Being an Extra Actor in an Escape Game

Right now, four separate scenes are playing out in the stream.

Three people walking down the stairs, Jiang Shuangmei, who just managed to leave her apartment unit, the Muscular and Shen Ynj pair exploring the ground floor, and Lin Qin.

All the other Missiontakers thought Lin Qin is still inside; they have all heard at least a little about how much he dislikes moving around, even in Nightmares, where he would stay in one place if he could help it.

This also contributes to people lamenting the waste of his absurd physical prowess.

Countless Missiontakers wish they had fighting strength as great as Lin Qin, and whatever they want, starting some tyrannical reign in the Tower, doing whatever they want in the Nightmares, anything they might want to do.

But Lin Qin Lin Qin more resembles some ascetic monk.

It really isnt surprising people say theres something wrong with him in the head.

He is so powerful physically, but he would still participate in the Nightmares as if he were any other Missiontaker; he does not go to higher floors at all, only hanging out on the bottom floor foreverLike some Missiontakers say, its like hes just here to bully newbies.

The Missiontakers cannot understand hismodus operandi, nor has Lin Qin himself ever bothered to explain.

X Beijin also knows now that Lin Qin is disinterested in Nightmares, and even the Tower in general. The underlying reason might tie heavily into the fact he has no memories of his days on Earth at all.

He does not know where he comes from. His memories began in the Tower. Naturally, he wouldnt think about leaving.

Besides, with that strength of his, even in the Tower, he is able to keep up the good life.

He is the crownless King of the bottom floor of the TowerMeaning, just look at the clothes he wear. They are all sent from the occasional Necessities Merchant who wanted to maintain a good impression.

While Lin Qin wouldnt say anything, but if he did meet a Necessities Merchant he remembered, or their subordinates, or other people who have displayed goodwill to him, if they asked and made it clear who they were, Lin Qin isnt stingy on offering small help either.

But more recently, Lin Qin seems to have changed as well.

X Beijin thinks so as he watches Lin Qin leave the apartment complex behind him.

Lin Qin happened to miss Muscular and Shen Ynj while leaving, and the man then aimlessly wandered about the apartment area.

He seems to be going after something, but nothing has come up. Then, he realises he could leave the apartment to head to the commercial complex, and quickly walks this way.

He clearly looks like he has a goal in mind. X Beijin is curiousWhatwouldhe be looking for?

Though X Beijin is also simultaneously curious about many other things.

In all four screens are notable things happening to the different Missiontakers. X Beijin is unable to keep up.

Nor can the audience, who are wailing already.

y do we only have two eyes!

why cant I watch two screens when I have two eyes!

help, im missing director Bei already

Beibei, plz change the cameras urself, im not gonna complain about how ill miss info on some players when theres only one screen, sob sob sob

Its a given some information will be lost when they only have eyes for one focus group in the stream, but putting everything up on the stream itself isnt helping at all!

Until an hour after the Nightmares started, with all the Missiontakers acting similarly in similar settings, the viewers were all bored, even; right now, with the Missiontakers all separate and exploring, the viewers feel like their eyes are no longer sufficiently equipped.

The whole screen of screams for separating scenes, please troubles X Beijin, because he also isnt sure which of the groups he should focus on.

Lin Qin? Yeah, he doesnt know whether Lin Qin would actually come across himIts possible; hes been through enough of that overly sharp instincts of Lin Qin.

As for Jiang Shuangmei, shes in the elevator, just having pushed on 1 when she suddenly wondersWhat if the elevator is also sentient?

Jiang Shuangmei, the teenage girl and the thin Missiontakers side seems calmer in generalSweeping across every corner of the apartment complex, floor by floor. If they missed them finding out something on the stream, then that clue is probably lost on them for good.

As for Muscular and Shen Ynj, theyre similar to the trio aboveAnd both X Beijin and the viewers know that the muscular man himself is the Carddealer. What if he tries to make a move against Shen Ynjs utility cards?

X Beijin is in a dilemma.

But thankfully, his dilemma is forcibly resolved soon enough.

Because Lin Qin is here.

How many minutes has it even been?!

X Beijin watched on the screen as Lin Qin headed directly for the open plaza on the underground floor Impossible! How could he know he was on this floor?

X Beijin is completely baffled.

He still reflexively picked a scene on the stream to show the viewers the one featuring Muscular and Shen Ynj, enlarging it and hiding the rest of the scenes. The viewers do not suspect a thing about his trying to hide the fact Lin Qin is visiting.

Soon enough, Lin Qin pops up at his bookstore entrance.

When he sees X Beijin, the young man looks so excited he is waving his hands as he walks in, saying, youre really here. I was worried you wouldnt be.

Before X Beijin could even spend time appreciating the dead accuracy of Lin Qins instincts, his words have piqued his curiosity, asking, wait, you were looking for me?

You could say that, Lin Qin rubs his chin, telling him, I wanted to tell you about two people Wait, would you still remember this after leaving the Nightmare?

I would, X Beijin answers, then asks, what two people?

Lin Qin nods, seemingly not curious why X Beijin remembers things after leaving NightmaresWhat hasnt been possible on Tower residents, you know? Missiontakers are so used to the quirkiness they have that Lin Qin wouldnt be surprised if anything was anything for them.

He explains, two people were casing outside of your home.

X Beijin pauses for a moment, before asking with a surprised tone, you mean in the Tower?

Yeah, replies Lin Qin.

X Beijin is curious now.

Why would two people be hovering outside his home so much Lin Qin even described them as casing? Why did Lin Qin even know about this? Most importantly Why did Lin Qin looks for him in the Nightmare to tell him?

Questions are flooding his mind.
