Chapter 297: Surviving the Dawn: Phase 1 (9)
"And one last question, Samantha," Tang Tu said, rubbing his eyebrows, "Joshua and Christopher were drunk that night, did they know the specific circumstances of that night's events later?" β
β... I don't think so, we didn't want to talk about that night again, and we didn't even say anything about the police, just told everyone that we didn't know why Hannah and Beth ran out. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½foβ
"Do you think Joshua and Christopher already knew the truth from the others?"
"No, probably not. I didn't say that, and I don't think Jessica would say it either..."
Because Samantha was about to take a bath, Tang Tu and the others left, they had already gotten what they wanted to know and shared it on the mission channel.
Christopher, Joshua, and Ashley play Saucer in the downstairs living room. I really admire these three NPCs, the atmosphere of the scene is so weird, and they dare to play such an evil game.
There are four NPCs in the villa, Samantha is bathing, and the Tang Tu team and several other players are guarding the door of Samantha's room, this is to protect her nearby. The rest of the players watched Joshua and the three play Saucer Immortals, while also protecting them.
So far, it's not clear what threatens the lives of players and NPCs, but some analysis has been done.
First of all, there is the wanted arsonist, who is the prime suspect by all indications, in the Blackwood Forest, and who seems to have a grudge against the Washington family.
Then, Joshua was also suspicious. In last year's incident, Joshua lost two younger sisters, and their deaths were related to the NPCs present, and perhaps this party was a revenge trip arranged by him.
Then, there may also be mysterious creatures. According to current observations, there is a strange phenomenon caused by the butterfly effect in this mission, just like the Grim Reaper in the classic movie, killing the characters in various unexpected scenes.
At this time, almost at the same time, the mission channel was swiped, and each group of NPCs appeared more or less in a more or less situation.
Matthew and Emily found a severed boar's head, stuck in a stake, and a note underneath it that read "Welcome back". Emily decided not to look for her bag because she was afraid, and she and Ma Xiu were on their way back to the villa.
Mike and Jessica are almost attacked by a beast on the road, because they are moving too fast for the players to see what it is, but it is certain that it is not a ghost who attacked them. Then they encounter the attacked deer, and Mike has a good intention to free the dying deer, but he gets the deer's head off. The scene was bloody.
Joshua and the three of them were playing with the Saucer Fairy in the living room, and they also had an accident, and the ghost who seemed to be Beth appeared, and instructed them to go to the study to find some evidence.
The NPCs' various unreliable behaviors have caused dissatisfaction among many players, especially Mike and Jessica, who are prone to pranks on the road and scare the players who are worried about them.
Player A: "Pranking a friend or someone close to you is very irresponsible because they are deceived out of trust, which means that prank will reduce trust between people, which is very bad behavior. β
Player B: "No, it's just a joke between friends, is it necessary to be so serious?" β
Player C: "Have you ever heard of the story of 'The Wolf is Coming', the prank has the same consequences as 'The Wolf is coming'. β
Player Ding: "When I was a kid, I used to play pranks on my friends, and then my friends got angry and ignored me. β
Player B: "That's your friend being too stingy. β
At this time, the information in the villa was updated again.
After Saucer, Joshua went on a rampage and left alone, and Christopher and Ashley decided to go to the study to have a look, only to find a secret passage in the study.
It's a very clichΓ© setting.,There must be a dark room in the old house.,There's a mechanism button hidden behind a bookcase in the study.,After pressing the button, the bookshelf opens to reveal the dark passage behind.γ
Van Gogh became interested and wanted to see the secret passage. In view of the fact that there will be no progress on Samantha's side for a while, Tang Tu decided to go and have a look together. However, Qing Bing Crack decided to stay, just as the representative of their team stayed behind Samantha.
Tang Tu and Van Gogh came to the study, and at a glance saw the secret passage exposed in the middle of the bookshelf, most of the players followed Christopher and the two NPCs into the secret passage, leaving only two players to guard outside.
Saying hello to the two players who were guarding, Tang Tu and Van Gogh walked into the secret passage, Van Gogh took out two "glow stick" energy cards to activate, and the two people walked forward with a glow stick.
After walking a few steps, I saw everyone stop in front of me, and a group of players were whispering.
Tang Tu walked over and asked, "What's wrong, what did you find?" The player who was questioned glanced at Tang Tu and pouted inside.
Tang Tu stood on tiptoe and looked into the crowd, it turned out that the two NPCs were surrounded by the players, and Christopher was looking at a photo in his hand.
The photo shows two sisters, Hannah and Beth, with a bunch of words written on the back of the photo: "I'm going to kidnap them, cut their smooth white skin, and let them make their blood spurt like pigs." He has been a female horse for 16 years. I've been longing for little Hannah and little Beth for 16 years. β
Perverted, it must have been written by the wanted arsonist, Tang Tu thought to himself.
The other people present also made the same judgment as Tang Tu.
"Is this the evidence that Diexian asked us to find?" Christopher muttered to himself.
"Threatening letters... Why is it being placed here? Kerry, this is no joke, we're going to have to go to Joshua right away. Ashley said.
"Wait, let's see, maybe there's another clue." Christopher said.
"Kerry, do you think this thing can be trusted?" Ashley asked.
"It reminds me of what Samantha and I saw before..."
"What?"
"Behind the lower cable car station, there is a wanted notice that mentions an arsonist... You know, I listened to the answering machine in the house before, and Mrs. Washington seems to have filed a restraining order against this arsonist, but it failed. β
"And then?"
"I suspect this man is on the mountain."
"What the hell is this man trying to do?"
"It's as if this man threatened to burn down the Washington family's house."
Christopher and Ashley searched the ground again, but found no more useful clues, so they planned to return to the study.
Just as everyone was back at the entrance, there was a strange sound in the study... (To be continued.) )
