Under the gap in the broken stairs, the ground could no longer be seen. Darkness enveloped the area, making people feel panicked and dizzy just looking at it.
Huan Xiao sat on the steps opposite and saw the girl in school uniform still struggling, so she said:
"How about I go up first and you think about it before leaving?"
"No, wait for me, give me ten more minutes... no, three minutes, give me three more minutes, I will make up my mind soon!"
Looking at the endless darkness around her, the girl in school uniform felt extremely scared.
Although she has experienced the reincarnation of this game many times, this is her first time here. She knows nothing about it and dare not act alone.
Humans are social animals. When they leave the group, they will feel a huge sense of loneliness and loneliness that will swallow up their sanity.
The same goes for the girl in school uniform. She doesn't dare to walk alone on this road full of unknown dangers. Huan Xiao is not just a temporary companion with her, but also her courage!
Worried that Huan Xiao would leave her behind, the girl in school uniform immediately chatted with Huan Xiao after saying her words to persuade her to stay, hoping that Huan Xiao would put the thought of leaving behind.
"Xiao Huan, why don't you take a few steps back to prevent me from bumping into you when I jump over... You sit there and it's not convenient for me to take off."
In fact, the position where Huanxiao was sitting was five meters away from the disconnected position, so under normal circumstances it would not interfere with the other party.
But after listening to the girl in school uniform, Huan Xiao still got up and walked further.
"Okay, can I back up here? If I go any further, the phone will come back."
After the task phone leaves the player for a certain distance, it will return to the player.
Although the distance for recycling a mobile phone is not fixed, Huanxiao can sense it in advance through ghost energy.
When her ghostly aura is about to start, if you stay further away, there is a high chance that her phone will come back to her.
Girls in school uniform also know that the phone will return to its owner at any time.
She originally wanted to take off Huan Xiao's cell phone and replace it with her own, but the angle at which Huan Xiao placed the cell phone was very tricky and the position was too low. If she wasn't careful, she might lose weight and fall down the stairs.
In order to avoid unnecessary danger, the girl in school uniform had no choice but to continue to let Huanxiao's mobile phone be placed at the break of the stairs.
She shouted back to Huan Xiao: "Okay, just stay where you are and don't move. I...I'll jump over right away. You mustn't move!"
After shouting, she stared at the darkness below, her legs trembling and feeling weak.
It's too high. It's too high here. Can she really jump over it?
Will it fail? She only has one chance! If you fail, you will really die, absolutely die!
Otherwise... let her go downstairs and forget it. When the day is over, she can return to the door of the manor and start the next round of the game. At least it will be better than falling to death...
But soon, the girl in school uniform put this thought out of her mind.
Can't!
It took a lot of effort for her to get here, and she must persevere.
After the next game starts, she may no longer be able to maintain clear memory and consciousness. She only has this chance.
After thinking about it, the girl in school uniform stood at the position where Huan Xiao started just now, planning to rush over in one go.
Before running away, she warned Huan Xiao again: "You must not move around, understand?"
"knew--"
Hearing Huanxiao's elongated and amplified voice, the girl in school uniform felt a little more at ease.
At least there was someone waiting for her in front, and that was enough. Even if she just wanted to see clearly what special thing was on the stairs, she still had to insist on walking to the top of the stairs!
When the confidence in her heart reached its highest point, the girl in school uniform ran forward——
However, when she was about to take off, she found that she was still some distance away from the fracture.
It was really difficult to control the size of the steps when running on the steps. She had just seen Xiaohuan running so easily and thought she could do it too. But she didn't expect that this contempt would cost her dearly.
Flustered, the girl in school uniform lost her balance.
Just as she was about to jump onto the stairs opposite, she watched helplessly as her foothold fell to the air in front of the section...
"ah--!!"
Panic screams rang out in the darkness.
Huan Xiao watched the girl in school uniform fall downwards in front of her eyes. Such a big person was gone in an instant.
"Snapped!"
Just when Huan Xiao thought that the girl in school uniform was dead, a hand grabbed the break of the stairs.
The voice of a girl in school uniform came from the bottom of the stairs.
"Help... Xiaohuan! Please give me a hand..."
Huanxiao was speechless, stood up and walked over, "I just reminded you to pay attention to the starting point."
In the end, he made the mistake where she reminded him. Thanks to this person's mental preparation, it was all in vain.
"I, I was so nervous, I forgot... Come and help me get up, it's so high here, I'm so scared!"
The girl in school uniform swayed in the darkness like a willow branch in the wind, and it was thrilling just to look at it.
Huan Xiao squatted down and said distressedly: "How can I pull you up? There are no guardrails on the stairs. Maybe we will fall down together later."
The girl in school uniform raised her head, tears flowed from her eyes, and cried pitifully, "What should I do? I don't want to die, I still want to go home! Wow, oh, oh, I almost jumped up the stairs just now, why is this..."
"Don't cry yet, save some energy."
"No...I'm going to run out of energy..."
Veins popped up on the hands of the girl in school uniform, but her hands were sliding down a little bit.
Her eyes were full of fear and her mind was blank.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die! Everything is fine, save me, I beg you, I don't want to die here, as long as you save me, I can do anything you want, I don't want to fail here!"
She didn't sound like she was talking to Huan Xiao, but like she was asking for help from something invisible.
Then, a miracle really happened in reality.
A rope lowered from the air and landed next to the girl in school uniform.
Feeling something touch her shoulder, the girl in school uniform suddenly became frightened.
She turned around and saw that it was a rope, and she couldn't help but feel joy in her heart.
"It appears, I know, I know where this is!"
The girl in school uniform didn't hesitate, stretched out a hand and grabbed the rope.
Then, she slowly climbed up the rope, and finally collapsed on the stairs.
When the girl in school uniform went up the stairs, the rope was retracted.
Huanxiao looked at the place where the rope was lowered. It was at the highest point of the stairs, a room as dark as ink.
The connection point between the room and the stairs is a blood-red door.
"This rope..."
Huan Xiao's voice talking to herself was caught by the girl in school uniform.
The girl in school uniform explained to Huan Xiao: "He is the owner of this tower. We are not entering a storybook, but we are entering a tower, the tower full of red flowers!"
"Tower? It turns out that book is the way to enter the tower." Huanxiao suddenly realized.
"That's right." The girl in school uniform was lying on the stairs, calming down her nervous mood, looking at the dark place above, her voice was trance-like:
"In a previous game, I heard rumors about the tower from the butler..."
