Chapter 863: 433, Mr. Clown
“That guy, so arrogant all day, I can’t stand him.”
“Alright, enough talk, hurry up and finish the task so we can report back.”
The two n in black exerted force simultaneously, and Lin Mo’s body began to move slowly. However, just as Lin Mo turned face-up, his eyes, which had been tightly shut with a strange clown makeup, suddenly snapped open. The corners of his grotesque mouth wound curled up slightly, revealing a chilling smile as he teasingly said, “So, good evening, gentlen, welco to the Clown Night Project. And your roles will be… corpses.”
In the contestant dormitory of Arica’s “Perfect Escape,” the first rays of sunlight quietly stread in, and the clock pointed to 7 a.m. In room 308, the primary school student Kudo slowly opened his eyes, consciousness accompanied by a wave of crashing pain like the sea, causing him to frown slightly.
“Emmmmm…” The primary school student Kudo gently rubbed his unbearably aching head with his hand, as if trying to dispel the fog enveloping his mind. His gaze began to survey the familiar surroundings, and his vision gradually shifted from blurry to clear.
He saw Lin Mo lying flat on the bed beside him, and the surrounding dormitory layout remained as familiar as ever, everything looked exactly the sa as last night, as if nothing had happened. However, the expression on primary school student Kudo’s face inadvertently turned pale, his expression transford from initial confusion to deep perplexity.
The scenes before amnesia flashed through his mind like a movie reel. “Last night… I drank a glass of water, and then… then I fell asleep on the table….” He silently recalled in his heart, “But… now why am I… lying on the bed properly? What exactly happened during this process?!”
With years of accumulated detective experience, the primary school student Kudo quickly cald himself down. He endured the throbbing pain from his brain and began to carefully analyze the situation in front of him. Soon, he arrived at what he considered the most reasonable conclusion, which is that the production team of “Perfect Escape” planned to eliminate him and Lin Mo yesterday. In his view, this is currently the most plausible reason to explain everything.
“No, wait!” Suddenly, a silver bolt of lightning flashed across the primary school student Kudo’s mind, and he instantly realized an inexplicable part. If he indeed lost consciousness, according to the show’s previous elimination practice, by now the two of them should have been eliminated and sent out of the estate. Because without exception, all previously eliminated contestants had already left the estate, and the primary school student Kudo could be very certain that at this mont, they were still in the contestant dormitory of “Perfect Escape.”
So, he lost consciousness, and Lin Mo also drank that problematic water, but they were not eliminated. This truly was extraordinary and unbelievably strange.
“What on earth happened?” The primary school student Kudo was filled with doubt, straining his mind but unable to co up with a reasonable answer. However, this was a question he had to uncover.
After pondering for a mont, the primary school student Kudo made a decision. He gently walked to Lin Mo’s side and softly called out, “Mr. Clown… it’s ti to get up….” Seeing no response from Lin Mo, he raised his voice a little, “Mr. Clown….” “Mr. Clown….”
Called three tis in succession, Lin Mo abruptly opened his eyes, staring directly at the primary school student Kudo with a look that seed to pierce through all the world’s sins.
“Cough….” The primary school student Kudo was taken aback by this sudden glare, instinctively stepping back several paces.
“Did I scare you? I’m sorry.” Lin Mo casually apologized, then directly jumped out of bed, glancing at the clock on the wall, sighing, “A new day is about to begin.”
“Phew….” The primary school student Kudo took a deep breath and asked in a probing tone, “Mr. Clown, what happened last night?”
“Last night?” Lin Mo was already standing from the bed, walking towards the bathroom with his back to the primary school student Kudo, replying as he walked, “You were on night watch, I was asleep, and you’re asking what happened? It seems like nothing happened at all.”
Nothing happened? The primary school student Kudo thought to himself, how could that be possible? If nothing really happened, he was clearly sitting and reading, how did he suddenly fall asleep?
Thinking of this, the primary school student Kudo jogged to Lin Mo’s side, blocking him, and said anxiously, “Mr. Clown, I rember drinking so water last night and then inexplicably falling asleep. How could it be that nothing happened? I think there’s definitely sothing wrong with the water we drank!”
If it were sothing else, the primary school student Kudo might not be so adamant about finding an answer. But what happened last night was different, if he didn’t figure out what really happened, it would beco an unresolved mystery in his heart forever. After all, every detective has a strong thirst for knowledge, and an innate desire to explore such unknown puzzles.
Lin Mo tilted his head, observing him without expression, pretending to be deep in thought. Quickly, as if he had realized sothing, an enlightennt appeared on his face, “If we were eliminated, we wouldn’t still be in the dormitory. This ans we haven’t been eliminated, so last night, maybe you were just too sleepy. You don’t need to make excuses, I won’t bla you for this.”
