Confrontation
Where there are rules, there are loopholes.
After returning to the room, several people lay on the bed.
Although the mud house has no ceiling, no sound can be heard.
The amazing thing is that they can hear the chirping of insects at the same time, but they can't hear any other movement.
At night, the light of a watch flickered in the darkness. Someone was secretly plotting something with the watch.
The stars are twinkling and the moon is standing still quietly.
"I'll wait for you outside."
That night, the cool breeze blew Qi Jing's hair. He leaned against a tree, and the moonlight shone on the ground.
With the help of the light, Qi Jing could clearly see what was in front of him. It was a black rose.
It shines in the dark night.
"Ding!" The watch automatically recognized the black rose.
"Black Rose, 50 points, admitted?"
The small screen showed yes, without even a no option.
Qi Jing's mouth twitched slightly, and he paused without changing his expression.
"Ha, you're really lucky."
Following the sound, Qi Jing saw the person in the tree.
"You've been here a long time ago?"
Shi Yuncheng chuckled and looked at him: "That's not right, I haven't gone back to sleep yet."
Qi Jing's eyes darkened. Both faces were shrouded in darkness and could not be seen clearly.
"You should know my rule that you can't lie."
Qi Jing didn't rush to answer him because he thought of his own rule - he couldn't refute the other party.
"Why did you ask me out? You can't be here to chat."
Qi Jing leaned against the tree and looked up at Shi Yuncheng who was sitting on a tree not far away.
"Hahaha, Qi Jing, why aren't you like this usually?"
"Look at you, you're covered in thorns. You're totally different from your usual well-behaved self."
After accepting Hua, Qi Jing just looked at him. Since he couldn't refute, he could choose not to reply to him. After all, the rules didn't say he had to respond.
Seeing that no one was talking, he felt unconscious: "I need you to act out a play with me tomorrow."
"A play that is so real it's hard to tell the difference!"
Qi Jing: "What do I need to do?"
Hearing his answer, Shi Yuncheng knew that he agreed. He jumped down from the tree and walked straight to him.
"I need you to pretend to be bitten by a snake with me tomorrow and then go to the other rooms to find their rule cards."
Qi Jing took a step back, putting some distance between them: "Why me?"
Shi Yuncheng smiled and said, "You and I are on the same boat. Why you?"
Qi Jing didn't want to think about it. He had realized that Shi Yuncheng was just looking for someone to take the blame. If he was discovered, the fire might be divided into two groups.
One group burned him, and the other group burned themselves.
"What if I don't agree?"
Qi Jing approached Shi Yuncheng with his hands in his pockets, and the moonlight just happened to hit his eyes.
Shi Yuncheng was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting him to disagree.
"Qi Jing, you will agree. I know what you want."
"You should have noticed. From the beginning until now, the people around us or even the habits we've used have told us that we shouldn't be the way we are now. Perhaps it's better to say we're not ourselves."
Shi Yuncheng stared into his eyes and said, "I'm used to staying close to Wang Shitou, who I have a crush on. You're staying close to Shu Yan. People's feelings and habits won't lie."
"You're searching for your own memories. After we returned from the unfinished building, the pattern on the room's ceiling symbolized our original selves. You're not the student about to graduate from college in my memory, and I'm not some dandy kid who's studied abroad."
"We are not ourselves, and the world is not what it is now. The so-called notary office is just hiding the lost truth."
"If you weren't doubting me, why did you choose me from among so many people when you first came into this world?"
"I think we should have known each other before, because it feels right, right?"
Shi Yuncheng picked a daisy, held it tightly in his hand, and then released it: "We should be familiar but not intimate."
"It's different from me and Wang Shitou and you and Shu Yan."
"Don't you want to go back? Are you willing to live in this world not knowing when you will die?"
Qi Jing remained motionless, looking into his eyes: "No, I admit what you said. But you are wrong about one thing. I knew who I was from the beginning, and I also knew who you were."
"Shi Yuncheng, I have never been affected by this world from the beginning. It is you who have been affected and deprived of your memories!"
