Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

Isumi Chuan woke up? !

The two released their hands like an electric shock in an instant, and turned around at the same time with a high degree of tacit understanding, not looking at each other.

Xu Rendong coughed and said as calmly as possible: "You're awake."

Ishi Jianchuan said with a smile: "Yeah. Guess how long I've been awake?"

This sentence made Xu Rendong, who pretended to be calm, instantly break his skills, and his face was instantly stained with two flushes. He picked up the teacup on the table embarrassedly and used tea to ease his shame, but accidentally caught a glimpse of Lian Qiao's frown.

Xu Rendong was surprised. I saw Lian Qiao turned his head and glanced outside the door, and said abruptly: "The sound outside has stopped."

A voice outside?

Xu Rendong listened carefully. Sure enough, the screams that originally filled the corridor had been silenced at some point. Those people are afraid that they are already more fortunate. Just what does even Joe mention this for now?

Ishi Jianchuan bit his lip and smiled: "So what?"

"I'm sorry, I beat you up just now." Lian Qiao pouted, "But you have to blame yourself, you accidentally got a curse, and sent it to our Honeysuckle University. On the head of the boss. You also know that our boss is a violent temper... Anyway, I'm sorry. Since you're fine, we'll go first."

Speaking, he cast a glance at Xu Rendong calmly.

Ishi Jianchuan was still smiling, but a playful look gradually appeared in his eyes. He didn't speak, didn't make any movement, just leaned on the bedpost with a smile and looked at their backs.

However, when Xu Rendong was about to open the door, Lian Qiao suddenly grabbed his hand: "Be careful!"

Xu Rendong was startled, and suddenly heard two "hiss" in his ears. Looking closely, only then did he realize that in the shadow on the carved window pane was a small snake. The snake was completely white, and a pair of dark round eyes stared at him coldly. If Lian Qiao hadn't reminded him in time, his hand would have just fallen into Shekou!

Pop. Behind him, Ishi Jianchuan suddenly opened the folding fan and shook it slowly.

He sighed. Lazy and funny, he repeated the sentence just now: "Guess how long have I been awake? How many things have I heard?"

Xu Rendong was stunned, and at this time finally understood the meaning of Ishigami's words.

Nine series, he heard everything!

Xu Rendong's mind flashed in an instant. He quickly thought: the two rings are on them, and the most crucial ring handle is also on them. Since Iwami Chuan already knew about the existence of the Nine Links, he was bound to compete with them for the only chance of survival.

But they can't beat Iwami!

Not to mention that even Joe is injured, even if both of them are in the best condition, there is no chance of winning against the fantastic and treacherous white snake in Shangshi Jianchuan! Iwami Chuan is too strong, it is impossible for them to confront him head-on.

So what?

There is only one chance of survival, and it is impossible for Iwami Chuan to give up. What if he's going to grab it? Are there any other cards to negotiate? Is there any other way...

My heart is getting more and more anxious. Because Xu Rendong found out that he really had no choice.

Iwami Chuan didn't need to work with them at all. He is strong enough and smart enough that he can easily pass the level without a partner.

This is the strength of the real Jiuguan boss.

Compared with him, the two of them are just kindergarten children!

Xu Rendong's heart sank little by little. He even gave up on himself and thought: or simply do it all over again. Now that Ishigami knows this, it is impossible for them to survive... they simply die and start over...

At this moment, he suddenly heard, Lian Qiao took a deep breath.

Inexplicably, Xu Rendong calmed down. He felt that Lian Qiao must have thought of a solution. This gave him a strong sense of security.

He turned his head to look at Lian Qiao, and saw that Lian Qiao looked calm, neither humble nor arrogant: "You can't pass the customs alone."

He said it with great certainty, as if stating a law of physics.

Ishi Jianchuan leaned against the bedpost, still looking lazy and idle, but there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "Oh?"

"Because..." Lian Qiao paused, his voice low, "...there is a ring that I hid."

Ishimi was taken aback. Xu Rendong was also stunned, his eyes suddenly widened.

Lian Qiao hid a ring from him? When did this happen?

Then he took the initiative to hand over the ring and the ring handle just now...what is it?

Lian Qiao ignored the shock of the two and continued to say calmly: "I felt that the lantern was not right when I went upstairs just now. The lantern at the entrance of the stairs, the halo of the candle inside is obviously different from other lanterns. Same. I climbed up and looked and saw that this candle was special and might be useful. Just in case I hid one...he didn't even tell."

Lian Qiao glanced at Xu Rendong quickly. Xu Rendong felt a heavy blow in his heart, and his chest was suddenly so tight that he could hardly breathe.

"Then you..." Xu Rendong said with difficulty, word by word, "You just..."

Ishi Jianchuan suddenly sneered: "So that tender love just now was a lie. He was lying to you and guarding you."

Xu Rendong's complexion changed, and his eyes shot sharply at Shi Jianchuan.

"I don't need you to intervene." Xu Rendong said coldly.

Unexpectedly, even Joe did not deny it. He even lowered his head slightly, sighed very lightly, "If it wasn't for you, he shouldn't have known this. After all, I really like him."

He sighed softly and regretfully. But Xu Rendong's heart was cut into pieces by the gentle knife.

Ishi Jianchuan looked at Xu Rendong biting his lips and enduring the pain, and seemed to find it very interesting.

Qi Jiu Lianhuan, no one can get out. Unless..." He waved his folding fan leisurely, with a cruel pleasure in the smile on his lips, "Unless, you have decided to kill him before he is ready, and put the ring Take them all back. That way you can live alone. And he doesn't know that you betrayed him until he dies."

Even Joe did not speak.

Xu Rendong's heart is ashes, but she doesn't want to show pain to others. Therefore, he said to Shi Jianchuan indifferently: "You don't need to worry about me and him. If you want to grab the ring, just grab it directly. What are you doing talking so much nonsense?"

Lian Qiao suddenly stepped forward, blocking between him and Ishijian.

"I have a way to keep us all alive."

Xu Rendong suddenly had a glimmer of hope in her heart. Is there any way? Is there any way to keep all three alive?

Lian Qiao said: "After I find the elevator, I will use the fastest speed to put together the nine chains. During this period, you protect me from outside interference. This way We can escape together."

Iwami Chuan laughed: "Not to mention why I gave you the nine rings... If the nine rings are on you, then I will be affected by the curse. At that time I will even myself If you can’t do it, how can it be possible to protect you?”

"You can." Lian Qiao picked up the backpack on the table and took out something from the dark compartment, "Because I will give you this."

When the two of them saw the thing in his hand clearly, their expressions changed.

It was a-doll!

After killing the key players, imprison the other party's soul and become a stand-in doll!

Iwami Chuan glanced at the doll, thoughtfully. Soon he laughed again: "You still have this."

Lian Qiao said: "Since you recognize it, you should know what it is for. After you are cursed, as long as you die casually, when you resurrect, all the curses on your body will be lifted."

"Humph..." Ishigami lowered his eyes and tapped the back of his hand with the handle of the folding fan, as if he was considering, "Just die, you say it easily..."

He was sarcastic, but did not reject it.

Because, even Joe's plan is feasible and the only way.

Although Iwami Chuan was forced to die, if he refused to cooperate, he might never find the ring hidden by Lian Qiao. That would be a lose-lose result.

According to Lian Qiao's proposal, although Iwami Chuan suffered a loss, there was still a chance of survival.

He was taken by Lian Qiao.

It's just...so...

Ishi Jianchuan suddenly raised his folding fan and pointed at Xu Rendong: "What about him? In your plan, he will surely die."

Xu Rendong was suffocated. He couldn't think anymore, he could only stare at Lian Qiao blankly, waiting for his answer.

However, even Joe was silent.

In this silence, Xu Rendong's heart sank little by little.

Finally, Lian Qiao whispered: "This copy is too difficult. Being able to survive two is the limit of what I can do. I can't keep the third person."

Xu Rendong smiled wryly.

Sure enough, the "we" that Lian Qiao said did not include him.

He never thought that Lian Qiao would have such a deep scheming. He never thought that there would be such a day, when even Joe said "we", he did not count him.

And a moment ago, just a few minutes ago, they were still hugging each other tightly.

He really thought that Lian Qiao gave him all the rings and gave him the only chance of survival. He even lost his temper because of Lian Jo's childish self-sacrifice. He thought that even Joe was so stupid...

It turned out to be a lie. It turned out that when Lian Qiao was holding him and kissing him, he had already decided to kill him.

It was himself who was stupid.

…

Xu Rendong doesn't want to listen to the negotiations between Lian Qiao and Ishi Jianchuan. He suddenly felt very tired, so he dropped the ring and the handle and left here.

Iwami Chuan and even Joe didn't stop him. Presumably for them, he was useless.

He went back to his room and fell asleep.

He was so tired that he never rested after entering this instance. The scalp was numb, and the back of the head felt a dull pain as if being smashed with a hammer.

He was terribly miserable, but he couldn't really sleep. When he was half asleep, he heard a creak and the door was pushed open. He was too lazy to open his eyes. Then the bed sank slightly. Someone sat down beside the bed.

"Honeysuckle." Undoubtedly it was Lian Qiao's voice, "If I said, I didn't hide the ring on purpose to hide it from you, it was just too late to tell you, would you believe it?"

Xu Rendong knew that pretending to be asleep could not hide him, so she had to open her eyes. His eyes were dry and tingling, making him want to drop some eye drops.

Lian Qiao took out the ring and the ring handle, put it in his hand, and asked carefully: "Do you know the solution to the nine-chain?"

Xu Rendong rubbed her eyes, thinking in her heart: It would be great if there were eye drops. I really want eye drops.

Lian Qiao was silent for a moment, then took out his mobile phone, opened an interface, and held it in front of him: "This is the solution formula. You must memorize it, figure out the steps in your heart, and do the movements on your hands. Quick. Time will be tight by then."

He said it strangely. He is the one who wants to cooperate with Ishi Jianchuan. What does Xu Rendong do with this solution?

It was as if he wanted to give Xu Rendong the chance to live again.

Xu Rendong doesn't want to guess the truth in his words. Just a little curious, but not so curious, and asked casually: "Who did you kill? When?"

Lian Qiao was stunned for a moment: "What?...Who killed what?"

Xu Rendong calmly said: "It's time for this, is it still necessary to act? Zhong Xiu reminded me a long time ago, since you know about the 'key player', how could you possibly treat the puppets? I don't know... She wants me to be careful about you, but I don't. Until now."

At that time, Xu Rendong said firmly: even if he hides something from me, I will trust him until the day he really betrays me.

Now, that day has come.

Xu Rendong finally understands that there are things in the world that are far more painful than death.

Lian Qiao was extremely shocked: "What did she tell you? ... What is the 'key player'? I really don't know. I only know that this doll can save lives, Zhong Xiu told me ..." Lian Qiao suddenly became at a loss, and his expression became flustered, "Yes, in the last copy, you fell asleep at night, and I saw Zhong Xiu secretly stuffing this thing on you. I was worried that she would harm you, so I followed She had a fight. She told me the purpose of the doll... But I still didn't believe her, so I hid the doll while she was asleep..."

Xu Rendong finally got a little moved on her face. But he was moved not because of Lian Qiao's explanation, but because he heard about Zhong Xiu.

His mother.

"Later I found out that she is your mother, she can't harm you...I dare not tell you that I quarreled with your mother, after all she is dead...so I have never had a problem with the doll Say..." Lian Qiao suddenly remembered something, and pointed to the backpack, "But the doll is always in the backpack, always on you! It was left to you by your mother, I never thought of using it to protect myself! I I said that just now, really just to deceive Ishigami!"

He grabbed the ring on the bed, thrust it into Xu Rendong's hand, and then held Xu Rendong's hand tightly with both hands.

"Can you trust me once? I really have no choice..." Lian Qiao whispered in despair, "I lied, but I lied to him! I didn't lie to you Do you trust me? I'll take you to get the ring I hid, and then you'll find another place to hide. That way you can…”

So, he really hid one.

retreat.

I am so moved.

If it wasn't for Ishigami to see through him, I'm afraid he would have to wait until he died once before discovering his betrayal. After being reborn, I don't know how to face the "lovely" him.

That's really, really sad.

Xu Rendong interrupted him calmly: "No need."

He took his hand out of Lian Qiao's hand little by little, his tone was so calm that even he was surprised: "Did you forget what I said? I don't need a round Ring. I won't be affected by the curse, so you can play Jiulianhuan with confidence and leave me alone."

Even Joe was stunned.

Xu Rendong said: "You can do whatever you want, I don't want to worry about it anymore. I'm so tired, I just want to sleep now. Would you let me sleep okay?"

Lian Qiao still looked at him blankly, as if he could not understand what he said.

Xu Rendong saw that he did not leave, so he had to get up from the bed: "Forget it. You are inconvenient, this room is for you. I will find another place." He stood up and turned his head Go to the door.

Lian Qiao suddenly lost control and rushed over to hug him.

"Don't go!" Lian Qiao hugged his waist tightly, her eyes were red, her voice was choked, and every word was like weeping blood, "Don't you... don't you want me to commit suicide in front of you... Will you believe me?"

"It's not necessary." Xu Rendong opened his fingers little by little, and said without looking back, "I can't get out even if you die. I can't find the elevator."

"Then I—" Lian Qiao refused to let go, but held on to him even more stubbornly, "I'll come to you when I find the elevator! When we go out together, let's sit down, and then take a good... Talk about it."

Talk about it…

Xu Rendong suddenly thought of their living room. He recalled the fabric sofa that was so soft that it dented deeply, the small wall lamp that was warm and sleepy, the two cups of tea steaming slightly on his lap, the memory of being in another person On the clothes, on the hair, on the neck, on the earlobes, the familiar and reassuring smell can be smelled.

But all this tenderness turned into a ridiculous lie when even Joe decided to betray him.

He felt so tired and tired that he couldn't even stop thinking about it.

Speaking of which, after entering this dungeon, it seems that I haven’t slept for four or five days. No wonder it's so tiring.

He suddenly felt wronged, his eyes turned red, and he almost pleaded: "I just want to sleep. Why don't you even let me sleep? I just want to sleep well. For a while... can you let me go?"

Lian Qiao was shocked and finally let go.

Xu Rendong didn't have the strength to look back at him. Just stumbled away.
