Psychological Control - Chapter 81
“Go to the Urban Living Hotel and go up to the top and use the binoculars there to find the dwarf ceramic dolls around the building. Once you find the doll, go there and take it down while you get the next clue.” The last Maori warrior The brother still did not carry it with Dillon. After a stalemate, he took out the clues, and I took the clues that he had handed over.
The Urban Life Hotel in Auckland is one of the most luxurious and upscale hotels besides the Sky City Hotel. So it’s very easy to find its location in the map. Sitting in the car, before Dillon started the car, I saw Zoe and Joseph’s sister team coming up from the mountain.
I quickly found the road from Mount Eden to the Urban Life Hotel on the map. I drew it with colored pencils and opened the car window to look out. I greeted the two children and walked away again.
Looking at the dwarves looking around the building with a telescope was not even a problem for Dillon. Just like a thermal imaging scan, less than ten minutes after we reached the roof of the Urban Life Hotel, Dillon found a dwarf tied to a tree in a nearby park. Because no one was competing with us, we got the next clue very smoothly.
The next clue was printed on the base of the dwarf, which was a detour task. There are two options for the detour task, one is time is money, and the other is courage is success.
In time is money, we need to drive to a kiwi orchard, an hour’s drive from downtown Auckland, and then stand in a box full of kiwis and blow up two liters of kiwi juice barefoot. Needless to say, there is no technical difficulty in this task, the only thing that needs to be consumed is time.
In courage is success, we only need to drive to the Sky Tower, which is only ten minutes away from the city life hotel, and then climb the top of the Sky Tower to complete the two tasks of aerial walking and bungee jumping. Undoubtedly, Dillon and I looked at each other to know that we must choose the branch of courage that is success.
“I heard that when I came to Auckland, New Zealand, I did not jump out of its iconic sky tower once, it was just a bump.” I held the little dwarf ceramic doll in my hand and said to the camera with a smile. “So we definitely choose Courage is success. I always like exciting extreme sports, and thank you for giving me this opportunity.
He said with a grinning smile, while I got to the side of Dillon who looked very boring and serious because he had been in front of the camera, and then wrapped his hands around his waist like a koala, saying, “Don’t say It’s tight bungee jumping, even if skydiving is nothing to Dillon. We won the first place in the first round relay station. “
Perhaps in the eyes of Chinese people who adhere to the doctrine of the mean, such a speech would seem arrogant and unpopular. But for Americans with a somewhat heroic complex, such a speech just hit their appetite.
From the city life hotel to the sky tower, we never met anyone to catch up. Put on the gear as fast as possible, we followed the staff to take the elevator to the top of the 200-meter-high sky tower. Without any **** and hesitation, we tied the safety rope on our body and stepped out.
The so-called walking in the air is to walk out of the outer periphery of the sky tower tightly with a safety rope, and walk around three times in a circle around the periphery except for one meter wide road under the foot and no other handrails around it. Because of the game, we will not have the staff lead the way.
Even the shooting was done by a camcorder tied to our wrists and a helicopter-style remote control camera flying in the air. This means that at a height of two hundred meters from the storefront, under the strong sea breeze, only the participants had to go through this time alone.
Maybe for many others, this will always be a more time-consuming task than stepping on kiwi juice. However, for me and Dillon, I can think of the foot of this meter-wide circle as flat ground.
With the surprise attention of the crew of the surrounding program, including the staff of the Sky Tower, Dillon and I began to stand faster than the average person’s trotter and jogging after going out to stand. Even in this case, we even have leisure and interest in teasing each other.
“The close-up shots here are all self-help. How about a better look?” I walked sideways around the foot with a pronounced arc, and lifted the camcorder tied to my left wrist. Turning his head toward Dillon. “Maybe looking back can be a beautiful collection of clips just like in the survivors.”
“As long as you want,” Dillon said without comment, but the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted to show his good mood. “What are you going to do?”
Just as he asked, I had already reached the place I saw before. This is the most beautiful place in the circle around the sky tower. Behind us is the pier we went to before the city boundary, and the blue sea with no horizon line. At this time, it is the most dazzling and beautiful moment at sunrise.
It’s also a rare sunny day for Auckland’s winter days. Because of its proximity to the equator, the sky in New Zealand looks very low, and white clouds dotted it, just like painting.
I turned completely to face Dillon, raised my hand and touched the left side of his neck, and said with a smile, “Since you were so reluctant to let that Maori warrior finish his meeting ceremony, you should replace it. Do it once when you are in the country. “As I said, I took a step out of one foot, and the heel on the back lifted my heel, placing my forehead on his forehead.
At such a close distance, in addition to the whispering wind in my ears, there was a slight audible sound of his breathing. The hand on the side of his neck gently touched the base of his ears, and there was scum that came out before he had time to shave. Because I was so close, my eyes couldn’t look directly into his eyes, but I still had a feeling of seeing his soul.
The tip of our noses touched, and we met each other in the same manner as the Maori people met. Then my head was held by Dillon’s outstretched hands, and he kissed even one side. Feeling this 200-meter-high altitude without any leaning kiss around, I closed my eyes gently.
At this moment, our only reliance is on each other. For me, actually, the only person in this world who can be counted on as a dependant is not this man. He wouldn’t say those sweet words, but as long as he was around, it would give me an unparalleled sense of security.
For me, the most important thing is that sense of security.
Not only Brian, a child of a single parent family, but before this life I was also a helpless orphan, struggling to survive on my own. The nerve that is always tight can finally rest for a while. Because of this, he trapped me firmly, like a spider weaving a web, and the prey that fell into the web could no longer escape.
At this moment, and only at this moment, I stopped my brain that was no longer counted. I didn’t even think about it, because the actions of me and him will cause a sensation in the future because of the fast forward show crew broadcast without editing. And kissing in the air walk of Auckland Sky Tower, will become what kind of popular show loving way.
At the end of the kiss, I didn’t count the time. Maybe half a minute, or maybe just a few seconds like time stagnation. I opened my eyes and looked at the Auckland city like an aerial view. The helicopter-like remote control camera dedicatedly flew around us, leaving a picture of this kiss with a 360-degree ring.
“Let ’s go, we and the whole world are waiting for us to travel around.” I laughed. “Even if it was not for the final reward of one million US dollars, I would not miss the opportunity of public travel.”
Holding Dillon’s hand and walking around the periphery of the Sky Tower three times, we were finally reached the initial starting point and then picked up by the staff. Facing the prompt of the camera crew to say a few words, looking at the camera, Dillon said helplessly, “Maybe it’s because Brian usually doesn’t like such a clumsy way of holding hands, so try this opportunity enough. “
After the air walk is over, due to safety considerations caused by wind resistance and inertia, high-altitude bungee jumping can only be performed by one person. Because of my will, Dillon was the first to jump. After he jumped without hesitation, I also stepped onto the platform after checking the safety measures by the staff.
I stood on the edge, and because of the weight of the straps on my upper body, the whole person leaned out of midair. I raised my head and pointed at the helicopter-type remote-control camera that shot around me, and I showed a sigh of sigh. I pulled my hands to the fence and let them out.
At a height of two hundred meters, the stagnation time in the air seems to make people think they are flying. The feeling of falling is just the first moment. In fact, in the subsequent free fall, people will not feel the feeling of weightlessness. I opened my arms and watched from the top of the city overlooking the city, and fell into the steel jungle again.
Relaxation is only temporary. The confrontation with opponents in social games is like the weak meat and strong food of wild animals, and the modern jungle made of steel is our battlefield.
Speeding forward the first stop, Dillon and I easily won the first place victory. The reward that comes with the first place is the two fast-forward cards that have tremendous advantages afterwards. As long as a fast-forward card is used, we can skip any roadblock task or detour task.
In other words, we won a gold medal.
Another fast-forward card requires us to give another pair of participants. And there is no doubt that this fast-forward card will be our firm ally brother and sister team, Zoe and Joseph. 2k novel reading network
