Unconventional Escape Game

Chapter 4

Views:

It didn't take Ye Xu too much time to explore the cruise ship. Although the cruise ship is huge, half a day is enough for Ye Xu to explore the place to explore. After all, he only needs to walk in the corridor, and does not need to enter every room.

Referring to the map on the brochure in the room, Ye Xu quickly wrote down the location of each entertainment facility, but he didn't recklessly go directly into the entertainment venue to check. There should be danger in these places, it is better not to enter or not to enter.

In the afternoon, Ye Xu returned to his room, found a pen, and circled several entertainment facilities from the list.

These are the ones he guessed that players should experience within ten days, including duty-free shops, gyms, cinemas, etc.

As a common scene in horror novels, it goes without saying that movie theaters are of course. The gym is a place where accidental injuries are frequent, and it is a very suitable place for players to "accidentally die". The duty-free shop corresponds to the meager 500 yuan in their hands. Since the money is given, it must be spent.

This cruise trip forced them to experience the project because the project was dangerous or there were traps in the project.

Ye Xu carefully memorized the locations of the several places he deduced, as well as any suitable hiding places nearby, in case of emergencies. After doing this, the sky will be dark and night will come.

In order to avoid walking outside at night, Ye Xu hurriedly took the meal ticket to the nearest restaurant and settled the dinner.

He didn't know if there would be unforeseen dangers on the cruise ship at night, but the room was definitely safer than the seemingly resplendent corridor outside. In the past, he also participated in the world of games and had his own room. And that experience told him that as long as he did what the rules stipulated, then he was absolutely safe in his room.

Not long after Ye Xu returned to his room, it was completely dark. Ye Xu looked at his watch, and couldn't fall asleep right now, thinking that he didn't have time to search the room thoroughly before, so he decided to start searching now.

The luggage that the game prepares for the player is just a pitifully small backpack, which contains a watch that has been dug out before, a diary, and two sets of clothes.

Ye Xu sorted out the clothes and hung them up. This is a set of casual clothes and a set of dresses, indicating what ceremonies or parties they might participate in later. There were only a few casual records in the diary, followed by a large section of blank pages, but in the only few times, some dispensable background information was provided to Ye Xu.

The first diary entry was a month ago. The owner of the diary accidentally participated in a lottery and won a cruise ship experience ticket, which allowed him to experience a ten-day cruise for free. This is the third prize of the lottery, and a total of 150 lucky people won this reward. And I heard that the cruise ship they are going to is a very luxurious cruise ship, it is definitely worth the trip. As a poor and unemployed vagrant, he was very excited and looked forward to this cruise trip.

The second diary is five days later, he received the boat ticket from the sponsor. Because of excitement and anticipation, he checked some information about the cruise ship in advance, wanting to see what interesting facilities there are on the cruise ship. As a result, he found that the cruise ship number written on the ticket was exactly the same as a cruise ship that had been missing for several years. But he didn't care, he didn't think the cruise ship he was going to was the missing cruise ship, he just thought it was a coincidence. But inevitably, the original owner felt a little unlucky, why happened to have the same name as the missing cruise ship.

The third diary entry was seven days ago. He said that he has often had nightmares recently. There are absurd and weird entertainment facilities in the dreams, and these facilities often kill people. In the dream, there were also tourists dressed up but with distorted faces. One second they were smiling and chatting in the banquet hall, and the next second they suddenly opened their bloody mouths and started chasing him.

He thought that these dreams were influenced by previous events, because he heard that a cruise ship with the same name was missing, so he couldn't help dreaming about the ghost ship. He repeatedly described the absurd scene in his dream in his diary for the next few times, but he never took it seriously. He only felt that he had never been on a cruise ship, so he was both looking forward to and fearful about the upcoming journey. He blamed his panic on the fact that he was too poor and afraid to make a joke after going to the cruise ship.

After going through the entire diary, there is no important information. However, Ye Xu still speculated from the lines that the players would indeed participate in events like banquets, and they needed to dress up to attend. During the banquet, those NPC tourists will suddenly attack and start chasing and killing players.

Ye Xu opened the brochure, quickly found several places where banquets could be held, and marked the nearby hiding places with a pen. However, he felt that this move might not have much effect. No one knew whether ghosts could pass through walls or not. Perhaps hiding was not very useful.

In addition, the diary also revealed that he went to the movies and played games in the video game city in his dream. But when watching a movie, the movie never ends, the popcorn can't be finished, and the drink can't be finished, which makes him feel very uncomfortable. As for the experience in the video game hall, he lost so badly that he spent all the game coins, and was annoyed by a woman staring at him to pay back the money.

Ye Xu felt that this might be a reminder.

Although he didn't know the use of it for the time being, he still wrote it down seriously.

There was nothing useful in other places in the room, Ye Xu flipped through it three times, and after confirming that he had found all the props, he had no choice to flip through again. Instead, he went into the bathroom to wash up, and lay down on the bed exhausted to rest.

There are new tasks tomorrow, so he needs to recharge his energy.

After a night without dreams, Ye Xu was woken up by the radio on time the next day.

"All players are requested to gather on the deck within half an hour and follow the guide to experience the various entertainment facilities on the cruise ship."

"All players please..."

"All players please..."

It was exactly the same as yesterday, Ye Xu, who had just woken up, pressed his beating heart and stared at the horn irritably. He was in a deep sleep, and the broadcast almost scared him out of a heart attack.

Ye Xu wiped his face, resigned himself to his fate and got up to wash up, there was no time to procrastinate.

The room still remained the same as it had been rummaged by him yesterday, and it was a little messy. If it wasn't like this, Ye Xu would have suspected that he had fallen into an infinite loop and returned to the morning of the first day. After all, what he said on the broadcast was not a word different from the last time.

It takes half an hour to wash up and go downstairs to gather, so there must be no time for breakfast. I don't know if those female players have enough time to wash and toss, anyway, Ye Xu brushed his teeth, washed his face casually, scratched his hair in front of the mirror, and left.

On the road, I also met a few friends who looked like they hadn't slept enough, their eyes were dull, and they were yawning.

Ye Xu reached out to touch the things in his pocket, and found a room card, a meal ticket and some banknotes. These were the only props he had, and although he wasn't sure if he would use the money today, he still brought them all out. If I go to the duty-free shop to buy something today, I will be embarrassed if I don’t have money, and I have to go back to get it, which is a waste of time.

My stomach is growling again, and now nothing is as important as eating.

This time the tour guide was no longer the last one to come, she stood directly on the deck and waited for the players to arrive. When the time is up, I don't care about those who haven't come yet, just take them away.

She didn't count the number of people, and Ye Xu couldn't see how many people came with a glance, so he didn't know if they were all there. If there are still people who haven't come, even if there is no accident, it is estimated that they may not be able to find out what the experience project is today, and they will not be able to complete the experience tasks by then, which is even worse.

"Today we are going to the duty-free shop." The tour guide is not like a serious tour guide at all, she speaks very little, and does not introduce the items on the ship and the background story of the ship to attract tourists. She quickly brought everyone to the entrance of the duty-free shop, Pointing to the shop, he said, "Please shop around for at least half an hour."

Ye Xu kept an eye out, he felt that it was impossible to just go shopping for half an hour, since everyone came to the store, there was no reason not to buy something. But the tour guide did not say that everyone should buy things. Either there is no such rule, or the tour guide has dug holes for everyone, just like yesterday's watch incident.

Ye Xu would rather believe it was the latter, after all, these NPCs are too bad, and he wished that the player would not be able to complete the task.

Obviously, Ye Xu was not alone in thinking so. Several players subconsciously touched their pockets, probably bringing money out.

More than a hundred people filed in, and then quickly dispersed to "seriously" shop in the duty-free shop.

Ye Xu first paid attention to the price, he found that the things here are very expensive. It's not that the duty-free shops on the cruise ship deliberately raise prices, but that there are only expensive goods here, and there are no cheap goods. After browsing two shelves, the cheapest box of facial masks cost more than 300 yuan, but he only had 500 yuan.

He doesn't think these products will have any impact on the game after buying them. These products are obviously ordinary products, not props that can resist ghosts. Ye Xu is not quite willing to spend the money here, because the game hall activities in the future obviously need to be exchanged for game coins, and the movie theater activities may require buying popcorn and drinks by themselves.

Of course, it would be great if the NPC offered to provide it, but would the NPC be so kind

Ye Xu touched the five hundred yuan in his pants, feeling the pressure of life.

It's nice to have money.

He immediately decided not to take the initiative and waited for others to experiment. He was wandering around near the door, seemingly looking at the merchandise, but he was actually watching the tour guide at the door from the corner of his eye, waiting for other players to ask the tour guide for meal tickets.

According to Ye Xu's speculation, the meal tickets they got yesterday should only be valid for one day, so they have to complete the task every day to get a new meal ticket. Although Ye Xu didn't take the old meal ticket to the restaurant to try, but it's all a routine and it's easy to guess.

Besides, there is a restaurant downstairs anyway, so he can try it later to see if it can be used.
