"Ever since I entered the apartment, I must have become a pessimist." Yin Ye smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that even if I left the apartment, I would still be involved in the Scarlet Mission."
Mo Yuan had read the blood-letting records from that year. The person who recorded the blood-lettings obviously admired Ke Yinye. There were a lot of personal items in the records, so he knew that Ke Yinye, like him, entered the apartment voluntarily.
The purpose was to save Ke Yinyu, his adopted sister who entered the apartment at that time, and because he thought that he could finally realize his wish to resurrect his deceased lover.
"Pessimism...? Coincidentally, I am too." Dong Xie glanced at the other end of the corridor and said, "Sadly, reality is sometimes worse than we expected."
The three people fell silent for a moment.
"The cruelty of reason lies in this point." Yinye stared at the stopwatch page displayed on his mobile phone and said: "Reality has never been based on people's wishes. In fact, I am not as strong as Li Yin. He has truly crossed over.
Desperate people.”
Then, they began to move towards the 80th corridor again.
At what is supposed to be the entrance hall, once the body completely crosses the threshold, the evil spirits will start to act.
"Let me tell you my opinion." Dong Xie stared ahead, took a few deep breaths, and said: "Senior, um... it would be better if you don't participate in this operation. You are a former resident, which means that the apartment is harmful to
The restriction of your evil spirit may not..."
"Do you think that if I didn't join, the apartment might have more restrictions on evil spirits?"
"Hmm... maybe..."
"Then it's better to do another experiment." Mo Yuan thought Dong Xie's statement was reasonable: "But Dong Xie, don't forget that you are not the executor of this scarlet mission. I'm afraid the apartment's protection for you will also be affected.
limit."
On this issue, Dong Xie has reservations. In other words, his view is even opposite to Mo Yuan's. He believes that the apartment may even provide greater protection to residents who do not perform the task of "The Scary Letter", as those who actively perform the "Red Letter" task
Reward. The biggest advantage of participating in such a mission with a scarlet letter is that you can learn the hidden rules of the apartment. When this mission with a scarlet letter is over, he and Dong Ning will learn the new hidden rules. But they just don’t know, Ke Yinye
Will such a former resident have such an advantage?
"Then, let's do this." Dong Xie said next: "Conduct two more experiments, one on me and one on Mo Yuan, just like what you did just now, senior. Then see if the pace of the evil spirits is the same.
Yes, if there is a difference, it proves that the restricted protection of the apartment is different for the three of us. If it is the same..."
Yin Ye pondered, then nodded.
"Your idea makes sense."
At this time, he looked at Dong Xie with a somewhat different eye. He admired both his psychological quality and practical wisdom.
"Okay, I'll do it first." Mo Yuan said: "I am the resident who performed the Scarlet Letter this time. If there is a difference between my experimental data and Mr. Ke Yinye, it will prove the existence of restricted protection in the apartment."
In such a dangerous red mission, even if there is only a slight difference in the pace of the evil spirits, it is still the distance between heaven and hell. Although time is extremely precious now, only by fully obtaining enough experimental data can we formulate a more foolproof plan.
"What if..." Mo Yuan tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "If the apartment provides protection to me, the resident who executes the Scarlet Letter, it may even make the evil spirit pause for a long time before taking action. It is also possible."
"Well... I hope so." When Yin Ye said this, he obviously had a bitter expression, then he took out his mobile phone, reset the stopwatch, and prepared to time Mo Yuan. Mo Yuan was throwing it away
After I lost my phone, I didn’t dare to pick it back up again.
Dong Xie looked at Yin Ye's expression at this time, and he was indeed a pessimist.
Although pessimism sounds depressing, there is actually an advantage in living in this apartment, that is, you will not be easily defeated by the cruel reality, and you can anticipate the worst-case scenario and consider ways to solve the problem.
Then, Mo Yuan no longer hesitated and walked out of the entrance. Dong Xie and Yin Ye grabbed Mo Yuan's arms and promised to pull him back as soon as possible when the evil spirit came out.
Yin Ye grabbed the phone and listened with her ears straightened up.
Then...
Then he heard the voice of evil spirits.
That footsteps...
"same!"
Soon, Yin Ye discovered that the distance between steps was exactly the same as when he was standing there before!
"this?"
I was still holding on to a bit of luck, but until the door opened, the time displayed on the stopwatch did not change at all.
Dong Xie was a little unwilling to give up, so he pulled Mo Yuan in and walked out on his own!
If he goes by his speculation, he should have more preferential treatment than the residents...right?
However……
Just like before, the pace has not changed at all!
Dong Xie subconsciously stepped back and came back. Immediately afterwards, he understood something.
"The pattern of activity of this evil spirit is not restricted by the apartment! It's just like this!"
Yin Ye also suddenly realized: "So that's it. This is the kind of evil spirit that acts according to fixed rules and will only be killed if it triggers a dead end."
Such examples have not been encountered before in the Scarlet Letter mission in the past.
In this case, it will be difficult to use apartment restrictions to create an advantage for residents.
Dong Xie observed the length of the corridor in front of him, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "In that case, let's start searching from the rooms that are closer to us. After searching a room, escape immediately and return, and then continue to search each room."
"If two people are on both sides of the corridor," Mo Yuan simulated in his mind how long it would take him to run to the other side of the corridor, and analyzed: "The evil spirit should only move towards one of them. This person can
with the fastest speed……"
"Then the other person will stay on the other side as bait."
"Well, that's right."
"The premise is that this evil spirit has no clone."
"So, do we need to do another experiment?"
The "evil spirit clone" inference put forward by Yin Ye, Dong Xie concluded that it should not be true. However, if this possibility is really possible, variables will indeed occur. If you want to prove this, you must do another experiment.
"Let me do it."
Dong Xie began to rub his hands together, looked to the other side of the corridor, and said, "For some reason, I have a lot of experience in running."
Yin Ye was stunned and said, "Huh? Really, I understand."
Both Yin Ye and Mo Yuan subconsciously believed that the "certain reasons" Dong Xie mentioned were the result of his frequent escapes during the Scarlet Mission. They never expected that Dong Xie had faced endless school bullying in the past.
, couldn't win even once, so he had no choice but to run away.
"I'll move to the opposite side first..." Dong Xie raised his finger and pointed to the opposite side and said, "Then, one of us will cross the entrance hall at the same time, and then... the evil spirit will walk to the corridor. If there is a clone, the clone will
They will move towards us at the same time. If there is no clone... we can observe which direction the evil spirit will choose to move..."
Is it the person who executed the blood letter this time? Or the person who didn’t execute the blood letter this time? Or the previous resident?
Either way is possible. Maybe even random.
"The most important thing is," Yin Ye raised a finger and said: "It is necessary to consider whether the evil spirit's choice of attack target is related to distance. If it prefers to go towards the side that is closer, it will be more troublesome.
.In the process of searching the room, you will definitely keep getting closer to the evil spirit."
"I am also most afraid of this happening." Mo Yuan also had a headache about this: "If this is the case, then the other party, as a bait, needs to keep getting closer to the evil spirit."
Objectively speaking... the hypothesis put forward by Yin Ye is very likely to be true.
"This is the advantage of pessimists." Dong Xie seemed very relieved: "Although it is a very bad inference, we must take it into consideration."
Then, Dong Xie looked at the corridor in front of him and began to massage his thighs to warm up for the upcoming running sprint.
Since the evil spirit moves at the same speed regardless of whether it is a resident who executes the Scarlet Letter, he is not too worried. He is quite confident in his running speed.
