One, two, three, four... four people, no more, no less, are all deities.
Finally reached the last step.
Lin Sanjiu withdrew her gaze, let out a long breath, slid down the car wall, sat on the ground and watched as the elevator door began to close. The uneven elevator doors on both sides "clack-clack", gradually closing the bloody and bloody doors outside.
The screen was reduced to a narrowing gap until it could no longer be seen.
For a moment, the elevator was quiet, with only the low sound of the machinery running. Neither Bohemia nor the former guard dared to speak, and the puppet master certainly would not take the initiative to chat. Lin Sanjiu thought for a while alone, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt
strangeness.
"When I was alone in the stairway, one of your light fish swam back. When I rushed back to the hall, the light fish swam back again. If it hadn't been for it, I might not have been able to find you so quickly." She said towards her.
Bohemia asked, "What happened to the fish?"
Bohemia was startled when she heard this, and subconsciously glanced at the former guard. The latter huddled his shoulders and smiled, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"I didn't expect you to be useful." Before answering Lin Sanjiu, she sincerely praised the former guard, and then turned her head: "At that time, I found that the handrail of the stairs had reached the end, and I felt that the stairs should be reaching the end soon.
. He told me that he hoped I could let a light fish go back and quickly swim around the back stairway... I asked him why at that time, and he said that if there were anyone following, maybe they would
I would think that I had been discovered, so I would stop and take a look at the situation, to deter potential threats. Oh, by the way, you didn’t say anything at that time, and I was a little surprised, because you always have something to say.”
...Who is the one who always has something to say between the two of them?
Lin Sanjiu glanced at Bohemia, who continued without realizing it: "I didn't expect that this guy's suggestion actually helped you. You know, I was reluctant at the time, because
I - Oh, you remember what I said, my fish are not unlimited, right? Before reaching the hall, the light stored in two fish was used up, and there were only two fish left for lighting. One less would not be enough.
Is it darker?”
"There are only two left?" Lin Sanjiu thought for a while and suddenly understood, "In other words, the light is getting darker and darker on your way from the stairs to the hall?"
She seemed to understand where the thin man got the idea from - it had to be said that even though that man was on the verge of madness, his mind was moving fast enough. He almost caused them to do this just by acting on the spot and improvising on the spot.
The group of people fell in. She looked at the puppet master and sighed: "... Did you feel that everything was dark as soon as you entered the hall?"
After two seconds, the puppet master said "hmm".
A look of surprise flashed across the faces of Bohemia and the former guard, but no one dared to say "Oh!".
Lin Sanjiu rubbed her temples and could clearly replay the scene in her mind: without her presence, the two of them would not even be able to breathe in front of the puppet master. When they found that there was light in the hall,
Even if they were beaten to death, they would not think of chatting with the puppeteer like "Hey, there is finally a light here."
The light was getting darker and darker along the way, until it was suddenly completely dark when entering the hall. It was really hard to think that the problem was actually with my eyes - to be honest, even if the hall was originally dark, it was not unreasonable;
When I think about it, the scene where the puppet master asks in an approachable manner, "Have you run out of light fish?" is even weirder.
If this move goes wrong, I wonder what the thin man will do next?
"You...didn't you think of bringing out the lamp at that time?" Lin Sanjiu raised her head and asked.
This time the puppet master was very sarcastic: "It's amazing, you can actually think of turning on the light when there is no light. How long did you think about it before you had this epiphany?"
Lin Sanjiu was choked by him, and when he couldn't find anything to say, he suddenly smiled: "...Lifting the lamp has always been a puppet's job. Since you are so wise and insightful, next time I will ask this woman to hold the lamp for me.
.”
Bohemia's look was as if someone had suddenly hollowed out her core.
If it has always been the puppet's job to hold up the lamp, then the lamp should also be on the puppet's body... No wonder he saw the light getting darker and darker along the way and did not take out the lighting props. Lin Sanjiu stood up and put Percy
Mia pulled her behind her and shook her head: "That won't work."
The puppet master's irritability at that moment could turn into reality and drown them out - fortunately, he immediately turned his head away, as if he was afraid that his eyes would bleed if he looked at her for too long.
When the elevator slowly rose, there was not even a single number on the screen, only an upward arrow that was constantly refreshing. After staying in silence for a while, Lin Sanjiu tried to lighten the atmosphere and said, "Come to think of it, I just can't figure it out.
, why can’t I feel that the door has been pushed open... Could it be that he has been in the stairway for a long time? "
"Impossible," Bohemia stood behind her for a while, and her courage recovered a little: "I walk in front, and I am always afraid that there is something hidden in the dark ahead, so I am always careful."
The man was so thin that it made people feel panicked. If he pressed his back against the wall, covered his body with illusion, and walked sideways from Bohemia... No, then he would have to pass the doll.
Lin Sanjiu thought of this and felt that he had hit a dead end again. Even if his ability was activated so that others could not detect it, the thin man did not have the ability to walk past the puppet master without being discovered. He could hide.
It's one thing to stand still in the corner of the elevator, but it's another thing entirely to pass by him.
"The great witch said you were stupid." The puppet master, who had been looking at the elevator arrow, suddenly said without looking back.
"Oh...ah?"
"...You found out too late," he seemed to be talking to the great witch in his mind, but he said in a voice: "Having her dry is a complete collection of stupid words."
Lin Sanjiu could almost complete the conversation automatically. She suppressed her anger and asked, "What did the great witch say?"
"Say you are stupid."
"No! Apart from this, what else did she say?"
The puppeteer, who had his back turned to her, happily stopped talking.
...She didn't believe she couldn't figure it out on her own.
Now it is basically impossible to expect the puppet master to pass on the message; Lin Sanjiu simply replayed the entire process of pinching her consciousness line. Everything is very simple and clear: every time she goes up a step, she will
The width of the "line" of consciousness decreases and the length increases, until this consciousness can no longer grow, she adds a second consciousness. She is always cautious enough, even if a body is found in Bohemia
, after the entire team stopped, when she squeezed to the front of the team, she did not forget to keep pulling the thread——
"Ah!" Lin Sanjiu's mind lit up and she shouted.
"The toilet is flushed." The puppet master commented.
Ignoring him, Lin Sanjiu slapped her forehead and sighed to Bohemia: "So that's it!"
"What?" The latter was not very interested: "It's really because of you, right?"
"When I squeezed to the front of the line, I lengthened the length of my consciousness accordingly. When I finished checking the body and returned to the end of the line, I did not reduce the length of my consciousness. For example, if
This is a loop of rope that I put down while walking, but at this time it hung down because it was too long..."
"I understand," Bohemia interrupted her with a wave of her hand: "I know more about consciousness than you do, so you don't need to use analogies!"
Lin Sanjiu finally figured it out, but she couldn't finish her words, so she couldn't help but feel a little unfinished.
The "rope" of consciousness that should have been holding the door tightly at all times will become too long after the owner has increased the length and returned a certain distance. Because the distance between three people has been increased, the length of the slack hanging down will be less.
It was also nearly ten meters away; at this time, if the door of the stairway was pushed open a crack, she would naturally not feel any shock in her consciousness. This explanation made her feel itchy in her heart, but she looked at it.
Look, she found that the only former guard who could be her audience was staring at his own pendant in trance, and he seemed to be equally uninterested in her theory.
"The great witch said," the puppeteer said slowly, "your consciousness sensitivity is as dull as a hemp rope."
"Who told her to use her consciousness as a brick?" Bohemia didn't know whether to agree or explain, "As the toughness goes up, the sensitivity goes down."
Lin Sanjiu only listened to half of this discussion about her consciousness absent-mindedly, and the other half was blown away like wind in her ears. She found herself glancing at the former guard again and again - self-defense reminder
After he fell in love with her, she paid a lot of attention to him, but he was always honest and didn't do anything he shouldn't have done. He even helped them a few times.
However, at this moment, she suddenly felt strongly about Wei Xing's feeling: This person's mental state was probably not quite right.
With a "ding" sound, the elevator stopped.
The former guard raised his head, with a smile that couldn't be suppressed: "We can finally get out!"
