Because they all came here after falling asleep, everyone was barefoot. In the end, the man with glasses dug out a few pairs of slippers in one of the rooms, so that everyone would not walk completely barefoot.
The seven people moved forward cautiously, and then came to an old staircase.
"It seems like... there's no one there?" the long-haired woman clinging to the little girl said in a low voice.
Everyone is holding wooden boards, chairs and other "weapons" in their hands now. Although I don't know if there is anyone here, gathering seven people together can still build up a lot of courage.
"Well, can you two go at the front?" The man with glasses said to Dong Xie and the muscular man: "You two are the tallest. If there is an ambush below..."
Everyone has noticed that Dong Xie is the tallest among the seven, but they would never have thought that he is an absolute weakling in fighting.
"Okay." The muscular man shook the wooden board on his hand and said to Dong Xie: "Then, brother, what do you say?"
"Okay..." Dong Xie felt that given his height, if he acted too timidly, he might arouse the suspicion of evil spirits. Although it was true that he was weak in fighting, it was obviously unreasonable for ordinary people.
.
However, he was still very uneasy in his heart. Everyone behind him might be an evil spirit. As long as the evil spirit had the slightest doubt about him, he might kill him immediately. However, he could not show it.
As we reached the floor below, it was still quite dark and not a single person could be seen.
"What the hell is this place..." The fat man's voice came from behind: "Who on earth wants to kidnap us all here?"
"Calm down... According to the plot of the mystery novel, in this case, maybe we have something in common?" This was the voice of the eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy.
After hearing this, everyone immediately started talking.
"Are we all rich?" The fat man seemed to be quite wealthy and asked, "Are you all the second generation of rich people?"
"Are you kidding? I just work outside," the long-haired woman said, "and I'm still a moonlight earner. I haven't paid off my credit card yet."
"Then you still run out of money every month?" The young man became confused.
“Have you ever heard of the term exquisite poverty?”
"Don't go that far," the man with glasses then said, "If someone kidnaps us, there must be some conspiracy. I think this young man is right. We may have one thing in common."
However, for Dong Xie, he knew very well that the other five people except the evil spirit were purely used to interfere with his judgment, and there was no need to have anything in common. The apartment might have randomly selected five people.
Ordinary people were involved in this mission in Scarlet. Thinking about it carefully, they were involved in this without knowing anything at all. It was really sad. Even when they were killed, they couldn't understand why they did it.
Die. This apartment...doesn't take human life seriously at all.
This is indeed a devil's apartment.
Finally, the group of people arrived at the ground floor.
"Is there no one?" The muscular man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But after discussing it all the way, I really didn't find that we have anything in common?"
The man with glasses made a sad face and said: "If I have to say it forcefully, the only thing I can say is that we are all Chinese."
This is obviously a self-deprecating statement.
"Don't worry about it for now," the long-haired woman said, "Let's find a way to escape from here first. Then we'll find a place to call the police!"
Soon, the group of people arrived at the gate of the abandoned hotel.
Outside, the sound of waves can be heard from time to time.
After walking out of the abandoned hotel, they saw the signboard at the door of the hotel saying "Haitian Hotel".
"Where exactly is this place?"
"Where are we going?"
The bespectacled man looked back. Far behind the coast, there was a hill and some low flat houses.
…
More than half an hour later.
Seven people climbed to a relatively high hillside and finally determined that this was an island.
Judging from the size, it should be only a dozen square kilometers at most, making it a very small island. There are no woods on the island, only a small village.
"We are on an island?" The man with glasses looked in disbelief, then looked behind him and said, "And it looks... like an uninhabited island?"
Everyone's faces became very ugly.
"That..." The young man raised his head, looked at the night sky, and said, "That, is it the Big Dipper or the North Star? You can tell the direction just by seeing it..."
Surrounded by endless sea level, no other islands can be seen.
"Maybe there will be others on the island?" Dong Xie said: "Maybe they can take us..."
"I'm afraid there won't be anyone on this island..." The bespectacled man raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, "I just walked here and observed that both the streets and the houses have obviously been abandoned for a long time. No wonder.
Instead of tying us up, our kidnappers took us to this island and then left. They must have been sure that we couldn't escape from the island, and I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to find a boat on the island. When the time came, our kidnappers
Will definitely come back to the island.”
"Then, what is their purpose? Ransom?" The long-haired woman quickly asked: "My parents are from rural areas and don't have much money!"
The little girl holding the stuffed toy started crying loudly again, calling her parents.
"Is it just like those American blockbusters, where they capture us and do experiments?" The boy seemed to have watched a lot of movies, "It's like "The Maze Runner", "The Maze Runner", etc.
This kind of routine?"
"What kind of movie is that?" the long-haired woman asked doubtfully, "I've never heard of it, what is it about?"
"Well, the protagonists here are all similar to us. When they wake up, they find themselves in a huge maze. "Another Dimension Killing Formation" is a maze connected in an endless cubic room, while "Maze Runner" is
yes……"
"That's a Hollywood movie. How could there be such a nonsense plot in reality..." The man with glasses obviously couldn't accept this kind of thing: "I don't believe it!"
"Leng, calm down... Let's all calm down first..." The long-haired woman took a deep breath and said, "In this case, why don't you all introduce yourselves first and tell us in detail about our respective experiences before we were brought here?
Maybe we can find something in common. My name is Lan Yu, I am 24 years old this year, and I used to work as a salesperson in a clothing store in City W. I fell asleep in the house I shared, and that place is indeed safe.
But I have two roommates. They are both night owls and usually go to bed at one or two in the morning. If someone enters the room and kidnaps me, they will probably find out."
The bespectacled man pushed up his glasses again, straightened his somewhat disheveled hair, and said: "I...my name is Chen Siyu. I am from City L. I am 29 years old. I am a game programmer. You...you know "Fire Blue"
"Empire" is one of the games produced by our company."
"Well, sorry, I haven't heard of it."
"I haven't heard of it either... Is it a mobile game or a client game?"
"Forget it," Chen Siyu sighed, "It is indeed a little-known game."
Dong Xie had never heard of this game. If he had played it, he could use this to ask. However, he thought again. If he was really a game programmer, he might also know something about other well-known games.
If it is an evil spirit, it is doubtful whether it would know this.
"It was rare that the company didn't work overtime last night, so I went home and went to bed very early... I am single and live alone, but the community where I live has good security, and I locked the door before going to bed..."
Having said this, he looked around again and said: "The people who kidnapped us here are definitely not ordinary criminal organizations! Ordinary people are not capable of that!"
"It's not aliens, is it?" The muscular man said from the side: "I feel like this isn't even something humans can do. It's just too supernatural!"
After a while, the eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy said: "Well, my name is Yuan Ping, I am 19 years old, a college student, and a native of T city. I formed a suspense novel club in the university, which specializes in studying
Some mystery novels, horror novels and the like. Our current situation is really very similar to these novels."
Next, it was Dong Xie who spoke: "Well, my name is Zhao Qishan, 27 years old, from SZ..."
