"Which one?" Liu Lan walked over, looked in the direction Jiang Qi pointed, and accurately targeted "Mask Club".

"This is the exclusive I just mentioned." Liu Lan took the book off the shelf and placed it in front of Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi picked up the box, opened it, and counted it. There were six character books, a host manual and two stacks of clue cards.

Jiang Qi flipped through the top two pages of the character book. The paper was of good quality and felt good, with a unique ink smell unique to new books. But the cover was a bit ugly. There was a silhouette of a man on the almost pure black cover, with the silhouette next to

Nine large characters in Song font - a taciturn black-haired man.

Jiang Qi then flipped through the pages. The covers of each book were similar, with vague silhouettes on them, front and side. The host manual showed silhouettes of six people together, each wearing a mask, like a group photo.

.

"This is an emotional book." Liu Lan said.

"Emotional book?" Jiang Qi picked up the box and read it again. The dark cover didn't look like a love book. "Why did my sister buy an emotional book? She complained to me about the emotional book last night.

It’s just a licking dog meeting, saying that I will kill you if I don’t buy an emotional book.”

As a result, an exclusive emotional book was now placed in front of him.

Oh, dear sister.

"Sister Bing said this book cost no money, and said it was a promotional trial. I don't know exactly what happened." Liu Lan pointed to the release column on the box and said, "It should be an exclusive release from a new release studio.

Ben, I couldn’t find this studio even though I searched online.”

"But the quality of the book is not bad. Jiang Qi, if you are free now, you can take a look at it first. Then I will need your help with the interpretation."

"Thanks to you, the interpretation of this book must include a male. It would be boring if the interpretation was removed."

Jiang Qi looked along where Liu Lan pointed. The name of the publisher and the author were crowded in the corner, the words were small, as if they were afraid of being seen.

Produced by Card Game Studio.

By Mr.

The name doesn't look like a serious studio.

Jiang Qi has no interest in reading the book. The system has not prompted him to activate the store. According to his many years of experience, the way to activate the store is to walk around the store.

I haven’t gone to the second floor yet.

"Are there all open-book rooms upstairs?" Jiang Qi asked.

Liu Lan nodded: "Yes, there are five rooms and the toilet is upstairs. I'll take you up."

"No need." Jiang Qi stopped Liu Lan, "I can just go and see for myself."

After saying that, Jiang Qi went upstairs.

After Jiang Qi went upstairs, he found that the area on the second floor was much larger than the first floor. Visual inspection showed that the upper and lower floors together may be nearly 400 square meters. There are seven rooms on the second floor, one Japanese-style room and one European-style room.

room, two modern rooms, one antique room, one utility room and one changing room.

After Jiang Qi checked all the toilets in the corner, the script killing shop in the system panel changed to "Opening".

There is no other new stuff released.

When Jiang Qi returned to the first floor, Liu Lan was sitting at the front desk chatting with a friend. It sounded like they were talking about dragon and lion dance exams, which made Jiang Qi look confused.

Liu Lan was talking enthusiastically, so Jiang Qi didn't want to disturb her, so he simply took the box and sat on the sofa to read.

Jiang Qi picked up the first copy and looked at the silhouette on the cover carefully.

Silent dark-haired man.

Jiang Qi turned to the first page.

‘Your name is John, and you are from country Y.

You have lived in a deformed family since you were a child, with a crazy mother, an eccentric father, and brothers and sisters who are much older than you. This kind of family has shaped your taciturn character like you are now.

Almost every morning when you were a child, what woke you up was not the alarm clock next to your bed, but your mother's piercing screams and bursting tears.'

In a daze, Jiang Qi seemed to hear a sharp female voice.

“Fuck off! You son of bitch get out of my house, I don’t wanna fucking see you again!”

The high-pitched roar, the rude slamming of the door, and the low cry made Jiang Qi suddenly look up in shock and found that there was no one around him. The store door was closed as before, and Liu Lan was staring at his phone without speaking.

"Lanlan, did you hear anything?" Jiang Qi asked loudly.

"Voice?" Liu Lan was a little confused, "No, did I just make a voice that disturbed you? I'm sorry."

No sound?

Jiang Qi lowered his head and glanced at Ben again. Could it be that he was too absorbed in reading Ben?

Not really.

Jiang Qi scratched his head and then looked down.

The content of the entire book is very simple. In a few thousand words, it tells the first half of the life of John, an unlucky man.

My father, John, is not very normal either. He graduated from a prestigious school but doesn’t work. In order to live in a cleaning house in a wealthy neighborhood, he had to accept a job as a street sweeper arranged by the government. The place where he lives is as messy as a garbage dump, infested with cockroaches and bugs.

I don’t care about the violence. Apart from working, I just stay at home and read books every day.

Abnormal parents gave birth to two outstanding children. John and his eldest sister are both positive examples of hard work and self-improvement. John's eldest sister Sunny is a policewoman. John relied on his cleverness under the conditions of completely free-range and barbaric growth.

I was admitted to a prestigious school to study biology.

Soon he had a fair and beautiful girlfriend, Mina. His relationship went smoothly and he was about to get engaged, and he reached the pinnacle of his life.

Then John's life began to go downhill.

Then he was unlucky again.

A fire broke out in the factory, a sudden food quality problem with the new drink developed by the company led to the poisoning of many children, and the story of his previous imprisonment was revealed and made public. Under the multiple blows, John collapsed.

He started drinking and soon became a drug addict. In this situation, Mina actually persisted in leaving him. John, who knew that he had no future, felt that he was not worthy of Mina and began to speak harshly to Mina.

Everything is going in the right direction, except that Mina can't be found.

Mina just disappeared from the world, and John searched for her to no avail. Just when he was desperate, he suddenly received a mysterious invitation letter, along with a mask.

A club called Mask Club invited him to a mask dinner and said that the club would fulfill the guest's wish and the guest would only need to pay a small price for it.

John chose to go on a date in order to find Mina, and found that there were six people attending the dinner besides himself. There was a storytelling session before the dinner. The owner of the club liked to hear the guests tell their own stories. The more exciting the story, the greater the chance of his wish coming true.

After watching the first scene, Jiang Qi looked up blankly.

What kind of outrageous and bloody plot is this?

The last section of the first act is the mission.

Your mission:

1. Finding Mina is your first priority. If this club can really fulfill your wish, you have to please the owner of the club no matter what. Since the owner likes to listen to stories, you might as well tell them to him generously, the better.

The better, the better. Don't make it too long. No one likes to listen to long nonsense.

2. Ask about the origin of the club. It is impossible for such a mysterious club to be unknown.

3. Conceal the fact that you have been in prison. No one will have a favorable impression of the criminal.
