Chapter 64: Alice's Hell (35) - The Rose Seed of the Great Sorcerer
While all the interpreters stood at the gate of the castle, obeyed the nun's words, and pressed their fingers on the rose thorns for the purpose of completing the ticket check, "sin" had been quietly sucked by the roses and became part of Alice's castle.
Yu Xing's tone was normal, and he raised his hand to casually pull aside the broken hair that was in the way: "That's the case, right?" Mr. Butler. ”
The butler's eyes moved, and he listened to the tourist in front of him continue: "The nun guide is assigned to do such an important thing, and you are only responsible for a part of the meaningless logistics, it is already clear who Alice prefers. As someone who has dealt with Alice twice, I don't think I'm wrong in this regard. ”
Alice's time will be rewarded, he has been taught.
Although I don't know when this tourist has seen Alice before, the butler has obviously been moved, his straight standing posture seems to be a little loose, at first glance it is still solemn, but if you observe the details, you can find that he has relaxed a little in front of Yu Xing: "You are right, in the castle, only I still have the consciousness of resistance." ”
Hearing this expected answer, Yu Xing smiled, his eyes were pitch black, darker than the distance that was not illuminated by the firelight, and his tone was much softer, as if with a hint of bewitchment: "Of course, since Mr. Butler has not expressed dissatisfaction with his status, it means that what you want to resist is not Alice's lack of attention to you, but something else." ”
"If I'm right, you, the guide and the chef, were once a tourist, right? You failed, but because of certain qualities, Alice was left behind after death, and became part of the castle, never to leave. ”
"Mr. Butler hasn't seen the sun in a long, long time."
The butler was silent.
"Because you are already a deceased, you can't leave, you can only pretend to be an obedient servant all the time, watch Alice's castle welcome hordes of sinful visitors, and then watch them die or escape, and you, forever, can only stand by the golden bell in the hall, bow down to these strangers whose lives are in danger." Yu Xing sighed as he spoke, and seemed to feel sympathetic pity and pity, "You don't want to live such a day, Mr. Housekeeper, right?" ”
"Yes." The butler said lightly, "If every visitor is as smart as you, and will mobilize the impulse in people's hearts, perhaps, liberation or destruction, no matter which ending, will be a little closer to me, and it will never be worse than the situation where I can't see the light now." ”
"Haha." Obviously, the matter discussed was very serious, but Yu Xing laughed out loud, attracting a less clear glance from the housekeeper.
He shook the fire lightly, as if he was thinking: "The normal process, we tourists survived for two days, damn to death, to be injured, and who can get out alive is probably a matter of luck and strength." But right...... Now that I know what's hidden, I don't really want to play step by step, don't you think? ”
"What do you want?" The housekeeper said, as if he didn't notice that his thoughts had been taken away by Yu Xing.
Or, the housekeeper who has read countless people has noticed this, but he is willing to be given a little hope by Yu Xing.
Yu Xing's eyes were raised, and there was a slight aggression in his calmness, making it impossible to ignore every word that came out of his mouth: "Alice herself is also dependent on her own existence, right?" Butler, I want to end Alice's hell once and for all, not for this visit, but for good. ”
The butler's backwater-like eyes finally changed, and he looked at the "unashamed" young man, with a sense of hope in his eyes.
"Do you know how to destroy this place?"
Obviously, the butler, who hides his consciousness as an obedient servant, does not know how to destroy the castle, or destroy Alice.
"Pretty much." Yu Xing raised his eyelids, and recalled all the information about Alice's hell so far in his mind, "Roses are the medium for creating ghosts, but the ghosts in the castle are not only the correspondence of our eight deducers, but also one more, and that is Alice herself." ”
"In that case...... Does it mean that Alice, as a ghost, is also conditioned by roses? ”
In the Aliceland version of Alice, Alice does not have the element of roses around her, and at the same time, she does not turn into a ghost to slaughter tourists, on the contrary, she is a rule-maker and an impartial guide.
As she said at the time, Alice is a tourist's best friend.
She also did send back the tourists who had finished playing.
Because her appearance reflects a murder case in reality, and the purpose of her existence at that time was to lead the participants to find the real culprit of the case.
No matter how you look at it, Alice at that time can be called "righteous" compared to Alice now.
What made her fall into a depraved change? Obviously, what is more is what is there.
"Huh...... The roses stained with our blood are in that separate space, right? I'm going down and digging up roses. ”
Yu Xing stretched out his hand to the old gentleman housekeeper who listened carefully: "Butler, cooperate." I've ruined this place to set you free, and you're responsible for making it easier for me. ”
……
The so-called convenience is actually information.
Yu Xing had long been full of curiosity about the fifth floor in the castle, which was out of place with other floors, why the rest of the castle was resplendent and luxurious, with a luxury that conformed to Alice's aesthetics, only the fifth floor was so old, and there were many locks, as if it had been abandoned.
Moreover, the fragments of his books were found in the bedrooms on either side of the corridor on the fifth floor, which apparently had been the residence for visitors for some time before.
What happened again to cause the bedroom to be moved to the third floor?
Even the black hole leading to the Rose Tunnel is on the fifth floor.
Obviously, there is a story on the fifth floor.
His doubts were all solved after the old housekeeper agreed to cooperate.
"The fifth floor was abandoned...... The cook and nuns hadn't arrived yet, and Alice had just finished building the castle. The old butler told Yu Xing a story in an emotionless voice like artificial intelligence, "Alice herself is a powerful ghost, but her ability is not strong, and she can only do some entertainment projects that destroy the bodies of tourists to punish crimes. ”
To put it bluntly, corporal punishment is it.
A jumping machine that pierces a tourist's arm, a head doll that bites a tourist, a rotating coffee cup that almost burns a tourist...... For Yu Xing, it is all vivid.
"I actually followed Alice before the castle was built. At that time, Alice's usual shell was still a two-meter-tall robot doll, and she was the only servant of me, and she relied on me very much after leaving me dead. The old butler didn't have any nostalgia when he talked about those days, and it seemed that his desire to leave was not only after the castle was built.
His lake blue suit was a little wrinkled, and the old butler first subconsciously stretched out his hand to straighten it out, and then realized that his habit of being a "housekeeper servant" had gone deep into his bone marrow, and he couldn't help but put down his hand a little frustratedly: "Then one day, a man who called himself a great wizard came to Paradise and gave Alice a rose seed. The man was covered in a black robe, his face could not be seen clearly, and the voice was a man, not sure if it was a human being. ”
He told Alice that if she wanted to get rid of the false machine shell, she would sell the ghost soul to this seed, and then put it in the dirt to make it sprout and grow under the watering of blood and sin. When this flower is in full bloom, it is when Alice has a beautiful human body. ”
Yu Xing raised her eyebrows when she listened, thinking back to Alice before dinner, at that time, she was no different from others.
Does it mean that the flowers are already in full bloom? It was a perfect match for the rose that the nun guide was holding carefully at the beginning.
But...... This suddenly appeared the name Great Wizard......
His nerves are very sharp, I don't know if it's a coincidence, as soon as he hears the key words such as wizard, flower, and instigation, he thinks of the wizard who escaped in the last escape in the deduction of the nightmare in the cage.
The methods seem to be somewhat similar, but the difference is that the wizard who instigated the Brown family is definitely not as strong as the one who induces Alice.
Will there be any relevance?
"And then?" When listening to the story, Yu Xing not only thinks about himself, but also sits on the cabinet and acts as a compliment from time to time.
"With that flower, Alice's abilities began to grow stronger, and every night after ten o'clock she would lose her mind and attack everything she saw...... Not including me. She built the castle, and at first, in order to arouse the fear of tourists, she forced tourists to kill each other, and lived on the fifth floor with tourists, and the results were really great, and in a short time, her roses were fully bloomed, and she mastered the power to manifest evil. She had changed, fallen to the side of sin, and had completely forgotten that what she had done in the first place was for people to learn to atone for their sins. That is...... at that stage," the butler paused and glanced at Yu Xing, "I don't remember which time, but there was a tourist who was as smart and bold as you and didn't play cards according to common sense." ”
At the mention of the tourist, the housekeeper seemed to sigh: "It was a young man wearing gold wire round glasses, who called himself Shen in front of other tourists." Speaking of which, his appearance is enough to make people stunning, and I still remember it clearly. Anyway, on the first night, he broke me apart and ran to Alice's bedroom and lit a fire. ”
Ignition?
Yu Xing became interested, since entering the castle, he could see the small details left by the burning everywhere, he originally thought that this kind of trace was Alice's own problem, but he didn't expect it...... Are there still tourists so reckless?
"Alice is a charred ghost who has a terrible aversion to fire. As soon as the fire went down, I don't know what method the tourist used, so that the fire spread extremely fast, and the entire floor was burned. The passage under Alice's bed was also discovered. The tourist jumped, and if Alice hadn't lost her mind and could still sense the rose's state, Shen would have almost destroyed it. Well, I didn't think about it before, but when I heard you say it today, I realized that Shen had almost destroyed the entire castle. ”
The butler said, sighing imperceptibly: "That time, the casualties of the tourists were very small, and Alice was greatly damaged, after that, she abandoned the passage of the fifth and fifth floors, changed the third floor into a bedroom for tourists, and built an annex next to the main building of the castle as her own residence, as well as my residence." However, she had already realized that I had deliberately cooperated with the tourist to be pushed away, giving the tourist the opportunity to set fires, and her dependence on me had dropped significantly. ”
"After that, she added a new staff of tour guides, and the ability to cooperate and concretize the evil changed the rules of the tour program that you hear today."
"Aha, my companion and I have already been to the passage on the fifth floor, but unfortunately, due to the number of people, I couldn't go down." Yu Xing thought about Zeng Lai's appearance, and wanted to laugh for a moment.
Although it fell in extreme bad luck, it seems that after shaking to six o'clock, the meaning of planting has become better.
Zeng Lai, now the one closest to the rose.
There is also a tourist called Shen in the housekeeper's mouth, Yu Xingchai, this may also be a deducer.
The reason why it is only possible is because listening to the butler's tone, Alice Castle has welcomed many, many groups of tourists, but if there is such a special deduction game that can be entered repeatedly, it is impossible that there is no rumor circulating among the deduction players at all, let alone a related video.
Therefore, the previous tourists may just be "people" in the setting, and may not necessarily be real.
But Shen's actions don't seem to be something that an ordinary person can do, perhaps, among so many groups of ordinary tourists, there are also one or two deducers to join.
It's funny.
No...... Wait a minute......
The corners of his mouth had not yet curved, and Yu Xing suddenly had a thought.
A small detail was remembered by him, and he immediately turned his head to the butler to confirm: "You just said that even if you lose her mind, Alice can detect the change in the rose?" ”
The butler paused: "Yes." ”
Yu Xing: "......" Zeng Lai is down there!
What if Zeng Lai was accidentally sensed by Alice, what if Alice entered the Rose Tunnel to catch Zeng Lai, he had already seen that Zeng Lai was not the kind of deducer who was particularly good at fighting.
The annoying thing is that he has no way to inform Zeng Lai now and let the other party be careful.
"Butler." His voice was very calm, so calm that the housekeeper thought that at the moment just now, the trace of nervousness when Yu Xing asked the question was just an illusion.
"You say." Now that it has been said anyway, the housekeeper has decided to help to the end and fight for his own relief.
"When Alice lived on the fifth floor, she opened a passage under her bed, which was later abandoned." Yu Xing's dark eyes stared at the white-haired old man who was in high spirits, "So, can I reasonably guess that there is another passage entrance under the bed where Alice is now in the annex building?" ”
The butler nodded in agreement: "Very smart, yes." ”
Yu Xing picked up the hemp rope and tied it perfunctorily to his hand, and stretched out his hand: "Take me there." The passage on the fifth floor was used by my companion, and I had to find a new passage. ”
"Straight ahead?" The butler hesitated, "Actually, if you get a corresponding item for a certain evil, you can temporarily weaken Alice's strength and speed in the face of you. The more items you collect, the ...... chance you'll have of surviving"
"Ah, actually." Yu Xing directly stuffed one end of the rope into the butler's hand, and he had to make a appearance.
"Actually, I'm pretty strong."
The housekeeper took the rope and didn't quite understand what level Yu Xing was talking about.
Yu Xing then added: "Even if I don't have a prop, Alice can't kill me." ”
Butler: "......"
"So, I'm not going to look for any props. Please take me to Alice's bedroom, if it's too late, my companion might be in some trouble. ”
