The rooster hanging on the door turned its neck again and stared out the window to crow.
The three invigilators came in the snow, and the moment they entered, the cold air hit their faces.
It was a familiar scene and familiar people.
The faces of the old, weak, sick, and disabled in the room were wooden.
154's face was even more wooden. "We received another violation notice."
He took out a piece of paper and said, "The notice says that a certain examinee –"
"A certain examinee who looks obedient but refuses to change." Qin Jiu added teasingly as he took off his gloves.
154 looked at him in disbelief.
"Is there a problem?" Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows.
154: "… No."
He was just puzzled. How blind must one be to see "obedient" in You Huo?
But the person who added nonsense was the boss, so he could only let him fart.
You Huo leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and glanced coldly at Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu, on the other hand, smiled and nodded in return through the orange-yellow fire and light.
His actions were truly gentlemanly, and his temperament was truly mocking.
154 was afraid that a certain invigilator and a certain examinee would fight on the spot, so he quickly said with a straight face, "— A certain examinee answered the question in violation of the rules, causing the main part of the question –"
922: "It's the hunter's armor."
154: "… died on the spot. This situation is relatively rare at present – "
922: "Unheard of."
154: "… We need to do an investigation. I hope you can explain."
922: "Mainly referring to an individual examinee."
154 closed his eyes.
The boss was always attracting hatred, and there was something wrong with his colleagues' brains.
He paused for a moment and put away the note expressionlessly. He said to everyone, "Where is the hunter's armor?"
The examinees in the room moved to the sides, revealing a long dining table. There was a large ball of cloth lying at the foot of the table.
The invigilator walked closer and took a closer look. Only then did he realize that it was not a cloth, but a long black jacket. The jacket was wrapped in a worn and moldy cloak, and the edges were black bear fur. It gave off an old and unpleasant sour smell.
The unlucky hunter's armor was lying face down in the pile of clothes.
With the professional ethics of an invigilator, 922 turned the hunter's armor over.
When the hunters were alive, their skin was deathly pale, and after they died, their skin was even greener. His face was tilted to one side, and his eyes were wide open. He still maintained an expression of disbelief and shock. His mouth was like a cracked hole, and his lips and tongue were bright red.
922 took a step back seriously. While no one was looking, he wiped his fingers on the back of 154's coat.
154: "…"
He resisted the urge to roll his eyes and bent down to check.
Hunter A's thick fingers were still holding a broken glass leg. The rest of the glass had already shattered into pieces on the floor.
According to the violation notice, Hunter A said, "Everyone in the house, whoever breaks the tableware will be severely punished."
This was completely in line with the requirements of the exam. It was meant for the examinees to hear.
Who knew that not long after he finished speaking, he would fall down and die faster than anyone else.
Although he knew the general process, 154 still confirmed to You Huo in a business-like manner, "Did you kick him?"
You Huo looked down at him and said lazily, "My legs were numb and I couldn't stand properly, so I stumbled."
Everyone: "…"
God the f * ck stumbled.
154: "Isn't this reason a little perfunctory?"
You Huo: "The tableware can't be damaged because of my rules?"
154: "That's not it."
You Huo: "Did you guys give birth to this uncoordinated hunter?"
154: "…"
The other party was cold and sarcastic. Invigilator 154 felt a little overwhelmed. He turned his head to find someone who was even more sarcastic to save the situation, but found that there was only 922 beside him. Their boss didn't even come to check the body.
Seeing the invigilator in a daze, Yu Wen mustered up his courage and asked, "Uh … Hunter A broke the glass, and he died based on his own ability. Can you not count my brother as a violation?"
Beep beep beep —
Before 154 could open his mouth, three violations sounded in the room.
This was the first time three invigilators were warned at the same time.
No one in the room had heard this sound before and was a little confused.
Yu Wen looked around for the source and asked warily, "What's wrong now?"
922 comforted, "Don't be nervous, it's just that the exam system is urging us to hurry up and punish him."
Everyone was silent for a moment and became even more nervous.
Someone else said, "Then … can I take the punishment for him?"
Everyone turned their heads to look. The one who spoke was Yu Yao.
She raised her thin white hand like a student in class trying to get the teacher's attention. Up close, it could be seen that her hand was shaking, but her eyes were determined.
Unfortunately, the invigilators directly ignored her.
·
The system urged two more times.
Two invigilators passed through the crowd and walked to You Huo's side.
The others wanted to follow, but hesitated and didn't dare to.
Especially when 154 glanced at them halfway, those who wanted to move were nailed to the ground.
922 wasn't so serious when facing You Huo. He relied on the fact that the other examinees couldn't hear him and spouted nonsense: "It's not that we want to make things difficult for you, but to tell you the truth, when 154 received the violation notice, he missed a step on a flight of stairs and my beef fell on his foot. Boss was playing with a bird and almost broke the bird's head. We don't want to punish you, really, who would that be torturing – don't sneer, I find that you have a special opinion of our boss. "
You Huo's gaze swept over Qin Jiu's body and quickly retracted, as if looking at his eyes hurt.
922 shook his head and said: "You really have guts."
Big Brother You was unmoved.
922 said: "The exam wall clearly states that you can't damage the tableware. Yes, you didn't directly smash the cup. If you really did that, the one who's hard on the ground right now would be you. But to say that the cup fell and the question died, but nothing happened to you … even if I were the system, I'd be angry. "
"An indirect reason is also a reason." 922 touched his neck.
When the system issued the warning, his red light was hidden at the end of his hair.
922 paused and said to You Huo: "This is already the result of the system's fair evaluation."
·
You Huo straightened up.
"What are you doing?" 154 asked warily.
You Huo's height was estimated to be about 185 cm, taller than 154 by a bit, and about the same as 922. But when he stood up straight and looked over, he always gave people a feeling of condescension, and 922 was no exception.
You Huo glanced at them lightly: "Did I say I refused to be punished?"
922: "Then what are you doing here with your arms crossed?"
You Huo moved his lips: "Out of courtesy, I'll let you finish your words."
The two invigilators: "…"
If there was a gun, they would have opened fire.
·
You Huo lifted his foot and left.
As he passed through the crowd, Lao Yu grabbed him: "Are you really going?"
You Huo frowned subconsciously.
He had always hated skin contact, especially this kind of sudden and unannounced. But Lao Yu was sincerely worried, he held back for two seconds before pulling his hand away: "This time won't make a difference."
This was already the third time in the palace, what was there to be afraid of? He thought to himself.
It was just a small building. After the confinement, the blood had been swept away, and the bones and flesh had all been seen. What else could he do?
Besides, no matter how annoying the punishment was … even if he and No. 001 were to stare at each other, it would be no more than three hours.
With his last bit of patience, he waved his hand at Lao Yu and walked towards the door without looking back: "That little bit of punishment time will be over in a nap."
As soon as his voice fell, a familiar voice rang out.
"Mr. Hmph, who refuses to change despite repeated admonitions –"
You Huo stopped at the door. He grasped the doorknob and looked to the left with an expressionless face.
Qin Jiu stood there, propping himself up against the back of the sofa, playing with a leather whip in his hand … oh no, a long leather rope.
He dragged his voice and asked: "You're in a hurry. Where are you going?"
You Huo confronted him for a moment and finally moved his lips: "Reincarnation. How about I wait for you together?"
Qin Jiu laughed briefly and said in a deep voice: "I'm flattered, but you don't have to run so far."
You Huo frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Ah, right." Qin Jiu turned to look in the direction of the room. "Where's our other invigilator? Did you forget to tell him about the punishment this time? "
You Huo looked at 154 suspiciously.
The invigilator took out another piece of paper and read: "According to the rules, if the same examinee violates the rules three times in a row, he will become a special target. The invigilator will supervise the entire examination on the spot and monitor him closely."
Everyone: "…"
For some reason, the invigilator's tone was very pained.
154 glanced at You Huo and continued to read: "In addition, the examinee will be deprived of the right to choose once."
The room was dead silent.
After a moment, You Huo looked at Qin Jiu and said coldly: "Are you kidding me?"
Qin Jiu made a "please" gesture at him and was so gentlemanly that it was asking for a beating: "I'm not kidding. There's still —"
He took out a phone from his coat pocket and looked at it half-seriously: "— 36 hours and 24 minutes. This means that we'll have to stay in the same room for a day and a half. We even brought our luggage. It's right at the door. Why don't you open the door and take a look? "
You Huo opened the door and took a look outside.
Two suitcases were neatly placed by the door.
You Huo: "…"
36 hours and 24 minutes …
This was no longer a matter of sleeping … This was a f * cking long sleep.
And who were they trying to disgust by bringing suitcases???
"Oh, right, I also want to remind you." Qin Jiu's voice rang out again. "There's still 24 minutes until the second roll in. It's going to be 23 minutes. According to the rules, examinees who violate the rules have no right to answer the questions during this period. In order to prevent some unrepentant gentlemen from forcefully breaking the rules, I have no choice but to do something impolite … "
As Qin Jiu spoke, he had already wrapped the leather rope in his hand around You Huo's left hand.
He grabbed You Huo's shoulder and turned him around. Then, he wrapped his right hand around You Huo's right hand and jerked it violently.
Slap — —
The rope instantly knotted and tightly gripped You Huo's hand.
Qin Jiu stood behind him and held his shoulder as he lowered his head and said: "This is a return gift for that dirty bucket. Do you like it?"
