At this time, someone inevitably thought of another question, "The puppet maker makes three puppets every day, so the three puppets made tomorrow will be chosen from among us?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent again. A man wearing a long moon-white coat that seemed to have some kind of religious pattern said gently to No. 2: "I want to go back to my room to rest now. Can you lead the way?"
No. 2 called No. 4 and suggested that if anyone else wanted to go back and rest, they could come with them.
Most people still wanted to stay and look for clues. After waiting for a while, only a sweet-looking young girl came out and said to everyone with a smile: "I think the dungeon may actually start tomorrow. It depends on which of us has the puppet come out first."
I hope... I hope the first one to be made is my doll."
After she finished speaking, she and the man in long clothes followed No. 4.
The rest of the people continued to look in the showroom. Unexpectedly, someone actually saw something else in the doll.
A male player named Zuoyu recognized a doll, "This person is very famous in the wormhole where I am. He often causes trouble wherever he goes. He once destroyed a small country every month for five consecutive months."
record. And he is also an A-level player."
He then looked at the time plate standing next to the doll, "No wonder I haven't heard from him for a long time. It turns out he is dead..."
The actual content revealed in the copy introduction is actually very little. Regarding the puppet maker, everyone only knows his profession and production habits. The rules listed are basically for players, and they are still very ambiguous rules, such as "Disobedience will be punished."
"Punishment", what does "disobedient" mean, and what form does "punishment" take? Players have to explore these, so in the early stage, some players must have suffered from trial and error.
A prudent player does not make mistakes on his own initiative, but of course pushes others to make mistakes.
For the dolls that can appear in the display cabinet, everyone assumes that the person they correspond to is dead.
The last time Xu Huo saw a collecting scene like a doll display cabinet was in the Bauhinia Restaurant. The badges collected in the raincoat cleaner's room, the dolls and badges all represent people in different districts. The difference is the people.
The even dungeon is a ticket dungeon, and players will come out one after another, while the Bauhinia Restaurant is a moving random dungeon that will move around different wormhole points in search of prey.
Players cannot take away the dolls in the display cabinet, and looking at them will only increase the psychological burden. Therefore, some players proposed to visit other parts of the castle, such as the tower, guest rooms, study rooms, entertainment rooms, etc.
No. 1 and No. 2 responded to every request and took the players to visit all the places they wanted to see.
However, except for the cartoon pictures or some dolls that can be seen everywhere, there are no other special clues. The servants have cleaned all parts of the castle very clean, and it is impossible to find clues that may be left by the players in the previous instance.
Soon, the players returned to their rooms.
There are more than twenty players, but they haven't even taken up all the rooms on one floor.
"Are there any late night snacks?" Gao Ponytail asked No. 1.
"If you need a midnight snack, you can ring the call bell in the room." No. 1 replied.
Zuo Yu also asked: "Can we come out at night?"
"Except for the owner's private space and the rooms that are already occupied by guests, guests can come and go at will in other places without time restrictions." No. 1 simply said it more clearly.
After understanding this, the players went back to their rooms.
The room on the side was chosen by the player in front, Xu Huo stayed in the middle, and the painting girl chose the room diagonally opposite him. When she entered the door, she mouthed to him, "Go out to play at night."
Xu Huo had no intention of going out at night, so he locked the door and prepared to sleep.
However, the painting girl was not the only one who wanted to go out at night. Before twelve o'clock, three players had already left the room, a middle-aged man with a high ponytail, and the player who did not occupy a seat at dinner.
They left first, followed by two more people.
The last one to go out was the painting girl. Compared to the others who were low-key, she couldn't understand the atmosphere at all. She probably played games in the room for a while, stretched out and came out. She didn't knock on Xu Huo's door, but walked along the door by herself.
He walked along the corridor to the big corridor in front.
The floor where the guests lived was quiet for a while. Not long after, the tall ponytail who was the first to go out came back. She came back so fast that she almost hid in the room the next second she appeared at the door. The middle-aged man who came after her came back.
He was not so lucky. He had deep scratches on his shoulders, and the protective suit he wore was torn in many places, as if he had been attacked by a ferocious beast.
The two escaped back one after another, which alerted the players who were in the room but did not rest, but there was no movement afterward.
After about a few more minutes, when the players all relaxed, there was a loud "bang" in the distance, followed by another cat meow. After a few seconds of silence, footsteps were heard in the corridor.
There was a sound, and then there was the sound of the door opening and closing.
Most of the players have placed instruments and props outside the door to monitor the situation. They can see high ponytails and middle-aged people, and of course they can also see the painted girl with blood on her hands slowly walking back from outside.
As for the player who didn't sit down in the chair, he didn't come back.
After dawn the next day, the first phosphor to go to the restaurant to eat found the body placed on the dining table. It was the player who had not returned to the room. Like the middle-aged man, his body was also covered with scratches from wild beasts. It was fatal.
The injury was in the neck.
"What's going on?" The sweet-looking young girl looked at the middle-aged man strangely, "Is there a wild beast in the castle?"
The middle-aged man didn't answer. Like his high ponytail, both of them looked wrong, but they invariably turned their attention to the painting girl.
Other players want to know what hurt them, and they suspect that the thing was released by the painting girl. The evidence is the blood on her body, because the 25th player did not die in the restaurant at all.
"It's not a beast," the painter raised the communication device, "it's a cat."
She took the player to the studio and pointed to the painting she opened yesterday. The cat in the painting was still squatting there, but there were two more cracks on the painting paper that should have been intact, one on the cat's front paw and one on the cat's front paw.
on the cat's ears.
"Are you talking about this cat?" Another curly-haired woman in her forties glanced at the painting in surprise, then examined the painting's expression, "Are you kidding?"
The painting girl shook her head and specifically pointed out that the cat's injury was caused by her. If they didn't believe it, they could ask the tall ponytail and the middle-aged man.
The high ponytail and the middle-aged man did not deny it. The former said: "I did see a black cat last night. It was very big. I think it must be some kind of prop."
