A group of unusual people walked in an unusual passage. After another three minutes of walking, Xiao Ming's royal thugs had changed from one to two.
When there are more people, there is competition, so Chen Yeye, the No. 2 thug, volunteered to be the No. 1 player.
No. 55 asked him: "What should I do if it's a foul if I hit the president?"
Chen Yeye waved his hand grandly, "Why don't you just deduct 5 points? I just need to be ranked 30th and enter the third round of interviews."
So where did you get the confidence to be promoted and still pass the interview smoothly?
The group made jokes and soon reached the end of the passage.
A door blocked their way, with a piece of white paper stuck in the crack of the door. Ying Jie, who was walking at the front, exchanged glances with Zhang Jiaoyue, then stepped forward, took off the piece of paper, unfolded it, and saw a line of words written on it——
[It will be a foul if you enter the door, the reason is unknown, please be careful]
There is no signature, but everyone agrees that it is the handwriting of the candidates, because they have the paper and pen issued by the Bureau of Gas Physics in their backpacks.
The paper was stuffed into the crack of the door. It seems that this person broke a rule after entering, so he left a message and pushed the paper out of the door to alert future generations.
No. 17 touched his chin and said, "It seems that someone has passed through this passage a long time ago."
Without further ado, Ying Jie and Chen Yeye worked together to open the heavy iron door. The sound of "crunch-" came, and the moment the door opened, there was nothing strange, only the smell of rust mixed with the familiar smell of decay, rushing towards the face.
A section of spider web hangs above the door, and in front of the door is a section of stairs leading upward. The steps were dusty and there were footprints walking up. There are two types of footprints, the middle one is the shallowest and belongs to only one person. The shoe size is around 37 or 38, which is not much different from Zhang Jiaoyue's.
She thought for a moment, then looked back at her uncle, "Did the person who was imprisoned next door to you escape here?"
Uncle: "I don't know."
He was like an automatic answering machine, asking questions without knowing anything.
At this time, No. 55 said: "This should be a woman, right? She is very rich."
No. 17 was confused: "Where did you know he was rich?"
No. 55: "The pattern on the soles of these shoes is from a big brand. A pair of shoes costs tens of thousands, so you may not be able to buy them."
No. 83: “What if it’s a high imitation?”
No. 55 choked, because this was really possible. The only thing that can be determined is that the shallower footprints should be left by innocent people, while the deeper footprints on both sides belong to the candidates.
Only the candidates will be careful not to destroy the clues, deliberately walking on both sides and avoiding the middle.
But where is the foul point?
With paper reminders, no one dares to act rashly. Everyone squeezed in at the door next to me and I looked in. Yan Yueming even took out a telescope, but still found nothing.
He looked back at the uncle again. The uncle was really not a good actor. He simply turned his head away and didn't even bother to act.
Ten minutes passed, and they still had no clue, but the radio rang.
"Dear candidates, please pay attention."
"The second innocent person has been found."
"Escorting it to the rooftop aerodrome will be considered a successful rescue."
The sound suddenly sounded
The broadcast gave everyone a sense of urgency, especially since the interval between these broadcasts was less than half a minute, and another candidate was eliminated. The number of candidates remaining at this time: 89.
"Unexplained foul...unexplained foul..."
Yan Yueming began to think casually. He remembered that after entering the examination room, he experienced a total of two fouls or eliminations that he found very strange.
One time, less than half an hour after the exam started, candidate No. 89 was eliminated for unknown reasons. The second time was Thinker No. 66, who suddenly committed a foul in the corridor between the 5th and 6th floors.
Why?
The more Yan Yueming thought about it, the more confused she became, and her eyes couldn't help but search inside the door again. Gritting his teeth, he regained his courage and stuck his head in - a little bit.
Xiao Ming is still a cautious Xiao Ming. His main purpose is to look at the ceiling.
What's on the ceiling?
There seemed to be nothing but cobwebs and dust.
Wait, nothing?
"I see!"
Yan Yueming suddenly realized, "Monitor!"
Zhang Jiaoyue was slightly startled, then looked at the ceiling inside the door, and his mind instantly responded, "You mean... you can't appear outside the surveillance? Because the company wants to keep track of every employee's movements, and is afraid that they will be lazy?"
Yan Yueming took his head back, his brain was spinning rapidly, and he quickly added: "The only exception is the toilet. The toilet can be without surveillance. I was thinking before about why there were fouls on the 5th and 6th floors because the surveillance there was broken. !”
Chen Yeye blinked, "Then what should we do now? We know the rules and there's nothing we can do about it."
Yes, even if you know what the rules are, but there is no surveillance here and you have to break the rules anyway, what should you do?
Just when everyone was at a loss again, Zhang Jiaoyue suddenly said: "Mirror."
Yan Yueming understood instantly, "Mirror refraction? Let the mirror appear in the surveillance screen. We just need to make sure that we are reflected in the mirror?"
"It's available on the first floor, I'll get it." Ying Jie acted immediately.
"I'm going too!" Chen Yeye followed.
Both of them are masters of martial arts. They are agile and have plenty of physical strength. They can move back and forth very quickly. Within ten minutes, the two came back with a mirror. Yan Yueming originally thought they would bring a small mirror, but who knew——
"Did you take down the mirror in the toilet?" No. 55's words were full of disbelief.
"It's safe. How about it? Is it big enough?" Chen Yeye was pleased with himself and actively took over the task of placing the mirror. Under Zhang Jiaoyue's command, he placed the mirror in the door and adjusted the angle.
Without waiting for others to discuss, Ying Jie took the lead and walked into the door first and appeared in the mirror.
"How is it?" Yan Yueming asked quickly.
Ying Jie answered him with action. He walked to the front steps in a few steps. After about five steps, he stopped again and said: "Adjust the angle of the mirror again and monitor the corner of the wall in front of me on the left. "
After adjusting the mirror, Ying Jie walked forward. When he reached the end of the steps and his figure almost disappeared from everyone's sight, he raised his voice and said, "That's it."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurried up.
Yan Yueming was not in a hurry to take action. He picked up the paper beside him, thought for a while, took out his pen from his bag to complete the rules, and then put the paper back at the door. Because he wants to appear in the surveillance, he can't turn it off now
After opening the door, he found a place where there was no water, carefully placed it, and pressed it down with pebbles. r />
"Okay." He whispered, clapped his hands with satisfaction, and then turned to follow.
At the end of the steps is the lobby on the first floor.
At this moment, Yan Yueming was able to determine what this gray building was used for. It was an abandoned employee dormitory. Dust and cobwebs were everywhere, damaged tables, chairs and sundries soaked in water were randomly discarded in every corner. There was an old-fashioned electric fan on the ceiling of the hall, which was dark green and the paint on it was mottled.
The dormitory rules and regulations are hung on the wall on the left side of the hall. The door is broken and unlocked. The green plants at the door have long since died, and there are obvious fresh footprints on the ground, more than one.
"It seems that more than one wave of candidates entered here." Zhang Jiaoyue said.
There were at least two groups of people coming in from the underground passage and from the main door.
Yan Yueming carefully observed the footprints and found that they were all over the hall, and he also walked past the wall with rules and regulations. The first few rules and regulations are very common. They are nothing more than turning off the lights at what time, opening and closing the door at what time, remembering to do good personal hygiene, throwing garbage in designated places, etc.
The last few lines are a bit confusing.
7: Don’t go to the toilet between 1:00 and 3:00 in the morning.
8: After turning off the lights, if you find your roommate facing you with his eyes open, cover him with a quilt.
9: Count the number of people in the dormitory every night. If there is an extra person in your dormitory, put him in the toilet.
10: Any sound you hear at night is wind, don’t make a fuss.
11: There is no toilet at the end of the corridor on the 4th floor.
12: Don’t drop by.
13: Don’t knock.
14: Don’t ask for trouble.
Yan Yueming saw the familiar sentence "Don't ask for trouble", and suddenly thought of the employee handbook that Ma Renai got, which also had this friendly reminder.
But what does "don't look for trouble" mean? Literal meaning, or does it have a deeper meaning?
The key is--
Yan Yueming asked: "The gap has changed a lot. This rule and regulation must have been before the dormitory building was abandoned. So is it still effective now?"
Chen Yeye scratched his head, he didn't know. At this time, Ying Jie walked to the halo of sunlight cast through the broken glass of the door and noticed something strange about it.
The cracks in the glass are irregularly jagged, and the light and shadow cast are also jagged, but the jagged teeth are not aligned with each other, and the shadows of the jagged teeth are moving, like the teeth of a monster.
No. 55 was startled and stopped quickly, not daring to go any further. He was once again glad that he followed these great masters. Otherwise, if he had come alone, he would have lost so many points and committed so many violations.
Thinking of this, he took out his telescope and looked at the Troublesome Unlimited Company opposite. He noticed the clue at this glance, "There is no one in the lobby on the first floor opposite."
Looking at the windows upstairs, there were none.
Ying Jie quickly made a judgment, "There is something wrong with Guang."
No. 55 was also surprised to find that the roof of the building opposite was pointed and could not park a plane at all. "We are right! The airstrip is on our side!"
On the 17th, another bucket of cold water was poured on my head, "But if there is a problem with the sunshine now, I will
How are we going to get to the airport? The top floor is completely sunny. "
"That's right." No. 83 touched his chin.
"The situation now is just like when we were facing each other,
There is no door on the opposite side, so we can't get out of the corridor; now there is a problem with the light. If we can't walk into the light, then we will have to deduct points when we get on the airport. The additional points are only 10 points. If you deduct 5 points, it is not cost-effective. "
"But it was clear that there was no such situation yesterday. Whether it was the door or the light, what exactly was the problem?" Monk No. 55 Zhang Er was confused.
Just at this moment, "Bang!" A muffled sound came from outside.
Everyone suddenly turned to look outside the door, and saw a strange thick smoke suddenly filling the window on the 11th floor of Troublesome Unlimited Company opposite. I can't tell what color the smoke is. It's a little gray and a little purple. In short, it's not good.
"exploded?"
"How did it explode?"
"The 11th floor...which room is that?"
Yan Yueming listened to the exclamations of his companions, mobilized the map in his mind, and quickly locked on the target, "It's the toilet on the 11th floor!"
Chen Yeye's eyes widened, "What? Someone blew up the toilet?!"
At the same time, there was an explosion that shocked everyone in the company.
The person most affected by the explosion was the conjurer who had tried his best to crawl into the ventilation duct, and then climbed from the ventilation duct to the vent above the president's office.
The sudden explosion shook the entire ventilation duct. The leader, No. 42, had already opened the grille of the vent and was trying to figure out a way to jump down. He accidentally fell down.
"Ouch!" No. 42 fell flat on his face, his face almost flattened. When he raised his head, he happened to face the president who was hiding under the desk.
Eyes facing each other.
No. 42 smiled awkwardly, "Hi?"
The president blew the whistle on the spot and crawled away immediately.
No. 42 committed a foul on the spot and subconsciously reached out to grab him, but only caught one of his shoes. The CEO was taken off his shoes and became even more crazy. He shouted like a mantra, "Humans are terrible, humans are terrible" and ran away crazily.
No. 42, and the other shocked conjurers who poked their heads out of the vents, only then discovered that the pink suit on the CEO was in pieces.
Who is so perverted as to tear the CEO's clothes like this?
Immediately afterwards, an even more magical scene happened.
As the president crawled in darkness and fled frantically, the office door appeared again. The CEO rushed out the door like a nimble gecko and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In less than ten seconds, there were angry curses from other candidates outside.
"Damn, why did I commit a foul again!"
"What is this?!"
"Damn it, don't come over here!"
No. 42's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition came over him. He quickly got up from the ground and looked up at his teammates, "Quick, pull me up! Quick!"
No. 38: "Why are you in such a hurry? The president has already left."
No. 42: "But he was hiding well. It seems he went out because of us! If other candidates find out, we will be finished!"
No. 38 felt that what he said was very reasonable. He nodded seriously and said, "Then you can take the elevator. It's too far to pull up. Let's go first. See you later!"
No. 42: "..."
Oh shit. !
