The images of the seven people flashed repeatedly on the mirror, and everyone looked tense, with a bad feeling.
A dozen seconds later, it suddenly stopped, and the image of the hotel employee was frozen on the mirror.
"What do you mean? Why me?" the female employee asked, looking flustered.
As she spoke, her mirror image also spoke.
Their tone, expression, and body language were exactly the same!
Others simply cannot tell which is real and which is fake.
"Hey, don't do what I did!"
The female employee screamed and retreated, trying to hide in a corner of the restroom.
But wherever she retreated, her mirror image followed, always maintaining a distance of about one meter.
"Don't panic, stay calm!"
The young police officer stepped forward and tried to calm the female employee down.
But as soon as he moved, his mirror image clones beside him followed suit, their movements perfectly synchronized.
"Don't come any closer!"
The female employee became even more frightened when she saw two identical policemen approaching.
The young policeman stood still, looking at his own mirror image, unsure of what to do.
"Don't panic, panicking won't solve anything."
Veteran police officer Zhang Zhihu was also panicked. He had seen many strange things in his many years of service, but this was the first time he had ever witnessed something so bizarre.
However, he maintained a calm expression.
He approached the mirror, examined it carefully, and even tapped it with his hand, finding that it was no different from a normal mirror.
Then he walked to the bathroom door and tried to go out.
It was as if an invisible force was blocking the way; no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get out of the door.
"We might be trapped in a mirror."
"Captain Zhang, smash the mirror, maybe that will allow us to get out."
The young policeman offered his suggestion, and Zhang Zhihu thought about it and said, "Why don't you give it a try!"
Having received affirmation, the young policeman strode towards the mirror, raised his pistol, and smashed it against the mirror with the butt.
A loud crash!
The mirror was undamaged, but he was so shaken that he stumbled back several steps.
"Get out of the way, I'm going to shoot!"
The young policeman was somewhat annoyed. He released the safety and prepared to fire.
Zhang Zhihu wanted to stop them, but after thinking about it, he remained silent.
Bang!
After the gunshot, a bullet hole appeared on the mirror, and scattering cracks covered the entire mirror.
Everyone was overjoyed; it seemed there was hope of breaking it.
But in the next instant, the cracks disappeared quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it returned to its original state.
The young policeman looked disappointed, but the mirror image next to him burst into strange laughter.
"Destroy the mirror space, die!"
It suddenly reached out its right hand and grabbed at the young policeman with lightning speed.
The young policeman never expected the mirror image to attack him. Before he could dodge, the hand had already reached into his body.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, the mirror image pulled a phantom from his body, then tilted its head back, stuffed the phantom into its mouth, and chewed it a couple of times.
"It's been so long since I've eaten a human soul, it's so delicious!"
The young policeman's mirror image smacked his lips, glanced at the others with a wicked smile, and then disappeared.
Only then did the young policeman's body fall to the ground with a thud.
"ah!"
Screams rang out, and everyone panicked.
No one expected that the mirror image was actually a monster that ate human souls.
Just as everyone was still in a state of panic, a mirror image suddenly appeared next to each of them.
It turns out that a minute has already passed quietly.
"Do we have to play games to go out?"
The female employee huddled in the corner, trembling with fear, never imagining that someone would actually die.
"Rule number one says that if you find the true identity of another person, you can survive to the next round. Does that mean that if you find the wrong one, you will die?"
Her image is reflected in the mirror, which may mean that the game will start with her.
In other words, a person's true identity must be identified within the allotted three minutes.
But now everyone has two identical mirror images. How do you choose?
"Don't choose randomly. There's definitely something wrong with this game. Don't let yourself be led by the nose."
Seeing that the female employee's gaze was sweeping over the group as if she was about to make a choice, Zhang Zhihu quickly stopped her.
"If I don't choose, will I be in danger after the deadline?"
"this……?"
Zhang Zhihu remained silent, unable to give a definite answer, but subconsciously felt that he shouldn't play this game, otherwise it would be dangerous.
He suddenly looked at Xia Tianqiong, "You understand the situation here, right?"
Everyone was taken aback and looked over.
Xia Tianqiong shook her head. "I don't know."
This was clearly not something the old policeman believed. He narrowed his eyes and scrutinized Xia Tianqiong.
“You were here when we arrived, and you remained excessively calm throughout, without the slightest change in expression even after people died. I am quite certain that you know something we don’t.”
When the others heard Zhang Zhihu's analysis, they also noticed that he was too calm, standing there as if he were watching a play.
"Brother, what do you know? Tell us!"
"Young man, what exactly is going on?"
"People have died now. If you hide anything, you'll be held responsible!"
The group looked at Xia Tianqiong as if they had found a glimmer of hope, but at the same time, there was also some resentment in their eyes.
Xia Tianqiong didn't expect the police to be so certain. "I can only tell you that playing the game against the rules will kill you! Playing according to the rules is also a nine-out-of-ten chance of death!"
"Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Liu Wangcai complained, then looked at the female employee, "You're the first one, hurry up and start choosing!"
The female employee had another question: "What will happen if I choose the wrong one?"
