in a box

Chapter 1

In fact, Li Jing couldn't remember exactly what happened that day.

The picture that kept repeating in his head lasted only a dozen seconds.

The periphery of the event horizon is blurred, and the colors in the middle are chaotic.The dark brown of the marble and the yellow of the cheap faux wallpaper made a disgusting image.

Li Jing vaguely remembered that it should be the color of the toilet.On the other hand, he lay on the cold ground and moved his fingers, trying to pick up the phone that had been dropped in the distance.

The rhythmic music in the ballroom was still thumping, the laughter of the lady in the corridor, the sound of water running from the sink on one side, and the sound of myself moving my fingers non-stop, but it was terribly clear.

It seems that there are one or two young people, or middle-aged people who glanced at themselves with disdain, and said "playing things and losing one's ambition" and "the world is going downhill".

For a moment, Li Jing wanted to throw everything at hand, including vomit, at their faces.But the next second he was broken.

When the hotel waiter came to clean the toilet at two o'clock in the morning, the young man soaked in vomit had long since disappeared, and there was no shortage of mess on the floor tiles.A person who had been lying down for about five hours disappeared, and the waiter thought that a friend came to pick him up.The waiter shrugged, put on rubber gloves and began to clean up.

After packing up, the waiter found a small blueberry mobile phone that fell on the ground.He picked it up, wiped it, and turned it on.After a while, a text message came in.

"Please call this number to the kind-hearted person who found my mobile phone, and the 1000 reward will be paid in person, thank you (^_^)"

1000 yuan, good good good!The waiter looked at the half-worn mobile phone and cocked the corners of his mouth, thinking that he had a good night.He put his phone in his pocket, whistling and continuing to clean the pungent stains on the floor tiles.

And Li Jing's night was really terrible.The girl who was supposed to make an appointment tonight suddenly broke the appointment, and asked someone to come out for a drink, but she couldn't even support the second booth, so she was thrown in the toilet by a few drinking buddies, and was kicked in the stomach by someone who didn't know where she was. Messed up and ended up losing consciousness in his own vomit.

When Li Jing was drunk last time, he swore in a daze that if he got drunk again after today, he would be deprived of life for three years.So this time when he was drunk, he tasted the bad results.

When Li Jing woke up, there was still darkness in front of him.

He rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was still dreaming, or his eyes hadn't opened yet.After waiting for a long time, he was convinced that he was not wrong. There was indeed darkness in front of him, and there was no light source at all.

He raised his right hand to his eyes, and could only see a vague outline.

My head hurts.The brain seems to have turned into a paste, which cannot be stirred.He sat up covering his head, wanting to carefully identify his situation.As he expected, the worst thing he could do was to be thrown into the back alley by the bartender.But not only did this place have no light, it didn't even have a little bit of flowing air, just like a closed box.

After sniffing, he also smelled of the wine from last night, and his whole body was like a huge slop bucket.

He propped himself on the ground with his right hand, trying to get up.As a result, he tripped and staggered, fell and ate shit.There was a "clang clang" sound from the left foot.He fell to the ground and touched it with his left hand.

That's right.If I guess correctly, it should be an anklet and a cold iron chain.

In addition, if he guessed correctly, he should be imprisoned.

"Eh?" Li Jing made a voice in doubt.

He began to desperately search his unrestored memory bank, thinking about what he had done or said to offend someone.

He is an ordinary poor man.

So common that you can see it everywhere, so common that you don’t feel like you’re living in this world.When he didn't have any money before, he didn't dare to go out with his college classmates at all. He just drank, sang, karaoke, and hooked up casually. It was only after he had money that he started to try.

Many times, when I was too drunk, I went to a random place to renew my stall, and I dragged someone to open a room.When I wake up the next day, I first have to check whether my wallet and mobile phone are still there.

Li Jing thinks that ordinary people just like to have fun, like to do what they like, and often cannot resist the temptation of the body.

But what did he do?

Every bed partner has a good communication, every girl has a good chase until the breakup, and every drinking buddy is not seen for a long time.

But how did he get thrown down?Then he made a mistake step by step until he was abducted to this place?

Li Jing's mind went blank several times intermittently, and finally he gave up thinking.A fear of the unknown made his heart beat like a drum and his mouth dry.

The ground is not concrete, but a floor.Judging from the touch, it should be a good material.That said, there's a good chance this was in the home of the captor.

There is no ventilation and no light on all sides. This room is specially used for detaining prisoners.

Relying on Li Jing's not sober mind, he could only think of these.He turned his head anxiously, wanting to see more from the darkness.But this is also futile.

after a long time.Li Jing was about to fall asleep, when suddenly there was a "squeak" door opening sound.

The sound of the door opening?Li Jing suddenly woke up.

The light coming from the door allowed him to barely see the situation around him.

This is a small room of 12 square meters.There are no windows and there are two doors.

The chains on his feet were very long, but by visual inspection he could only walk through the opened door.

He stood up and walked slowly over.

I thought I would see a game scene like decryption, but it turned out to be a bathroom.Very ordinary small bathroom, although a bit rudimentary.The room has a toilet and bathtub.There is already water in the bathtub, and there are clean clothes and a piece of paper next to it

"Wear them".The light was very bright, forming a sharp contrast with the dark space just now. Li Jing looked at the hot water in the bathtub and the clothes on one side, showing a strange expression.This prisoner was a little too considerate.

The water in the bathtub was slightly colored, and there seemed to be white mist on the surface of the water.A bar of plain soap sits on one side of the tub, draped over a white towel.

Li Jing stood under the warm light and stared at the bathtub for a while.Couldn't resist trying to taste the water.It's the smell of the city's underground water pipes. He probably didn't leave the city.Then the next step is to think about why you came here.But in the end, he really felt that his body smelled bad, so he tried the temperature of the water and sat in it.Think about the problem while washing.During the short bath time, he thought over and over about his own situation.His surname is Li Mingjing, he is good-looking, not short in height, and has an average family background. His ancestors have never offended anyone, and he has never offended anyone in school.Because I am naturally sociable (it is really immodest to say this, but it is a fact), the students of these classes and the teachers of individual colleges like him very much and are willing to deal with him.Looking at it this way, in addition to going to school and exercising, the only things left are sex dating and part-time jobs that are more suspicious.

But after 3 minutes, the relationship between the friends with guns is also very clear.Not to mention that working part-time has not offended anyone.

The point is, when Li Jing racked his brains to think about these unproblematic questions, he didn't feel panicked.In those movies, the scene where the main character yelled, smashed things, cried and prayed as soon as he woke up did not happen to him at all. Now he only thinks that he is so calm and funny.

Hey, maybe the reality show host will pop up after a while, saying "It's a pity that Mr. Li Jing was not fooled!"

He snorted, feeling more and more embarrassed by himself for having such thoughts.

A protagonist who is imprisoned, without anxiety, but thinking about some reality show, he is probably the only one in ancient and modern times.What kind of ghost mental activity is this.

In Li Jing's pitiful impression, the imprisoned people were locked in basements, cages, or simply had their hands and feet tied up, their mouths and noses covered with black tape, a full image of victims.

However, he looked down at the shackles on his feet and shook them off.The shackles made a "crash" sound on the water.Crisp and pleasant.He couldn't help but want to roll his eyes at the man on the water.

Li Jing rubbed his body with a piece of soap and washed his hair.It feels like my hair is about to fall out.

After washing, he washed his dirty clothes with bath water in disgust, and then returned to the original room with the clothes.The original room was completely black, the walls should have been covered with light-absorbing wallpaper, and when the bathroom door was closed, nothing could be seen.

There is another door in the room, which should be the entrance and exit.However the door lacked any handle and appeared to have a small window.

Li Jing threw the clothes on the ground, and then wanted to open the door and take a closer look at the room.

However, the door began to close automatically.Li Jing was startled, and looked up carefully, it seemed to be an electronic automatic door.Maybe it can be controlled remotely?

He sat against the door, not wanting to go back into the dark room.Turning his back to the light, facing the darkness, helpless.He has no clue, but he can't give up thinking. After all, he has just been locked up. Following the train of thought of the perpetrator, he has to struggle for a while.
