Girls’ Dormitory Escape

Chapter 63: Road trip notes

    “Zi…Zi…”

    The car was speeding on the highway, and the wind was passing by the window.

    The radio blared.

    In the beginning, there was only FM noise in it, and then small pieces of music began to appear, and Tang Xinjue just let it play in it.

    Innumerable pieces of information are spinning rapidly in her mind, colliding and splicing together.

    The expression of the faceless child, the strange behavior of the restaurant owner, the tingling and ominous premonition in the brain... All kinds of clues cleared the fog and revealed a vague outline.

    Tang Xinjue finally found the source of all the strangeness—

    From the beginning, what she saw, knew and felt was wrong.

    Recalling, opening her eyes in the convertible car, the preconceived environment made her think this was the beginning of the exam: the roommates were scattered everywhere, and she was alone in the car.

    But what if...this isn't a real opening at all?

    Through the rear-view mirror, Tang Xinjue looked at the interior of the convertible from a new angle, the main and co-pilot and the back seat, just seated four people.

    Perhaps, the truth has been clear from the beginning: this test is not a single start at all, but should be four people in a convertible!

    This is the normal configuration for ordinary college students to go on a "road trip" together.

    And why she didn't know anything about it, and why couldn't she find the other three... Tang Xinjue tapped the steering wheel, and a word came to mind.

    Weekly cycle.

     Stepping on the brakes and stopping on the side of the road, Tang Xinjue closed his eyes, and his perception overflowed.

    She has no relevant memory, but once the frame is determined, she can still gradually infer what has happened by understanding herself and her roommate.

    Blank knowledge of the sea, and gradually outline a picture.

    The first week is also the first, and the crew should be complete.

    After seeing the mission of Grandma Mayas, the four of them kept the gift box properly, and Tang Xinjue took the driving seat to drive on the road.

    A few steps from the initial point, there is a small coffee shop, the NPC gave them coffee that could be reimbursed, and then rudely made four lines on the menu.

    Continue to drive, it is a highway fast food restaurant, there is a boss with a strange smile and a little boy with no facial features, giving them meals that can also be reimbursed. The restaurant owner should not have made any aggressive moves, but his cold and sticky eyes had been hovering over several people... unwilling to stay for a long time, several people hurried on the road and soon reached the gas station.

    Did the accident happen at the gas station?

    Tang Xinjue opened her eyes, looked at the foggy road ahead, and crossed out this branch.

    No, they probably left the gas station successfully, and even drove all the way to the end of the road, trying to find the home of Grandma Mayas.

    And then something happened.

    The mission failed to complete successfully, and the copy was restarted—or rather, they returned to the starting point of the road. Only this time, it changed from four to three.

    I also woke up in a daze, thinking that the exam had just begun, and I hurried on the road. I encountered a coffee shop, a fast food restaurant, a gas station... No one knew where the missing roommate went.

    Tang Xinjue felt that Er Zhoumu should have realized something, so they gave Guo Guo's watch to the innocent faceless kid in the restaurant. Of course, the marks they left should be far more than that.

    But when the third week came, the mark disappeared along with Guo Guo.

    The fewer people there are, the more dangerous the road is for them. The restaurateur who shoots them at the second or third week, the unknown gas station, and the unavoidable failure in the end.

    Like the kid's gestures, the four people in the dormitory were silently erased one by one...until the fourth week, which is now.

    On this road trip, only Tang Xinjue was left.

    The only traces of the roommate's existence were ten messy pencil scratches on the cafe menu, the watch in the kid's pocket, and the tingling pain in Tang Xinjue's mind.

    She finally realized where the pain came from—

    Danger Summoner.

    Before the exam, she and Zhang You bought a dangerous summoner. Once Zhang You was in a dangerous environment, the summoner would automatically send her a signal. The greater the danger, the stronger the signal.

    There is no chance to test before entering the examination room. When the danger is high to a certain level, what will happen to the signal, and there is no need to test again in the future.

    Tang Xinjue took out a hand to hold the temple.

    Signals turn into stinging pains in her mind, always warning her of danger.

    But at the same time, this signal also conveys a message…

    Zhang You is still alive!

    "Zizz..."

    The time is approaching five o'clock, and the sky is gradually covered with a layer of inconspicuous darkness, indicating that dusk is coming.

    The radio finally turned into a chaotic signal flow after the long and hoarse music, as if trying to reunite into something.

    Tang Xinjue now feels that the contract is really effective, and may have judged that the "friendship" she gave Wu Shi was not worth a few cents, so she repaired the radio into this half-dead appearance.

    So far, the biggest use is to destroy her ears.

    [Appraisal: This is a not-so-smart car radio, but occasionally provides a bit of useful information, may depend on your luck]

    Listening to the intermittent noise of the radio, Tang Xinjue keenly found that the fog at the end of her line of sight didn't seem to be as much as at the beginning.

    The road finally seems to have changed a little in the long, unchanging stretch.

    Mental power throbbing in the sea of ​​consciousness is not a good premonition.

    Slowing down the speed of the car, Tang Xinjue held her breath, all the information in her mind was turning around all the time, dismantling to find a way to break the game.

    The worst possibility, this time still fails, she becomes the last person to disappear, and Zhoumu will never restart.

    They will forever lose the opportunity to clear the customs directly from the road, and may even be trapped in this dungeon forever.

    …However, there is too little information.

    Even if you know the rules of Zhoumu reincarnation, if you want to break the game, there is still one important point of information missing: the reason for triggering the failure mechanism.

    In the game, there are two possibilities to reach the Be ending: one is not following the established path, and the other is completely following the established path.

    The former is to make a mistake and get out of the game, as long as you follow the steps without triggering the error point, you can pass the customs safely.

    The latter is much trickier.

    Tang Xinjue stared at the front of the road from a distance. In the golden light that gradually spread in the evening, the road became narrower and narrower. The convertible also couldn't change lanes any more and had to continue along the center of the road.

    Even though she has not reached the end, she already has a hunch.

    The danger of this copy should be the latter.

    Following the established path, even if you walk on thin ice and do nothing, you will also die. Because of its existence itself, that is, it executes the procedure of failure, allowing them to slip into an irreversible abyss unknowingly.

    Only by finding a unique exit, can you break the shackles of reincarnation and find the mission target named "Grandma Mayas' house".

    But this is a straight road with no turning back. There was no bifurcation point that slanted out, not even giving her a chance to choose.

    etc.

    Tang Xinjue suddenly tightened her hands, and there seemed to be a logical line in her mind that she thought was a dead end, revealing an answer she had never thought of before.

    No, she had a choice.

    That choice opportunity even appeared in front of her very clearly, if it was really related to it, if there was only one last possibility...

    If this guess is correct, then she still has a chance!

    

    At this time, the radio finally hummed, and the current converged into an intelligible broadcast sound.

    "In order to promote the development of out-of-city road tourism... In order to increase students' interest in out-of-city travel and improve safety... We will advise as follows, which are hereby summarized as "Road Travel Instructions", which are required for all universities Courses are set according to the level of difficulty of the university…”

    "Next is the road trip details"

    The radio is still flickering, and only a few words can be successfully delivered.

    "Please make sure to bring enough food to ensure a stable physical strength during the trip..."

    "Please prepare enough university coins, download the map, confirm the location of the road building... In order to protect students' eyesight, the buildings have been painted green. Please don't litter..."

    This time the radio was turbulent for a long time, and finally the last sentence came out:

    “…Please find the correct entrance and exit of the road in advance to ensure smooth access. If you find the wrong starting point, it is likely to fall into an endless loop. Recently, the education center has found many cases of lost students on the road, and is investigating ."

    The turbulence disappeared, the radio beeped softly, and silence returned.

    At the same time, the car finally drove out from the rough and narrow road, and as the road became gentle, the scene ahead came into view.

    At the end of the line of sight, a small green coffee house is quietly standing there.

    The familiar man in the kitchen hat seemed to be sticking to the window, showing an indistinct smile.

    This road is a closed loop with no exit!

    Tang Xinjue stepped on the brakes, but the car did not stop, and continued to drive forward at a constant speed. By this time, everything seemed to be beyond her control, and the machine would only follow the already designed end of death to the end.

    Tang Xinjue left the steering wheel with both hands, and it was meaningless to control the convertible at this time. Glass rises from all sides and the canopy becomes closed, blocking the possibility of students leaving.

    That's why it fails every week, when the people in the car finally realize what's wrong, it's too late.

    Is it too late...?

    In the last few seconds, Tang Xinjue did not close her eyes, but pulled out a white vial from her pocket at a hand speed so fast that she could not see clearly, and poured the pills into her mouth in one go.

    For her, there is no 100% "too late" possibility, because there are three variables of probability.

     Regret Medicine!

      ]

    [Of course, it can only find nodes that match your memory]

    There are three red pills in the regret pill bottle.

    They enter the esophagus, the first, the second, the third…

    The third moment of swallowing, before the convertible completely rushed into the familiar road, the surrounding scene suddenly changed—

    A convertible, parked quietly under the sign that reads [Outside the City Highway].

    Not far in front of it, is a green coffee shop that is open for business. Through the narrow business window, the man in the kitchen hat saw the girl in the car wake up, looked around subconsciously, and got out of the car to confirm the broken cliff behind.

    He showed a weird smile, put down the blocking rod, prepared a cup of steaming coffee, stretched out his hand and shook it up and down.

    However, the next second, the girl returned to the car, but the convertible did not continue to move forward.

    Tang Xinjue quietly watched everything in front of her, the foggy road, the exaggerated smile on the face of the man in the kitchen hat, and the already destined journey.

    She drove to the front, took the cup of coffee, and drank it.

    The man in the kitchen hat smiled: "I wish you a good trip."

    Tang Xinjue also nodded, then put down the reverse gear, and the convertible began to slowly back up.

    Man in kitchen hat: ? ? ?

    In line of sight, the face of the man in the kitchen hat changed from stiffness to consternation, and finally his entire face was stuck to the window.

    The cold mist surged from the rear, and the writing on the coffee paper cup also changed in the mist:

    [It all ends here]

    From beginning to end, this is both the beginning and the end.

    The exit they are looking for is right here.

    Tang Xinjue stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the whole car jumped into the cliff!

    The author has something to say:  Exam: regret it, unfortunately there is no regret medicine in the world~

    Tang Xinjue: Thank you, I have it.
