I'm trapped in a cube

This hunter is a well-known freak in Oasis City.

The title on the nameplate is "Director".

The director carries his own camera with him at all times and always likes to point the camera at others.

But this time, he walked directly into the Trevi Fountain with a handheld camera.

The elf jumped out of the water on the side and looked at the camera in the director's hand curiously.

"My boss asked me to record the wish-making process." The director noticed that the elf had been staring at the camera in his hand, so he explained seriously.

"I know." Not only did the elf not object, but he also approached the camera: "Am I in the frame? Am I not cute now?"

The director glanced at the camera and nodded.

"Okay then, let's get started!"

"Action!"

The elf shouted to himself, and suddenly changed his state and put on a serious expression: "What is the thing you want most?"

It recited its lines in a fluent manner, and seemed to speak in a much more standard manner, but this seemed very pretentious.

"Just relax and act normally." The director looked at the elf's awkward look and couldn't help but complain.

His wish also appeared on the golden water flow on the side.

He has always wanted to be a real documentary director, filming the stories of the hunters' difficult adventures in the abyss, and showing the real horror and danger of the abyss to the people outside.

This is not only to commemorate the heroes who explored the abyss, but also to warn all those who underestimate the abyss...

"Don't be too pretentious, just pretend that my camera doesn't exist." The director said to the elf.

The elf nodded repeatedly and adjusted his "performance" according to the director's instructions.

"What is the thing you want most?"

"Don't lie."

It felt much more normal now, and the director nodded with satisfaction.

"I want to be an abyss documentary director to record the dangers and strangeness of the abyss." He replied calmly.

"Okay! I will grant your wish." The elf said with a smile.

He grabbed his hands forward, and a huge professional camera appeared in the elf's immature hands. It floated in the air, held up with difficulty, and swayed.

"Okay! This is a relic camera. As long as it is pointed at any person, it can record all of that person's experiences in the abyss in the third person."

"The price is that you have to feed it film. It doesn't matter what type it is. Just use one roll at a time."

"Are you satisfied?"

The director looked at the huge professional camera and shook his head: "I'm not very satisfied. It's inconvenient to carry this thing. You should know that the abyss is very dangerous. You can't even run with this thing."

"It seems so. It's very difficult to lift." The elf said in agreement.

It raised the camera and flicked it, instantly turning it into a compact handheld camera.

The elf took the handheld camera and turned it around a few times: "It's much easier now. Is it okay for you to try it?"

The director took the camera over, played with it for a moment, and praised: "It's pretty good, but it's a little hard to find film in the abyss. Can I exchange it for a price? It doesn't matter if I can't."

"Of course, I will satisfy you!" The elf didn't care about the director's request, but asked: "What price do you want? Is it easier? How about I change the price to pour some sand?" That’s it.”

"There is a lot of sand on the second level of the abyss, you should be able to find it easily." The elf said excitedly, seeming very satisfied with his suggestion.

The director thought for a moment and asked another question: "What if I go to the third floor?"

"That's right, I even forgot that you have to record the whole abyss thing." The elf scratched his head and started thinking again.

But the elf thought hard for a long time and couldn't think of any suitable price.

"Forget it, I'll change the price to 'shoot the camera three times with your hand every time you use it.' Then there should be no problem."

The director nodded: "It's very convenient, but isn't it too simple?"

"It doesn't matter, it's all my decision anyway." The elf said lightly: "Are you satisfied?"

"Very satisfied." The director replied seriously while holding the camera.

Really couldn't be more satisfied.

"Okay, if you are satisfied, then I will send you out." The elf flew back and forth in front of the camera and said happily.

But the director rejected it: "Don't send me out yet. I want to interview you with a few questions, okay?"

After hearing this outrageous request, the elf actually agreed and was very excited: "Of course! Just ask."

The director was a little surprised to see the elf accept the invitation so simply, but he still started asking questions step by step:

"Why do you want to grant human wishes?"

"Because I like humans."

"Are there any bad consequences of making a wish?"

"No, unless you lie."

"What is the price of making a wish to you?"

"You will forget your original wishes."

Forgot your wish?

Hearing this, the director felt very confused and asked: "My camera has recorded all my wishes. If I go out and see the video, I will remember it again. What's the use of this price?"

The elf spread his hands indifferently: "If you think about it, just think about it. The price has been paid anyway, and it's none of my business if you think about it again."

It doesn't care at all.

After the director asked a few more simple questions, he said to the elf: "Thank you, I'm done with the interview. Please send me out."

"Okay." The elf nodded.

The water flowed, and when the scene changed again, it was outside the wishing fountain.

This ends the content on the screen.

After watching this video, the conference room fell silent.

Not only the elves, but also the human director behaves a bit unexpectedly.

"Because of the director's video, we learned more about the Wishing Fountain. We also checked the camera relic, and it has exactly the same function as the elf said." The researcher explained.

"We found that elves are relatively pure and innocent about these thoughts, and have no malicious intentions. People who cannot lie have a very good attitude, will try their best to fulfill their wishes, and are very patient."

Hearing the researcher's words, the old man's frown relaxed a little: "Opening still needs to be put on the agenda. The population of Oasis City is increasing, and the relics are limited. We must make full use of various resources."

However, the middle-aged sergeant on the side still insisted on his own point of view: "I still do not recommend opening it up. Wish-making relics must be used with extreme caution. It is better not to use them than to take unknown risks."

"What do you think?" The old man turned his attention to the researcher.

Hearing this, the middle-aged sergeant also looked at the researcher, staring at him seriously.

Everyone present also looked at the researcher.

For a moment, his hand holding the electronic screen actually started to shake.

At this moment, he was the only one standing in the conference room, while everyone else was sitting. He saw various meanings in the eyes of those people.

Some are curious.

Some are encouraging.

There are also warnings.

Phew~

Taking a deep breath, the researcher finally made up his mind and expressed his opinion.

His voice was trembling.

"Open, but partially open."

“What does partially open mean?”

"Children first."
