All eyes are on this supermarket cashier.

"Have you seen?"

The boss first asked this question stupidly.

The third child, Ding Yi and Mu Jiashi exchanged their gazes, but in the end their gaze fell on the selfish ghost with a gloomy expression.

In their view, the direct result of Dai Wu's acquaintance with the little boy is that the question of what the selfish ghost knows seems to be exposed.

The atmosphere between the taskers seemed very strange for a while.

"I have seen... elder brother." The little boy whispered, "the day when father killed mom... I saw him, elder brother."

The complexion of some taskers suddenly changed.

Dai Wu said in a panic, "Hey, don't talk nonsense, kid."

"What happened?" Mu Jiashi asked in a deep voice, "What else did you hide?"

"nothing much…"

"On the day that the murder happened, did you meet this family?"

Dai Wu scratched his face, and said in anguish, "Oh, I've seen it before...I dare not talk about it. This has nothing to do with me. Who knows that the lunatic will give his wife to his wife after he gets home. killed…"

The third child frowned tightly. He urged: "What happened?"

There was an anxiety in his heart, because the man in black who was missing at this time gave him the feeling of a time bomb.

The schedule in this nightmare has always been very tight.

The pursuit of the black man, the rushing between different scenes, the interval of only one minute when reporting the count, the influence of different vehicles on the speed of the parking lot, the ability to quickly talk to NPCs in the service area...

Everything sounds like a very fast reaction ability and the ability to grasp time.

And now, they have not faced the pursuit of the man in black for a long time.

This is the fourth round of the nightmare, and the situation should become more urgent and dangerous. They are still slowly looking for clues and information to piece together the truth behind the nightmare.

It shouldn't be like this.

The third child took a deep breath and barely suppressed the anxiety and helplessness in his heart.

When the three of them entered a nightmare, of course they thought it well. Whatever the first round of nightmare, it will get through the true ending, what kind of settlement draw card to draw out rare cards...Anyway, it's all dreams, the more beautiful the better.

However, the situation is that, in the chaos and quarrel, they came to the fourth round of the nightmare in a daze.

Until now, they are still wary and suspicious of each other. Until now, they have not understood what the difficulty of this nightmare is.

The third child looked at the cashier in the supermarket.

And the latter seemed to fall into the memory: "It was... hey, I worked here, it was a normal day.

"Then this family of three seemed to be out to play. That woman... is the deceased, and she chatted with me a few more words during the checkout, and then her husband was upset, and she started to scold me and the deceased at that time. Scolding the deceased to be shameless, doing three tricks and four tricks.

"I was shocked. In fact, I just talked about this service area, asked for directions, and then I told her what the checkout amount was. It didn't matter at all... Then her husband seemed to think that his wife had cheated.

"I also said that I was smiling at her because it was unkind. Please, I am a cashier. Do I have to smile at every customer? Anyway, she was speechless. At that time, her husband... had a very wrong attitude.

"I feel like he has some kind of paranoia. He always thinks that his wife is going to cheat and hook up with other men. Staring at me all the time, I feel like he is going to kill me.

"Then the man got back into the car first, and the deceased said something to me. She said that her husband had always suspected that she was cheating, so this time she thought that a family of three would come out and relax. But...

"My colleague also told me that the man was not peaceful even when he went out of the supermarket, and he was still arguing at the gas station and parking lot, causing other passengers to be onlookers.

"Then some people thought that woman was too pitiful and wanted to help, but was scolded by the man again. He said that the helper was salty pigsty. He fell in love with his wife and said that his wife Hongxing was out of the wall... .

"Anyway, a few days later, news broke out saying that there was a wife murder case. I didn't think much about it at the time. Later, when the news came out, the deceased and the murderer's photos, I just... suddenly remembered that back then. Things.

"Oh...but I really don't want to get involved with this thing! Can you understand? It has something to do with me!

"I and the family were not relatives, but when they went out, I settled an account with them, and then someone died because I laughed at her? This is too unreasonable to make trouble.

"Anyway... the police didn't find me afterwards, and I didn't dare to take the initiative to mention this matter."

As he said, the supermarket cashier sighed and showed a wry smile. He looked at the little boy and said in a weird tone: "I didn't expect you to remember me. I didn't expect...that's the day your mother died." Then he said to others, "You can understand me, right?"

How can any task person have time to deal with him?

In his long string of words, there is obviously a lot of information in series.

The little boy's father has always suspected that his mother was cheating. In order to bridge the relationship between husband and wife and family, the deceased chose to go out to play with her husband and son on this day.

However, when they drove to a service area to rest and go shopping, because the wife was joking with the cashier in the supermarket, the husband was convinced of his wife's cheating. After returning that day, he killed his wife in rage.

The little boy’s nightmare is not only the dark bedroom symbolizing the death scene of his mother, but also the imagery of parking lots, highways, service areas, etc., probably because it belongs to his mother—

Road to death.

Before the live broadcast, Xu Bei took a deep breath.

He once knew, or at least understood, the script owned by some actors.

Whether it is some gossip, or information that is unintentionally revealed by the task force. He has always heard of some.

But those are just faint rumors, more similar to... "Really?" "Yes, it's so miserable." Such a conversation.

He has a concept about these nightmares, but he doesn't grasp it very clearly.

But... until then.

When he has a live broadcast system, it means that he can at least clearly understand the development of the whole nightmare from the perspective of the bystander.

And he seemed to underestimate the malice contained in the nightmare.

He hoped that the nightmare was false, a script rather than real. He sincerely hopes.

But... what about the actors?

For many actors, Zailou—and these nightmares—is their life. Play is like life, life is like play.

They began to recognize the identity of their NPC, and they began to recognize the role given to them by the mastermind. They began to—actually become, the characters in that script.

Like this man in black. He might really think that he was the man who directly killed his wife with jealousy. He is the man in black who is holding a machete and chasing everyone in his son's nightmare.

He has become that murderous demon.

Then, the tragedy in the script is no longer a false tragedy, but a real one.

Like Wu Shen, he is unwilling to actually make a six-year-old girl into a doll, he is unwilling to enter the play, he really does something against his moral conscience, and he is unwilling to forget that he is actually just one, trapped After all, the players in the game are a minority.

And like Dai Wu, there are even fewer actors who live optimistically and fearlessly, and even enjoy themselves.

Xu Beijin has been in the narrow building and watched with cold eyes for many years. It is really difficult for him to sigh the little boy's family tragedy as the audience in the live broadcast room does, and at the same time use the setting of a game to comfort himself.

He can't do it at all.

He always half-opened his eyes sleepily, although his features were handsome, but his dark circles were heavy. He always looks like he can't wake up, or he has never slept before.

He was always in a daze, as if his thoughts were extremely empty, and if he used his brain more, he would be sleepy and unable to sleep for a long time.

However, he clearly knew that the human beings in the narrow building were going to be over.

They are going to be over. The actors, taskers, and all the humans trapped in the narrow buildings, they are going to end.

Xu Bei sat there silently.

He thought, it seemed that the drink Ringo gave him worked. His thinking was so active that he remembered some questions he didn't want to think about at all.

…Well, sure enough, you shouldn't have a fight with Ringo.

Xu Beijin slowly let go of those thoughts, just as he had always done.

He relaxed and yawned tiredly. Because Ringo was sitting not far away, he was careful to make the yawn more elegant.

In the live broadcast room, the audience was still discussing the little boy's encounter with his mother.

Obviously there were only four viewers—five, and a new audience. Although he didn't pay attention to Xu Beijin's live broadcast room—but they showed a mighty force on the public screen of the live broadcast room.

Xu Beijin looked at their barrage, but found no important information. The series of thoughts just now made him feel a little unconscious, but he still continues to be a qualified anchor, or in other words, a director?

At least he is trying to present a better perspective and lens to the audience.

For the taskers, their response was more focused on the usefulness of the information disclosed by the cashier in the supermarket.

Now they know the full story background of the nightmare, and know the usefulness and symbolic meaning of these scenes.

So... what's the ending?

The old third thought for a moment and hesitated to put forward his own opinion: "Since the death of the deceased is a misunderstanding, then...who wants to untie the nightmare’s master’s heart, the murderer should be aware of this and admit that he had committed it in the first place. Is it a mistake?"

"For adults, it may be like this." Mu Jiashi calmly analyzed, "But for a ten-year-old boy, he may not understand why his father suddenly killed his mother, and he does not understand at all. Winding around."

The taskers looked at the little boy at the same time.

The little boy pulled behind Ding Yi and looked at them timidly.

Mu Jiashi touched his nose in embarrassment: "Of course, you don't need to listen to me, I..."

The selfish ghost sneered and said, "You are a trash, a loser. Right?"

"Yes." Mu Jiashi glanced at him and admitted frankly, "I am just a waste and loser."

The selfish ghost choked for a while.

He couldn't think that Mu Jiashi would directly admit these two terms so shamelessly.

…Is this something glorious?

The second brother said impatiently: "Can you stop, please? We don't have the time to quarrel with you."

The selfish ghost took a deep breath and said, "Is that right? I wanted to tell you what I know..."

Beside him, he was hesitant to speak for the dead ghost, showing an anxious and nervous expression.

The selfish ghost dragged his tone, as if waiting for someone to keep him, but everyone ignored him and discussed the outcome of the nightmare.

He took a deep breath in annoyance, and then said loudly, "Well, anyway, everyone knows the information, so I will add the last one."

The supermarket is quiet.

The selfish ghost finally felt a little more comfortable. He smiled and said, "I had this nightmare once."

There was a barrage of "Beijing is too strong" in the live broadcast room.

The rest of the taskers finally got serious.

The selfish ghost said: "We learned so much this time. We made a mistake and said that we reported the number by mistake, and then we found the little boy. Actually, the number is quite simple.

"Then another group of taskers went to the service area and also heard from this guy that the death of the dead woman was actually a misunderstanding, so I felt that by solving this misunderstanding, the true ending could be reached. NS…"

The boss was anxious, and the first one asked: "What then? Did you succeed?"

"Are you a fool? It's just a normal ending." The selfish ghost rolled his eyes. "If it succeeds, I will stand here?"

The boss also rolled his eyes.

Although this guy ruled out a wrong path for them, but... also really unhappy.

Sure enough, a nuisance is a nuisance.

The selfish ghost was still there and sighed: "Oh, it's a pity that I was not queued to the bedroom group this time... the **** mastermind. If I get past, I will take you to fly..."

More than one tasker rolled his eyes.

The second brother's tone was impatient: "You didn't tell us about this before, but now? Is it interesting? Can you ensure the credibility?"

The selfish ghost laughed: "I just don't want my previous labor to be occupied by you, what's wrong? I'm a lone wolf, what's wrong?" He pointed to the dead ghost again, "By the way, I told him some of the information, and it was verified. Now. This can be regarded as a credibility certification, right?"

The taskers looked at the survivors one after another.

At this time, the dead ghosts were all stupid.

He thought to himself, this guy is a good person, what about himself?

Before being questioned by the third and other people, he was still determined not to speak, as if he was very steadfast and unyielding, and provoked these people over and over.

The things that offended people are all done, and then it's alright. The selfish ghost sold him, and instead came to set up a memorial?

For the dead ghost, there was some confusion for a while.

He thought, is he real, is he a ghost?

The selfish ghost was a little annoyed that he didn't respond to the dead ghost in the first time.

He was about to get angry, and suddenly, there was a scream at the door.

Although the taskers were in the entire service area and only spoke to the two narrow-building residents, Dai Wu and Xu Beijin, in fact, there are quite a few other narrow-building residents in the service area, which makes this service area really look like It's the same in business.

At this time, a salesperson at the entrance of the supermarket slumped to the ground and screamed in horror.

Several taskers looked at the door at the same time, and in the next second, they were all taken aback. Because the man in black wearing a black mask and holding a machete is standing at the door!

The third child almost subconsciously looked at the little boy again. He saw the young child, squatting on the ground in fear, and began to mutter words again, seeming to be repeating the series of numbers—the series of numbers his father forced him to count down to his mother's life.

"Twelve minutes!" The youngest had a flash of inspiration, and said loudly, "It's twelve minutes! After this little boy arrived here, the man in black must have returned to the starting point of the dark bedroom, waiting for the eight minutes of the count to pass, and then Leaving the bedroom, crossing the promenade, driving here, heading straight for the little boy..."

Eight minutes, plus three minutes by road, plus half a minute to one minute from outside the service area, for a total of twelve minutes.

It just happened to be the time they spent just now.

According to time, the whereabouts of the man in black can be calculated. But he didn't know, why after the little boy arrived at the service area, the man in black had to start another action from the bedroom side?

This seems totally unreasonable.

The third child's voice gradually lowered. He temporarily put aside his doubts about the actions of the man in black, and muttered to himself: "So, we are now..."

What to do?

Is it to reach an ordinary ending directly according to the selfish ghost's statement; or to struggle again, try the fifth round of nightmare, and try to get through a true ending?

The man in black Jie Jie smiled, holding his machete, walking towards them slowly. Everyone in the supermarket screamed in horror. The cashier in the supermarket had no idea where to hide.

The little boy squatted on the ground, covering his ears, closing his eyes, and let out a faint and miserable cry and scream.

The third child is out of mind, and subconsciously looks at the second brother, hoping that the backbone of their team will come up with an idea.

And the second brother smiled contemptuously and said: "Why hesitate? Of course it is the true ending!"

The selfish ghost said loudly: "Yes! And, I can't waste this opportunity!" His eyes looked at the rest of the taskers fiercely, "The goal can only be the true ending!"

The second brother seldom echoed his thoughts: "I have already come here, don’t you try to reach the true ending, don’t you regret it? And..." He paused, "Anyway, we already know what the normal ending is. If there is a true ending, then just mix it with the ordinary ending."

The youngest hesitated, but finally nodded.

The boss listened to the second brother as always.

Silence for the dead ghost, only feeling that the future is bleak.

Ding Yi looked down at the little boy and seemed to be thinking.

Only Mu Jiashi wanted to say something but stopped. There were ominous premonitions and signs of anxiety in his heart, but he couldn't say anything famous.

Indeed, they have already come here, the nightmare is clear, and the ordinary endings also know how to fight, so why not try the true ending? Anyway, nothing was wasted.

Yes...that's it. He convinced himself so, trying to calm himself down.

Although, a few minutes later, when the man in black was carrying a machete, laughing and killing them; when the nightmare restarted, the eight missionaries returned to the original position of the nightmare; when Mu Jiashi stood on the promenade, habitually When I look back...

He suddenly froze.

He asked with a trembling tone, "Where is the man in black? Where is the man in black...?"

Of the four people present, Ringo was the most at a loss.

Both the selfish ghosts and the dead ghosts instinctively turned their heads and looked back, towards the end of the corridor-as far as they could see, there was no one. Their eyes can reach the door of the dark bedroom at the end.

The man in black who should have appeared and hunted them down, disappeared.

Mu Jiashi trembled suddenly, feeling that the situation was sliding into an abyss of irreparable pain.

Where did the man in black go?

In the live broadcast room, Xu Bei switched the scenes as quickly as possible, the bedroom, the promenade, the highway, the gas station...none. The figure in black is nowhere to be seen.

At this moment, he had already heard the miserable crying from outside the bookstore.

He was stunned.

The scene of the live broadcast stopped at the central flower bed in the service area.

The man in black is like a jackal breaking into a herd of innocent and powerless lambs, wantonly slashing and killing the bewildered residents of the narrow building—he is killing the actors!

Xu Bei couldn't help standing up, leaving the bookstore, standing in the corridor, staring blankly at this scene. Dai Wu didn't know when he appeared beside him.

He said softly, "He is crazy."

Xu Bei looked at him.

"This actor," Dai Wuyong said in a wonderful tone, "he has become the murderous madman—the one who killed his wife, chopped the corpse into pieces and rushed into the sewer, killing people. Crazy demon."

Xu Bei remained silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "We are saved."

Dai Wu shook his head. His tone was still jumping and brisk, making Xu Beijin feel a little uncomfortable: "Don't be silly, this is a plot kill. The main brain will not let you leave this corridor."

Xu Bei looked at him in confusion, then suddenly reacted: "You mean..."

On the barrage in the live broadcast room, the reasoning boss sent a barrage with passion.

"This is the fifth round of nightmare! In the fifth round, the nightmare has an unpredictable collapse!

"This man in black has actually opened an indiscriminate massacre mode!"

After a while, some actors died. The nightmare restarted from this.

The reasoning boss said excitedly: "I thought that the nightmare will only restart when the quest person dies. Now it seems that as long as there is death in the nightmare, whether it is the actor, the quest person or even the NPC, as long as there is death, the nightmare It will restart.

"People in black kill people indiscriminately, and the time to cause death is about five minutes. I don't know if this time will be shortened as the nightmare restarts again.

"It takes at least three minutes for these taskers to rush from the promenade to the service area to stop the massacre of the men in black; if they want to try to bring the little boy over, they need at least seven minutes to report the count-it's too late!

"More importantly, can they understand? Can they realize that the men in black are killing them in the service area?!

"Anyway, these taskers must make plans as soon as possible!"
