End of experience
After everyone was seated, Hu Tingfeng revealed her biggest bargaining chip.
"There are fifteen rooms on the second floor. Excluding friend Chen's and my room, you still need to explore thirteen."
"When you have finished exploring all the rooms, two messages will pop up on all of your watches. One will ask you how to solve the "homeowner's pain," and the other will ask who your lover is."
The hidden rule of this game is that once you step into any room on the second floor, your survival time is shortened to three days, and the Duke will no longer die from illness, because during this period of time, the Duke will remember everything, including his lover.
"Bang---" As she finished speaking, the door of the room was suddenly opened, but her room was not the only one opened.
The dark room was eerie, Hu Tingfeng slowly disappeared from their sight, and everyone was pushed by a mysterious force to any room.
The moment they stepped into the room, the same mechanical voice that had surrounded them from the beginning rang out: "Welcome to the immersive protagonist. This is a two-day experience. Participants here will play the role of passers-by. After the experience, we will give you a questionnaire. I will give you a day to discuss your answers. Those who answer correctly will receive a ticket to the outside world, while those who answer incorrectly will remain here in pain forever."
"A friendly reminder: don't overempathize. We'll treat excessive emotions as failure. Don't try to stop the protagonist from experiencing anything, as this will only make them suffer more. Finally, I wish you all peace!"
After the mechanical voice stopped, everyone was pushed into the room, and the dark corridor was lit up. After the door closed, two people appeared in the corridor, with smiles on their lips, and the posture of a victor.
Sometimes everything seems to be going so smoothly, so smoothly that one can't help but recall what they have forgotten.
Those who were locked in the room would not know which dummies had been standing at their door and banging their heads against the wall for the past two days.
Bang,
Bang,
Bang,
The sound of "banging" filled the entire castle. They seemed to be smashing the walls with their heads, pounding without knowing the pain or fatigue.
These sounds were heavenly music to the Duke's ears, and if accompanied by painful wails, they would be their best medicine.
Taking advantage of the situation is their usual tactic, and putting themselves in a vulnerable position is the best way to gain sympathy and trust. If they add a black and white rap, it would be even better.
Everyone was assigned a room randomly, but by chance, Zhang Heqian was assigned to a residence he was familiar with.
The scenes in the dream were vivid and lively, but the reality was cruel. The moment he stepped into the room and closed the door, the dream he had created for himself collapsed.
Zhang Heqian was sent away in his sleep. He didn't remember much, except that he drank a bowl of sugar water his brother handed him and fell asleep. When he woke up, he was in a room called an orphanage. An elderly woman sat beside him. She said she was the director of the orphanage and had been taking in unwanted children since she was 30.
"An unwanted child?" Zhang Heqian, who had just woken up and whose voice was still hoarse, only heard this sentence, and his mind went blank. He thought, "How could he be unwanted? Where's my brother? He's not an unwanted child, he's not!"
"elder brother!'
"elder brother!"
He was so limp that he couldn't move. He could only cry out at the top of his lungs, trying to make his brother hear his voice, trying to make his brother relent and take him away. He thought that his brother didn't want him because he was too noisy, and he thought that his brother was tired of him and didn't want him because he was disobedient.
No matter how he threw a tantrum or went on a hunger strike, he couldn't leave this place, nor could he find his brother.
He cried every day until the old woman who took care of him started to get tired of him and beat him. He cried until he ran away from the orphanage at the age of fourteen.
This welfare home appears to be a charity organization, but in fact it is a tool for the old lady's family to make money. They have raised a large number of children through trafficking, adoption, and abandonment, and then started trading with some businessmen through the media, whether it is organs or blood, or promoting the businessmen's products through the media to maintain their superficial vanity.
There was another boy who escaped with him. The boy was caught the next day after he escaped. He was arrested by the police for chasing people on the street and asking if they had seen his brother. He was eventually diagnosed with mental illness by a doctor and was put into a very strict local mental hospital.
In fact, when he was crying while grabbing passersby, a young lady felt sorry for him and asked him where his home was, so that he could go home and visit.
He was about to speak when the police arrived and tackled him to the ground and put him in a car. He yelled at the girl, "My home is in Xili, the west of east and west, the inside and outside of inside. I want to go home, I want to find my brother, I was kidnapped."
After the police car drove away, a passerby searched for the place on her navigation system, but it turned out to be nowhere. The man next to her switched to another app on his phone to search, but still couldn't find the place.
"There are only three possible scenarios. One is that there really is no such place. Two is that it exists but is not listed in the navigation system, perhaps because it is too remote. Three is that it has been removed from the list. In this case, all the people in the village, including the houses, have disappeared, and it has truly become a wasteland."
The man took a sip of water and said to the still dazed woman, "Let's go. Judging from his condition, this should be the first case. Besides, he looks crazy. I guess the address he gave is wrong."
The woman looked at the direction where the police car left from afar, thinking to herself, how could someone who missed home so much not remember the name of his home.
All she could do was to remind him that it was wrong to look for someone blindly and that he could just go back and take a look. She was just an ordinary person and didn't have much power or ability to take him home.
In the room, he saw himself being forced into a car, his brother being stepped on, and other people lying beside him. They were all from their village. He saw blood on their bodies. The nanny who usually liked to pick beans at the intersection was also lying in a pool of blood, with no life on her face. He saw his brother struggling desperately, shouting his name loudly.
“Congratulations on the money! Congratulations on the money…”
He struggled desperately and said, "Give my brother back to me, you scum!"
Zhang Heqian didn't understand why that group of people came here to kill until the scene in front of him changed.
He then realized that his mother was a top professor in a research institute, and her main research direction was in non-natural science fields. This research was in conflict with existing scientific research, and once this research was successful, all atheistic remarks would be overturned, and society would start a new model, and those who were rich and powerful would have to start from scratch.
Some people wanted the research to succeed, while others wanted it to fail in the womb. Unfortunately, although the research did not fail in the womb, it became a forbidden fruit.
My mother was forced to give up her research and leave the city to come to this remote village. In addition to her luggage, she also brought a USB flash drive, a USB flash drive containing all her research, including the research that almost died in the womb.
When the mother threatened to leave the institute, the research had actually been successful, but when she was happily preparing to submit it to her leader, she received the news of her leader's death.
She jumped from the 20th floor. The cause of death was unknown, and no one knew why. It wasn't until three years after she was exiled to this small place that she received a scheduled text message on her phone. The message was concise, with only one sentence: "Unknown place, where I've been, we made it!"
Zhang Heqian was a vague memory to his mother because she picked him up on the roadside. Three years after she found him, she disappeared. The day before she disappeared, she gave him to Yu Yan, along with the USB drive and some savings.
This group of people came here just for the USB flash drive, but the USB flash drive disappeared many years ago and will never be seen again. However, this group of people don't believe it because the excuse is too poor.
He saw that there were several other people imprisoned with his brother. Some of them said that their parents had never given them the USB flash drive. Some said they knew nothing, and some disappeared out of thin air just like Yu Yan said. However, everything they said was considered as quibbling by that group of people.
When the gun was pointed at their heads, the first person to disappear was the one who said he knew nothing. Then all the biological children of the participants in the study disappeared. Only Yan and another person who did not have a USB drive were left.
Everyone present was shocked. They cursed and killed the only remaining person. When the gun was pointed at Yu Yan, unlike those who disappeared immediately, Yu Yan's body disappeared bit by bit.
Compared to others, Zhang Heqian's room is considered good.
The protagonist of Lin Nuan's Room is a woman who lives with domestic violence every day. Ma Liangchen is a poor, honest, and cowardly student who dared not say a word when surrounded and slapped at school. Shu Yan's story follows a man named Chen Cheng, who comes from a wealthy family but is disabled. He has an older brother and a younger sister. His parents treat him like a nobody. The girl he likes also looks down on him, calling him a cripple. No one in his family cares about him, except his aunt, who cared for him since childhood. Later, his aunt was taken away by the family due to her age, and he has since become a completely invisible person in the family, someone who is not even remembered at family gatherings. Slowly, his heart begins to twist. He schemes to cause his dancing sister to break her leg, thus ending her dream of dancing. He schemes to turn his brother into a vegetable. He schemes to have another woman climb into his father's bed and leak photos. Later, he schemes to have his mother caught in an affair.
When everything he did was discovered, his parents scolded him as a murderer and a beast, and his sister also scolded him as a bitch. He smiled happily that day, because they finally got their retribution.
It was clearly my brother who was disabled. If he hadn't insisted on dragging him to the side of the road, he wouldn't be disabled. He always remembers the feeling of the tires running over his legs. My legs could have been cured that year, but you didn't treat them because my sister said it was a waste of money and I should have enrolled myself in a dance class. Is my life less important than that money? It's clear that our family is very rich. Mom, you can buy me one less bag, and it doesn't matter if my sister enrolls in dance class later! You would rather spend 400,000 or 500,000 yuan to buy a car for my brother and a dance class for my sister, and buy bags and watches for yourselves, than spend 400,000 or 500,000 yuan on my medical treatment. Am I not your child? Am I not a human being?
The protagonist of Qi Jing's room is Liu Zhaodi, a girl whose name suggests a miserable life. The room is a flat tiled house with only a bed and a shabby cabinet in it. The lights in the room are also dim.
The perspective starts after Liu Zhaodi's mother passed away. At that time, Liu Zhaodi's clothes were still clean, but there was a sense of helplessness in her eyes. She was still carrying a schoolbag and standing in the middle of a group of men. The man in the lead should be her father.
The man said to her, "Zhao Di, you are 16 years old this year, a grown-up girl. Your mother has been dead for two years. Our family is very poor now. You are the only girl in our family and we don't have any boys. Daddy is planning to marry another one to give you a brother. But you know, marrying a wife costs money. Daddy has emptied our family's bank by letting you go to school all these years. Look at these uncles and aunts. They are willing to give Daddy some money so that he can marry a wife. To repay them, you can sleep with them. When you wake up, Daddy can find you a stepmother to give you a brother."
For a malnourished sixteen-year-old girl, escaping from this group of people was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
The village was dark. That night marked the beginning of her nightmare. Instead of giving her virginity to her lover, it was taken away by a group of beasts. She wanted to die. Perhaps seeing her thoughts, after everyone was done, her biological father also enjoyed her body. Afterwards, he chained her up and imprisoned her like a dog. The next day, her father married a new wife, a woman who had been abducted like her mother.
She lived like this day by day. Many people came every day, but she didn't want to look at them, so she closed her eyes every time. Among these people were her teachers, her uncle, her classmates, and several people she called grandpa.
After suffering again and again, she finally found a breakthrough. That was her stepmother's younger brother. Fortunately, her stepmother did not inherit his father's genes. She pitifully told her stepmother that she needed a piece of paper and a pen to talk to his mother first.
The younger brother's mother was imprisoned in a different place from her. Ever since he was born and could remember, his mother had been crying every day. He thought that his mother was crying because there was no one to talk to. He thought that if there was someone to talk to her, she would stop crying, so he agreed to her request.
What he didn't know was that on the night he gave her the pen and paper, she used the pen to kill the man who came to her room to enjoy herself, and she also used the pen to end her own life.
The next day, when her brother joyfully went to retrieve her letter, he found a crowd gathered at her door. He watched her being carried out of the room. The sun shone down on her body, and the blood on her neck had dried. Her hand still tightly grasped the pen. As a young boy, he watched her being thrown into a large pit. A group of men piled dirt over her until a small hill formed.
On the way back, he picked up a piece of bloodstained paper. He recognized it as the one he gave her. She couldn't understand what was written on it and thought it was a message she wrote to her mother, so she took the paper and hurried to see her mother.
He expected his mother to be happy after seeing the paper, but his mother died the next day after seeing the letter. His mother was buried next to his sister and turned into a small hill.
He always believed that he had killed his sister and mother, and that if he hadn't brought the paper and pen, his sister and mother would not have died. From then on, he began to cry every day, crying at his mother and sister's graves every day until his father took him away from this place.
When he grew up, he went back to look for the letter, but he couldn't find it.
Two days passed quickly. While Qi Jing was still searching for the letter, a mechanical voice rang out: "Time is up. The door will open in one minute. Please review the room carefully to see if there is anything you have missed. We will begin answering questions in one day."
"Player 0048566 is too empathetic to death
Player 0035489's past empathy death
Player 0058614 tried to stop the plot, causing the protagonist to suffer, the plot to collapse, and the world to collapse and die.
Player 0006483 was too empathetic and committed suicide."
The door opened, and as he walked out, a folded piece of paper with dark red blood stains on it fell at Qi Jing's feet. He calmly picked it up and stuffed it into his pocket. At the same time, Hu Tingfeng also came down the stairs. She waved her hand, indicating that they should follow her.
