Jigsaw quietly looked at the monitoring screens in front of him.
He has experienced strong winds and waves, enough to quickly calm down in the face of such an accident, but this does not mean that he is not shocked.
There are a total of three cameras installed in every corner of the room, and no matter what angle you look at, the "that thing" that suddenly appeared in the pool is far beyond his cognition.
John Kramer, over half a century later, became a "jigsaw puzzle killer" wanted by the police with his sophisticated and brutal killing device. But his body was still eroded by the disease, and now he became weaker and weaker.
He just feels pain in his heart now.
"What's that?" he heard himself ask.
Lin You: "Uh..."
"She doesn't seem very happy to hear you say 'what' she is," she translated, watching the water ghost keep gesticulating at her before disappearing, "I strongly urge you to ask 'who'."
In the middle of the TV screen in the corner, the Billy puppet who had been staring blankly at the camera for a long time finally reacted, its jaw dropped, "... who is that?"
In a sense, remembering to control the puppets at this time is also quite professional.
"I asked you if you can use any method, and I asked twice, and you agreed." Lin You said in a very innocent tone, "I thought I would specialize in surgery, so I found a helper Come here—see, isn't it particularly efficient!"
... God damn art has a specialization.
The mechanism that was worked so hard was not even used for a single bit, and was held on his head by a pot, Jigsaw felt that his eyes were going black for a while. His world view was once again rubbed by what happened before his eyes, and his temples were throbbing.
Coughing twice while suppressing his voice, Jigsaw turned his attention to the button at hand. Most of the devices are under his control, including the collar that snaps around the opponent's neck.
Instead of waiting for forty minutes—it was thirty-seven minutes now—the countdown was over, if he just pressed the button now, the needle buried in the collar would instantly pierce the carotid artery and inject tetrodotoxin, and he could end it all.
John raised his hand, but it stopped hovering over the button.
This is not in line with his original intention.
And, as she said, he had given her permission to use any means she could imagine. The reason for such a result lies in—
"You're not 'Susie'," he said.
"I am," Lin You said, and she sat down on the ground casually, observing the position of the camera.
Behind her was the iron ball that had just been unloaded, and the pool next to it was still being heated, and there were slight bubbles rising from the water floor.
"But it's not the 'Susie' you know. You should have investigated her background to see if she can do what I just did. As for who I am, you can regard me as a possession by chance to the guy on her."
"Possessed"—the word irritated John's crumbling worldview, and he could almost hear it cracking. His reason told him it was impossible, but what he saw with his own eyes refuted his reason.
"So, what she did has nothing to do with me."
Lin You shrugged, "Let me go now, it's good for everyone."
The condition for customs clearance must be to successfully survive the trial, but correspondingly, if you can fool Jigsaw to nod her and let her go, this is also a way of "surviving".
The puppet on the TV was silent for a few seconds, and when it spoke again, it flatly rejected her proposal.
"No."
it says.
"Now I can't prove that you have nothing to do with 'Susie', let me know that you are worthy of living, and this door is one-way, you have to pass the remaining two tests to get the key from here go out."
Well, anyway, Lin You doesn't care.
"I'm going to add one more condition."
When she got up, she heard Billy who was under the control of the jigsaw say again: "Don't ask another guy to replace you like this level, you have to complete every step by yourself, otherwise I will directly let the collar inject poison .”
"Okay," Lin You readily agreed, "No problem."
After all, her life is in the hands of others. Although she can directly find the ghost to attack the jigsaw, but the speed of the other party's poison injection must be faster. On her side, she didn't know if the epidemic doctor could be drawn out, or she had better listen to him for the time being.
She wasn't scared anyway.
"So, where is the next level?"
Jigsaw was silent for a moment.
"You're right across from that door."
The pool was already bubbling with boiling bubbles, and Lin You felt that the scorching water vapor was about to steam him when he walked around the side.
She saw a small piece of newspaper taped to the wall.
It was a piece of news that was less than the size of a palm, and the text on it was very clear. It said that a drowned boy was found on the bank of the river on a certain day in a certain year.
Thinking about what Jigsaw said, Lin You could easily guess the truth—the original "Susie" condemned those who stood by when others were in danger, but she did nothing to save the boy, causing the boy to drown.
So the first level of the jigsaw is to let her experience the pain of struggling and suffocating in the water, while the water temperature is still rising sharply. Cooked alive is a more likely outcome than finding the key.
It's just that the water ghost messed up the yellow.
Lin You pushed open the door in front of her and walked in. This door, like the previous one, closed automatically behind her.
A prison-like iron fence lay in front of him.
There is nearly half a person's width between the railings, but it is very difficult for people to squeeze through sideways.
The room is divided into two halves by the iron fence, behind which is a device similar to a balance. It is said to be a balance, but there is only one side of the weighing pan, and the other side is connected to the ceiling.
Under the fastening of layers of metal plates and metal rods, a key hangs above the head. It looks right in front of you, but the height is out of reach even if you step on the table.
However, there are no tables here either.
The railing is on the other side of her side, and there are only small stainless steel plates placed against the railing. In the center of the plate is a thin and sharp dagger.
"I said, 'You'—Susie," this time there was no TV, and the sound of the jigsaw came from the speaker in the corner of the ceiling, "I have done research on the TTX toxin, but who is the real author? ?”
"Since you have stolen your friend's results, you have to pay the corresponding price. She always claims to be righteous, but never examines what she is doing in secret. The punishment I arranged for her is to add weight to the weighing pan on the other side of the fence. Whether you Could it be that Susie, standing here, has to do the same thing to get the second key."
"How heavy do you want to put?" Lin You asked.
"Exactly the weight of a hand."
Jigsaw replied.
"If you want to top it off with that plate and knife, it's definitely not enough."
His intentions are obvious. There are only these two things in this room, and it is implied that she wants to let her cut the flesh from her body bit by bit until she meets the weight that can tilt the "scale".
Or even more simply, just cut off a hand cruelly.
Lin You walked over, she stood in front of the railing, and stretched out her hand to test the width of the gap between the railings.
He bent down to pick up the knife again, and tried to draw it on his wrist.
Just when Jigsaw thought she was going to cut at him, she saw her looking sideways at the surveillance camera, as if smiling at him on the screen.
"Bang!"
? ! ! !
Jigsaw stood up from the chair abruptly, and the sudden violent movement made his already weak body unable to breathe for a moment. After taking two deep breaths, he fixed his eyes on the iron ball that fell into the weighing pan.
"..." he asked, "When did you bring it here?"
He clearly saw that she let her in with empty hands—but looking back, he was still in the shock caused by the shock of his three views, as if he really didn't notice when the iron chain was taken off the edge of the pool gone.
"Don't worry about this, anyway, you didn't say no."
Of course, while sitting down, she paid attention to the direction of the camera, blocked the iron ball with her body, and put it in her backpack.
Originally, I was planning to use it to smash something, but I didn't expect it to come in handy here.
The weight of ten kilograms of iron balls is too much, firmly pressing the weighing pan to the bottom.
Lin You heard the sound of the machine turning spontaneously after being touched, and looked back to see the key hanging above it slowly lowering. When it fell within her reach, she immediately reached out and grabbed it, and inserted it into the keyhole in the middle without any hindrance.
She gave it a straight twist.
"Click."
With the same crisp sound as before, the second lock was also opened. However, when Lin You turned her head again, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
She thought about it, stretched her hand over the railing again, and pushed towards the ball on the weighing pan.
The iron ball fell to the ground with a bang.
… the weighing pan is not restored.
It was probably broken somewhere because of the sudden jerk, so she tried to dial again—
Holding the weighing pan with the neatly broken end in her hand, Lin You was silent for a moment.
"I'm sorry," she said, "for breaking your mechanism."
Jigsaw: "..."
He was wearing a long black and red coat, with a hood covering his entire head. At this moment, he buried his expressionless face in his palms, and let out a long, long breath.
He was really black before his eyes.
"It's over," he said.
Lin You: "...?"
"This is over!" Jigsaw said, he had to take a deep breath to calm down because of the rare agitation, he calmed down, "Now, put down the things in your hands, don't touch anything, and go to the next room !"
If you don't take it, don't take it, why are you so fierce.
According to his request, Lin You put all the things back, Qi Erping raised his hands, and walked to the door he mentioned.
I always feel that the other party is eager to end this mutual torture with her.
"Then can I open the door?" Given his request not to touch anything, she asked very self-consciously.
Jigsaw: "…"
He drives!
This time she didn't need to do anything, the wooden door opened slowly under the action of the mechanism.
Lin You found that the ceiling behind the door was much lower than those of the previous rooms. It was almost the kind that could be reached by standing on tiptoes and straightening your arms, only a palm length away.
With a "snap", the sudden bright light on her face made her close her eyes reflexively.
After finally opening her eyes gradually, because the light was too strong, Lin You had to glance upwards from the corner of her eye, and saw that the top was covered with strong lights.
Not just glaring.
This is probably the kind of heating bulb, so close, you can feel the heat radiating to your face after a while.
"This is the last hurdle."
Jigsaw said, "I've modified them, and thirty minutes is enough to dehydrate you. The switch to turn off these lights is behind the lock over there, but the key to unlock the lock is hidden in one of the bulbs."
Is this going to pick hot bulbs one by one with bare hands
However, asking her to turn off the lights... Lin You thought, there might be something else in it.
She remembered a quote from Jigsaw.
—"She always claims to be righteous, but she never examines what she is doing in secret."
This should not have been mentioned inadvertently.
Examine yourself
in the dark
She saw a small safe in the corner and suddenly understood.
Well, besides not being roasted to death, there is another reason to turn off the light.
No wonder Jigsaw asked her to throw all her things in the last room, for fear that she would come again.
But who said it wouldn't work without that
Lin You raised her hand, and a card popped into her hand from the suddenly opened illustrated book.
She looked at the card and raised her eyebrows.
— just right.
"Don't forget what I said," Jigsaw warned, seeing her movement now, "if you let—"
"Don't worry, I remember."
Lin You said lightly, "Just remember what you said."
Jigsaw: "???"
The card fell to the ground, and the murderer with a strange smile on his face appeared in front of him in an instant.
"Don't move," Lin You snatched the ax he was holding, "Bring it here."
SMILE: "... "
He watched blankly as his new, barely warmed ax changed hands. Lin You weighed his weight, took two steps back, and swung straight up—
With a "crash", most of the light bulbs above her head went out.
All the shards of glass smashed by the ax fell to the ground, and Lin You kicked them with her toes, randomly gathering them into a pile.
Jigsaw: "……………"
"I didn't let him do it," Lin You declared, "Every step of smashing the light bulb was done by myself. You only stipulated these two."
Jigsaw leaned back slowly on the chair back, took a deep breath, and took another deep breath.
He is principled, and he has to admit what he says even if he bites the bullet.
"Yes," he said, "I did."
With his words as a guarantee, Lin You swung the ax again. SMILE stared blankly at the side, seeing that she broke most of the light bulbs a few times, and the room immediately became dark.
Tilting her head again to avoid the glass shards of the light bulb, Lin You clearly saw a copper key with the length of a pinky finger falling into the pile of broken glass.
But now I don't need it either.
She blocked it with her shoes and swept the pile aside.
Now the room is mostly dark, Lin You observes herself from top to bottom.
Jigsaw said it almost literally, the last key to the collar around her neck was in the safe, and the combination of the safe—
It should be on her own body.
After scanning back and forth, Lin You finally saw a little yellow on the back of her hand.
She froze for a moment, realizing that her thoughts had gone astray, and her first reaction was to look at a place that was less likely to be found, and instead forgot the back of her hand.
The numbers on the back of his left hand glow faintly in the dark.
—62442.
Lin You stared at the string of numbers.
If you change someone, if you really listened to the jigsaw in the last level, you will definitely choose to cut off your non-dominant hand in order to preserve your dominant hand.
She is right-handed, and the numbers are marked on the back of her left hand. If he loses his left hand at this time, it means that he can't find the last password, and he can only stay in this room and wait to die.
Think about the first level again, asking her to go into the water to find the key. If the paint isn't waterproof—
Lin You shook her head, not thinking about it anymore.
Anyway, she won.
She turned the string of numbers to the dial of the safe, and the lock bolt of the box door popped open, and there was indeed a key that was about the same size as the two she used before.
Lin You inserted it into the last keyhole.
This time it wasn't just a light slam to unlock the lock. The collar popped open from the middle, and Lin You took off the collar, and saw a small needle point on the inside.
Throwing it into the pile of glass shards, she handed the ax back to SMILE, who then disappeared with the ax in her arms.
It was at this time that only a "squeak" was heard.
Lin You suddenly turned around.
A secret door opened.
The camouflage was done so well that even under such strong light, she didn't notice its existence. But right now, it's just so wide open.
Only the slight sound of metal rubbing was heard, and Billy the Puppet appeared wearing a small suit and pedaling his red tricycle.
"Uh," Lin You asked, "you finally changed your mind and are going to give the puppet to me?"
Also has home delivery.
Jigsaw: "…"
Billy stopped pedaling the tricycle.
"No," the jigsaw voice angrily refused from the loudspeaker attached to its chest, "this is just a routine session."
Even if there were so many mistakes in the middle, and the style of painting deviated so much, it was his last insistence to do this at the end of the game.
"congratulations."
The puppet opened and closed its mouth as it rode forward, and its smooth white face made people's spines tremble in the darkness, "You are still alive."
It kicked its two legs slowly, and its stiff upper body swayed accordingly.
Lin You: "Then what—"
"You," Billy's eyes were red, and just by looking at it, he seemed to be able to see how angry the jigsaw is now, "listen to me."
Lin You: "..."
All right, she shut up.
"Most people live without gratitude."
Seeing that she was quiet, Billy continued to push the small tricycle forward, "But you—"
The sound of the jigsaw stopped.
The puppet suddenly couldn't pedal the bicycle anymore. Lin You watched Billy's leg move forward and tried it again, but it still didn't move.
The scarlet eye with the pinhole camera turned downwards, so the jigsaw on the other side of the screen also saw—
A shard of glass that slipped through the sidelines got embedded in the tire of the bicycle, and when it kicked off again, it penetrated even deeper.
The front tires of the tricycle slowly deflated under their gaze.
Probably remembering something, the puppet raised its head and looked at Lin You.
"I wanted to remind you."
Meeting its gaze, the latter spread his hands, "You didn't let me say that."
