Mu Qin turned on the light in the men's room.
Although the light in the toilet was a little dim, it still illuminated the small bathroom clearly. Under the light, Chu Xin, who was shivering, couldn't help raising her head cautiously, and took a look at Mu Qin. She looked at Mu Qin's face, as if she wanted to see Mu Qin's face clearly. I don't know if she saw it clearly, but she quickly lowered her head again.
Mu Qin didn't care about Chu Xin's gaze, but looked around the men's room. The men's room was relatively clean and didn't have much smell. There must be cleaning staff working hard to maintain it, so the walls of the toilet The tiles on the floor were all polished brightly, so transparent that Mu Qin and Chu Xin could be reflected.
Mu Qin grabbed Chu Xin's hand and pulled her behind him, then closed the toilet door, and then dragged Chu Xin to the sink in the toilet.
"Wash off the blood on your body." After saying this, Mu Qin turned on the faucet of a washbasin for Chu Xin. After listening to Mu Qin's words, Chu Xin looked dazed. She thought she was hurt, but I took a look in front of the mirror and found that there were only some bloodstains on my face and neck, as well as bruises from pinching, and no wounds.
The blood on Chu Xin's body was left by Mu Qin, because Mu Qin had a wound on his left hand, although it has healed.
Mu Qin took advantage of the opportunity to wash off the blood on his hands in another washbasin, making the water in the men's room squeak.
After Mu Qin washed his hands clean, he turned to look at Chu Xin beside him. The girl was still slowly cleaning up the blood on her body. This made Mu Qin a little impatient and said, "Hurry up!"
Mu Qin's tone was not very good. His sharp attitude made Chu Xin very nervous. The more nervous she became, the more chaotic Chu Xin's movements became. She immediately sped up her actions, desperately trying to wash herself with water, but the front of the clothes and the sleeves were All got wet.
Mu Qin couldn't stand it anymore, reached out and grabbed Chu Xin's arm, pulled her over, and wiped her face with his own sleeve.
"How old are you?" Chu Xin is too short. Although she looks 1.6 meters tall by visual inspection, her net height is estimated to be a centimeter or two short. Feeling even thinner. Mu Qin was nearly 1.8 meters tall. When Mu Qin wiped her face, he had to bow his head slightly, which made Mu Qin feel that he was facing a little girl.
Chu Xin's face was flushed red by Mu Qin's rude actions, and she answered obediently: "Nineteen..."
"Are you in college?" Mu Qin asked again. He stopped wiping Chu Xin's face, because he found that he couldn't control his own strength. The death card amplified his strength, which made him uncomfortable. There was a bruise on the girl's face, even though Chu Xin was obedient, she didn't complain of pain.
After listening to Mu Qin's question, Chu Xin shook her head and said, "I only went to elementary school."
"Only went to elementary school... why?" Chu Xin's answer aroused Mu Qin's curiosity.
Chu Xin opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she hesitated to speak. She was silent for a while before she said: "My family is very poor, and my father is a gambler and won't let me study."
Mu Qin noticed that when the girl said this, she lowered her head, but her hands trembled slightly.
"Are you lying?" Mu Qin asked again.
Chu Xin immediately raised her head and looked at Mu Qin with her dark eyes. She seemed a little angry and emphasized softly, "I'm not lying."
"What about your mother?" Mu Qin asked casually.
"Mom died." Chu Xin said, "He died of illness. I got breast cancer and died when I was in fifth grade."
"And then? What did you do if you didn't go to school?"
"Dad owed a lot of money from gambling, and he couldn't pay it back. Those debt collectors came to him with knives and hacked him. So Dad sold me to pay off the debt, and they made me a prostitute to pay off the debt." Chu Xin When talking about this past event, I feel quite calm, without too much turmoil in my tone, just like telling something that happened to someone else.
Chu Xin continued: "I have been until I was fifteen years old, and then I caused trouble because I killed a customer, and that customer wanted to play SM with me, but I didn't want to, so I hit him on the head with a glass ashtray, and he died. Yes. I was very scared... I escaped alone, and when the railway system was not reformed, I evaded the fare and got on a train to a completely strange city."
"At that time, I didn't have an ID card, and I didn't have much money on me. If I wanted to work, people had to register for an ID card, so in order to eat, I went to steal a student's student ID card and ID card, and pretended to be her to do odd jobs to earn money for meals. I lived in a utility room. I just managed to survive without incident... But a while ago, those people found me, they caught me and locked me in a basement, saying they wanted to sell me to What kind of backcountry is being a daughter-in-law for someone else."
"I just don't know why, at first they still brought me water and food, and then they may have encountered some problems, they ran away, left me and never came back, but I was still locked in that basement, there were no windows and only A door, I knocked desperately for help but no one heard... Then I starved to death because there was no water or food."
The girl's words startled Mu Qin, he felt his heart was pulled tightly by an invisible hand, making his breathing slightly stagnant.
Mu Qin knew that the girl was not lying, and when some people told lies, they were often full of emotion and pretended to be true. When some people tell the truth, their faces are expressionless and unwavering, as if they are reading a boring speech.
"When you escaped in the middle, didn't you ask others for help? Like the police?" Although he knew that she might not have asked for help like this at all, Mu Qin still asked.
Chu Xin seemed very at a loss, and said, "The police... are they really useful?"
Mu Qin took a deep breath, and then said to Chu Xin, "Well, you should know that you are dead now, right?"
Chu Xin nodded: "Well, I clearly remember that I died, because the feeling of starving to death is too deep... I can't forget it at all."
Mu Qin couldn't help but hold his breath.
Chu Xin also seemed quite strange, and boldly asked Mu Qin, "Since I'm dead, is this place hell?"
Mu Qin felt that he seemed to have heard her words somewhere. After recalling them carefully, he found that Duan Qun had asked almost the same question in the previous game.
"Why do you think you're going to hell?" Mnuchin said.
Chu Xin was unusually docile: "Because I have always been disobedient, my mother said that good children will be taken to heaven, and bad children will go to hell."
"You're a good boy." Mu Qin reached out and touched the girl's head. His action made Chu Xin a little uncomfortable, but it seemed to make Chu Xin a little bit bolder. She raised her head and asked Mu Qin, "That... If we're going to be pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend, you should tell me your name so we don't get caught up... But why are we pretending to be a couple?"
"My name is Mu Qin." Mu Qin smiled helplessly: "I can't explain clearly for a while, but you just need to follow my orders and stay by my side throughout the whole process."
Chu Xin stopped asking, but still nodded obediently, and replied, "Okay."
She seems to be used to being submissive, or has regarded being dominated by others as the most normal thing in life.
Mu Qin said: "You should have a card on you, take it out and have a look."
"A card...?" Chu Xin subconsciously groped in her pocket, and sure enough, she found a card. Without even looking at it herself, she handed the card to Mu Qin directly.
Mu Qin took it over and looked at it, then was slightly taken aback again.
This must be too much luck, right
The card Chu Xin drew was a card—Judgment.
The card shows a blond angel blowing a horn surrounded by cloud butterflies and red poppies. This card symbolizes reckoning and repayment, symbolizing Judgment Day, all souls will be called, their wishes will be felt, their crimes will be reviewed, they will be judged and purified, they may be destroyed, or awakened and reborn.
On the back of the card is written this line:
Make decisions in cruelty, and regain life in death.
Go ahead, you know what must be done.
ps: Attack card, summoning the thunder and lightning of the gods to judge the evil killer, making the killer temporarily incapacitated.
An upright card specifically for ghosts. Mu Qin had expected before that since he could draw a reversed star that is extremely beneficial to ghosts, someone on the human side must also draw a card that is beneficial to humans, but Mu Qin really did not expect that he would be able to get all of them in one go. Yes, God helped him.
After reading the cards, Mu Qin returned the Judgment Card to Chu Xin, and told her: "You take this card well. As long as I don't tell you, don't show it to anyone. I will teach you how to use it later, and Who to use it on."
Chu Xin, who got back the trial card, was at a loss. She didn't understand why a card could be used or not, but she obediently put the card in her pocket and said, "I will be very good!" done, anything."
Mu Qin stared blankly at the girl for a while, and couldn't help asking Chu Xin, "Have you ever been to this library?"
"Library?" Chu Xin was puzzled, "Are we in a library?"
"Yes, X downtown library." Mu Qin replied, "Have you ever been here?"
"Ah, it's that library... I came here many years ago." Chu Xin said, "During the time I sold myself to pay off my debts, apart from work... they would still give me some money and free time. I like reading, so I I went to the library, but I don’t know many characters, and some books are difficult to read.”
"So that's how it is." Mu Qin understood a little bit, and he stretched out his hand to Chu Xin, "Come on, we should go out."
Chu Xin put her hand into Mu Qin's and was led out of the toilet by him. After coming out, Mu Qin found some changes in the library. First of all, there were some noisy voices at the exit of the main entrance of the library on the first floor. It seemed that many people gathered there to talk.
The second is that Mu Qin noticed that some lights upstairs were on, and it was no longer dark.
Mu Qin silently kept these changes in his heart, and led Chu Xin towards the place where there was noise at the entrance of the hall. When he and Chu Xin walked through the rows of bookshelves and saw the gate of the library, Sure enough, it looked like three people gathered there.
The three of them, plus Mu Qin and Chu Xin, made up five and only one was missing.
Mu Qin approached them calmly, and then stopped at a position not too far away. The three people on the opposite side also noticed Mu Qin and Chu Xin. They stopped talking and looked at Mu Qin and Chu Xin with squinted eyes. , while Mu Qin was observing them.
These three people are all men, and they are a combination of tall, short and fat. One of them is about 30 years old, with a sad face, a beard, and tall, about the same as Mu Qin. The shorter one is about 1.7 meters. He is a young guy in his twenties, with a bright smile on his face and a handsome appearance. The last one is a fat man, of moderate height, not very fat, but he has a fleshy body and a round face.
First of all, the young guy who was about 1.7 meters tall spoke to Mu Qin. He smiled brightly and said in a brisk voice, "Are you a newcomer?"
"No." Mu Qin directly vetoed it, indicating his identity.
"That's great, I thought there would be a lot of nonsense." The sunny young man introduced himself to Mu Qin: "My name is Shi Hai, and I can be regarded as a veteran with some experience."
"Then what about those two beside you?" Mu Qin looked at the tall man and the fat man next to him.
"One is my trusted companion, his name is Qiao Yuanfei." Shi Hai put his hand on the tall man's shoulder.
Then he put the other hand on the fat man's shoulder: "One is a newcomer who I think is okay, and his name is Song Yang."
"What about you? What's your name, and who is she?" After Shi Hai finished speaking, he glanced at Chu Xin beside Mu Qin.
Mu Qin held Chu Xin's hand and asked her to take a step forward, and said to Shi Hai and the others, "My name is Mu Qin. This is my girlfriend, her name is Chu Xin, and she has been following me."
When Mu Qin introduced this, Chu Xin seemed to be a little scared, and hugged Mu Qin's arm and shrank behind his back.
"Oh! I'm really envious!" Shi Hai still had a smile on his face. To be honest, this man always maintained a smile, which made Mu Qin a little uncomfortable.
But Shi Hai just maintained that smile, and said in a tone that seemed to be jealous and mocking: "In this kind of game, who else can maintain true and pure love?"
Mu Qin probably understood what he meant, and Mu Qin said calmly: "Do you think the identities of our couple need to be investigated?"
"Whether you are a couple or not has nothing to do with me." Shi Hai seemed to have decided to open the skylight and say yes, he stopped smiling, but stared at Mu Qin suspiciously: "I don't plan to act with you, the next During the time, I will only stay with my partner Qiao Yuanfei and newcomer Song Yang, so you can go wherever you like, life or death has nothing to do with us."
"So that's the case, I know." Mu Qin had an expression of enlightenment on his face. He was silent for a while, and suddenly said in a strange tone on purpose, "So you plan to go in groups of three to find clues and props in this map, and in groups of three to resist the killer who will appear at any time, and in groups of three to escape from this place." A map... right?"
After Mu Qin said a word, Shi Hai's face collapsed a little at that time, but he still said confidently: "Don't you think the three of us can't do it?"
"Forgive me." Mu Qin looked carefully at Shi Hai and the others, "The tall man next to you named Qiao Yuanfei has a little chance of escaping. He looks in good shape, and that fat man is a burden. As for you... Maybe you can choose Find a place to hide in a cupboard or something."
Shi Hai was so angry at Mu Qin's words that his face was distorted. He took a step towards Mu Qin, and just opened his mouth to say something, but his companion Qiao Yuanfei stopped him. Although Qiao Yuanfei looked sad, " Unhappy uncle", but he spoke steadily, and said to Mu Qin: "If you want to join us, it's okay, but you need to show your cards."
"No, I don't want to join you." Mnuchin said, "I just want to exchange information with you, and then we can act separately."
"Information?" Shi Hai said disdainfully, "What information can you exchange?"
"This library looks like the fourth floor on the surface. In fact, it also has a basement floor, which is used as a warehouse for storing sundries and a power distribution room for temporary power supply." Muqin High School often visited this library in those years. It's pretty clear here. Although the interior of the entire library has been greatly renovated, the structure of the basement should not be changed much.
Shi Hai was even more disdainful: "What kind of information is this? You can find out about this kind of thing just by looking at the map of the library."
Mu Qin continued unmoved: "A long time ago, this library was not a library, it was just a desolate piece of sand. There used to be an air-raid shelter here, which was left during the war. People rebuilt their homes and built buildings on this land. When I was in the library, I discovered the air-raid shelter, but it was not easy to fill it in, so I changed the air-raid shelter to the basement floor of the library.”
"But you have to know that the air-raid shelter usually has an emergency escape exit, a hidden tunnel, this tunnel still exists today, I remember it is the underground parking lot leading to a shopping mall next to the library."
Qiao Yuanfei said: "So that's it. You want to tell us that there is a third exit in this library besides the front and back doors... Maybe it's a hidden exit, right?"
Mu Qin chuckled: "Yes, do you think this information is valuable?"
Qiao Yuanfei pinched his nose and said, "It's really valuable... So, what information do you want from us?"
Mu Qin thought for a while, and said calmly: "I want to know if any of you are 'ghosts'?"
Mu Qin's words made the three of Qiao Yuanfei look different, Qiao Yuanfei's face turned dark, Shi Hai glared at Mu Qin with suspicion, and the fat newcomer Song Yang, who had been silent all this time, was completely at a loss of.
Then Qiao Yuanfei hesitated for a moment, and said to Mu Qin: "It's not good for you to ask like this, do you think if some of us are really 'killers', would we tell you so openly?"
"You have already told me aboveboard." Mu Qin had a panoramic view of the three people's expressions, he smiled and said meaningfully, then he took Chu Xin's hand, and said to Qiao Yuanfei, "I want to know The things have already been obtained, so I don’t want to bother you, let’s part ways.”
