    Chapter 113 New Topic

    In the early days, most invigilators were from the army, so people like Chu Yue were actually very tolerant. Unless they were deliberately exaggerating and joking, she would not care about minor ailments.

    If she said it was uncomfortable, it was really uncomfortable.

    So what does it mean to be hungry???

    Youhuo was a little skeptical at first, but he didn’t expect to resonate with it half an hour later.

    Resonance in the physical sense – Chu Yue’s stomach protested, and He’s stomach responded, singing in harmony and almost making Qin Zhu laugh.

    “My heart is burning right now, and I’m still a little dizzy.” Chu Yue walked around the sofa, too hungry to sit down.

    Youhuo didn’t say a word, sitting on the sofa with his long legs spread out, starving into a low-energy consumption mode.

    Chu Yue turned around and couldn’t help but turn to the kitchen again.

    “Oh, by the way, where did those onions on the refrigerator go?”

    You Huo and Qin Jiu both looked at her in shock.

    “No, what are you two looking at? I don’t plan to eat it alone, but if I find something, I can cut one and fry it for seasoning.”

    The lady was so hungry that she began to dream.

    “Forget it, I guess you two don’t know either. I’ll take a look, just in case I can find something to eat.” She said reluctantly: “Even if it’s just a chili, I can stir-fry it on the spot. If there are three or five, I can even put together a plate of tiger pepper.”

    “There’s no vinegar here, otherwise it would be sweet and sour tiger pepper.”

    She is also masochistic.She was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back, and she had to seek stimulation verbally. The more she talked, the more her stomach growled.

    The cooing sound moved away, and the back of the sofa behind Youhuo creaked.

    He turned around and saw Qin Zhu pressing his elbow on it, lowering his head and asking him: “Are you feeling uncomfortable?”

    “Average.” Youhuo subconsciously downplayed it.

    After saying that, he paused for a moment and then added to Qin Zhu: “It’s similar to what Chu Yue said. I want to bite you when I see you now.”

    I don’t know why this sounds strange.

    Qin Jiu lowered his hand, raised it in front of Youhuo and said, “It’s not like I didn’t bite him last night. Look at the teeth marks of our great examiner.”

    Youhuo: “…”

    Who can figure out the details after all this nonsense?

    He was about to turn his face away when he realized that the hand he stretched out had no teeth marks at all.

    What about coaxing ghosts again?

    Under Youhuo’s numb gaze, Qin Zhu rubbed his face with his hanging fingers and said, “Just kidding.”

    “Just before your brother entered the bathroom, I tried to make some movement in the mirror. He should have seen it.”

    You Huo thought about Yu Wen’s reaction and asked, “Are you scared to death?”

    Qin Jiu said: “It’s okay, it’s stable.”

    “Are you sure he knows what you mean?”

    “Probably, it depends on your brother’s understanding.”

    Youhuo looked at the floor mirror.

    Sure enough, on the other side of the mirror, Yu Wen came out of the toilet and went straight to the sofa.

    He shook the water in his hand and shouted from a distance: “Lao Yu! The mirror trembled just now, it must be my brother calling me.”

    Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows and happily accepted the title “my brother”.

    “How do you say it?” Old Yu Diandian ran to the sofa.

    “You must urge me to get them out.”

    This time, classmate Yu Wen’s understanding ability was very good, and he accurately captured the thoughts of You Huo.

    Others also returned to the living room one after another.

    “Just write any wrong answer.” Yang Shu said.

    She still doesn’t look good, but it’s not as ugly as before. Shu Xue and Wu Li have obviously comforted her.

    “Are you ready?” Yu Wen asked, grabbing the pen.

    he Just write the wrong one and cross it out.Everything in this building that can illuminate people will become a murder weapon. Before You Huo, Qin Zhu and Chu Yue come out, they must ensure their own safety.

    Wu Li rubbed her stomach and said, “My stomach hurts a little. I might be hungry. If anything happens later, you should do it in a way that maximizes benefits.”

    “Don’t worry, I can’t let you have anything.” Yang Shu turned to Yu Wen and said, “Write it.”

    Yu Wen grabbed the pen and everyone tensed up.

    In the mirror, Chu Yue stopped dreaming and returned to the sofa waiting to be let out.

    “I remember discussing it with my sister and the answer was 1…” Yu Wen muttered to himself.

    How many Shirleys can there be at most in the house?

    If the Shirley in the mirror is a shadow and a fake, then there is only one Shirley.

    Yu Wen said and casually wrote a 0 under the second question.

    As soon as he started writing, he said, “Wait a minute.”

    It’s a pity that Yu Wen outside the mirror can’t see he, let alone hear he.

    Fortunately, someone reached out to stop it.

    “Wait a minute.” It was Yang Shu who spoke.

    Yu Wen had just written an arc, but it got stuck in the middle and didn’t dare to move.

    “We have exchanged messages in the mirror before. Judging from Shirley’s diary and her parents’ diary, she may…have been replaced by herself in the mirror.” Yang Shu said, “You have probably seen horror movies, and the same is true for the routine.”

    Yu Wen had never been in the mirror, nor had he bothered to read his master’s diary.

    He was surprised and said hesitantly: “Then the answer is…0?”

    Wu Li said: “Actually, I’m not sure, because the question is a bit vague. If Shirley has really been replaced, and the person in the mirror is a shadow regardless of whether he comes out or not, then the answer is 0. If what is in the mirror is a shadow, and what can be touched is considered real, then the answer is 1. If nothing is taken into account and everything is counted, the answer is countless.”

    “Now that countless numbers have been ruled out, 0 and 1 cannot yet be determined.”

    Yu Wen thought for a while and said, “To be on the safe side, I won’t write 0 or 1.”

    he said, continuing to write along the arc, and simply wrote a 3.

    Sally and Shirley recovered from the shadows of yesterday and walked out the door hand in hand, each holding a huge rubber ball in their hands. The thumping sound went away to the basketball court across the street.

    The people in the room looked at Shirley’s back. The atmosphere was tense and no one spoke.

    Shortly after the brother and sister left, red handwriting slowly appeared on the paper. He put a check mark after 3 and added 12 points.????

    Question marks gushed out from Yu Wen’s forehead.

    If you get the correct answer at random, that’s called luck.

    If you were full of confidence and deliberately answered incorrectly, but he turned out to be right, that would not be luck, it would be ridicule.

    Being ridiculed.

    You Huo, Qin Jiu and Chu Yue can’t get out.

    There are three Shirleys in the family.

    I don’t know which of these three things is more embarrassing.

    Anyway, when combined, people inside and outside the mirror are desperate.

    Youhuo said they were hungry, but I heard that they were shocked.

    The sound of the ball hitting the ball entered the house across the street, and the two children giggled, echoing in the empty street, making the house fall into a dead silence.

    “Three Shirleys? How could there be three Shirleys? There are only two children in total.” Lao Yu looked out.

    The more he looked at it, the more horrified he became.

    Because in many moments, ignoring the issue of hair length, the two children look too much alike…

    It’s so similar, almost exactly the same.

    In the mirror, You Huo patted Qin Jiu and said, “Don’t you know how to recite Shirley’s diary? Recite it again.”

    Qin Jiu: “…”

    It’s fine for fun, but it’s a bit scary to memorize those contents seriously when there are other people around.

    Qin Zhu said: “I know what you want to hear, about Sally, right?”

    Chu Yue also sat upright and said, “Yes, when I read the diary, I felt something was strange. Now that I think about it, in the diary, every time Shirley mentioned her parents, she said that her mother rewarded her and her father gave her such and such, and her parents… never seem to give Sally anything?”

    This time Qin Ju didn’t have to memorize it. You Huo remembered a certain page very clearly.

    Shirley wrote in one of them: She made a bet with Sally, and if she won, Sally should give her a candy.But Sally doesn’t have any candy…Mother never gives him candy.

    Youhuo looked through Shirley’s parents’ diary again and found that they didn’t mention Sally at all.

    It seems that in their eyes, this “son” does not exist at all, and they only have one daughter.

    “Also, Shirley lost a tooth, and Sally also lost a tooth.” Chu Yue said, “It didn’t seem like anything at first glance, but I felt at the time… or subconsciously felt that he and he lost their teeth in exactly the same position.”

    In addition, the “brother and sister” often speak in the same voice.

    Even if they have discussed it, even if they are twins, they cannot be so consistent all day long.

    The people inside and outside the mirror suddenly thought of each other——

    Sally is Shirley.

    “Wait a minute!” Lao Yu suddenly remembered something and went straight to the guest room.

    Others hurriedly followed.

    “What’s wrong?”

    Everyone was a little puzzled when they saw Lao Yu lifting up the mattress.

    “I was trapped in the mirror before, so I was wondering if I could find some clues in the guest room.” Lao Yu asked Yu Wen for help, moved the mattress away, reached inside a few times and said, “Isn’t there a gap at the head of the bed? I saw a book under the bed, and I tried to take it out but couldn’t find it.”

    There was a notebook under the bed in the guest room. Either someone accidentally dropped it in, or they found something hidden there.

    Lao Yu prefers the latter.

    The notebook was finally taken out. Lao Yu blew off the dust on the cover and spread it out solemnly on the coffee table.

    At the same time, Youhuo and the three of them also had exactly the same notebook in front of them, with the pages opened in exactly the same position.

    This is still a diary.

    Judging from the naive writing style, it is still Shirley’s, but the time is earlier than the one Qin Jiuhui memorized.

    February 19

    I want to have a brother who I will call Sally.

    Mom said it could have happened, and Dad even made getting in and out of bed, but unfortunately it didn’t happen later.

    What does it mean to have something that could have been?

    February 22

    I have a brother, so happy!

    he’s in my bedroom, sleeping underneath me.

    I told my mother about this. She was cutting cabbage and was so happy that she dropped her knife.

    February 24

    My parents like to hug me recently, which is what they do when they are sick.

    But I’m not sick.

    It’s great to have a brother. Sally plays basketball with me every day.

    February 25

    I asked my mother if Sally and I were twins, and she seemed unhappy.

    It’s strange that she doesn’t seem to like Sally.

    March 5

    Sally finally wore something different from me and I cut off his hair.

    The two of us are different.

    When I cry, he stops crying and makes me laugh.

    March 7

    My mother bought me a lot of candies, I was so happy.

    When my father told me a story, he asked me why I had a brother.

    Because I made a wish, I make a wish in front of the mirror every day before going to bed.

    But I won’t tell him.

    Sally said it was a secret between us.

    April 2

    When we took pictures today, I asked Sally to come in with me, and my mother agreed.

    We took a lot of photos.

    I could put them on the stovetop or have Dad hang them on the wall.

    April 15

    Mom and Dad still don’t like Sally.

    it’s a pity.

    Although this diary also looks at people’s backs, it is obviously much gentler than the previous one.

    Everyone can understand the whole story after looking at these contents.

    This house originally only housed a family of three, the host and his wife and their daughter Shirley.

    Shirley made a wish in front of the mirror every day, so one day, the mirror copied a she, which was Sally.

    Sally looked exactly like Shirley at first, from her appearance to her clothes to her crying and laughing expressions.One day later, Sally cut her hair and changed her clothes so that she no longer looked exactly like Shirley.

    It’s starting to get real…

    After half a year passed, the mirror was ready to move again.This time the whole family noticed something was wrong with the mirror.

    It should have copied another Shirley, this time not simply playing with her, but replacing her.

    Maybe out of jealousy or competitiveness?Or some other psychology.

    So the style of painting changed drastically after the second diary.

    ***

    On the court, the “brother and sister” were still shooting the ball and smiling happily.

    But everyone felt their scalps go cold when they saw it.

    If those are two “Shirleys,” where is the third one?

    After answering both questions correctly, You Huo and the others were forced to stay for a long time.

    Yu Wen specially ran to the mirror and confessed: “Brother, I accidentally answered the question correctly, and I can’t erase it no matter how I paint it. I can only wait for the questions to be refreshed in the evening before letting you out, and you can bear with it a little longer.”

    Chu Yue licked her teeth and said, “No, I can’t bear it anymore. I’d better lock myself in the room. Now that I see this kid, I just think that his tender skin and tender meat should taste good. You two should stay away from me. I’ll come out in the evening.”

    After she said that, she ran away.

    The guest room door banged, but there was no movement.

    You Huo raised his eyelids and his gaze fell on Qin Zhu’s neck.

    He could keenly feel the meridians on Qin Zhu’s neck beating with his heart.

    he is also very hungry.

    Qin Zhu leaned forward, looked into his eyes and asked, “There are still a few hours, can you bear it?”

    Youhuo suddenly came back to his senses.

    He licked his lips and looked away, and said softly: “Reluctantly, so I’d better sleep. You…don’t get too close to me, I’m afraid I’ll see a pile of gnawed bones when I open my eyes.”

    Qin Jiu is very obedient…but he is a ghost.

    ***

    This afternoon has been extremely difficult, in every sense of the word.

    At the time of nap in the evening, the hungry and restless people calm down.Everyone was sleeping neatly in the small building, and Shirley’s “brother and sister” were also snuggled into the bed, each with a bulge, snoring slightly, and their pale golden hair sticking out of the bed.

    he We had a rare sleep this night because the candidates answered the questions correctly.Also because of some… other changes.

    At 8 o’clock in the evening, a new question was written on the white paper in the living room:

    One Shirley said nothing, but the two Shirleys laughed.Shirley always likes to play little games, such as hiding somewhere and waiting for her parents or guests to find her.Ever since she had three Shirleys, this game has troubled her.

    Shirley’s favorite hiding place is the low cabinet under the bed in the master bedroom.A short cabinet can hide up to two sherrys, or one sherry and a rubber ball, or two rubber balls.

    Shirley always likes to hold the ball when playing, so how many short cabinets are needed for three Shirleys?
