Chapter 109 Narrative Cage (VI)

I don't know if it was prison regulations or a coincidence, but the newspaper in Huiyu's hand did not have date-related information. Judging from her concentration, she probably won't be able to get any more clues.

Li Sheng took two steps back and went back to check the two single cells in the lower left corner and the lower right corner.

The cell door of the cell in the lower left corner was tightly closed, and the baffle for feeding food seemed to be welded shut, unable to be pushed no matter how hard it was pushed. Knocks on the door and calls went unanswered.

As for the cell in the lower right corner, the huddled figure with disheveled hair was also unresponsive to the outside world and kept mumbling to himself in the corner.

Li Sheng listened carefully and vaguely heard a rough and hoarse voice that could not be distinguished as male or female. He asked in a soft tone: "Are you good in school today? Did the teacher praise you?"

Then the man's tone changed and became cold, "You don't know that you are wrong, you just know that you are going to die."

Then the tone changed again, becoming calm and decisive, "The third turbolaser cannon on the port side deflected five degrees to the left!"

Finally he calmed down again and smiled happily.

"Are these inmates some kind of weirdo, mentally ill?"

Li Sheng looked confused outside the cell door. He could only sigh and turned towards the vending machine. "Split personality is too scary."

"Yeah, we think so too," said the voice in his head.

Coming to the vending machine, this machine has no wires and is powered by some unknown method. Behind the glass plate is a whole wall of snacks and drinks, priced from 1∑ to 5∑, and behind it are hair dryers, toothpaste and toothbrushes, bottle openers, rag dolls, shirts and pants and other daily necessities, priced from 20∑ to 70 ∑Not equal.

"This Σ symbol is probably some kind of legal currency in the universe. Speaking of which, what kind of merchant would open a vending machine in a prison? The prisoners have no money. Is it just for advertising?"

This hypothesis is not completely impossible. Just like in the real world, some down jackets, heaters, water heaters, and watches will sponsor Antarctic scientific expeditions. The act of placing advertisements in a special location is itself a kind of advertising.

There are two coin slots on the right side of the vending machine, one for paper bills and one for coins.

Li Sheng was not in a hurry to insert the coin, and reached out to fumble under the vending machine, but did not find the coin that the previous person had accidentally lost. Then he reached into the cargo port, hoping to pick up the accidentally dropped drink.

I didn't touch the drink, but I did find a newspaper.

There is only one article in the entire newspaper, titled [Food Poisoning Cases in Urban Schools], and the content is: "A mass food poisoning occurred among students at the No. 1 Public School in Colonial City, District A of Proxima yesterday afternoon. Many students and teachers had fever and vomiting. He was rushed to the hospital. It is reported that the incident may have been caused by expired cans of ant cow purchased in the cafeteria.

What follows is a long section of useless social commentary.

Another newspaper, also without information such as date and newspaper publisher.

Li Sheng raised his eyebrows, put away the newspaper, took off the Bone Corridor armband, and took out a metal box, which contained Song Dynasty Jiaozi, ancient Roman silver coins, modern U.S. dollars, Republic of China gold yuan coupons, food stamps and oil stamps, gold ingots and gold coins, etc. It represents the currency of different countries in different eras.

These funds are prepared to deal with script tasks with different backgrounds, and there are even tens of billions of Tiandi Bank ghost coins.

Unfortunately, all currencies, including gold coins, could not be inspected by the vending machine. He finally took out the "Chai Jing", tore out a page from it, folded and tore it into paper currency size, and put it into the coin slot. , was spit out anyway.

"Tsk."

Li Sheng smacked his lips, took out the stable super-heavy element particle called [Death-Death Salvation] from the backpack column, released the pistol, flicked the gun, and explored the hexagonal space.

The gun's description clearly states that pulling the trigger will launch a powerful stream of particles, but it can only be used once.

In puzzle games, they are the kind of prompt props with a limited number of times, which can be used to defeat cleverness.

It can open the vending machine and take away the goods inside. You can also directly break open the cell door and ask Huiyu for information. Or shoot at a seemingly impenetrable wall to see if you can escape directly over the wall.

These thoughts circulated in Li Sheng's mind and then dissipated on their own - the narrative cage was full of weirdness. Maybe Hui Yu's little lolita appearance was actually a female Titan who was ten meters tall and ten meters wide.

It’s still unclear who will intimidate whom at that time.

Half an hour later, Li Sheng returned to his original position. He pushed open the wooden doors at the end of the six corridors one by one. All the doors were unlocked and had the same design behind them——

A pressure-sensitive floor, and an alloy sliding door similar to a diving decompression chamber.

The jailbreaker needs to stand on the pressure-sensitive floor first, and then close the wooden door on the inside, and then the alloy sliding door will open, revealing the real space behind the door.

The purpose of this design is obvious, which is not to give the escapee the opportunity to regret and choose another room.

"So, now there's only one way left."

Li Sheng rubbed his palms and pushed open the wooden door of the reversal room. When there are too many gaps in the information, it would be okay to believe that Hui Yu, a relatively friendly NPC, would be fine. If not, he could still use the [Death Salvation] pistol to break through the wall and come back.

"唔唔↓唔唔↑"

He hummed the theme song from the American TV series "Prison Break" and stood on the pressure-sensitive floor, waiting patiently.

The alloy door slowly slid open to the right, and what appeared in front of Li Sheng was a rectangular room slightly smaller than a basketball court.

There are no beams or pillars in the room. Many metal rods with unknown functions hang from the ceiling. The end of each metal rod emits a faint light, acting as a light bulb. The surface of the long rods is printed with the advertising logo of the Pishuai brand.

These metal rods are concentrated at the entrance. The floor of the room below is a black and white square similar to chess. It is made of marble and has a side length of 1.5m*1.5m.

Ten tiles from left to right and ten tiles from back to front, a total of one hundred tiles are laid out in a square area.

Where the floor tiles disappear, that is, the light at the end of the room is particularly dim. You can vaguely see a thick and long cable hanging there, with a red button tied to the end of the cable. It is probably the control button mentioned in the mission target.

Buzz!

Li Sheng was observing, and the whole room was shaking inexplicably. He only felt that his hands, feet, and head were all heavier.

To be precise, the gravity increased. It increased from about 1G to 1.06g.

Not only that, the metal rods above the ceiling also lit up, shooting out hot lasers, weaving an airtight net at high altitude, and slowly descending over time.

Li Sheng pulled out the bat claw gun without hesitation and shot it at the floor tiles in the distance.

But the floor tiles were made of unknown material, and the claw gun was directly bounced off, and this action directly caused the gravity of the surrounding environment to increase sharply, and the laser net on the ceiling also dropped sharply for a distance, until he retracted the claw gun, and its descending rate returned to normal.
