Chapter 40 Camera
"You mean the pajama girl and Chen Xiaomeng have the same purpose?" Fatty felt that he could follow Jiang Cheng's thinking.
Indeed.
If you think about it carefully, there are indeed similarities between the two behaviors. They both used the rules in the mission to attack their teammates.
In the last mission, Chen Xiaomeng tricked and killed Fan Li.
If it weren't for Jiang Cheng's cleverness, he and he would have followed Fan Li's footsteps.
Now that I think about it, Sister Nuan's death may also have an unclear relationship with this woman.
The girl in pajamas killed the cheongsam girl in the same dormitory.
In the only two missions, they encountered almost the same behavior of trapping and killing teammates, which cannot be explained by accidental events.
The lesbian in pajamas is the same as Chen Xiaomeng.
There must be some purpose.
Reminiscing that the body of the cheongsam girl had been searched, Jiang Cheng's first reaction was that they were looking for something.
The fat man also realized this.
The willingness to let them take such a big risk shows that this item is very important, and it is most likely related to the current predicament they are facing.
"Could it be something that can help us escape from nightmares?" Fatty asked cautiously, "At the beginning of the mission, this thing will be randomly given to one of us, and then we will get this thing." Those who have something will survive and leave in the end.”
"It's like what often happens in games."
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and nodded, "It's possible, but it's not accurate. It might be more appropriate to say that getting this thing will increase our probability of survival. ”
As of now, there is no way to verify the guess, so the two of them did not delve into it.
They continued walking towards the equipment room.
With Jiang Cheng leading the way, they quickly found the equipment room.
It was at the other end of the school, in a relatively remote location.
A sign for a device management center hangs on a low bungalow.
It is still the old sliding window design from decades ago, with iron bars erected on the windows, which are stained with rust.
The same goes for the iron-clad gate, with the iron sheet already rolled up at the corners.
But fortunately it is not as rusty as the fence.
Because it is coated with a thin layer of metallic zinc.
Time seems to be particularly obsessed with this place, and traces of time can be seen everywhere. The fat man blinked and said: When he was very young, his grandma's house in the county town looked like this.
Jiang Cheng looked around and walked over with the fat man without saying anything else.
Just when he was about to walk through the door, the door was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
A woman's face appeared in front of them.
"Come in."
As the woman spoke, she turned around and retreated, with her back to the two of them, as if to lead the way.
It’s the ponytailed woman in room 406.
Her voice has a slightly hoarse texture, but it is not rough.
A strange feeling suddenly emerged from the fat man's heart.
He actually felt that the woman and this environment were inexplicably matched.
Jiang Cheng, who was walking beside him, glanced at him sideways and said nothing.
The space in the equipment room was larger than Jiang Cheng had imagined. They passed through a courtyard paved with fine sand.
There are tables and chairs used by students piled randomly in a corner of the yard, but it seems that these tables and chairs must be abandoned and have no maintenance value.
There is a glass blackboard with a corner broken next to the wall. The blackboard newspaper on it has been blurred, and only the first and last two words can be vaguely seen.
A "no" word.
And the word "来".
“Doctor.” The fat man called Jiang Cheng gently before removing the latter from his thinking state.
Jiang Cheng looked back and realized that the room in the courtyard was their destination.
The woman with the ponytail, the middle-aged man in the vest and another man in the same room are all here.
The girl in pajamas, whom the fat man was thinking about, was hiding behind everyone, looking nervous and frightened. She was holding the hem of her pajamas with both hands, and her eyes were filled with amusement.
But I didn’t see a man in a suit or a peaked cap.
"It doesn't matter how many of you come." A man's voice rang out. He was old but full of energy. It was obvious that he was not a teammate in this mission.
"I have already said what needs to be said. Your equipment is just as it is when it comes, and it has nothing to do with me."
The lighting here is poor, so the two of them did not take a look at it immediately. To the people in the dark.
Jiang Cheng suddenly narrowed his eyes.
It was an elderly man, about 65 years old, with an abnormally pale skin, as if he had not seen the sun for a long time.
The figure is unnaturally hunched, but the eyes give people an illusion that cannot be ignored.
The old man took a step towards Jiangcheng.
It was only then that everyone realized that the old man seemed to have problems with his legs and feet. It was difficult to walk. He also held a cane made of wood in his left hand.
"What's going on?" Jiang Cheng turned to look at Ponytail.
“We said we were going to pick up the equipment, but it turned out that there was something wrong with the camera.” Ponytail said concisely.
Except for her, the other people's expressions were not very good, especially the middle-aged man in a vest, who was gnashing his teeth and seemed to want to beat the old man violently to relieve his anger.
After the fat man heard that there was a problem with the equipment, he took the initiative to come up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ponytail signaled another man to bring the equipment over.
After turning on the camera, the man pointed at the lens and said: "There is water vapor in it."
The fat man blinked, "Is this serious?"
"Yeah." The man breathed out, judging from his expression I also know that this matter is not simple. "It will seriously affect the shooting effect. It would be fine if it was just a little bit, but now it can be seen clearly." If you look through the lens and see tiny droplets of water condensing inside, you can usually consider buying a new lens.”
“Don’t you have a spare?”
“Yes, but still. It’s not as good as this.” The man whispered: “We have already screened it.”
Oops
They came to shoot the anniversary celebration, but now there is something wrong with the camera.
At this time, the man bit his lip, came up and whispered: "I'm afraid it's not an accident, it's Someone deliberately moved their hands and feet." He took out the camera. After opening the camera bag, he said to the two of them: "There is moisture-proof silica gel inside. This camera bag also has a certain moisture-proof function, so it is impossible for something like this to happen in one night."
He said After finishing speaking, he looked at the old man, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
But the old man still looked the same, leaning on a cane, his eyes blurred, as if covered with a layer of fog.
"Where are the two people in room 405?" Jiang Cheng turned to look at Ponytail, "Why didn't you see them?"
"I don't know." Ponytail looked much calmer than the remaining three people, "They are here. I haven’t seen them since then, maybe I went to look for clues elsewhere.”
I don’t know whether it’s intentional or not, but the ponytail has a strong emphasis on the word clue. Please vote, this is really important!
This is not a drill, not a drill! !
