When the taskers came to the 31st floor, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded at the empty floor.

They almost unanimously said: "The nightmare is broken?!"

Yes, this is the third round of the nightmare. Generally speaking, at this time, the nightmare is indeed very likely to happen a collapse.

But as a result of the collapse, the little girl disappeared!

Such a situation immediately caused them a headache.

Some taskers even looked at Ringo subconsciously, and found that this powerful boss had shown an unhappy expression, and was even more worried about whether he would run away... Actually, the result of Ringo's runaway was the same, right?

Thinking about it, they calmed down.

The man in the suit almost made a decisive decision: "There is no elevator on the 31st floor. The little girl must take the stairs. A group of people take the stairs to see if they can catch up with the little girl. Another group goes to the 20th floor and takes the No. 3 elevator. Look for the freight elevator upstairs."

This time, the man in the suit and the teenager will not choose to stay together anymore.

In the process of grouping them, Ringo had already rushed out impatiently, and started to walk down the stairs directly.

Wu Jian glanced at the man in the Feihe suit, and then rushed out.

The boy sneered: "I'm going to find elevator No. 3."

Fei took the initiative to say: "I'll be with you." Thinking, she also pulled the goddess up by the way, "You come with us."

Another group is going to find the freight elevator on the 9th floor. It was the place where the goddess had taken the little girl with the little girl in the last round of nightmares. Fei was worried about the special reaction that the goddess would have after going there.

In addition, there are photos on the 20th floor and the No. 3 elevator that the goddess once took. What happened in the first round of nightmares, maybe they can review it again in the third round of nightmares to see if they can find any new clues.

The man in the suit obviously understood her thoughts, so he nodded and said to the other two people: "Okay, let's go to the 9th floor now."

Jiang Shuangmei and Shen Yunju walked with him.

The eight taskers then set foot on their respective destinations again. They also have no intention of looking for elevators No. 1 and No. 2, and pay more attention to what is currently going on.

For example... the whereabouts of the little girl.

Ringo and Wu saw the two of them, and ran down quickly all the way. They ran to the 16th floor in one breath, and did not see the little girl. The little girl's feet couldn't be as fast as their two big men, they couldn't keep up with the little girl's footsteps for no reason.

Ringo frowned, but couldn't think of where the little girl could go, so she walked onto the 16th floor.

He came to Xu Beijin and asked him, "Did you see a little girl?"

Xu Beijin: "..."

He looked up and looked at the little apple that suddenly appeared in front of him, feeling speechless for a while.

Wu Jian cautiously followed behind Ringo, and also walked into the 16th floor. Then, he heard Xu Beijin say after a moment of silence: "I haven't met."

Ringo asked persistently, "Where do you think she will go?"

Xu Bei thought with all his heart, do you treat me as your portable think tank?

He sighed and said with a headache: "I don't know anything..." He paused suddenly, thinking of the live broadcast system, and felt a little guilty for a while, "How can I reason? I'm not a prophet."

He still spoke out with confidence.

The audience laughed in the live broadcast room and sighed that they would still open their eyes and talk nonsense.

But Ringo looked at him and said seriously: "I can tell you the information you need. In this nightmare, in the entire narrow building, I only believe in you and only your inferences."

Xu Beijin was silent for a moment, only feeling that his heart was lightly hit by something soft.

Ringo only believes in him?

Why does Ringo only believe him?

Is he really worthy of Ringo's trust?

... Ringo really likes him?

Xu Beijin suddenly gave a wry smile in his heart.

He thought, is he stubborn? Is he preconceived? Is he biased and unfairly determined that Ringo can't like others, especially, can't like herself?

Maybe Ringo really brought this sincere feeling to him?

He was silent for too long, causing Ringo to tilt his head in confusion.

Ringo said again, "What information do you need?"

Xu Bei opened his mouth completely, and stopped talking. He deliberately discussed the sentence with Ringo carefully, and then silently swallowed it because of various concerns.

Just as he faced Lino's real concern not long ago, he also chose to remain silent and put aside the topic.

Ringo's affectionate enthusiasm made Xu Bei feel a little at a loss.

In the end, he could only say: "That little girl..."

He just wanted to ask his own question, but at this moment, a timid and uneasy voice suddenly interjected: "Hello... I'm sorry, I just want to ask... The little girl you are talking about is... it's mine. Daughter?"

Xu Beijin, Ringo and Wu Jian almost looked at this woman subconsciously.

Unexpectedly, he said: "When Fei came to ask you for information about the little girl, didn't you say nothing? Why now..."

The woman said in confusion: "What, when?"

Only then did she realize that this woman had not recovered the memories of the previous rounds of nightmares.

And she suddenly jumped out of this round of nightmare and admitted that she was the little girl’s mother, probably because they came to this floor and asked the little girl’s whereabouts, which means that the little girl may have disappeared...

Wait, she said she is the little girl's mother? Is she not dead? ?

Wu Jian was dumbfounded.

The woman couldn't help saying: "What's wrong with my daughter? I heard you ask him if he saw the little girl. Does that mean she left the 31st floor? Why did she leave? I told her to wait for me there... "

The woman babbled, but no one paid any attention to her at the moment.

The sudden appearance of the woman who claimed to be the mother of the little girl shocked the task force and the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Damn! What Beibei said is right!! The little girl's mother is really not dead!!"

"I suspect Beibei has long known that this woman is the little girl's mother. She should also be the actor?"

Faced with this problem, Xu Bei laughed and said nothing.

"……Ok, I see."

"Beibei, you are too tolerant! If it were me, I would have been spoiled for a long time!"

"Bei Bei didn't even tell us the clues of his nightmare!"

"...Now the question is, if the little girl's mother is not dead, what is going on with this nightmare? Is the ending guessed by the boy-like tasker still valid?"

"Although, the ordinary ending of taking the little girl to find the mother can still be achieved, right?"

"Then the true ending? If the little girl's mother hadn't died, the true ending might not be so simple."

"...Actually, I think that the true ending that the tasker speculated before was too simple. The Beibei live broadcast for so long, the true ending can not be inferred so logically."

"Yeah, I think this group of taskers obviously still has a lot of unexplored places. For example, the situation below the 9th floor, such as the fourth elevator, such as the other three buttons of the third elevator..."

"+1, it's too early to tell the truth."

"...No, you guys, all of you just thought that guy's reasoning was wrong, why are you denying it now..."

"I am the herb on the wall."

"I believe in what others say [呲牙笑]"

The audience in the live broadcast room quickly fooled the past with the previous arrogant behavior.

At the moment, the 16th floor is actually still in subtle silence.

Ringo looked at the woman a little inexplicably, then looked at Xu Beijin, wondering whether it was necessary to continue to let Xu Beijin guess where the little girl was going.

Xu Beijin was waiting for Ringo to speak.

As for Umbrella... Umbrella has been fainted.

In fact, he was not unaware of the problem, but as soon as the little girl's mother appeared, it seemed to completely overthrow some of the previously recognized ideas by the taskers.

"That is to say, the "visibility" of the third elevator does not actually occur on the 17th floor." It is difficult to follow the logic, "It should be the floor that the other three buttons can reach. The 17th floor is just for tasks. The hazards arranged by the author... and interference items."

Umbrella understood it.

What happened on the 17th floor was a total disturbance.

If the taskers believe that the incident on the 17th floor, which was discovered and killed by the cannibals carrying the corpse, is "reproducing" something, then they will logically conclude that the little girl's mother is dead. Came to this conclusion.

But in fact the little girl's mother is still alive.

In the second round, when Fei came to the 16th floor to question these sane survivors, they avoided talking about what they knew for various reasons, especially the little girl's mother.

I don't know how to evaluate this woman's behavior.

She left the little girl alone on the 31st floor. Regardless, even if others asked about the little girl, she pretended not to know, but when she heard the news that the little girl was missing, she immediately jumped out and hurriedly asked what happened. whats the matter.

... What kind of mother is this?

Wu Jian couldn't help but sigh.

He thought, if the owner of the nightmare is really a little girl, then he can understand why the little girl has a nightmare.

But... his thinking suddenly stopped.

He suddenly realized a question-is the owner of the nightmare really a little girl?

Since there will be interference items in the "sense of sight", will the owner of the nightmare also have the same situation?

The two choices they now face, whether it is a little girl or a little girl’s mother, are actually to be determined. They can't confirm who is the master of the nightmare.

No matter who it is, it seems that the last piece of the puzzle is missing.

If it is a little girl, then why does she know about those elevator-related incidents? Why can we create a "sense of sight"?

If it's the little girl's mother, the woman in front of her, then she doesn't seem to be scared at all, or even so worried about her daughter.

This overturned the previous conclusion.

Previously, the taskers believed that the little girl’s mother was the owner of the nightmare, and the object of her fear was the fact that she had left the little girl behind, and therefore evaded her behavior in the subconscious mind. Instead, she identified the goddess as the little girl’s mother.

But now this woman who claims to be the mother of the little girl doesn't seem so guilty for the daughter she left behind.

In short, no matter who is the owner of the nightmare, these two people seem to have some problems.

What if other talents are the masters of nightmares? What if these two people are interference items?

Seeing it is impossible again.

Because the interaction between the goddess and the little girl shows that the mother and daughter indeed have an extraordinary role in this nightmare.

They, unless one of them is the owner of the nightmare, can’t explain why the goddess appeared in that photo, why she behaved so strangely, and why her bracelet appeared on the little girl’s hand in the second round. .

Thinking about it carefully, Wu Jian couldn't help but get a headache, always feeling that this nightmare has been messed up.

Of course, he also knew that the ordinary ending must be very simple, that is, lead the little girl to find her mother, or lead the woman in front of him to find her daughter.

But what is the real end?

Everyone knows that only the true ending can explain everything.

When everyone was silent, the woman was already hysterical: "Tell me! What happened to my daughter?!"

Wu Jian recovered and took a deep breath: "We didn't see your daughter on the 31st floor. We suspect that she came downstairs to find you."

The woman's expression was dull all at once.

She murmured: "How could it be...how could it...I told her clearly, let her stay in a safe place and wait for her mother to come back...impossible..."

Wu Jian couldn't help asking: "What do you think? Why do you want such a small child to stay alone on the empty floor?"

The woman glanced at him, but said: "The 31st floor is safer than any place."

It was startled for a moment.

The woman said: "The decorators will not go to the upper floors because the damage is not large enough. If they come up with a genius idea and know how to repair the broken windows, then the situation will change.

"And the cannibals will not go there, because no one is in the upper floors. Everyone wants to leave, and then...all go into the decorator's bucket or the cannibals' stomach.

"We are stuck here because the 16th floor is their blind spot. The canteen chose the 14th floor before the cannibals, because...their madness first appeared on the 14th floor, and then they went down, no Up.

"They also use the 15th floor as a place of punishment... If someone among the cannibals wants to defect, they will take people to the 15th floor and show them the burning city outside, and then those people dare not leave. .

"There are fewer and fewer people like this now. Since the 15th floor was used once a few days ago, the cannibals have never led people there. It is estimated that there are only tables and chairs used for executions on the 15th floor. .

"The cannibals and the decorators have a relationship between the well water and the river water. But at the beginning, the cannibals were worried that the decorators would steal their food materials, so they picked a bridgehead and wanted to observe the decorators' actions.

"The 18th floor is where the group of decorators work, so they picked the 17th floor. But later, the cannibal found that the decorators would not be bothering them, so they simply used the 17th floor as a storage place for ingredients.

"So, the 16th floor became our only choice."

Having said this, the woman showed a slightly bitter expression. She said: "Of course I know that if she is left alone on the 31st floor, she will be very scared, but I can't help it."

The women's words solved some of their doubts, especially the 15th floor.

but……

Seeing a moment of silence, he said: "Since the 16th floor is safe, then you can..."

"Temporarily safe." The woman said, she glanced at Xu Beijin, "When the food here runs out, we will start desperately too."

Suddenly, there was silence.

He wanted to say that he remembered other taskers saying that when they found the little **** the 31st floor, the little girl's body was scattered with food packages that had been eaten, and the little girl's stomach was already groaning with hunger.

In other words, even on the 31st floor, the situation of the little girl is not so good.

But... but what can he say to this woman?

In such a doomsday...

In the end, Wu Jian just kept silent.

At this time, Xu Beijin said, "The little girl left the 31st floor to find her mother. Did you tell her where you were?"

The woman stopped talking, and finally just shook her head in embarrassment.

"So she doesn't know where you are going." Xu Beijin didn't express any personal opinion about the woman's behavior. He looked at Ringo and Wu Jian, "Did you take the little girl where you went before?"

Just as Ringo wanted to explain, Wu Jian hurriedly said: "After being brought out from the 31st floor before, the goddess...someone took the little girl directly to the 9th floor."

He didn't know if the little girl had recalled the experience of the last round of nightmares, but since she had inexplicably taken the initiative to leave the 31st floor, then she probably recalled her previous experience, and then thought of going to her mother. .

In any case, since Xu Bei has asked all the questions, Wu Jian will tell the story.

Ringo glanced uncomfortably, but because he was doing business, he held back.

He turned to observe Xu Beijin and confirmed that Xu Beijin's face had not changed, nor showed any discomfort, and then he nodded in satisfaction.

Ringo turned to a slightly distressed thought, is this what she likes?

Why, if you like someone, it will cause you to worry about it?

He thought about these questions, his face remained expressionless, and he didn't let anyone notice his mood swings at all. He just looked at Xu Beijin quietly.

And Xu Beijin didn't notice his thoughts. He just said, "If the little girl went to the 9th floor and didn't find her mother, then this time, she should look for it one by one?"

Wu Jian nodded, thinking that Xu Beijin's words made sense, but then he said: "No...no. The little girl should know that there are some floors we have been to, and there is no mother there...but the problem It's in those floors..."

Xu Beijin said, "Is there any danger?"

Wu Jian's face slowly turned pale.

The 20th floor is still that way.

The three taskers, the teenager, the scare, and the goddess, arrived on the 20th floor and found the way along the third elevator. None of them found the little girl's whereabouts.

The boy couldn't help complaining, "Where did that kid go?"

No one answered his question. He asked himself to be bored, so he rolled his eyes and remained silent.

They also went to see the photo. The face on it is still a goddess, and the little girl in the photo still wears the bracelet.

The goddess looked at the photo in a daze. When Fei was almost worried that she would do something strange again, she lowered her eyes as if she was not interested in the picture.

The boy said, "I told you that you are not the little girl's mother at all. You were misled by this nightmare." He looked at the goddess, "Have you never encountered such a nightmare at a higher level? "

The goddess hesitated for a long time, and finally said softly: "I have encountered it."

In certain nightmares at higher levels, taskers will be imposed on a layer of...false settings? It was similar to the hypnotic experience that Wu Jian and Jiang Shuangmei had experienced before, but it started as soon as they entered the nightmare.

Sometimes, the taskers even forget their identity, thinking that they are really living in a nightmare.

Therefore, for a teenager, the goddess's hips were pulled, really embarrassing the face of higher-level taskers. She is not setting her identity in the true sense, but just a hint added by the nightmare...

As for?

The boy wanted to ask that.

The goddess glanced at the photo one last time, took a deep breath, and finally managed to return to normal.

They came to elevator number three.

The man in the nightmare suit pressed six layers in the last round, but now there are three buttons that have not been pressed, namely the eleventh, nineteenth, and thirty-five layers.

The boy didn't hesitate, so he directly pressed the eleventh floor.

He suddenly looked at the goddess and asked, "Do you remember which button you pressed before?"

He didn't expect the goddess to answer this question. He just tried it. After all, the goddess was in a state of panic at that time, who knew what she remembered.

But after staring at the buttons for a while, the goddess said with certainty: "It's the eleventh floor."

"Eleventh floor," the boy murmured, "Go to the 18th floor."

The elevator was slowly moving downwards, but it took more time than they expected. The teenager silently calculated the time in his heart. When the elevator stopped, they spent a total of ten seconds or nearly twenty seconds before the elevator finally stopped.

The boy blinked and suddenly said, "I suspect we have reached below the 9th floor."

His suspicion is correct. When they stepped out of the elevator, the taskers found that the scenery outside the windows of this floor seemed closer, probably already a relatively low floor.

The security door in the stairwell was blocked, and the floor signs were flooded with bricks. They could not see the floor signs from the inside. They could only estimate based on time. It might be the seventh or sixth floor.

This layer appears very dim.

It was already evening at this time, and now there are no lights in the room. If it is a little bit higher, the burning city outside can also help with lighting, but on this floor, the side building blocks the light source.

Therefore, this layer is almost invisible.

They tried to walk on this floor, but it didn't take long for the boy and Fei to cry out in pain.

They stepped on sharp objects, possibly broken glass or other sharp objects, which directly scratched their legs and feet, and even cut their shoes.

On the contrary, it was the goddess, who didn't know what principle it was based on, and unexpectedly avoided all dangerous places.

The boy said incredulously: "Is this layer specially used to hurt people?!"

Fei didn't say a word, just frowned.

They stumbled across this floor and found nothing. They were just covered with glass shards and strange sharp tools on the whole floor. They didn’t know whether it was scissors, blades or fruit knives, and some even stood upright. On the floor.

Some wounds inevitably appeared on their feet.

Finally, the three of them endured the pain and returned to the elevator.

The young man sighed, frowning fiercely, and slammed on the elevator's door opening button.

But at this moment, he suddenly stunned.

Because, after he pressed the door open button of the elevator, it was not the No. 3 elevator they took to open.

It was an elevator that originally stopped on this floor.

…Elevator No. 4, right here.
