Absurd deduction game

After thinking about it, Yu Xing immediately controlled the pixel villain, walked to the first row of seats, hid under it, and quietly waited for the arrival of the female ghost.

Sure enough, not long after, the terrifying female ghost entered the game console screen at almost the speed of rushing over. The huge ax swung as she walked, and she rushed straight into the confession room, mouth He let out a laugh that sent chills down his back.

The moment the female ghost entered the confession room, Yu Xing did not let the pixel villain wait in place. He immediately used the fastest speed he could control to control the protagonist Ye Qin into the last position of the rows of seats. , hiding at the stairway to the second floor. This position is just around the corner, and you can see the overall view of the prayer hall.

He felt that the female ghost had clearly heard the sound this time and would not check as hastily as before. Perhaps she could even look under each row of seats, so to be on the safe side, he could not let the pixel villain stay there.

Sure enough, there was an earth-shattering roar in the confession room. The female ghost entered the confession room but saw no one. She angrily stuck her head out and split the first row of seats with an ax without any warning.

Good guy, this is more straightforward than Yu Xing imagined.

Yu Xing stared at the female ghost's every move. The female ghost seemed to have determined that there was someone here. She chopped all the seats wantonly, from beginning to end.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately controlled the pixel villain to walk up the stairs to the second floor. The screen suddenly changed the scene and came to the location upstairs.

The upstairs looks a little brighter than the first floor, because there are pillars lit with flames on all sides of the hall. There are relatively few seats next to the pillars, and there are some wooden barrels with unknown uses.

In addition to the hall, there are many closed rooms on the second floor. There is nothing in Yu Xing's item list, and most of the rooms cannot be opened. He raced against time to push them one by one, and only opened the last room.

After entering the house and closing the door, Yu Xing looked at the new room. He found that this room was a little larger than he thought. It had all kinds of furniture that should belong to a bedroom. There were standing cabinets and a bed. The bed was covered with a layer of neat and tidy clothes. The quilt is a bit wide and hangs down low.

He was thinking that the overall area of ​​the church did not look large, with only two floors in total. If the three brothers and sisters were all here, then it would be possible for him to meet the other two people, just like what was written on Ye Ting's information paper .

And where should those two people hide? If there were no secret passages and secret rooms, perhaps they would be hiding in these rooms.

And now the protagonist of the game is Ye Qin, so Ye Ming and Ye Ting should be equivalent to NPC characters in this game, and they may have the clues he needs.

Yu Xing thought for a while and controlled the pixel Ye Qin to hide in the cabinet in the room. Since this is not a first-person game, even if Ye Qin hides in, Yu Xing's perspective is still in the entire room. When the female ghost arrives, he will have Enough room to react.

Once he stopped moving, Ye Qin began his mental activities.

[It’s so scary. If this female ghost’s hearing is so good, wouldn’t she be able to hear everything I do? 】

[How can I hide now? The person who wrote in blood to remind me wouldn’t have been killed by the female ghost long ago, right? I don't want to die. By the way, where is the church door? Why didn’t I see it? 】

[Whether I can leave successfully or not, I have to find the church door first. 】

This is equivalent to giving Yu Xing a task. In addition to wanting to go to the confessional, Yu Xing has another goal, which is to find the church door.

But he couldn't go out yet, he had to survive the female ghost's round of inspections first. He kept waiting until five minutes later, when he heard the high-frequency footsteps of the female ghost coming from outside the door.

The female ghost opened the door of this room.

From the prayer hall on the first floor to here, the female ghost seemed to have lost so much patience and confidence that "there is someone here". After entering the door, she looked around and then walked towards the bed.

The female ghost's IQ was obviously not low. She also knew how to look under the bed. The female ghost's rather large figure slowly came to the edge of the bed, then her waist bent straight down and she tilted her head to look under the bed.

Anyone who chooses to have their character hide under a bed is in trouble now.

But this was the opportunity that Yu Xing was waiting for. When he opened the cabinet door and hid in it, he had already determined that the cabinet was not rusty. The sound of opening the door was almost silent and very slight. But now the door was wide open, and the female ghost He has no habit of closing the door casually. This is a good opportunity for him to get out of this room!

He immediately let the pixel villain get out of the cabinet and walked quietly out of the door. Because he was decisive and fast enough, almost the moment he left the room, the background on the game console screen changed to the female ghost. He also straightened up from the bed.

Fortunately, it was not discovered.

He walked quickly without stopping, and saw that due to the female ghost's previous violent break-in, several rooms that were locked just now had now been opened. However, his goal was very clear, and he did not waste time to go in and search, but immediately returned to the original route. , went downstairs, passed through the rows of benches, and returned to the confessional.

The door of the confessional has also been opened by the female ghost.

Yu Xing came to the door and triggered a new dialog box.

[Oh my God, this door seems to have been broken by a female ghost. I need to be careful. It seems that I can only squeeze through sideways. 】

The little pixel man in the game interface indeed squeezed into the confessional room bit by bit at a slow speed.

Yu Xing began to look at the layout of the confession room.

This place is different from upstairs. It is very crowded. There is an independent space separated by wood. After Pixel Ye Qin walked in, he did not trigger anything immediately.

He let the pixel villain move around and even entered the separated space, but it was as empty as the prayer hall, with only traces of decay left by the erosion of time.

There are a lot of spider webs in the prayer room. Of course, in the pixel game, the spider web is a round spider web symbol with many lines mixed together. When he looked at it, one or two small spiders crawled across the spider web.

Didn't trigger any plot?

Not even the props or files were picked up.

Yu Xing was not very willing. He felt that there shouldn't be nothing here. At least what the "I" said in the first piece of information paper should be heard by him.

[This place is very eerie, but I didn't find anything. 】

[Perhaps I should check out a more valuable room? Take the utility room for example. Generally speaking, there are always missing clues in the utility room that have not been taken away. 】

Pixel Ye Qin said so, but Yu Xing didn't listen.

He was thinking that all the female ghosts were looking for them like this. Although the target was said to be him, this kind of blanket search did not find Ye Ting and Ye Ming, which meant that there should be spaces similar to secret passages and secret rooms in this place.

And the confessional room... He had already thought about it, maybe he should find a priest's clothes to wear before coming here, because the person who listened to "my" confession at that time was the priest, not Ye Qin.

Yu Xing listed several goals in this scary little game.

One, look for the church door.

Second, find the priest's clothes and re-enter the confessional.

Third, find out if the female ghost is afraid of anything.

Fourth, look for secret passages or secret rooms to find Ye Ting and Ye Ming who are hiding.

Taking advantage of the fact that the female ghost seemed to be still on the second floor, he decided to find the location of the church door first.

Under Yu Xing's button operation, the pixel villain began to run quickly around the first floor. The sound of his footsteps was still light, not enough to attract the attention of the female ghost who was not on the same floor.

After all, this is a small game, and the map on the surface is not big. He quickly found the hidden church door on the back of another staircase on the first floor.

To be honest, there cannot be a church in reality. If the gate is built in such a remote place, it will look very petty and unworthy of publicity.

He tried pushing the door, but it turned out that he couldn't push it. The door lock had clearly signaled to him that he needed a key.

[What a shame. Although I don’t know if the door leading outside the church is my attic, but at least I have another task now, which is to find the key. 】

[But isn’t that too desperate? If I remember correctly, when I peeked at the female ghost just now, I seemed to see the key on her waist. 】

[Am I going to steal a female ghost? I don't want to die yet. But if I don’t steal, who knows when I will be able to go out! Otherwise... or else we should first find other living people in the church and discuss it with them. 】

Pixel Ye Qin obviously put the word "Cong Xin" in the dialog box. He didn't dare to steal the key from the female ghost, and Yu Xing... didn't dare either.

The limitations of the game's operation are too great. If it were him, he would definitely show off his skills bravely, but now there is only this little pixel villain, unable to fight back against the female ghost.

The matter of leaving the church directly through the gate had to be slowed down first, and for Yu Xing, doing so was meaningless. What he wanted to pursue was not to escape from the church, but to find clues.

At this moment, Yu Xing was very sharp and noticed that there was a piece of paper scattered in the corner on the back of the stairs. If he hadn't been able to see the overall situation, he might have missed it.

It should be a new clue!

He operated the pixel man and picked up the paper. Sure enough, a piece of yellowed paper popped out on the page, with clear writing on it.

[From my observation, there are no bells in this church. Time has stayed at this moment forever. There is no doubt that I have been abandoned by this world. This place is really depressing to me. I don’t like it here at all. I want to go back. I wonder how Ye Qin is doing now. Does he still remember me? Maybe you remember it, but you won’t remember it soon. My memory was also starting to blur, and I didn’t know how long I could stay awake. In fact, we have done nothing wrong. Why should we hurt those of us who are the victims? Wait, why did I say victim? 】

This information paper only mentioned Ye Qin's name. According to Yu Xing's guess, it should belong to Yu Wan.

Let's regard this piece of paper as Yu Wan's confession for the time being. Then Yu Wan is indeed a paranormal enthusiast. Her thinking is much clearer than the other three people, and she has even noticed her own memory problem.

After Yu Xing read the information, the paper bounced back and disappeared, and a small line of words appeared at the top of the game screen.

[Collected information can be viewed in the data collection on the main page]

In the game, Pixel Ye Qin has gone crazy because of this piece of paper.

【What's the meaning? What does it mean? Yu Wan is also here, and has she been here for a long time? Was she the one who wrote me a letter in blood just now? 】

[Impossible, she was still in class with me at school during the day, how could she be here already? So who is the person taking class with me? What a ghost story...can anyone tell me if she is safe, this is the worst case scenario, I have to go find her, hope she is alive, she must be alive! 】

Ye Qin, who had never shown his admiration for Wan, was obviously very worried at this time. His forbearing feelings became more deadly when they broke out. Even Yu Xing felt that he had some difficulty in controlling the pixel villain. The specific manifestation is—— If he clicks to go right, the villain will stay where he is; if he clicks to go left, the villain will go up...

Fortunately, this situation only lasted for a minute. After a minute, the pixel villain took the initiative to say——

[I want to calm down and not get into trouble. The prerequisite for finding Yu Wan is that I survive in the hands of the female ghost. 】

Afterwards, Yu Xing's control of the pixel villain became normal.

He started knocking around in the prayer hall, interacting with everything that could be interacted with, and finally found a strange place inside the pulpit.

The dialog box prompts that there seems to be a button that can be rotated. I wonder what the consequences will be if you press it.

Yu Xing felt that this was the entrance button to the secret passage, but now he didn't want to know what the consequences would be if he pressed it. The consequence would be that the female ghost would hear the sound and cut him into pieces.

He turned back to the utility room and decided to look for anything belonging to the priest in the utility room first, preferably the priest's clothes.

The door of the utility room was also opened due to the destruction caused by the female ghost just now. As expected, this kind of small game does not go beyond the routine of ordinary games. The priest's clothes were placed on the table in the utility room. Yu Xing stepped forward and chose to pick up the items. , the first grid in the tool bar is occupied by an icon that looks like a piece of clothing.

The pixel villain put on this dress and returned to the confession room again. This time, as soon as he stepped into the confession room, he heard the conversation coming from the headphones.

"Father, I confess."

"This funeral today could have been avoided. The love of my life killed my children and hurt innocent people with his own hands."

"Now there is so much resentment in my house. They will turn into demons and return to the world. I can't let this happen. The tragedy has already happened. I must take action to prevent them from spreading fear to a wider area."

This was the voice of a middle-aged man. It was very difficult for the man to speak, and every word he spoke was as sad and painful as being cut by a knife.

Then an older and kinder voice asked the man:

"My child, what are you going to do?"

"I'm sorry, Father, I have to do something like the devil. I will use my own flesh and blood as a sacrifice to seal them in the house forever, including my beloved."

The old priest said: "God, do you know that you are making a deal with the devil, and God may not forgive you."

"I know, I'm sorry, Father, I know it. I don't long for God's forgiveness. You also know that I am not a believer. Compared to other people's piety, I don't care at all. As long as it can end all this, I am willing to sacrifice myself .”

After finishing speaking, Yu Xing's earphones heard the sound of footsteps gradually disappearing, as if the middle-aged man had left the confession room.

The priest was left with a faint sigh: "This will not be salvation. You will not only sacrifice yourself, but also the spirit and soul of the victim."

At this point, Yu Xing could no longer hear any conversation.

He lowered his eyes, thought about what he just heard, and had a certain understanding of the origin of the matter.

This should be the father of the three brothers and sisters. The love he said was his mother. The mother killed her children and an innocent person. The innocent person should be Yu Wan.

In other words, my mother killed the three siblings and Yu Wan, and then my father thought that the dead people were about to turn into ghosts - maybe he had been harassed by ghosts after the tragedy.

In order to prevent the birth and continuation of the resentful spirit, his father used his own flesh and blood as a sacrifice to seal the resentful spirit in the house, so Yu Xing saw his father in the refrigerator twice because his father sacrificed his flesh and blood.

But in the process of sealing, he may have also sealed his mother here. This caused the three brothers and sisters who were just ghosts to live in the same room with their murderer for a long time. The fear of their mother gradually blurred the image of her in their minds. , turned into a female ghost holding an axe.

And because of this seal, they have been wandering in the house for many years, unable to leave or escape.

Yu Xing remembered Ye Qin's psychological description on the scroll. The house was very old, but his father had never decorated it.

Perhaps that actually symbolizes that Ye Qin's ghost has been wandering in the house for many years, witnessing the house gradually being eroded by time from brand new to an old house, and his father has been dead for a long time, so of course it is impossible to care about it.

As time goes by, the three brothers and sisters in the house have blurred their understanding of themselves. What they remember most is probably the "female ghost" who killed them and the funeral held in the church.

But why do they always enter from the attic when they enter the church in the spiritual world?

At that time, something special must have happened in the attic, or something special must have been placed.

What exactly it is, Yu Xing still doesn’t know, and he will explore it later, but it is obvious that the essence of the deduction he experienced is to save himself from the wandering ghost trapped in the house.

While Yu Xing was thinking, in the game, he heard the footsteps of the female ghost walking this way again. Because he didn't make any sound this time, the female ghost just wandered over as usual, walking slowly.

Yu Xing tried to get into the space separated by the wooden board. The female ghost came in and looked around for a while, ignored the space, and left again carrying the axe.

So far, apart from her higher hearing, this female ghost doesn't seem to have any other particularly difficult characteristics. Yu Xing can only guess that Ye Ming and Ye Ting were chased around by the female ghost in this game, either because of the plot. It needs to be that either they are really bad at playing games, or they still have the memory of being killed by their mother in their subconscious, so they are extremely afraid of female ghosts and cannot form an effective resistance at all.

He frowned and waited for the female ghost to go away, then got out of the confessional and came to the back of the pulpit.

This time he chose to turn the button.

As expected, a very penetrating sound resounded through the headphones. Such a huge sound, let alone a female ghost, could be heard by any normal person anywhere in this church.

But what is somewhat surprising is that the sound is not the rumbling sound of the friction of building materials, but the sound of many bells shaking together, crisp and messy.

The statue began to rotate, and a secret door appeared behind the statue. Along with the sound of bells, there was the sound of chains colliding, but there were no chains on this secret door at all.

Yu Xing immediately thought of the chains and bells on the door of the master bedroom diagonally opposite his room. Once it was rung, it would probably have the same effect. Of course, the sound would never travel as far as in the game.

But the symbolic meaning contained in it is already very obvious. This secret door that will attract the attention of the female ghost and start a chase symbolizes the master bedroom in the house that is surrounded by chains. Perhaps in the subconscious mind of the deduction subject, the secret door opens The master bedroom was like opening a secret door, which meant something he didn't want to face.

Yu Xing stared at the secret door on the game screen. The female ghost had already heard the sound and saw the character he was controlling. He did not control the pixel villain to rush in, but——

He quit the game.

When he pressed the exit key, an option box popped up on the screen, reminding him that the game had been archived and that the next time he started the game, he would continue from the archived location.

Yu Xing smiled.

Although it was a little simpler than expected, he had indeed found all the information he wanted to know. The secret door did exist, but there would be no Ye Ming and Ye Ting inside the secret door. This was what he found after hearing the sound of the bell. It was surmised in a moment.

This game has no value to him anymore. He will not open it again. What he has to do next is to survive in the world he is in now and find something that can wake up these wandering ghosts.
