Chapter 17 Joy Square Such a sweet lamb should not appear in...
——"Oh, don't worry, this is just the beginning."
——"Did you see a man appear next to him? Do you think he would like it?"
——"You look so boring, like a stagnant pool of water."
An Rao had a long dream. In the dream, there were no scary monsters, no bullying and isolation, no betrayal and lies. All the people he once cherished were smiling at him. In the dream, he could even fly, lightly and innocently, flying and flying. Then, there was a gunshot, and he fell from a high altitude, descending... descending... and finally fell into a solid embrace, which was not warm but reassuring. An Rao raised his head to try to see the owner of the embrace clearly, but the dazzling light made it impossible for him to see clearly. All he saw was a pure black earring without any white feathers on it.
An Rao woke up and found himself lying alone in a clean, bright room, on a soft and comfortable bed with fluffy pillows of just the right height. The temperature in the room was just right, and the room was dark without the lights on. A little light came in through the gaps in the curtains that were not completely drawn.
An Rao tried to sit up, but found that every movement made his whole body hurt. Where was this place? The bumpy feeling on the sea surface had completely disappeared, and the room was obviously modernly decorated. In fact, with his extraordinary intuition, An Rao felt that everything in this room was deliberately catering to his preferences.
"Boss, you're awake!" Su Ming appeared from nowhere and sat down beside An Rao's bed without any courtesy. He grabbed An Rao's hand and shouted excitedly.
An Rao immediately pulled back his hand: "Where is this? What happened?" Then he was startled by his own hoarse voice.
"Hey!" Su Ming was so excited that his hands and feet were shaking. "You fainted as soon as you walked out of the exit of the pirate ship. It was Brother Bo who carried you here. It has been two days since you fainted! You have been running a fever and talking nonsense all the time!"
"What did I say?"
"Say..." Su Ming tilted his head and tried to recall, "I remember now! You didn't seem to be speaking Chinese!"
?
I haven’t seen any English since I passed the Level 6 English Test in college. What other languages can I speak?
"Bai Chuan is gone?" An Rao looked around and found that there was no one else in the room except himself and Su Ming.
"Brother Bo," Su Ming shook his head blankly, "I don't know when he left after carrying you here. I was so flustered at the time that I didn't pay much attention..."
It's not surprising. For a lone ranger like Baichuan, being willing to help move himself to the room is already a great kindness.
An Rao stopped thinking about Bai Chuan, swallowed hard and asked, "Is there any water?"
"No," Su Ming scratched his head, "We can only go to the food court to eat and drink. I can't bring any food out. Sorry, boss..."
Oh yes, Article 7 of the “Garden Guide” prohibits eating and drinking in areas outside the food court. I don’t know what this weird rule is for.
An Rao nodded slightly to show his understanding, and said nothing more. His clothes changed back to the classic white shirt and black pants outfit he wore when he entered the amusement park. The "Ship's Log" that he had been holding in his hand disappeared, and only the amusement park map was left in his pocket.
An Rao took out the map and unfolded it. A golden iris pattern stamp was printed on the blank space next to the pirate ship icon. The Eagle Dynasty where the Duke of Newcastle lived was the famous Iris Dynasty in the 17th century. Could it be that the games in the amusement park were historical puzzle-solving games?
"Boss, you don't know. Your coma was so scary! This lousy amusement park doesn't even have an infirmary. You were so burned that we could fry eggs on you!" Su Ming interrupted An Rao's train of thought and said with lingering fear, "Then someone brought us here and helped you check in. Luckily that person helped, otherwise we would have to sleep on the street!"
"Anyone? Checking in?" An Rao got the key information. "How do you pay?"
"Just, I just touched your wristband." Su Ming didn't understand.
It's so expensive here! You can spend two million just to play a game. Although that money is free, I would rather sleep on the street than be robbed by the amusement park!
"How much per night?!" An Rao began to feel heartbroken. He had already slept for two nights without knowing it. What had passed was not time, but his money!
"Well... it's not expensive, only 10 points a night."
That's all? That's all! 10 points is 100,000 yuan! Why are kids so extravagant nowadays?
An Rao wanted to throw off the quilt, get out of bed and check out.
"And boss, you know, we are the first three people out, so we will get points as rewards. I was rewarded with 300 points for third place!" Su Ming became excited when he said this.
oh?
An Rao raised his hand and looked at his wristband. The 500 that had made him so distressed before had now become 1280. In addition, there were five unread messages:
[Dear X Bank general card user, 8 million was transferred into your account ending in 2876, and the balance is 13,003,610 yuan. ]
[Dear X Bank general card user, your account with the last digit 2876 has transferred out 100,000 yuan, and the balance is 12.90361 million yuan. ]
[Dear X Bank general card user, your account ending in 2876 transferred out 100,000 yuan, and the balance is 12.80361 million yuan. ]
[You have a gift from the amusement park: "Mary Rose's Logbook", would you like to receive it? ]
[You have a gift from the Duchess of Newcastle: a golden dagger. Would you like to accept it? ]
There is indeed money to be made!
An Rao had been thinking that each person only had 600 points, and if playing a game cost 100 points, then 600 points would only be enough for a player to play six games without eating, drinking, or making any other purchases.
But this is the perfect mode. The amusement park will never miss any opportunity for players to spend money, such as the shot they fired in the pirate ship before. Otherwise, players will have no motivation to enter the game at all.
That is to say, if the player's points are just enough for the player to finish six games and go home, then the initiative of when to play the games is in the hands of the player. However, having a room to stay in and food to eat means extra expenses. Once there is a points gap, the player must play the recreational projects and work hard to earn points.
What would happen if the money was spent before the six games were finished? This amusement park must have other ways to make money, not to mention... An Rao looked down at his bank information, and there was also financial incentive.
"By the way, boss, do you want to eat something? I'll take you to eat?" Su Ming asked.
"Wait a moment." An Rao said in a hoarse voice, and clicked "yes" on the two "Do you receive" buttons with his fingers.
In an instant, the pattern of a cartoon book and a golden dagger appeared on the screen of his wristband. An Rao clicked on the icon of the cartoon book, and the option of "take out" appeared on the screen. He tapped "yes" with his fingertips again, and a book fell out of the wristband screen in a way that was completely contrary to the laws of physics.
"What is this?" Su Ming widened his eyes.
"Don't you want to know what's going on?" An Rao threw the book that just fell out to Su Ming, "Take it and read it."
Su Ming took the thick leather notebook with suspicion. The cursive English letters of "Mary Rose's Log" on the notebook perked him up.
IMO's gold medal elementary school bully was flipping the pages quickly, and just like An Rao's reaction before, he was flipping slower and slower as time went on, with more and more interjections that needed to be muted.
"We are far away from the mainland, the weather is very good, the Duke and Duchess are very satisfied with this voyage. I think we have entered the center of the Atlantic Ocean. There is no trace of land around us. The scenery on the sea is very good, and whales and dolphins can often be seen jumping."
"We saw ships in the distance. It was heart-warming to see human beings on the vast ocean. I think we have enough water and food. If they need help, we can lend a helping hand."
"That ship is flying a pirate flag. We have encountered pirates! But I don't think we need to worry. After all, the Mary Rose is the pride of the Eagle Kingdom Royal Navy. I think our distinguished Duke and Duchess of Newcastle can even accomplish a military feat during their honeymoon!"
"No! They're calling!"
"Fortunately, the Duke of Newcastle and Le Fay have already hidden the noble Duchess and Miss Jenny. I think we should be fine."
"My God, they actually want to kill the noble Duke of Newcastle. They have looted the entire warship! I am hiding in the captain's room writing all this. I think I will die soon."
"Oh my God! In order to save his life, the Duke of Newcastle actually told the pirates the hiding places of the Duchess and Miss Jenny just like that despicable witch Le Fay!"
"I heard the Duchess' screams and cries, I heard the pirates' vulgar scolding and wanton laughter, oh, God, please forgive my cowardice!"
"As a member of the Eagle Kingdom Royal Navy, I have decided not to hide anymore. I am ashamed of the Duke of Newcastle's choice. Goodbye. I will fight to the death for my ship and country. May God bless us."
After that there was endless blankness, and it was obvious that the captain was dead.
"I see..." Su Ming closed the log and returned it to An Rao, "That's why you were able to confirm that the death rule is touching gold, silver and jewelry. That's why you were able to guess that the boss is a princess. That's why you dared to negotiate with the boss princess after breaking the death rule and summoning her, because you know what she wants..."
"Well, the last rule of the pirate ship game is not difficult to guess," An Rao repeated while counting on his fingers, "After 'Don't' there are four blacked-out words, which should be 'Trust the Captain'. Don't trust the Captain."
Don't trust the captain. No matter what he asks you to do, he will just send you to the boss to die.
"Boss, you are so strong..." Su Ming had a look of admiration on his face, and the stars in his eyes could not be hidden.
An Rao said nothing. He took the read diary from Su Ming's hand and tried to touch the wristband with the hard corner of the cowhide book. Then, the diary "whoosh" went into the wristband in a way that was completely contrary to the laws of physics.
Betrayal, the maid betrayed her master, the duke betrayed his lady, the cook betrayed the innocent boy, the pirate captain betrayed his crew, no matter how well those malicious intentions are decorated, they will eventually be revealed inadvertently.
However, betrayal was something An Rao was very familiar with, and the hypocritical face of his roommate appeared in front of him again.
"Let's go out and have a drink of water." An Rao got out of bed, tidied his clothes, touched his lips which were cracked due to thirst, and took Su Ming out. Although they had spent four days and nights on the pirate ship, the ride time on the pirate ship was actually only four minutes. An Rao, who had just recovered from a serious illness, had no appetite, but the high fever for two days and two nights made him very dehydrated.
This is the 14th floor. My room is 1429, which is separated from the end of the corridor by 1430. The floor is covered with thick carpet so there is no sound when you walk on it. The two elevators are in the middle of the corridor, proving that this hotel has a traditional straight-line structure with east and west wings. There are rooms on both sides of the corridor, and the escape route is built in the middle of the two elevators.
The design of such old-style resort hotels is almost obsolete, and this is definitely not a newly opened amusement park.
"Do you live at 1430?" An Rao asked while waiting for the elevator.
"Ah? No, I live across from you. I wonder if anyone lives at 1430."
"Ding." The elevator arrived. An Rao stopped talking and walked into the elevator with Su Ming. There were already three people in the elevator. Just like meeting strangers in a hotel, they had no desire to talk to each other, but An Rao felt that someone's eyes were on him, as if they were exploring and observing him.
It's just that I've experienced too many times of being looked at, explored, desired, and calculated, and I've become accustomed to these bad intentions.
From the moment the elevator door opened to the hotel lobby, there were more and more probing and calculating looks. Even Su Ming, who was like a little fool, noticed something was wrong: "Boss, do you feel like someone is watching us..."
"Look if you want to. It won't hurt you to look." The young man was wearing a simple white shirt and black pants. Although he looked sick, he still couldn't hide his handsome looks. His pale skin was revealed from his collar which was slightly open with two buttons, giving him a shocking sickly beauty. His long neck, slender wrists and waist that could be held in one hand really made people want to abuse him.
Such a sweet lamb should not be among the beasts.
