On the evening of November 10th.
Mama Ai fell in love with Mr. Rong, and immediately decided to get married, and sent out invitations for everyone.
At the same time, Actor Ming also planned to get married. After receiving the invitation, he went to Mr. Rong to discuss whether he should hold the wedding together. Mr. Rong agreed.
Therefore, at 8:00 pm on November 11th, two couples will hold their wedding ceremony in the old castle.
This incident gradually reached the ears of every guest in the castle, and everyone was quite curious.
Through these two days of getting along, they knew that actor Ming was in love, but they still didn't know the identity of the man Ming actor loved.
On the morning of November 11, the seven people living in the castle had breakfast together in the main hall.
During the period, they discussed how to hold the wedding at night.
After discussion, it was decided that Boss Mei would be the master of ceremonies for the wedding, while sister Mei and Mengyou would be the bridesmaids for the two couples.
There are many beautiful clothes in the castle, and even ready-made wedding dresses.
After breakfast, the two couples went to the second to fifth floors to find clothes to wear.
The master of ceremonies and the two bridesmaids stayed in the main hall to arrange the wedding scene and discuss the wedding process and details in the evening.
Mother Ai tried on the white wedding dress that Ai Meili couldn't wear back then, and it was just the right size.
Boss Rong put on Duke Dahl's black dress, and his demeanor suddenly became noble.
On the other side, actor Ming chose a white dress, and Earl William chose a black dress that matched it very well.
These two dresses, plus Mr. Rong's dress, were all taken from the wardrobe in the Duke's room.
Therefore, the dresses chosen by Earl William and Mr. Rong are very similar. At first glance, they are the same, but upon closer inspection, there are slight differences.
At noon, the couple had chosen their clothes, and the master of ceremonies and bridesmaids had also discussed the wedding process.
After lunch in the main hall, everyone dispersed and waited for the wedding at 8:00 p.m. together.
Since the wedding decisions of the two couples were hasty, and the wedding was held at night, everyone made adjustments to the rules that the couples could not meet before the wedding—from after lunch to before 8 p.m. If you don't see each other, it's considered abiding by the rules.
After lunch, when everyone took the elevator back to the sixth floor, the elevator door opened, and Li Xiaoyu said to Yang Ye and Gu Liang: "You two are finally going to separate, and you are not allowed to meet before 8 o'clock in the evening. Can you do it?"
Yang Ye looked at her and said, "You won't be envious. Liangliang will marry me at night."
Gu Liang thought of something and asked him, "Why didn't you marry me?"
Yang Ye grabbed Gu Liang's shoulders, and was about to say something earnestly, but Gu Liang said to himself: "If it wasn't for the script, I would have given you a white dress. But it's not worthwhile to go to the small black room for this matter." .never mind."
After Gu Liang said this, he went back to the house.
"Hey cool—"
Yang Ye stretched out his hand to catch the empty space, then adjusted his glasses in embarrassment, and saw Li Xiaoyu who was watching the joke.
Yang Ye said, "Li Xiaoyu—"
Li Xiaoyu ran away before he beat her. "See you tonight!"
After returning to the room, Gu Liang lay on the bed and took a rest in the morning.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, his card vibrated at 1:00 pm, and a plot was sent from it—the actor Ming suddenly remembered that the wedding at night required bouquets of flowers. So he decided to go to the garden to pick some flowers and make a bouquet.
So why on earth is Ming actor on the "bride" side
After complaining, Gu Liang yawned and didn't delay any longer, but quickly got up from the bed, put on the white dress, and went downstairs.
Gu Liang acted so quickly, naturally not because he really wanted to pick flowers, but because he knew it meant that the back garden, which had been blocked by thick fog before, was finally open.
Going to the lobby, passing through the main hall, and walking to the west door, Gu Liang put his hand on the door, paused for a moment, and finally pushed the door open.
Outside the door, the afternoon sun was shining brightly.
And the scene outside the door is completely different from before.
After walking a hundred meters from the side door, Gu Liang looked to the north.
There used to be a path leading to the garden restaurant.
Now the trail is gone, the garden restaurant is gone, and the fruit forest near the restaurant is gone.
Instead, there are large expanses of roses blooming in full bloom.
There are no murals outside the castle.
Besides, if it is just the overlap of two times in one space, then the garden restaurant will not disappear, and the tables and chairs in the restaurant will definitely exist, but there will be a large rose flower out of thin air.
But not now.
All the things in front of him seem to confirm Gu Liang's conjecture later - this is not the folding of time, but the intersection of illusion and reality.
After passing through the rose garden, Gu Liang continued to walk north and came to a lake.
The lake is the same as before.
In the last script, Yang Ye, as a scumbag, was knocked unconscious by the lakeside by Housekeeper Hao.
But the scenery around the lake is completely different now.
Now standing by the lake is a large tombstone.
The sun shone brightly on the lake.
Not far away is the rose garden, with gorgeous colors, and the fragrance can be smelled here, and the nose is fragrant.
But under such a beautiful scene, there are so many tombstones, and there is a bit of gorgeous beauty of death.
Gu Liang scanned the tombstones one by one, and noticed that the owner of the tombstone was called "Chef Jack."
Gu Liang took a closer look, and saw that the column of the chef's biography read: "Super powerful chef, the cooking is super delicious. Because his cooking skills are so good, he was left in the castle by the Duke. Human beings who live in peace with vampires. Unfortunately, once the princess was injured and needed blood-sucking supplies, she impulsively killed the chef by mistake and sucked all his blood. Jack, may you rest in peace."
Therefore, three hundred years ago, although Princess Rose never sucked human blood, she accidentally killed a chef named Jack.
At the very beginning of the script, a chef died, and the murderer was cast, who was Princess Rose played by Su Lan.
Could it be that the murder was actually a projection
Just like the actor and Earl William projected Emily and the Duke.
After making such a judgment, Gu Liang left the cemetery and turned to walk south.
In the previous back garden, if you pass the peach grove to the south, you will come to the vegetable garden.
This time, all the way to the south, a field of sunflowers appeared in front of Gu Liang.
That night, when the system read out the public plot, it said that the celebrity and the housekeeper died in the vegetable garden.
The vegetable garden, correspondingly, is where the sunflowers are located.
Right now, Gu Liang walked around the sunflowers, but he didn't see any corpses.
Of course, he didn't see the pentagram array used to kill the baby either.
Continuing to the south, passing through a large field of sunflowers, Gu Liang walked towards the main gate of the castle.
But before he went far, his cards began to vibrate.
It was the system that was urging him to go pick flowers quickly, don't waste time.
So Gu Liang had to take back the foot that Gu Liang had just raised to test the edge of the violation.
Gu Liang had to turn back.
But before turning back, he narrowed his eyes and glanced in the direction of the main entrance of the castle.
Fortunately, there are not too many trees planted in the back garden now, and there are no fruit forests that block the view. Gu Liang was able to see - Yu Zhanan's sports car was still parked in front of the castle.
Fortunately, the color of the sports car is so bright that Gu Liang can see it from such a distance.
From this, Gu Liang judged—except for the back garden, the area outside the main entrance of the castle may not be affected by the illusion.
In this way, after wandering around the entire back garden, Gu Liang finally returned to the rose garden and picked a few flowers casually.
He didn't know what to do with the bouquet of flowers.
He was going to pick a few roses, tie them together with rubber bands, and call it a day.
When the flowers were picked, it was almost two o'clock.
Gu Liang caught a glimpse of a dark figure in front of him from the corner of his eye.
Those who wear black dresses are nothing more than Mr. Rong or Earl William.
Could it be that Yang Ye came looking for him
But Gu Liang's intuition should not be the case.
Gu Liang looked up and could only see the man's back.
The man was slender, wearing a black evening gown and standing quietly in the rose garden, with just a back view, he looked very luxurious and elegant, as if he should be a nobleman by birth, and everyone should submit to him.
A strange feeling suddenly rose in Gu Liang's heart.
—It seems that in the current plot story, he should have been very familiar with this person.
The man opened his mouth to Gu Liang and asked, "Are you happy now?"
Gu Liang asked back: "Who are you?"
"You should be happy. You said she couldn't be like you back then?"
Gu Liang frowned subconsciously. "Are you Duke Dahl?"
— Could it be that he has been wandering around the castle from the beginning to the end? Has he been hiding in the dark, directing and enjoying the scenes he wants
The man turned around slowly in the rose garden and smiled at Gu Liang.
His fair skin was illuminated by the strong sunlight, and the tip of his nose was almost transparent.
The dark pupils were stained with the color of roses, and the smile on his mouth made the entire rose look dim.
"Mingyue?" Gu Liang frowned.
The man raised a finger and put it near his mouth as a "silence" gesture.
From this, Gu Liang could see that he was wearing an old ring on his ring finger.
"Dead wood can produce flowers, and summer insects can talk about ice."
When Mingyue read this sentence, her tone was a bit strange, as if a foreigner felt full of suffocation when reading Chinese.
"A cold baby can give birth to a soul under the care of one person, so if I keep guarding her, she should be able to come back to life."
"Nothing is impossible in this world. Right?"
"Are you the Duke of Dar? Have you not given up yet?"
Gu Liang asked him, "Did anyone in this castle revive you? You created this illusion? Do you want to revive Ai Meili?"
The time went to 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
There was movement behind Gu Liang.
He looked back, and saw Boss Mei and Sister Mei coming over.
When he turned his head again, the person in front of Gu Liang who was suspected to be the Duke of Dar had disappeared.
Gu Liang glanced at the rose garden in front of him, then raised his head to look at the sunshine, and suddenly realized that today is the last day of his transformation period, from 1:00 to 2:00 this afternoon, he should be in a vampire state.
Judging from the servant's diary, or the princess's memory, when Emily was in a vampire state 300 years ago, she was obviously afraid of light.
And now that he obviously has sharp teeth, why isn't he afraid of light
"Ming actor, who was that man in the black dress just now? Why did he suddenly disappear?" Sister Mei asked him.
Gu Liang turned to face them. "I don't know. I've never met him. I suspect he's the real Duke of Dahl. I asked him if he was Dahl, and he didn't answer."
Gu Liang glanced at the roses in his hand, and said again: "I'm here to pick roses and make my hand bouquet for evening. You are..."
Boss Mei took a step forward and said, "I'm the master of ceremonies, and she's the bridesmaid. Don't we have to arrange the wedding scene this afternoon? There must be flowers at the scene, and we're here to pick flowers too."
"Okay. Then I'll go back first."
Saying goodbye to these two people, Gu Liang took the rose and went back to the house, but he didn't see anyone along the way.
After returning to the room, there were many doubts and speculations in his heart. Gu Liang actually wanted to talk to Yang Ye, but every time he touched the doorknob, the card would sound a reminder of violation warning.
Gu Liang had no choice but to give up.
Gu Liang knew that the system's strict control over everyone's actions might mean that the real murder might have already begun.
If he had gone to the corridor just now, he might have seen the murderer walking outside.
The actor Ming did not see all of this in the script, and Gu Liang, as the player playing the actor Ming, should not have seen all of this, otherwise he would become a "witness" beyond the script's regulations, which is naturally not allowed.
Therefore, Gu Liang was very worried about Yang Ye.
He was afraid that the groom who died this time would become Earl William.
It wasn't until 5 o'clock in the afternoon that there was finally a knock on the door outside the house.
"Gu Liang? It's me."
— That was Yang Ye's voice.
Gu Liang let out a long breath and stepped forward to open the door: "Are you able to move around freely?"
Yang Ye nodded: "I just tried it, and when I opened the door, there was no warning card. This may mean... the plot interpretation is completely over."
Just as Yang Ye finished speaking, sure enough, the system's public address rang.
"At 5 pm on November 11, Mama Ai found two dead bodies near the sunflowers planted in the back garden. The dead bodies were all wearing black evening dresses."
"This is the end of the interpretation of the script of "The Folding Castle". Let's move on to the investigative part."
"After the sun rises again, the power of the demon will disappear completely. Therefore, please hurry up and solve the case."
"Free exploration time is 3 hours."
"The intensive discussion time is 5 hours."
"Have a nice game everyone!"
"Finally, three game tips are attached."
"First, one of the dead is Boss Rong. His player, Meng Qiancheng, used the [Reincarnation Card] before he died, saying, 'The so-called reincarnation is just starting from scratch'. Half an hour later, Meng Qiancheng will die And resurrected, lost all memory, and started to break through the level from the primary script again."
"In order to save resources, the system will no longer create his corpse separately. Therefore, from now on, you only have half an hour to check the corpse."
"Second, this round has newly opened the exploration area - the streets on the west side and south side of the back garden. For details, please refer to the card map."
"Third, after real-time monitoring by the system, it was found that two players had established a substantial romantic relationship."
What is substantive love? I haven't agreed yet.
Gu Liang: "..."
The system continued: "These two players are playing the role of the question mark character and the star actor respectively. Based on this substantial love relationship, the two of them may have behaviors that are not stipulated in the script, lying for each other or covering up for each other. Please let the other players Pay attention to screening, and be careful not to be misled."
"In addition, there is no express prohibition in the game that everyone falls in love, but the game is risky, and love needs to be cautious. 'Husbands and wives are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes'. This is very correct. Over the years, the system has witnessed countless pairs of lovers. In the game, enemies turn against each other. Therefore, the system reminds everyone to be rational during the process, so as not to hurt others or themselves.”
"Okay, everyone, please work hard to solve the case!"
"Have a nice game everyone!"
After listening to the broadcast, Gu Liang turned his head and saw Yang Ye who was smiling at him.
"Let's go, let's go investigate the case." Gu Liang said this, and walked out first.
"Okay, daughter-in-law"
Before Yang Ye called out "Woman", Gu Liang had already stopped, turned around, and covered his mouth with his hands, with a hint of warning in his eyes.
After a while, Gu Liang put down his hand.
Yang Ye naturally held his hand and said without shame: "The system has already said that we have a 'substantial love relationship!'"
"..."
Gu Liang glared at him, "Then don't shout nonsense. At most, he's just a boyfriend."
After saying this, Gu Liang opened the door and went out.
Gu Liang didn't know that Yang Ye, who was standing behind him, had already stood in place, completely stunned.
Gu Liang's casual words poured into Yang Ye's heart like a warm current, and then spread throughout his limbs and bones, even making his soul tremble.
no
What did Gu Liang just say
Gu Liang, he, did he admit it? ?
He promised me? ?
I will be his boyfriend in the future?
He is also my boyfriend! ! !
Yang Ye's feeling now is similar to being hit by a large piece of pie while walking on the main road.
He was even a little dizzy from being smashed.
That is a kind of unreality and trance feeling caused by happiness coming too suddenly.
The footsteps sounded farther and closer, and then Gu Liang asked in surprise: "Why don't you leave? We only have half an hour to check the corpse."
Yang Ye followed him. "Okay, boyfriend, let's go."
Gu Liang: "Can't you call me by my name normally?"
Yang Ye asked back: "Daughter-in-law, baby, darling, sweetheart, cutie, etc., are you not allowed to call?"
Gu Liang: "If you insist on calling me by my name abnormally... you might as well just forget about it."
When it came to the end, Gu Liang's tone was a bit gnashed, as if he had tried his best to convince himself that he could say the word "cool" with a deadpan expression.
Yang Ye: "Okay cool!"
While waiting for the elevator, Gu Liang looked sideways at Yang Ye, stretched out his hand, couldn't hold back, and touched his forehead with the back of his hand. "Are you all right?"
Yang Ye took the opportunity to grab his hand again, looked at him affectionately, and said softly and affectionately: "Boyfriend Liangliang, I'm fine. You care so much about your boyfriend, I'm very touched by your boyfriend! "
Gu Liang: "..."
—Do you want to keep emphasizing the three words "boyfriend"
After a while.
Hearing footsteps behind him, Gu Liang patted Yang Ye's shoulder: "Yang Ye, someone is here. Be normal."
In the end, Gu Liang took the elevator down with Yang Ye, Su Lan, Sister Mei and Boss Mei.
In other words, except for the discovery of Ai's mother, all the suspects were on the fifth floor at this point in time.
The elevator goes down to the first floor, and the five players get out of the elevator, walk through the lobby, and arrive at the main hall.
Mama Ai is in the main hall at the moment.
Compared with the previous one, the main hall is quite different to a certain extent, mainly because there are many more flowers for decoration.
Wedding catwalks have always existed.
It was built by Rong Mingyuan before she got married. At that time, both ends of the table were decorated with flowers.
After a few days, the flowers at that time have all withered.
Now the ends of the catwalk have been re-arranged with flowers.
But unlike last time when hundreds of flowers bloomed, this time the flowers were all roses.
Li Xiaoyu, who played the role of Ai's mother, stood up now, and said to everyone: "The sun is going down soon. I dare not stay there alone, so I came here to wait for you."
Gu Liang and Yang Ye walked towards the west door first. "Let's go and see the corpse."
Li Xiaoyu immediately followed them through the side door to the place where the sunflowers were planted.
Su Lan, Sister Mei and Boss Mei followed behind the three of them.
Along the way, Li Xiaoyu wiped her tears, sobbed a bit, and said: "When I saw the body of old Mengtou, I was very sad, and thought he was really dead. Fortunately, when I heard the broadcast, he just started playing the game from the beginning. gone."
Hearing this, Gu Liang always had a strange feeling in his heart. He asked Yang Ye: "What did he tell you last time? That's when he said that he used [I don't rest card]."
Yang Ye couldn't help being very serious at the moment. "What he meant at the time was the card he used a long time ago."
"That's weird. Could it be that he often casts wrong votes, has bad performance ratings, and has been messing around with low-level scripts, so he played games for a long time before meeting us?"
Gu Liang couldn't help but said, "This game is too strange."
But at this time, Gu Liang didn't have time to think about the rules of the game. In fact, he couldn't think about it. He could only focus on the case in front of him.
Soon, a group of people came to the two corpses.
The sun hadn't fully set yet.
So the two bodies could be seen without the aid of a flashlight.
One of the corpses was Big Brother Rong played by Meng Qiancheng, and the other was the mysterious man in evening dress that Gu Liang had only met in the afternoon, that is, the NPC played by Mingyue.
Both corpses died in the same way—both had a silver cross on their chest.
Several people worked together to check the two bodies.
Except for the chest wound, they had no other external injuries.
After examining the corpse, everyone chose to go to the new map that was released first, so they walked towards the street outside the garden together.
At this time, the sun completely disappeared.
Two men in black appeared next to Sunflower carrying a sedan chair, and by the time they left, they had already taken away Meng Qiancheng's body.
Meng Qiancheng walked in the dark.
There was a lot of fog around, but strangely enough, the wind was also strong.
It seemed that the fog was so thick that the wind couldn't blow it away.
There was a faint cry in the wind, but it was unknown if it was pure wind or someone was really crying.
Soon, a man in a white robe walked in front of Meng Qiancheng. He was very handsome.
Meng Qiancheng looked at him, was stunned for a while, and then patted himself on the head. "I've seen you!"
"I don't mean I've seen you in this script. I've seen you before!"
"It seems a long time ago. But I can't remember. I played a game with you! How did you become an NPC?"
"I remember! You are amazing! I want to share a script with you, and I specially used [I don't rest card]!"
"Although, if I draw the detective and you draw the murderer, then I will die, but the probability is small after all."
"Besides, I'm not afraid of getting detective cards or dead cards. I have a lot of [Reincarnation Cards]."
"Hey, why do I have so many cards like this..."
Mingyue smiled lightly, "It seems that you, like me, will die again and again."
Meng Qiancheng scratched his head, as if he didn't quite understand what he meant.
Then he saw the person in front of him pick up a glass of water and hand it to him.
"How do you know I'm thirsty?"
Meng Qiancheng took the water and gulped it down, "Thank you. What kind of water is this?"
"No... who are you... I... where is this?"
"It's called Wangchuan. Don't remember? It's not the first time I've drunk it."
Mingyue watched as Meng Qiancheng got back into the sedan chair and was taken away by the man in black, she twitched the corner of her mouth, "Sorry, I'm confused. Drink this water, and you'll forget it."
The author has something to say:
"Hello boyfriend!"
"Hello, boyfriend."
The next script may be called "Consonance"
But haven't fully figured it out yet.
