Chi Mu was shocked by He Shang's expression, thinking that this He Shang was indeed not an ordinary person. His condition suddenly got worse after eating coriander!
"Play, what game?"
Chi Mu asked tentatively, a game played by a group of mentally ill people might not be acceptable to normal people.
"The game is very simple. If you are willing to play, I will introduce it to you. However, this game can only be played by four people. If you don't want to play, you and another person will stand guard at the door."
He Shang said quietly.
Chi Mu thought about it and decided to join their game.
After all, in the game, it is possible to find out which one of them is the normal person.
He thought that there was a normal person in the same ward with him, but now everyone looked nervous.
So it is very likely that the normal person is pretending to be stupid or mentally ill.
If Chi Mu didn't look for it himself, he would never know who the normal person was.
"I'll join your game."
"Okay, then let the eldest and fourth brothers keep watch today. If the doctor comes, knock on the door and notify him immediately!"
He Shang said to the eldest and fourth brothers.
After the two of them left, only Chi Mu, He Shang, the second senior brother and the third senior brother were left in the ward.
Chi Mu recalled the rules in the mental hospital's regulations and rule sequence one, and there was no risk of breaking any rules when playing games with them.
He Shang said: "The game we play is very simple, it's called 'Four Corners Game', the way to play is...
There are four corners in the room, and four people stand in the four corners of the room, facing the wall and not looking left or right. One person initiates the action, walks counterclockwise to the next person's position, and then taps that person's shoulder to replace his position.
The person who was tapped on the shoulder continued to move to the next position, and so on. Logically, after repeating this three times, the fourth person would return to the original corner, which was empty.
When encountering an empty seat, the person must also make a shoulder tapping gesture, then cough, wait quietly for five seconds, and then move on to the next seat to start a new round of shoulder tapping. "
Chi Mu understood the rules of the game easily, but it sounded like nothing new, and there was no communication between the four people.
It seems like a meaningless game.
He Shang saw through Chi Mu's thoughts and said with a smile, "Does it sound boring?"
"For now, it does sound boring. The game follows the rule that there is always one person moving forward, and in theory, you can hear coughing in every round. It doesn't seem to have any fun."
Chi Mu answered truthfully.
At this time, the second brother smiled innocently and explained: "The highlight of this game is that you must turn off the lights to play, and leave a lit candle in the middle of the room. Something very creepy will happen in the middle of the game!"
He Shang agreed, "Yes, once the game starts, it cannot be stopped until the candles are burned out."
"So if you encounter anything unbelievable while playing the game, no one should stop, just keep going and complete your tasks until everything returns to normal and the game is over."
Finally, Chi Mu heard something frightening from He Shang's words.
This seems more like a taboo game passed down orally among the people.
For example, it is very popular in the countryside, never comb your hair in front of the mirror at midnight...
——"This game sounds interesting. I'll call three friends to try it out later."
——"Why did Chi Mu want to participate in their game? John from the United States refused He Shang to play this game. In the world of ghost stories, shouldn't we avoid unnecessary trouble?"
——"Yes, yes, I just found a rule now. While I have time now, I should walk around the courtyard more often. Maybe I can find new rules."
Qin Jianghe, a member of the Dragon Country think tank, also felt that Chi Mu’s approach was somewhat unwise this time.
Now it seems that the primary goal is to find other rules, rather than wasting time playing games with a bunch of psychopaths.
A researcher asked Qin Jianghe: "Mr. Qin, do you want to use this opportunity to tell Chi Mu not to play this game with them?"
Qin Jianghe shook his head and said, "Don't waste the opportunity to give a hint. Chi Mu must have his reasons for playing this game with them."
"We should trust Chi Mu unconditionally. He is the one who has completed three consecutive SS-level missions for Longguo. We have already seen his abilities."
.......
He Shang took out a candle from somewhere, which was a prohibited item in the mental hospital.
Chi Mu planned to ask He Shang where he got the candle after the game.
There is no other way to obtain contraband in a mental hospital except from a doctor.
But how could a doctor possibly satisfy a mentally ill patient's request for contraband?
"Okay, let the game begin."
He Shang lit a candle and turned off the lights in the ward. The light in the entire room suddenly became dim, and the atmosphere became very strange.
Chi Mu and others stood at the four corners of the wall respectively. The action was initiated by He Shang, and Chi Mu was in the last position.
Because the rules of the game prohibit participants from looking left or right, they can only look forward or at the wall.
So Chi Mu could only see He Shang standing in front of him.
He Shang walked quickly towards his second senior brother.
He Shang walked behind the second senior brother and patted him on the shoulder. The second senior brother continued to walk towards the third senior brother and patted him on the shoulder.
The third senior brother walked behind Chi Mu and patted him on the shoulder. Then Chi Mu walked towards the corner where He Shang had stood at the beginning. This corner was now empty.
