When I opened my eyes, what I saw in the white night was the afterglow of the setting sun, which shone through the window and printed a red glow on the ground beside the bed.
Outside the window is a forest bathed in sight, with no edges visible.
who I am?
Where am I?
What are you going to eat later?
Bai Ye, who had just woken up, was still a little confused.
He slowly sat up, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of someone lying next to him, a girl as fair and as fair as jade and as delicate as a porcelain doll.
The girl was wearing a pure white dress and looked like she was sleeping quietly.
But it gives people an unreal feeling.
"If I wake up and see a corpse lying next to me, I will definitely feel scared and be shocked."
Hearing this, Bai Ye looked up calmly.
Should you be 'scared' when you see a dead body?
The corresponding action of fear is 'startle'.
Bai Ye's heart stirred, and a look of fear appeared on his calm face.
It seemed like he had just reacted.
A winter sound.
He rolled directly off the big round bed and hit the floor.
"It turns out he didn't react."
The previous voice sounded again, seeming to be contemptuous, but also seemed to be secretly relieved.
Bai Ye calmed down and looked up.
The room is very big.
Floor-to-ceiling windows, large round bed, wardrobe, dressing table, etc.
This is a girl's room.
Finally, Bai Ye's eyes stopped at the door of the room, where five people stood quietly and looked at him.
There seemed to be some concern on the faces of the five people, and they were not in a hurry to get closer.
Seeing Bai Ye stand up and bathe in the afterglow of the setting sun, it took a full three minutes before the five people walked into the room cautiously.
Four men and one woman.
The person who spoke was a man wearing glasses and a suit, followed by three burly men with very similar looks.
The last woman has short hair and looks very capable.
The five people cooperated very skillfully. After entering the room, they quickly spread out and looked around for something in the room.
Everyone's movements were very light, and all the places they had rummaged through were restored.
After searching all the places in the room.
All five people gathered at the bedside.
The man with glasses glanced at the girl on the bed, then looked up at Bai Ye and introduced himself, "You can call me Guokui, these three are the three glutinous rice balls brothers."
Then, he glanced at the short-haired girl again.
“Xiao Long Bao.”
Is food a code name?
Bai Ye wondered whether he should also give him a code name, but to his surprise, they had no intention of asking him his name.
"Who is she?" asked the man with glasses.
Bai Ye glanced at the girl on the bed.
He shook his head to show that he didn't know him.
"Then do you know how she died?" the man with glasses asked.
Bai Ye shook his head again to express that he didn't know.
The man with glasses did not speak again, but walked to the side with his four teammates and whispered secretly.
"Didn't this kid wake up from his sleep all the time? He slept with a corpse. This kid has a really big heart."
The short-haired woman complained in a low voice.
The man with glasses lowered his head and lit up two reflective lenses.
He calmly concluded, "There are two possibilities. The first is that he is lying, and this girl may have been killed by him."
"There is too little information to analyze the reasons. It is possible that the two of them found clues to this trial, which led to conflicts or something like that."
"The second possibility...this female corpse is the boss of this trial space."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed, as if their heartbeats had skipped a beat.
Are they staying in the boss's room?
"It's almost dark, we have to leave this room quickly!"
"Why don't you let him search it before leaving? The only thing left in this room is this big round bed that has not been searched. Even if he encounters a triggering boss or is marked by the boss, it was still touched by him. "
"Yes." The man with glasses nodded in agreement, and then warned, "Everyone, please be careful and leave this room immediately if something goes wrong."
The five members of the food team made up their minds and returned to the big round bed again.
Several people did not feel scared because of the girl's body.
It seems that he is used to this kind of scene.
But the vigilant and fearful eyes indicate that their hearts are not at peace.
Corpses are not scary.
The corpse of the boss is very dangerous.
"Come and search this place!" The man with glasses looked at Bai Ye and said without any doubt.
"Search for what?"
When Bai Ye spoke for the first time, his voice was a little hoarse.
Maybe it's because I just woke up.
The man with glasses looked a little impatient, and his tone gradually became colder, "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, hurry up and find the key before we can leave!"
Bai Ye lowered his head and glanced at the girl who looked like a sleeping beauty.
Normal people should be scared when they see a dead body.
It was Bai Ye who looked embarrassed, as if he was very taboo about corpses, and said hesitantly, "But she is already dead..."
You've been lying with me for most of the day.
Are you scared now?
The man with glasses glanced at the three glutinous rice brothers, and two of the three immediately walked out, one on the left and one on the right, standing next to Bai Ye.
Bai Ye is not short, but he can't compare with the two strong men.
Under pressure, he could only slowly extend his hand to the girl.
The fingertips feel slightly cool and smooth.
There was no pulse in my wrists or neck, and my heart was silent.
Bai Ye briefly groped the girl's body.
The death of the girl was confirmed.
But the so-called key was not found.
Everyone saw Bai Ye's actions. The girl was only wearing a very simple white dress, making it almost impossible to hide the key.
The five of them did not give up. Under the strong request of the man with glasses, Bai Ye had no choice but to pick up the girl.
The girl is very light and her limbs are very soft.
As if he really just fell asleep.
Taking this opportunity, everyone explored the big round bed as quickly as possible.
The final result is still no key found.
"Let's go to the hall first and see if anyone else has found any clues."
The man with glasses finished speaking and walked out first.
The three Tang Yuan brothers sandwiched Bai Ye in the middle.
"You also come with us."
Bai Ye's eyes flashed slightly, he was not an idiot, he was just in a stronger situation and had to bow his head.
Four men and one woman form a team.
Headed by the man wearing glasses.
Under the cold gaze of the three Tangyuan brothers, Bai Ye gently put the girl back on the big bed, and then followed them out of the room.
Even if the other party doesn't bring it up, he will follow up and take a look.
There is one thing that he cares about more.
Was the door open or closed initially?
…
On the first floor of the castle, teams came downstairs one after another and gathered in the hall.
As time goes by, the sky becomes darker and darker.
The bespectacled man who left the room with Bai Ye didn't intend to wait any longer.
He was the first to speak, "I believe that everyone has searched some places in the castle, so let's share some information first."
This is not the first time that the man with glasses has participated in this trial.
As a senior trialist, he understands the importance of intelligence.
"The place we are in is a Western-style castle, with dozens of rooms connected by corridors that circle the hall."
"If you have discovered any important clues, please don't hide them. Cooperation can only lead to a win-win situation. Concealing clues will only kill everyone."
When the man with glasses finished speaking, he immediately got the approval of others.
At least on the surface I agree.
In addition to Bai Ye, there were twenty people in the hall. From their positions, it could be roughly seen that they were divided into seven teams.
Everyone was exchanging information.
Bai Ye stood aside silently and listened to them.
It's basically nonsense.
However, Bai Ye also got some information that he didn't know.
They entered a trial space called [Big Bad Wolf and Little White Rabbit].
There are two tips in it.
First tip: Big bad wolves can be very active at night.
Second tip: If you want to leave the castle, you have to find the key to the door.
