Xu Ying stared at him blankly.

Xiao Li continued: "You know the truth, then what?"

Xu Ying didn't speak, she already understood what the other party meant--even if she already knew the truth here, but the mission was still not completed, and the so-called ghost game had not yet begun.

Xu Ying’s excited heart was poured with a basin of cold water, and it was completely cool. She pulled aside the hair that had been stuck to her cheek because she was on the road, quickly adjusted her mind, and changed her tone: "You are right. , The truth does not mean anything. You are also a smart person and we can work together. In order to show my sincerity, I can tell you the truth I know first."

Next, she told her speculation about the orphanage, just like Xiao Li thought.

The orphanage in the daytime is what it once was, a trace of obsolescence in the years, but at night, it is real.

Zhu Fei sponsored the orphanage, but secretly used it to do some illegal deeds. They took the orphans they fancy to the counseling room to examine them, secretly conduct experiments, and if there are good-looking or suitable matching, they use it to adopt In the name of "taken away from the orphanage, to the rich mansion, or to the hospital."

The information in the counseling room, marked with a triangle mark, is suitable and will be taken to the corresponding black market for processing after being discharged from the hospital, while the ticked ones are regarded as playthings by the rich.

Under Zhu Fei's long-term manipulation, an industry chain has been formed underground in this Fengcheng Orphanage, which has brought him huge benefits-until the return of the wronged soul.

Those ghosts made the orphanage into another hell.

"It's just that until now, there has been no ghost game mentioned in Mission 2." Xu Ying looked at Xiao Li, thinking of what the other party had said before, and guessed, "You said you were playing backgammon with a ghost. Is it a ghost game? Let us go out and take risks alone?"

Xiao Li shook his head: "If that counts, I have returned to reality."

"Yes, the task will not be so simple." Xu Ying said disappointedly, "Do you have any thoughts about this?"

Xiao Li raised a finger and spit out a syllable from his lips: "Wait."

The first day they came in, it can be said that it was calm. The second day there was a psychological consultation room. The task could not drag them past the fifth day. Then tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, there will be a wave of murder.

Xu Ying wanted to say something more, but Xiao Li walked out of the reading room without looking back.

There is no signal on the mobile phone, and there is no way to play games. Xiao Li just wants to rest early.

This night is destined to be unrest. The selected part of the reincarnations killed many people in the hands of ghosts, and the part that escaped was also taken away by the monsters in the gray mist, and could be safely returned to the dormitory. There are not many doors in the room-even so, they have to endure the extraordinary movement in the house after nightfall.

Many people stayed up almost all night and fell asleep until the light came up and everything returned to normal.

However, they would not expect that on the third day, the so-called ghost game kicked off.

After nightfall on the third day, a voice rang to everyone: "Today, let's play a game, let's play together."

"Let's play... hide-and-seek, okay? I can count for three hundred seconds. You can hide anywhere, and I will find you one by one-those who are caught by me will stay with me, OK?"

This voice was cold and immature, with hoarseness that couldn't be explained. Xiao Li heard it all at once. It sounded a lot like the voice of the boy in the reading room—just a lot more cold.

At that moment, the boundless fog became dense and even floated into the room, rendering everything into the colors of despair and fear.

This is destined to be a time-consuming game, because the ghost did not specify the end time, that is, until the five-day mission deadline, and this is almost an unfinished mission.

On the playground of the orphanage, in the boundless fog, there was a small figure standing there. He blindfolded his eyes and counted out loudly: "One, two, three..."

The reincarnations in the dormitory became commotion, some fled out in a panic, some quickly ran to the place they thought of, and in the last room on the first floor, the little fat man was opening the closet in panic, trying to hide Go in.

Xiao Li stood aside and looked at him for a while, until the fat man completely hid his fertile body in the cabinet, even if his body was stained with the inaudible blood on the wall, he did not waver, Xiao Li said: " Are you hiding here?"

The little fat man stretched out his hand to close the door, and solemnly said: "Youdao is the most dangerous place is the safest place. This is the dormitory and the place where the CG of the film is located. It is very conspicuous and very safe! Last time, I just stayed where I was, but the ghost didn’t come back to where I was, and came back to life like this!"

When Sun Ang said this, he hesitated: "Do you...Do you want to come in together?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the doll that had been lying in Xiao Li's pocket with only one head exposed. Those horrible eyes are still surrounding him in his midnight nightmare.The little fat man scolded himself for being so kind, and immediately shook his head: "Forget it, I can't squeeze here anymore, ha ha.

Xiao Li: "..."

He closed the closet door to Sun Ang expressionlessly and walked out of the dormitory by himself.

hide and seek……

Can anyone hide and seek with ghosts?

Moreover, the time is still so long. Human beings always have to eat, drink and sleep. When the "ghost" ghost stands in an invincible position, plus the need to win from "hide and seek", how can we win?How can I not be caught by ghosts?

Dormitory, psychological consultation room, toy room, canteen, reading room...

These places flashed in front of Xiao Li's eyes, but were crossed out again. He always felt that he had missed something, but he couldn't remember it.

Xiao Li stopped and thought for a while, but in the end he didn't settle down, and only walked towards the building.

In this situation, Xiao Huangben has worked tirelessly: [Hide-and-seek is not fun, if you want, we can play more fun.

[Such as playing in bed.

[I think it can.

But Xiao Li didn't think so.

The dark-haired child didn't pause at all. He walked lightly in the dark, like a smart cat.

"Fifty-six, fifty-seven, fifty-eight..."

The number in the ghost’s mouth on the playground keeps increasing, echoing in the empty courtyard, an invisible force amplifies its voice, and it spreads to everyone’s ears, and they are more anxious to find their own hiding Place.

In the boundless panic and fear, some people chose to hide in the toilet cubicle, some chose to stuff themselves into a small cabinet, some chose the corner of the quiet room—

"...Two hundred and ninety-eight, two hundred and ninety-nine, three hundred."

When the count reached three hundred, the little figure on the playground put down the hand covering his eyes, turned and swooped toward the building.

——

In the utility room of the main building, there is a small box hidden under a pile of blood-stained clothing, covered with dust.

Inside this box, a person was squeezed.

His hands and feet were curled together, and the whole person bowed into an almost impossible arc.Because of this twisted posture, he felt a faint pain in the curved part, like a needle stick, and this pain increased with the passage of time, but he did not dare to come out or move.

Just bear it for a while, bear it for a while, hide in such a place, no matter how good the sharp ghost's eyes are, he will definitely not be found.

This person thought so, breathing slowly, enduring the sting.

With the passage of time, he seemed to hear some movement, finely divided, but not really, which made him suddenly nervous.

It won't be discovered, it definitely won't, it's just a trace of wind, or someone else's passing by.

However, what Tian didn't want was that the movement of the clothing friction was getting closer and closer to him, it seemed to be... entering this room.

But after entering this room, there was no more movement.

The person in the box stayed quietly for a while, until he couldn't hold on anymore, and wanted to open the box to get some air. However, he just squeezed himself out of the box with great effort. When he looked up, he saw the one on the box. Pale face.

It belonged to a child, and it looked at the person coming out of the box like this: "I caught you, you lost."

The same thing happened in the cafeteria in a moment.

There was a reincarnation who chose to hide in the soup bucket in the cooking place behind the canteen. The iron bucket was large, and he was small, so he could perfectly hide in and hide himself without suffering.

At the very beginning, he was somewhat proud of his choice, but soon, he heard a loud noise——

Someone knocked down the iron bucket he was hiding in, hit the place, and made a loud noise.

He was lying on the ground, before he could crawl out of the iron bucket, he saw the nightmare face: "You lost."

——

On the other side, near the toilet on a certain floor, there was a child with pimples on his face, panting desperately, cold sweat falling down his face.

If the muscular man is not dead, then he must recognize that this is the one who pushed him to the ghost.

The man with acne was accompanied by a person, his partner in action. They were hiding near the utility room, but after hearing the screams from the utility room, they moved their positions.

But they didn't shake off the footsteps behind them as they wanted. The ghost followed them not far away, playing with them like a cat catching a mouse.

Can't go on like this-

The acne man stretched out a hand to grab the person next to him, and relentlessly pushed him to the ghost behind him in his surprised gaze, and he turned frantically around the corner with that resistance.

Don't blame him, the boy with acne thought to himself, he is too stupid to try to form a team in this world.

The ghost caught the reincarnation who fell towards him: "You lost."

The acne man took the opportunity to get rid of the ghost. He ran a long way before slowly stopping to breathe with his knees: "It seems that this method is quite useful. I have to find another ghost to be by my side... …"

He sorted his clothes and walked back to the stairs.

Perhaps it was his luck. He saw an unfamiliar figure in the corridor in front of the stairs. He immediately rushed up and said to the figure: "You are also looking for a place to hide, are we together? I know a good place."

That figure is Xiao Li.

Xiao Li turned slightly to one side, avoiding the hand that the other party wanted to catch, and shook his head.

"In this place, we must help together, this little brother, don't be so cold." The acne man persuaded him with a smile.

His smile made Xiao Li feel sick for no reason, he said coldly: "Go away."

"You--" The man with acne wanted to say something more, but he heard the frightening footsteps coming from behind him again. His eyes were red, and he had no time to take care of others. He stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Li's arm, wanting to repeat the trick. .

His speed was so fast that Xiao Li didn't react for a while, but the doll in his pocket reacted extremely quickly. She stretched out a hand - after the small arm got out of the pocket, Turning into Tan Li's life size, he directly grabbed the acne man by the neck and threw him in the direction of the sound of footsteps.

Xiao Li didn't stop, he thoughtfully stroked the little head of the doll in his pocket, and walked around the ghost from the front.

He didn't want to meet that ghost yet—before he thought of a solution.

Hide and seek, orphanage.

What is he neglected?

Different from other people who want to find a place to hide, Xiao Li walked in the corridors imperiously, passing by door after door-when he passed by the counseling room, his footsteps paused, his eyes Moved away from the closed door quickly.

If Xiao Li were forced to choose a place to hide, he would also choose a counseling room.

There is no other reason, this is where the children are checked.

If the ghosts raging here are really the souls of orphans, then they may be afraid of the initial counseling room.

Just like Xu Ying who chose to hide inside at this time, she was squatting under the chair behind the screen, trying her best to reduce her sense of existence, listening to the slightest movement outside the door with her breath.

When the footsteps outside the door stopped, Xu Ying only felt that her internal organs were twisted together.

——But this is not Xiao Li's destination. What he wants to go to is the toy room to see if the invisible ghosts that have been there are still there.

He passed by the counseling room, and went on to the door of the toy room.

Inside, as always, toys were piled up, but the teddy bear was gone.

Xiao Li tried to yell a few times, but there was no movement.

So to say--

Is it playing a big game hide and seek?

In the game of hide and seek, ghosts are ghosts, and the rule is that they cannot be caught by ghosts. People are humans. People need to avoid ghosts. Once caught, they lose. If you want to win, you can only hide successfully...

hide.

Passive hiding is mission 1 of the reincarnations. You must survive for a week. Then there must be a corresponding mission 2. The other side that can be won is the opposite of hiding—active attack?

Switch people and ghosts in the same place, why can't people be ghosts?

The game can be changed.

According to the rules, the two sides are equal.

Just before the ghost catches itself, propose to change the rules, let people be "ghosts", and then catch the ghost-you can win.

Xiao Li curled his lips and muttered to himself in the mirror in the toy room: "Next, let's go find it."

In the empty building, it is not easy to find ghosts—in fact, it is not easy, but Xiao Li picked out a screaming chicken from the pile of toys in the toy room.

Screaming chicken is not good, but making noise is first-class.

So on this quiet night, Xiao Li rubbed the "ahhhhh" screaming chicken and walked back along the path, leaving deep shadows and doubts on the reincarnations hiding around...

After the fifth effort of Screaming Chicken, Xiao Li saw a corner of the shadow in front of him-he threw the Screaming Chicken in his hand, and immediately said: "Wait a minute, I ask to change roles, I will be a ghost, you Come be a man, I'll catch you."

The action of the ghost on the opposite side suddenly stopped in mid-air, and did not directly catch Xiao Li.

At that moment, Xiao Li knew that his speculation was correct.

Xiao Li continued: "I count three sounds, three, two, one--"

In that ghost's surprised gaze, Xiao Li closed his eyes and quickly finished counting, then rushed to hold its wrist: "I caught you."

There was a smile in the pupils of the black-haired child. It was the light of another world. He said again: "I won."

The ghost that was grabbed by his arm looked straight at him. It hadn't touched human body temperature for a long time, and some pictures flashed through its eyes without white eyes.

At that moment, Xiao Li only felt that he had fallen into a long memory segment, and he had a glimpse of some of the ghost's past.

That was a very gloomy and introverted little boy. His name was Zhou Ying and he lived here when he was very young.He always keeps a long pot lid bangs, and people cringe, so he doesn't have many friends. There are only two children who are willing to play with him. One of them is Ni Ke.

Zhou Ying doesn’t have a strong sense of existence. Except for occasional beatings by educators, those adults selectively ignore him. He likes to read books and always quietly find a corner to read. Therefore, he found I found some clues-those who were adopted have never returned.

And one time under the window of the counseling room, he held his book and lowered his head, and heard crying and struggling inside.

At that time, the little girl inside was crying and struggling: "Let me go, sir, it hurts me."

He broke in, was thrown out by Teacher Wang and put him in confinement. After three days of food, he almost starved to death.

The news that Zhou Ying had made a big mistake was announced. Others alienated him even more. They never brought him when playing games. Zhou Ying was very young. Although he loved reading, he also loved playing, but no one played with him. Up.

Only Ni Ke and another child, Qian San, were still willing to contact him, but the fate was always absurd, and then it was Ni Ke's turn.

Zhou Ying tried to tell the other party the truth, but Ni Ke didn't believe it. She happily followed the teacher and there was no more news.

And because Zhou Ying knew about this, she was always regarded as an insecure by the senior management. During a fire drill, she was locked in the toy room by Teacher Wang as an excuse. No one came to rescue him. He was just in hunger and poverty. Become a ghost and return for revenge.

Xiao Huangben once again appeared in the air, a thin golden thread wrapped around Zhou Ying, and a photo of a little boy appeared on the cover alongside Tan Li.

[Samsara Xiao Li completed the original task two, evaluation level S, task completion rate 80%, successfully rubbed the ghost Zhouying, and obtained 1000 surviving coins.

Scene switching.

[3, 2, 1——]

I can too.

[Why don't you find me.

[A bit... jealous.

Xiao Huangben put away the golden light and ghosts, and disappeared in place with Xiao Li's figure.

No one knows that in the dean's room of the orphanage, a figure sits on the sofa in time.

The man's gaze penetrated the building and saw the scene in the building directly. He played with his slender fingers, his lips curled up a faint arc, but his smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

——This person is still so popular.

Only one copy, and one more.

This is actually a good thing, but-the blood in his bones is cold after all, he not only wants him, but also wants to monopolize him.

In a icy interior, something is ready to emerge.

The author has something to say: Tan Li: I take up the left pocket and the big boss on the right. You can do it yourself.

Zhou Ying: ... (suddenly shaking)
