I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 9: Yanan Apartments (8)

"What's your expression?" Lin Yuan glanced at Sun Jiu and raised his eyebrows, "You don't think I want to jump off the building, do you?"

Sun Jiu's right eyelid twitched. It was true.

An intuition arose, and Sun Jiu suddenly realized that Lin Yuan might not be a bad person, but simply sick, with a sick brain.

Lin Yuan: "You guessed right, I really want to jump."

Sun Jiu closed his eyes and rested his back against the door. He nodded and said, "Just do what you want to do... Wait, what did you say?"

She widened her eyes and saw Lin Yuan's mouth curled up. He rolled down from the windowsill and said lightly, "You're kidding."

Lin Yuan walked to Sun Jiu and closed the door considerately.

Then he wandered around the bedroom aimlessly, took the flashlight on the desk and put it in his pocket, and finally gave up when he saw a familiar wooden cabinet.

"Safety cabinets. There is one in every room on the third floor. They appear randomly on the first and second floors."

Sun Jiu next to her moved her lips and wanted to add something, but Lin Yuan had already turned his back to her, stood up, went into the cupboard, and closed the door.

Sun Jiu's mouth twitched: "..." So what is there to talk about with her?

In the cabinet, Lin Yuan stretched out his hands and measured the width of the cabinet with his arms, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

From the outside, the safe looks like it is more than enough to accommodate two people, but once you enter the interior, you will find that.

The actual volume inside can only accommodate one person.

The two boys were in 301, she and Sun Jiu were in 302, and the remaining two were in 303. If there was danger at night, with two people in a single room, who could grab the locker?

Realizing the malicious intent of the game, Lin Yuan no longer had a trace of smile on his face.

She does like to make things messy, but that doesn't mean she can tolerate others making her life messy.

In short, she plays games.

--Can.

Game to play with her?

--roll.

Coming out of the wooden cabinet, Lin Yuan looked up and saw Sun Jiu lying on the only big bed in the bedroom with his eyes closed and resting.

Lin Yuanzhuang said casually: "The safe can only hold one person."

Sun Jiu, who had closed his eyes, opened them with bloodshot eyes. He was dazed and exhausted. "I'm so sleepy. Let me rest first. Everything should be over when the dawn comes tomorrow."

For some reason, her eyelids began to droop ever since she entered the bedroom, and she felt unbearably sleepy.

Sun Jiu forced himself to stay conscious and look at Lin Yuan, only to find that he was full of energy, without a trace of fatigue, as if he would never get tired.

Lin Yuan exhaled, lying on the other side of the bed, using his hands as pillows, and corrected, "The countdown has returned to zero. Dawn will come only after the game is over."

The two of them lay on their respective sides of the bed, each with different thoughts in their minds.

Lin Yuan couldn't sleep and was counting sheep out of boredom.

Sun Jiu pried open his heavy eyelids, held his head in pain with both hands, and muttered.

"No, I can't sleep. If I sleep at this critical moment, I really don't know how I will die."

Her consciousness fell into a daze and she didn't know how long it had been. When Sun Jiu woke up again, she saw Lin Yuan grabbing her shoulders with one hand and shaking her violently, while pointing to the door with the other hand.

"Hey, don't sleep."

Lin Yuan put his index finger close to his lips and made a hushing gesture.

Sun Jiu subconsciously held his breath and concentrated, and sure enough, he heard rustling sounds coming from the corridor outside the door.

"You go and check it out." Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows and glanced towards the door.

Sun Jiu didn't say much, as if he was used to the other party's orders. He immediately got out of bed and walked towards the door, with his hands pressed tightly against the door panel, and listened to the movement outside the door with his head tilted.

The rustling noise just now disappeared, replaced by two alternating footsteps.

One of them was wearing leather shoes, which made a dull sound when stepping on the ground.

The footsteps were getting farther and farther away, and had already left the third floor. Suddenly, a thumping sound echoed throughout the corridor, and gradually faded away with a sharp cry.

Sun Jiu's expression perked up, and he didn't know where his sleepiness had flown away. He immediately reported: "Zhao Cheng Li Gang from 301 has gone out!"

She looked frightened: "Something is chasing us."

Lin Yuan raised his eyelids and hummed softly.

Sun Jiu was puzzled and said, "When I was exploring during the day, I was tricked by those invisible things. At night, they are more rampant than during the day. Why did those two people choose to go out now?"

Lin Yuan smiled, speculating maliciously: "Why can't Zhao Cheng have other purposes?"

Sun Jiu didn't dare to agree and just sighed.

When she was about to get up and leave the door, there was another sound outside.

No, not outside.

A premonition of danger jumped into his mind. Sun Jiu endured the discomfort and continued to stick to the door panel, trying to listen to the sound more carefully.

"Row—"

It was like the fingernails of two hands were deeply inserted into the door, and they instinctively scratched downwards. The sound of wood chips breaking caused by the friction was creepy.

The sharp nails kept scratching at the wooden door; the sound was getting closer and clearer, as if they were trying to dig a hole in the door.

A hoarse laugh came from the other side of the door.

"what!"

Sun Jiu was so frightened that he fell to the ground and asked in shock, "What is that?"

"I usually call this unscientific existence a dog--no, a ghost."

Lin Yuan stood up, lifted the quilt, tore off the bed sheet, and knitted something quickly in his hands: "That thing wants to get in."

After the rope was woven, Lin Yuan pulled it hard to test its strength.

Sun Jiu was stunned: "You really don't have to jump off the building, we have a safe..."

"The cabinet can only hold one person. I reminded you." Lin Yuan sneered and fixed the rope to the window sill. "If you want to hide, hide. Anyway, I was going downstairs anyway. I didn't want to stay here."

She wanted to go downstairs, not by the stairs, but by the window.

Sun Jiu felt that his usually sharp brain was rusty and it was very difficult to move: "Uh, why are you..."

Before they finished asking the question, the ghost hand changed from scratching to hammering, and a heavy thumping sound drilled into the ears of the two men.

Lin Yuan and Sun Jiu both looked unhappy.

Sun Jiu thought, yes, there are monsters in the corridor outside the door, so if I go out the door I will just be walking into their faces, won’t I?

She looked at Lin Yuan with a painful look on her face.

The window was opened and the night wind was howling.

Lin Yuan lowered the rope and began to climb down, his movements rough but skillful.

Sun Jiu guessed that she didn't want to run away, but had other purposes.

The floor below 302 is 202...

It was the room where the couple found the diary during the day!

Thinking of the word "incomplete" in the diary, Sun Jiu suddenly realized, but unfortunately she couldn't help. She could only watch Lin Yuan's actions in fear and pray silently that everything would go well for him.

Suddenly, Sun Jiu leaned over to the window. Lin Yuan, who was descending, suddenly felt his brows jump. He quietly loosened the rope with one hand, preparing to quickly grab other fulcrums if he fell.

But what was expected did not happen.

Sun Jiu just stood there, took a deep breath, and said:
"I wish you peace."

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes, and said sullenly: "Hmm."
