Infinite Secret House 16 It seems that I have offended something dirty...
The little painter puppet was still painting on the stage, sometimes smearing on white paper with a paintbrush.
Most of the time it was dissatisfied with the content of the painting and would tear it apart and throw it on the ground.
The man with glasses sitting in the front row would always pick up a ball of paper to see what was inside when the dog wasn't paying attention.
Not only him, but also the fatter man in the back row and Ji Qi and the other two had been in this theater for quite some time.
After taking turns to test Lyle's extreme sensitivity to sound, their movements were greatly restricted.
But it was enough for them to appreciate all the paintings on the walls and the floor.
Unfortunately, no one got any clues to pass the level.
Everyone also discovered that the even-numbered theaters almost all showed classic films, and only Theater 6 had puppets.
There are no clues to find outside, so we might as well just leave them here.
Lan Xi and Qi Shiqiu each took a piece of paper, wrote down the clues to Room 1 and Room 9, and then exchanged them.
When Ji Qi and the other person arrived at Hall 1, the fat man and the man with glasses were already inside, fighting in front of Pinocchio.
Ji Qi and the other guy thought that one of them had revealed his identity as a non-player, so they started fighting.
But after listening to the quarrel between the two for a while, I learned that the man with glasses found that he was missing a prop, and thus suspected that the fat man had stolen it.
The fat man firmly denied that he stole the props and said that he was framed.
The reason why the man with glasses is looking for something missing from his items is because the puppet here is the grocer Schiff.
Its so-called performance is to promote its own products - which are props to players.
Schiff was just like the clown puppet in Hall 5 said, enthusiastic and always smiling.
Seeing the player is like seeing a family member. He also said that when the player does not have enough lives, he can exchange props for props.
Who doesn’t have a couple of props that they can’t use and can’t sell?
Trading your junk for good props for Pinocchio is a great activity!
Both men were moved.
They also took out their junk props and exchanged them for props that suited their taste.
However, when the man with glasses was taking back the props, he found that one of his life-saving props was missing!
There was a rumor in Star City about people stealing other people's props for a while. Because the means were too despicable, many people were deceived and stayed in the copy forever. The copy that produced such props was taken over by an unknown big guy, but the props obtained before the takeover are still circulating on the market.
The man with glasses thought that the fat man had this kind of prop in his hand, so they started quarreling and fighting.
Qi Shiqiu suspected that one of the two was a non-player, but he was not sure who it was, so he did not bother to step forward to mediate, but just pulled Ji Xiaomei aside and watched coldly.
Just looking at it, it's like a fisherman waiting to harvest his catch after the fight between the snipe and the clam.
The two male players were afraid and stopped playing.
Although the fight was over, they still had a grudge against each other, and the two left Hall 1 one after the other.
Qi Shiqiu and Ji Xiaomei then started talking to Schiff.
Of course, Schiff was equally enthusiastic towards them, introducing his products enthusiastically and selling them with all his might.
Ji Xiaomei was ready to take out her own props, but Qi Shiqiu always felt that it was too enthusiastic.
She stopped Ji Xiaomei and talked to Schiff, asking him all kinds of questions, and kept asking him for ways to leave the theater, but she just didn't buy the props.
Schiff was chatting with her enthusiastically at first, but as she hesitated to buy the props, the smile on his face gradually became less sincere.
In the end, it even said directly that as long as she bought the props, it would tell them how to leave the theater.
Ji Xiaomei spent her life to buy a prop, which was equivalent to buying the answer to the game.
The answer is incredible - in Hall 0 hidden in the darkness.
Lan Xi stared at the last sentence, feeling puzzled.
Hall 0?
Aren’t there only ten theaters?
And "in the dark", does it mean the dark space before they enter the theater?
But Lanxi tried it, and found that except for Halls 1 to 10, there was only room to spin in place, and there was no Hall 0 at all.
Do I have to keep brushing?
Lan Xi gave the paper to Xie Yunsui and asked him to help analyze it.
Qi Shiqiu and Ji Xiaomei had also finished watching the contents of Hall 9. They were confused by the last sentence "You can leave after watching the show".
Want to watch all of it?
Didn't they miss the performance in Hall 9?
Can I go back?
Just as I was struggling with this, I suddenly heard the sound of the door opening.
As soon as Cen Yuanjie entered the room, he shouted, "Wow, finally..."
His voice died down in the face of Lan Xi's silent expression, but because his voice was so loud, even though he only said three words, it still annoyed the little puppet on the stage.
The man with glasses, who was still searching for clues on the ground, immediately returned to his seat and stood still.
Lyle broke the paint with one hand, and the bristled brush left an ugly mark on the white paper.
"I told you...be quiet!"
Lyle's voice was high-pitched and thin, and when he turned his head to look at the door, his brown eyes seemed to be stained red.
A gust of wind blew, and the little puppet on the stage came to the door like a whirlwind. Without saying a word, he clenched his fist and started hitting Cen Yuanjie in the face.
Cen Yuanjie: “???”
No, are the puppets in this theater so popular?
He subconsciously wanted to use props, but then he suddenly thought of Wang Liang in Hall 9 who had fought against the puppet and died after just one try. He put down the offensive props and replaced them with ones for escape.
When Gu Che and Gu Miaoyang came in, they saw Cen Yuanjie running around the theater with the puppet.
The other players in the theater took this opportunity to swarm and move stealthily toward the stage.
Gu Che frowned and was about to ask what was going on when Cen Yuanjie kindly reminded him, "Don't talk, or you'll end up like me."
Gu Che: “…”
A hesitant and withdrawn young painter?
What does it have to do with the puppet in the theater who is looking angry and playing a chase with the players?
Cen Yuanjie sacrificed himself and played the puppet alone, so everyone else hurriedly checked all the paintings on the stage, trying to find possible clues in them.
When Lan Xi saw Gu Che, she felt like she had seen a savior and waved him over.
Gu Che was startled, stepped forward quickly, and asked with a questioning look: What did you find?
Lan Xi urged him to use the private group chat props.
Gu Che: “…”
"Huh, I can finally talk." Lan Xi glanced at the little painter who was still being teased, and pulled Qi Shiqiu and Ji Xiaomei over: "Come closer, this item has a limited range."
As he spoke, he handed Gu Che the paper with the situation of Hall No. 1 written by Qi Shiqiu, and the brother and sister read it at a glance.
Gu Miaoyang occasionally looked up and asked, "Are there any clues in the drawing paper?"
Lan Xi said: "I haven't found it yet."
"Does your partner have any instructions?" Gu Miaoyang asked.
Lan Xi choked and paused for two seconds before saying, "He said the painter's place should be the final link. If we add up the methods mentioned by the three celebrity puppets, we should be able to find the exit."
Gu Che had seen the end: "...Room 0? A theater that doesn't exist?"
"It's definitely there, we just haven't found a way to light it up yet."
Because of Lan Xi, the relationship between the two siblings of the Gu family and Ji Qi is relatively harmonious.
Sometimes in a dungeon, players who are completely unfamiliar with each other can understand how to work together and cooperate when necessary just by looking at each other.
Qi Shiqiu pointed to a pile of paintings on the wall in front of him. "These landscapes are full of childishness. The scenery is childish and exaggerated. Can you see if you can find a puppet theater in there?"
"You suspect the clue lies in the words about the puppet theater?"
"I can't think of any other connection other than this."
Gu Miaoyang looked up and took a quick look. "I think it's possible that among those portraits there might be a self-portrait of this artist's puppet, or a portrait of another puppet."
Qi Shiqiu: "Then let's watch it separately and hurry up."
Cen Yuanjie, who was sitting in the seat, said: "Are you guys ready? I'm almost out of energy!"
Escaping monsters is also a physical job.
Gu Che's eyes were dazzled by the paintings. He felt that the colors used in these paintings were very bold and colorful. They were said to be childlike, but in fact, it was color pollution, right?
He would rather go and play puppetry.
But the private group chat props were on him, so he had to look at Lan Xi.
Lan Xi understood and thought that it would be okay to take the little wooden puppet for a walk. After Cen Yuanjie had rested, they could take turns walking it.
Cen Yuanjie was replaced and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then ran to the stage to join the discussion team.
After walking for a while, Lan Xi realized that this was not only a physical job, but also a technical job.
Pinocchio has a slender body and can sometimes move between the seats, mostly in a straight line, while Lanxi either has to climb over the seats or walk in a big circle. After walking for a few minutes, it feels like all the activities for the whole day are here.
He called out to Cen Yuanjie, but unfortunately the other party seemed not to hear him.
Lan Xi was distracted for less than a second and was almost caught by the puppet.
Lyle is not only fast, but also has sharp nails. If he is scratched by it, not even a piece of good skin will be left.
Xie Yunsui originally wanted Lan Xi to experience more of the dungeon gameplay, but he immediately dodged and grabbed the wooden head of the puppet, pressing it against the back of the seat.
"Are you hurt?"
Lan Xi was still in shock: "Fortunately, I'm not hurt."
This body did not keep up with Themis's consciousness. While thinking about how to avoid it, its body was honest and was a little slow, so its clothes were scratched by Lyle.
Even if it wasn't injured, it scared Xiaoxi.
Xie Yunsui took the opportunity to "retaliate" and broke Lyle's legs.
Just two hands for drawing are enough, legs are not necessary.
"Hey hey." Lyle, who was lying on the ground, made a strange noise of excitement: "You are amazing."
A twisted and excited expression appeared on Lyle's face, which should have been calm and shy, and it was inexplicably weird.
The two wooden leg bones on the ground jumped and found the body and were put together.
Lyle was not afraid of Xie Yunsui's violent behavior at all. Instead, he became more and more happy and pounced on him to challenge him again.
He was kicked away by Xie Yunsui.
Lyle slammed against the wall, his body falling apart, and a joyful laugh escaped his lips: "Haha, that's it, come again."
The pieces of wood each found their own position, and in less than five seconds, it was a complete puppet again.
It rushed over even more frantically.
Xie Yunsui:?
It seems like something dirty has been offended.
