Chapter 314: Invasion of Brain Cells (21)
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
After this conversation, an "agreement" has been reached between Feng Bujue and the succubus. At this time, the succubus has changed from a monster to an NPC camp, and no longer has the intention to attack.
However, the system did not give any hints about this, and after receiving the key, whether to let go of the succubus or not still had to be sealed and made his own choice.
"Hmm......" Feng Bujue first looked at the key for a few seconds, and then looked at the description of the item.
[Name: Cursed Key]
[Genre: Drama related]
[Quality: Normal]
[Function: The holder will be haunted by bad luck (the item cannot be discarded, destroyed, or traded)]
[Can I bring out the script: No]
[Note: This key is consumed after opening the corresponding door.] γ
As soon as I saw the effect of this thing, Feng Bui thought of the second message: [When you think you got what you want, you have actually lost more]
"Hey...... I seem to understand why you're stuck in my bed. Feng Bujue muttered.
"I'm just lucky." The succubus replied, "Your room is just such a place, after I came in through the wall, I flew forward a meter and reached the top of the bed." Who would have thought...... Some people used King Solomon's circle as a pattern for bed sheets. β
Judging by her response, she doesn't seem to be aware of the nature of the "cursed key".
Feng Bujue didn't feel surprised, because he fully understood why...... The perspective of the character in the script is different from that of himself, a "traveler from another world".
In the eyes of the succubus, this is just a key, and if no one tells her about it, it will bring bad luck to the owner. Naturally, she didn't know.
From the player's point of view, you can go through the guΓ² game menu and intuitively see the relevant description of this thing.
Of course, the player's perspective can be problematic. Like what. The succubus can hand over the key, but it can't be discarded or handed over without realizing it......
"May I ask you where this key came from?" Feng Bujue asked again.
"It was the boss who asked me to give this to you." The succubus replied.
"Huh?" Feng Bujue was puzzled: "He asked you to bring something to me, so why didn't you explain your intention directly?" After falling into the trap, he tried to trap me one by one. β
"Who said I'm going to kill you?" The succubus patted the edge of the bed. smiled charmingly: "I asked you to come over just now, must I have wanted to kill you?" Can't I do something else? I'll give you the key afterwards. β
Feng Bujue heard the words, and re-experienced it, it seems that this sentence is the answer to the sentence [When you think you get what you want, you have actually lost more]
However, he also knows very well that there will be no ** elements in thriller parks. It is estimated that it is because the key has been obtained at this moment that the succubus will say this line, as if the player had a chance. In fact...... He's going to be over just now. It will definitely be attacked. It is possible to trigger the FLAG and die.
This modality. I don't feel that I have seen a lot of single-player games. Some of the most melancholy games love to play this hand, and before the ending, give you a choice. You chose A. Playing to the end is a pit dad ending. Then you read the file and pick a B. I thought I could see the true ending this time, but it turned out that the real ending was even more cheating.
It's like someone puts a loaf of bread in front of you and gives you the choice to eat it or not. You will eat it, and you will die of poison; If you don't eat it, he will eat the bread and smash his mouth and say, "It's so delicious, but unfortunately you can't eat it anymore." β
Woo -
It just so happened that the water in the kitchen was boiling, and the kettle beeped.
Feng turned around and was about to leave.
"Hey! You haven't ...... yet," the succubus tried to stop him.
"Turn off the fire and come." Feng didn't know what the other party was going to say, so he interrupted directly and walked to the kitchen.
Two minutes later, he turned off the gas stove and returned to his bedroom with a pair of scissors.
In order to be foolproof, Feng Bujue took out the [King Kong Bell] and activated the special effect before approaching the bedside. As a result, Instruction One (observing the details of an NPC) is triggered.
[Name: Succubus]
[NPC Forces: Reasoning Club]
[Grade: ??? γ
[Height: 165 cm]
[Weight: 42 kg]
[Can trigger battle: Yes]
[Side Story: The Key of the Damned]
"Since it's not monster data shown, it shows that the fight can be avoided. Judging from the current situation of my communication with her, as long as I don't take the initiative to attack her next, it should be fine......" Feng Bujue said in his heart.
"What are you doing all the time?" The succubus urged.
Feng didn't feel worried about the extraneous branches, so he didn't make any more unnecessary delays: "Hmm...... It's nothing. As he spoke, he took two steps forward, grabbed a corner of the sheet, and quickly cut it towards the middle area.
The creatures trapped by Solomon's circle cannot destroy the circle by their own strength. No matter how fragile the circle was, even if it was made of fallen leaves or building blocks, it would disperse when the wind blew, and the trapped were helpless. But if a creature that is not affected by the circle, such as a human, enters the circle, the trapped person can use the blood of this creature to contaminate the circle and escape.
After opening the bedroom door, Feng Bujue was not moved by the spring at all, but quickly saw through the other party's trapped state, so he gained the initiative and came to a plot line that could be advanced without fighting.
More than ten seconds later, at the moment when a gap was cut on the outer edge of TheHeptagram, Feng Bujue suddenly felt his shoulders sink, and an invisible pressure suddenly appeared, which was undoubtedly a sign of the succubus's regaining strength.
At the same time, the pair of small bat wings behind the succubus trembled slightly, and then she flew up, "Huh...... I'm out of luck today. She said unpleasantly, turned around, and walked through the wall and out of the room.
"Hey~" Feng Bujue looked down at the key in his hand: "From now on, it's my bad luck." He put the key in his coat pocket and left the bedroom.
When he came to the kitchen again, he put the scissors in the drawer and closed the drawer completely. Then he scanned the surrounding scenes and objects with alert eyes, "How strict is that 'bad luck'......" His eyes quickly fell on the knife holder, "It's the kind of Cheng DΓΉ ...... who may be killed at any time as he spoke, and his gaze moved to the ground again: "It's still that kind of normal walking." As a result, Cheng dΓΉ, who fell flat and broke his two front teeth......"
In fact, he thought too much, if the cursed key really had such an immediate and lethal effect, the succubus would have already discovered the abnormality on the way here, and he would not wait to be in the sealed bedroom. I fell into the trap because of carelessness.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Five minutes later, Feng Bujue came to the living room with instant coffee brewed in boiling water. He put his coffee on the coffee table, then put the couch in place and sat down comfortably.
He took a sip of his coffee and let out a cheerful "ah-" as if he were an addict who had just taken a sip.
"If I'm not mistaken, pages 599 to 602 should be ......" Feng unconsciously put down his coffee cup and cocked Erlang's legs. I opened the book I had put here and said, "Aha! Sure enough, it was "The Return". β
That's right. S.H's tip. refers to the "Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes" on the bookshelf.
Reading is not something that is developed in a day.
As the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, for Feng Bujue. This book is the starting point of a long journey.
When he was a child. It's really different from other kids. Although he also likes to play games and read comics, his talent and enthusiasm for reading are obviously much stronger than those of his peers, and even surpass those of adults.
This "The Complete Collection of Sherlock Holmes" contains all the Sherlock Holmes detective stories written by Conan Doyle, which Feng Bujue bought with his pocket money when he was in elementary school. His family was not wealthy, and his pocket money was pitiful, so he bought a miniature copy. A book is more than 1,400 pages, and the words are printed very small, which looks quite laborious.
But Feng Bujue still read the book countless times, and kept the book very well. He never flipped through a book while eating, nor did he touch the paper with his grease or stained hands, and he was reluctant to fold the corners, but he always remembered the pages he saw.
More than ten years later, the book is still on his shelf, and although the paper looks yellowish, the handwriting inside is still very clear, and not a single crease can be found.
"I didn't expect that I would open this again." Feng Bujue muttered, and his attention quickly fell on the words in front of him.
Pages 599 to 602 are part of the story "The Empty House," which is a story in The Return.
From the perspective of a veteran reader, the story of "The Return" should be regarded as the beginning of the decline of the entire series. The later "Uncanny Valley", "Last Greetings" and "New Detective" no longer have the rigor of their earlier works in terms of logical reasoning. At this time, Sherlock Holmes seemed to be able to truly determine a person's mental activity and judge the cause and effect of a case from "the movement of the face, the change of the eyes, the closing of the lips, the clenching or loosening of the fist......".
This phenomenon also reflects in a certain way that Mr. Conan Doyle has gradually lost his enthusiasm for writing such stories, and only writes to satisfy the wishes of publishers and readers. That's why the Sherlock Holmes stories after 1902 weren't as successful as their predecessors.
Today's Feng Bujue can actually understand Conan Doyle's original state. This is the case with many writers, when they write stories with a high level of creative zeal, no one cares. And when they become famous, even if they fall into a creative trough, some people are willing to spend a lot of money to let them deliver.
"A Study in Scarlet Letters" was written in April 1986, when Conan Doyle submitted it everywhere, but it was not published. It was not until Christmas 1987 that it was published in a Christmas yearbook.
Just five years later, when he himself deliberately refused, the Seaside Magazine offered him a thousand pounds for a salary for 12 short stories.
As a writer who didn't want to write for a long time, but was still "forced to go to Liangshan" for many years, Conan Doyle is indeed not easy.
"Oh...... Was it Sherlock Holmes who recounted his escape at Reichenbach Falls to Watson......" Feng Buyi read the content of page 599, and he basically recalled what was written on the next three pages, but he continued to read.
"'I didn't fall at all,' and 'I had no doubt that my end had come when I noticed Professor Moriarte with a sinister face standing on the narrow road that led to safety.'" In his grey pupils, I saw the relentless intent'. Feng unconsciously retold Holmes's description: "The description of the struggle...... Hehe, it's basically equivalent to no description, and then Lao Mo fell. The scenario was...... 'I saw him fall a long distance, then hit a rock, and then it bounced out and ended up in the water'. β
Feng Bujue picked up the coffee and took another sip. Judging from this paragraph, Moriarty must be dead. Unless his physique is close to Captain America, and after being hit like that, he can still come out of the falls. He paused: "In that case...... Is the owner of the Reasoning Club essentially a ghost? Something flashed in his eyes, "If it's a living person...... Could it be that the one who fell was a stand-in? But what kind of stand-in can fool Holmes's eyes......"
He put down his coffee cup: "Hmm...... Or perhaps, the old Mo of the Reasoning Club is just a projection of Moriarty from a certain period in the original book. Just like the other fairy tale and fiction characters in the test building. β
I'm afraid that the answer to this question will have to be asked by the professor himself. So I didn't feel that I would put it aside for the time being. Keep reading.
He could read every word at a glance, but now he read every word carefully, and remembered what the original English sentence of the passage looked like (he also had an English version of Sherlock Holmes). But those books were divided into series, and each book did not exceed 500 pages.)
"'At the moment when the professor fell into the abyss. I suddenly realized that fate had given me a unique opportunity. ''On the cliff that you asserted was a cliff, there were still a few narrow footholds, and there was a place that resembled a ledge. It's obviously impossible to climb all the way up that high cliff, but it's even more impossible to walk down that narrow wet path without leaving footprints. Seeing this, Feng Bujue couldn't help but complain: "It is worthy of being a model for my generation, I will carry it out to the end if I think of cheating death, and I would rather risk death to climb the cliff." β
Further back, the descriptions of 600 to 601 are mainly Sherlock Holmes' rock climbing experiences. In the process, one of Moriarty's accomplices, who had been ambushed nearby, attacked Holmes twice with large stones, and if this was a fantasy novel, our great detective would probably have been planted, and then he fell off the cliff and did not die, and obtained magic skills, magic weapons, beautiful women, or the old man who carried him......
Unfortunately, in this early twentieth century novel, the protagonist's aura serves only as follows: "As I climbed the edge of the ledge with my hands and hung my body in the air, another stone fell from me with a thud." My feet were empty, and God forbid, I fell on the path below. I broke my head and bled out, but when I got up, I ran away, and walked ten miles in the dark in the mountains. A week later, I arrived in Florence, and no one in the world knew my whereabouts. β
Feng Bujue read this paragraph and said, "Hmm...... This week's content,You can write a fandom for survival in the wilderness......"
Finally, there are 601 to 602, which is the epilogue of this description.
This section is mainly composed of two parts, the first part is about where Holmes went to level up in the years since he disappeared.
"I traveled to Tibet for two years, and I often went to Lhasa to chat with the great lamas. You may have seen a very good report from a Norwegian named Sigson, and I am sure you would never have imagined that this is the news of your dear friend. I then passed through Persia, visited the Holy Land of Mecca, and then went to Kharimum, the capital of Sudan, to pay a brief but interesting visit to the Caliphate (the title of the theocratic leader of the Islamic state), and shared the results of the visit with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Back in Europe, I spent several months studying derivatives of coal tar in a real yΓ n room in Montpellier, in the south of France. I completed the study with satisfaction, and when I heard that there was only one of my enemies left in London, I was ready to return. β
And the second part is about the situation of Moriarty's remnants.
This passage is not very clear, for on page 600 Holmes says that "not only Moriarty alone has sworn to put me to death, but at least three such men have survived." And their revenge on me** will only become more violent with the death of the leader. β
But in Watson's account in "The Last Case", this number becomes two, and these two people are said to be important figures in Moriarty's criminal group, and they have successfully escaped the trial of the crime.
On page 602, there is another person.
These questions were already thought about when Feng Bujue read them back then. Of course, the simplest explanation is that the author just writes casually. It is true that this change in number is not important in the original book and has little to do with the main story.
Moriarty's criminal empire collapsed at the time of the fall of its king.
However, now in the thriller park, in the script of confronting the fictional character of Moriarty, the system has set up a very clear prompt such as 599-602. Brother Jue had to consider this as a reality......
"The 'Swiss teenager' who appeared in the last case escaped, Watson's analysis is very reliable, he should also be Moriarty's henchman, but it is obviously insignificant." Feng Bujue closed the book, raised his head and read: "Suppose the person who attacked Sherlock Holmes on the ledge is one of the 'three', and the other two are characters who have never appeared, only zΓ i in the description. His mind was pounding: "Is the decrease in numbers due to death, arrest, or seclusion...... and he turned his gaze to the key in his hand: "Also, what is the direct relationship between the contents of these four pages and the key and my escape from this room?"
