Chapter 2 Games
"I*!"
Tang Ju easily swears, fear turned into anxiety and anger under constant urgency. Even if he wanted to calm down himself, it was easy to say and difficult to do.
And as Tang Juyi's subconscious scolding sounded, a faint sob came from outside the wall to his left.
Tang Juyi was stunned and listened carefully before he was sure that what he heard was indeed a woman's sob.
In this all-round dark environment, due to the weakening of visual perception, hearing has been enhanced accordingly, which is why Tang Juyi was able to notice the footsteps and sobs that were absolutely difficult to detect in normal times.
Perhaps because of the existence of people in the same situation, Tang Juyi's fear was weakened a lot. He tried to struggle while controlling his volume and shouted:
"Is anyone? Are you next door to me?"
Tang Juyi's voice was not loud, but it could be heard by people in another room, but it would not attract the attention of the unknown existence outside who opened the iron door one by one.
The sob gradually weakened, replaced by a faint voice with a crying voice:
"Save me...I'm tied up...Woo woo...Is it okay to save me..."
Perhaps it was because of the innate desire for protection born as a man that played a role, Tang Juyi subconsciously used a comforting tone:
"That...girl, don't panic first, please calm down a little first?"
The sobs in the next room weakened a little more, and after a pause, the previous female voice came:
"I don't know... why I'm here... I really... didn't make any mistakes..."
Tang Juyi sighed:
"Girl, I'm in the same situation as you, and somehow I was brought here... Listen to me, we may still have a chance, but first of all, you have to calm yourself down, okay?"
The female voice had a tremolo, but she still responded:
"OK......"
Then, the woman in the next room said:
"I'm so dark here... I can't see anything... my hands and feet are tied..."
Tang Juyi opened his mouth and was about to ask something, but a sudden flash of inspiration in his mind!
Very dark?
Tang Juyi, who seemed to have grasped some clues, asked quickly:
"The light bulb in your room exploded, too?"
Hearing the slight "Yeah", Tang Juyi realized that he might have grasped the key clue.
The woman in the next room was also in a state of darkness, which means she should have encountered almost the same process as Tang Juyi.
Logically speaking, judging from the obscure information revealed by the rabbit man's style of conduct and the obscure information he said and did not seem to be a person who would do something meaningless. Although he might be a lunatic, he seemed to have traces of what he said and what he did.
In this way, creating a dark environment is to limit the senses of people in the house, perhaps to increase the difficulty of escape, or perhaps to increase the degree of fear, but it also has another hidden effect.
If it is just for the darkness, why don’t you turn off the lights directly and create a situation where the light bulb explodes? Is it just to scare people and create a fear effect?
Of course not!
Tang Juyi struggled to grab his hands tied to both sides of his body and touched the glass fragments scattered by the previously exploded light bulb, and his thinking suddenly became clear.
At the same time, Tang Juyi could clearly feel the heavy steps outside the door ringing again, as if it was a wake-up call for death, which also cast a shadow in his heart again.
Before he could think too much, he grabbed a piece of glass with his hand and began to cut the hemp rope on his wrist, shouting to the next room:
"Look for the glass fragments next to you! When the light bulb in your room is broken, there must be a few pieces falling on your body! Use the fragments to cut the rope!"
Before he could say more, Tang Juyi liberated his hands first, and then began to cut the rope from his legs. At the same time, he did not forget to ask the woman next door:
"Have the fragments been found?"
The woman's answer obviously confirmed Tang Juyi's guess:
"Finished...but I can't cut it..."
At the end, her voice cried again, obviously affected by nervousness.
Tang Juyi had already cut the hemp rope that tied his feet and began to try to solve the final trouble - the rope that tied his waist.
When facing danger, the survivor who was in love with him could obviously arouse the courage and empathy of a person, so Tang Juyi also hoped that the woman next door could escape.
So, at this time, Tang Juyi did not give up encouraging her:
"Try it harder! Try it again! You can do it!"
At the same time, the last hemp rope that bound Tang Juyi was also declared broken. Although the fingers were scratched by glass fragments in order to quickly cut the hemp rope, it was no longer important.
Tang Juyi hurriedly stumbled and rushed to the wall in the dark, constantly slapped the wall, and said loudly:
"Use some force! Repeated cutting at one point will definitely cut! You must believe in yourself!"
At this time, Tang Juyi no longer cared whether his voice would attract the owner of the outside world. He now just wanted this survivor with the same fate as him to escape from danger.
Finally, the woman's voice came again, with surprise:
"I cut off... I still have the legs left..."
Tang Juyi was also excited and said happily:
"and you--"
clatter
clatter
clatter
The heavy footsteps have never been so clear, as if there is only a wall between Tang Juyi.
Of course, Tang Juyi knew very well that the owner of the footsteps was standing at the door of the room next to him.
It was precisely because of this that he felt that all the blood in his body had solidified, and an emotion called fear spread throughout his limbs and bones, and even his thinking became stiff.
The woman seemed to have realized something and shouted in a desperate voice:
"No! It's still a little bit! It's just a little bit!"
The sharp metal friction sound came, which was obviously a sign that the door was forcibly opened.
Tang Juyi moved his footsteps stiffly like a puppet, then hit the table and fell backwards to the ground.
He already knew that the woman next door...is probably unable to escape...
And the next one...is him.
Through a wall, the woman's whimpering sound was still constantly invading Tang Juyi's mind:
"Let me go...I did nothing... Please let me go..."
Tang Juyi's tense nerves were finally defeated. He rolled and crawled to the door in his memory like he was crazy, and then opened the door in an almost crazy state.
As he expected, the iron door was not locked.
The dim corridor was filled with a fishy smell that could make people sick. The mottled walls and rusty iron doors were impacting Tang Juyi's fragile nerves. What made him feel even more collapsed was the dark brown marks flowing from the doors of the open room on his left.
This is a corridor, with rooms arranged regularly on both sides of the corridor. Tang Juyi only needs to look to the left to see the doors that were opened one after another...
And... the body that is lying across it...
The initiator of this series of tragedies was standing in the room next to Tang Juyi, ready to wave the butcher knife at the woman who had not had time to escape.
The half-open door was dark, but Tang Juyi could clearly feel the horror and weirdness emitted from it.
Without hesitation, Tang Juyi chose to run to the right after almost half a second.
But just after a casual look, Tang Juyi saw clearly that there was only a room at the end of the left side of the corridor with the door open. It was not difficult to guess that the owner of the footsteps walked out of that room.
There is a corner on the corridor on the right. Although I don’t know what the specific situation is, I will always run to the left, which is obviously looking for death.
As for trying to help the woman next door, Tang Juyi didn't even think about it.
Humans are such strange creatures. When facing the approaching danger, they try their best to help those in the same situation as their own. However, when terror and crisis stand in front of them at a distance of within reach, they will completely give up everything that can be used for sacrifice.
Not to mention that Tang Juyi felt that he had no way to rescue that woman, even if he had, he would not want to try it.
Although he was a little compassionate, it did not mean that he was so noble that he could give up his chance to escape for others.
Under the influence of fear, Tang Juyi's running posture seemed quite funny. He seemed to have something hanging on his legs. He started to run and trembled one step at a time, and almost fell to the ground.
"It's okay...it's okay..."
Tang Juyi kept talking to himself, trying to calm himself back so that he would not panic because of fear.
"He would stay in that woman's room for at least ten seconds... enough for me to run to the corner... It's OK... It's OK..."
It is obvious that at this time, Tang Juyi had already used the woman he had tried to help as a tool to delay time. Although it was not intentional, the change in this was really sad.
It seemed that only Tang Juyi's breathing sound and his messy escape were left in the quiet corridor.
Because I don't know when the "thing" in that room will come out, and how fast will it chase after I find myself running, Tang Juyi can be said to be running desperately.
Finally, the corner at the end of the corridor appeared in front of Tang Juyi, and his eyes also showed ecstasy glory.
However, what Tang Juyi did not expect was that at the moment he turned the corner, what he came to was not the escape gate or the road to continue running, but a deep pit that was caught off guard.
The sudden sense of falling made Tang Juyi scream, but the following fall directly blocked his words in his chest.
The heavy impact made Tang Juyi's head dizzy, and even his breathing became a little difficult.
Unlike the dim corridor, the environment Tang Juyi was in was so bright that it was a bit dazzling. Even if he was lying on the ground, he could feel the light that obviously made the visually uncomfortable.
And a familiar hoarse voice also sounded at this time:
Chapter completed!
