Handing Women’s Clothes To the Escape Game BOSS

"It's just one, the one we met at the door before."

After returning to the room, Jiang Xiuxiu finished washing up, lying on the bed, still thinking about what the teammates of the long-haired female player just said.

It seems that what she said should not be a lie.

The problem, then, is the ghost here.

In the study just now, Jiang Xiuxiu suddenly thought of something after reading the annotations in "The Selfish Gene".

That is, whether it was the one she first met at the door or the one she met later in the study, there seemed to be only one ghost.

However, this family raised two children.

That time in the study was okay, after all, there was no rule that two children and ghosts must stick to each other all the time.

But that time at the door, Jiang Xiuxiu saw two white children holding hands.

They are still playing with each other in the hall.

However, from the beginning to the end, she only heard the persuasive voice of one child.

There was no dialogue or communication between the two children.

Even if there is no dialogue, there is only one person who speaks aloud.

While thinking about it, Jiang Xiuxiu took out the little girl's picture book in the backpack.

She turned to the page of the family portrait that she had seen, and her fingers paused slightly.

She found that in this painting, the two adults were crying and tears were flowing down.

But the little pink man who was held by the two adults had a big smiling face drawn on his face.

When she turned to this page before, her attention was drawn to the phrase "When will my brother come home?", but she forgot to carefully observe the specific content of the painting.

And now, after her deliberate observation, she finally noticed something abnormal.

If we say that the faces of the characters in the picture book all symbolize their respective emotions.

So, the little girl turned out to be very happy about the disappearance of the little boy.

After confirming that this was correct, Jiang Xiuxiu only felt that her previous guess had finally come to an end.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiuxiu closed the album.

She closed her eyes, and listed all the information she had investigated or guessed about today:

First of all, regarding this family of four, when we moved in, there was only a couple and a little girl, and the other child had disappeared.

According to the passages marked in "The Selfish Gene", it can be seen that the couple's attitude towards their children is biased.

The relationship between the little girl and the little boy does not seem to be harmonious, and there is competition between them.

Moreover, through the sentence "the gene that manipulates killing brothers and sisters will spread in the gene pool", Jiang Xiuxiu speculates that the disappearance of the little boy is likely to have an unclear relationship with the little girl.

In order to compete for emotional or material "resources" such as parental care and care, the elder sister should have contributed to the "disappearance" of the younger brother to some extent.

She was skeptical about this before.

But now that she saw the smiling face of the little girl in the album, she became more and more sure.

Secondly, Jiang Xiuxiu also noticed that the male host and the hostess are very superstitious.

They would choose to move into such a remote and desolate ancient house. The motive is still unclear, but 80% of them will be related to the cause of some supernatural ghosts.

And the reason why they are addicted to supernatural ghosts is to find their missing child, that little boy.

This is all the information she can grasp in the short few hours so far.

So, is this ghost that keeps appearing, is it a little boy or a little girl?

And...is it the BOSS in this round of the game?

For the second question, Jiang Xiuxiu's experience told her that the child was probably just a ghost.

It hurts players, obviously it needs certain rules, not like the boss Xu Bai in the first world, do whatever you want.

In other words, from the beginning of the game to the present, she didn't know anything about the boss of this round of the game!

The other party has never appeared, and it seems that they have never hurt the player.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiuxiu's eyes suddenly narrowed.

Her customs clearance mission is to change the boss into a maid outfit.

For this, she must know something about BOSS.

But now, it's easy to say that she doesn't know the boss, but other than her, it seems that no other player has seen the boss.

This time the boss of the game seems to be a little too reclusive...

After realizing this, Jiang Xiuxiu was slightly startled.

Immediately, she covered the quilt and decided to sleep first.

BOSS will definitely appear, there is no doubt about that.

It hasn't appeared yet, it's just that the time has not come yet, wait for it, you will definitely meet it.

At that time, it will not be too late for her to make another move.

While thinking, she closed her eyes.

Maybe it was because she had experienced too much, and she was also a little tired. After closing her eyes, it didn't take long for her to feel sleepy.

After a few seconds, she fell into a deep drowsiness.

…

That night, Jiang Xiuxiu didn't know why, and didn't sleep peacefully.

It seems that there are many people making noises outside where she can't see, so that even in her sleep, she can vaguely perceive the situation outside.

swish... swish...

Some light and broken footsteps came in intermittently through a wooden door.

rustle…

squeak-wow-

A sharp and long knock on the door suddenly sounded in the quiet room.

Jiang Xiuxiu, who was half asleep, was finally completely awakened by this sound.

She subconsciously slowed down her breathing and pretended to be still asleep. After waiting for a few minutes, she made sure that there was no one around her, and then quietly opened her eyes.

The moonlight outside did not know when, through the thick black clouds, it swayed into the room, reflecting many blurred areas.

Her room was normal, it was pitch black, no one was there, and there was nothing extra.

But the door that she had closed tightly, and even locked the door... was opened unknowingly.

It is pushed wide open, in an "open door" gesture.

Outside the corridor, everything was gloomy and gloomy, and there seemed to be something rolling in the black mist, bringing a slight chill.

swish... swish...

Some light footsteps, through the open door, reached Jiang Xiuxiu's ears very clearly.

This was the footsteps that kept appearing in her dreams, and it was also one of the sources of unease for her.

Someone is out there!

She realized this instantly.

The rooms that players can choose from are all distributed in a corridor with only one entrance, and at the other end of the corridor is a wall.

The room Jiang Xiuxiu chose was the one closest to the entrance of the corridor.

If other people want to enter the room, they have to pass through the door of her room and then go inside.

Likewise, if they left their room, they had to pass by her door.

Now, Jiang Xiuxiu listened carefully in the dark night, and found that the footsteps came from a little bit in the corridor.

They came slowly towards the entrance of the corridor, stopping from time to time, but after a while, they would sound again.

swish... swish...

Soon, they'll be passing her door!

Jiang Xiuxiu made a decisive decision, quickly closed his eyes, and slowed his breathing!

She pretended to be still asleep and lay motionless on the bed.

rustle…

The footsteps reached her door, and then stopped.

After Jiang Xiuxiu closed her eyes, she focused her attention on her senses.

She could clearly feel that someone was looking at her through that dark door.

Its gaze is so intense that it almost turns into an entity.

Its eyes glanced at Jiang Xiuxiu for nearly three minutes, as if to confirm whether she really fell asleep.

In such a long and silent environment, Jiang Xiuxiu only felt that every minute and every second was quite torturous.

She even smelled the unpleasant smell of burning things, as if something was on fire.

fire?

The couple and their children in the ancient house seemed to have self-immolated and died...

In the height of tension, Jiang Xiuxiu couldn't help but start thinking wildly.

After an unknown amount of time, the cold gaze finally evacuated from Jiang Xiuxiu.

It seemed to confirm that Jiang Xiuxiu was really asleep and didn't look at her again.

rustle…

As the line of sight left, the footsteps outside the door rang again.

Hearing this, Jiang Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, she should be considered a muddle through.

It's just, what exactly is walking outside tonight?

Jiang Xiuxiu is a very curious person, especially after she smelled the burnt smell, she became more and more eager to move.

Since she entered this ancient house, she has not seen any trace of fire!

Not to mention the fire, she has only discovered one ghost so far.

This house is so wrong, if she doesn't take the initiative, she can only be passive!

Jiang Xiuxiu thought about this, and when she heard the footsteps outside, it was already far away, so she quietly opened her eyes, ready to take a look.

Shasha... Shasha.

Then, just as she breathed slightly and opened her eyes, the sound of footsteps outside suddenly stopped!

Jiang Xiuxiu only felt a rush of icy cold air coming from outside the door, making her shudder.

The next second, a white foot appeared outside the pitch-black gate.

In just a short breath, Jiang Xiuxiu suddenly realized, and completely figured out—

That thing outside has never left at all!

It could see that Jiang Xiuxiu might be pretending to be asleep, so it would count on it, pretending to leave, but in fact hiding outside.

When Jiang Xiuxiu finally couldn't hold back, and after the reaction appeared, it took shape!

What is it going to do? What will happen to her?

Could it be that she was to be eliminated in such an unintelligible way! ?

Jiang Xiuxiu's heart was flustered, and the whole person's mind was in chaos.

She could clearly feel that the existence of something unknown outside had already aimed its damp and malicious gaze at her...

At this critical moment, suddenly, an accident happened!

-"clang!"

From the hall on the second floor, there was an incomparably clear sound of porcelain colliding!

Immediately, something fell to the ground, making a series of "dong dong dong" sounds.

In the quiet and empty ancient house where even the sound of footsteps was obvious, such a noise was obviously far louder than the movement on Jiang Xiuxiu's side.

There's something going on over there!

Attracted by that thing, the thing outside Jiang Xiuxixi's door moved slightly.

Its eyes quickly evacuated from Jiang Xiuxiu and turned to the hall.

Jiang Xiuxiu had an idea, and quickly seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, pretended to be talking in a dream, slapped his mouth a few times, and made some unintelligible sounds.

Then, she made a gesture of still sleeping, turned over slowly, slowed her breathing, and turned her back to the door.

In this way, she can perfectly conceal the change in her breathing just now, so that things outside the door mistakenly think that she is still asleep and just turned over!

Noticing the movement on her side, the things at the door hesitated.

Soon, it made a decision, left Jiang Xiuxiu's door, and went to the hall.

swish... swish...

Outside the door, the small footsteps resounded again.

The voice was getting quieter and further away from the door of the room.

Jiang Xiuxiu was afraid of what would happen again, and was always on the verge of fear, not daring to take a breath.

She didn't open her eyes again until it was confirmed that the other party was not cheating, but had really left completely.

At this time, she realized that a thin layer of sweat was actually on her body.

Wiping her forehead hastily, she got out of bed lightly, without hesitation for too long, she bent over and walked out the door.

After one game, I played several other escape games in real life. Jiang Xiuxiu had some understanding of the rules of ghosts and other things hurting people in the game.

There should be conditions and a time limit for ghosts to hurt people.

Just like the ghosts she met at night in the first world, they would leave the player for a long time and would not keep guarding the player until dawn.

The period of time when she was just observed should be the time when the ghosts outside the house could attack her.

And after the time passed, the other party left, and she was safe.

In this way, she can go out and find out more with confidence!

Yes, even if she almost fell into the hands of that thing outside, Jiang Xiuxiu still refused to give up.

The sound from the hall not only attracted the things outside the house just now, but also attracted her.

If she pretends to be deaf and dumb and continues to sleep, she will naturally be safe.

But at the same time, she is bound to lose a lot of information.

When it's time to be cowardly, be cowardly, but when it's time to make a move, don't back down!

Afraid that the shoes would make a loud noise when she walked on the ground, Jiang Xiuxiu gritted her teeth and stepped on the floor with her bare feet.

Fortunately, many places in this ancient house are covered with carpets, and she didn't feel particularly cold when she quietly walked on the blankets.

Following the direction in which the footsteps just went away, Jiang Xiuxiu hid all the way.

Soon, she shrank in a corner, poked her head out secretly, and observed what those walking things were.

Those footsteps were so noisy that it was clearly not produced by a single person.

Jiang Xiuxiu hid it very secretly, and in order to prevent them from turning their heads, she retracted after a glance.

It didn't take long for Jiang Xiuxiu to see the true colors of these things—

Those who passed by the door of her room turned out to be the players who participated in the game with her!

Jiang Xiuxiu counted and found that there were two players walking around in the hall.

In front of them, stood a white ghost with a very vague back.

She recognized it, the white ghost, the one who had been inquiring about her just now.

Behind it, the two players seemed to be bewildered, walking staggeringly, leaving a series of "rustling" footsteps.

They walked very slowly, and it took about two minutes before the ghost and the player came to the lobby.

There was a strange noise here before, which alerted the ghost and saved Jiang Xiuxiu's life.

Only now, the hall on the second floor is empty and there is nothing.

The clear moonlight poured in through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor and fell on the ghost figure, as well as on the faces of the two players.

This time, through the illumination of the moonlight, Jiang Xiuxiu was stunned to discover that these two players were the male player and the long-haired female player who had been taken by ghosts before!

At this moment, they did not have the agile expressions they had before, and their facial expressions were extremely numb.

Their faces were extremely pale, and their eyes stared blankly forward, their eyes were scattered and colorless, and they shuttled through the house faintly, like ghosts.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiuxiu's heart sank slightly.

The two players, one male and one female, really had a problem!

What kind of existence are they, and why do they come out with white ghosts at night?

What are they going to do?

Also... in the hall just now, how could there be a sound coming out?

While Jiang Xiuxiu was bewildered, she suddenly felt a cool breeze blowing from behind her.

Immediately, something tapped her on the back.

"Shh, it's me."

A man whispered in her ear.

His voice was so low it was almost inaudible.

However, Jiang Xiuxiu recognized him the moment he heard his voice clearly.

She froze for a moment, turned her head, and saw the rookie player standing behind her, smiling slightly at her.

The faint moonlight reflected on his face, making his expression a little gentle.

It turned out that just like her, tonight, he also quietly followed.

Although this newcomer doesn't understand games, he has always been very courageous. Jiang Xiuxiu is not surprised that he will come out at night.

Jiang Xiuxiu looked at him, and then at the white ghost in the hall, a thought flashed in his mind.

She pointed to the white ghost and looked back at the newcomer.

"Is that you?" she asked silently, making a mouth shape.

Just made a noise in the hall and rescued her, is that him?

Seeing this, the newcomer nodded to her.

Sure enough it was him.

Maybe it was because the white ghost stayed at her door for too long. He, who was hiding in the hall, did something that attracted the ghost's attention and caused it to leave.

Jiang Xiuxiu thought about this, and at the moment when he was suddenly touched, he was moved indescribably.

She saw that he was going to team up with the male player before, and she silently complained that this newcomer was too stupid.

Unexpectedly, now, he is still risking being discovered to lend a helping hand to her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiuxiu was inexplicably embarrassed and guilty.

"Thank you." She thanked him cautiously.

"It's fine."

Hearing the words, the newcomer blinked, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth towards her.

Only then did Jiang Xiuxiu realize that the eyes of the newcomer were very deep black.

At this moment, half of his black eyes are facing the moonlight, and half are submerged into the darkness, there is an indescribable secluded forest.

On the other side, after the white ghost could not find the abnormality in the hall, it continued to walk with the two players.

swish... swish...

Jiang Xiuxiu was slightly startled when she heard the footsteps.

She noticed the movement in the hall and drew her attention back.
