Infinite Escape Room: No Parkour - Chapter 38
Time passed by one minute and one second, just like the blood flowing in the bodies of the four of them.
Shi Yu listened to the voice from the maple tree.
-“Human vanity is like an endless abyss.”
—”The price paid for this is flesh and blood.”
-“You are also a vanity soul.”
Is Shi Yu also a vanity soul?
She doesn’t know, but she only knows that she really paid a lot to redress her father’s “video fraud”.
Once, there was a person hanging on the edge of a cliff, about to die in front of him.
But Shi Yu did not extend a rescue hand to that person.
She almost forgot, she was also a vain soul.
In order to have a place, to enable herself to live a good life in the real world, and to regain her own property, she sent her aunt to prison.
But what about the teacher?
Is it also a victim of vanity?
Shi Yu suddenly remembered.
She had seen it in the student archives of Xian Shengde.
“The predecessor of St. Westing School was the Salty Childbirth School. Ding Zongguang was not only the principal of St. Westin School, but also the principal of Salter Childbirth. You had studied in the Salter Childbirth School before it closed. .Zhou Zihan!”
Shiyu yelled its name loudly.
“Zhou, Zi, Han—”
These three words were like a spell, and they disintegrated all the black fog surrounding the maple tree with great ease.
The dry branches stuck behind Shiyu’s neck quickly pulled away, and the coldness of all the actions that were imprisoned by Shiyu disappeared and disappeared in an instant.
Her legs softened, and she knelt heavily on the ground, rubbing her numb calf.
Ying Zhuo also fell to the side, lying next to Shi Yu without any sensation.
She crawled in the direction of Ying Zhuo, reached out her hand to pick up Ying Zhuo, held him in her arms and gently patted his cheek: “Ying Zhuo? Ying Zhuo?”
Ying Zhuo didn’t open his eyes, he seemed to have fallen into his own world, and suddenly closed his eyes ignorantly and muttered to himself.
Shiyu leaned closer and heard him shouting two words in a very soft voice.
“Father…”
Does it mean dad?
Shi Yu raised his head and glanced at the maple tree that was gradually returning to normal. It didn’t seem to be mad anymore. Even Leng Xinyu and Gao Fei were out of the control of the branches. Lying on the ground seemed to have the meaning of waking up.
“Where is this…” Gao Fei clutched the back of his neck and felt a little damp. He opened his palm and saw a scarlet blood stain, almost fainted with fright.
Ying Zhuo was lying in Shi Yu’s arms, frowning her eyebrows as if she was also awakening, but she still couldn’t fully wake up.
He grasped Shiyu’s arm with great strength, and his arm felt numb when he grasped it.
—”Little girl, do you know who is lying in your arms?”
Maple’s voice suddenly calmed down, and there was no longer the madness and hysteria just now.
The huge maple tree seems to have escaped from the black fog, and is deeply rooted on the floor. Its branches and leaves are as eye-catching as ever, but there is no glamorous feeling.
It will never be able to leave here.
Because it still has this unfinished wish here.
It wants to make this school disappear completely, together with the self possessed in this maple tree.
When Ying Zhuo opened his eyes, what he saw was the human girl’s concerned and nervous gaze. He felt a little emptiness but it was useful.
In the dream, he seemed to have gone back fifteen years ago and experienced that terrifying nightmare on one side.
He held on to the source of the pain in his neck and touched the wound inserted by the branch.
The wound is no longer bleeding, but there is still a very strong pain.
Maple has no evil spirits anymore, as if pulled out of the memory, and the tone of her speech is much more gentle and affectionate, exactly the same as in the video.
— “Burn this school, and you will be able to go to the next incident.”
Shi Yu asked back: “What about you?”
— “I am not important, I am dead long ago.”
It’s already dead.
This was the first time Shi Yu saw such a calm and composed evil thing after the evil spirit had dissipated.
Perhaps it is because it was a very kind soul before it was alive.
Why would such a kind child be sent to such a school by his parents?
Leng Xinyu and Gao Fei went to the cafeteria to fetch gasoline, and according to Maple’s instructions, poured the gasoline downstairs. Goofy had a lighter on his body. After igniting the gasoline, the whole world was illuminated and burned by a fire.
Ying Zhuo stood under the maple tree and stretched out his hand to stroke the stump of the maple tree.
The maple tree being stroked seemed very comfortable. The maple leaf was swaying in the fire, and Shi Yu always felt as if he could see the time when the crime was committed.
—”A distinguished person like you, why do you still come here?”
Maple spoke again, this honorific name seemed to correspond to what Zhuo said.
Ying Zhuo didn’t answer its question, but chuckled softly: “You hurt my little fish before. You originally planned to eat you. But seeing the little fish so pitiful for you, I will give you one. Cheng.”
His hand stroked the maple tree, and the maple tree seemed to have been sanded, gradually becoming transparent and foggy in Ying Zhuo’s hand.
This maple tree was nourished by the blood of the teacher, and was also attached to the soul of the teacher.
Before she was alive, she continued to watch her students suffer here but was powerless. This huge obsession and resentment made her unable to leave.
Let this kind of school disappear completely is her last wish.
The color of the fire light reflected on everyone’s faces, and the bright flames were in front of him, but Shi Yu couldn’t feel any heat.
Ying Zhuo held her hand and watched the whole world melt away like wax under the burning fire.
The towering and gloomy teaching buildings in between have turned into tiled houses and dilapidated bamboo houses.
The originally dark purple night seemed to have more sunlight on the horizon.
Shi Yu looked at this light greedily, always feeling as if he was about to reach the world.
Maple is the incarnation of vanity, originally there were five people at the beginning of the game, but now one is missing.
Leng Xinyu and Gao Fei hardly participated in the following games, but they were caught by the security guard after He Shiyu dispersed, and then thrown into the small black room.
There is actually nothing in the small dark room, only the dazzling lights and heavy music like the daylight.
Shi Yu suddenly realized what kind of harm the legendary little black house would cause to people.
Heavy metal music and lights can make people unable to fall asleep forcibly, and not sleeping for more than three days will cause damage to the human spirit, but the appearance is invisible. This is why so many children have mental problems after they go back.
“Here…Where is it?” Leng Xinyu looked at the gradually whitening sky and the mud-brick houses in front of him.
Such houses are rarely seen in modern society. Almost all of them are piled up with mud and covered with weeds, which seems to be to keep out the rain.
But despite this, there is a dilapidated, decayed and scented look everywhere.
here it is…
“A mountain village?” Shi Yu looked around and repeatedly determined where he was.
They did not move their positions, but all the surrounding environment has changed.
There was another sound from everyone’s watch, this time it was a hint from the Xindi game.
—”Welcome to the’Go Home, Go Home’ game event.”
The name of this incident is rather interesting.
But Leng Xinyu and Gao Fei, who were standing next to each other, looked at each other and their faces changed.
In the last incident, Shi Yu felt that the relationship between the two people did not seem to be simple colleagues.
After Hu Fang became the evil thing in the game, Shi Yu knew that these games are likely to assimilate everyone, maybe this time it became Leng Xinyu and Gaofei.
There were only four people present, but there were five sounds in the game prompt.
Shi Yu followed the extra sound and saw a man standing in front of a house where green mold had grown on the wall, holding his arm and looking at his watch, and he was very interested when he felt that there were people next to him. Raised his head.
He seems to be in his early twenties. He wears a clean and tidy rimless lens on the bridge of his nose. The clothes on his body are also simple and capable of sea blue. He exudes a state of leisure and contentment, with a smile on the corners of his mouth. Looking at the crowd on the other side.
He also wears a wrist watch on his hand.
New player?
Obviously neither Leng Xinyu nor Gao Fei knew this person.
Shi Yu always felt that the eyes of this new player had been on Ying Zhuo’s body.
She looked back at Ying Zhuo, who was standing behind her, and was suddenly frightened by the expression on his face.
Ying Zhuo’s gaze was as sharp as a blade, and he was looking at the new player fiercely. Shi Yu felt that if Ying Zhuo held a knife in his hand at this moment, he would definitely rush to wipe the neck of this new player.
“Hello.”
The new player walked over politely, his long face was slightly lifted, and there was a natural nobility and pride between his eyebrows. Although greeting them, Shi Yu clearly felt a natural sense of alienation.
“My name is Huai.”
Huai? One word? Don’t have a surname?
This kind of straightforward self-introduction adds to the sense of alienation.
Shi Yu looked at Huai and then at Ying Zhuo: “Ying Zhuo, do you two know each other?”
“Actually.” Huai.
“I don’t know.” Ying Zhuo.
“…” Shi met.
The corners of Huai’s mouth raised slightly, smiling as if he was facing his colleagues when participating in a friendship, standard and without personal touch: “Zhao? Ying Zhuo? You kind of give yourself a surname.”
Ying Zhuo’s face turned dark as if he was about to eat people: “It’s your ass?”
There seemed to be something wrong with the atmosphere between the two people, Shi Yu was caught in the middle and was stared at him.
Huai looked at Shi Yu curiously, but Ying Zhuo’s gaze was quickly cut off from the middle, Ying Zhuo unavoidably stared straight at Huai, saying, “Put your eyeballs when you are watching.” “Come out” means.
Suddenly a new player appeared, this new player still had some old knowledge with Ying Zhuo, and it seemed that he still had the kind of old knowledge with great grudges.
This made Shi Yu very curious about what happened between Ying Zhuo and Huai.
Burning, Huai.
One fire and one water.
The atmosphere between these two people is just like these two words.
