Zongman: Why is your comic full of knives?

"Ahhh! What the hell is this! Why does this plot appear?!"

"I never thought that I would feel so bad because of a little frog."

"Seeing that there weren't any extra options, I was devastated!"

"No matter what field you are in, you have to give me a razor blade, right?!"

"Please tell me what kind of mental state Lao Zei was in when he made this game and this option branch!!"

"The worst thing is that it took 2 hours to get a refund!!"

"I hate this puzzle game! But the excellent plot makes me want to continue playing!"

"Plot? What plot?"

"? ? Playing a puzzle game without reading the plot is like not having miso soup for breakfast! ?"

"Ahem, what I want to do is to complete the game first and then explore the plot. Can any big guy tell me what the plot of this game is about?"

"According to the story line collected from the current walkthrough, it is roughly like this:

Ellen is in poor health, no one ever plays with her, and her parents don't love her, so one day, she killed her parents, and then a demon came and ate them.

The demon brought Ellen to this forest, and thanked Ellen for giving it food, so it gave Ellen this house.

Then Ellen became a witch.

The demon said......If Ailian continues to help it find humans, it will teach Ailian a spell to cure diseases.

I think the protagonist should have been tricked into this place, and now what we have to do is to help her escape from this house"

"That's how it is!...Why do I feel like this story is a little too simple?"

"It's just a game, how complicated a story do you want?"

"To be honest, apart from the little frog content, the overall experience I have had is still very good. Although it is somewhat difficult, as long as you are careful, you can find a way to pass the level."

"As a newbie who is playing a puzzle game for the first time, the current rhythm of"303" makes me feel very comfortable."

"I hate horror elements, but I was scared"

"If you hate horror elements but still play this kind of game, aren't you just making yourself uncomfortable?"

"This is the first game released by the teacher, so of course I have to support it!"

"It is true love for sure!"

"After reading everyone's discussion, I have calmed down and decided to continue playing games."

"WTF! ? How did the guy above recover so quickly! ?"

"It's just a game. As long as I have no morals in it, I won't be sad about such a small thing."

"!! Thanks for the idea! I feel much better now!"

"I felt better instantly +1, and I was in the mood to continue playing!"

"......"

From these comments, it is not difficult to see what the players think.

Compared with works such as anime and light novels, the sense of immersion in games is obviously stronger.

Even a cute animal can make them feel so strongly.

Of course, not everyone will feel sad because of this.

After all, various side quests serve the characters, and nothing is more important than passing the level!

There are even some sharp players who frowned slightly at this time, sensing the problem with the plot.

"Strange."

Looking at the screen in front of her, Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned slightly.

She always felt strange about this part of the content.

Because it was a level set from the beginning of the game, no matter what decision was made, it was inevitable.

But......

"Too calm."

Even she was slightly stunned when she saw this option.

She hesitated about whether to proceed with this option.

But the protagonist in the game did not show any psychological fluctuations.

Even after the frog resisted, there was still the option of [Force it in].

If there was an additional description of hesitation or hesitation before this option of [Force it in], it would feel normal, right?

"The part that is worth paying attention to."

She made a note of this point that she thought was a little strange, and Kasumigaoka Utaha completed the selection without any hesitation.

The girl was very curious about this game.

She didn't know what kind of reversal was waiting for her.

"The story is a little too simple?"

It was only that Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't see such a statement, otherwise she would have sneered.

Looking at all the works of the other party since his debut, no story is simple.

For someone who is best at telling stories, how could he not have any arrangements for this kind of story-based puzzle game?

And what kind of reversal will appear is what the girl is most interested in right now.

Although it was already late, staying up late was already a common thing for her in high school.

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn't plan to rest before seeing the end of the story.

As she entered the next stage.

Kasumigaoka Utaha also discovered the new"Witch Diary" again.》

【After that, I X all the friends who came to play】

【Then, they were all eaten by this house.】

【But it's still not enough. 】

Looking at the words on the screen, Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned slightly.

Even though she knew that this was a very normal thing for a witch, she still felt very uncomfortable psychologically.

There was an inexplicable sense of oppression.

After writing down the story, Kasumigaoka Utaha continued to play.

The difficulty of this level has increased significantly compared to the previous one.

Even a very sharp player like Kasumigaoka Utaha died several times before she succeeded in passing it.

"As the game progresses, the difficulty increases."

This gradually increasing game difficulty is also extremely comfortable for the player's experience.

At least the gloomy background of the story and the darkness of the picture do not seem so strong under this sense of satisfaction.

Entering the next room, facing the crying statue, Kasumigaoka Utaha chose to talk.

Nothing special was triggered, and then she walked directly to the small door on the side.......

Two hours later, it was already a little after 2 a.m.

"This should be the end, right?"

Playing this kind of game on a night out is a test of one's mental quality.

Even Kasumigaoka Utaha was frightened by the"strange" things that suddenly moved in many places during this period.

"Strange."

Why is there a dead black cat in front of the door?"

She was a little confused, but she didn't think much about it.

She pushed open the door in front of her and entered the witch's room.

When she saw the environment in the house, even though she was already accustomed to the dark style of painting, she couldn't help but frown.

The blood all over the floor made people feel palpitating.

The bed sheet, which should have been white, was now stained with blood and turned crimson, which was shocking at first glance.

After a slight pause of a few seconds, Kasumigaoka Shiyu controlled the character to start exploring the house.

【There is an overturned cup on the ground】

【The bed was stained with blood. 】

Bookshelf

【There are several books about magic.】

【The mirror is foggy and I can't see anything.】

【Witch's Diary】

【Read】【Don't Read】

"This should be the last one, right?

What kind of story will it be?

With such curiosity, Kasumigaoka Utaha chose to read

【The disease is about to take my life]

Is this"I" referring to the witch?

Just like what the black cat said before, if I leave it alone, I will die soon.

【so......】

【I want her body]

At this moment, the game's BGM also became dark and gloomy, giving people a bad feeling.

【I want to get her body and continue to live]

It was just a line of ordinary words, but Zhang Fan felt a kind of madness from it, the madness of wanting to live even if it cost him anything!!

【Is this okay?】

【We are"friends"】

【She must be willing to donate her body】

"Contribute your body?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha paused at the same time, and began to sort out the various information she had obtained in her mind.

"I see. Is this the body-swapping magic I mentioned earlier?"

"The witch hid her identity, became friends with the protagonist, and tricked him here at this critical moment when he was about to die, in order to seize the protagonist's body!?

No, no.

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help shaking her head.

She clearly remembered that the note said that magic involving two people was usually not easy to release, because this kind of magic must be cooperated by the other party from the heart.!

If you want the magic to succeed, you must gain the trust of the other party!

The protagonist who has already found out everything, no matter how naive he is, will not be willing to let the witch use magic, right? (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Strange, very strange."

After pondering for a moment, Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head and gave up trying to figure it out.

She continued to click the mouse to read the subsequent story.

【......Because we are friends"】

【So you come to play with me today......】

【Right, Xiaowei?】

When the last line of words appeared in front of her at a very slow speed, before Kasumigaoka Utaha could make any move, the picture in front of her flashed, and the originally dim picture was completely shrouded in a dark tone.

"Bang."

A sound like something was smashed rang in my ears.

Then a head of purple hair, only the upper body, and empty eyes appeared from the other side of the screen. There was no doubt that this was the"Witch""

"The witch slowly crawled towards Viola, and the subtitles appeared.

【Half-length girl:......Um......Eh......oh......】

When this line of subtitles appeared, the save prompt also popped up.

There is no doubt that the story has reached the end.

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha did not rush to save, and the confusion in her eyes became more and more���

"Strange."

It's really too strange!

Even if the"witch" is dying, she shouldn't look like this, right?

That miserable look makes her look more like a victim than a villain!

"Is there something I overlooked?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed, knowing that even if she thought about it further, it would not lead to any results, so she saved a file...........

The final chase began.

It was called a chase, but in reality it was just a chase, and the consequences of being caught up were self-evident.

After failing several times, Kasumigaoka Utaha finally left the house.

"Is this the end?"

With this thought in mind, Kasumigaoka Utaha controlled the character and headed towards the place where they came from at the beginning.

They came to the place where the player was awake at the beginning of the game, and at this location, for some reason, there was an extra letter.

"Is there any new information?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes lit up and she decided to read it.

That was the first half of the letter.

【Viola: I shouldn't have yelled at you yesterday. I apologize.】

【A long time ago, there was a legend here. It was said that there lived a witch in that forest who would kidnap lost children.】

【Your friend's house was very close to the woods, so I was very worried about you.】

【Is your friend called Ailian? Go to her place.]

The content of the letter ends here.

"So the original text should be [It's okay to go to her place, just don't go too far in the woods. Go home early——Dad], is that right?"

It looks like an ordinary family letter.

Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed in disappointment:"There is no new information."

She had already known the contents written in it, having played to the end.

Without stopping, he controlled the character to walk down.

Facing the enchanted rose, he also destroyed it with the props collected in the house before, and then went all the way down.

Next is the ending animation that is not controlled by the player.

As the screen paused briefly, a man with a shotgun in his hand and a white towel on his shoulder appeared on the screen.

After a simple animation

【Viola's father: Viola?! Are you okay?! Are you hurt?】

【Viola's father: Ha, I'm glad you're okay.

The background music also became cheerful at this moment, as if celebrating the upcoming happy ending.

The dark picture also became bright at the same time.

【Viola's father: It's so late, and you haven't come back yet, so I came to the woods to look for you】

"How ironic."

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but sigh.

"The parents of the"witch" did not like her, which led to a series of tragedies.

Even though Viola's father knew that there was a"witch" living in the forest, he cared more about his child's safety than his own!

Even if everything ahead was unknown, whether he would encounter any danger, these seemed unimportant in front of Viola's safety.

Kasumigaoka Utaha clicked the mouse, and the story continued

【Viola's father: I'm glad you're okay. Let's go home and not get wet in the rain. 】

The man wanted to take his daughter out of the forest.

But after taking a few steps, the cheerful background music disappeared, and the bright colors dimmed at this moment. The two turned around.

A purple-haired"witch" was seen, dragging her broken body, with blood dripping from the broken wounds, leaving a trail of blood behind her, crawling towards this side with great difficulty.

3.5 [Half-body Girl:......yeah......Walk......】

【Half-length girl:......Yo ~......Yo ~......I......ah......】

As the"witch" got closer, the father stood in front of Viola without hesitation.

【Viola's father: Viola, stand back! 】

Several gunshots.

The"witch", who was like a broken doll, fell in a pool of blood.

On a rainy night, the breeze blew, and the"witch" turned into ashes and dissipated in the sky.

The man took the girl and walked out of the forest.

As the background music sounded, the curtain call appeared.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was in deep thought, and the subtitles kept rolling.

With the final【END？】The screen flashed and returned to the title of the story.

"Is this ending really hypocritical?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but sigh.

【END？】

This is not just a hint, it's a direct slap in her face that the ending she saw was fake.......

"What exactly was overlooked?"

And what about those vague words from the witch? If we just think about the latter, there will obviously be no answer, but if we connect all the information we have collected, the former will be......

Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned and replayed the plot on paper with her amazing memory.

"By the way, the story mentions a demon.

It was the demon who turned"Ellen" into a"witch".

So who is the demon? Does he appear in the story?......

Kasumigaoka Utaha was startled, with a look of astonishment in her eyes.

She looked down at the paper in her hand for review, and then a look of fear appeared on her face.
