Escape From The Ghost(9)

"Where's the key?" After scratching the itch, Luo Jian began to search Feng Yulan's body as a matter of course, and took out an old key from his pocket. It was a very ancient big-headed key. He had fought too hard with the dead body before, Luo Jian didn't look at the key carefully at all.

"Which door will this key match?" Feng Yulan also came over to observe the key. The surface of the key seemed to be plated with gold. Although it was old and ancient, it seemed very valuable. If you look closely, you will find that the key is covered with gold. It was engraved with dense lines, and it seemed that there were words engraved on it, but the words were too small. Luo Jian and Feng Yulan squinted for a long time and couldn't see what words were engraved on it.

"I wonder if there will be a magnifying glass on this ship so that we can see clearly what is written on it." Feng Yulan said.

"But where can I find a magnifying glass?" Luo Jian touched his chin and started thinking.

"Actually, there is no need to find a telescope." Feng Yulan seemed to have a good idea, and smiled and said excitedly: "There are usually telescopes on the ship, which can also be used as a magnifying glass."

"I remember that there was a telescope in the captain's cabin, hanging next to the mural. It seemed that it had not been moved for a long time and had a layer of dust." Luo Jian recalled how he was rummaging through the captain's cabin. To his own surprise, these details can be recalled so clearly. Everything he has done, the places he has visited, and the items he has turned over are as clear as a movie playback.

"It's the captain's cabin again..." Feng Yulan felt embarrassed. He thought of the stranger who might still be on the deck, and the monster he killed in the corridor near the captain's cabin, both of which were far away from the captain's cabin. Very close. So no matter what, it would undoubtedly be dangerous to go back now, and the timid Feng Yulan could only stare at Luo Jian expectantly.

But this time Luo Jian didn't pay attention to Feng Yulan's movements. He frowned and touched his arm, feeling the sharp pain in the wound on his arm. In fact, the wound had been hurting, but now it suddenly became more obvious. It was as if the pain was suddenly magnified.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Feng Yulan couldn't help but worry.

"Ah..." Luo Jian pondered for a while and said, "It's okay, it's just that the wound on my arm hurts a little."

"Let me take a look." Feng Yulan wanted to take off Luo Jian's sleeves, but he stopped him. Luo Jian shook his head and said, "It's not a big problem, but there is something I must tell you. Alan, please remember, All injuries suffered in the secret room will be completely healed when returning to the real world, and no wounds will be left. Therefore, no matter how much we torture our bodies at this time, as long as we leave the secret room within the specified time, even if we are close to death, we can Survive."

"On the contrary, any illness we have in the real world will also heal when we enter the secret room, always keeping us in the best condition, right?" Feng Yulan subconsciously touched his waist, where there was originally The knife wound was now gone without a trace.

"Yes, the secret room is very magical, and some settings are very... humane?"

"But what is the significance of the existence of the secret room? I mean... why does it let us in, and why does it arrange these trials to test us?" Feng Yulan asked the question he wanted to know most. He started from Luo Jane learned a lot of information about the secret room, but most of it was incomplete, which gave him only a vague idea of ​​this magical space.

"Who knows? I don't understand these big principles." Luo Jian stood up, put the keys in his pocket, clapped his hands and said, "We just need to survive."

In order to get the telescope, Luo Jian had to drag Feng Yulan back to the captain's cabin. When passing through a corridor, Luo Jian suddenly stopped, standing in front of a pool of blood thoughtfully, frowning tightly, Feng Yulan Yu Lan didn't react for a while and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"The monster is resurrected again." A strange smile appeared on Luo Jian's face.

Feng Yulan thought of the huge monster with a ferocious face that looked like a feline creature, and was immediately frightened, and said in surprise: "No way, you almost cut it into pieces, how can it be resurrected?"

"I don't know how it did it, but the body is gone." Luo Jian said: "The rules in the secret room are very strange. Things that are absolutely impossible to happen in the real world, here... everything is possible. "

Luo Jian kept a strange smile on his face when he said this, which made Feng Yulan on the side feel creepy just by looking at it.

"The monster seemed to get stronger as it was resurrected. The first time I met it, even though I was inexperienced and injured, I was still able to kill it easily. But the second time, I felt that its power and speed had increased significantly. Do you know what will happen to this resurrection? We'd better find an exit quickly, otherwise it will be endless."

The only clue at this stage is the key in his hand. The key is engraved with dense small characters. Only by deciphering these characters can there be a way to survive, so Luo Jian took Feng Yulan back to the captain's cabin. There seemed to be nothing unusual in the captain's room, as if no one except Luo Jian and the others had come in.

After Luo Jian came in, he ran directly to the telescope hanging on the wall, took it off and checked to make sure there was no fault. Feng Yulan followed behind and closed the door tightly. The two people crowded together holding oil lamps and began to use the telescope awkwardly. When used as a magnifying glass, the characters engraved on the key come into view one by one.

[ The murderer buried the only exit. If you want to survive, kill him. ]

Feng Yulan frowned and said helplessly: "Our question is back to the original point. Who is the murderer? Is it the captain, the navigator, or the two surviving crew members?"

"Maybe everyone is a murderer?"

"how do I say this?"

"The pirate ship couldn't find its direction in the fog, and all members on board were in chaos. And according to the description in the logbook, something happened on August 9. We don't know what it was, but we can understand that it was It is something that everyone is extremely taboo about. This matter may have aggravated the negative psychology of the crew. In this case, no one can stay rational, and there may also be other reasons, such as the consumption of water and food, the inability to Continue to provide for the survival of such people.

The captain may have indeed instigated others to attack others, but his behavior may have been just a fuse, which started a fire and filled everyone's hearts with the desire for destruction. "

"So one after another, people began to kill each other, and with a tacit understanding, they stuffed the dead people into boxes and piled them up. The remaining people were like madmen. In the end, the people who survived also started the fight. In the final episode, the captain was killed when he wanted to record everything, and one of the other two crew members was killed by the other. The one who survived was the final winner. When he killed the navigator, he took his The body was hung on a high observation tower."

Luo Jian slowly told the story, and rationally deduced the truth of the matter one by one. At the end of the story, he paused and said: "Now we can imagine what will happen to the only remaining survivor. What's it like?"

"Suicide?" Feng Yulan's first thought was this: "This ship has obviously not escaped from the fog. When everyone is dead, there will always be a day when the water and food are exhausted. In addition to committing suicide in loneliness and despair, Death, I can't think of any other ending for him."

"Then where might he commit suicide?" Luo Jian asked.

"I don't know." Feng Yulan shook his head: "It depends on personal psychology. If it were me, I would choose to be on the deck. Even if there is no light in the fog, I don't want to die alone in a dark place. "

"What if it's a woman?" Luo Jian suddenly smiled widely.

"Woman?" Feng Yulan admitted that he had never cared about the gender of the only survivor. In his opinion, few people who could be pirates were women.

"If she is a very beautiful woman, very vengeful, hates everything, has both self-confidence and low self-esteem, may be religious, distorts her character in the fog, and kills many people without saying a word, what do you think of such a woman... …where would you choose to die?"

Feng Yulan frowned and thought for a long time, and said tentatively: "Perhaps, you will find a place where others cannot see it, or in other words, a place where no one can find it? But... Luo Jian, why do you think that Will the last survivor be a woman?"

"Because of the first victim in the wooden box on the deck, he had a photo of him and his wife."

Feng Yulan suddenly thought of the old photo in his notebook.

"You think his wife will be on board too?"

"Perhaps, I'm just guessing that the page that was torn out of the logbook on August 9th may have something to do with his wife, or maybe he was oppressed, or even..." Luo Jian paid attention to his own The wording, whispered: "She was given to someone, and was discovered, and made it known to everyone or other things. This poor woman's husband didn't know how to avenge his woman, and sneered at the captain, of course He might have done something else, and in the end he became the first victim..."

"Then this woman wisely stayed calm and struggled to survive among a bunch of wolves. Maybe she also sacrificed something, such as... her body? She instigated various men to cause disputes for her and vowed to force everyone to death?" Fengyu Lan accepted Luo Jian's conjecture and made the next guess about the entire fact.

Luo Jian nodded: "As she wished, everyone died. She may be at a loss in her heart. Her husband is a believer, and she is probably the same. After killing so many people through design, this woman may think that she I betrayed the Lord, so I wanted to hide in a place where I couldn't see any light and let my traces disappear completely from the world."

"But could she have committed suicide by jumping into the sea?"

Luo Jian glanced at Feng Yulan and said, "The first reminder the note gave me was not to jump into the sea. From this, we can also see a lot. For example, that woman definitely did not jump into the sea."

"Okay, what should I call you? The whimsical Analyst Emperor?"
