The doll is not Rebecca.
After Simmons shuddered under the inexplicable reversal, he frowned and asked, "Alan lied to us?!"
Abe did not say "yes" or "no", but slowly said: "Actually, the contradictions in him appeared very early. When we entered the game at the beginning, the players we saw were all standing separately, as if they were divided into countless Small group, right?”
"Um… "
Inspired by her words, Simmons gradually thought about it and said, "At that time, those two people were grabbing your backpack. Not only did the others not stop them, they seemed to want to snatch the loot from those two people again. It seemed like this was a vicious competition and elimination environment. But when Allen came forward later, they did not protest against his voice. I thought at that time that they were intimidated by you and Ultra, so they were unwilling to come forward to negotiate, which just gave Allen a chance. But from then on It seems from the following situation that he is not only able to lead these people to a certain extent, it is very likely that they have already formed a complete group, and he is the leader of this group."
"But this is strange. How could a complete group form in this environment?"
"The first is because the game is too difficult, the second is because survival is guaranteed, and the third is profit sharing."
As he spoke, Abe stood at the bent feet of the closet.
She was not idle when she spoke, and she led the silly Simmons to search the room. Finally, I found a map in the drawer of the closet. It was the map of this house. This is a treasure map with a cartoon adventure color. Treasure boxes are drawn in many places.
The map is so large that the person who finds it cannot hide it in his pocket. In addition, it will appear in the original place every time it is refreshed. Therefore, it is possible that Allen, who discovered it early, did not put it somewhere else.
Simmons thought quickly, "These are supplies, right?" If you look carefully, you can see the signs of weapons or medicines on the treasure box. It seems that in addition to dangers, this house is also filled with many "treasures".
He said: "I see, with these materials, they will only be beaten by dolls at most, but they will not be eliminated due to excessive blood loss. As long as they unite and take turns to answer questions in order, they can avoid being eliminated. The best situation is that every round can be eliminated With new people coming in, no one will get hurt.”
As for why Abe and the others were not recruited, of course it was because their presence was too threatening. Allen must have known that he would probably lose his say in the process. Therefore, their state at the beginning of the game is to examine the newcomers, confirm that the newcomers are not a threat, and then continue to recruit and strengthen this group. Of course, they do not rule out directly eliminating newcomers who are not smart enough. They need people to rotate, but not too many people to share the spoils.
A small number of people in this group now may know nothing about Allen's plan, and they are just a minority obeying the majority.
"It's not just some supplies." Abe raised a finger, "What if there are so many supplies in every round."
Simmons was startled when he heard this.
Materials, as rewards to players, are of course portable, which means that used items taken away by players will not be refreshed in place like other room props. If, as Abe guessed, the props collected each time are retained, and at the same time, new props will be generated in each round for players to collect, then this will be a very huge amount of supplies.
Maybe this is the reward of this game. Although it is difficult to pass the level, the longer the players stay here, the more things they get. As long as they can finally pass the level, they will have rich harvests.
Simmons had never thought of this possibility. Maybe he could figure it out when he discovered the map, but it was impossible to have such an idea before he got the clues.
However, Abe was able to take this speculation to look for corresponding clues, and finally found the treasure map.
The reason why she had such a conjecture came from the words and deeds of Allen and the others. With their lives at stake, these people don't seem that eager to find answers. During the first round when she arrived, they were actually planning to hold a meeting in the room to discuss an answer, and "courteously" gave them the study, a place with a lot of information, instead of desperately searching for clues to survive.
Normally, the longer people stay in a long-term closed and depressive environment, the crazier they become, but none of them are crazy, and even the people who were selected to answer the questions have no intention of temporarily regretting their escape. This is contrary to human nature, and it is also the starting point for Abe to discover their weirdness.
She said: "Only in this case, they will need a lot of people to find the 'treasure'."
"So he already knew how to clear the customs, and he only stayed here for the supplies?"
When the doll was about to wake up, everyone returned to the bedroom.
This time, Allen and the others came back slower. He glanced around the room and saw Abe and Simmons already standing in the room. He walked to them and asked casually, "Why did you leave just now?"
"There really weren't any clues in that room, so we went to look elsewhere." Simmons put his hands in his pockets with a casual expression, "Why, we don't need to report it to you, right?"
Allen's eyelids twitched and he smiled gently, "Of course not. Have you found any useful clues?"
"Not yet." Simmons shrugged, "So in the second round, I'll ask you to send someone to answer the question, and in the third round, let us do it. How about that?"
These words seemed to be to cooperate with them, but in fact they directly rejected the obligation to answer the question this time, and also took away the right to answer the next round. But because of this, Allen had no way to refute.
After all, even though he himself may not be able to instigate these two people, the other party has expressed his willingness to help. But there is a difference between passively answering questions and actively requesting the right to answer questions. Allen knew very well that they must have got some useful clues, but they were not prepared to share them.
Although Simmons looks timid and timid in front of Abe, his aura is not inferior at all when meeting other players. Unlike Allen who likes to start with polite words, he is a general as soon as he opens his mouth.
Both sides had their own agendas and did not exchange information as "friendly" as in the first round. When the doll woke up, Allen pushed someone up to answer.
Of course, that person was unwilling in every possible way. After seeing the tragic consequences of answering questions in the last round, no one wanted to be the "scapegoat". However, as Abe thought, even if he was unwilling, he did not run away in the end, but still lingered. Stepping forward slowly. Of course, his answer did not break this weird cycle of wrong choices.
Fortunately, perhaps as Abe said, after the doll exploded the anger accumulated in the previous round, this round became much more "gentle".
He was beaten to death by a doll with a toy hammer, but still survived.
Soon, the pre-plot of the third round began. This time, two new players came. Under the watchful eyes of Abe and the others, Allen seemed not to be ready to test the newcomers' skills anymore. Therefore, under the indifference of the old players, In this attitude, the new players stood in the team tremblingly, following everyone through the plot in confusion. They were also dressed in long skirts like dolls and fed all kinds of weird food.
When the doll started asking questions, other players began to communicate in low voices, and occasionally glanced at the new player.
If this had happened before, the new players would have been asked to come forward to answer the question, but after experiencing the violent round of the doll, they did not dare to continue to let the doll accumulate anger like this.
Allen suddenly stood up and told everyone that Abe and the others would answer this round. Many people had strange expressions upon hearing this, and some even asked directly: "Why?"
Simmons smiled half-heartedly and only asked: "Why? Why didn't you ask why it was them when someone answered the question in the first two rounds? When it's our turn to answer the question, you have to ask 'why'. Do you want to answer the question yourself, or... Do you have a special relationship with those two people?"
The surroundings were suddenly quiet for a second. Allen's heart skipped a beat before he stepped forward and said, "I just mentioned it too early. He probably wants to find clues first and then decide who will answer the question..."
Several people here were "tearing apart", but the doll who walked to the bed to prepare to sleep was stopped again.
"I'll answer you now, okay?" Abe's soft voice sounded behind her.
The doll turned to look at her: "What's your answer?"
The arguments over there suddenly disappeared during this question and answer. Allen's face was gloomy and clear for a while, but soon became warm again, leaving only a bit of surprise in his eyes. It seemed that he didn't expect that Abe would answer the question early.
Abe: "I want you to tell your mother the truth now."
The doll looked at her strangely, "But mom is not at home, how should I tell her?"
"You can call her and tell her."
Obviously, there is a phone in the living room.
The doll did not answer immediately. It paused for a long time, so long that people thought its sentence was a rhetorical question rather than a real question. Then it suddenly raised the corners of its mouth and smiled: "This is really a good idea."
The doll went to the living room.
The atmosphere in the room was still solemn, more so than the previous two times.
Allen looked at Abe deeply, "Are you sure this method works? Once it fails, not only will you be punished, but we will lose precious rest time, and we will not be able to get any useful information in this round."
Abe's "answer" undoubtedly shortened the entire game process, especially the time to collect information, which is the most important part of the game.
Surprisingly, Otto suddenly sneered: "You can choose to do it or not at this time. Doesn't it mean that this is a trap of game design in itself?"
"...What?" Allen couldn't follow his train of thought for a moment.
Abe had already picked up what Ott said, "He tested the doll in the first round. He broke the established flow of the game and answered the questions before the doll went to sleep, and the doll allowed him to do this." She pointed. zhi\'t
"The rules of the game allow it. Human beings have blind spots in thinking. Is there any better answer than this?" Otto smiled meaningfully.
Abe: "The doll said 'never make mommy angry', not to remind us how serious the consequences of this matter are, but to tell us the conditions for achieving the goal - never make mommy angry. Because when mommy is angry, The game will fail."
Otto: "The key to cracking this level is time."
Abby: "Mom said not to lie, so telling her the truth before she gets angry is the answer."
There are only two times when the doll can tell its mother about breaking the crystal cup, one is after waking up and the other is before falling asleep. There are only two times when the mother can listen to the doll talking, one is after the date and the other is before the date.
From the clues in these rooms, it can be seen that the mother is troubled by the recent design. It is very likely that her meetings with people and work will not go well, and she will be angry because of it. Then tell her before she gets angry, which is before her date, which is before the doll falls asleep. The answer they gave the doll didn't matter; what mattered was that they told her the answer at the right time.
The two of them solved the problem by saying something to each other, and all the contestants present were stunned. There are also some players who, like the newcomers, cannot keep up with the speed and look confused.
Simmons is one of them.
He looked at this and that blankly, wondering when the two people had a tacit understanding
Happy cheers came from the doll outside the door. Then the phone was hung up with a click, and a voice ran all the way from the living room back to the room.
The doll opened her bedroom door, letting the mid-afternoon light flood into the room, and announced happily, "Mommy forgives me!"
"She said she was glad I told her the truth. She wanted to cancel the date because of me and go home to comfort her little baby. Oh, it's all because of you, my little cuties!"
"Come on, follow me to the living room to welcome mom back."
It actually succeeded? !
Everyone saw the hope of passing the customs, as if they were infected by the doll, and their faces showed excitement.
When they rushed to the living room, Allen was the only one who walked at the end. The moment the shadow of the door frame passed by, a mocking smile appeared on his face.
The author has something to say: This time it has been a long time, there are too many things to do, plus the period, I feel that my energy has been drained, so I gave myself more time off to rest on the weekend.
Originally there were a thousand more words, but I wanted to adjust the order of telling the story, so I put them later.
The next step for the company is the interview, and I may have to do some work, but it won't be too much (and I don't know if I'm poisoned). I didn’t update a single word last week, so I hope I can update you a little more this week.
Recently, I’ve been wanting to write a pure sweet short story (free of charge). I’ve been writing about Beibei for too long, and there haven’t been many emotional scenes. I really want to write about some sweet love. Just thinking about it.
