Chapter 218 Escape and Misunderstanding



“There was a fire and there was a problem with the fire hydrant in the library, which caused the fire to spread.

Someone’s dead… Kakaka… The firefighters will come to the library to inspect the firefighting measures, I need to be prepared in advance… Kakaka…”

The library director was talking to himself as he pushed his wheelchair and tried to leave.

If he hadn't pushed the wheelchair faster than usual, Gu Huaiwei might have really thought that he was restricted by the rules and couldn't say anything else.

"Don't play dumb. I know you can hear me and understand me. Answer me, does our previous agreement still stand?" Gu Huaiwei pressed down on his wheelchair and stared at the back of his head.

“Crackle, crackle—”

The library director pushed the wheelchair so hard that the wheels lifted up.

Gu Huaiwei is stronger.

He couldn't leave.

"Ka-ka-ka... Let me go... It's almost dawn."

The librarian needed to be back in his study before daybreak.

He has to go back.

This is the copy's limitation on weirdness.

"Answer my questions and I will let you go." Gu Huaiwei exerted a little force on the wheelchair with her hands, and the steel pipes on the wheelchair were squeezed and deformed.

Weirdness likes to play riddles with humans, saying some seemingly plausible words, and then leading humans to have wrong imaginations and fall into the trap of rules.

But at this moment, the library director was obviously not in the mood to beat around the bush with Gu Huaiwei.

"The timing is wrong... click, click, click..."

"What time?"

The director of the library has tried his best to communicate with Gu Huaiwei in human language.

"You need to come see me tomorrow night! Let me go, click, click, click... The fire just started today, and I haven't hired a secretary yet. The timing is wrong... click, click, click... It's almost dawn!"

He was in such a weird situation in the copy that if a human being was restricted in his movements and failed to return to his own area on time, thus triggering the copy's punishment for weirdness, he would die with regret.

Oh, no, he's already dead and there's no way he can die again.

The faint sunlight penetrated the thick morning mist, passed through the glass windows of the library corridor, and gradually melted the almost frozen walls.

"Oh, your feet...it seems like there's a lot of black energy coming out."

Because he did not return to the designated location, the power of the library director began to leak out.

"Let me go... click, click... let me go!"

"It counts... click, click, click... I made a promise for tomorrow in advance, the previous one counts!"

After getting the answer she wanted, Gu Huaiwei immediately took her hand away and let go of the librarian.

“Kachaka…Kachaka…”

The librarian made a quick sound in his throat.

Those were not words that humans could understand, but from the tone, one could tell that they were not good words.

The moment Gu Huaiwei let go of him, he jumped off the wheelchair without looking back. Carrying the deformed wheelchair, he stopped panting and his waist no longer hurt. He walked briskly, stepped on the wall, and hung upside down, and quickly escaped from the sixth floor through the frozen ceiling that had not had time to melt.

Gu Huaiwei clicked her tongue and watched the "disabled curator" escape at the speed of light.

"Sister Gu, he runs so fast!"

Gu Huaiwei tucked the strands of hair behind her ears and said thoughtfully, "Indeed, I didn't expect his legs to be so agile. He almost left an afterimage."

When the sun rose, the corridor on the sixth floor seemed to be rewound in time and returned to its original state. The flames that raged last night and the water stains on the ground were all gone, and even the burnt smell in the air disappeared without a trace.

The wooden door of the toy house opened, and the sharp-nosed and monkey-faced trial-taker poked his head out from inside.

When playing hide-and-seek last night, Lu Xiaoxing was almost found by Bella. He thought quickly and kicked his teammates out, so he was able to escape to the toy house safely.

And his unlucky teammate has been turned into a miner doll by Bella.

According to the rules, the corridor is safe after daybreak.

But when he opened the wooden door, he saw the girl in the brown coat and the little girl with fluffy white hair behind her. The expression on his face suddenly froze and he froze in place.

No, who are these two people?

Lu Xiaoxing narrowly escaped danger last night by backstabbing his teammate, and thought that he would have new hope today, but at this moment, the appearance of Gu Huaiwei made him feel despair.

His throat was tight and countless rules were turning in his head.

These two people are definitely not trial-takers!

Is it weird?

Why is it not mentioned in the rules?

Did he miss a new rule?

It’s terrible. Lu Xiaoxing’s throat tightened and he felt that he was not far from death.

Gu Huaiwei waved at him in a friendly manner: "Hello, the winner of hide-and-seek, you have dark circles under your eyes, do you need to relax?"

Lu Xiaoxing stood there motionless.

All the hairs on his body were standing on end, his heart was beating like a drum, and his breathing was not smooth. How could he relax?

Bai Meimei pulled out a poster promoting the Oasis Sanatorium and skipped over to Lu Xiaoxing. She stuffed the poster into his arms and smiled childishly, "Big Brother, if you like playing hide-and-seek, you can come to our sanatorium. We usually arrange activities like hide-and-seek."

In order to enrich the leisure time of the inpatients at Oasis Sanatorium, Gu Huaiwei asked Lin She to organize some entertainment activities.

For example, flower arranging, tea art, hide-and-seek, ceramic making, etc.

Bai Meemie's words sounded more like a death note to Lu Xiaoxing's ears.

"Still...still playing?" Lu Xiaoxing swallowed dryly, thinking the two people in front of him were Bella No. 2 and Bella No. 3.
