Chapter 306 Word Game
Lin Jiu believed that the invitees selected by this manor would meet at least one condition.
It is mentioned in the copy introduction and rules that as long as you win the final victory in the game, you will receive generous rewards.
Although I don't know what exactly it is, this reward is definitely something that those invited here cannot refuse. It's either money, power, or something else.
Of course, it is not ruled out that this is just a gimmick.
If this is the case, then the common points between the selected people are most likely not something external, but something internal.
Inner....
Another hour and a half passed in Lin Jiu's intermittent thinking. At this time, Lin Jiu was on the balcony of a room on the second floor, half leaning on the railing. When he heard the bell, he was stunned for a moment.
Not knowing what he had been thinking about for nearly twenty minutes, Lin Jiu scratched his head and moved a few steps to the side.
It can be considered as changing my hiding place.
Lin Jiu's eyes were empty and he was dazed for a while. After he came to his senses, he immediately concentrated, as if the little fool who had been standing there blankly, not knowing what he was thinking, was not him.
After standing on the balcony for a while, Lin Jiu slowly set out again to find the strange "journey" of looking for the man wearing glasses.
The garden was very quiet. The roses did not continue to grow and stopped at a height of about two meters.
From a distance it looks like a cornfield.
Especially weird.
The garden that seemed to have turned into a huge maze was more suitable for thrilling life-and-death chases. Lin Jiu felt that the strange figure whose name was still unknown would most likely not appear outside the manor.
This feeling made Lin Jiu even more certain that the guy had a secret that was somewhat related to this copy.
Perhaps, the other party knows this manor very well.
Or this so-called game of hide and seek.
The rose in his hand remained motionless. Lin Jiu didn't know whether the others had found the three "hiders" and were secretly assisting them, but it was a good thing that the "ghost" had not gained anything.
Lin Jiu passed through the room and came to the corridor. He felt that he could hope for another chance encounter around the corner.
However, this time, what came before the chance encounter at the corner was the sudden sound of footsteps behind him.
Lin Jiu paused.
He seemed to have encountered the strange phenomenon mentioned in the daily rules.
[2. If you hear footsteps or whispers behind you when you are alone, please ignore them and return to your room immediately. You can resume your free activities after ten minutes.]
Lin Jiu frowned slightly.
The layout inside the manor has been disrupted like a tangled piece of wool. Although there are house numbers, even Lin Jiu cannot guarantee that he can "return to his room immediately" if he wants to find his room quickly.
There is no way.
I can only seek help from plug-ins.
Sorry, he won't be acting anymore, he's going to open another one.
Lin Jiu didn't even need to speak up, as the route was thoughtfully posted in the frame.
Lin Jiu silently gave a thumbs up.
An expression appeared in the lower right corner of the prompt box: (ω)
With the help of the hints, Lin Jiu quickly found his room.
Because he did not return to the room immediately, before entering the room, the footsteps behind him were quite close to Lin Jiu, only a few steps away.
Lin Jiu estimated in his mind that he would need to return to the room within three minutes.
This is not a lot of time.
After closing the door, the footsteps disappeared, and the temperature, which had been dropping continuously, quickly rose again.
But Lin Jiu did not let his muscles relax.
Because there’s something more to come after this.
It is currently known that if you hide in a room for a certain period of time during the game, a Black Rose waiter will come to your door, and you must ignore him and leave the room immediately.
Lin Jiu had been in the room for less than five minutes when the Black Rose waiter came up and knocked on the door.
However, he was currently under the rule of needing to stay in his room for a full ten minutes.
Here comes the problem.
What should I do next?
Through what happened just now, Lin Jiu can be sure that if this rule is violated, the victim will die. There is no target to attack, so he must abide by it.
Lin Jiu must stay in the room for these ten minutes.
If we want to solve this problem, we can only start with the Black Rose Waiter.
Lin Jiu sat down on the sofa calmly, and the fruit knife appeared silently in his hand.
Ignore it....need to leave the room immediately....
You must stay in the room for ten minutes.
Lin Jiu's brain is working fast.
There was no dead end in the dungeon, and he was sure there must be a solution other than a head-on confrontation with the Black Rose Waiter.
Unconsciously, Lin Jiu's gaze fell on the balcony.
.....
The time has come to eight minutes.
Lin Jiu stood on the balcony, enjoying the night breeze for eight minutes and being in a daze for another eight minutes.
The reason for enjoying the fresh air on the balcony is simple.
The daily rules state that [you can return to your room and wait ten minutes before continuing to move freely.]
Another rule mentioned "Hide in a room for a certain period of time."
This is a word game.
Regarding the first rule, Lin Jiu naturally stayed in his room and did not run around; and regarding the second rule, Lin Jiu simply moved from inside the room to outside the room.
How can a balcony be considered “inside” a room?
Seeing that there were only two minutes left for Lin Jiu to continue moving freely, it was enough to prove that Lin Jiu's approach was correct.
Lin Jiu looked up, hinted to the people outside, and then sat on the sofa, staring at the countdown given in the prompt box in a daze.
After a while, he entered a state of empty eyes again.
There was no need to even guess the clue, his master would definitely start thinking about this and that again.
Fortunately, after two minutes, Lin Jiu came back to his senses.
He stood up and walked out of the room, but he didn't think about meeting her again at the corner.
Lin Jiu always felt that if he kept talking about it, he would encounter some strange incident again.
Maybe his feeling was right. After turning left and right for a while, Lin Jiu finally met the strangeness he was looking for.
But this time it wasn't a chance encounter around the corner.
Ryan was running in the corridor, obviously being chased by something. When he saw Lin Jiu, his expression changed slightly, as if he was surprised and surprised.
Lin Jiu didn't know what was chasing him, but it looked very anxious.
He originally thought that the other party would just run past him and at best just give him a warning, but he didn't expect that he would be dragged along and run away with them.
Lin Jiu:?
After a moment of hesitation, he started running.
"Is there a 'ghost' chasing you?"
Having said that, Lin Jiu didn't think it was similar.
