Chapter 613 Human Cube
There was a hint of anticipation in Zhou Caiwei's tone of voice, and her eyes on her belly button blinked mischievously twice, implying that Wu Xian must stay and play.
But she is no longer a human being. God knows whether she stays here to play or be played.
So Wu Xian declined politely: "Actually, I just wanted to go to the bathroom, but I just got home and forgot where the bathroom was, so I accidentally walked into your room. Can you help us find the way..."
Before he could finish his words, the wounds on Zhou Caiwei's body began to bleed. A bone-chopping knife appeared in her hand, and Wu Xian felt a chill in the hairs on his neck.
Seeing that things were not going well, Wu Xianguang quickly gave in.
"After we use the restroom, we can focus on playing with you."
"No, I want to play now!"
Wu Xian asked tentatively: "Then, what shall we play?"
Zhou Caiwei put away the knife, opened her arms, and showed her horrible body.
"My body is scary, isn't it?"
Wu Xian shook his head: "No, it's very personal, it's an art."
Zhou Caiwei was noncommittal about his evaluation: "This is just a fake home, but I have earned a ticket to return to my real hometown, but I don't want to go home like this, I want to be more respectable."
“Have you ever played with a Rubik’s Cube?”
"Now that I have been disrupted, you come and restore me to my original state."
Wu Xian looked at the body covered with knife wounds and nodded woodenly. After some mental preparation, he pinched her exposed waist and gently turned it, transferring the skin embedded in her body to the outside...
This was the first time Wu Xian had played with a Rubik's Cube with this kind of feel and appearance.
But just now on the ceiling, he had been forced to taste Zhou Caiwei's saltiness, so there was nothing to dislike now...
……
It's just dawn.
There was a long sound of water coming from the toilet of the experience center.
"what……"
Wu Xian let out a light cry, and his expression gradually returned to normal from being extremely distorted.
Last night he said he wanted to go to the bathroom just to put Zhou Caiwei off.
But after more than an hour of "Rubik's Cube Restoration", Wu Xian really felt the urge to urinate, so he could only endure it and piece together Zhou Caiwei's body.
The difficulty of restoring the human body is not comparable to restoring a Rubik's Cube. It took Wu Xian more than six hours to complete the basic restoration. Although her body is still a mess, at least it looks like a human being now.
When the sunlight shone into the room, Zhou Caiwei's temperament suddenly changed drastically, and there was no longer any cold and terrifying aura about her.
Like an innocent young girl, she pinched her skirt with both hands, turned her body in front of the mirror, and admired her beauty.
"Sixth Uncle, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I might be looked down upon by my relatives when I return to my hometown!"
"Maybe by tomorrow night, you'll be able to find a clue to go home. I hope you can get a ticket home soon, just like me!"
"I will stay in Fuyuan City for a few more days to say my final goodbyes to my relatives here. When you return home, I will come to help you!"
Zhou Caiwei's words contained very important information, but Wu Xian had no time to think about it. Veins popped out on his forehead as he asked quickly:
"Can I go to the bathroom now?"
Zhou Caiwei covered her mouth, chuckled and nodded.
Wu Xian took Heigu with him and rushed out, running towards the toilet at an extremely fast speed.
Zhou Caiwei walked out the door, stared at Wu Xian's back, and gave a strange smile.
"My dear Sixth Uncle, you have helped me so much, how can I repay you?"
…The toilets in the experience center are also very retro, with only old-fashioned squat toilets.
After solving his physiological problem, Wu Xian had enough energy to stand at the window and ponder.
“Is the experience center so lively every night?”
"Zhou Caiwei said that I will find clues to go home tomorrow night. This may mean that I will become a monster like them tomorrow night."
"The key lies in the third night..."
"The situation faced by other displaced people should be the same. Before the third night, they were all ordinary people."
"But the nights at the Experience Center are so dangerous, how did they survive the first two nights?"
Wu Xian suddenly remembered that when he rushed out of the room last night, he saw Mei Guifen and his wife with strange looks in the lobby on the first floor.
"They were just watching last night... Perhaps their mission is to ensure that the lost people who come to the experience center are not killed before the third night."
"Also, when Zhou Caiwei just stood up from the ground, she said words of thanks to the people outside the door."
"But from her perspective, she couldn't see Mei Guifen and her husband downstairs, so who was she thanking? Was that the real mastermind behind the experience center?"
Based on the information currently available, this is all Wu Xian can think of.
When he took Heigu out of the bathroom, he found that hot meals were already served on the table in the restaurant on the first floor.
The meal was simple, just white porridge and pickles, and the leftover dumplings from last night wrapped in eggs and fried. Heigu's dog bowl was empty.
When sister Hao Yulan saw Wu Xian, she hurriedly pulled him over. Her eyes were red and her cheeks were a little swollen, and it was obvious that she had been crying for a while.
"I'm sorry, brother. I scared you last night. It wasn't my intention. I was also scared."
Wu Xian asked in a gentle voice: "Can you tell me what happened last night?"
But Hao Yulan blew her nose and kept silent.
At the breakfast table, Mei Guifen yelled at the "children".
People stay up late at night and do nothing but toss and turn. How will their health be affected if they continue like this? So-and-so's child always stays up late and ends up with such and such disease.
But even though he was pointed at and scolded, Wu Xian could still feel the warmth of being cared for.
He could only curse "Old Deng" in his heart to counter the inexplicable increase in his favorability.
Halfway through the meal, Wu Xian suddenly figured something out.
Perhaps the main purpose of the experience center's cognitive modification is not to maintain this false family, nor to prevent infiltration from the outside world, but to offset the terror of the night!
The terrifying 'relatives' and the risk of turning into monsters themselves... after spending a night here, even a madman would want to escape.
But after the modification of their cognition, the displaced people regard this place as their home, and every relative is very important. They are reluctant to leave unless they have no other choice.
By the time the displaced people want to leave their hometowns, regardless of their families, they are often already deeply trapped and unable to leave...
After meal.
Mei Guifen poured the remaining rice porridge and dumplings on the table into the dog bowl. When Heigu saw the leftovers, her eyes lit up and she swallowed them with big gulps.
"Eat more. You performed really well last night. Your hometown must love you very much, so it gave you such a gift for self-defense. Your hometown is so good to you, how can you not go home and visit it?"
Wu Xian smiled. At first he felt nothing was wrong, but then he suddenly sat up straight.
Heigu is a person who never tires of eating fine food, so how could it eat leftovers so happily?
It seems that the cognition that was just restored last night has been distorted again...
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the experience hall.
