You Huo came out of the confinement room and the corridor was quiet.
The bald man opposite him was silent and the blood that seeped out of the room flowed everywhere.
He frowned with slight disgust and walked out of the blood.
After walking for a short while, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A strange feeling of being watched followed him like a shadow, as if something was looking down at him with lifeless eyes quietly staring at him.
You Huo looked up.
Above his head was a white ceiling and there was nothing but a dim light.
·
"Aiyo, fuck! I almost slept in violation of the rules, damn coffin face actually didn't — "Someone hurried down the stairs and turned into the corridor when the muttering stopped.
"You! Cough, you're out? "
You Huo looked away from the ceiling.
The person who came was invigilator number 922.
When he saw You Huo, he immediately changed to a businesslike tone and said "excuse me" before striding into the depths of the corridor and opening the bleeding door.
A moment later, the bald man was let out.
922 carried the limp middle-aged man and walked like he was hemiplegic.
"Why are you still here?" he asked.
You Huo put his hands in his pockets and said lazily, "Waiting for you, I'm not interested in turning into ashes."
922: "Where's 154?"
You Huo: "I don't know."
"That damn hypocrite slacking off again?"
922 muttered in the bottom of his throat.
He picked up the bald man who was gradually sliding down and didn't have time to pester him. He tilted his head towards the door and said, "Let's go, I'll send you back to the exam room."
·
On the second floor of the small bungalow.
Qin Jiu crossed his arms and leaned lazily against the window, his eyes downcast.
The light in the room was projected into the woods and 922 led the two candidates through the light and shadow, quickly drowning in the snow and fog.
Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes and stared in that direction, a little distracted.
The black bird suddenly called out in a low voice.
After a while, Qin Jiu clicked his tongue and straightened up.
He walked back to the table and fiddled with the black bird's sharp beak. He fed it a grain of food and said, "Is there something missing?"
The black bird sneered vividly, "Ha."
Qin Jiu: "An invigilator?"
Black Bird: "Heh."
Qin Jiu knocked on the bird's beak, opened the door and went downstairs.
Before he could take two steps, the black bird flapped its wings and followed him.
He looked around the hall and turned into the corridor. The faint sound of a chair being moved came from one of the confinement rooms. It was the room where You Huo was locked up.
Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows and knocked on the door three times. "Is anyone there?"
The chair inside was heavily smashed a few times.
Qin Jiu: "Is it convenient for me to go in?"
The floor was about to collapse from the weight of the chair.
Qin Jiu removed the lock.
As soon as the door opened, the missing invigilator number 154 was revealed.
He was lying in the chair tiredly with his hands behind his back. His body was tied up with ropes and his mouth was stuffed with a large ball of paper.
On the ball of paper, someone had calmly written a few words with a marker:
F * ck off, little girl.
Qin Jiu suddenly laughed.
154 was about to jump with the chair to remind Qin Jiu to let him go first.
However, when he saw the smile, he was a little scared and gently put the chair down.
Fortunately, Qin Jiu didn't appreciate the curse for too long.
A moment later, 154 finally shook off the rope and regained his freedom.
He rubbed his red wrist and scolded, "I've been an invigilator for three years and have never seen an examinee like this! People cry and cry, and he sleeps? People are in fear and trepidation and don't dare to provoke the invigilator, and he tied me up several times? "
Qin Jiu leaned on the table and listened. He said lazily, "The curse is quite rhyming. Continue."
154: "…"
If he could, he wanted to show the "f * ck off" on the ball of paper to his boss.
"As an invigilator, is it embarrassing to be tied up in the detention room by an examinee?" Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes and asked.
154's face was tense. "Yes. Fortunately, 922 didn't see it. Otherwise, he would be laughing for two years. "
Everyone who was familiar with this mechanism knew that invigilators were selected from the previous examinees. Only the most outstanding people could complete this identity change.
These people were ranked according to execution and toughness. This was the current invigilator number.
The number was in the single digits. They were all big shots among big shots. No one dared to provoke them.
For example, 001.
"You just said that …" Qin Jiu paused for a moment, as if he was considering an adjective, but in the end, he raised his eyebrows and said, "The examinee is sleeping in the detention room?"
"Yes. When I came in, his nose was still his nose, his eyes were still his eyes, and the detention room was still how it was. There was no change. There was nothing he was afraid of at all. "
154 thought for a moment and asked doubtfully, "But is that possible? How can there be such a person? I've only seen such a person in my life. "
Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes, his fingers fiddling with the neck of the black bird on his shoulder.
"Maybe life is too smooth, and he hasn't encountered anything he's afraid of?" 154 guessed. "But the so-called smoothness ends today. This group of examinees is blessed with luck. They actually drew the toothpaste question in the first question."
Qin Jiu glanced at him.
"The question is like squeezing toothpaste. Squeezing it out and a sentence pops out. I don't know if it's a bug."
Qin Jiu: "Who randomly came up with the nickname?"
"922, that idiot, gave it. It has nothing to do with me." 154 said with a straight face. "But it's still pretty accurate. When I took the exam, I was most afraid of this kind of question! It's not that it's really difficult, but the amount of information at the beginning is about zero. There's no point at all. So the first paper collection is considered invalid. One of them is destined to be sacrificed to the heavens. "
154 thought for a moment and murmured with lingering fear, "Fortunately, I only encountered it once in total. Fortunately, I wasn't chosen … I don't know who will be sacrificed to the heavens today."
He glanced at the time. "There's only a few seconds left."
·
In front of the snowy mountain hut.
922, who was as tired as a dead dog, kept a straight face and stopped You Huo before leaving.
"Is there anything else?" You Huo looked impatient.
The time for the first paper collection was almost up. He could feel the panic in the hut even through the roaring snow.
He really couldn't afford to waste a second.
922 said, "There's another rule. As people who have been confined, the two of you can't answer the questions in this round of collection."
You Huo's face became even colder.
922 waved his hand. "Don't stare at me. Anyway, this kind of question is a death sentence in the first round. There's no bonus point —"
Before he finished, You Huo had already turned his head and opened the door.
The moment the hot air hit his face, the rooster crowed without warning.
It was time to collect the papers.
The bald man was so scared that he knelt on the ground and rolled to the corner of the wall. His eyes were trembling uncontrollably.
He took the lead, and a few people in the hut followed suit.
Yu Wen was half-kneeling on the ground, his knee pressing down on the tattooed man. He was holding something in his hand, as if he had just snatched it.
He looked over blankly, raised his hand and murmured, "Brother, I found the knife, but the time … is up?"
And then?
Everyone was paralyzed on the ground in a daze, so frightened that they forgot to breathe.
The rooster's crowing made them panic.
"Will … we really be expelled from the exam?" Someone murmured softly.
Will we really be reduced to ashes in the snow? Like the iron can that scattered into powder when thrown out?
Bang!!
The locked door suddenly bounced open and slammed heavily against the wall.
Everyone trembled.
922, who hadn't left yet, also stopped outside the door.
An unprecedented wind rolled over, as if a high-altitude aircraft had suddenly removed the cabin door. A huge suction force pulled everyone desperately.
"Ahhh!"
Lao Yu cried out in surprise. He suddenly rolled to the ground and slid out of the door.
It was as if a pair of invisible hands were pulling at his ankles, trying to throw him out.
·
"The rooster crows nine times before the roll is finished."
"Also, there's a trick to the first round of this retarded question. Tsk … it's pretty shameless."
These two sentences suddenly appeared in his mind.
You Huo didn't have time to think. He grabbed Yu Wen's folding knife, jumped over the long table, and stood in front of the answer wall.
At the last crow of the rooster, he scribbled a word:
Solution.
The 922 outside the door: "…"
Is this even possible????
This really worked.
The crowing of roosters and the snowstorm came to an abrupt end.
Lao Yu's head stopped by the door. The hair on top of his head was gone. Yu Wen hugged one of his legs and rolled on the ground pathetically.
Their hearts were beating wildly. Their faces were pale and blank for a moment. Then, they turned to look at the answer wall.
After a century, there was a red comment next to the flamboyant "Solution" word:
Everyone was stunned.
The 922 was stunned.
He stood in the cold wind for a few seconds, turned around, and rushed back to report.
·
After a long while, the people in the room digested this scene.
They got up from the ground with weak legs.
"Oh my god, that scared me to death …" Lao Yu's head was cut into a bald spot. There was even a cut on his scalp that was bleeding.
Fortunately, he was still alive.
Yu Wen let go of his father's leg and collapsed on the ground like a dead dog.
After a few seconds, he sat up and slapped himself. "Look at my pig brain! How could I forget about this! Before the exam, the teacher repeatedly told me to write down the solution word regardless of whether I know how to do it or not. Each word is worth two points!!! Brother, how are you so good! "
"…"
You Huo silently put away the knife. He did not take it as a compliment.
In order to prevent this idiot from continuing to mention the word "solution", he condescendingly opened his mouth and took the initiative to ask Yu Wen a question. "Who took the knife?"
At the mention of the knife, Yu Wen instantly pulled a long face. "Who else?!"
He pointed at the tattooed man and said, "Him! We found it with him! I knew there was something wrong with him. Everyone was looking for questions and clues, but he was like a bear storing winter food, taking all kinds of knives into his pocket. If it wasn't for Sister Yu Yao being hit in the stomach by him, everyone would have made a fuss and lost the knife. Who knows how long it would take to find it! "
Thinking about the scene just now, he could not help but feel a lingering fear.
If the quarrel did not happen, if they were a little unlucky and found the knife a little later, even if You Huo came back, he would not be able to make it in time for the first exam.
Then, his father, Lao Yu …
The tattooed man was pressed into a chair. Everyone was about to condemn him.
Suddenly, the answer wall changed.
Question: A group of tourists came to the snow mountain and stayed in Hunter A's hut. A said: I have 13 sets of tableware, but food is limited. I can only treat 12 people. The tableware hides a secret. One person is destined to die. Will you be spared? This is actually not very difficult. After all, light is the most beautiful thing in the world.
Requirements: Find the right set of damn tableware (but do not damage the tableware)
Question: Optics
Everyone: "…"
Just as everyone was looking at the question in a daze, another line of words appeared below.
Violation warning: The punished examinee has violated the rules by answering the question. The invigilator has been notified.
Invigilators: 001, 154, 922.
Everyone: "…"
·
Ten minutes later.
On the second floor of the bungalow, in the invigilator's office. Invigilator 001 and the examinee who had violated the rules for the second time looked at each other in silence.
You Huo: "…"
Qin Jiu: "…"
