Chapter 168 Giant Amusement Park
Wang Anning thought they were going to chase the guy who escaped from the Trojan horse, but the boss suddenly said in a serious tone that they wanted to go somewhere else first.
"Should we meet up with the others first?"
Just now he also saw the small green light transformed from the jade pendant, and knew that there were companions in this direction.
"No, don't go out for a while."
Qiao Song gave a few instructions and asked Wang An Ning to hide in the dark.
Among the basic skills of the young security guard, there is one that can help him hide his tracks very well.
[Night patrol security team]
[When patrolling the community at night, if you always use a flashlight, everyone will know that the security guard is here. On the contrary, if you hold the flashlight in your hand but do not actively turn on the light, and passively enter the night patrol state, you will not be discovered by others. PS: In an absolutely dark environment, it is better to turn on the flashlight]
This skill is useful, but it has a fatal flaw: it needs to be hidden in advance and cannot be seen before patrolling, so it cannot be used when suddenly encountering the enemy.
Otherwise, Wang Anning would not have been trapped on the carousel before.
Except for the area for viewing flowers, the rest of the green belt has bushes deep enough to help players hide. After Wang Anning hid inside, it was indeed difficult for Qiao Song to find him.
But the walkie-talkie in my hand still works.
As she planned her route forward, she asked, "Why is your intercom so suppressed by the copy?"
The jade carver's skill derivative is terrifyingly powerful.
Wang Anning himself was also puzzled: "Normally, in the same copy of the game, the signal can be connected. Maybe there are too many walkie-talkies this time, so the signal is not good?"
Qiao Song always felt that there might be other reasons.
The central intersection was not far away, but this time there was no way to ride on the bear, so the two of them still wasted a lot of time. During this time, Qiao Song kept paying attention to his communicator.
No new messages received.
Aunt Huo, Tang Xiaoxiao, and even Lou Keqing should have sent her a message as soon as they were out of trouble.
The current situation shows that the two players who have just escaped from the game dilemma are other people.
Mr. Chai, the delivery boy, Jin Jiaqi, the jade carver, and the locksmith.
Who could it be…
Qiao Song switched a strand of his consciousness to the little paper man.
She is very good at paper-folding. The torso and knuckles of these little paper figures can move flexibly, but the appearance cannot be the same as a real person.
As a paper man, Qiao Song opened his eyes and saw a very wide view from top to bottom.
The paper man's body was now hidden in a tree.
The emerald green jade Buddha pendant is on the paper figure's neck.
Qiao Song picked up the pendant and took a look at it, but did not react for the time being.
The positioning function of this pendant can only be used once in a long time, and it is probably difficult to determine the position even at a close distance. Otherwise, the two players below should have thought of this method to lock her.
Let her see who is coming.
The tree that Qiao Song found was located right opposite the signpost where the staff had held their morning meeting, and he could directly see the huge map bulletin board below.
If the two players came for the map, they would definitely find a way to appear in front of the bulletin board to facilitate viewing the map, and she would definitely be able to see them in the tree.
This is true even if the other party is hiding in the bushes.
Qiao Song's eyes were always patrolling the places nearby where people could hide. Unlike the giants, the players were small and did not want to be discovered by the giant tourists, so they could only find places to hide as much as possible.
Soon, Qiao Song discovered the suspicious target.
It was a grey trash can that kept changing position.
All the trash cans currently available in the Giant Amusement Park are made of iron sheets, and are no different from the ones commonly used by humans. There are two garbage bins on the left and right, and there is a two-piece roof-style rain cover on the top.
This peculiar trash can that keeps moving is a foot-operated round barrel commonly used in households. You need to step on the pedal at the bottom and the lid of the trash can will pop open.
Such a strange and abrupt thing, turning the pulley at the bottom from time to time, quietly moved towards the signboard, and was not discovered by those tall giants.
Soon, the trash can moved to a position not far from the sign and stopped under the tree.
The lid of the barrel was quietly opened, revealing two little heads inside.
This was a combination that Qiao Song had never expected.
"Is this the location? I don't think I see any other players."
"They are not stupid, they must be hiding. Let's remember the map first."
"Oh ok, wait a minute, I'll input the navigation on my phone, I'm very good at it."
The person who was about to use his mobile phone to input the map into the navigation system was the delivery guy wearing a yellow suit and even his helmet.
The other one, the iconic woolen curly hair covered with glittering decorations, should be the player who provided the trash can prop.
Jin Jiaqi and the delivery guy?
Qiao Song was puzzled as to why these two people went together.
The person in the trash can was also confused.
The delivery guy had just successfully escaped from his own game and ran into Jin Jiaqi as soon as he went out. The other party seemed to have opened her clairvoyance and told him directly that jade could be used to locate other players.
Then he took out a prop to help him move quickly in the amusement park full of giants.
In contrast, she saved the jade positioning function and let the young man use his jade.
However, the delivery guy didn’t realize that Jade Positioning seems to be used in both directions. When you are checking other people’s location, other people can also check your location.
And the previous set of green light was not used by Jin Jiaqi.
So far, only the first escaping player and him have used the Emerald Positioning once. So how did Jin Jiaqi find himself?
The game he was in was quite remote, and who knew that this girl would be sitting on a trash can and find him as soon as she finished the game.
Jin Jiaqi’s answer was: coincidence.
"After I cleared the level, I wanted to find my companions, so I drove around in the trash can first, but I didn't expect to run into you so soon."
It’s hard to say whether she was lucky or the delivery guy was lucky, but this trash can is indeed very useful.
According to Jin Jiaqi, it is an A-level item in the cleaning copy theme.
[Good helper at home: the trash can that you get used to]
[A tidy home environment must clear away all the garbage, and the existence of the trash can must not be conspicuous, and the items in the trash can cannot be seen at a glance, otherwise it will make the home look even dirtier and messier.]
It is difficult for the giants around to notice the existence of this trash can. In such a dangerous environment, it is considered a mobile artifact.
Qiao Song on the tree also noticed this. However, while the delivery guy was carefully recording the map, Jin Jiaqi was indeed looking around.
He even looked up at the tree a few times.
After climbing up the tree, the little paper man controlled by Qiao Song crushed the leaves and dyed the paper a color. From a distance, it was difficult to find the paper man among the mottled leaves.
Jin Jiaqi retracted her gaze and asked the delivery boy: "Have you remembered it? If you have, then let's go to the nearest game and see if we can bring out the rest of our companions."
The delivery guy didn't expect her to be such an enthusiastic person and agreed immediately.
The trash can where they were hiding had a large capacity, so if they squeezed in, it should be no problem for a few more people to hide.
But he found that the girl named Jin Jiaqi did not wear the jade pendant given by the Time Jade Carver around her neck.
Is it in your pocket?
I feel a little tired. When I get along with this player, I have a very subtle feeling that I dare not fully trust her.
The young man has always been very confident in his intuition. After all, he has delivered so many takeaways and has seen all kinds of people.
It’s better to get along with the big guys. Although they are fierce, they don’t have any bad intentions.
With a little more vigilance, he and the girl moved quickly toward a destination.
The little paper man on the tree watched them leave. Qiao Song quickly determined their destination based on the direction of the trash can, the previous jade positioning, and the park map.
"A bumper car venue?"
As soon as she spoke, the voice of the young security guard came from the other end of the intercom: "Boss, what are you talking about?"
Qiao Song immediately told Wang Anning about his plan: "You continue to stay in stealth mode, don't go too fast, save some energy, and don't let those giants discover your whereabouts. Go hide in the flowerbed outside the bumper car game later. Don't come out unless I contact you."
After Qiao Song made all the arrangements for him, he started looking for a ride.
She had memorized everyone's patrol routes when the staff had their morning meeting. At this point, some staff should be moving towards the bumper cars.
Found it!
An ice cream dessert cart was being pushed by a staff member and moving along a route.
While a child was buying ice cream on the roadside, Qiao Song quickly ran out from the flower bed and quickly hid in a cardboard box in the half-open cabinet.
"It's 200 soul coins in total. Take it. This ingredient is very fresh and melts quickly, so it's best to eat it as soon as possible."
"Okay, thank you. It's really hot here. Fortunately, it's only ten o'clock now. I'm afraid it will be even hotter at noon."
"Yes, but when the weather is hot at noon and in the afternoon, the price of ice cream will increase appropriately, so it is actually very cost-effective to buy it now."
Qiao Song felt as if he heard a giant customer mutter "swindler" in a low voice.
The conversation overhead continued.
"By the way, where is your ice cream truck usually at night? I read the park description and it seems that the facilities and various rules of play in the park will change at night."
"We don't know yet. The schedule is divided into daytime and nighttime. If you are interested, you can buy tickets for the nighttime session first. There will be a lantern exhibition."
The tickets for the evening seemed to be quite expensive, so the giant just laughed and said nothing more.
Apparently, the staff selling ice cream heard that the customers felt it was too hot, so they took the initiative to recommend places to cool off.
"If you feel hot during the afternoon or at noon, you can go to the aquarium. The air conditioning is sufficient and it will be much cooler."
"There's an aquarium in the amusement park?" The customer was surprised for a moment, then immediately became alert, "Do I need to buy an extra ticket for the aquarium?"
"Yes, the price is about 2,000 soul coins. It will fluctuate slightly depending on the number of tourists that day."
The giant took a deep breath, said thank you, and quickly left with his child.
Qiao Song was digesting the huge amount of information he had obtained from these conversations, and suddenly felt a little confused.
Why is the currency unit here also soul coins? She thought it would be the game coins in the game hall.
You should pay attention to the aquarium. If you need to buy extra tickets, it means there won’t be many giants inside. After all, judging from the reactions of the tourists, not everyone is willing to spend the money.
She recalled that on the map she had seen before, there seemed to be a corner with an aquarium marked on it.
The gurgling cart continued to move forward.
The staff selling ice cream walked and stopped along the way, and completed several orders. Their speed was still much faster than Qiao Song walking by himself.
There is no risk of exposure yet.
When the ice cream cart arrived at her destination, Qiao Song did not get out of the box immediately.
It was quiet outside the car for a while. There was no sound of tourists approaching, and the staff did not make any other movements, not even the sound of them sorting the goods.
Gradually, Qiao Song reached for his toolbox and took out an electric saw.
Before pulling the trigger on the chainsaw, she seemed to have thought of something and gave up the idea of attacking.
Qiao Song even took the initiative to knock on the outer shell of the cardboard box, making a little noise, and then slowly crawled out of the box little by little.
The counter below was half open, with no doors, and just a few boxes of materials, which was why Qiao Song was able to hide in there.
At this time, all the light outside was blocked, and there was a huge creature very close to her, squatting in front of her.
An expected big face was facing Qiao Song.
The facial features are very crowded, very similar to those of humans, but the facial expression is much stiffer. Just the mouth alone can probably bite off half of Qiao Song when opened.
The ice cream guy forced out a slightly exaggerated smile, seeming a little surprised: "I thought you would jump out and attack me first, but you didn't."
After Qiao Song noticed that it was too quiet outside, he realized something was wrong: "I thought you would grab me directly, but you didn't."
The staff member raised his eyebrows in surprise, he didn't expect that there would be such a brave guy among the villains. Then he really reached out his hand, as if ready to grab her.
"Two thousand soul coins, how about a deal?"
Qiao Song's words successfully stopped the guy in work clothes.
He rolled his eyes and said, "I want five thousand."
The staff member kept his hands at the side and showed no intention of retracting them.
Qiao Song thought for a moment and didn't make too much concession: "Three thousand. If I continue to take your ride, how about three thousand each time?"
She had overheard before that the staff recommended that the aquarium ticket was 2,000 soul coins, which was enough to make the giants feel distressed, indicating that the purchasing power of 2,000 soul coins here was also very high.
The staff member with a big face thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I can't guarantee that I will wait for you to get on the bus. We have fixed working hours."
Qiao Song seemed to be waiting for him to say this: "As long as I get on the bus and find that the staff on duty is you, I will take the initiative to give you 3,000 soul coins. If I bring my companions up later, each person will be 3,000. How about that?"
This sentence successfully brought more smiles to the staff's faces.
He even turned his palm over and let Qiao Song jump onto his hand.
"You sneaked into my car just to come to the bumper car park, right? I'll take you in."
Seeing that Qiao Song did not jump up on his own initiative and seemed to turn his head to look at the environment outside, he added: "Don't worry, the bumper car hall is quite far away, and it will take a long time to gather a wave of customers in the morning. There are not many people coming for the time being, and there are no surveillance cameras around here."
There is no logical loophole in this sentence, so Qiao Song is willing to believe it for the time being.
She jumped onto the giant's palm and found that it was much harder than she thought. She had a brief confrontation with the giant tourist on the carousel before, and she found that the skin of the staff was somewhat different from that of ordinary giants.
It feels a little too hard to be human skin.
The staff, who had received extra income, provided very good service this time and placed Qiao Song directly near an exhaust fan window.
"You can go directly into the venue through this pipe without worrying about being discovered."
The ventilation fan was rotating very slowly, so Qiao Song could easily get through it.
These 3,000 soul coins seem a bit too worthwhile.
After carefully observing the staff member's hair color under his baseball cap and his facial features, Qiao Song, who saw some flaws, nodded and said thank you, leaving 3,000 soul coins in cash in his hand.
Strangely enough, although the player is so small, the soul coin taken out from the system backpack is still very large.
Climbing up the exterior wall bricks as indicated by the staff, Qiao Song soon arrived at the ventilation duct, passed through the fan blades, and walked inside along the duct.
She looked at the vents in the ceiling and quickly found her target.
The bumper car venue is much larger than expected. There are not many people in the venue now, with only three cars holding tourists.
But I don’t know if it’s to enhance the gaming experience, but there are dozens of toy cars driving and colliding, most of which are empty.
What about the players?
Qiao Song observed for a while and finally understood the dilemma of the players in this venue.
The shells of the previous cartoon-shaped bumper cars all looked like car logos, with a small round platform of about the same size.
On each platform there is a puppet of the same size as the player.
Some of the bumper cars had their heads almost fallen off and their bodies were smashed to pieces due to the violent collisions.
Qiao Song followed the bumper cars and soon discovered the puppet-sized players in the venue.
It turned out to be Mr. Chai.
The old man is now riding his own ostrich. Although he didn't get off the ground to run, he is still gasping for breath due to exhaustion.
He really didn't expect that at his age, the dungeons he entered were all sports-related!
My old bones are about to fall apart!
"Mom, he ran away again, let's go to the right!" A child immediately stuck his head out, grabbed the seat belt with one hand, and pushed his mother with the other hand.
The female giant driving the red bumper car seemed to have discovered the old man's whereabouts as well.
Not only her, but also the three bumper cars with passengers in the venue were circling around Mr. Chai.
There was a family of three in another blue bumper car. The boy sitting in the middle steered the car himself and rushed towards the car that Grandpa Chai had just jumped on while riding an ostrich.
Fortunately, the old man reacted in time and allowed the ostrich to rush to another empty car with no passengers before the car collided.
Mr. Chai actually had very little space to escape. Only when the two cars collided could he quickly jump onto the small round plate on the front of the car so that the empty car could turn quickly.
This was also the rule he figured out quickly after waking up from this space.
Only when players stand on the front of an empty car with no tourists can they step on the small round plate and actively control the direction of the car.
As for those with passengers, he jumped on them but there were none, the steering wheels were in the hands of the giant tourists.
The giants didn't want him to operate the car, so they would take the initiative to hit the empty car that Mr. Chai jumped on.
Such a small circular platform could not withstand a few collisions and would become unstable. He could only change vehicles quickly.
And once you are knocked out of the car, in such a large field, if you are crushed a few times, the player will become a rotten tomato.
The ostrich performed a great deed again this time, carrying Mr. Chai around in the air, making all the children envious.
"This is the first time I've seen a little man riding a bird. Mom, we must get this!"
Adults also know the unspoken rules of amusement parks. This kind of toy can be taken home for free. It has been quite popular in the giant pet-raising circle recently. If you don’t want to keep it anymore, you can even sell it for money.
Bringing such a unique little figure home will make you feel very proud.
However, there were three families in the venue, all fighting for a little man, and they immediately became bloodthirsty.
Old Master Chai was jumping like crazy between the front of the cars, and both the ostrich and he were almost exhausted.
Qiao Song watched for a while and didn't plan to go down to help because she saw other helpers.
The trash can driven by Jin Jiaqi and the delivery boy was actually driven sneakily into the bumper car venue and placed directly in the corner of the rest area.
Jin Jiaqi didn't know what she said to the delivery boy, but in the end, she easily hid in the trash can and didn't come out. Instead, the delivery boy died heroically and took out a bamboo helicopter and put it on his yellow helmet.
Soon, the young man flew onto a high platform nearby.
Based on Qiao Song's speculation about the skills of Yiwu's small shops, Jin Jiaqi most likely bribed and armed the delivery guy with a large number of small props.
The successful use of the bamboo dragonfly greatly boosted the morale of the delivery boy. After confirming the effect, this time he quickly raised his mobile phone and flew over the bumper car field.
"Mr. Chai, look up, I'm here to pick you up!"
The old man who had worked with him before in the mushroom pipeline soon saw him.
"Hey, young man, be careful, don't fly so low!"
Grandpa Chai rode his own ostrich and continued to dodge between bumper cars. If the delivery guy flew too high, he would not be able to catch him. If he flew too low, he would be easily reached by other giants.
"Dad, look! There's a little flying man in the sky!"
A little boy sitting next to his father was so excited that he almost jumped off the bumper car.
The child's father immediately turned the steering wheel and prepared to rush to the delivery boy.
"Hey, one by one, you thought my takeout food these years was free."
The young man straightened his yellow vest and quickly activated his skills.
[Tuanmei delivery service is fast for everything - 'The delivery is about to be overdue! ']
[During exercise, according to the deliveryman's urgency, his reaction ability and physical fitness will be greatly improved to ensure that the food is delivered to the person who ordered it in time! ]
The delivery guy put on his helmet, quickly took out a few bamboo helicopters he had prepared in advance, and rushed directly to the vicinity of Mr. Chai like a hummingbird at an extremely fast speed.
The old man who had just completed a jump was so frightened that he managed to grab his ostrich's neck and subconsciously opened his arms to catch the takeaway from the air.
"Old man, learn from me! Put this thing on your head and you can fly. You'd better put one on your ostrich too!"
Mr. Chai reacted quickly: "I can fly, why are you tiring my old friend?"
The delivery guy then realized that, yes, he was narrow-minded and the ostrich in the old man's house could be taken back.
Mr. Chai first tried using the bamboo dragonfly, and when he found that it could really hang in the air, he patted the ostrich's wings and let it go back to rest.
The black ostrich disappeared, and the children in the three bumper cars became anxious first.
"Mama, mama, the little bird is gone, and the little man is going to run away too!"
"Dad, I want the little man in the yellow vest. He's so powerful. He can make other little men fly!"
Adults are much more perceptive than children. When they realize that the little guys are trying to run away, they immediately drive the bumper cars in that direction.
Although Mr. Chai flew crookedly, he still escaped from the area very quickly.
Several giant bumper cars that crashed into each other in the back quickly chased after them, but the delivery guy took Mr. Chai in circles between several pillars in the edge area, and finally sneaked into the trash can against the wall.
The lid of the trash can was quickly closed, and before the giants' game time was over, they rolled away from the bumper car area on their small wheels.
[Ding——Friendly reminder, the current number of escapees is 6/10]
Mr. Chai and the delivery guy breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Oh, thanks to your help, I'm in great danger..."
The old man subconsciously patted his back.
The delivery boy immediately smiled and said, "That's right. It's a team game. We need to rescue and help each other, right?"
He looked at Jin Jiaqi in the corner, but found that the girl did not look particularly happy. Instead, after leaving the venue, she subconsciously took out her mobile phone to take a look, then frowned and looked at the flower bed outside the venue.
"There seems to be a player outside as well. Let's go pick him up."
The delivery boy's eyes widened: "How did you know?"
Jin Jiaqi continued without hesitation: "It's just speculation. You know I have a lot of small props. I feel like there are other players around here. They might be the ones we didn't see at the notice board before."
The delivery guy reacted: "So he found our trash can?"
"Trash cans are common household items for giants, but for players of such small stature today, the shielding effect of the item will of course be much worse with such a large size."
Jin Jiaqi finished her explanation casually and quickly took out a small conch: "Don't be afraid if you are nearby, we are companions, come over and join us."
Although she spoke very loudly, it did not attract the attention of the giant NPC passing by. Instead, there was a rustling sound coming from the bushes.
Jin Jiaqi stared at that place with some anticipation, and then a person walked out, someone she didn't want to see at the moment.
After discovering that Mr. Chai could pass the level with the help of flying props, Qiao Song, who had climbed down the ventilation duct early, gently waved his fingers and said with a smile:
"Why do you look like you don't welcome me?"
As soon as Qiao Song spoke, Jin Jiaqi reacted and said awkwardly, "No, no, I just didn't expect that you would be following me."
Qiao Song had already sent a message to the security guard Wang Anning, asking him to hide in the bushes and not come out.
And she deliberately ran to a position near the security guard.
Qiao Song narrowed his eyes and suddenly realized a problem.
After Jin Jiaqi came out of the bumper car game area, why was she so sure that there would be companions in the bushes? She didn't use the positioning effect of the jade just now.
But the young security guard was indeed in the bushes, and he was carrying jade, while Qiao Song did not.
Does this guy Jin Jiaqi have any unknown positioning methods?
And it is definitely related to jade.
The jade was given by a jade carver, who himself might be able to use a more powerful positioning effect.
The team game requires 10 people, and there were 2 teammates missing. Although Jin Jiaqi didn't go when people were being pulled in, this guy actually knew the jade carver.
In other words, there has always been contact.
