MTL - Unlimited Cycles of Death-Chapter 3 Iris 03┃ contains a cursed tarot card.
The glasses man claimed to be "Qiu Zijia", age 28, a graduate of a university of science and engineering, and computer engineering. He said he was a code writer. Because he is squatting in front of the computer and working all year round, his body is not very good, his eyes are short-sighted, and his temperament is gloomy.
Mu Qin felt that he was a little funny when he introduced himself, and was not so tit-for-tat when talking to Xu Fu.
Qiu Zijia's time left a good impression in front of female teachers. Teachers seemed to like such good students, and immediately raised their mouths and laughed: "Graduated from undergraduate, good!"
After that, the female teacher introduced herself. The female teacher's name was "Han Li", she was 39 years old, and she was also a senior graduate of a normal university. After graduation, she was first introduced by relatives to be a kindergarten teacher, because she was young at that time. The teacher's salary is very high, but after five or six years, he went to a junior high school somehow as a junior high school teacher.
As for the reason, Han Li herself did not say.
Cheng Guoxu was silent beside him, so Mu Qin stepped forward and introduced himself: "My name is Mu Qin."
Muqin was an orphan, who seemed to be abandoned or a baby. He was thrown into a trash can under an overpass, and was later found and taken to a nearby orphanage.
However, Muqin did not stay in the orphanage for a long time. He was adopted at about three or four years old. He was adopted by a couple who had lost their lives. The couple originally had a son in an accidental fire. Distraught, the couple, distraught, ran to the orphanage and took Muqin.
It was only when the couple was adopted that Muqin was very old. He was in his fifties, and when he was about twelve years old, he died of illness and left Muqin a considerable fortune.
The old couple had only one loved one, a bad-looking puppet, and a lot of age. He took Muqin as a guardian, and then squandered the property that should belong to Muqin, in addition to giving Muqin tuition and money. No matter what the monthly living expenses are, Mu Qin finished his high school entrance exam and then went to college. The old man said that he had run out of money. Mu Qin had to give up college and join the army.
I heard that there is no charge for being a soldier, and there are allowances, and there are also retirement fees after retiring.
Mu Qin served for five years. After he came out, he began to look for work. He had done everything at first, because most of the reasons for the service were security and other work. But he felt that the salary was not high and he learned to run sales.
Mu Qin's life is quite ordinary. He thinks so, but the technical house Qiu Zijia and the female teacher both mean to look at him differently, saying, "You have been a soldier, should you be good?"
Mu Qin laughed: "This is a division of the army. I am in the army to do logistics. Because the vegetables are cooked deliciously, I have stayed longer and have no skill."
Just now, Qiu Zijia and Han Li, who looked at each other with disappointment, were disappointed a lot. Finally, they looked at Cheng Guoxu. After hearing that the other party said that they were ordinary factory workers, they immediately lost interest.
Mu Qin followed Qiu Zijia and others to start searching for this so-called "game map".
This seems to be a large orphanage with courtyards, churches, apartment complexes for children and connected office areas.
In the office where five people gathered together at the beginning, there were a lot of old folders. According to the information in it, the orphanage was called "Iris Orphanage".
The iris orphanage was sponsored by several Western companies around 1982. Therefore, in the initial construction of the orphanage, its buildings also tended to Western styles, so a small church was built in the courtyard, and even a few nuns served here.
At first, indeed, many orphans were accommodated. This was supposed to be a great public welfare organization that benefited the society, but it was very backward at that time. The downturn in various industries and the immaturity of domestic adoption processes led to the sponsorship of this orphanage. For enterprises, it is a burden. In the following ten years, they withdrew their sponsorship to the orphanage one by one, and eventually the iris orphanage was abandoned and became what it is now.
The children living in the orphanage were also sent away one after another to other welfare agencies and social institutions.
On the surface, this thing seems to be no different. Most public welfare organizations will face a lasting decline due to a shortage of funds. However, Mu Qin finds that there is a strange truth behind this matter.
Because Muqin also got a lot of newspapers from the bookshelf in the office, and various newspapers from the 1980s to the 1990s, these newspapers intermittently recorded various negative reports about the iris orphanage.
For example, staff in orphanages are suspected of child abuse. For example, the director of the orphanage is suspected of embezzling sponsorship funds.
These negative reports formed public opinion on the iris orphanage at that time, and Muqin estimated that this was probably one of the reasons that the orphanage was eventually abandoned.
However, to this day, it is not so important why this orphanage was abandoned. The main purpose of Muqin and others is to find a way to leave the orphanage.
"Isn't it good to go over the wall?" The female teacher in the team still had a bit of an insult to this so-called killing game. She opened the door and glanced inside the courtyard. "Just find a ladder to climb over the wall. Where else do I need to find a door key. "
Muqin said: "There are spikes and barbed wire on the wall, and the wall is visually four or five meters high. If you accidentally, you will not climb out but die."
The female teacher rolled her eyes and said, "It's not easy. Find an iron clamp to cut the barbed wire. As for the spikes, press the spikes with a wooden board and turn them over ... We have students doing this in junior middle school. Too. "
Qiu Zijia said: "This method is very good, but where can I find ladder iron tongs and wooden boards? This place is so desolate, many equipment is either abandoned or moved away. Finding these things is time-consuming and laborious. It is better to find the door key directly. . "
Muqin agrees: "And there is another murderer who doesn't know if it is true or not. He has no time to take such a risky act of climbing a wall as if he was seeking his own way."
Seeing that her opinion was rejected, the female teacher seemed unhappy, and coldly hummed, "You are smart, then you must think of a way!"
Qiu Zijia seemed to think that this woman named Han Li couldn't get along with him and couldn't help but approached Mu Qin. He told Mu Qin: "Brother, even if you are a logistician in the army, the basic training should be There are still some, if you really face any killer, are you sure? "
Mu Qin thought about his chin and replied: "I have retired for many years, and my physical fitness is not as good as that year. Therefore, it depends on the situation, the physical response and explosive power of the opponent. Assuming the opponent has a weapon ... the sword can think of a way If it is a gun ... "
This situation made Qi Zijia not very optimistic, he regretted: "The guy named Xu Fu shouldn't be allowed to leave just now."
Muqin felt the same way: "It really shouldn't, he seems to know a lot of information, and we must at least dig more out of his mouth."
"Moreover, I haven't had time to ask him a question." Muqin said, and took out the fool's tarot card from his pocket. "Do you have this thing in your hand?"
Qiu Zijia, Han Li, and Cheng Guoxu heard the words and all looked at Mu Qin's hands, and they all answered, "Yes!"
Having said that, the three took their own tarot cards from their pockets, and it was interesting that the four tarot cards they were holding were all foolish cards, and the four foolish cards came together, leaving several people unknown. The ground is facing each other.
"What does this card mean, anyway?" Han Li looked over and over with the tarot card.
Qiu Zijia is indeed a senior otaku who plays computer. He speculated: "I think this may be a prop in the game. Have you ever played a card game, maybe it is similar to that."
"Card game?" Han Li probably hasn't played it, with a bit of disdain on her face, "You young people just know how to play games all day long."
Qiu Zijia could not stand Han Li anymore, she ignored her as much as possible and said, "I think this Tarot card is just like the prop card in the game. Each card has a different prop effect. The back of the fool card we are holding says Increasing our luck is probably the effect of this prop card. "
"Wait a minute!" When Qiu Zijia said here, Han Li next to her suddenly screamed. Her voice was very sharp when she raised her voice. They heard that Qiu Zijia and Mu Qin were all stunned. Only the silent Guo Chengxu beside him No response.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Zijia rubbed her ears and looked at Han Li, only to find Han Li holding her tarot card with a terrified twist.
"Did you just say that this card is to increase luck?" Han Li held her tarot card to Qiu Zijia.
Qiu Zijia glanced at her Tarot card without knowing it, and said casually, "Yes, isn't it written on the back of the card ..."
Having said that, Qiu Zijia suddenly got stuck. He looked at the tarot card raised by Han Li with strange eyes, and wondered, "Strange, the image on your tarot card is inverted."
When Mu Qin heard this, he suddenly approached Qiu Zijia and said to Han Li, "Will you show me your card?"
Despite asking politely, Mu Qin did not hesitate to reach out and took Han Li's Tarot card directly. He looked down carefully and found that the image on the Tarot card was indeed inverted ...
The characters that mark the fool and the pattern of the tarot card are upright, just like the cards in Muqin, Qiu Zijia, and Cheng Guoxu, but the image of the fool in the center of the card is inverted.
Mu Qin looked at the inverted fool for a moment and turned the card to look at the back. He found that the lines on the back of the card were also inverted. Line words, but see the above write:
The adventure is over and you are in the abyss everywhere.
Ready for despair and pain?
ps: Curse card. This card will reduce your luck.
