Chapter 54: No Way to Survive
For a moment, we were like playing tug-of-war, desperately holding onto Tong Tong's body, trying to get her out of the arms behind her. Although Tong Tong was panicking, she was still screaming and tearing at the arms beside her.
However, to our surprise, the arm stretched out from the door was grayish-white in skin color and looked like a dead person's hand. What was even more terrifying was that Tong Tong was tearing at the arm, but the arm not only did not relax, but became tighter and tighter.
"What should I do? I'm about to be pulled in." Tong Tong screamed, her face full of panic. Seeing this, I comforted her while looking at her arms behind her.
The arm behind her extended from the door, and it didn't look like a human arm at all.
The strength of the arms was amazing. Even though so many of us held on to Tong Tong, we were still pulled back. At this time, Tong Tong suddenly shouted, "Hurry up and think of a solution. If you can't, just cut off these two arms."
After hearing her words, I finally reacted and quickly took out a machete from my backpack. This machete was what I used for self-defense, but I didn't expect it to play a key role at this time.
I grabbed the machete and chopped it directly on Tong Tong's arms behind her. But what surprised me was that the machete did not leave any marks on the two arms. Not only that, after being attacked, the arms became even more violent, pulling at Tong Tong crazily. Tong Tong's body was gradually being pulled behind the door.
Tong Tong struggled even more frantically. She knew that death was getting closer and closer to her. Despair appeared on her face. She cried and shouted, "Please, save me, save me."
"I will save you." I shouted through gritted teeth, and then the machete in my hand fell on my arm again. This time, a scar finally appeared, but it healed quickly.
This shocked me so much that I couldn't believe my eyes. Behind me, Zhao Pengyu suddenly thought of something and quickly took out a lighter and pointed it directly at his arm. As the flame of the lighter appeared, his arm trembled obviously, but he still didn't let go of Tong Tong.
"What's going on? The lighter doesn't work." Zhao Pengyu said in panic.
I looked at the arms in front of me with an unpleasant expression, I couldn't believe my eyes. These arms were like steel, they couldn't be shaken at all. Our attacks on the arms were completely useless.
"Try again." I gritted my teeth and chopped my arm with the machete in my hand. But it was useless. Not only was it useless, it made my arm even more violent.
At this time, Tong Tong burst into tears. She shouted in despair: "What should I do? Save me quickly, I don't want to die. I don't want to die!"
Chen Lanyu, Mi Qiqi and the others were desperately trying to hold on to her body, but from their expressions, it could be seen that they could not hold on for much longer. The situation was critical.
But in this case, there is nothing we can do.
Although I tried my best to save Tong Tong, no matter how hard I hit her arm, I couldn't get it to move. I couldn't even retract it a little. At this time, I finally collapsed to the ground and said helplessly, "I can't do anything."
"What should I do?" Zhao Pengyu said in tears. Watching a classmate die in front of me, and being unable to save him, this kind of pain is simply unimaginable.
The force of the arm pulling was getting closer and closer. Although Chen Lanyu and the others struggled hard, it was useless .
Seeing Tong Tong's body approaching the door little by little, we all felt desperate at this moment.
Zhao Pengyu and I hurriedly grabbed Tong Tong, but it was useless. We could only slow her down temporarily. At this time, Tong Tong had already collapsed. She cried and shouted, "I don't want to die. Who can save me? Who can save me?"
However, no one answered her at this moment . Just like that, under our gaze, she was pulled into the door little by little. By this time, we were exhausted and could not pull her any further.
Tong Tong also realized this. A sad smile appeared on her face, and then she said the last words to us.
"I believe that everyone will leave this secret room and will get out alive. But I won't be able to see that day." She said with a wry smile, then looked at us sadly, and was about to continue speaking.
The arm behind her pulled her suddenly and then pulled her behind the door, which then closed. However, inside we heard the sounds of bones breaking and eating, accompanied by Tong Tong's screams of pain.
But we could only watch, and no one dared to go in.
"How could this happen?" I sat on the ground helplessly, listening to the chewing sounds in the distance. I knew that Tong Tong was probably in danger.
"We still couldn't save him." Zhao Pengyu said while crying.
Chen Lanyu, Mi Qiqi and the others had also collapsed one by one. Their pale faces showed how terrible the shock they had received was.
Twenty minutes passed like this, and the chewing sound disappeared. We looked towards the door in front of us, and everyone felt a little scared.
"It seems that of these three doors, the middle one cannot be used to exit, so only the ones on the left and right are left." I said, looking at the door in front of me.
"There are two doors left, and maybe one of them has an arm. What should we do?" said Mi Qiqi.
"Let me open it this time." I looked at her, and then carefully observed the two doors in front of me. Soon I found the difference. One of the two doors had some bloodstains, while the other door had nothing.
Thinking of this, I immediately understood what was going on. Then I directly opened the bloody door. When the door was opened, Chen Lanyu and the others subconsciously jumped back, fearing that an arm would appear.
But there was no arm in front of me, but a staircase leading down. Seeing this, everyone knew that this was the way out.
"How do you know?" Chen Lanyu asked.
"How do you know?" I glanced at her indifferently and said.
"How do you know that this door is the way out?" she asked, and the others looked at me. It seemed that everyone wanted to know how I made the choice.
Who knows I smiled bitterly and said: "I'm just guessing randomly. Anyway, the probability is 1 in 50. It's not certain that you will die."
Chen Lanyu rolled her eyes at me, clearly showing that she didn't believe me, but as I said, I was really just guessing at the time. Because I thought the bloodstains on the door were too strange, maybe they were deliberately trying to cover up something.
It turned out that my guess was right and I won the chance to survive.
The remaining eight of us walked down the stairs. No one expected that two people would die in just two hours of the escape room. If this continued, perhaps within three days, we would all die.
When we walked down the stairs, we saw a living room. In addition to the living room, we also saw a sanitary napkin and a kitchen. The atmosphere here was very dark. Although it was daytime, the sunlight coming in through the window made people feel unprecedented fear.
I slowly walked into the living room and looked at the walls around me. There didn't seem to be anything strange here. It was just that there was no one there.
Chen Lanyu also came over. She looked carefully, and after a while she said, "The door here is locked again. It seems we still need to find the key."
"Let's look for it together, but be careful," I said.
Then everyone started looking for it, and Zhao Pengyu came to the door of the toilet and said to me: "This should be the bathroom. I just want to go to the toilet."
"Go ahead." I said calmly.
Zhao Pengyu opened the door and walked in. He came out after a while. I sat on the sofa, looking around carefully, searching for clues.
But to our surprise, we didn't find the key. We searched the whole room but couldn't find any key. So we tried to break down the door violently.
But no matter how hard we smashed, we couldn't break the door open. Now we started to get anxious.
"Where is the key? We've looked everywhere." Mi Qiqi said anxiously.
"Let's look for it again, maybe it's hidden in some corner." I said.
"Then let's look for it again." She said helplessly.
I sat on the sofa, watching them search while looking around, because I always felt that what we were looking for might not be the key.
However, my guess was not confirmed. We searched for a long time but still couldn't find the key.
Soon it was dark and everyone sat on the sofa and started eating their food.
But everyone is in a low mood. After all, two people died today, and there are only two days left before we escape from the secret room.
I was thinking carefully while eating bread and drinking mineral water.
At this time, Mi Qiqi handed me a sausage and said, "I brought it specially. Eat it."
"No need, these are enough." I glanced at Miqiqi.
"So many things happened today, I'm really tired." After saying that, Mi Qiqi sat next to me and put her head on my shoulder. I didn't refuse because I was really tired now.
One day has passed since we were locked in this secret room. Two of us have died during this day, and the idea of escaping from the secret room has become a distant prospect, which makes me deeply troubled.
Are we really going to die in this secret room? I was terrified, but I didn't know what to do.
Soon, it was late at night and we all fell asleep. Who knew that in the middle of the night, I was woken up by someone, and when I opened my eyes, I found that the girl was Mi Qiqi.
