I cheated in the escape game

Chapter 73 Distress
Youying stepped into the corridor marked with the English word "Hell". As soon as she stepped in, a thick wall descended behind her, blocking the original path with a "bang--".

The originally dim corridor lights flickered on one after another, making the entire deep and narrow space brighter, surrounded by retro-style designs, adding a sense of mystery.

Youying looked at the road in front of her calmly, without any panic, and she walked slowly forward.

At the same time, on the other side of the thick wall, Satan put his hands in his pockets and walked towards Youying in the opposite direction. They passed each other head-on just across the wall.

Just when they reached the position where they passed each other, Satan paused in his steps. Youying, who continued to walk forward, stopped after a few steps. They both looked towards the corridor behind them, vaguely feeling To what.

Youying quietly looked at the empty corridor, remained silent for a moment, then turned her head and walked forward.

But Satan stood alone, staring darkly at the corridor behind him for a long time. He didn't look back until Youying came around the corner.

"Well, what a strange illusion." Satan whispered with a deep face, then turned back to the original direction and continued walking forward, "Idiot, where are you? Are you really trying to torture my patience like this? Did you tell me not to run around..."

Youying continued to walk forward for a while, and suddenly a melodious and gentle singing sounded in the empty corridor. The voice was probably that of a girl, plain and sweet.

"...If you want to be a killer, you will have no thoughts; if you want to be a madman, you will not be afraid of prejudice; if you want to be a bad person, you will wear a mask; if you want to be a liar, you will lie to yourself; if you want to be a dead person, you will be spared pain..."

The song was melodious, clear and light, with a very calm and gentle tone, but it had a magical quality that attracted Youying to slowly walk in that direction involuntarily.

The singing continues.

"...I want to be a ghost and say goodbye to the world - I hate the world, and I covet its beauty, and I paralyze myself in the illusion..."

When Youying walked closest to the source of the sound, the singing stopped abruptly.She saw a figure standing in front of her not far away. It was a very thin and desolate figure. The girl's long black hair hung down behind her. She had a beautiful posture and a sense of familiarity. She was wearing a short white skirt, which set off her fair skin. Slightly transparent.

unreal.

Youying's gray pupils shrank slightly the moment she saw the girl. Her eyes were filled with ripples, like water droplets falling into the lake, causing ripples. Her breathing became rapid, and her hands were held together tightly.

The girl stood in the middle of the corridor. There happened to be a bright yellow lamp on the ceiling above her head. The warm yellow light emitted fell on her body. She turned her back to Youying and remained silent.

After a pause of about a few minutes, the girl hummed the tune of the song lightly, humming lightly, but it can easily touch people's heartstrings.

As the song reached its climax, the girl tilted her head slightly in Youying's direction.Seeing her side face, Youying was shocked - that girl looked exactly like her.

"Destroy it."

As soon as the girl finished speaking, her figure disappeared.

Seeing this, Youying stepped forward and ran towards the girl. After just a few steps, the ground began to crack, and it began to crack and fall in her direction from where she was standing just now.

Youying was slightly startled and ran forward as hard as she could. However, her speed could not match the speed of the ground cracking. She only felt that her feet were empty, stepping on a piece of gravel that had broken away from the entire ground, and her entire body began to fall. .

"what--"

The pain she expected did not come. When Youying opened her eyes, she found herself slumped on the ground, surrounded by blazing fire. The fierce fire spread and devoured her. Based on the scene, she remembered this abandoned wooden house from the previous dream. Same.

Youying's breathing was stagnant, her narrowed pupils were full of helplessness, her mind was filled with the gloating laughter of those teenagers, and those happy smiling faces were distorted and deformed in her mind, looking at her like monsters Claws extended, closer.

do not come near me.

Youying hugged her head, and the crystal clear teardrops fell on the ground, the scorching heat made her almost suffocate.

"Don't come near me!" She cried and shouted, tears sliding down her cheeks, leaving tear stains. "What did I do wrong? Why did you do this to me? Tell me!"

No one answered her words, only the loud sound of the spreading and blooming fire.

Youying opened her empty and unfocused eyes, squatting there with her head in her arms. The surroundings were burning with raging fire, showing no signs of stopping.

In a trance, she saw the clear full moon and a tree with light yellow flowers in full bloom. The clear light fell on the branches and silhouetted against the ground. The beautiful picture was mesmerizing.

Just when Youying's eyes became increasingly dim and dull, the beautiful scene quickly switched to Satan's cold and determined face.The man's expression was gloomy and cold, which made her sober for a moment.

"You said that you will survive if you work hard, I remember."

It seems that the words Satan once said are still ringing in my ears.

live.

Youying stood up slowly, her absent-minded eyes slowly focusing. She wanted to observe the surrounding environment, but the intense fire prevented her from thinking properly. The firelight reflected in her eyes, bright and burning.

She tried hard to calm down her emotions, but she was always troubled by the burning fire around her. Those fires filled her mind, and the vague dreams reappeared clearly again - was that her past?

"Hey! Youying! Promise me to live!"

Satan's deep magnetic voice suddenly sounded in Youying's mind, interrupting her deepening thoughts.She recovered from her daze, folded her hands and clasped them on her chest, and murmured in a low voice for spiritual refuge, "Satan, Satan..."

She shouted his name over and over again. Although it was just her auditory hallucination, it was now her entire spiritual support.She never thought that the manic and treacherous man would become her shore, the spiritual shore dangling on the sea.

Tears fell from the corners of his eyes and hit the ground, crystal clear.

"You said that you will survive if you work hard, I remember."

……

At this moment, Satan, who was still walking blindly in the deep corridor, stopped and looked straight ahead. His stern face was expressionless, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his eyes were dark.He, who had always been irritable and unstable, calmed down at this time, giving off a mature and stable feeling.

However, this kind of maturity is more melancholy than the maturity of an adult male, and his aura is strong and aggressive, which makes people afraid.

The tall and straight body of the man disappeared in the dim light.

"Don't die."
