Infinite Escape Room: No Parkour

Chapter 8

Shi Yu and Ying Zhuo ignored Hu Fang, who was rolling on the ground, and they stretched their legs and stood in front of the closet.

There are a lot of clothes in the closet, densely piled together. They have to take all the clothes down and start looking for the red checkered school uniform mentioned by Li Sirui.

Shi Yi rummaged around and finally found out the school uniform with "Seventeenth Middle School" printed in the mess of clothes. In this closet, she also found a black leather ball, which should have been bought by Li Sirui's father.

When Shi Yu picked it up, she felt that she had touched some sticky liquid on the ball. The amount was not much. Judging with the flashlight of the watch, it seemed to be black ink.

"There are words on this ball," she said.

"How do you read at this? The ball is black, and the words are also black." Leng Xinyu asked.

"Simple, you just tear a piece of paper on the desk," Shi Yu said, and took the paper that Leng Xinyu had handed over as required, and then pressed it at the ball.

Although the characters are rubbed mirror characters, they are easy to understand, with only a simple sentence.

[Dad, let's play ball.]

"Fuck, I can't stand it anymore, I have to go!" Hu Fang got up from the ground and rushed to the bedroom door.

Shi Yu reminded him indifferently: "Dad is patrolling outside. If you want to get your head open, just go out."

Hu Fang seemed to have been pressed with the "pause button" and stopped at the door motionless. Some people were calm under extreme panic, and Hu Fang calmed down, just wailing and crying helplessly.

Shi Yu didn't bother to pay attention to him and began to figure out the meaning of the sentence on the ball.

This sentence is very easy to understand. Shi Yu held the ball in her hand and placed it vertically downwards, and began to pat it "Bang Bang Bang".

The ball slammed on the floor with a sound similar to a heartbeat. Everyone watched Shi Yu intently as she repeatedly slammed the ball. There's a sense of indifference and innocence coming from her, not fitting to their current situation.

It seemed that the place she was in wasn't a murder scene full of evil and murderous ghosts, but like an elf strolling in the garden in the dark forest.

Shi Yu: "Li Sirui, let's play with the ball together."

"..." Leng Xinyu and Hu Fang.

Mom, she's so scary.

Shi Yu didn't know how but suddenly, the ball seems like it lost elasticity, and finally, it rolled under the bed.

The voice of the little boy came again.

"My ball rolled to the bottom of the bed, can you pick it out for me?"

"I'm choosing you." Shi Yu turned to Hu Fang.

Hu Fang shook his head like a rattle: "I'm not going!"

He didn't want to go. There must be something very important and scary under this bed.

Ying Zhuo squatted beside Shi Yu, and said sideways, "Shall I go with you?"

When there's no rejection, it means accepting.

Ying Zhuo bent his body and crawled under the bed. His body is without a trace of fat, which outlines an excessively charming line under the wrapping of his clothes. If an overly handsome man has courage, he can basically be marked with full marks.

Leng Xinyu blushed, standing next to Ying Zhuo, and said concerned: "Be careful."

The two of them got under the bedboard a little bit when Shi Yu suddenly felt cold all over her body. There was no wind around, and the temperature didn't drop. But it inexplicably makes their bones chill.

"This is resentment." Ying Zhuo said. "Cold grievances."

Shi Yu raised her eyebrows: "You know this metaphysics well."

"I understand a little," he replied.

Shi Yu used her watch to scan and found the ball not far away. When she reached out to take it, there was a pale boy's hand on the back of her hand out of thin air.

Lifting her head, she saw the child squatting in front of her. One person and one ghost, two hands together.

Shi Yu felt that her hands were extremely cold, like a freeze-dried fish, and the back of her hand instantly numb when touched by it, and she lost her ability to control herself.

Ying Zhuo suddenly stretched out his hand, not knowing what decision he had made, he touched the back of the ghost baby's hand with his index finger.

The ghost baby suddenly yelled and released Shi Yu's hand.

At the moment when the ghost baby's hand was released, Shi Yu felt her right hand regain consciousness, and she watched the ghost baby cowering in the corner. Resentment lingered in the eye sockets without eyeballs of the ghost, staring at Ying Zhuo fiercely.

This is the first time Shi Yu knows that ghosts also have expressions.

Ying Zhuo said: "This sister is here to help you. Don't harm her."

The little boy didn't speak, but just stepped back and disappeared into the wall.

Shi Yu looked at him(Ying Zhuo) curiously: "You know the art of the mysterious Xuanhuan?"

"The technique of Xuanhuan?" Ying Zhuo was taken aback for a moment, as if he was understanding the meaning of the word, he smiled clearly: "That's it."

"What did it do to me just now?" Shi Yu asked again.

"In short, it's called the Jiēguǎn(taking over)."

This word, Shi Yu can understand: "It means that if I have been touched by it for a long time, my body will be possessed by it?"

"Yes." Ying Zhuo nodded.

"Will there be any consequences after being possessed?"

"Not necessarily. It depends on the ghost's own wishes. If it doesn't want to, it may never go out. Some ghost just wants to play and will get out of the body after a while, but it hurts the host a lot."

Shi Yu stuck out her tongue and seemed to owe Ying Zhuo a big favor. Ying Zhuo seemed to hear her inner voice, and said solemnly: "You don't have to thank me too much, Xiaoyu."

Wait, small fish?

Shi Yu realized that it seemed to be her codename. Sounds so embarrassing.

Ying Zhuo can protect people, and the addition of a nanny in the team makes people feel very at ease. Shi Yu picked up the ball and saw a key pressed underneath, it should be the key to the kitchen.

They will get the wine from the kitchen and get daddy drunk so that they can move on to the next step. When Ying Zhuo was about to go out under the bed, he was suddenly stopped by Shi Yu.

"Wait a moment."

The people outside didn't know what was going on inside, and asked anxiously outside the bed: "What's wrong?"

When Shi Yu swept the watch light in her hand, she swept across the top of the bed, and she saw a mess of words written in red crayon.

[I feel so painful.]

I feel so painful.

These shocking words, from the strength in writing these words, they can see how hard the child is feeling when writing this down.

Shi Yu frowned: "It seems that the father of this family is really aggressive. Every time he drank, he beat his child madly, and the child would hide under the bed."

As mentioned in the previous notes, a very terrible nightmare happened in this family on a certain day.

What day is it? What happened?

Shi Yu got out of the bed, looking at the key, feeling a little uneasy: "Dad will go crazy every time he finishes drinking. If we give Dad wine, won't it make Dad go into a berserk state? Becoming more lethal?"

Ying Ying nodded: "Let's not rule out such a possibility."

"We should still bring the wine over first, right?" Leng Xinyu suggested.

"I'm going to attract Dad's attention. You take the key to open the kitchen door and get things." Shi Yu handed the key to Ying Zhuo, and then said to Leng Xinyu and Hu Fang. "You two remember to guard the door, and when we got the wine and ran back, we closed the door together and blocked Dad outside."

"Good, good." Hu Fang and Leng Xin nodded.

For Hu Fang, Shi Yu was very worried. After all, in the first game, this guy killed an innocent person to prove whether the game would really kill them.

However, Shi Yu saw that Leng Xinyu's eyes were slightly darkened, and when she spoke, she was very stiff and dry, which looked weird.

Could it be...

Shi Yu smiled, exchanged glances with Ying Zhuo, opened the bedroom door, and walked out.

The father happened to be standing in the living room and didn't see the moment when they came out. Shi Yu touched the wall and walked to the corner of the "T", and hit the father in the opposite direction.

The father was wearing a black nightgown, with its collar loosely opened, revealing the same purple skin as its own son.

Although it has no eyes, it can "see" Shi Yu, it brandished the baseball bat and rushed towards Shi Yu. Shi Yu bent over and rolled gently on the ground and then rolled behind the sofa.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ying Zhuo standing at the door of the kitchen trying to open the door.

"This isn't the key to the kitchen." He said.

Shi Yu looked up and saw the father standing in front of the sofa, stabbing the sofa with a baseball bat. She lifted up the sofa leg and threw it on the father's face, yelling: "Try the parents' bedroom room!"

"Right." Ying Zhuo's voice came.

Shi Yu breathed a sigh of relief, stretched her legs on the sofa, leaped forward after avoiding the bat the father was waving, and reached out to grab the hanging lamp from the ceiling and swing herself in the air. With a strong pull, she "dumped" herself into the bedroom area.

Ying Zhuo was standing at the door of the parent's bedroom, waiting for Shi Yu. When Shiyu came over, he especially left the door slightly open for Shi Yu to come in to avoid the father's chase.

Shi Yu had just stepped into the bedroom with her front foot, and when she looked up and saw the children's bedroom opposite, Leng Xinyu suddenly took advantage of Hu Fang's unpreparedness, raised her foot, and kicked Hu Fang's back fiercely.

Hu Fang didn't have any defense against Leng Xinyu and fell like dog shit. The father finally caught a single person and turned the bat to Hu Fang's head.

Shi Yu stretched out her hand and grabbed Hu Fang's hair casually. Withstanding Hu Fang's struggle, she dragged him into the parents' bedroom.

The bat fell to the ground as the floor buzzed.

Hu Fang was dragged to the parents' bedroom across the corridor of the children's room. When he reacted, he saw "Leng Xinyu" with a gloomy and weird smile on her face, and she closed the door of the child's room with a "bang".
