Chapter 452: Route B Prologue

"Question...... Must be on these fogs. ”

Silent Hill.

Fast food restaurant "Happy Burger".

Lu Mengyao sat by the window, fiddling with her mobile phone. Although the signal is zero, some basic functions such as taking photos and notes, timekeeping, etc. can still be used.

[The young king is about to be crowned king.] 】

After the crow-like man dissipated into the mist, the mobile phone in Lu Mengyao's pocket suddenly vibrate. Even she didn't expect to have this thing on her, but she received a text message from an unknown sender, with only this sentence at the beginning and end.

The foggy streets were silent, and sparse faceless monsters walked, except for the monsters that appeared in the fog...... It was something that looked like a woman. The reason why I say "looks like a woman" is because it is difficult for all three of them to imagine that there are human beings in this world who are still alive after such serious injuries.

The woman was dressed in a gorgeous dress, but her face, her exposed skin was wrapped in layers of old bandages, and with every step of the bandage, streams of blood oozed from the bandages, staining her long dress red, and the most unusual thing was that she was covered with weapons.

knives, swords, axes, daggers, saws, pipes...... Her beautifully shaped body was pierced by dozens of weapons at all angles, her arms and lower limbs were replaced by sharp objects, and as she walked on the road, the asphalt scraped against the blades, producing an unpleasant, harsh sound.

The gutsiest Gage leaned up to take a look, only to have a long cut in her arm with the blade of her right hand, and although she seemed to be walking slowly, the weapon seemed to attack anything that came near her. Fortunately, the girl moves quickly. Immediately slipped back, and was cleaning his wounds with the mineral water in the restaurant.

"I've finally grown my right hand back here. I didn't expect to be stabbed right away...... Hell yes. The mechanic mancer bandaged the wound on his arm with strips of cloth torn from his clothes, and tied a knot. The girl tried to flex the fingers of her right hand. It's a little sluggish, but it's very agile. She had been using a prosthetic limb for many years, and suddenly switching back to a human limb made her feel ...... at the same time as it was strange Frail.

"There must be something wrong with the fog in this town." The magician repeats a second time, "I don't know much about the world of Silent Hill, but these fogs always give me bad feelings. It's so obvious and weird...... It's like hinting at something. ”

Silent Hill, the famous psychological thriller game series. Let the player push the mind to the limit in a depressive atmosphere and twisted and bizarre world, the series protagonists are mortals with no special abilities, solving various puzzles in this barren world. Encounter a variety of twisted monsters...... But in reality, this series is a story about "redemption". The tone of the series is bleak and melancholy, and those with shadows in their hearts are summoned by this town, a magical place where all the dark sides of the psychic world are transformed into entities, and the protagonist adventures in a triple world......

However, the world we live in now cannot be reasoned from the setting of the original work. The magician typed a few lines on his phone, deleting them one by one. The one was covered in bandages. Is the crow man wrapped in a black coat the projection of the dark side of our hearts?

Lu Mengyao glanced at Sadako Yamamura silently, a psionic person should be the person whose ability is the most compatible with this world. Plus her gloomy past. And it is said that when she and Su Jing first met, the cunning man appeared in the dramatic image of a crow......

Is that you? Sadako?

"As a reminder, we were chased and slashed by a man covered in swords only a few minutes ago. In this case, there doesn't seem to be any riddle to solve. It's better to find some weapons. Then bulldoze all the suspicious-looking monsters - quickly and easily. The mechanic waved his hand to make sure it was working and rested his pony boots on the table. Stretching hard, the young body crackled and crackled joints.

Sadako Yamamura is busy cleaning up food in the kitchen of the restaurant, and although she doesn't feel hungry now, she doesn't know how long she will stay in this desolate town, and the girls who are used to taking care of people have already begun to prepare enough dry food to eat.

Lu Mengyao's mobile phone vibrated slightly, she received a new text message, and the sender was still unknown.

[Feeling irritable?] Dear little viper? These two sluggish women are too stupid for you to bother to talk to them, right? Only you can see the truth of this world under the surface, and the two of them are just dragging you back. Tsk, being good is really a burden, just like in the old group work, it was always the smartest person who did the whole group's share, and those idle lazy people got the same results as the hard-working people - it's not fair. Of course you're going to think it's unfair. The stupid and lazy weak should look up to the soles of the smart and hardworking...... Isn't that a matter of course? 】

The Wizard quietly deleted the text message, but a new one was immediately transmitted to his phone.

[I have carefully designed an interesting story for you, only you can pass the test of this story, dear little viper. Show your lovely fangs, I love your sinister viciousness, your hypocrisy, and in return, you will be the king of this cold world. Go and find your crown, robes, and scepter. I will personally crown you...... Waiting for you. 】

"Crown, robe, scepter......"

Lu Mengyao tapped the table with her slender fingers, and the combination of these three made her feel very familiar. It sounds like something out of a fairy tale, and then he was the one who designed the puzzle......

Pregnant.

A smile tugged at the magician's lips. That was a few years ago, after she started dating Su Jing.

That winter, during the winter vacation of college, Su Jing was alone, so she took him back to his hometown. On the mountain behind the old house in their hometown, the two walked in the snow in the forest, looked up at the starry sky on winter nights, warmed each other, and recited poems and favorite stories to each other. It was the most free and happiest short time in her life, the first time she let go of a qiē and tasted the feeling of falling in love with someone.

And this fairy tale is Wilde's "The Young King", Su Jing likes a decadent and flashy style, and he likes all of Wilde's fairy tales very much. "The Young King" is not as famous as "The Happy Prince" or "The Giant's Garden", but it is also one of Su Jing's most beloved stories, and in the silent snow, Su Jing tells the story in a gentle voice under the starlight of the North Star:

The prince, who loved all the beauty and luxury, was about to be crowned king, but on the eve of the ceremony, he dreamed that the weavers spun his golden robes with pale and painful hands with gold thread, he dreamed of ships on the sea, slaves forced to dive into the depths of the sea, and died under the change of water pressure in search of the pearls on his scepter, and he dreamed that death killed the workers in the mines with plagues and monsters, and those laborers used their lives to dig up rubies worthy of his crown......

And the prince who woke up from his dream......

The follow-up to the story is interesting, but it shouldn't be the point. Lu Mengyao pressed her mobile phone in her sleeve and replied in a text message:

Where to start? 】

Sadako Yamamura opens the refrigerator in the back kitchen of a fast-food restaurant, which is neatly filled with floured chicken. It all looked fresh, as if it was still working before they arrived, and the oil pool for the fried chicken was still steaming and wouldn't take more than fifteen minutes to close.

Knock knock.

Sadako Yamamura turned her head to see a pitch-black crow standing outside the fence window in the back kitchen, which was carefully tapping its beak on the window pane to attract the attention of the girl in the kitchen.

Sadako hesitated for a moment, and saw that the two people in the restaurant were still resting, so she gently opened the small window, and the crow jumped in at once, combed her oily feathers twice with her sharp beak, and stared sideways at Sadako Yamamura.

“…… How did you get here? The girl held out her hand and let the crow jump on her arm.

The crow shook his head and whispered in a whisper that was inaudible to the people in the dining room, "Because I care about you very much, my little beauty." Of the three girls, you are the one I love the most. This time, I have prepared three stories for the three of you as a test, and the little poisonous snake has the smartest brain, so her test is also the hardest; Kiki is the cutest thing, so I'm going to bully her; But you, my beloved Sadako, I can't bear to bully you. So your story can be easily and leisurely...... Come, come with me, and I'll take you to your place. ”

“…… You are not Su Jing, who are you? Sadako Yamamura squatted down lightly and hid behind kitchen utensils, so that the two outside could not see her.

The crow seemed to chuckle lowly twice, and then said, "Me? I am indeed not Su Jing, but I am Su Jing's evil thoughts, I am his dark side, a grudge that is unfortunately formed. Although I am now the malevolent steward of this world, I am still a certain projection of Su Jing, so I will not lie to you...... Oops, Su Jing is so proud and loves you so much, so as a part of him, I will never lie to you. ”

"But...... You should just be the impression of me, Qiqi and Sister Lu on Su Jing, a certain dark incarnation condensed. Although you do look like Ah Jing, ......"

"Do you think there are only three of you in this world?" The crow's small eyes shone with a black light, "Ah, on the other side of this world, the real Su Jing and another VIP important person are also trapped in this world at the same time - but on that side, there is the dark incarnation of the cute little poisonous snake manipulating. The story she designed was much more vicious than mine...... Well, women are terrible. (To be continued......)
