After the Little Crybaby Enters the Nightmare Cycle

Because the problem was too tricky, Ye Chang was dumbfounded.

Chi Nan turned his head, staring at his fleeting bewilderment, waiting for his answer.

But in half a second, Ye Chang recovered his calmness and smiled bitterly: "Myopia is too high, and taking off my glasses is almost like a blind man. It will be very insecure, so I don't like to pick it even when I sleep."

He deliberately emphasized the word blind.

"I heard Black Tea say that you couldn't see with your eyes before, is that true?" Ye Chang changed the subject and asked.

Chi Nan was stunned. He didn't expect Black Tea to talk to Ye Chang privately. He only said lightly, "Well, I changed my eyes in a nightmare."

Ye Chang raised his eyelids just now, and took a deep look at Chi Nan: "Very unique, very suitable for you."

Chi Nan: "...Thank you."

Just as Chi Nan wanted to turn his head and continue to make up for his sleep, Ye Chang suddenly said, "Wait a minute, here..."

As he said, he stretched out his hand and pressed it to the corner of Chi Nan's eye, "There is an eyelash that almost fell into your eye."

Undoubtedly, after being touched by him in this way, Chi Nan's eyes ooze tears.

Chi Nan hurriedly turned his head and wiped tears.

Instead, Ye Chang was stunned for a moment, and looked sorry and at a loss, and then withdrew his hand for a moment: "Sorry, I forgot that you can't be touched casually."

"Um...remember next time." Chi Nan was a little helpless with this boy who was always quietly doing his hands.

Ye Chang nodded apologetically, and then said for a moment: "However, I think it's normal to have tears."

Chi Nan glanced at him strangely, but did not speak.

In his cognition, tears in the eyes of boys in the human world are by no means a well-acceptable thing.

Although he didn't know the reason behind it, it was the case.

"I mean, if you want to shed tears when you are in front of me in the future, don't hesitate," he smiled, then closed his eyes, "sleeping, sleepy."

No opportunity for Chi Nan to refute at all.

Chi Nan: "..."

He was too lazy to speculate on people's thoughts, closed his eyes, turned his head and fell asleep.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Black Tea knocked on the door for the first time: "Chi Nan! Ye Chang! Are you all right."

Chi Nan woke up slowly, still rubbing his eyes, Ye Chang answered first: "It's all right, don't worry."

The black tea outside the door let out a heavy sigh, and finally let go of the heart that had been raised all night.

Chi Nan opened the door and noticed that the black tea under his eyes became thicker, and it seemed that he didn't fall asleep last night.

In contrast, Chi Nan's sleepy-eyed appearance is very enviable. The moment Black Tea saw him, his tight nerves instantly relaxed.

"Did something happen last night?" Chi Nan asked.

Black Tea shook his head: "I haven't seen it yet, it should be—"

He didn't finish a word. Several of the waiters on the boat suddenly appeared in the corridor. They were in unison and looked stiff, and even their facial features were so similar that they were vague.

They carried the white body frame and knocked on the door of 307...

The corpse on the corpse carrier had been burned to the point where the facial features could not be recognized, leaving only the vague and recognizable human form.

The panicked middle-aged man walked out of 307 with the stretcher.

The moment he saw Chi Nan and Hei Cha, he was a little surprised at how they could retreat from the punishment room, then looked in the direction of the stretcher, and shook his head with a heavy expression: "No one is gone, self-burning. ."

Living with him in 307 was the young man from the community who told the story of Mahjong on the first night, named Guo Xuan.

According to the description of the middle-aged man, he has been tossing about in bed and can't fall asleep, and he talks to Guo Xuan in a different way to alleviate their terror and anxiety.

"It was about 3:30. Guo Xuan should be too sleepy. He went to sleep after talking. I still couldn't fall asleep, so I turned my back and closed my eyes and calmed my mind."

"At four o'clock, I heard the crackling sound coming from the bed next to... and opened my eyes... saw..." The middle-aged man swallowed hard, his temples were wet with cold sweat, "My bed is facing the mirror. Guo Xuan, who was lying on the bed in the mirror, started to burn..."

He is not a newcomer, and is much calmer than Weiwei who faced death yesterday: "I immediately rushed to the bathroom to collect water, and poured buckets on Guo Xuan's body, but it was completely useless..."

"He was running around the house like a fireball, but it is strange that the fire on his body was so big, but there was no way to ignite the room, and the water couldn't extinguish the fire on him..."

"It's as if he and the fire that burned him... have merged into one..."

The middle-aged boy carefully recalled what happened last night, and everyone listened in silence.

At this moment, there were only seven living people standing in the banquet hall. Everyone noticed that the twin sisters and the couple who changed rooms without authorization did not come out of the room.

In this nightmare world, except for people like Chi Nan who cannot feel the fear, no one will be too nervous to sleep in the room after the prescribed time. There is often only one reason for not showing up...

Encountered an accident.

"Shall we knock on the doors of 310 and 301?" the redhead suggested.

"Let's go."

A group of people first came to the door 310 where the couple lived, and Black Tea knocked on the door: "Weiwei? Brother He? Are you okay?"

For a long time, no one responded.

Everyone had some unexpected regrets on their faces, and the big wave was silent for a moment and said: "The probability is gone."

Black Tea: "Let's confirm it first, what if there is still salvation?"

Even after experiencing a death copy, Black Tea is still in awe of life like a newcomer.

"I'll smash the door." Hei Cha took a step back and was about to kick his leg towards the door. Chi Nan immediately stopped him.

"Need not."

"what?"

Chi Nan looked at the waiter standing at the end of the corridor: "Excuse me, can you help us open the door of 310?"

The waiter nodded stiffly: "No problem, please wait a moment."

With that, he walked towards 310 with the key.

Dark tea: "...oh."

After half a minute, the door opened.

The setting sun slanted all over the room, and the folds of one of the quilts on the bed indicated that someone had actually slept in it last night.

But there was no one in the room, only the sound of lingering water came from the bathroom.

As if someone forgot to turn off the water, the water in the bathtub overflowed...

Chi Nan looked in the direction of the bathroom, a large pool of water stains behind the concealed door.

Suddenly, everyone had guesses in their hearts.

Yesterday, Ayu, who was among the triplets, was soaked in the bathroom. They will never die until they go to the bathroom to take a bath. There is only one possibility for movement...

Ye Chang and Black Tea were the first to walk into the bathroom, followed by Chi Nan.

The moment the door opened, everyone gasped.

The water in the bathtub was full, and the white tiles were covered with water. There seemed to be a lot of black and long hair floating in the water, tangled and entangled in the rays of blood-red sunset light.

But in the bathtub that can only accommodate one person, there are two bodies floating in them. They are like twin babies still in their mother's belly, their limbs are tightly wound, and they float up and down in the liquid environment.

It was the little couple...both drowned in the bathtub, as if they had died in love.

"It seems that the consequence of changing rooms in violation of the rules is to repeat the death of the last tenant." Big Wave turned his face and looked out the window, irritably taking out his cigarette and biting his mouth. "So these little lovers are... troublesome, originally. One of them can survive, now..."

She shrugged and lowered her head to hide the sadness in her eyes.

"Let's go, go to 301 again."

The atmosphere is depressed and gloomy, and no one wants to stare at the lover's corpse soaking in the bathtub for a long time.

Hei Cha made a prayer gesture, Chi Nan lowered his eyes, only Ye Chang's sight was hidden behind the reflective lens, and he couldn't see what he was thinking at the moment.

The crowd just left 301, and the white stretcher carrying the corpse was already waiting outside. The waiter smiled when they saw them coming out and bowed politely: "Guests, good morning."

Everyone: "..."

"Thank you, please help me open the door of 301 again," Chi Nan said.

The waiter nodded respectfully: "Okay sir, please wait a moment."

The middle-aged man suddenly said: "In fact, there is no need to be polite to these waiters, and they have no emotional thoughts. They are just a bunch of data-built NPCs and will only do things in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the dream maker."

"I know, so I think they are very hard. Maybe they can't even sleep." Chi Nan replied.

Middle-aged male: "..."

The group of people quickly came to door 301. Just as the waiter took out the key to open the door, there was a click inside the house, the door lock twisted counterclockwise, and everyone was nervous to hold their breath for a moment.

‘Kaka Kaka—' The lock inside the door seemed to be stuck and couldn’t be opened.

Because he wasn't sure whether it was a person or something else that twisted the lock, no one dared to act rashly.

"Who is inside?" Big Wave asked.

The action of ‘Ka Ka Ka’ twisting the doorknob became more violent, followed by a ‘bang bang banging door’.

"Are they Axue and Aqing?" Everyone outside the door tried to confirm with the person who opened the door.

Except for the dull iron rubbing sound of twisting the door handle and the sound of clapping the door, no one spoke.

"Open the door." Chi Nan looked at the waiter.

The middle-aged man was anxious: "But, but how do you know what is behind the door?"

"We should be able to handle everything." Ye Chang answered.

The middle-aged man looked at the waiter who had inserted the key in the hole in a panic: "Don't open it, I will let you...!"

But the waiter turned a deaf ear to him, or he didn't like the guests who were rude to him before and now yell at him.

With a ‘click’, the door opened.

The ponytailed Aqing among the triplets rushed out, and when she saw everyone in the corridor looked surprised, her legs softened and she fell directly to the ground.

The big wave looked cold-hearted. At this time, his hands and feet were fast, and he hugged the little girl without making her fall hard: "What's the matter?"

Aqing trembled all over, but I don’t know if it was because of the fright or something. She seemed to be unable to make a sound. She stalked her neck and pointed her red eyes to the inside of the guest room. Her lips moved silently, as if she was saying a name—

Axue.

The moment everyone rushed into the room, there were no people in the room either, only the radio on the bedside table was looping the weird nursery rhymes of hide-and-seek.

"Where are you? Where are you? Don't hide, I hear your breath, hear your heartbeat, are you hiding in the closet again? The smell of your blood is close at hand, and I'm about to find you. "

Following the singing, everyone looked at the huge wooden wardrobe in the corner of the guest room...

Boom, boom, boom.

Something seemed to be knocking on the hidden cabinet door rhythmically.

Creepy music coupled with weird percussive sounds can easily defeat people's psychological defenses.

What is hiding in the cabinet...?

More terrifying than the real is the uncontrolled and spreading imagination...

Even the few old dreamers who are experienced in death are a little bit embarrassed at this moment, with white hair floating on their bodies.

"What should we do? Shall we..."

The red-haired man didn’t finish a sentence, but the sound of the music stopped. Everyone turned their heads. It turned out that Chi Nanshun turned off the radio...

Chi Nan said calmly under many surprised eyes: "Sorry, I don't like this kind of music very much."

Ye Chang seemed to smile slightly.

Everyone: "..."

The atmosphere of horror faded a lot.

"Then who... go and open the closet to check it?" The middle-aged man looked tentatively at the crowd, standing far away by himself, without going forward to find out.

As soon as Chi Nan took a step forward, the originally concealed cabinet door suddenly made a ‘creak creak’ sound, because the sound of the nursery rhyme stopped, the sound became particularly abrupt.

Everyone who was a little relaxed became nervous again, and the scene in the cabinet was gradually exposed to the red light of the setting sun...

Axue with short hair hangs in the closet like a marionette.

The pink cloth hanging around her neck kept spinning, and her body swayed back and forth, as if swinging on a swing, hitting the cabinet door with the toes of the red leather shoes, regularly and restrained.

The radio that had been turned off rang again, and the melody repeated over and over again: Don't hide, I hear your breathing, hear your heartbeat, have you hid in the closet again?

The only newcomer with short hair and Tie T covering his mouth, rushed to the trash can next to him and vomited.

Although Axue hanged in the closet was not bloody, the treacherous scene made people extremely uncomfortable.

Everyone recalled yesterday A Qing said that the triplets sisters hide and seek in the dream... Axue was really taken away.

There was no sound. A Qing knelt and sat outside the door. Seeing the scene inside the room, she suddenly cried silently. The big wave walked over and covered her eyes with a tissue.

"Don't look, hey."

In the banquet hall, there were four more corpses.

Among the remaining eight living people, the only pure newcomers were Ye Chang, Tie T with short hair, and A Qing who was in a coma again.

"Dear everybody, because more and more guests choose to stay on the Dusk forever, so please hurry up and make wise choices as soon as possible for the remaining guests," the old captain looked at the depressed people with vigor. "Because of the sharp decline in the number of people, tonight's story meeting, please prepare two stories for each guest. Thank you for your cooperation."

Everyone's heart to scold his mother was gone, and the captain's sharp eyes turned to Chi Nan and Ye Chang: "Especially these two guests, please be prepared in advance."

Ye Chang smiled politely: "Please clean up the "special room" in advance so that this gentleman and I can continue our stay tonight. "

Old Captain: "..."

Perhaps because the NPC had never been such a silly guest, the old captain said poorly, and did not say a word about his polite arrogance.

"By the way, did you two encounter any punishment in that ghost room last night?" The red hair asked very curiously, and also asked the voice of everyone except Black Tea.

Not telling stories should be one of the most serious violations. In the morning, they saw Chi Nan and Ye Changquan coming out of the room all at once. They were very surprised.

So Chi Nan unreservedly told everyone what he had discovered last night. After listening to them, everyone was horrified: "So the Twilight is feeding on our fears, so that we can gain the front action power...?"

"You can also visualize fear, and then use fear to kill." Chi Nan added.

The banquet hall sighed, and the big wave thoughtfully: "But everyone has fear. Why are some people dead at night and some people are okay? Is there any trigger condition missing?"

Black Tea: "Who is more afraid, who will be selected?"

The big wave pondered for a moment: "Fear must be a necessary condition, but according to the value on the death stamp, the selected person has a large or small fear value. Why is it..."

When everyone was at a loss, Ah Qing, who had fainted briefly, finally woke up again. She started crying as soon as she was awake, and her tears were painful and helpless.

"A Qing, what exactly happened last night?" Even though it is distressed, Big Wave will seize every opportunity to find clues.

A Qing's voice was already muted: "Dream... or in a dream... We were playing hide-and-seek in the courtyard. Ayu's eyes were covered by white cloth. She was looking for me and Axue. After I hid in the flower garden, Axue got into the house. Wardrobe."

"Ayu kept calling us by name, repeatedly, her voice was weird, dull...like...like coming from the water, her body was wet, water kept flowing along the way..."

"At that time, I was hiding behind the flower garden, and I was inexplicably uneasy... as if I had forgotten something very important..."

"Just as Ayu got closer and closer to me, I remembered! I remembered everything! Ayu died... drowned in the bathtub..."

"It was so quiet and quiet at the time, I was so scared... I didn't dare to breathe... Ayu was getting closer and closer to me... When I thought I was about to be discovered, Axue in the closet accidentally made a movement, and Ayu immediately folded. Go to the closet..."

"Ayu found Axue... she found Axue in the closet... she found Axue..."

"There is a fierce noise from the closet...Boom, boom, boom! It's like someone trapped inside struggling fiercely... I want to help Axue... I really want to... but I can't move at all... it's like It’s the same as playing a woodman game..."

"Later... it feels like a long time... Ayu and Axue came out of the bedroom together. At that time, Ayu was wrapped in a pink strip of cloth on her hand. The other end of the strip... was tied to Axue's neck... Blue and purple..."

Ah Qing couldn't help sobbing again, and she trembled: "I know they are no longer human...the two of them walked towards the flower garden holding hands...so I...I..."

"I picked up a shovel and smashed them on their heads, smashed them to death... until they turned into a pool of rotten flesh... I just ran out... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you two..."

Everyone listened in silence. After a while, the big wave patted A Qing on the shoulder: "So, did you and Axue both dream last night?"

A Qing nodded: "We often enter a dream since we were young..."

"I mean, so many things happened yesterday, how can you two sleep at the same time?" Big Wave asked keenly.

In an instant, everyone present pricked their ears and discovered the problem.

When three people died during the day, almost everyone suffered from insomnia last night. Why did the twin sisters and Guo Xuan fall asleep?

Of course, Chi Nan's special existence whose sober value has been kept at 0 is excluded.

A Qing also stunned, then raised her red and swollen eyes to look at the middle-aged man: "That uncle gave us sleeping pills, and Axue and I took both, and we will be able to fall asleep soon."

Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to the middle-aged man.

His face suddenly turned blue, and he responded with anxiety, "I am also kind. I am afraid that the two little girls will not be able to sleep because of the fear that they will not be able to sleep, which will increase their wakefulness at night, so I want to give them sleeping pills to help calm their mood..."

Big Wave sneered: "So you also gave Guo Xuan in the same room?"

The middle-aged man's eyes floated: "Yes... he is also a newcomer, with poor mental quality. Using sleeping pills to help regulate sleep can help maintain emotional stability."

"You make up, continue to make up," the big wave looked over sharply, and his gaze was scratched on the opponent's face like a knife. "You used them to test death to trigger the rules? Huh?"

The exposed middle-aged man was pale, his lips moved, facing the four fresh corpses in the corner, he could not say a word.

Black tea was a little confused: "What do you mean? I'm dizzy..."

"The uncle distributes sleeping pills to the newcomer to test whether sleep is one of the triggering conditions for death."

Black tea was stunned for a moment before trying to understand: "Grass, dog stuff."

"Speaking of this, you still admit it." The big wave forced each other step by step.

The middle-aged man bit his lip and finally turned his head and sneered: "Now I know that sleep is also one of the important triggering conditions for death. If I did this test, you wouldn't have such an important clue, right? Right blame—"

His words were suddenly interrupted by a clear applause, and dark red palm prints immediately appeared on his greasy face.

"Well, I don't have the right to blame you, but it doesn't prevent me from hitting you," Big Wave wiped his hands with a wet towel and turned to A Qing. "Would you like to give him a palm? I'll hold him down for you."

A Qing hadn't reacted yet, the middle-aged man hurriedly covered his face in a panic and fled back, like a mouse crossing the street.

The big wave sneered constantly.

"Regardless of whether it's true or not, for safety's sake, don't go to bed tonight," Ye Chang said, turning to Chi Nan, "you can except."

Chi Nan gave him a faint look, and then yawned.

Hei Cha wanted to step forward and give the middle-aged man a punch, but after all he held it back, he turned to Chi Nan subconsciously and asked, "What do you think next?"

Chi Nan held a large box of death stamps in his hand: "Go to the painting exhibition hall to check a pair of stamps and see which picture is missing at the bottom."

"Go, go quickly."

The middle-aged man wanted to go with them, but before he could get out of the banquet hall, he was kicked in the banquet hall by a big wave.

Chi Nanshun locked her door...

After two days and two nights of fear of death, everyone's resistance to horror paintings has slightly improved.

At least no one vomited anymore today.

Everyone compares the stamps assigned to the paintings, and after half an hour, the correspondences are completed one by one, but there is still no clue to the disappearance of the paintings.

The painting is gone, and the stamps are gone.

What kind of death scene is depicted in this picture frame?

"What to do? It's another dead end..."

Chi Nan pondered for a moment, and suddenly he broke the next painting in his hand without saying a word, and walked out of the painting exhibition hall in silence.

Everyone didn't react at once, but they followed closely behind. Hei Cha asked as he walked: "Do you have any new discoveries? What's wrong with this painting?"

"No, maybe it's okay." Chi Nan answered truthfully.

Black tea stunned: "...then what are you going to do in a hurry with it?"

Chi Nan: "Make an experiment."

The people who followed him to the deck were confused, only Ye Chang's vision behind the lens was full of expectation and joy.

Chi Nan stood by the fence and suddenly raised the painting in his hand, giving it a free fall motion...

With a sound of ‘puff,’ the painting sank into the calm sea, causing small waves.

For a while, the sea recovered tranquility, only sparkling waves were left, and the painting was completely swallowed by the sea.

Everyone was shocked, and the red hair shouted: "Hey! What are you doing!"

Chi Nan's movements were too sudden and too fast, and no one had the time to stop him.

Chi Nan said calmly: "See if the paintings here can be destroyed."

Everyone was still dumbfounded: "...Huh?"

Ye Chang glanced at Chi Nan knowingly: "Let's go, go back to the painting exhibition hall, maybe it hangs back to its original place again."
