Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Chapter 65: Ringo's business

Before Xu Beijin entered this nightmare, Ringo had actually not been to Xu Beijin's bookstore for several days.

He said he had something to do.

And what is that?

Ringo didn't tell Xu Beijin, but it was actually related to Xu Beijin.

Not long ago, he had warned the two taskers under Ding Yi not to spy on Xu Beijin’s bookstore. In addition, he also asked them to talk to the rest of the taskers at the bottom of the narrow building—especially those interest groups. Announce this matter.

At first, the situation did develop as Ringo thought, but as time passed, especially, as the two rumors spread among the taskers in the narrow building, things changed slightly.

The change is that there seems to be a tasker at the bottom of the narrow building, who is ready to be moved by Xu Beijin's nightmare.

They didn't spy on Xu Beijin's life because of Ringo's relationship, but just because this narrow-building resident had never opened up his nightmare.

Rumors about Xu Beijin's nightmare as the so-called "ultimate nightmare" have actually never been broken, even in the higher floors of the narrow building, there are some missionaries who believe it.

But because Xu Beijin has never fallen asleep for many years, many taskers have already given up.

But... they might be making a comeback now.

Ringo heard about this.

A few days ago, the two taskers under Ding Yi planned to leave the bottom of the narrow building to go to a higher floor after finishing part of the affairs left by Ding Yi.

Before they entered the nightmare, they found Ringo, and informed Ringo of the current developments and the subtle psychological changes of some taskers.

Because Ringo had warned them not to spy on Xu Beijin's life, they thought that Ringo should like Xu Beijin—at least value him.

Therefore, they decided to show Ringo at this juncture and let him notice that his "sweetheart" had been spotted by some ghostly missionaries.

In addition, they can be regarded as finishing off the things they have done for themselves before they leave the bottom of the narrow building.

In short, Ringo, who has been living in isolation for this period of time, finally left his and Xu Beijin's lonely life temporarily to deal with the sight of spying on them—penetrating Xu Beijin is equivalent to spying on him. .

In fact, Ringo was quite impatient, because he had warned some taskers before, especially those who had stayed at the bottom of narrow buildings for a long time and had deep-rooted forces.

But this time, the group still had a chance, thinking that they could take advantage of the persecution of other scattered taskers to make Ringo give up sheltering Xu Beijin, and this narrow-building resident had to open up his nightmare.

They may not use the same methods that the tasker did at the beginning, but they may not be able to fan the flames and spur the rest of the taskers to come forward and try.

But before that, their thoughts had been informed to Ringo by the two of Ding Yi's men. So Ringo went straight to the door and knocked one by one.

He didn't care whether this group was interested in Xu Beijin's nightmare or the relationship between Xu Beijin and him.

He pounded all those who spied on Xu Beijin.

Of course, he still followed Xu Beijin's instructions and didn't really use force to sling. At most, breaking the table to pieces... or something.

After spending a few days of work, Ringo realized with satisfaction that these guys who were trying to move in secret had wisely given up some plots.

And they did admit that before that, they deliberately instigated some taskers, just like a few years ago, once again gathered outside the door of Xu Beijin's bookstore to force Xu Beijin to open his nightmare to the outside world.

Ringo snorted, unable to understand the thoughts of these people at all. He asked, "But the power that nightmare unlocks lies in his hands. Don't you guys know this?"

After all, only if Xu Bei does his own initiative and voluntarily enters the sleep state, then the taskers can enter his nightmare through the portal that night.

Otherwise, it is useless to knock people unconscious.

If the residents of the narrow building are not willing to let the tasker enter their nightmare, then no matter how hard it is, it is useless.

And the person opposite Ringo humbly replied: "Yes, yes, we have now understood... thoroughly."

He understood how the overwhelming advantage of having a force value like Ringo in this dilapidated narrow building.

Greed and fear flashed in the man's eyes, but he was calm after all.

Because everyone knows that Ringo is uncontrollable--and even if he seems to have a sweetheart now...Look, how many people have he warned for Xu Beijin?

What if the rest of the taskers go to provoke the resident of the narrow building, and Ringo becomes a tyrant in the narrow building in a rage?

They didn't want to lose the foundation they had built so hard, so they didn't dare to provoke Ringo and Xu Bei.

However, before Ringo left, this person simply gave Ringo a small report: "Big brother, let me tell you, in fact, let's... Although we are also interested in that nightmare, we also know that. ,that is……

"That's the one, he can't sleep, and we don't want to do useless work, so just think about it, didn't really do it. But... I know, there are some people, just those...

"Hey, how can I tell you. Those taskers who used to only spend time and drink, they also pretend to be sober now, saying that they are going to a higher level to see, and want to escape the narrow building.

"And then... it seems that someone united them. Just a short time ago, I am afraid you don't know. These mobs... Now, it seems that they are deliberately entering your nightmare..."

The man lowered his eyebrows and plucked his eyes, in a very flattering tone: "Look, do you have to deal with them?"

Ringo frowned and glanced at him, and he asked bluntly, "Do you want this group of people to exist, or do you not want them to unite?"

The man was in a cold sweat, and he didn't know what to say.

Of course he didn't want that group of people to unite! He didn't even want those people to wake up! Just the same as before... Isn't it good?

How many commodity merchants are pointing to this group of fallen people to live!

Ringo said impatiently, "Don't think I'm a fool who can use it casually."

The man choked.

Ringo paused for a while, feeling quite delicately remembering what Xu Beijin had said to him before.

In fact, if it hadn't been for Xu Beijin to say to him, don't just agree to other people's things because of Xu Beijin, then maybe Ringo at this moment really rushed to the group of fallen people who were united.

However, what Xu Beijin said to him still worked.

...Humans are really complicated. Ringo whispered in her heart.

He didn't deal with the group of depraved people in this population. Who knows if what this guy said is true or not? Do those people really have any attempts at Xu Beijin's nightmare?

However, even though he had no intention of targeting the group of people, there seemed to be some rumors in the meeting this time, making the group of people think that Ringo seemed to be targeting them.

So, it didn't take long for someone to sit still and invite Ringo to have a conversation. Their place of conversation was the empty house that Ringo stepped into at this time.

To his a little surprise, the leader opposite was actually Jiang Shuangmei who had met in a nightmare not long ago.

Is this woman uniting the fallen ones...?

As soon as Ringo came in, before she had time to speak, Shuangmei Jiang spoke first.

"Boss, when I meet you this time, I want to make one thing clear." Jiang Shuangmei took a deep breath, "We know you like Xu Beijin..."

This immediately stunned Ringo.

He had listened indifferently, thinking that Jiang Shuangmei had something to say, but when he heard this, he couldn't help being stunned.

……and many more.

What?

He likes Xu Beijin?

Why doesn't he know?

Ringo looked at Jiang Shuangmei like a fool: "How do you know that I like Xu Beijin?" After he said this, he pondered the meaning, suddenly felt something was wrong, and quickly added, "I mean..."

When Ringo admitted that she liked Xu Beijin, Shuangmei Jiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She hurriedly said: "What we mean is that we know that you like the bookstore owner, so we will not provoke him or spy on your life, absolutely not."

Ringo: "..."

Although this is his request, why does this logic of ins and outs seem to be a bit wrong...?

...After all, why would Jiang Shuangmei think he likes Xu Beijin!

Ringo frowned and asked, "I mean, how did you know I like Xu Beijin? Where did you find it?"

He wondered what this meant was still not quite right, and seemed to have acquiesced that he liked Xu Beijin...but he was really confused.

Shuangmei Jiang seemed to be taken aback for a while, and she suddenly realized after a moment.

She got it!

Ringo must be in crush! She must have thought that she was hiding well and would not be discovered, and now she has revealed her mind, so her face is a little bit uncontrollable!

Jiang Shuangmei secretly slandered herself, thinking that you are already so blatant. The task force on the ground floor of the narrow building has been warned by you all the time. Are you still pretending to be here?

But she didn't dare to provoke Ringo, so she hurriedly told Ringo what she had learned, half tentative and half pleased.

She concealed the existence of the muscular man and the "devil's mask", combined the scenes she saw with some rumors she heard, and told Ringo the truth or not.

However, even though she lied about the source of the information, those things that Ringo did by herself are absolutely certain!

After listening to Jiang Shuangmei's words, Lin couldn't help being in a daze.

Take the initiative to give gifts, take the initiative to understand the other party’s preferences, take the initiative to intervene in the other’s life, worry that the other party will be angry and hate oneself, long-term company, and see the other party will feel involuntary expectation and joy...

Is this what you like?

Ringo fell silent.

Love, or love, is an overly complicated and profound proposition for Ringo's simple world. He had never considered such a thing, although in the narrow building, love affairs always seemed straightforward and cold.

He didn't think about whether he would like someone, just as he never seemed to have any regrets about his lost past, and he never thought about whether he could recall his past.

There is only now in his life.

And Xu Beijin...?

Xu Beijin brought him something different. His darkness is like the only light in the abyss of life. It seemed to light up his world, but Ringo's first reaction was his abrupt, shiny and annoying.

When he saw that spot of light, he was eager to eliminate him, just like any obsessive-compulsive disorder, he couldn't calmly face the sentence "It's not easy to kill an obsessive-compulsive disorder."

The deep reason why he wanted to fight with Xu Beijin was that, except for physical conflicts like fighting, he seemed to be unable to think of any other way to make this beam of light disappear from his life.

He felt... some kind of fear. disturbed. He felt that Xu Beijin's appearance would change his life, or soul. He felt that... there was something in this mysterious man that made him afraid.

So he eagerly wanted to fight Xu Bei.

...But when did things change?

Since he learned that Xu Bei likes drinks, he took the initiative to give Xu Beijin drinks, since he took the initiative to visit Xu Beijin’s bookstore, and since he... took the initiative to intervene in Xu Beijin’s lonely, peaceful and boring life. .

And Xu Beijin also intervened in his life.

What is Ringo's usual life like?

He might be more boring than Xu Beijin. He spends more time in a daze every day than Xu Beijin. He said he was not interested in nightmares, but if he did not enter the nightmares, he would have nothing to do in the narrow building.

This kind of inactivity may also explain why he occasionally loses his temper like a mad dog.

But after Xu Beijin appeared, his temper seemed to get better and better. The only time he wanted to take the initiative to solve a nightmare, even because he couldn't wait to visit Xu Beijin.

...And is this what you like?

Ringo knew nothing. He searched in his empty brain in vain, but he didn't find any excuses that could explain the status quo. So he simply followed Jiang Shuangmei's statement and made comparisons one by one.

Take the initiative to give gifts and take the initiative to understand the other's preferences-that's because he wants to prescribe the right medicine, so Xu Bei promises to fight with him.

Take the initiative to intervene in the life of the other party-ibid.

Worrying that the other person will be angry and hate oneself-the same as above.

Seeing the other person will feel involuntary expectation and joy-that is because he expects Xu Bei to agree to fight with him.

Long-term company——……

Long-term company...

The smooth analysis suddenly stopped. Ringo's brain seemed to be stuck, and kept reviewing these words.

...Why did he visit Xu Beijin? Even if it's just to send things to Xu Beijin, why do you keep staying in Xu Beijin's bookstore afterwards, staying for a whole day?

Ringo thought for a long time. It wasn't until his silence made Shuangmei Jiang feel uneasy that he suddenly realized that it was because he was not bored when he stayed by Xu Beijin's side.

......Is this a liking?

He didn't quite understand.

There are many things in this world that he doesn't understand. His powerful force value allows him to act recklessly, allowing him to ignore the things he doesn't understand and can't figure out. But this ability to cheat seems to be useless in Xu Bei.

He can't ignore this question as usual, he must figure it out.

But this may not be an answer for a while.

Ringo returned to his senses, raised his head, looked at the woman in front of him who was hesitant to talk, and said coldly, "I understand."

He paused for a while, and then he seemed to realize that it was not enough to say that, he had to say it a little bit more clearly.

So he added: "No matter what, don't spy on his life, his nightmare is the same. If he doesn't want others to enter his nightmare, then there must be his reason."

He decided to resolve this matter quickly, and then went to Xu Bei to ask to understand. He didn't intend to be honest with other taskers. He didn't trust these people.

Besides, he knew that they had misunderstood his relationship with Xu Beijin.

He hasn't figured out whether he likes Xu Beijin. Maybe, maybe not... In any case, he had already decided anyway, and he would not let other taskers disturb Xu Beijin.

This is what he promised Xu Beijin, and it is also his own idea.

If he couldn't even do this kind of thing, then how could he have the confidence to find Xu Bei to fight? Whether he likes Xu Beijin or not, he doesn't want Xu Bei to hate himself.

If he doesn't like it, Ringo is willing to take some time to deal with it in order to fight; if he likes it, it should be even more so.

Ringo's simple and rude thinking contains a very easy-to-understand logic-can you bully someone I like?

Although he is not sure yet...but no matter what, please adjust the specifications first!

Ringo slashed everything in a mess so quickly, and the speed was like wind and wind, making Shuangmei Jiang a little startled.

After he left, Jiang Shuangmei stood there for a long time in a daze. After a long time, she sneered and whispered to herself: "Has the mad dog also found his master..."

But she lost the only sister who was by her side.

In the past period of time, she has returned to that nightmare and tried to find her sister. However, she went to that nightmare several times, and never met her sister once, and the voice of the elevator changed back to a male voice.

She thought, either her sister has become another electrical appliance, or...

In any case, she seemed to have no chance to save Sister Jiang.

When she clearly realized this, a strong grief and despair swept through her soul.

After leaving the room, Ringo hesitated for a moment, and then walked to Xu Beijin's bookstore.

Because he had been staying in Xu Beijin's bookstore for some time before, and he always came early in the morning and left late at night, so Xu Beijin gave this guy an exception and opened the right to use the portal of his bookstore.

In other words, Ringo is free to enter and exit his bookstore. Of course, the premise is that Xu Bei is all in the bookstore.

Xu Beijin thought this was a bit strange at first, but then he thought, it was wrong. Ringo was reading books, so it was like he opened a bookstore. Is there any problem?

Thinking about this, Xu Bei calmed down in an instant.

However, what he didn't expect was that when he entered the night of the nightmare, Ringo also came to his bookstore.

Ringo knew that Xu Beijin couldn't sleep, so he opened the door and went in directly, but when he saw the man sitting on the chair who seemed to fall asleep, he couldn't help but wonder.

Fell asleep……?

Then he remembered that it should be the narrow-building resident who had entered the nightmare of others.

Inexplicably, Ringo was slightly unhappy.

This is exactly the same as when he came to visit Xu Beijin before and found that Mu Jiashi was already in the bookstore when he was upset.

He thought for a moment, and then came to a conclusion: it was as if someone was robbing Xu Beijin from him.

... But the participation of the residents of these narrow buildings in other people's nightmares seems to be completely irregular. Therefore, even if Ringo was no longer happy, he could only sit down unhappy, staring at Xu Beijin with his eyebrows, waiting for the end of the nightmare.

In the nightmare, Xu Bei felt a bit of chill inexplicably.

Where did he want to get it, a little apple broke into his home, and he looked at him with piercing eyes at the moment?

For Xu Beijin, it was really a nightmare scene.

Even though he was in someone else's nightmare at this time.

After the sentence was over, what Xu Beijin needed to do in this nightmare seemed to be over, and the main brain did not give the next step.

But this does not mean that he can move freely.

The freedom in the nightmare corresponding to the group performance level is at most when lying down, you can freely choose a comfortable posture.

But Xu Beijin is different. After acquiring the live broadcast system, as long as he can avoid the sight of taskers, he can gain almost total freedom.

He hesitated between the two choices of watching the actions of the taskers through live broadcast or continuing to explore new clues in the playground.

But then, Dai Wu, who happened to be walking from the front, saw him, so he leaned close to him, and exclaimed, "I've seen such a tossing tasker for the first time."

Xu Beijin was a little surprised: "You mean... in this nightmare?"

"Yes." Dai Wu replied, "This nightmare has always started recently. I have been in this nightmare for several days."

Several days in a row?

Xu Beijin was taken aback.

He has not entered any nightmare in these ten days; moreover, he has never entered this nightmare before. This is the first time he has played in this nightmare.

He originally thought that this nightmare was relatively rare, or that it appeared on the ground floor of a narrow building for the first time.

The latter situation is not impossible. If there are actors who go to a higher level, then new actors will be added to the bottom of the narrow building.

But, listening to Dai Wu's meaning, this nightmare already exists?

Xu Bei frowned slightly-why did he never enter this nightmare? This is the meaning of mastermind?

Dai Wu didn’t know what Xu Bei was thinking about. He talked about other things: “Zhailou is really restless recently. It reminds me of a few years ago...” He looked at Xu Beijin, “It was just then. , The time when the narrow building was particularly lively."

Xu Bei twitched the corners of his mouth and revealed a emotionless smile.

What he thought was, indeed, it was very lively a few years ago. And after that, it was a cold silence for several years.

Now, is it resurrected?

Xu Beijin didn't think for the first time that his nightmare might be remembered again. He thought of the rumor that Mu Jiashi told him before, "Someone successfully left the narrow building".

According to that, the chaos in the narrow building can be traced.

Dai Wuque suddenly showed a smirk. He said, "My buddy, do you know what the group of taskers call this nightmare?"

Xu Bei asked incomprehensibly: "What?"

"The ultimate nightmare."

Dai Wu said these words slowly, and stared at Xu Beijin closely.

As he expected, Xu Beijin's face suddenly changed when he said these words.

Dai Wu suddenly laughed. He lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Come on, buddy, for the sake of me telling you so many things, you also tell me, do you know what...what is?" The ultimate nightmare?"

Xu Bei looked at him in silence. After a while, he finally said, "You don't want to know."

His voice was hoarse and dry, with a bleak emotion.

Dai Wuwei was taken aback for a moment: "So... you really know?" He looked at Xu Beijin in surprise, and suddenly thought of the old rumor in the narrow building, his face changed suddenly, "Hey, brother, no Is it your nightmare?"

"No, it's not." Xu Beijin exhaled slightly, his emotions seemed to calm down, so he smiled instead, "Why do everyone think that my nightmare has something else?"

Dai Wu: "..."

He thought to himself, since Xu Beijin's nightmare is not the ultimate nightmare, why on earth did he prevent others from entering his nightmare? His actions like this will certainly arouse others' suspicion.

Dai Wu looked deeply at the man in front of him--this acquaintance.

What secret is he hiding?

This conversation seems to be unable to proceed, and on the other side, the taskers are also in a deadlock.

Mu Jiashi frowned, staring tightly on the white paper in front of him.

Not long ago, Wu Jian, bald head, and flower arm found white paper that could be used for writing somewhere in the playground.

So the four of them followed Fei, the collector and the group of survivors, while trying to record the clues they had discovered in the nightmare with pen and paper.

Huabi seemed to want to say something, but seeing the bald head did not respond, he kept silent.

So Mu Jiashi tried to write a few words.

Suddenly, there was a flower before his eyes. In the next second, the clear words on the white paper turned into strange garbled characters in an instant!
