist. I don't really believe that either. Currently, An Wujiu is the only one who has lost his health bar. He only has one health bar left. Yes, the cultists will not be unaware of their identity, and the task is to kill seven people, which is very difficult. Why didn't he act on the first day?"
"You don't know him." Yang Ming's face was cold, "An Wujiu can do anything."
An Wu Jiu touched the wound on his wrist without raising his eyelids, "Wow, you know me so well, I'm great, don't you have a crush on me?"
Being disturbed by him like this, Yang Ming's face was ugly.
"That's right." Wu You raised the brim of his hat, and his big, round eyes showed a bit of hesitation and fear, but he finally said, "There are two things that I find very strange..."
Yang Ming uncharacteristically did not boss him around, but gave him a friendly nod, "You say it."
"I heard some noises last night. Just when I was about to fall asleep, I felt that something was moving on this corridor... But I didn't dare to open the door. I should be sleeping at that time. I was afraid that I would commit a foul when I went out."
"Hey, I seem to have heard it too." Zhong Yirou thought she had hallucinations, but she didn't expect someone to be like her, "And the sound was not small, it seemed to be dragging something, it was loud and scary."
Wu You nodded, glanced at Liu Chengwei, paused for a moment, and continued: "The second thing is, before I came in last night, I saw Liu Chengwei sneaking at the door of Zhong Yirou and Yang Ming's room. What did you do, and then left." After speaking, he seemed to be afraid that people would not believe it, and added, "I walked with Lao Yu at that time, and he saw it too."
Hearing what he said, Lao Yu could only admit: "It is true, but I don't know what he is doing. Anyway, we sat in the reading room chatting, and then we were forced to sleep, and I don't remember it later."
Zhong Yirou reacted first and pointed to herself, "My room?" Her beautiful eyes were painted with bright green eyeshadow, bright yellow mascara, and matched with this mint cheongsam, which was fresh and dazzling.
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Liu Chengwei, "What do you want to do? Your room is still separated from mine, so you couldn't get in last night."
Her words were like a match that ignited in an instant, lighting up the darkness that everyone was still groping for. Everyone looked at Yang Ming.
In terms of rules, his room is adjacent to Liu Chengwei, one is 8 and the other is 1.
"What does it have to do with me!" Liu Chengwei's eyebrows twitched, "Is it all fucking sick, is there any problem standing at the door?"
He immediately went to Yang Ming and showed his loyalty to him, "Brother Ming, you don't even suspect me, right? They're just making things up here to sow discord between us!"
Yang Ming's expression was dull, and there seemed to be a cloud over his brows. It took a while for him to speak, first to comfort him a little,
"Of course I don't just trust anyone else. The jury is still out on this matter, and it's impossible to identify a cultist based on one act alone."
Liu Chengwei's dangling heart reluctantly fell, and he glared at Wu You, who was looking for trouble.
Zhong Yirou had lingering fears about Liu Chengwei's sneaking at the door of her room, and she thought of an idea, "I see, since everyone agrees that there are cultists, the cult's purpose is also very clear, seven lives, mission. With such a huge amount, it's impossible not to act directly last night."
Lao Yu nodded, "That's right, let's take a look at everyone's health bars, there may be new discoveries."
In addition to the mandatory energy bar, health bar and survival value can be hidden, all eight people chose to hide in the settings.
Although Yang Ming has just expressed his belief in Liu Chengwei, doubt is like a thin thorn that pierces into the flesh and is not picked out. The subtle and unbearable pain will never go away.
"Then check all of them." Yang Ming finally made a decision like this.
Liu Chengwei's face was ugly, and his heart was dissatisfied, but he couldn't stop anything, he just didn't want to say a word, put on a resentful expression and pulled out his character panel like everyone else.
In an instant, the corresponding number of blood bars appeared on everyone's head, and everyone confirmed each other.
After Ueno finished counting his own, he looked at Yang Ming who was standing aside and was not worried about his own health bar, and counted for him with incomparable diligence.
Yang Ming is a capitalist, and the initial role is high survival value, low force value, and only two health bars, which is very easy to count.
"Ming, Ming brother..." Ueno's fingers were shaking a little.
"You have one less blood bar, one less..."
