Mystery Makes Me Strong

"Now all we need is Brother Wang Tao's equipment." Number One said to Wensheng.

"It seems your equipment is on the third floor or the second floor." Number Two said worriedly.

"Let's look for it on the fourth and fifth floors, so as not to take the risk of going to the second and third floors and not finding it again." Pang Li said worriedly.

"Yeah, maybe we missed it." Lu Jia also said.

Soon they were searching on the fourth and fifth floors.

The result was nothing.

They had to make a difficult decision:

Should I continue to guard the fourth floor, or open the door and risk being attacked by wolf-dog monsters to search the third and second floors?

This is a problem.

Everyone looked at Vincent.

Number Three couldn't help but said, "Now only you, Lao Wang, don't have your own weapon. You should go by yourself."

Others did not voice any objection.

Vincent was not surprised by this.

Although from the video it can be seen that in the final battle, the absence of any one person would lead to failure.

However, when faced with short-term risks, people still subconsciously tend to "whoever is responsible should do it", and no one is willing to take risks for other people's responsibilities.

Even though they knew clearly that once Wensheng was finished, they would be finished too.

Vincent was not pretentious about this.

That's human nature.

Vincent smiled faintly: "Okay, then I'll go by myself."

"You guys stay upstairs and keep watch."

Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief.

Pang Li was a little embarrassed, but didn't say anything.

The others looked as if it was a matter of course.

This kind of rule-based game, with its infinite copy, can easily lead to a vicious circle of moral kidnapping.

In fact, it’s all just for survival. You should control your own destiny and don’t blame others.

The moral rules of the outside society cannot be applied in such places.

Just like you cannot use the morals of modern society to restrain and judge people during the Great Famine in ancient times.

When Vincent arrived at the big iron gate at the junction of the fourth and third floors, the moonlight was already filling the corridor.

The others followed behind him at a distance.

They were not looking after his safety, but locking the door as soon as he left...

At this moment, the shadows were half bright and half gray, which actually added a bit of fear.

Suddenly a ballad came from below.

"The moon is bright, my heart is in a panic, when the moon rises, everyone dies..."

After the eerie and terrifying ballad was heard, everyone only smelled puffs of smoke in their noses.

"Where is the fire?" Lu Jia asked in surprise.

"No, this should be the smoke coming from the second floor of the dormitory!"

"There are new changes now." Number One frowned.

He felt a little regretful and thought that he shouldn't have let "Wang Tao" go alone to find weapons.

This ballad seems to be a bad omen.

But he couldn't bring himself to say anything that would let others take the risk.

This is unfair to others.

"It's strange. Why did the dormitory college atmosphere that was originally for studying and doing homework suddenly change into this terrifying atmosphere?" Number Two said distressedly.

"That's naturally because there is a huge mystery behind this dormitory building." Vincent said.

"There is a story hidden behind it. We need to risk our lives to find it. If we can't find the story, I think it will be difficult for us to survive the seventh day and complete the three tasks."

Number Three sneered, "You said so much just to share the risk among us."

"Hmph, speaking of this, I told you about the Morse code in the dormitory before. Speaking of risk sharing, it's as if my inability to find weapons has nothing to do with you. If that's the case, I can only say that the possibility of such a fragile makeshift team making it through the level alive is extremely slim." Wensheng was naturally not a soft persimmon and responded directly.

If you are too soft, others will subconsciously choose you as cannon fodder at critical moments.

This is a very serious matter.

Number Three was speechless for a moment.

Number One came out to smooth things over and said, "Alright, alright, stop arguing. I'll go with you to the second and first floors to look for weapons."

Vincent looked at No. 1 with a bit of surprise.

Number One, like Number Two and Number Three, all have the characteristics of an elite middle-aged man: smart, sophisticated, selfish, good at speaking, and will not offend others unless it comes to the critical moment.

"Okay then." Vincent did not refuse.

Although the song continues to be sung, they still have to take action immediately.

Otherwise, hunger alone would make them powerless to resist.

When the wolf-dog monster appears, they will surely be dead.

Because food is only available in the administrator's office on the first floor.

These people had not expected the appearance of the wolf-dog monster, so they did not carry much food with them.

When these people let Vincent go down alone, they didn't even think about food.

Do you really think you can survive by hiding on the fourth floor?

Then the two of them came to the big iron gate between the third and fourth floors, and Vincent quietly opened the locked door.

The big iron door is on the inside and is fastened with one of those old-fashioned iron bolts. You just have to push it open.

No additional keys are required.

In fact, this detail allows Vincent to infer a lot.

No need for locks, probably because using locks in the past led to terrible things...

Ordinary schools will be locked to prevent unsafe conditions.

The two listened carefully to the movements around them.

If it was that wolfdog, it should have jumped out by now.

After listening for a while, Vincent found that there was no additional movement.

He wasn't actually worried about the appearance of wolfhounds.

Because when he looked towards the third floor, the information prompter had already prompted:

【This is a safe floor. 】

Then the two of them walked all the way there by themselves, and Lu Jia came to the third floor, where he finally found one magic wand after another, which made him feel very funny. Are you mentally retarded?

No, I am a jerk, now it is his turn to be a retard, Master

A question that I didn't know had a lot of special evidence.

He quickly opened the door and went to the third floor.

Number One followed him fearfully, ready to escape at any moment.

They found the staff easily.

It's not that difficult.

It was in a dormitory near the entrance of the corridor. After entering, I found it was placed on one of the beds.

"It seems that this weapon appeared together with the video. It's a bit like a game. After triggering a certain plot, certain mission items will appear immediately." No. 1 sighed.

"This is just a game," Vincent reminded.

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot!" Number One found himself really stupid.

"Okay, now we have weapons, we can attack that monster wolfhound."

Then the two returned to the fourth floor.

They found that the door to the fourth floor had been locked.

So he knocked on the door.

"The weapon has been found, come out quickly." No. 1 said directly.

Then a voice came from above:

"Go and kill that wolfdog. Anyway, you two are outside. If you don't kill the wolfdog, you will be killed by it." Lu Jia's voice came.

"What bullshit are you talking about? In the video, it takes seven people working together to kill the guy!" Number One was furious.

He simply couldn't understand what was in the other party's mind to come up with such an idea.

"Number Two, Number Three, do you agree with him?"

There was no response.

Number One felt cold-hearted.

"I really didn't expect you to be so stupid. I was so stupid. I thought the story of the cow and the wolf in the textbook was fake, but it turned out to be true!" Number One said angrily.

"Do you think the wolfhounds won't kill you after they killed the two of us? Don't forget that you have no food. How many days can you endure on the fourth floor?"

Vincent, however, remained calm.

He already knew the nature of these people.

It's nothing more than wanting to escape risk and let others bear it.

But they forgot about the food.

However, there was no response from the fourth floor, so it seemed that they were planning to stay there.

This is the reality.

Vincent smiled in his heart.

Even if they can see all this clearly, they still want others to bear the risk.

They were probably hoping that the two of them could destroy the wolf-dog monster, or at least, greatly weaken it.

That way, they can pick up bargains.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Okay, let's go to the dormitory management office first." Vincent said to No. 1.

Number One kicked the big iron gate hard, forgetting that this kick might attract the wolfhounds early.

"Damn! What a bunch of idiots!" He was very angry.

How can you be so short-sighted?

Then the two of them came to the dormitory management office.

Fortunately, I found that there was no one inside and no wolf-dog monsters.

"It seems that guy is hiding somewhere else."

Number One clutched his hunter outfit.

The two then started searching the dormitory management office.

Vincent discovered that a page of the calendar on the wall had been torn off.

He looked over carefully.

[Calendar: The missing page says that today is the day to set a fire and put an end to everything.]

What does this mean?

Combining the information obtained previously, Vincent had a guess.

There was a big fire in this dormitory building that year.

And it was arson.

After thinking about this, he understood.

No wonder such serious curses and dark things happened in this dormitory building.

Number One sighed, he found nothing.

The two of them searched carefully in the management office again.

They groped around and finally found something strange in a corner of the wall.

There was a cabinet there, seemingly empty.

But after moving the cabinet away, I found there was still space behind it.

That's a shelf.

There are some food and medicine on the shelf.

And a diary.

Number One felt like he had found a treasure.

He actually felt something was wrong a long time ago.

"Wang Tao, have you noticed that whatever we are looking for will appear somewhere?" he said while reading the diary.

"It's like someone is controlling us from behind."

"Yes, someone is indeed watching us." Vincent nodded.

Vincent also looked at the diary.

He now realized where the real danger came from.

And he also realized how to break the deadlock.

As of now, there is enough information.

"No. 1: Orange ignored me, and she treated me like a licker again. One day."

"No. 2: Damn it, she's talking to other boys again, and they're laughing and chatting."

"No. 3: Damn it!"

"No. 4: My heart hurts so much, I can't tolerate her looking at other men!"

Seeing this, Vincent has found out part of the truth about the dormitory fire.

It seems that the administrator fell in love with one of the girls, and because of love turned into hate, he decided to destroy the other party...

Afterwards, after they finished reading the diary, they went to the study room.

They found a stack of newspapers on the bookshelf.

As they were leafing through the newspaper, they heard the sound of Morse code again.

"I see."

By translating the code, the two finally pieced together the truth of the whole story.

"It can be hidden in this place. Under normal circumstances, who would read this newspaper?" Number One sighed.

The translated content is as follows:

"There is an administrator here."

"He fell in love with a girl in the dormitory."

"Because girls are very loving and kind to him."

“It gave him a false impression.”

"The administrator took in a wolf-dog."

"It used to be a stray dog, and everyone in the dormitory hated it."

"Only the girl liked it very much and fed it regularly every day. This gave the administrator a further illusion that the girl came to feed the dog for him."

Haha, feel good about yourself.

This is the habit of most middle school boys, Vincent thought, shaking his head.

However, one day the girl found someone she liked and often went out with that person.

She also forgot to feed the wolfhounds.

And this administrator was very angry.

His jealousy grew stronger day by day.

Finally one day, he decided to set fire to the entire dormitory building and kill everyone in it.

In order to prevent the girl from escaping, he locked the large iron door between the fourth and third floors at night.

He even asked his wolfhound to fetch a pile of firewood.

Finally a big fire broke out.

In order to escape, the girl on the fourth floor had to jump off the building.

As a result, many people fell to their deaths.

"Well, it seems that the tall girl jumping off the building and dying is the game's way of using this symbolism to explain the truth."

"Huh, so this is how it is. How ridiculous." Number One said disdainfully.

When the two were about to leave, suddenly, they heard a strange sound coming from the study room.

That was the sound of someone turning pages of a book.

But they couldn't see anyone else.

How can there be the sound of turning pages if no one is reading?

"This is another code." Number One said with a little fear.

The two then translated again.

A truer truth emerges.

There was a boy in the dormitory who was a bootlicker. Because he couldn't lick anyone, he set fire to the girls' dormitory floor.

The administrator loved the girl deeply, so he braved the fire to open the door.

In the end, he was burned to death, but the girl was saved.

The wolfdog was also burned to death and turned into a monster, and it wanted to take revenge on the boys.

"Which story is true?" asked Head No. 1.

"Without accurate evidence, we can only investigate together." Vincent shook his head.

The two then continued their investigation.

The wolfhound did not appear throughout the night.

This provides them with a good investigation environment.

It seems that the wolf-dog monster also wants the truth to be exposed to the world.

It also doesn't want the story to remain silent.
