I cheated in the escape game

Chapter 83 Courage
"help me!"

In a burning library, a girl was crushed under the burning bookshelf. She looked at the man standing not far away in horror and fear, stretched out her hand and shouted for help, "Help me!!"

Shadow's lips trembled slightly - a familiar scene appeared in front of him, and the memory began to replay in his mind.

His legs were shaking. He wanted to save her, but the fear inside him prevented him from moving.

save her.

However, what Youying once said to him was still lingering in his mind: "If you want to pass the level, don't be involved in emotions and let go of the past."

"But..." Shadow roared in pain, "How can I let go of that past?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran towards the girl. What Youying saw when he just walked in was that scene - the tall and thin shadow ran hard towards the girl who was pressed by the bookshelf, but he didn't notice the huge burning beside him. The bookshelf fell straight towards him.

Youying watched that scene calmly as if she had expected it.

"Is that really the case... I can't get out of the darkness of the past."

The scene in front of her suddenly changed. There was a thin drizzle of rain falling in the gray sky. In the wide gray street, the first thing she saw was the handkerchief thrown next to the trash can. She felt like she was also like that discarded handkerchief. Like a handkerchief, it's just rubbish.

"Actually, I want to help you, but I'm afraid..."

A girl's voice suddenly sounded behind her, Youying turned around and looked at it calmly, but the scene in front of her changed in vain, and changed to the interior of the library.It was dark all around, and only the area corresponding to reading had clear lights.

The little girl who had just been pressed by the bookshelf was sitting at the long table, reading the books in her hands very seriously. The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window of the library was dim, and it seemed that she was the only one left in the entire library.

Youying turned around and saw the shadow sitting at the counter working.

The man was wearing work clothes, his face was gloomy, giving off a dull feeling, and the work in his hands was going on slowly but without stopping at all, without saying a word.

The surrounding area is very quiet, and the scene is considered warm.

"boom--"

A loud noise suddenly exploded, and the ground was reflected by the scorching light of fire. Youying turned around and saw that the fire behind her rushed towards her face, quickly sweeping up everything around her and approaching, all of which came without warning.The fire alarm system in the house was turned on, but to no avail.

"what--"

A painful scream interrupted Youying's distracted thoughts. She saw the girl being crushed under the bookshelf, and her position was still a long way from the door.The shadow that had already run to the gate turned around when he heard the shout.

"Save me..." The girl shed tears in fear, and the hot temperature burned her skin, and she gradually lowered her head.

Shadow struggled internally and stared straight in the girl's direction.As the fire spread, the library door was burned down and collapsed, almost hitting him. The fire became even stronger and he was forced out.

Finally, the raging fire engulfed everything.

The quiet street suddenly became noisy. There were sirens blaring on the road, firefighters were extinguishing the fire, and passers-by came over one after another and gathered around the burning library to talk.Some people in the crowd took pictures, some waved and said it was time to leave... Maybe all this was just an insignificant thing to them, but it turned Shadow's life upside down.

Youying stood in the bustling crowd, always looking at the shadow standing in the most marginal crowd.

The man seemed to have received a fatal blow. Pain and shock appeared on his usually gloomy face. He lowered his head and did not dare to look in the direction of the library. After the little girl was carried out by the staff, his figure was also silent. disappeared into the crowd.

Perhaps no one will know what happened at that time, but a seed of repentance was planted in his heart.

"Actually, I want to save you, but I'm afraid..."

……

When Youying came to her senses, she found herself standing in the corridor.

It's still the same corridor. There are two seals on the door in front of it, and the third player, Shadow, is probably locked inside.

"Are you sad, Youying?"

A familiar charming voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Youying turned around calmly and saw He Shasha standing not far away from her.

The woman held a folding fan in her hand and half-hidden her face, "What a kind little thing. Why do you always want to save them? They are obviously people who have hurt you before... Just let Satan deal with the rest. , that man will definitely listen to you, and he has the strength."

"I have not deprived anyone of the right to life." Youying looked directly at Hesha, "And this approach is very selfish."

"Selfish?" He Sha was puzzled.

"Using other people's feelings to do such sinful things for yourself is not only selfish, but also vicious."

Hearing this, He Shazi looked at Youying meaningfully, and burst out laughing, "I didn't expect that even such a smart Youying is still very weak in expression, and can't even say a harsh word."

After hearing this, Youying remained silent.

Hesha put the folding fan away, tapped the palm of his hand, and continued to ask, "Do you want to help that player Lengque? It seems that you are quite interested in her."

"You're asking too much." Youying didn't want to answer, "If you just want to punish us players who have done something wrong, why don't you just kill us and force us to participate in these games?"

As soon as he finished speaking, He Shasha's expression froze: You made a rough guess so quickly? ...But yes, she is her.

Just as she was calming down with Shasha and regaining her peace of mind, Youying asked another question that shocked her: "What is our relationship? We have known each other before, right?"

Although it was a question, Youying said it in a positive tone.

He Shasha took a few steps back and looked at Youying in front of her with vigilance. The other person's delicate and childish appearance and the deep and unpredictable psychology made her feel scared.Even though he was the one behind the scenes, he felt a sense of threat that it was difficult to control the situation.

Suddenly, Youying felt a familiar aura approaching, the strong and aggressive aura enveloped her, and then she heard the man's deep, familiar voice coming from behind her.

"Ah, I finally found you, Youying."

Youying turned around, and before she could see the person behind her clearly, she suddenly fell into a hard and warm embrace. Satan's magnetic voice came from above her head, "I am really lucky to find you."

Youying raised her head and glanced calmly at the place where she and Sha Sha were standing just now - the other party had disappeared.

She lowered her eyes and buried her face in Satan's arms again. Suddenly, she asked aloud, "Who did Satan meet in the game?"

"Idiot, of course I met you," Satan hugged the person in his arms tightly, his face became gloomy and scary when he thought of what he encountered in the game, "There is someone pretending to be you again, it's really unpleasant."

　small theater:

　　The author raised his hand and said, "I think Satan can bring three dozen fake ghosts."

　　Satan's face was gloomy: "What nonsense are you talking about? Make another fake one, and I'll kill you."

　　Youying poked at Satan's clothes: "Do you want to travel through the dimensional wall?"
