Nanyuan Community is about to be demolished. There are not many residents nearby. Even if there are, many have been moved out one after another. Only Qian Guobin and his wife are left on the seventh floor.
Qian Guobin is an ordinary company clerk. He usually wears a pair of glasses and looks polite. He never conflicts with anyone, and never gets jealous with anyone. He is as indifferent as a bowl of boiled water, and as ordinary as a grain of dust, unable to attract any attention.
Such a boring temperament will inevitably annoy people, not to mention the wife he spends day and night with. Before that, the neighbors knew that Qian Guobin's wife had cuckolded him.
It was raining outside, and the house became increasingly dull and gloomy. The incandescent lamp above the head had not been replaced for a long time, and the light flickered, making people dizzy.
Qian Guobin sat and smoked under such an uncertain light. He usually doesn't like to smoke, but now there are piles of cigarette butts at his feet, and his eyes are bloodshot from exhaustion. There was a stack of photo frames on the coffee table in front of her. On the photo was a pair of beautiful people wearing wedding dresses, smiling like flowers.
The man is Qian Guobin, and the woman is the pregnant woman who died.
They are a couple, to be precise, a couple who are about to divorce.
But no one knew about the divorce, not even the police. Just like they couldn't guess that a man would cruelly hit his pregnant wife to death.
Qian Guobin crushed the cigarette butt on the sofa and exhaled slowly. Although his face was expressionless, there was a boundless haze in his eyes: That wanton woman deserves to die, and so does the bastard in her belly. They all deserve to die...
All deserve to die...
The cigarette burned a hole in the sofa, and the burnt smell was pungent. Qian Guobin was lost in thought when he suddenly heard a knock on the door from outside. He couldn't help but frowned: "Who?!"
Separated by a door, nearly twenty people were quietly hiding in the corridor, staring intently at the door of Qian Guobin's house, as if the police were dispatched to arrest the suspect. But not only to win this game, but also to catch the perpetrator with a human face and a beast heart.
Shen Zuixing was about to say that he was a member of the community sending warmth, but before he could speak, Jiang Weimian covered his mouth with great foresight: "I am from the property management company downstairs, and I want to talk to you about the demolition."
When Jiang Weimian came up, he saw a notice posted in the corridor, and he guessed that this old community would be demolished. When Qian Guobin heard this, he had no doubts. After a moment of hesitation, he stood up and opened the door.
"Click—"
He just opened the door with his front foot, and was instantly startled when he saw the scene outside the door clearly with his back foot. I saw more than twenty people crowded in front of his house. The man in the lead had a stern face and sharp eyes, which made people sweat on their backs.
Qian Guobin reacted and was about to close the door immediately, but Jiang Weimian quickly put his foot on the threshold and held the door handle tightly. Qian Guobin frowned, sweat was already visible on his forehead: "Who are you! It is against the law to break into private houses!"
Shen Zuixing leaned against the wall, lowered his head and twirled his nails boredly: "Oh, it's so rare that you still know how to break the law."
Jiang Weimian asked expressionlessly: "Mr. Qian, is that black PST in the parking garage downstairs your car? Can you ask me what the license plate number is?"
When Qian Guobin heard him mention the car in the underground garage, his expression changed slightly, and all his strength was suddenly drained. He thought the police had come to the door: "I don't know what the license plate number is. You guys leave quickly, leave quickly!"
After he finished speaking, he tried hard to close the door, but Wang Dabiao was impatient and kicked the door open: "Fuck you, grandma! You killed someone and you dared to let us go. I will take you there now." Police station! Go!”
After saying this, he immediately grabbed the person out of the room and dragged him towards the elevator. Seeing this, the other players pressed the elevator button and followed him downstairs. Fortunately, this complex has three elevators, which can barely accommodate these twenty people.
Qian Duoduo unzipped his schoolbag and dug through it, and then directly took out a bundle of rope in full view of everyone: "Brother Xiao Jiang! Let's tie up this person and throw him to the police station!"
Jiang Weimian glanced at him in surprise: "Where did you get the rope?"
Qian Duoduo scratched his head: "This is the skipping rope I use for physical education class."
"Hey, the future flower of our motherland, you have quite a lot of equipment."
Chen Zuixing directly pulled the rope from Ji's hand, tied Qian Guobin's hand twice, and tied it with a tight knot. Qian Guobin saw that they neither looked like police nor robbery, so he trembled and asked: "You... who are you?! What do you want to do?!"
Jiang Weimian didn't say anything, and Shen Zuixing didn't even bother to talk to the murderer. Only Qian Duoduo couldn't conceal his true nature as a middle-aged boy. He clenched his fists and said with a serious face: "We are little fighters against gangs and evil! You have been arrested. It's best to just let it go now!"
"puff-"
There was a burst of laughter in the elevator, and the other players turned their heads and couldn't help laughing. He is also a little fighter who fights against gangs and eliminates evil. Qian Duoduo must have watched too many cartoons when he was a child. Why is he so good at it
Seeing that the elevator had reached the first floor, everyone got out of the elevator one after another. The captain of Team 8 patted Jiang Weimian on the shoulder and said: "Our mission is completed, we will withdraw first. I will leave this person to you and take him to the police station."
The other teams didn't say anything when they saw this, and they probably had the same idea. Anyway, they rushed over to help from the beginning, and they didn't expect to take the credit. What's more, the information about the perpetrator was originally sent by Jiang Weimian. Without Jiang Weimian, they would not be able to catch the person. Upon seeing this, everyone waved their hands and planned to leave.
"Team Idiot, I let you get an advantage this time. If we meet again next time, we won't let you go."
"I wish you can reach the final level as soon as possible and see you again."
"It should be a wish that all of us can reach the final level as soon as possible and leave this game. If there is a chance to meet in the real world, I will treat everyone to a drink!"
"Hey, I remember what you look like, so don't even think about reneging on your debt."
A group of them walked out of the building laughing, even though they knew very well that there were too many variables in this game, and if they said goodbye today, it would probably be the last time they saw each other.
Jiang Weimian didn't know how the game would determine who assigned the mission. The vehicle responsible for the accident was discovered by Team 8 first, and everyone caught the criminal together. It's hard to tell the truth. But in the end, they all felt guilty.
Jiang Weimian stepped down the steps and subconsciously looked up at the sky, only to see a ray of skylight slowly break through the thick clouds and cut through the dark night sky. A hint of fish belly white has appeared in the distant sky, and the torrential rain last night has gradually stopped, leaving only a trace of water on the ground.
Its daybreak…
The time happened to be at seven o'clock in the morning. As if a switch had been pressed, the game prompt suddenly sounded in the sky, echoing in everyone's ears:
Ding! Congratulations to all players, you have successfully passed the intermediate level trial. After verification of the rules, a total of 302 players participated in this mission, and all are allowed to advance to the final level together. There is still one hour left before the end of the game. After one hour, the next level will be automatically transferred to you by default. I wish you success in passing the level.
When the last word of the game fell, everyone was in disbelief and looked at the sky in surprise. They thought that only one team could win the game mission, but it turned out that as long as they participated in the assistance, the mission would be considered a success
Jiang Weimian was even more surprised. He didn't expect that the game's judgment rules would be like this. It turns out that as long as all the teams work together to solve the case and find the murderer, everyone can advance. But before that, everyone regarded this as a life-and-death fight. It was too late to eliminate the opponent, so how could they cooperate together, so no one discovered this almost bug-like rule.
Jiang Weimian frowned and said to himself: "It's like this..."
That’s how it turns out…
In fact, there are many players who do not need to be wiped out, but too many people are blinded by survival and would rather trample their opponents under their feet than cooperate together.
When he was taking the exam at Yunhai High School, Jiang Weimian once leaked the answer to Shen Zuixing and the others, and the game did not stop him. When answering questions on the highway, Jiang Weimian sent the answer to the player dialogue group, and the game did not call him a foul. Perhaps from the beginning, the only thing this game wanted to tell them was "cooperation".
Only by cooperating to solve the case can everyone survive, otherwise they will be wiped out.
Are those questions difficult? Disaster.
Are those tasks tricky? Tricky.
But if there are thousands of people together, there will always be one who knows the answer, and there will always be a day when the truth is found out. Too many people are too preoccupied with themselves and ignore this.
This game represents the ultimate good and the ultimate evil, but at a certain moment it reaches a delicate balance.
But unfortunately, Jiang Weimian still couldn't remember the plot. He closed his eyes and tried his best to remember something, but in the next second, Shen Zuixing suddenly crooked him with his arm, and his tone was alert: "Listen, is there any sound?"
Jiang Weimian listened carefully for a moment, and his expression suddenly became subtle. He Man and Qian Duoduo were like cats with fried hair, almost jumping up from the ground, and said to everyone in a panic: "No! It's the sound of the siren, let's run!"
"Fuck! It's the police again!"
When Wang Dabiao heard this, he looked around and found an iron gate next to him, so he immediately climbed over the wall and ran out. The last thing he wanted to do in his life was the police station. Every time he was interrogated for a long time because he looked like a gangster, he already had a psychological shadow.
Jiang Weimian subconsciously said: "What about the perpetrator?"
Shen Zuixing dragged him to the back door and said, "What are you afraid of? You can't throw someone away after being tied up. They will find out when the police come, so run away!"
Qian Duoduo didn't know what he thought of, so he suddenly opened his schoolbag, took out a notebook from it, hurriedly wrote a line of words with a pen, then tore off the paper and pasted it on Qian Guobin's back with transparent tape, then he clapped his hands with satisfaction and said : "That's enough, Sister Xiao He, let's run away!"
The other players looked at each other in confusion, not yet understanding the situation: "The police are here, why are you running?"
He Man was climbing over the wall with Qian Duoduo. Hearing this, he turned around and shouted to them: "If you don't want to be caught as a car thief like the undersea column, you should run away!"
At this time, the police car had already entered the community, and the other players came to their senses after seeing this, and jumped over the wall and ran out of the community. Qian Guobin was left lying alone on the ground, squirming like a caterpillar, shouting for help.
A group of police officers quickly opened the car doors and got out of the car, and rushed to the underground garage. When the leading police officer saw a group of people climbing over the wall, his complexion changed slightly, and he immediately sent his men to chase him. He then found Qian Guobin tied into a rice dumpling on the ground. He turned the person over and was about to untie him, but saw a piece of paper taped behind his back. , with a row of scrawled words written on it—
He is the person who killed the pregnant woman.
The word "Zhao" for "perpetrator" was too difficult to write. Qian Duoduo couldn't remember it after thinking about it for a long time, so he could only scratch his head and replace it with the word "Zhao".
The police officer picked up the piece of paper and frowned. He couldn't help but think of the traffic accident case that caused a lot of fuss today. While he was lost in thought, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder: "Old Ye, why are you so dazed? Hurry up and untie me."
After hearing this, Officer Ye slowly came to his senses and quickly let go of Qian Guobin. If Jiang Weimian and others were here, they would definitely recognize the police officer Ye in front of them as the man who arrested them three times in the novice pass.
The showers have just stopped, and the ground is full of water. Jiang Weimian and others ran wildly on the street, but they did not dare to stop for fear of being caught up by the police. At first, it was Shen Zuixing who dragged Jiang Weimian away, but later when he lost the strength, it was Jiang Weimian who dragged him away.
The moist and cool wind blew past their ears, and the treetops trembled and dropped raindrops, which happened to fall on the path they ran on. For some reason, Jiang Weimian suddenly turned around and glanced at Shen Zuixing, only to see that his dark hair was messed up by the wind, his eyebrows were curved with a smile, and he had a bit of a clean and clear youthful air.
That familiar feeling emerged from the bottom of my heart again, and was finally suppressed by Jiang Weimian. He saw an Internet cafe in front of him, and he didn't know what he thought of. He suddenly pulled Shen Zuixing and stopped in front of the Internet cafe.
When Wang Dabiao and others saw this, they also stopped and said out of breath: "Jiang Weimian, how about... how about we go in and hide?"
They couldn't run anymore.
Jiang Weimian hummed: "Go in and sit for a while."
After he finished speaking, he pulled Shen Zuixing into the Internet cafe, only to find that the environment seemed familiar. It was the same one they had visited yesterday. The boss was dozing off at the front desk. Suddenly he saw the five of them coming in. He subconsciously sat up straight with disgust in his eyes, and five bright characters written on his face -
Why are you Tieji Roosters here again? !
Jiang Weimian coughed lowly and touched the money in his pocket: "Boss, I'll buy one... Forget it, I'll buy five computers and run them for an hour."
After Jiang Weimian said that, he paid ten yuan at the front desk, borrowed a data cable from the boss, and found a seat inside with Shen Zuixing.
Chen Zuixing unconsciously touched his wrist that was held by Jiang Weimian, feeling a little itchy for no reason. He fell on the chair without sitting still and asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Jiang Weimian didn't want to do anything. He just suddenly remembered that there was something on his phone that might come in handy. He logged into the news website, registered a virtual account, and then uploaded the accident process that he had previously recorded with his mobile phone to his computer. He used his authorship as an author and added a very eye-catching title -
"Husband kills pregnant wife while driving, dumps body on highway late at night"
Is it the distortion of human nature or the loss of morality? !
Shen Zuixing stared for a few seconds before realizing what Jiang Weimian was doing. After seeing the title clearly, he held his stomach and laughed so hard that he hit the table and even shed tears.
Jiang Weimian usually looks like a dog and doesn't smile. How on earth did he type such a ridiculous title with an expressionless face? !
"Jiang Weimian, you are so vulgar! How can you be so vulgar!"
Chen Zuixing laughed so hard that he slumped down on his chair, his usually bright eyes filled with tears. He poked Jiang Weimian's arm with his fingertips: "Are you stupid for writing? No one will read such vulgar things."
Jiang Weimian looked at him in confusion when he heard this: "How do you know I write a book?"
Chen Zuixing propped his head and raised his eyebrows: "You told us yourself, and you forgot again?"
Jiang Weimian indeed forgot, his memory has never been very good. There was not much time left before the end of the game, so he had been sitting in front of the computer refreshing the comments with his mouse. The Zhou Lihu accident case has become very popular recently, and related videos are being pushed to the front page. Not long after Jiang Weimian posted the video, the number of viewers skyrocketed, and it quickly became the most popular video.
When netizens saw this video, their first reaction was shock, and their second reaction was disbelief? ! However, the video did not show any traces of Photoshop. Even the red light truck that appeared in it was completely matched with the car driven by Zhou Lihu. The situation suddenly took a two-level reversal. Even the police heard the news and saw the video, and immediately asked the technical department to search the source of the video to verify its authenticity.
After Jiang Weimian finished all this, he yawned slowly and fell on the chair to get some sleep. He turned his head to look at Chen Zuixing, and while half asleep, he murmured and asked: "Chen Zuixing... have I seen you before...?"
Chen Zuixing did not answer. He just stared at Jiang Weimian quietly. After a moment, he smiled and whispered: "Go to sleep."
He said: "Jiang Weimian, there is only the last level left."
