After hovering over C for two seconds with his fingertips, Bai Yan finally sighed and chose B.
He wanted to smash the plesiosaur to death with a hammer, but the example of Guiying told him that ghosts cannot be killed.
After choosing B, Bai Yan watched himself shake Wu Jingang vigorously. Seeing that he was not awake, he raised his hand and slapped him fiercely on the face.
After a while, Wu Jingang finally woke up. His neck returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye. Bai Yan heard himself trembling and asked, "King Kong? Is it you?"
"It's me, what's the matter Yanyan, are you having nightmares again?"
"You don't remember what happened just now? Your neck..." Bai Yan saw himself gesticulating with his hand: "Your neck suddenly became so long, it's scarier than last night, and you twisted your neck to face my face Keep watching, it's too scary!"
"King Kong, I really didn't lie to you, you must be possessed by a ghost!"
After two consecutive nights of trouble, Wu Jingang also began to be skeptical. He touched his neck in wonder, and felt that his neck was still an ordinary neck, not at all the same as his wife's gestures, and as long as a goose neck.
At this time, Bai Yan had regained control of his body. Seeing Wu Jingang scratching his head and thinking, he narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, thinking that this could not go on.
On the first night, he just sat up and looked into the distance, and tonight he just stared at each other face to face. If this progress continues, the ghost will attack him tomorrow.
The game requires the player's actions to be in line with the logic of the characters. After experiencing a series of frights, Bai Yan should have enough reasons to start to suspect her husband.
After a little thought, Bai Yan was going to try to change the plot. Even a text adventure must follow the actions of the characters, and they cannot be forced to die.
So, Bai Yan tried to say to Wu Jingang: "King Kong, I'll go to sleep in another room later, you really scared me these two nights, if I sleep with you again, I won't be able to sleep tonight."
"Yanyan..." Wu Jingang was very unwilling. He still felt that there was nothing wrong with him. He was a little worried about Baiyan, wondering if she was stimulated by the events of that day and had mental problems.
"Yanyan, how about this, I'll go to sleep in that room tonight, I'll rest tomorrow, and go to the hospital with you to see a psychiatrist. You must be under too much pressure to have such hallucinations."
After comforting Bai Yan, Wu Jingang hugged the quilt and went to sleep in another room. After going through three multiple-choice questions in one day, Bai Yan felt that there should be no more accidents, so he closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.
…
The next morning, Wu Jingang got up early and was going to see a psychiatrist with Bai Yan.
However, before going out, he was notified that the company needed to work overtime.
Bai Yan knew that he didn't have any problems in his heart, and it was useless to go to the hospital. Besides, he had something to do in the morning, so he sent Wu Jingang to work overtime.
After Wu Jingang went out, it wasn't long before Bai Yan followed suit.
Before ten o'clock in the morning, he rushed to an easy-to-find cafe near the neighborhood.
Yesterday afternoon, he went out and printed a stack of missing person notices, which implied game information, and asked someone to help post them around. If the two players who entered the game with him saw it, they would wait in the cafe this morning and follow them. He rendezvous together.
I looked at the time, it was still early ten o'clock.
Bai Yan entered the cafe and looked around. He saw a woman in red sitting in front of a table for four. She was wearing a red dress and black pants, with a pair of red shoes on her feet, looking very energetic.
But what attracted Bai Yan was not her dazzling attire, but the three identical cups of coffee neatly arranged on her table, and the coffee inside had not been touched, as if they had just been delivered.
Opposite the woman in red was a high school student in school uniform.
The high school student was working hard on the test paper with a gel pen. Like the woman in red, there were three identical cups of coffee next to his paper. A total of six cups of coffee are placed on the table, which is more conspicuous than other tables and can be recognized at a glance.
So, Bai Yan walked over to the table and asked the two of them, "Are you the players in this game?"
Seeing the two nodding, Bai Yan pulled the chair next to the high school student and sat down.
The three of them gathered together, and the woman in red said, "I saw you in the community, I took the child with me that day, do you still remember?"
"I remember, your children were clamoring to play with dogs that day." Bai Yan said bluntly: "We are running out of time, the game has passed for two days, and it will become more and more difficult in the future. Everyone will share the information they know Come on, that's why I came here for you."
"Okay." The high school student said: "My name is Li Ming, and this is the name of the character I played in this game. I am a freshman in high school. My parents go out to work and I am raised by my grandparents. Half a month ago, My grandma died, my grandpa was sick and hospitalized a few days ago, and I am the only one living at home now."
"Li Ming, I'm in the freshman year of high school..." Bai Yan immediately responded, "Do you live in 303?"
"Yes." Li Ming replied calmly, "Do you know about my family?"
"I've met your grandma." Bai Yan smiled: "Your grandma seems to like making paper money dumplings. I wonder if you heard the sound of chopping meat at night."
"Not only did I hear it, but I made the dumplings together with her." Li Ming said the extremely horrifying words without changing his face: "I got a little stronger when I was hiding from poisonous insects. I'm really sorry for disturbing you."
"We are all neighbors, please be polite." Bai Yan said, "Since we are very close, the resident of 402 upstairs should be you, ma'am, right?"
"It's me." The woman in red nodded and said: "My name in this game is Yi Zihan. I have a husband and a pair of children. My eldest son is three years old this year, and my younger daughter has just turned ten months old. My daughter's grandmother lost her mind while she was guarding her, and unfortunately fell from upstairs a week ago and fell against the wall to her death."
After the two of them talked about the basic situation of the family, Bai Yan also began to explain his own situation: "My name in this bureau is Bai Yan, and I have a husband. Four days ago, a rapist entered the house and was crushed to death by Bai Yan. , At present, this ghost is possessed by my husband and appears every night, and most of my choices are related to him."
After listening to Bai Yan's answer, Yi Zihan asked suspiciously: "Why do you have a husband and use a girl's name?"
Bai Yan showed a polite smile, and continued: "I tried to choose a woman when choosing a gender, but the game assigned me the identity of a woman."
"Okay, I see." Yi Zihan looked very anxious: "The baby who fell to his death has climbed up to the fourth floor to trouble me every night for the past two days. Although I am not, Yi Zihan is its real mother It was her grandma who fell to her death, if she didn’t go to her, why did she have to come to me?”
Yi Zihan grabbed her hair, her eyes were bloodshot: "I've already consumed 4 resurrection coins, and if I die twice, I'm really going to die. It's only been three days! I really can't figure out why she insisted on You want to come to me for revenge, by the way, and, when I went out this morning, I met a dog, which is the one of the little girl you saw yesterday. I was bitten to death by this dog once in the corridor, and I endured it yesterday. I couldn’t stop kicking it, and today it turned into a ghost and came to me.”
"I know about dogs." Li Ming said while doing the paper: "Xu Feile and I are classmates. She called me last night and told me that her dog ate poisonous ham and was poisoned to death. , its death should have nothing to do with you."
"The dog turns into a ghost when it dies. This game is really interesting..." Bai Yan picked up Li Ming's coffee, took a sip, and said, "Did Xu Feile tell you where the dog died?"
"She died at Xu Feile's house. She also lives in our building, she lives in 502." Li Ming put down the pen in his hand and said, "Xu Feile wanted to send the dog to the pet hospital, but the dog died at home. Last night She buried her pet dog under a tree in the community, but she didn't expect that dog to become a ghost too."
"What about your grandma? How did she die?"
"Naturally die of old age, she is almost eighty, I'm sure no one killed her."
"..."
After listening to Li Ming's narration, Bai Yan fell into deep thought.
He originally thought that the ghosts in this game were for revenge, but now it seemed that it was more than that.
Liu Xiaotian, Guiying, and even the dog that turned into a ghost all said it in the past. After all, they all died abnormally, so they need to find someone. Revenge is reasonable, at least in line with the logic of the game. However, Grandma Li Ming's death broke this rule. She died of old age naturally and had no grievances or enmities with anyone.
It's impossible for her neighbors to offend her. She will never forget these neighbors until she dies, so she must give them some color, right
Bai Yan tried his best to find out the rules of the game through these clues. Xu Feile lives in 502, Yi Zihan lives in 402, he is 302, and when he gets disconnected from Li Ming, he is 303, regardless of the order of residence or grandma's Even if he dies, he is a maverick. Could it be that Li Ming is the key to this game
Bai Yan took a sip of coffee to refresh himself, always feeling that this kind of analysis was wrong.
Apart from Li Ming, they actually have one thing in common. All the ghosts, they all died in this building!
Liu Xiaotian was smashed to death by Bai Yan with a vase in the building, grandma died in the house, even the dog was poisoned to death after returning home, the ghost baby clings to the wall when it moves, and it clings to the base of the wall when it dies dead. Thinking of this, Bai Yan had a guess in his heart...
"Do you think that all the ghosts are caused by this building? Anyone who dies in this building will return as a ghost in the end?"
After Bai Yan conjectured, the other two began to think hard.
After a long time, Li Ming took out his mobile phone and looked at the text message, looked up and said: "Just now Xu Feile sent me a text message, saying that she saw the dog she raised last night. She slept with the door closed last night, and heard Huanhuan Chong She yelled at her door. She remembered that she had buried the dog downstairs at that time, and she was so scared that she insisted on staying up all night, and only dared to come out of the room when her parents woke up in the morning."
"That little girl is really annoying. She has nothing to do with a dog. She deserves to be poisoned to death." Maybe because she remembered what happened to her being bitten to death by a dog, Yi Zihan's face was very ugly: "Her dog is dead, but she is fine." However, I was bitten to death once. Every dog has its own owner. I heard that her dog was poisoned to death because of her dishonesty. Why didn’t she die with the dog? ?”
"If she is bitten to death by a dog, we will be in trouble." Li Ming's face changed slightly: "If it is true what Bai Yan said, after Xu Feile dies, we will face five ghosts tonight. The ghosts will continue to create the dead , the dead will become new ghosts after death, and the number of ghosts increases, so this text adventure... Will there still be an option that can definitely make people live?"
