Paintings of Terror

"Is it back?" Mu Yiran took the phone that Ke Xun handed back and called up the album.

"Did you take that half-inch photo in the toilet?" Zhu Haowen looked at Ke Xun.

"I don't know if you have ever played games like escape rooms," Ke Xun patted Zhu Haowen on the shoulder. Suddenly he thought of something, took a pause, and then put it down very naturally. The rule is that all seemingly useless or small and inconspicuous things may be the key to customs clearance, so I think even if it is half a photo thrown in a toilet pit, it is best not to put it. Ever."

Zhu Haowen looked down at his hand, then cast his gaze on Mu Yiran's phone screen.

What is displayed on the screen is the photo taken by Ke Xun, and the dirty part beside the half of the photo has been treated with mosaic very intimately.

The photo is half an ordinary-looking man. Because it took too long and was photocopied, his age is not visible, but he will not be very old, because his hair is dense and fluffy, his eyebrows are straight, and the corners of his lips are still shallow. Smile.

"Hao Wen'er, cell phone." Ke Xun said.

Zhu Haowen immediately understood his intention, took out his mobile phone, turned on the camera, and then the three of them compared the two mobile phones, looking for faces similar to the half of the photo in these gray figures.

I have looked at every face carefully-this is really an uncomfortable process. The faces of these gray and white shadows look more terrifying for a long time, because while you are looking at them, they are also looking at you. Just look at you with those deadly sluggish eyes that have lost all the feelings and vividness that humans should have.

"These people are probably all experimental subjects who have undergone prefrontal lobectomy and failed." Zhu Haowen said coldly.

"But remember, one test product succeeded and entered the second phase of testing." Ke Xun looked at Mu Yiran.

Mu Yiran nodded: "Experiment 282."

Ke Xun: "There is no him in these figures, and the number on their clothes is not 282."

Zhu Haowen: "Will it be outside, such as in other test rooms, or in the corridor, or even on it?"

Ke Xun: "Don't let go of the slightest possibility, let others help find it together."

Ke Xun asked everyone to retake the half of the photo with their mobile phones, and then searched the entire institute.

Time is waiting for no one, and the sky is getting darker.

Everyone didn't care about eating for dinner, and still couldn't find all the gray and white shadows before 11 o'clock in the evening.

Mu Yiran and Ke Xun went to Laboratory B, fainted Wei Dong before returning to Laboratory D.

The three people sat side by side in the corner, like every night in the picture, waiting for death.

"This is probably the most unsure of us?" Ke Xun broke the difficult silence, trying to make his tone sound calm or even relaxed, "It seems that there is no way to avoid it, right?"

Mu Yiran didn't speak, but felt the heat from the person beside him in the dark.

This man figured out a way to avoid death for all his friends, but he couldn't think of one for himself.

"Do you think Huang Pi and Qi Qiang are a bit weird?" Zhu Haowen said suddenly.

"Although Qi Qiang is fierce, he is a **** at best," Ke Xun said. "It is the yellow skin that is really difficult to deal with. He is on the road, and he is really tough."

"Why do these two people go to a place like an art gallery?" Zhu Haowen questioned.

"I presume that Qi Qiang went in to steal things," Ke Xun said, "but it certainly wasn't about stealing paintings. It might be aimed at the phone or bag of the spectator. But why the yellow skin was there? I don't know. ."

Zhu Haowen didn’t ask any more, but went on to say: “I think the two strange things about them are that Huang Pi suddenly proposed to draw lots today to get the number. Secondly, the two people got the number of C laboratory. There is no dissatisfaction after the card. This is not in line with the style of these two people. I think they will at least forcefully switch to the previous order to get the numbers. After all, Laboratory B is currently the safest."

"You said that, it's true that these two people are a bit weird," Ke Xun said. "When Qi Qiang drew the C card at that time, I remembered that he was mad and threw the card on the ground. Then I didn't know why. There was a sound, and I went to the C laboratory honestly just now. Could it be that I was bewitched by something like the last picture?"

"No." Mu Yiran answered, with a cold voice, "I think Huangpi's preferred number card is not originally B laboratory. People like him are very vigilant and defensive, absolutely It is impossible to trust anyone to faint him, so Lab B has never been where he wants to go.

"The C laboratory is his ultimate goal, especially when he sees that Zhang Hanrui, who has become a vegetable, is also assigned the C card, which is even more in his arms."

Ke Xun frowned: "You mean, during the experiment in Laboratory C, Huang Pi wanted to be with Zhang Hanrui. Zhang Hanrui can no longer move. If the power is turned on, it must be his Huang Pi who let go first. There is a 100% chance of survival."

"Obviously this is his goal." Mu Yiran coldly, "The order of the draw this time should be exactly what he intended, so he didn't take the initiative to say anything afterwards. If he draws the top lotter or At the last sign, I think he is likely to show his strong true colors and force a change of order with others."

Ke Xun cursed in a low voice.

"As for Qi Qiang," Mu Yiran continued, "As a person of the same kind as Huangpi, I guessed Huangpi's intentions earlier than us, and after seeing Xu Zhen who was also drawn to Laboratory C, He also has confidence.

"As a result, the physiological reaction speed of women is a little slower than that of men-of course, the group of Zhang Hanrui and Deng Guang is an exception;

"Secondly, Qi Qiang makes a living by stealing. The pickpocket's hand speed is what they rely on. Even if Xu Zhen's physical function is at its peak, I am afraid it will not be faster than Qi Qiang's hand speed.

"After figuring this out, Qi Qiang happily accepted the C card."

Ke Xun was silent for a moment before speaking, "In that case, Huang Pi and Qi Qiang will survive tomorrow in Laboratory C."

"If there is no accident, it should be so." Mu Yiran said.

Ke Xun did not speak, not knowing what he was thinking in the dark. After a while, he suddenly lit his flashlight and illuminated it to the wall on the right: "I saw someone writing a sentence in blood on that wall, guess what. ?"

Mu Yiran sat on his right hand. He turned his head and looked at him. But Ke Xun raised his hand suddenly and slashed it on the back of Mu Yiran's neck. Mu Yiran suddenly leaned forward and fell down. Xun extended his arms in time to meet him.

He gently rubbed the place where Mu Yiran had been chopped on the back of his neck, and then let him lean against the wall.

"Why are you doing this?" Zhu Haowen's voice came from behind.

Ke Xun turned his head to look at him: "Remember, Dr. Qin said that during the prefrontal lobectomy, the patient will be kept awake, because the doctor will inform the patient of the next operation steps."

"So you stunned Mu Yiran, so that when those'things' are experimenting, the first choice for experimentation will not be him." Zhu Haowen looked at Ke Xun with a complicated look.

"Bingo. Do you want to come too," Ke Xun gave him a harmless smile, "You are welcome, just call me a red scarf."

"But Dr. Qin also said that if the patient doesn't respond, the doctor will wake people up with electric shocks," said Zhu Haowen.

"The premise is that they use a conscious patient to perform the operation. After the operation causes the patient to coma, the electric shock will be used instead of selecting a comatose patient for the operation. Zhang Hanrui is an exception. She woke up halfway. Ke Xun said, "Look at those who use animals for experiments, don't you always pick animals that are alive and at least movable? When have you ever seen animals that are as dizzy as dead?"

"But if all three of us fainted," Zhu Haowen said, "what if they always pick one person to do the experiment."

"Hao Wen'er, you and Dongzi fainted when you were in Lab B, and you didn't see those'researchers' awakened to do the experiment again," Ke Xun's eyes looked like two pairs under the faint light of the flashlight. The star of Xia Ye, "I would rather take a gamble. This D laboratory may have the same rules. Believe me or not?"

Zhu Haowen looked into his eyes, after a long while, he said in a low voice, "I believe you. But what about you, you can't stun yourself."

"Of course I can't," Ke Xun squeezed his eyes at him, "I'm only telling you, the big shepherd's technique of choking his neck to cause people to faint, I have asked Dr. Qin privately about the principle and learned it."

Speaking, he pressed his hand somewhere on his neck: "As long as you hold it here, people will pass out in a while. I can find something to hold against me and press myself out."

"You find the right thing first." Zhu Haowen looked at him blankly.

Ke Xun got up, moved a chair over, took the mop behind the door, stepped on the mop head, only carried the handle of the stick, inserted the handle into the gap in the back of the chair for support and fixation, and finally took off the T-shirt and wrapped it. The head of the stick handle pushed his neck up, felt it, and made an OK gesture at Zhu Haowen.

Zhu Haowen was a little speechless: "Are you sure this stick won't kill you directly?"

Ke Xun laughed: "Being a pitman is my small job. Don't worry, I hold the angle of my body and the strength of the force. Once I lose consciousness, my body will definitely tilt to the side without hurting me. neck."

Zhu Haowen watched his smile become silent again, and after a long time, he said calmly: "Don't cut my neck, use it."

Ke Xun rubbed his thumb: "It just happens to let you see the new method I learned. To be on the safe side, let me give a last word first. It's best to attach a payment password or something to a treasure."

Zhu Haowen: "..."

"Come on, it's dawn until dawn." Ke Xun stretched his fingers and pressed his neck, "Good night."

In this calm and warm ordinary greeting, Zhu Haowen plunged into the darkness of insensitivity.

Ke Xun placed him next to Mu Yiran, and leaned him against the wall, then stood up and turned around in the room.

He couldn't be sure whether Syncope Dafa could successfully escape the death selection in Laboratory D. If not, no matter how many of the three of them would survive tomorrow or none of them, he didn't want to let himself be killed in vain.

Regarding death, he has experienced the horror he felt when he first entered the painting, and he has experienced the calmness he is now. From the beginning, he could only rely on Mu Yiran completely, and now he can fight hand in hand with him, even on his own.

He was unafraid of life and death, but he did not want to obey fate.

Even if he is going to die tonight, he cannot be empty-handed. Maybe Mu Yiran and Zhu Haowen can survive, but if not, there is still Wei Dong. Therefore, he cannot die in vain.

Ke Xun stood in the middle of the room, looking down and thinking.

Suddenly, there was a flash of inspiration in my mind, and I hurried to the desk, pulled out a large roll of transparent tape from the drawer, and found a ruler pen and a plastic folder, etc., cut with scissors, and then wrapped it with tape. Department, made a simple and rough mobile phone holder.

Finally, they took out their mobile phones from Mu Yiran and Zhu Haowen’s pockets. Ke Xun had asked about their screen unlocking passwords beforehand. He first marked Zhu Haowen’s screen, brought up the camera, and turned on the lighting function. , Try to look around.

The light of the lighting was too dim, and only one or two meters in front of him could be seen. Ke Xun turned on all the flashlights and shone them on the desk and laboratory equipment.

Looking at it this way, the light is barely suitable and the visible range is slightly larger. Ke Xun fixed the mobile phone holder in a place where the desk and laboratory equipment could be photographed.
