Half asleep and half awake, Gao Yi opened his eyes.
In front of him was an unfamiliar space. A TV covered with snowflakes lay on the ground a few meters away, making a constant sizzling noise.
Um?
Gao Yi woke up suddenly.
Didn’t you rest in your home? Why do you wake up in a place like this?
He wanted to struggle, but found that his hands could not move at all. With the faint light of the TV, Gao Yi could see clearly that what was tied to him at this time was actually a chain as thick as a child's arm!
The chains passed through his ribs and lower waist, and his entire body was firmly tied to a load-bearing pillar.
Well!
Well!
In the darkness, there were also sounds of struggling one after another at this time, which made Gao Yi, who was about to use the special painting, moved - was he not the only one who was tied here?
"Is there anyone there?" Gao Yi asked tentatively.
He did not expect that this sound seemed to trigger a chain reaction and immediately caused a large-scale response. In the dark and empty room, the echoes of people were noisy.
"Is anyone still here? Where is this?!"
"Put me down!"
"Who are you! Do you know this is a crime!"
"How much do you want, just ask!"
The "clatter" sound of the chain being shaken by someone continued one after another. It was only then that the owner of the voice was shocked to find that he was not the only one who appeared here, but there were more people who had suffered the same fate, waiting in panic for their fate to be pronounced.
"Don't panic, everyone!"
A calm voice sounded, and Gao Yi couldn't help but cast his peripheral vision in that direction in the darkness.
On the load-bearing pillar, the outline of a burly man's chest undulated slightly, trying his best to spread his voice to everyone's ears: "I just inspected the area, the kidnapper shouldn't be here!"
However, how can one word of consolation be found in this situation? His voice echoed in the darkness, and within a moment, it was swallowed up by the horrified people.
"Everyone is awake."
At this time, an electronic sound that was not human at all sounded in the darkness. The sound was obviously not loud, but it strangely suppressed all the noise.
who?
Not only Gao Yi, but almost everyone subconsciously followed the source of the sound. Their eyes gradually met and actually focused on the same place at the same time.
That old TV with snowflakes on it!
The sound came from there!
Everyone took a breath of air-conditioning. Just when they were extremely puzzled, as the snowflakes on the screen swayed, a blurry picture gradually appeared!
It was a dark room, and a small figure was standing in front of the camera captured by the TV screen, whispering to himself: "You seem to be in good spirits, you must have slept well, right?"
"Hello, dear tourists."
"who are you?!"
The burly man who had spoken before was now staring at the TV screen with both eyes: "Why are we tied here?"
"It doesn't matter."
The black shadow slowly replied in an electronic voice without any emotion: "Just like you have never considered other things, whether they are willing to tolerate your control."
"What did you say?"
The burly man's eyes widened, as if he had heard the most incredible words in the world, with confusion on his face.
Thinking about something else? Dominate? What on earth is this guy talking about? Shouldn't the other party ask him to contact his family and then pay the desired ransom?
The little figure ignored the astonishment of the others and continued talking to himself: "You are young, you have fun, you always feel that the future is yours, and as long as you are willing, you can control everything and live for you."
"But happiness... is not cheap. There is always something in the world that you have to pay for - discounted soda, baked cakes, delicious food, young girls, cheap people."
"What does your costly happiness feel like? I have been thinking about this question as I am on the receiving end of entertainment."
"What a madman!"
The small figure suddenly brought his face close to the screen, and the faint light from the recording lens illuminated half of his face. Gao Yi finally saw the other person's eyes clearly.
It was a pair of emotionless glass beads: "So..."
"I want to play a game with you."
"What...game?" someone asked in a broken voice.
The figure sat back again and crossed his hands: "It's very simple. It's just a counting game. It starts from 'one' and ends with the last one. I need to get a number that matches your real number."
"What if... it's wrong?" someone asked tremblingly.
"Wrong? It's simple."
The figure let out an evil laugh: "If it's less, then I'll reduce you to this number. If it's more..."
At this point, it paused, as if thinking.
"Then why not just add you to this number."
Gao Yi frowned.
He can understand the reduction in personnel. After all, it is very simple for Weiyi. All he needs to do is kill him. But what does this increase in personnel mean? Is it possible that it still has spare candidates it can invest in?
"do not think too much."
The figure seemed to have understood his thoughts, and sneered without any fluctuation: "Who knows what this added amount is."
"Everyone, get ready, let's play the game..."
After saying that, it ignored the crowd in front of the TV and was about to announce the start of the game.
"Prepare you*!"
Hysterical curses rang out from below: "If I don't play, what can you do to me? At worst, I'll die. If I die, you won't feel better either. Believe it or not..."
boom.
A gas lamp suddenly turned on, casting a ray of light in the darkness.
Everyone couldn't help but cast their eyes over, and then realized that the previous curse had disappeared, and was replaced by whimpering that kept sounding under the light.
A chair appeared out of thin air in the open space, and the man who had been cursing before was now firmly tied to the chair with a restraint belt. He stared at his round eyes and kept whimpering with his mouth sealed by the tape, as if he was begging for mercy. .
Judging from the rising needle on the chair's dashboard, this is no ordinary chair.
It's an... electric chair!
"Think about how you fantasized about consuming that girl today..."
The figure on the TV continued in a calm voice: "She works in an amusement park for her studies, but you are thinking about your perverted fun, thinking about when you can destroy her, destroy her, and turn her into your masterpiece. milestone."
"Woo!"
The figure remained motionless, like an ice sculpture: "Since the only way to redeem myself has been rejected by you, then I don't mind if I turn my fantasy into reality... I will fulfill my destiny by consuming you."
Crackling!
"Woo!"
Fine electric current suddenly climbed up the man's body. His eyes rolled white, his body kept shaking, and the switches all over his body were loose, like a broken puppet.
"Woo!"
"Woo..."
"..."
Zizzi.
Sizzling...
