Girls’ Dormitory Escape

"Fuck! Deliberately voted wrongly?" Zheng Wanqing slapped the table irritably: "They want us to freeze to death? Are they still human?"

After being irritable, she found that both roommates were silent. Tang Xinjue's eyes were quiet, as if he had expected it. On the other hand, Guo Guo's face was pale, and she didn't know if she was frozen or scared.

She gradually realized that something was wrong, "What did I say wrong?"

"Wuwu, you're right." Guo Guo wanted to cry, "Because it's obvious that they are really not human!"

Anyone who can vote here is either a student who is breaking through the level or an NPC. In the game, almost all the NPCs they encountered were Xiaohong, supermarket owners, and malicious existences like the student council.

Thinking with the back of their heads, I know they would rather see students freeze to death.

In hindsight, Zheng Wanqing felt a chill down her spine: "Then do we still have hope?"

The only clue to the mission is to play them like monkeys under the control of a group of NPCs. Isn't it possible to kill students at any time?

This time, Tang Xinjue's answer was also firm:

"Yes."

Even the current situation is one of the best in her judgment, second only to the fact that all the voters are normal candidates.

Roommate: "???"

Tang Xinjue did not hesitate: "In the worst case, the number of votes for the four options is almost the same, so no information can be drawn from the votes."

"As it is now, it can only represent that the majority of voters are NPCs, and NPCs are different from ordinary candidates in that they know a lot of test information that students don't know - such as which answer is most likely to be correct, Either answer must be wrong."

"Under these conditions, in order to make us die faster, there will be a kind of vote ratio - the wrong option gets the most votes, and the correct option gets the least votes."

Under Tang Xinjue's analysis, the roommate's eyes gradually lit up:

"In other words, [School Swamp] is definitely the wrong answer, and the [Lounge Room] with the lowest votes is the most likely correct!"

"That's right." Tang Xinjue nodded.

The NPC's malicious vote, one side is digging a hole, and the other side also allows the correct answer to surface without any effort.

The student union will only visit one location at a time, and the first time the survey will most likely fail. What they need to wait for is a second chance to vote.

"But," Guo Guo suddenly thought of a question: "Even if there is a second vote, there are still these NPCs among the voters, right? What if they deliberately vote for the wrong option?"

There is a huge disparity in the numbers of the two parties, don't they have to be led by the nose all the time.

"At that time, it's time to fight for initiative."

Tang Xinjue smiled. She wasn't too worried about voting. In contrast, the upcoming swamp inspection made her a stronger warning of danger.

The answer of "the birth of the monster in the wind and snow affects the heating", if a specific location is derived, then nine times out of ten, it is inseparable from the "monster".

They don't have direct contact in the bedroom, but Zhang You may face the danger.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the indoor temperature was minus 54 degrees.

The radio squeaked twice, and Lily appeared again: "Ding Dong~ Hello, students who are still alive, this is the site of the student union inspection."

You also know that the longer the time passes, the more casualties the candidates will suffer. We wish we could die sooner. The three looked indifferent.

"Wow, you can see from here that the entire swamp is covered by ice, like a huge black mirror. Hee hee, it's so beautiful..."

After being reminded by other reporters, Lily turned from the nonsense back to the topic: "Cough, then next. Please ask Sun, who gave this answer, to explore the swamp in person and report the results. report to us-"

"Wait, am I the only one who went there?" Another boy panicked, "It's too dark inside, and there's only ice on it, in case the ice breaks..."

"Student Sun, this is the answer you gave yourself, of course, you have to check the correctness by yourself." Lily replied intimately.

Seeing that the boy was still struggling, her voice suddenly became cold: "Of course, if you insist on not cooperating, we will have to use coercion."

After finishing speaking, there was a few seconds of confusion and screaming on the radio, and soon, Lily's voice covering her mouth and laughing sounded: "A small accident just happened, but now it's back to normal. Sun The classmate has now entered the inspection site, and now he is walking on the ice, we can hear his footsteps, oh, classmate Sun's legs are shaking slightly, it seems that he is not very confident in his answer..."

"Ah," she paused, with a strange excitement: "The ice is cracked!"

In the bedroom, everyone's expressions are not very good.

The student union should have tied the microphone to the boy, and from the radio, you can clearly hear everything happening on the swamp ice.

At first, only the boy's rapid breathing and the slow creaking of the ice surface came over, and then suddenly there was the sound of gurgling water and churning in the receiver.

How can there be the sound of water on the ice?

Tang Xinjue's eyes were gloomy: "Unless, something is swimming with people under the ice."

—still a behemoth big enough to pierce through the frozen swamp.

"click-click-"

As if several cracks suddenly appeared, the boy's footsteps froze.

"Yeah, the ice is cracked."

Then, in Lily's schadenfreude commentary, the footsteps suddenly became faster, as if the boy was running hurriedly on the ice, and behind him, the cracking sound of the ice surface continued to superimpose, The grunts were also getting louder.

Suddenly, the boy let out a scream, and then fell heavily on the ice, his body still trying to move forward.

"Boom!"

This is another sound of heavy objects falling on ice.

"Fizz-hiss-"

This is the sound of it sliding on the ice.

After four or five seconds, the boy's voice did not appear again, only the heavy friction and squirming of something left, and finally sank into the swamp again.

Tang Xinjue closed her eyes and took a deep breath to prevent nausea.

Soon she took out the toilet and swiped it on the desk!

Guo Guo and Zheng Wanqing, who were in pain and dazed, shook their bodies and woke up.

They just followed the sound of the radio, surrounded by the cold, sticky and immersive tension and pain, almost breathless, and their stomachs were churning. If it wasn't for being suddenly awakened by Tang Xinjue, I don't know how long it would take to indulge.

Zheng Wanqing stretched out her hand, and the blood on it quickly solidified at low temperature. She had just cut her hand unconsciously.

Guo Guo tried her best to swallow twice, but couldn't hold back, she bent down and retched.

[Dormitory member status] interface, except for Tang Xinjue, everyone has added different degrees of negative status. The most serious is Zhang You:

[mental damage: your health value -10, san value has been reduced]

[Looking at the troll: Immunity -5 Stamina -3 Reaction -3. Your physique has been greatly reduced, and the danger of the environment to you has increased. ]

You can get hurt even if you're not in direct contact with the monster, or even just receiving a message over the radio.

The decision must be made immediately, and the rhythm of the other party cannot be followed. Tang Xinjue made a decision in his heart.

The station continues.

Lily's voice was very satisfied, with a feeling of gluttony after a full meal: "It seems a pity that Sun's answer is not correct, and the heating process has not progressed. Zhang, do you think Woolen cloth?"

Not waiting for Zhang You to answer, she said to herself, "But it doesn't matter, let's see where the next place to visit is!"

"One, the power generation room; two, the water supply room; three, the lounge. The choice is in the hands of the students in front of the radio, then, the voting begins-"

The bell interrupted Lily's voice, she froze, "Who called the radio connection?"

After a rustling sound, Lily answered the call, and her voice revealed reluctance: "Hehe, it seems that the students responded positively to the radio station, let's see This time the caller is…”

"Hello."

In front of the radio, Tang Xinjue held the mobile phone with a calm tone.

“…” Lily wanted to hang up immediately.

There was another rustling, but she finally held back and asked with a smirk, "Hello, may I ask you to contact us suddenly because..."

"The situation is urgent." Tang Xinjue interrupted her, "I just found out that there is an abnormal situation in the restroom of the heating staff, which may be the truth to solve the heating problem."

"Is that so—" Lily stretched her tone, "But the inspection site can only be selected by voting, so it's a pity..."

"But isn't the purpose of the student union today to solve the heating problem?" Tang Xinjue interrupted her again, but her tone was not impatient or impatient: "Logically speaking, it should be the process that serves the result."

Lily: ...she is a reporter now, she is not angry, bear it!

"Haha." There was a sneer on the phone, "But how do you prove that what you said must be correct? Where is your analysis basis?"

"Someone gave me a dream." Tang Xinjue did not hesitate.

"I have a friend named Xiaohong, and we have a very good relationship. She happened to know something about this heating, so she just gave me a dream and told me that the key to the solution lies in the lounge. As we all know , good friends don't lie, so this answer must be correct."

Student Council: “…”

The roommate who watched her face unchanged the whole time: "…"

Lily resisted the urge to swear: "This reason doesn't seem to be very credible."

Wait, the student union reporter named Xiao Ming suddenly interjected: "I seem to remember a classmate like Xiaohong..."

Lily screams: "Shut up!"

"Of course, I also firmly support fair decision-making. If anyone has other suggestions, they can also report it by calling. I don't mind the live debate. For students who don't know how to contact the radio station, You are also welcome to call 7543…”

Without time to stop, Lily could only watch Tang Xinjue report the radio number in one go.

"After all, if I'm the only one calling and the others only need to send text messages, I can't judge the identity of the voter. If someone steals dozens of mobile phones to vote, it's unfair, isn't it? ? After all—our [mission] is the same."

The emphasis was on the last sentence, without giving the other party a chance to refute, Tang Xinjue directly hung up the phone.

She is betting that those NPCs can only fish in troubled waters by voting, and cannot directly interfere with the exam content - but real students can.

At the same time, it is also the balance of the rules of the gambling game - even the student union must be restricted and suppressed at some level. For example, unsolicited calls from students cannot be denied.

For another example, the completion of the heating task cannot be hindered by refusing reasonable requests.

They deliberately blurred this down, but Tang Xinjue would not ignore it. The remarks just now were not to the student council, but to test the rules of the game that might be covered in some way.

On the radio, the student council fell into a long silence.

After a while, Xiao Ming said: "We still need to discuss this issue to determine whether it is more conducive to finding the heating progress. Please wait another hour, thank you."

Tang Xinjue knew that she was right.

Only when the pain point is caught and there is nothing to do, the other party can only use the right to delay time to maximize their losses.

It's best that they all freeze to death during this time, so that the student union can follow the original process.

Seeing that the radio station was about to pause again, the connection bell suddenly rang again.

Lily finally couldn't bear the scream from a distance: "There is no end! Hit you&*%$##@…"

Xiao Ming: "Sorry, the reporter's mood is a little out of control now, classmate Tang, is there anything else?"

In front of the radio, Tang Xinjue raised her eyebrows.

She is sitting here right now, not calling at all.

The next second, a strange girl's voice sounded on the radio: "Hello. I'm not classmate Tang, my surname is Liu. I'm calling to support classmate Tang's suggestion. I also think, The next inspection site should be the heating staff lounge."

Xiao Ming: "...Okay, we will remember your opinion, bye."

Hang up the phone, without even a half-second pause, the bell suddenly rang again.

"I also support their opinions." This time, it was a simple and honest male voice: "By the way, can the student union provide us with some hot water bottles and warm equipment? It's really not good, you can also burn a pot of wood to the door. , after all, what are you, serving students..."

Student Council: “…”

An hour passed quickly in the endless phone calls, they didn't even have time to say the end, they were overwhelmed by the new call connection.

Even Guo Guo and Zheng Wanqing also participated in the call team. When they heard that the students would be deflated, they temporarily forgot the pain of freezing, and heaved a sigh of relief.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the phone connection was finally suspended. Xiao Ming couldn't wait to turn the microphone over to Lily, "After discussion, we decided to adopt Tang's suggestion and go directly to the heating staff's lounge for this field trip!"

"Fortunately, the lounge was right next to the school swamp, so we got here pretty quickly."

Lily tried her best to regain her professional smirk: "You can see that there is no light in the lounge, and the windows are dark. It's strange, isn't the staff in there?"

"Next, please invite Zhang You to enter and find out the truth for us!"
