Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Loko Apartments.

He was slightly absent-minded.

The anchor became quiet, but the indistinct sound of music and laughter from the business district outside made it not completely silent in the live broadcast room. The audience didn't care either, they looked at the action of the female tasker on the screen of the live broadcast room.

Her name is Jiang Shuangmei, and she has a younger sister named Jiang Shuangmei. They are twins.

Many years ago, probably when the pair of sisters first came to Narrow Building, they found each other by virtue of a tacit understanding and intuition unique to twins that cannot be explained by science.

Since then, they have never been separated.

In the narrow building, it is difficult for other people to trust each other and rely on each other like them. Although... such a close relationship does not seem to bring much luck to their nightmare journey.

They cycled back and forth between the ground floor of the narrow building and the slightly higher floors. Every time I went to a higher floor with joy, I had a bad ending soon after and had to return to the bottom of the narrow building.

Many taskers have the same fate as them, so they, like so many taskers, are unwilling to be reconciled to their own mediocrity and the accidental true ending that comes from a flash of inspiration.

They keep falling into nightmares, hoping to prove themselves...or, hoping to be realized, to go to higher and higher floors.

True, average, average, bad, bad, true, average, bad...

It's like a magic spell that repeats itself.

So one day, when they returned to the bottom floor of the narrow building, Jiang Shuangmei said to her elder sister, "Sister, can we stop for a while?"

The tacit understanding between the twins allowed Sister Jiang to understand what her younger sister was proposing.

She is tired. She didn't want to enter the nightmare again, at least not at that time.

So, they stopped for several years.

That was the period when Xu Beijin's name was heard like thunder among the workers at the bottom of the narrow building. The two tired sisters didn't take part in the lively events at that time at all. They went to the lively markets, bars, and carnival nights that the fallen missionaries would go to.

While some missionaries are struggling to survive the nightmare, they and other missionaries indulge in laughter, indulgence and self-deprecation. They stopped thinking about the nightmares, or the vexing question of what the Narrows was, what it was like outside, whether they could get out of the Narrows.

Only the wine that was brought to his lips, and those frantic and sensual nights, seemed extraordinarily real.

It was like a sweet dream, and the sweet dream will eventually wake up.

During these days, there have been some changes in the narrow building, and many people's minds have become active.

It might be a half-truth and half-false message passed down from a higher floor, just like the trick card that no one knows if it really exists and can be used to retreat from nightmares.

Or maybe it's just some old rumors, mixed with the chaotic rumors in the nightmare, and it becomes even more unclear.

In short, even Jiang Shuangmei, Jiang Shuangmei, heard someone say in some carnival occasions—say, that those with missions successfully escaped from the narrow building.

Really? But since he has already escaped, why is there still news?

fake? But... just like they believe that the nightmare of eternal collapse does not represent death, they have to believe this rumor.

As a result, even some taskers who have been depraved for a long time have climbed up from the world of alcohol and other things that fool their minds, washed and cleaned their brains, and are gearing up to go to higher floors. after all.

Jiang Shuangmei Jiang Shuangmei is no exception.

They even acted earlier than other taskers. They heard rumors that the "billionaire" had made it to a higher floor, and they couldn't wait to get into action the next night.

They knew Ding Yi. To be precise, they used to hold a group with Ding Yi back then. It is always easier for the three girls to trust each other.

And later, when Ding Yi excitedly shared with them the item card she drew from the nightmare settlement pool, the three began to part ways tacitly.

Afterwards, Ding Yi comfortably became her billionaire on the bottom floor of the narrow building, while Jiang Shuangmei Jiang Shuangmei continued to walk back and forth between the bottom floor and the slightly higher floors. A little later, after they stopped, they even took the wine glass from Ding Yi's hand with their own hands.

But the blue-haired woman and the twin sisters pretended not to recognize each other.

Now, Ding Yi went to a higher floor. And the pair of sisters walked out of the house together on the second night in tacit agreement without anyone saying anything clearly.

It's been a long time since they've had a nightmare, but some basic skills are still there. At this time, Sister Jiang started searching in this apartment.

After a few minutes, she stood still, frowning again.

Nothing at all.

Rather than saying that this apartment is a room that is actually inhabited, it is better to say that it is an empty dàngdàng hotel. Indeed, there are daily necessities, but there are no traces of use.

There were no clothes in the closet, no food in the refrigerator, and not even any hair or scraps of paper in the bathroom. All the rooms are empty and frighteningly clean.
