Chapter 42 Underground Supermarket (2)
=========
In this game, Wang Linlin's task is to find the key and escape from the supermarket before 24:00.
Jian Lin's task is to disguise herself as a normal player, scare her and prevent her from escaping.
Yi Han didn't know how Jian Lin's rating for this mission was calculated, but according to common sense, the two were players from purely opposing camps, so the more frights Wang Linlin suffered along the way, wouldn't Jian Lin's score be higher... ?
Furthermore, if Wang Linlin fails to clear the level in the end, the points she earns in this round will be converted into GPA and distributed to Jian Lin and other NPCs according to their contribution.
With this in mind, Yi Han formulated an action plan for this game - help her score points, scare her madly, and then make her fail to escape at the last moment. After this, Jian Lin's promotion task will definitely get an S-level evaluation.
Thinking of this, Yi Han, who originally wanted to explore on his own, turned around and picked up Wang Linlin from the ground.
"No, it's too dangerous to leave you here alone, sister, hold on, let's not separate."
Wang Linlin, who was originally happy to be lazy, was a little upset now. She didn't want to play this kind of escape room game, where she had to search the supermarket for a small key and it would take a long time to find it. Although her foot was not twisted, it was nice to sit in the corner and rest while watching two men work for her.
But in order to maintain her image, she had no choice but to smile weakly and firmly: "Yeah, okay..."
Then he was carried around the supermarket like a chicken, stumbling and running at a rapid speed.
According to the sign, this underground supermarket has only 2 floors, and the three of them are at -2. If they want to escape, they need to find the elevator to go upstairs. But after searching around, they found that there was another fire door blocking the way in front of the elevator on this floor.
The key to this door could be hidden anywhere in the entire -2 floor. When Wang Linlin heard Yi Han say this, she recalled the nearly 100 shelves she had just passed by in this area and almost collapsed to the ground again.
But Yi Han would not let her become paralyzed. Using the excuse that he was "worried about his sister", Yi Han insisted on taking her to search all the shelves.
In the gap of one of the shelves, Yi Han found the second key... but he didn't say it. He pretended that he hadn't found it yet, and took Wang Linlin to explore the various locations on this floor.
During this time, Wang Linlin tried several times to pretend that she had twisted her ankle and couldn't walk, and went to rest nearby, but she was only told "Hold on, dear sister." Later, she wanted to talk to the more amiable brother Jian Lin, but was also stopped by Yi Han. The reason for stopping her was "Good sister, don't talk to strangers."
Wang Linlin felt a little aggrieved, but she still had to rely on Yi Han to lead her through the game, so she had to keep persuading herself in her heart: This man must have surrendered to her, and he cares about her! He must be possessive of her for not letting her talk to other men! That's great!
After all, Yi Han is a powerful veteran player. In comparison, Jian Lin is just a novice like himself. He may not have anything useful on him, so it doesn't matter if he can't hook up with him.
Jian Lin was stunned by the two people's strange attitude throughout the whole process.
This confused and cute look made Wang Linlin more certain of her opinion: this teammate was useless... and certainly not a threat. She quickly let down her guard against Jian Lin and did not suspect that this teammate might not be a human at all.
"We've searched all the shelves and display cabinets on this floor, but couldn't find the key. It seems we have to look somewhere else." Yi Han said.
"Where else can it hide?" Wang Linlin also looked like she was trying to think. But in fact, she had never played this kind of escape room game before, so her mind was blank.
"Let's go over there and take a look." Yi Han looked around and finally pointed to the bathroom in the corner of the supermarket.
This... this is a place where ghost sightings are frequent. Wang Linlin's hair immediately stood on end.
But she didn't do anything during the whole journey. Yi Han was the one looking for clues, and Jian Lin did all the work that required climbing up to check the shelves. Wang Linlin was carried around the whole time. So if they wanted to check the bathroom now, they probably wouldn't let her go in person, right...?
She followed the two men to the door nervously.
The bathroom in this supermarket is quite clean and nicely decorated, but the light seems to be broken and flickers, which is quite creepy.
Yi Han was satisfied when he saw that the layout was similar to the bathroom in the "closed classroom".
It seems that this is the first scare point in this level.
"I'll go this way first." He pointed to the men's restroom and walked in first.
So only Wang Linlin and Jian Lin were left at the door.
Wang Linlin finally got rid of Yi Han's supervision for a short time and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little brother, my name is Linlin, what's your name?" The few of them had been walking together for nearly half an hour, and now they finally got the chance to talk. Wang Linlin hurriedly spoke in a coquettish manner to Jian Lin.
Although both of the brothers were good-looking, Wang Linlin always felt that Yi Han was a bit fierce. He was gentle in words but rough in actions, which scared her. But Jian Lin was different. He looked like a little puppy, gentle and cute. Wang Linlin liked him very much.
"My last name is Jian." Jian Lin smiled gently and cutely, but did not give his full name.
"Brother Jian," Wang Linlin called sweetly.
"Ah, um..." Jian Lin blushed immediately... but it wasn't because of shame... it was probably because of embarrassment.
In fact, he has had this blushing problem since he was a child. Although he is indeed quite shy, he will also blush when he is angry, embarrassed, scared, etc., but others seem to think that he is shy every time he blushes...
Obviously Wang Linlin thought so too. Seeing the young man like this, she felt a sense of satisfaction that her charm was recognized.
She immediately put more effort into it, tugged at the corner of Jian Lin's clothes, and said softly, "Brother Yi doesn't like me talking to you, don't be angry, he's just worried about me...but I believe you're a good person!"
"..." Jian Lin had never seen such a scene before, and was immediately at a loss, not knowing what to say... He could only keep glancing towards the men's restroom, hoping that Yi Han would come back quickly and take care of this strange girl.
So when Yi Han came out, he saw Wang Linlin, who was about to cry but seemed to be in a good mood, and Jian Lin, who had a red face and looked confused.
...Will this girl tell Jian Lin the story she made up again?
Yi Han frowned, separated the two people who were standing close to each other, and pointed to the women's restroom next to him, "Go check here."
Wang Linlin didn't realize at first that she was asked to go. After all, she had not been assigned any work along the way.
"Be careful, we are all guarding outside, nothing will happen." She said to Jian Lin with concern.
Yi Han: "I'm not asking him to go, this is the women's restroom, it's not convenient for the two of us."
Wang Linlin: “……???”
The lights in the women's restroom were also flickering, and were more seriously broken than those in the men's restroom. There, the lights at least took about the same amount of time to turn on and off, but in the women's restroom, the lights were off for about 5 seconds and then on for 1 second.
Wang Linlin immediately looked aggrieved and frightened.
"Be careful, we are all guarding outside, nothing will happen." Yi Han said softly.
"I... I'm scared, can I..." Wang Linlin was about to cry.
"No, how can we, two grown men, go in with you? That would be ridiculous." Yi Han said righteously and as a matter of course.
Actually, what Wang Linlin wanted to say was, can you two go in for the checkup? I'll wait outside. But seeing Yi Han's style change from "a straight man who can't chat" to "a fierce and overbearing boss with a strong possessiveness" to "a well-behaved gentleman"... before she could react, she was pushed into the women's restroom with a sad face.
"This green tea has not grown up at all, she doesn't have any level at all..." Yi Han sighed.
Even Jian Lin couldn't be fooled, she was just a green tea in her growth period. She should be advised not to take this development path if she didn't have the talent.
After Wang Linlin was pushed into the bathroom, Yi Han considerately closed the door behind her.
There was a toilet door between them, so I didn't know if she had searched seriously, but looking at her stupid look, I guess she wouldn't have found it even if there were clues. Fortunately, Yi Han had already found the key, so this move only allowed her to gain more exploration points.
There was no good reason to let her into the men's restroom, but she couldn't lose the exploration of the women's restroom again.
Yi Han and the other person waited outside the door. After about a minute, she came inside and said tremblingly, "I didn't see the key..."
Then I wanted to push the door open.
In such a short time, it was obvious that the girl didn't look seriously. Yi Han felt that he shouldn't indulge her careless attitude, so he summoned the iron chain and gently wrapped it around the door lock.
So Wang Linlin didn't push the door open.
She panicked and slammed the door twice, shouting, "Brothers! Why can't I open this door? I want to get out!!!"
Yi Han gave Jian Lin a hint, and both of them remained silent.
Wang Linlin collapsed at this moment. There were frequent knocks on the door from inside. She pulled and pushed the door hard from the inside, but the A+ grade chain was not something a novice like her could pull open. She cried and knocked, shouting "Brother, save me" or something like that.
Yi Han wasn't sure if scaring her like this would count towards Jian Lin's GPA, but it wouldn't hurt to try.
The two of them listened to the frightened screams of the girl in the door and communicated with their eye contact.
Jian Lin: Are we going a little too far...
Yi Han: Not too much, everything is for points.
As a good boy, Jian Lin is still soft-hearted, but he is different from the real fool like NPC Xiaojiu. After experiencing a tragic betrayal and death, he will not easily trust anyone except Yi Han on the premise of maintaining friendship. Besides, this girl herself has some problems. Although he can't do this kind of malicious bullying behavior, he feels quite happy watching Yi Han do it.
The two of them locked Wang Linlin up for about ten minutes, and Jian Lin suddenly received a message on his phone that his rating had been improved.
"Sure enough, it is useful to lead the mission target to step on the scare points." Yi Han felt relieved.
There is actually no ghost in this toilet. The only thing that scares it is probably the flickering light. Therefore, the girl stayed in there for so long, which only gave Jian Lin a few extra points.
However, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and it is better to have it than not.
Since the credits for this place had already been obtained, Yi Han waved his hand and took back the chain.
The door was pushed open with a bang. Wang Linlin had just been sitting on the ground, leaning against the door and crying. At this moment, the door suddenly opened and she fell to the ground.
"Sister, how are you? The door was suddenly locked just now, and we couldn't hear your voice. We were so worried." Yi Han's tone was concerned, but he didn't even mean to reach out to help her.
