Classic revival of infinite games

Chapter 14 2.3 The Mystery of Day and Night
Dark figures gathered and approached, and the group of figures silently held their tools.

They seem to be waiting for a signal to attack at any time.

Ye Man's slingshot was also aimed at the window.

Uncle Wang's slingshot is very well-made. It doesn't need to be pulled by humans. It just needs to move a mechanism like a trigger, and the "ammunition" can be ejected instantly.

There is a small piece of post-it light inside the slingshot, the film is torn off, and the side that can be pasted faces downstairs.

The entire post-it light is the size of an A4 paper. Ye Man cut off a small corner with the small scissors in his backpack, and then slid the light silently to adjust to the maximum brightness.

At the moment when the figures gathered under the house, the Post-It Note lamp shot out like an arrow from the string.

In a blink of an eye, the post-it lamp was attached to a short tree beside the square outside the garden.

In an instant, it burst into dazzling white light.

All the shadows receded outward almost reflexively.

The tadpole shadow left the area directly, and the passerby shadows also walked to the other direction of the square.

A few shadows with obvious professional characteristics took a few steps back when the light came on, but they stopped quickly and surrounded them again.

I saw the long, sharp shovel of the baker's shadow draw an arc in the air, skipping the shadow of the dwarf tree, the solid branches made a crisp sound in an instant, all broke and fell to the ground one after another.Including that glowing branch.

"Oh!"

The muscular blacksmith shadow swung the big hammer high, and hit the shadow of the branch with a hammer, making a loud noise.

The light disappeared in an instant, leaving only the smashed branches in a pit on the ground and the corner of the broken post-it lamp.

It takes only 2 minutes from light on to disappear.

These professional shadows gathered together again, and they collectively looked at Otto's house.

And this Otto's hut, which was shining with white light before, but suddenly darkened, is finally filled with dim light like other people's houses at this moment.

The shadows stopped in place, looked suspiciously for a while, and finally left slowly to continue doing their own things.

Holding his breath by the window and wearing a black cloak, Ye Man finally let out a breath.

While drawing Shadow to attack with a slingshot and post-it lamp, she reached for the lamp and found the switch.

She flicked the switch, and the desk lamp changed to a dim yellow light.She picked up the black coat and put it on herself.

It is also exactly 2 minutes before and after.

The city went on running again, and the shoemaker went back to the customer, bowed and apologized, and went back to polishing the shoes.

The baker's guests gradually dwindled. The tall and thin baker went out of his house, visited the blacksmith and the tailor respectively, and went to the square to chat with the shoemaker and his guests.

The dim light and the turmoil just now made Ye Man feel extremely tired.

She looked at it, and unconsciously sat by the window and fell asleep.

Ye Man seldom has such a deep sleep, but what is different from the usual deep sleep is that the time in the sleep does not pass quickly, but she feels that she is deeply trapped in the quagmire-like darkness, unable to break free, like a black sticky The stagnant space forcibly restrained her.

And when she woke up again, she could already see the morning light.

The shadows of tadpoles all over the square disappeared, and so did the people.All street lamps and table lamps were extinguished.It was as if that night of horror was just a dream.

But if you look closely, you can see the strange and flowing shadows of the building.

She turned around and the clock was exactly nine o'clock.

The white rose in the bottle seemed to be a little wilted, and a petal fell on the table.

Ye Man felt that the white rose on the table was inexplicably familiar. She seemed to have read it in a novel, but it was hard to remember.

Just as she was pondering her memories, the phone rang, and the deep voice of the monster came from inside.

"How are you lately? Maybe you don't remember me, but I miss you so much, especially at this time of the day, every time I have a drink, I think of you. Especially [Zhilazila - electric sound] After disappearing, my heart has nowhere to rest.

"Today, I heard that your apartment was on fire. A few of us came to check it together, and it turned out that the small tree next to it was on fire. Baker and Schmidt put out the fire together.

"If your apartment is really on fire, I can convince them to come in and take a look at it, although it will be more complicated. After all, I miss you very much and want to protect what you left behind."

The phone hangs up.

During this period, Ye Manyou tried to interrupt or interfere with the other party, such as tapping the receiver with his hand, or moving the receiver away from himself, and speaking loudly, but the other party seemed to be unable to hear him, so he just continued to babble on his own. Hang up immediately.

After hanging up, there was still an empty and quiet voice.

"The so-called telephone generally has dialing and receiving functions..." Ye Man analyzed, "Receiving is the daily signal, so what is it sending out?"

She looked at the bare number dial that had been unplugged: "The dial dial is destroyed, and it is impossible to talk and communicate with the person on the other end of the phone. Then what can be sent, may be the key word.""

"This phone may be the game's search engine."

She decided to give it a try, and she now has a keyword that she most wants to try.

"Keywords: plague." She whispered into the receiver that echoed empty.

The tadpole-shaped black shadows all over the ground last night, although they couldn't be seen clearly, should be hinting at something.Combined with the information on the phone call "the strange disease we have here" and the architectural style of the Middle Ages in Western Europe, it is not difficult to speculate that this refers to the plague.

The black tadpoles crawling around in the square are actually the shadows of mice dragging their slender tails.

Sure enough, not long after, a clear female voice like a translation software came from inside, and said without emotion: "The search for scientific and technological words was successful. The following will randomly unlock the phone for you to leave a message on a certain day."

"How are you? Maybe you don't remember me, but I miss you so much...

"Today I somehow remembered the plague we had experienced. [Zi la zi la—the sound of electric current] was bitten by a mouse. I stood by her bed and watched her as a wilting flower Flowers, he first had high fever and vomiting, and then his skin continued to turn black. This blackening seemed endless, and finally he turned into black charcoal.

"Soon I had a high fever too. The whole town started to have a high fever, throw up, and go black. It's just that after all that, it didn't go away. We survived. It's just that we couldn't go out at night because every day Every night is a full moon. The old man in the town said that if you go out on a full moon night, you will encounter werewolves.

"And during the day when there are six suns, we can still live as before. I joined the guard team in our town. Originally, I wanted to earn more money, but it's a pity... But I firmly believe that he is still alive!"
