Absurd deduction game

There is indeed something strange in this room...

Yu Xing bent down to pick up the pair of shoes and looked at them with eyes that showed no emotion.

This is a pair of embroidered shoes.

The red shoe has small flowers embroidered with darker red thread, which are very delicate, as if they were made by the best embroiderer.

Except for the subtle aura of curse hanging over it, it is just a pair of ordinary shoes that feel cold to the touch.

Yu Xing narrowed his eyes.

That's right, it's not an ordinary ghost aura, but a curse aura.

The ghost energy represents that there is a ghost lingering here, and the curse atmosphere represents that this incident involves some kind of curse carrier. The method of dealing with it is no longer to deal with a certain ghost, but to find the point that breaks the situation like decryption. .

The coldness in the room lingered, but it was not overtly aggressive, as if they were unconscious dissociated molecules that could only wander slowly.

"The curse... traces of ghost activity left behind..." He glanced at the embroidered shoes in his hand again, went to the balcony of the hall, quietly opened the window, looked out to confirm that there were no pedestrians below, and threw the embroidered shoes out.

A pair of red shoes flew far away under his strength and fell into the green grass in the distance, leaving no trace behind.

After doing this, Yu Xing cast his eyes on the paper man next to the TV cabinet, thinking about the possibility of throwing the paper man down as well.

The face of the paper man is painted with strong and bright colors, the mouth is straight, and the facial features outlined in ink are significantly different from those of humans. They are not as vivid as the paper man in the first stage of the mission.

The curse aura on his body is not as strong as on his embroidered shoes.

It looks like just an ordinary little paper man.

"never mind."

The embroidered shoes can be said to have appeared out of thin air and would not be noticed if thrown away. The paper figures were decorations that had always been there. If they disappeared, Zhou Xue would definitely find them.

Yu Xing let it go and approached Zhou Xue's bedroom.

Although as a man, he should not look into the bedroom of a strange girl, but these are extraordinary times, and he can only do this kind of happy - ah, no, sad thing.

He didn't rummage around in the bedroom, but only took a few glances at the desk. There were several pages of messy draft paper on the desk, which contained some ideas about the world. However, in Yu Xing's view, the writing on them was fragmented and a little bit. There is no correlation at all, as if something comes to mind frequently and is written down immediately to prevent forgetting.

As for the content, it's all about "nightmares."

The current plot structure of this game is that the male character played by the player gets into a car accident on the way to travel. A red figure flashes in front of the bus, causing the driver to brake suddenly, but the road is slippery in the rain and falls into the cliff.

After waking up from a coma, the protagonist found himself in a very retro mansion. He was dressed in servant's clothes and was ordered by the housekeeper who appeared in the yard to add firewood.

The protagonist, who still had doubts in his heart, started to work temporarily with panic and helplessness, but in the kitchen he heard the cooks talking about the happy events in the house.

This lets the protagonist know that this mansion actually bought a beautiful woman to accompany the young master who committed suicide not long ago!

The woman was unwilling and committed suicide last night. However, the master of the house not only did not feel guilty or afraid, but instead ordered the wedding to be prepared as usual.

Because that woman was also going to die.

Very unscrupulous behavior.

The protagonist guessed that he was brought here because of the bride's resentment, and decided to ruin this "happy event", but failed.

After Yan Yan smiled, the entire mansion suddenly became gloomy, and everyone disappeared. It was gray and mottled, indicating that something was unusual here.

What follows is the protagonist's adventure in searching for clues to the truth in the ghostly mansion. The protagonist narrowly escapes death and finally wakes up in a hospital bed after learning the entire truth.

However, players will soon discover that in the ending CG, after the protagonist recovers from his injury and is discharged from the hospital, he hums an ancient ballad. That ballad is the one that the groom in the ghostly mansion likes to hum the most.

Whether the protagonist was influenced by the groom and became distorted in his heart, or whether the groom's soul was reborn with the help of the protagonist's body, the player no longer knows.

Yu Xing had already understood the plot in the morning, but because the game Nightmare was still in early development, the plot was very incomplete.

He couldn't glean much of the truth about the haunted house from the plot of this game.

Looking away from the scratch paper, Yu Xing walked to the closet and opened the door.

The only thing he wanted to explore when he entered the bedroom was the closet, because the bride's hand was sticking out of the butler's cabinet. There must be some reason for this.

Zhou Xue's wardrobe is a more girlish kind of white glass cabinet with double doors. Part of the transparent glass is inlaid in the pattern, allowing people to see several clothes in the wardrobe.

The cabinet made an odd squeaking sound, as if it was rusty.

Yu Xing pushed aside the layers of clothes with his hands and stared at the wall inside the closet.

As expected, fine scratches covered the cabinet wall, making this hidden corner look ferocious and terrifying.

"This house... has been gradually transformed under the influence of the curse." He murmured to himself, closed the cabinet, and walked out of the bedroom thoughtfully.

The moment he opened the door, a pair of red embroidered shoes fell into view.

Two embroidered shoes were placed together quietly outside the door, with the toes facing Yu Xing.

It was as if... there was an invisible person wearing these shoes, standing face to face with Yu Xing.

Raising his eyebrows, Yu Xing picked up the pair of shoes that were supposed to be thrown downstairs again and changed the direction of the toes.

What he wanted to check had already been checked. For him, the results were so impressive that there was no need to look any further.

If you want to successfully complete the task at this stage, you must find the cursed object before Zhou Xue dies and break the internal rules of the curse. Otherwise, even if you look closely at Zhou Xue, you may not be able to save her.

If the mission fails within five days...

Then it is not a problem of progress, but that the entire team will be wiped out by the deduction system because of mission failure.

The cursed thing is not in this house, there are only remnants here and no source.

In other words... the thing he was looking for should be on Zhou Xue's body, and he should be carrying it with him.

He left Zhou Xue's house and looked back before leaving. The red embroidered shoes were still facing him persistently.

Yu Xing: "..."

Quite stubborn.

He erased all traces of the break-in and closed the door calmly, as skillfully as if he had done it many times.

[cooking makes it hurt]

[Skilled enough to make the victim feel distressed]

[What is this lock-picking ability in reality? Is it... a locksmith? ]

[The desire to survive upstairs]

[Hahahahaha]

Yu Xing returned to the stairwell and suddenly found that he had nowhere to go.

The two girls probably need to eat for a while, he...

He stood there in deep thought for twenty seconds. Being completely enveloped by the cold air, he trembled and let out an unhappy snort.

So he opened Zhou Xue's door for the second time, entered the bedroom, and then... opened the window.

There is no window sill outside the bedroom window, not even a security window. There is only a ledge that is less than half a decimeter.

Next to it is the bedroom window of the character played by Zhao Ruru.

[What do you want to do? ]

[How do you open this window?]

[Even if you can hold on to this one, it’s impossible to get up to the Gua Master’s window]

[Isn’t it going to fall directly?]

Yu Xing turned over and went out of the window, the toe of his shoe touched the edge of the window, and he grabbed the window frame with one hand.

He looked at it, pinched the side instead, and then closed the window with this difficult posture.

After that, he glanced at Zhao Ruru and jumped without any hesitation!

There is really no point of strength there for a man with inertia to stabilize his figure, no matter how skilled he is.

Under Danmaku's nervous gaze, Yu Xing first raised his hand, and then——

With a pop, the sharp blade entered the wall.

Half of the dagger blade in the Qingmeng Land was sunk into the white wall, and the remaining part shone coldly in the pale moonlight.

Yu Xing's figure swayed twice before he managed to stabilize himself and stepped on the Yanbian.

Tsk, it’s Zhao Ruru’s “home” anyway, and if you poke a small hole... nothing will happen at all!

Yu Xing opened the window and entered the house easily and flexibly, thinking happily.

…

the other side.

Zhao Ruru, who had no idea that there was an extra person in his bedroom more than forty minutes ago, and that person shamelessly turned on the air conditioner and checked his cell phone in the room, prepared the meal and called Zhou Xue to the dining table.

The air conditioner in the living room is also running, and the warm air is constantly blowing, which along with the hot meals, gives people a sense of stability.

Zhao Ruru is indeed an expert at collecting intelligence. Under her emotional guidance, Zhou Xue, who was confused by her full empathy, roughly told what happened recently.

"It started about a month ago when I went to the cemetery to pay homage to my grandma. Over the past month, I have always had dreams..."

Zhao Ruru was picking up food for her at the side: "Tell me about it?"

"In dreams, I, I always wake up in bed at first and don't realize it's a dream." Zhou Xue had a bad appetite, coupled with the recent lack of good sleep and nervousness, she didn't eat much at all. Put down the chopsticks.

"Then I could hear a man's voice, and he seemed to be in my bedroom, and I panicked. I searched and searched the room, and the man just kept laughing."

Zhao Ruru remembered the "laughter" mentioned in the deduction prompt.

"I wanted to call the police, but I couldn't find my phone. I wanted to run out, but the door was locked. I had this dream every night. This was the beginning. Later, I gradually found some clues about the man. , he started talking,"

Zhao Ruru thought that if Zhou Xue and Liu Xue were related, then the man in the dream would most likely be the ghost groom.

She asked: "Did he say anything, threaten you?"

"No, he would tell me..." Zhou Xue didn't need to recall carefully, those words were as clear as if they were engraved in his soul.

"Come with me, don't hide anymore, you can't hide... Go back, go back and complete what you should do, worship in peace and order, and be a crying bride..."

The tone was gloomy, as if Zhou Xue was describing the way the man spoke in the dream, and the deep voice contained undisguised malice and confusion, which made Zhao Ruru frown.

Let modern Zhou Xue stop hiding and be a good bride?

Could it be that Zhou Xue is actually the reincarnation of Liu Xue in this era?

Good guy, the groom is so cruel, won’t he let her go even after reincarnation?

Zhao Ruru's thoughts were divergent, while Zhou Xue was completely immersed in her own fear.

"Of course I would not agree in the dream. When the man's voice disappears, a woman's voice will appear immediately. She is hysterical, screaming, cursing, and all harsh words... But I don't know why, as soon as I hear it, With her voice, the fright I received from men would calm down, as if... I felt in the dream that she was not cursing me, but cursing the man who wanted to take me away."

There was a faint redness in Zhou Xue's eyes, which was a sign that she was about to cry. She glanced at Zhao Ruru: "When I woke up, I told my parents about this on the phone, but they would only say, 'Oh my God, Axue is fine. Right? Why don't you take a day off to see a psychiatrist?' Or, 'Do you want your parents to stay with you? You must be under too much pressure and have hallucinations.' They thought they cared about me, but... …”

"But I can't even do the most basic belief..."

Zhao Ruru quickly comforted and expressed his position: "I believe you! There are so many weird things in this world, you are just unlucky to have encountered them!"

The harm caused by bad luck is almost negligible compared to the fact that no one believes it.

Zhou Xue still cried. She pulled two napkins to wipe her tears and said, "Thank you!"

Zhao Ruru stroked her back and whispered: "What happened next? Did your dream change?"

"Yes, as I dreamed more and more, the figures of the man and woman also emerged. The man still wanted me to go with him. I checked the information and they said I can't let go, otherwise the ghost will take care of me. Killing people alive, so I kept asking him to give up. But then, he took a knife..."

"What kind of knife?" Zhao Ruru asked.

"I don't remember... I can't remember many things I saw in my dreams when I wake up. I can only think of them when I dream again. Anyway, in the recent dream, the man seemed to have wanted to kill me with his own hands. And. That woman... I saw her clearly recently. She is a female ghost!" Zhou Xue grabbed Zhao Ruru's hand, "Her face and body were covered in blood. She was wearing a bright red wedding dress and her face was ferocious. I'm so Fear……"

"She screamed at me and told me to smash the jade, but I wouldn't! If the jade is gone, they will kill me immediately. They are all waiting for me to die!"

Jade?

Zhao Ruru's heart moved: "What jade? Is there really such a piece of jade? Why do you think they can kill you without the jade? Could it be that jade has been protecting you?"

Zhou Xue pressed her heart, seeming a little wary and a little nostalgic: "Yes, my grandma gave it to me before she passed away. She knew a lot of strange things. After moving to the city, no old man was willing to talk to her. My grandma played with me. She has been lonely because of this piece of jade... She said that this piece of jade can protect me from being hurt."

"Excuse me for asking." Zhao Ruru saw that Zhou Xue was very fond of the so-called jade treasure and was unwilling to say more even to her, so she did not pursue the question, but asked another question, "What is your grandma's name?" name?"

Zhou Xue was a little confused: "Is this important?"

Zhao Ruru said seriously: "It's important. You see, you were plagued by nightmares after paying homage to your grandma. Maybe these two ghosts have something to do with your grandma. I think we should try to check your grandma's identity." The problem, maybe the solution lies in it.”
