    Chapter 108 A mistake

    Seeing the bright red cross, Yu Wen was unhappy: “It’s impossible! How could it be wrong?”

    “Little handsome boy, let’s not worry about why we made the mistake first.” Chu Yue thought more carefully: “The focus is on the punishment for the mistake.”

    Punishment?

    Yu Wen re-read the note on the paper: “There is no punishment. Sister, look, it says that if they fail to answer the question or answer the question incorrectly, Sally and Shirley will punish themselves and not be able to eat for a day. Isn’t this a good thing for us?”

    “Oh?” Chu Yue pointed at the kid who burst into tears and said, “It’s a good thing that he is crying like this? Think about it, what is he most afraid of doing now?”

    Yu Wen: “…Afraid of eating it? If you eat it again, it will probably explode.”

    The level boss sobbed twice and looked particularly miserable.

    “Yes. That’s what I thought -” Compared to You Huo and Qin Zhu, Boss Chu seems more humane and knows how to share his ideas with the little fool.

    She used a pen to highlight three areas: “a day”, “can’t eat anything”, and “feel hungry often”.

    “…”

    Yu Wen felt like he had met a tutor.

    “Punishing yourself for not being able to eat is equivalent to going on a hunger strike to show your temper. What are the consequences of a hunger strike?” Chu Yue tapped the paper with her pen: “At this time the next day, they will feel hungry and unbearable. Think about it from the perspective of a child. If you say you want to go on a hunger strike, but you are too hungry, what will you do?”

    I heard: “I cried with regret.”

    “…You are really a talent.” Boss Chu said to himself, not expecting to interact with his friend’s younger brother, “I can’t help but eat secretly. When is this secretive time? When everyone else is asleep. Think about it in the afternoon, we happened to be in nap time, and the two brats took the opportunity to start secretly eating.”

    Yu Wen’s face looked ugly: “Then I ate six of them in one go.”

    Chu Yue added: “This must be an accident for both of them. After all, there is usually only one person in an examination room. Therefore, according to normal logic, there is a probability of stealing. It may be successful, it may not be successful. A sleeping person will not make Shirley cry. She must have taken the initiative to find someone. I guess I let the candidates make a choice. If she chooses the right one, she will not be able to eat, and if she chooses the wrong one, she will be unlucky.”

    She paused and muttered: “Then our people are too unlucky.”

    “Let’s not talk about these for now. According to this logic, the original intention of the question is this-if you answer it correctly, the two brats will live in peace until the second question is asked the next day. If you don’t answer or answer the question wrongly, you may be eaten by the brats the next day.”

    Yu Wen said: “So during nap time tomorrow, we may be eaten? No wonder the kid is crying so miserably. How can he eat?”

    Chu Yue said: “This is the point of the trouble. According to the normal operation of the question, he will work hard to digest the previous food to ensure that he can eat new ones. We all have people in he’s stomach. Six may not be digested, but one should not be a problem.”

    Yu Wen was confused: “Yes!”

    “So, for us, the punishment for answering the wrong question will not be until tomorrow. But for your parents, it will be very difficult now.” Chu Yue also sorted out her thoughts.

    At the same time, in the mirror.

    The black mist rolled and spread toward the center, like silkworm chrysalises devouring mulberry leaves.

    Lao Yu limped one leg and crossed himself on the bed, wrapping himself tightly with a quilt.

    The door was shrouded in black mist, and I didn’t know what was going on outside.

    While he comforted himself to calm down, he rummaged around in the limited space, trying to find some clues to save himself.

    In the master bedroom upstairs, Shu Xue tried to reach out into the black mist, but was held back by Wu Li and Yang Shu.

    “Your hands are not made of meat?!” Yang Shu said.

    “I’ll give it a try. If you can flip through the exam room, this might work too,” Shu Xue said.

    “I’ve tried it three times!” Ms. Yang stared, “Can we still test for antibodies?”

    Unlike others, You Huo and Qin Zhu could clearly see what Yu Wen and Chu Yue were doing.

    “Are you nervous?” Qin Jiu asked.

    “Not nervous.”

    “Liar, you’ve been touching earrings.”

    Youhuo paused with his fingers.

    He does look very calm, but in Wu Li’s words, this action is his safe zone.

    “I still care very much… why are you wearing it.” Qin Zhu looked at the small shiny thing under his finger.

    From the moment he saw You Huo in the first exam, his eyes would always fall on this earring.

    It was so bright in the crowd that Qin Zhu could find where the light came from in an instant.

    “I don’t know, I didn’t think about it.” You Huo glanced at Qin Zhu: “Why do you care so much? Don’t you like it?”

    “No.”

    Qin Jiu said.

    He looked at it for a while, then stretched out his hand to touch it, and the edges ran across his fingertips.

    “I can’t tell, it’s not unpleasant.”

    On the contrary, he always feels at ease every time he sees this earring.

    It’s just that there is a slight… elusive regret among the stability.

    Qin Jiu squinted his eyes and came back to his senses after a moment.

    He smiled mischievously in his doubtful eyes and said, “Nothing, I was just guessing whether I gave it to you as a bribe or a lover’s gift from the examiner to the examiner.”

    The bribe in front is pure nonsense, but in the back…

    Youhuo pushed away He Zuoyao’s fingers and said, “Anyway, I couldn’t have done it myself.”

    With his character, would he take the initiative to do something so arrogant and eye-catching?

    impossible.

    The word “fear” is still not in the dictionary of the two bosses, but this is indeed the first time that their life and death are in the hands of others.

    In the mirror, Chu Yue and Yu Wen made a decision.

    “You can’t leave the wrong questions alone, and you can’t just digest any of them. Correct them!” Chu Yue.

    “I’ll do it, sister.” Yu Wen rolled up his sleeves. “As the question says, you can modify it, but you have to pay a price. There must be someone outside the mirror. Let me… It’s not very reliable. It doesn’t matter if you accidentally get caught in it. You must stay outside and sit in check.”

    Chu Yue was stunned for a moment, thinking that if nothing else, this kid was quite courageous at the critical moment.

    “Isn’t that just the wrong answer? I’ll bring all the mirrors out and look at them in the main office, right?” Yu Wen said, striding to the stairs and picking up the tall full-length mirror.

    From Chu Yue’s perspective, it was quite neat.

    From the perspective of You Huo and Qin Zhu, it was this classmate whose entire face was pressed against the mirror.

    This kind of visual impact at close range is really eye-catching.

    Youhuo took a step back with a sullen face.

    However, the next second, he was stunned.

    Yu Wen moved the mirror, and the area reflected in the mirror began to change, turning to the right following Yu Wen’s movements.

    Correspondingly, Youhuo found that the space they were in also began to transform.

    The doormats of the kitchen and bathroom quickly disappeared into the black mist, and the stairs leading to the basement also disappeared.

    The range on this side was shrinking with Yu Wen’s movements.

    On the other side, Black Mist suddenly stopped moving. Instead of continuing to swallow, he even stepped back.

    In the blink of an eye, another floor-to-ceiling window was revealed, then the door of the study, then the door of the guest room…

    Youhuo and Qin Zhu reacted very quickly and immediately followed him towards the sofa and all the way to the door of the guest room.

    This spatial change finally stopped.

    The two looked at each other, suddenly understanding.

    “Wherever the mirror shines, our scope of activities changes.” Qin Jiu said.

    You Huo had already grasped the door handle of the guest room: “If I open the door now, will Lao Yu be inside?”

    He said and opened the door.

    Disappointingly, there was still a dark fog behind the door.

    “Understood wrong?” Youhuo said with a frown.

    “Not necessarily.” Qin Jiu thought for a moment and said, “The mirror in the guest room faces that way, not the door. So your uncle?”

    This title is not something people are used to. Qin Jiu chuckled as he spoke, and then said: “I always feel that our chief examiner seems to have fallen from the sky… Your uncle shouldn’t be able to see the door from inside. He has no intersection with us, so we can’t find him. Unless…”

    “Unless Yu Wen also moves the mirror out of the guest room.” Youhuo continued.

    “Yes.”

    Realistic living room.

    Little classmate Yu Wen didn’t know that he had hit the mark by mistake and opened up new ideas to Brother He and Qin Zhu.

    He placed the mirror in front of the sofa and adjusted the angle.

    “We also have a mirror in our room, I’ll bring it over.”

    “Okay, we have one in our room too.” Chu Yue said, “I’ll move it down first. I remember there should be a toilet too.”

    She actually feels that according to normal logic, the answer to the second question is “countless”, which is correct.

    Even if I count with a mirror, this is the answer.

    But she vaguely felt that the mirror, as a key prop, was the most reassuring to put in front of her.So she doesn’t mind accompanying this kid to be stupid and move the mirror together.

    Yu Wen opened the door to the guest room on the first floor.

    The mirror hung there, reflecting the empty room.

    When he was going to bed last night, he also said to Lao Yu: “I’m used to sleeping alone, so I might kick someone. Can you put a piece of clothing next to your old waist? I’m afraid I’ll kick you into paralysis.”

    Then Lao Yu slapped him on the back.

    “Don’t I know what’s wrong with you? Who do you think took the quilt back for you when you kicked it back and forth?”

    Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his eyes, Lao Yu, who was holding the quilt for him, was gone.

    Yuwen stood for a while, feeling sad alone.

    To Brother He, Qin Jiu, and I am so anxious…

    he sniffed and took the mirror off the wall.

    Hold it and walk outside.

    The mirror changed its angle and finally illuminated the living room.

    The scenes reflected in the two mirrors finally intersected. At that moment, the black fog in front of You Huo finally dissipated, and Lao Yu crawled out of the guest room.

    The moment he saw Youhuo, he didn’t care anymore and hugged the two people in front of him, squealing with excitement.

    “I almost thought I was going to die!” Lao Yuhao said: “Oh my god, there is only such a small place, and there is not even a toilet. That unlucky thing can also eat people, and it will bleed on my hand! Fortunately! Fortunately, I survived…”

    He took a breath after sighing, and then realized that he was bold enough to hug not only his nephew, but also his boyfriend.

    Lao Yu immediately stayed in place, neither hugging nor letting go.

    Fortunately, Boss Chu showed up in time.

    She carried the mirror downstairs and finally released the three girls in the master bedroom.

    “Why did you come in too?!” As soon as Yang Shu saw Qin Zhu and You Huo, his mood became unstable on the spot.

    These two have been framed, how can they survive?

    But now is not the time for chatting.

    Chu Yue quickly found the other three mirrors, and then Yu heard that this genius used six mirrors to surround the two brats tied up on the sofa.

    You Huo and others followed Yu Wen’s arrangements and snaked around the constantly changing activity area.

    In the end, the only area left for them was the sofa.

    Lao Yu said desperately: “Can you bring a toilet in? I want to go to the toilet.”

    Unfortunately, the unfilial son cannot hear his appeal.

    I heard that I changed it many times.

    He didn’t know that he almost exhausted his six companions to death. He just muttered to Chu Yue: “No, no matter how I place them, there are countless of them. Sister, what are you doing? What did you get?”

    Chu Yue walked over from the corner of the living room, holding in her hand the diary that You Huo and Qin Zhu had been thinking about.

    “I found a diary, I guess A or 001 put it there.” Chu Yue flipped through a few pages and said, “I just read a few articles, I suspect…”

    She glanced at Shirley and Sally, then said to Yu Wen after careful consideration: “This question probably doesn’t really ask you to count how many people are in the mirror, what do you think? The people in the mirror are all fake, and there is only one real Shirley.”

    When they heard this, the brother and sister on the sofa lowered their heads.

    Their pale blond hair was so fluffy that it was difficult to see their expressions clearly when it was in front of their eyes.

    Yu Wen thought about it and thought it made sense.

    “Then I… changed it?” He took a deep breath, grabbed the marker and drew a few lines on the answer to the second question, and erased the original words.

    The moment the answer was erased, the six mirrors suddenly trembled crazily.

    Yu Wen was startled.

    Immediately afterwards, the mirror made a “pop” sound, as if someone was struggling to get out and slapped their palms on the mirror.

    He was stunned for a moment, then threw himself in front of the mirror in surprise and shouted: “Lao Yu? Brother? Is that you? Are you coming out?”

    The next second, a bunch of bloody handprints were pressed against the tip of his nose and slapped on the mirror.

    “Not your brother!” Chu Yue pulled him away.

    Because there are more and more bloody fingerprints on the mirror, not only those of adults, but also those of children.

    “Who is this?!” Yu Wen quickly backed away.

    “People who were swallowed before!” Chu Yue said, “I guess it’s the punishment for changing the answer.”
