"Everyone has a basement full of darkness in their heart. They will lock the bad past into the basement room. Sometimes they will open the door and let the sunshine in, and sometimes they also want to let the sincere people

Go in. However..."

When Chu Tianshu came back from the door, the handsome young man was sitting on the sofa watching a movie.

He hugged his pillow and stared at the screen with his dark eyes without blinking.

Chu Tianshu shook off the cold air from his coat and hung it on the hook by the door. He took a can of Coke from the refrigerator and squeezed in next to Lin Huai: "Are you watching a movie?"

"Yeah." Lin Huai pressed the pause button, and the picture on the TV stopped at the tearful eyes of the blond male protagonist, "Have you seen the crime movie called The Talented Mr. Ripley?"

"No." Chu Tianshu opened the can, "What are you talking about?"

"A man wanted to go into another man's basement." Lin Huai pressed the play button, "and he was strangled to death."

Chu Tianshu:......

He sprayed Coca-Cola all over his body and coughed loudly. Lin Huai looked at the TV screen with an expressionless expression on the actor sitting alone in the dark: "For some people, the darkness in their hearts is untouchable.

This story tells us..."

He yawned: "Don't break into other people's houses illegally."

Chu Tianshu:......

"Let's talk about something lighter and more pleasant." Chu Tianshu handed another can of Coke to Lin Huai, "For example, what is your copy of tomorrow morning? What is it called?"

"The four beauties among the flowers." Lin Huai said, "Well... the task prompt is to assist the examiner in completing the plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum pictures."

"The four beauties in the flower? That is, plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum?" Chu Tianshu wiped off the coke on his body, "Sounds like a painting task."

He couldn't help showing a gloating smile: "Hahaha, you're done."

Lin Huai, who can draw as well as a primary school student:...

"Do you want to die?" He smiled kindly.

The two people fought each other for a while on the sofa in a pure sense. The movie credits on the TV were also played to the end, leaving only a black screen. Chu Tianshu raised his hands to block the pillow that hit his face. He looked at the clock

: "It's twelve o'clock, let's go to bed early?"

Lin Huai: "Oh."

He put down the pillow and let out a long yawn. With the gradual integration of body and soul, he now looks more and more like a human being in reality.

"Should I enter the dungeon with you tomorrow?" Chu Tianshu pulled his arm pitifully, "I don't want to experience the pain of a long-distance relationship anymore..."

"Tsk, okay." Lin Huai warned him in advance, "Don't touch me in the dungeon."

"Of course I know the priorities..." Chu Tianshu said easily.

Lin Huai nodded with satisfaction, and Chu Tianshu continued: "Of course the points deduction is more serious and urgent with you..."

Lin Huai:……

"Okay, okay, follow all your instructions!" Chu Tianshu gave him a careless salute.

The night before entering the dungeon ended like this. They lay side by side on the bed, preparing to fall asleep.

Lin Huai suddenly turned his body towards Chu Tianshu.

"Will you strangle me?" he asked softly.

"?" Chu Tianshu also turned to him.

"Will you strangle me?" he asked reluctantly.

Chu Tianshu stared at him steadily for a while, then suddenly coughed slightly: "Don't we all need to... set a safe word in advance?"

Lin Huai:……

Chu Tianshu: "I can try it next time. What safe word do you want? Smash Varudo?"

"...You are such a person." Lin Huai showed a look of disdain, "Why are you so full of pornographic waste?"

He turned around and didn't bother to pay attention to him. Chu Tianshu hugged him from behind, put his hands across his waist, and pressed on his abdomen: "I thought you wanted to play suffocation..."

Lin Huai:...What a wolf-like statement.

"It's not like you can't try." Lin Huai closed his eyes and said, "Now sleep, don't touch me."

Chu Tianshu: "Oh."

He fell asleep in his arms. Chu Tianshu also put his chin on his shoulder and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, they sat in the living room on time, holding hands.

A white light flashed before his eyes, and when Lin Huai woke up again, the first thing he felt was the sound of water and the cool breeze.

He opened his eyes and realized that he was lying in an ancient-style study room. This study room seemed to have been transformed from the Huxin Pavilion, with windows on three sides, so the lake breeze blew in and touched his face.

Chu Tianshu woke up earlier than him and was looking around in the study. When he saw Lin Huai woke up, he pulled him up.

They also entered the game at the same time as white-collar women, thin men, mixed-race men, college men, doctor women, elite men and high school women. As time went by, they lay on the wooden floor and unfolded one by one.

Blinded.

Before all the players woke up, Lin Huai looked at the layout in the study. The layout in the study was simple and elegant. Apart from the tables, chairs and bookshelves, the most eye-catching thing was the scrolls hanging around.

Most of these scrolls feature flowers, plants, insects, birds, landscapes and people, as if they were painted by different famous artists. There are no curtains in the study, so the scrolls seem to have replaced the curtains. They are hung around, swaying gently with the lake breeze.

These decorations all indicate that the owner of the room is a person with extremely elegant interests. However, what attracts Lin Huai the most are the four blank scrolls hanging on the indoor walls.

These four scrolls are huge, one person tall and one person wide. There is a wooden desk in front of the wall, with a paperweight made of jade placed on it, which seems to be holding something down.

Just as Lin Huai was about to step forward, he heard that the players behind him had woken up.

"Where is this?"

The first one to start running around was the thin man. He opened the scroll, looked out the window, and sighed: "There is a lake around? Are we in a pavilion in the middle of the lake?"

"There are four boats over there." The cold-tempered mixed-race man crossed his arms and said, "They should be transportation."

"You still need to say something so obvious?"

The elite man who was also checking the window sneered. They seemed to know each other and had a long-standing suspicion between each other. The college man saw Chu Tianshu holding the letter with sharp eyes: "Hey, you, what is written on the paper?

"

"It's a letter." Chu Tianshu turned to Lin Huai, "The owner of Huxin Pavilion wrote us a letter."

Lin Huai came over to take a look.

The handwriting on the letter is graceful and graceful, like an iron painting with silver hooks.

Chu Tianshu patiently read the entire letter and said to everyone: "This letter is written by the owner of Huxin Pavilion. He claims to like collecting famous paintings from all over the world. This time he invited everyone to come to help him collect four paintings.

Paintings. These four paintings are by the hands of four peerless beauties, and they are painted plums, orchids, bamboos, and chrysanthemums."

"Four paintings?"

The thin man grabbed the letter. After reading it for a long time, he grinned his yellow teeth and began to curse: "Mom, it's all in classical Chinese, I can't even understand it!"

The elite man and the mixed-race man stretched out their hands at the same time: "Show me——"

After realizing that they had bumped into each other, the elite men made a "please" gesture.

The mixed-race man rolled his eyes. He picked up the paper and read it carefully: "The letter said that the four paintings were hidden in four villas. They were plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum villas. They took four small boats next to the lake pavilion.

You can get there. The boat can carry up to three people at a time. After obtaining the famous painting, you need to take the boat back to the Huxin Pavilion and then go to the next place. No one is allowed to stay in the Huxin Pavilion for more than three sticks of incense——"

Everyone looked at the incense burner on the table. One of the three incense sticks was already burning.

"Not allowed to stay? This is to break us up to carry out the mission." The elite man thought for a moment, "There are a total of...one, two, three...nine of us."

"Nine people? Then there are two people in each villa, and three people in one villa, which is just right." said the thin man.

The examiner's setting was to disperse and disrupt everyone. If Chu Tianshu hadn't unexpectedly joined, the eight players would have been divided into groups of two and carried out the same task. Therefore, everyone had no objection to what he said.

The mixed-race man continued: "Meizhuang is in the north, Lanzhuang is in the east, Zhuzhuang is in the south, and Juzhuang is in the west. In this case, we can divide ourselves into four groups, okay?"

"Okay." Chu Tianshu put his arm around Lin Huai's shoulders, "I'll team up with him."

Among the remaining seven people, the mixed-race man frowned and looked at everyone, as if he wanted to walk towards the high school girl, but the elite man stretched out his hand to him: "Are we in a group?"

The mixed-race man rolled his eyes: "Is there something wrong with you?"

"Although we hate each other, I believe in your strength." The elite man shrugged, "Don't you?"

The mixed-race man glared at him and said to the female white-collar worker: "We are a team."

Seeing his refusal, the elite man also turned to the doctor woman: "Together?"

After them, college boys and high school girls also formed a team. The thin man who was spitting shit turned out to be the only one to be pulled down. He rolled his eyes and looked at the one who looked the strongest in a flattering manner.

Chu Lin’s team: “Two brothers, take one of me?”

"Don't ask me, ask him." Chu Tianshu said lazily.

Lin Huai was suddenly thrown a pot. He thought for a moment and said, "Are you brave?"

"Big, of course it's big." The skinny man said with assurance, "Who can reach the mid-level venue without courage?"

"That's fine." Lin Huai said, "I'm afraid of scaring you."
