June 8, 23:40.
Outside the gate of Lianhua University.
Thick night shrouded the city, and the school where the event was taking place was the densest point in the night. Looking in through the school gate, you could only see the collapsed trophy statue that symbolized victory, and the already The broken base of the statue.
Looking inside again, all you can see is a cloud of dust.
There were still twenty minutes before the end of the exam, and the players outside the school looked at the school and held their breath.
Players who were waiting for their teammates watched helplessly as the ground inside the school collapsed. The flying dust and thick night blocked their sight, making it impossible to see clearly what was happening in the school.
The three-meter-high automatic door blocked their steps. The gate of Lianhua University had been modified by activities. Only players who handed in their papers could come out.
After the exam begins, latecomers will not be able to enter.
"What's going on inside...there's no movement from anyone else..." Someone looked at the school and gasped.
At this moment, they suddenly saw two bright lights bursting out of the darkness, followed by the roar of a car.
Immediately they saw a shabby car driving out of the darkness and rushing towards the school gate!
Players with sharp eyes and quick hands grabbed the person next to them and hid aside: "Get out of the way!"
The frightened players quickly moved to both sides like a tide.
But within two seconds, the car that emerged from the darkness slammed into the automatic door.
The collision did not knock it open, but they heard a nervous voice coming from the car: "The doctor can't do it! I guess it's because we didn't hand in the papers, so it didn't open the door for us!"
Didn't hand in the paper?
Wouldn't it be a violation to come out without handing in the papers? Will the invigilator let them come out?
Before they could react, another person's voice reached their ears: "Stop beeping and sit still."
People were stunned when they saw the car move backwards slightly and then hit it violently, which meant, "I don't want to hand in the paper but you have to open the door for me."
The players hiding aside looked at the car that hit the school gate crazily and swallowed their saliva.
"Are you crazy? There is a ghost in here. What if he breaks the door and releases the ghost?"
"I guess it's because there was an accident inside. You see the ground of the school has collapsed. I'm afraid they will be doomed if they stay in there any longer."
While the players outside were talking, Gu Mian drove the hearse and rammed it several times, and the automatic door in front was finally broken into two.
He stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the school with a fat man who was about to vomit, a boy with broken glasses, and a landlord who liked to twist gas tanks.
The hearse rushed straight out of the school gate for a long distance, and finally turned around and came to a halt.
As soon as the car stopped, the fat man in the back seat immediately opened the seat belt and rushed out of the car. He squatted in the corner and retched. Gu Mian thought that he would have to take the fat man to drift a few times in the future to let him get used to it.
Chu Changge pushed up his glasses out of habit, and the broken lenses scratched his hands.
"One, two, three, four...four..." Gu Mian also got out of the car. At this time, he was leaning on the car door and counting the number of people with a finger. "I seem to be missing one..."
Xiao Qiao is gone.
Liu Ruyan looked at the school gate through the open car door: "She said she had something to do, so she left first and told us not to worry about her."
Oh, is it so.
Although Gu Mian felt that this unemployed female star had nothing serious to do, he did not ask more questions, what if she went to find her mother like 007... No, Xiao Qiao was an orphan.
By the way, when talking about 007, Gu Mian suddenly remembered the agreement he made with her not long ago.
When he wanted to lend her the [mobile phone that broke through the dimensional wall] to make a call, he remembered that he asked 007 to wait at the school gate.
Where is she?
Gu Mian thought as he turned around and looked around. The first thing he saw was the group of players in the direction of the school gate who were watching silently.
Even though it was a dark night, Gu Mian could still see the strange and frightened expressions on their faces, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Presumably the collision of the hearse just now had a big psychological impact on them.
007 was trotting over from that direction and ran up to Gu Mian in one breath: "Those at the school gate are all players waiting for their teammates... Can I ask, do you think they can still wait for someone..."
This is a case of death in a tactful inquiry campaign.
Gu Mian looked at the school gate and saw the people outside the door glanced at her a few times and then looked eagerly into the school, as if expecting someone to come out.
But after a while, only a few people rushed out. Those few people immediately collapsed to the ground after rushing out, and one even cried loudly.
At this time, the fat man who was retching in the corner suddenly straightened up and turned around: "That's enough!"
"Don't worry," Gu Mian quickly walked over and patted his shoulder, "Give me the phone."
But 007 never got through to his parents in the end.
When the mobile phone that breaks through the dimensional wall is used outside the dungeon, it will call the person the user is most compatible with, but the person who answers her call is a strange player, not her parents.
Although it is a pity, there is nothing we can do about it.
007 returned the phone to Gu Mian, thanked him and left, embarking on his journey to find his parents again.
Gu Mian plans to live in Lianhua City. At this stage, without any goals, it will be the same no matter where he lives. Since he originally lived in this city, it is more convenient to live here.
At this time, Gu Mian and the others were already on their way home.
Before leaving, he looked back at the school gate. The players there were still staring at the door, but no one came out anymore.
Ninety percent of the players died in this event, and some of the remaining 10% ran away without handing in the papers. Theoretically, they cannot leave the school without handing in the papers, but this is not a big problem, because Gu When Mian came out, he broke the door.
The hearse was driving on a road without street lights.
Gu Mian does not have a house, and the landlord of the Death Inn where he lives is Liu Ruyan.
Liu Ruyan is also a strange flower. Giving the hotel such a name scares no one to dare to live in it, for fear that he will "pass away" as soon as he moves in.
It turns out that living in the Inn of the Past is not very peaceful. A few brave people stayed there for a while, but they were all frightened by the weird things.
Sometimes there was a sudden power outage while taking a shower at night, and sometimes the water pipes burst for no apparent reason and flooded the house. The tenants were so frightened that they returned their money and left.
But they didn't know that this was all because of Gu Mian's bad luck, and the surrounding tenants were also unlucky.
In short, as long as you live with Gu Mian, don't expect to be safe.
Chu Changge, who had known Gu Mian in the orphanage, had suffered even more. Fortunately, he was not impatient and didn't care much about the hardships.
At midnight, Gu Mian's tattered hearse was already parked at the stairs of the Death Inn.
He opened the door and got out of the car, staring at his tattered hearse in the darkness.
"Should we consider changing a car?" He looked at the broken windshield and said to himself.
At this time, the diligent and thrifty fat man also jumped out of the car: "No, doctor, the 998 car is not cheap. We can discuss with the manufacturer and let them repair it for us."
Gu Mian touched her chin: "I remember I didn't mention the warranty when I bought the car..."
"But it didn't say there would be no warranty."
It's really reasonable and convincing.
At this moment, Fatty discovered that an announcement had been updated on the game panel. It was updated at 23:50 yesterday, and he saw it only then.
At this time, Gu Mian had already stepped into the "Palace Inn" in front of her.
He had to go and see how his house was ruined by his brother and Xiaohong. Chu Changge also walked in.
The fat man was standing in front of the hearse checking the announcement.
[Announcement (June 8, 23:50)]
[According to the official detection of the game, there was a strong vibration at the venue where the 'College Entrance Examination' event was held. This event has been closed in advance. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to all players]
[This time all players who survived the event will be compensated, please pay attention to your email]
"All surviving players..." Fatty muttered these words, "I'm afraid there are only a hundred."
The apartment has seven floors, and Gu Mian lives on the sixth floor, with two bedrooms and one living room. Someone previously shared the apartment with him but was scared away. Gu Mian was too lazy to move and moved in by himself.
At this time, he was already standing in front of the security door of his house. He had replaced the door himself and had a spare key.
He reached into his pocket, took out the spare key, inserted it into the lock, and turned it.
"Click" the door was opened.
The room was dark and I couldn't see what was inside. There was no power card plugged in, so there was no power.
And the electric card is now on the fat man.
Gu Mian opened the door and walked a few steps inside. The room was quiet, as if no one was there. He looked around in the darkness with some confusion: "Where are those two ghosts?"
Why is there no movement at all? Could it be that I took the wrong way to someone's house?
"Xiaohong?" Gu Mian called again, but there was no answer.
"Coming, coming!" Just when Gu Mian was wondering, Fatty's voice came from the corridor. He had lived here for a while, so he knew where Gu Mian lived.
I saw the fat man running up from the stairs. He trotted to the door with the electric card, reached out and inserted the card into the card slot, and then turned on the light switch.
The electric light above his head suddenly turned on.
Gu Mian blinked a few times before adapting to the sudden light.
He blinked a few times and then looked up into the house.
Both ghosts are there.
but……
I saw Xiaohong standing furtively on the sofa, trying not to make any noise to tear off the photo stuck on the wall.
It was a photo of Gu Mian crying when she was a child and was hit on the head by a basketball that suddenly flew from the sky.
He silently followed Xiaohong's hand and looked around. He saw that the walls were covered with photos of his childhood. Some were in tears, some were extremely happy and sad, and the most common ones were the moments when accidents happened. At that time, they were in their orphanage. The dean likes to take pictures blindly with his camera.
There were many photos scattered on the ground, and the empty photo album was thrown aside casually. This was obviously their masterpiece.
Xiaohong was obviously afraid that the incident would happen, so she didn't dare to say anything. She just wanted to take the opportunity to tear off a few more pictures.
It's a pity that the incident came to light.
After Gu Mian silently looked at the photos all over the room for a few times, she finally twitched her eyebrows and said, "Tear them all off for me!"
It was already past one o'clock after cleaning up the photos all over the house. These photos were all sorted and inserted back into the album by Fatty. The photos taken at the same time were connected together, which could almost restore the original story. At this time, he used a loving He looked at the thick photo album in his hand.
The fat man was looking at a photo of Gu Mian having lunch at a certain time.
In the first picture, Gu Mian is sitting silently at the table eating rice from a bowl. Today's dish is seaweed and egg drop soup. At this time, everything is peaceful and the years are peaceful.
In the second, a woman in a skirt appears within the frame of the photo, holding a bowl of soup.
Seeing that the fat man had already guessed what was going to happen next.
Looking down again, it was indeed like this.
In the third picture, the owner of the skirt accidentally fell to the ground, and the soup in her hand spilled over Gu Mian's head. Gu Mian still ate quietly, as if she had become accustomed to it.
Looking further down is another series.
The fat man looked at the photo in his hand, his face turned red as he suppressed laughter: "Doctor, who poured soup on your face? It's so immoral!"
At this time, Chu Changge's faint voice came from his ears: "It's me."
