Chapter 017 Biological Laboratory (V)
On the way, Bai Tao saw that the bench press rack had eaten the body, leaving only blood at the scene.
The one who died was Su Hua.
The bench press is a weightlifting training equipment consisting of two parts: a bracket for placing the barbell and a bench for people to lie on their backs.
The exercise method is for the person to lie flat or sit on a bench, remove the barbell from the stand and perform push-up exercises.
Meng Huo told the two of them the process of Su Hua's death.
He and Su Hua came to the bench press room together, and they agreed that Su Hua would exercise first.
They experimented with the way of lifting the barbell many times and found that the timer on the bench press rack would only start counting when they were doing the bench press.
After testing the correct exercise method, Su Hua lay on the bench press and began formal exercise.
Ten minutes into the first exercise, Su Hua's arm cramped. Meng Huo thought something was wrong and pulled Su Hua off the bench press.
But Su Hua said that he was fine and it was Meng Huo who was looking for trouble.
He unilaterally ordered Meng Huo to stay away from the bench press rack and prohibited anyone from touching him, otherwise he would attack Meng Huo.
Baitao: "?"
Is Su Hua so irritable? It was not apparent during the communication.
Eleven frowned: "And then?"
The bench press rack currently has the fewest users, and Su Hua’s cause of death is crucial.
"Su Hua refused my help to hold the bench press rack. Then, as you can see, he suddenly lost strength and the barbell fell out of his hands. His neck was broken by the barbell. Then, you can see the bench press rack devouring his body."
"This... Did Qing and Xiao Zhou get swallowed by the bench press like Su Hua? But no one witnessed it, so they were mistakenly thought to be missing."
Without Bai Tao's intervention, Meng Huo refuted this speculation.
"It's unlikely that Calabash Brothers will save Grandpa, unless Qing and Xiao Zhou use two bench presses at the same time."
One person got into an accident right in front of his eyes, but the other ignored the body being devoured and continued to use the bench press. How heartless was that?
Meng Huo speculated the cause of Su Hua's death based on the information brought by Bai Tao.
The treadmill has a death wire, the sit-up bench cuts people in half, and the bench press rack breaks their necks.
Meng Huo: "I guess the cause of death is the same as Fu Nan's. He was careless during exercise and caused his own death."
This doesn't make Eleven feel at ease.
Three players successively encountered problems with the bench press, which made him back out.
He would rather go to a space walker where the rules of death are unknown.
He said, "I'm going to go check out the space walker first. Bai Tao, you can accompany Meng Huo to study the bench press rack."
Bai Tao raised an eyebrow: "Are you going alone?"
Eleven touched his nose guiltily: "Let's go and take a look. There are seven players left, so someone is bound to be left alone. It's not good to leave a girl like you alone."
Since the legs were on her body, Bai Tao had no way to stop him, nor did she want to stop him, so she let Shiyi leave.
Bai Tao looked up and down at the bench press rack. The huge mouth that had swallowed the corpse had closed, and there was no sign that it had once swallowed the corpse of an adult male.
There was still an hour and a half before the fitness plaza closed, and Bai Tao decided to try the bench press.
"Why not try it on mice first?" Meng Huo suggested.
Bai Tao shook her head and refused. It was not because she couldn't bear it. Without knowing whether it was against the rules, Bai Tao refused to attack the little white mouse.
She always remembered the despair before Mary's death.
Violating the core rules does not necessarily mean immediate death. The dungeon prefers to give players despair when their hope is greatest.
Of course, before going on the bench press, Bai Tao and Meng Huo agreed that if they noticed something was wrong, they would push Bai Tao off the bench.
Even if she objects, you must enforce it forcefully, and remember to help her share the weight of the barbell.
Meng Huo stroked his chin and said, "If you refuse me to help you share the weight of the barbell, can I apply for armed suppression?"
“Like having you lie on a bench until you’ve finished your workout,” he said.
Baitao: "..."
"It's better not to. You might get hurt."
God knows whether players need to abide by the law to protect minors.
And if you make her angry, then a harmless reasoning can become a lethal one.
For example, getting players to break the rules by reasoning with them.
"Ok, let's get started."
Before lying on the bench, Bai Tao deliberately asked casually: "By the way, do you remember the rope outside the treadmill room?"
Meng Huo suddenly realized and answered confidently: "You are thoughtful. There are not enough people using the bench press, so we can just use ropes to tie people to the bench."
Young man, your idea is a bit dangerous, and she doesn't have that idea!
Bai Tao brought the topic back: "That's not what I meant. I meant do you remember when the rope appeared?"
"It's been there all the time, what happened?" Meng Huo was a little confused.
Bai Tao's answer was perfect: "Let me remind you, maybe that rope is also a fitness equipment."
"I see." His tone was somewhat disappointed.
Meng Huo also didn't remember Zhao Xiaodong.
The rope was taken out by the young man, and he and Xiao Zhou tied up Zhao Xiaodong with the rope.
All three are currently missing.
What do they have in common?
Keeping this question in mind, Bai Tao lay on the flat bench and started using the bench press.
With Meng Huo's help, Bai Tao was able to perform repetitive pushing and pulling movements with her arms very easily. The only discomfort was that the bench was a bit hard.
In this situation, Bai Tao's already active mind became even more active.
She thought of Zhao Xiaodong again. No one remembered him, only Bai Tao remembered him.
"Hey girl, are you being lazy? Use the bench press and concentrate so nothing goes wrong."
The voice rang in Bai Tao's ears.
Who is speaking?
As if knowing what Bai Tao was thinking, the voice spoke again.
"I'm a staff member of the Little White Mouse Fitness Plaza. Let me teach you how to use the bench press correctly."
But besides Bai Tao, there was only Meng Huo in the glass room where the bench press rack was placed.
Where is the staff? Oh, the staff is the bench press itself.
Should the bench press rack talk? Yes, because it's a human being.
That's what Bai Tao's brain told her.
The brain is right, she is never wrong.
But Bai Tao had a new problem.
Are the staff trustworthy?
The Fitness Plaza User Guide says…
My thoughts were interrupted by my brain, which said that it was normal for there to be staff in the gym, and that I had never used a bench press before, so I needed help from the staff.
The staff patiently encouraged: "First, use your greatest strength to lift the barbell high. That's right, you are awesome, kid. Then, release your hands and let the barbell fall freely. That's right..."
You see she is teaching you how to use the bench press, and your brain says, just follow her.
Bai Tao's eyes were confused. She seemed to be convinced. She listened to the staff and lifted the barbell high with all her strength.
"Yes, that's it, it's time to let go." The staff member raised his voice, looking forward to Bai Tao's head falling to the ground.
A confused look in the eyes doesn't mean that Bai Tao's heart is blinded.
She placed the barbell on the stand, released her hands, and stepped away from the bench press rack where she was speaking.
Meng Huo almost thought that Bai Tao was also controlled. She hurriedly explained Rule Five and was able to successfully move her position.
Bai Tao moved to the bench press stand where Su Hua died and continued to exercise.
Rule 2 [If someone claims to be a staff member appears, just ignore him. ]
Rule 5 [The fitness equipment in this fitness plaza cannot talk. If you hear the fitness equipment talking, please stop exercising immediately and change to the same equipment. ]
Gym equipment = staff, that makes sense.
Who would have thought that two rules refer to one object.
If you ignore the staff, you are violating rule five, and if you leave the bench press rack, it means you have met the staff.
Whenever we meet, we must break a rule.
The pollution began from this moment, so Bai Tao heard the voice of her own "brain".
She was indeed confused for a moment, but Hakumo was sure that she did not have schizophrenia.
Even if Bai Tao is really schizophrenic, these cheap tricks can't fool her.
On the new bench press rack, the timer continued timing from the previous bench press rack, saving Bai Tao a lot of time.
Bai Tao focused her thoughts and kept her mind focused.
I made it to the end of the fitness session without any incident.
Meng Huo had long wanted to know what had happened, but Bai Tao's expression, which said "keep away from strangers", made him endure it.
After finishing the workout, the first thing he asked was, “Did you hear the bench press talking?”
Bai Tao told what happened to her.
Meng Huo stroked his chin and thought for a long time, then opened his mouth. Bai Tao thought he had a new idea.
In the end, he said: "Su Huat's death was not unjust!"
Baitao: "..."
"There's still over an hour left in the gym. Do you want to try the bench press first, or try some other equipment?"
Meng Huo glanced at the bench press rack and decided, "Let's go find other people first."
"The treadmill room is used by four people, and there are only two people on the bench press including me, so I have to bring one person back."
His clenched fists made a creaking sound, and he looked ready to use force.
This time the players' thoughts were in sync, and just as they walked a short distance, they saw Er Luo walking towards the bench press room.
"What a coincidence, I was just about to look for you guys." Meng Huo greeted Luo Jiang and Luo Hong.
"It seems we are thinking alike."
The four of them gathered and walked towards the treadmill room.
Meng Huo was still thinking about tying someone to the bench press to exercise.
"Which of you hasn't finished your workout yet?"
Luo Jiang raised his hand, but said he would look at the other three rooms before making a decision.
In the treadmill room, the counting board on the wall showed 3, which was the same as the number on the sit-up bench.
Players who are using the treadmill are not within the counter range.
Qianqian was exercising, and Zhuangxi was helping to control the speed of the treadmill.
Luo Hong stepped forward and replaced Zhuang Xi.
Players who have not completed the fitness task are Zhuang Xi, Meng Huo and Luo Jiang.
After discussion, the players unanimously decided to go to the space walker first, and then distribute the fitness equipment after determining the number of people using the four types of fitness equipment.
Luo Hong stayed to help Qianqian.
Bai Tao and three players who did not complete the fitness task went to find Eleven.
Through the transparent glass, Bai Tao saw Eleven sitting on the space walker, hunched over, as if he was being lazy.
Get closer and you'll notice something's wrong. No matter how lazy you try, you can't just stay still.
Bai Tao had a bad feeling.
I quickened my pace and rushed into the space walk room, and found that Eleven's eyes were closed, his expression was peaceful, and his body was not moving at all.
Meng Huo was the fastest, with his fingers on the side of Eleven's neck.
"The person is not dead, he is still alive."
The players breathed a sigh of relief, then realized it was too early.
