Nightmare Lord's Virtual Game

This village is not big. Including the lost little Lolita who broke in the day before yesterday, there are only 13 people in total. Compared with the villages in the Scarlet Sky Country, Xiushui Village can be said to be a small village that cannot be any smaller. It is completely incomparable with the villages with thousands of people that Scarlet Sky usually encounters.

However, Scarlet Sky also knows that his country is a populous country, so even in villages, the population is large, but in foreign countries, such villages with a small population are not uncommon.

Even in the country, there are many small villages with a population of dozens in remote areas.

This Xiushui Village is obviously located in a very remote place, and it is normal to have a small population.

However, it is precisely because there are few villagers that Scarlet Sword can remember everyone here more easily... Of course, in order to avoid forgetting names, Scarlet Sword also wrote down all the names and information he knew.

"There are 13 people in the village, plus the female reporter and the photographer, that's 15 people, plus myself, that's 16 people, the location is a very remote village, if there's a storm now, no one will go out... well, it's very suitable for the environment of [Snowstorm Villa Mode] (Island Mode)!"

[Snowstorm Villa Mode] can be said to be a very famous standard routine in detective games. The specific characteristics of this mode are that due to force majeure or human factors, a closed space or a suspected closed space is created, a certain number of characters are trapped, and then cases begin to occur.

Under such a premise, the characters are usually unable to leave this space, unable to communicate with the outside world, and even unable to get rescue from the outside world within a predictable period of time. In this case, the murderer's range is basically fixed, and the incidents often occur in a chain, and the detective and other characters can only find ways to save themselves.

The pioneering work of this mode is Agatha's "And Then There Were None", a group of people came to an isolated island and died one by one. The murderer has arranged that the only means of transportation between the island and the mainland, the ferry, will not arrive, so this group of people can only die one by one on the island while suspecting each other. Therefore, this mode can also be called the island mode.

From the current environment, there is a little bit of this feeling, and the number of people is also.

The number of people is also an important information. If there are too few people, then the reasoning will be too simple. If there are too many people... not to mention that too many people may make the case too complicated, just asking the players to remember is a big problem.

15 people is not too many or too few. From the information obtained in the village, there should be no other people.

"Fortunately, I took out a small notebook to record it... otherwise I might really forget it. ~."

There are many people coming to the cafeteria one after another. It is actually a bit difficult to get to know 15 people in one day. For the Scarlet Sword, in addition to the first female reporter, the strong photographer and the white-haired beauty who were deeply impressed, there are only a few new villagers who have been met in the cafeteria.

A lively and lovely beautiful girl named Chie Chie, a university studentThe first one is Haru Makijima, a high school student with a strange sense of beauty, but the first meeting between the two was not very good.

...

Oops, why are all the impressive ones women?

——No, no, I am not here to pick up girls, but to solve cases. What's the point of just looking at beautiful women? How come I can't be a cool party in this game until now!

As for the impressive men, one is called Muro Takumi, a strong man who must be very painful to hit people, and there is another one... The villagers call him Wolf Grandpa, but he is just a strange old man who can't even speak clearly and can only say "The Wolf God is coming".

"The Wolf God is coming... I don't know if it has anything to do with the main plot of the game..."

Oh my god, why are all the impressive men of this strange type?

For the time being, I don’t know how the plot will develop. Scarlet Sword doesn’t think about other things and decides to find a place to live first. This poor village needs a home, whether it is to rest at night or to avoid the pursuit of murderers...

The cafeteria aunt Oribe Kaori asked Scarlet Sword to find old lady Yamawaki Tae, who is currently the agent of Xiushui Village. However, she didn’t find the old lady, but met Huimo Lihuazi instead.

Hearing that Scarlet Sword didn’t have a place to live, Huimo Lihuazi was a little worried, and Scarlet Sword couldn’t help but be very moved.

——What a good white hair, facing an outsider who just moved in from outside, he is so concerned.

Scarlet Sword thought she was just worried that he had no place to sleep today, but unexpectedly, Huimo Lihuazi said something that surprised Scarlet Sword.

“Because [If the evening mist rises, the feast will come].”

… What the evening mist?

Scarlet Sword was very confused.

"For Fujirahito, fog is a very ominous thing. According to local customs, when fog comes, one must wash the body, stay indoors, and sleep until dawn." Huimo Lihuazi explained.

"｀ ~ Uh... sounds like an interesting custom."

The Scarlet Sword doesn't care about customs, but [When the evening fog rises, the feast is coming] sounds a bit scary. Is it related to the main storyline? The Scarlet Sword doesn't know, but decides to write it down.

Seemingly very concerned about whether the Scarlet Sword has a room to sleep in tonight, Huimo Lihuazi said that she knew the location of an empty room. After she explained to Meeko, she came out of the room with the key and led the Scarlet Sword to the empty room.

Compared to looking for the old woman who shouted that she had violated Huimo before, the Scarlet Sword naturally preferred to follow the beauty - after all, they were all empty houses.

There was a downhill slope on the way there, and Huimo Lihuazi fell twice, which made the Scarlet Sword speechless.

I never knew this mysterious beauty was actually a clumsy one.

——Even cuter!

“I often fall and hurt my head. I’m used to the pain.” At the end of the episode, Li Huazi (good one) seemed to be used to it.

“It’s not good to, you'd better not go to dangerous places when you're dressed like this."

"This is also the duty of the Huimo family."

"? What?"

"Spider is the [maid of the bedroom]." Huimo Lihuazi said.

The Scarlet Sword was even more puzzled.

However, Huimo Lihuazi didn't seem to have any intention of stopping the topic.

"The air of the underworld will flow from the eternal to the human world and erode the human spirit. In order to protect the dreams of the villagers, the night watch has always been the profession of the Huimo family."

The Scarlet Sword didn't understand, but if it's night watch... Could it be that the Huimo Lihuazi family is a job similar to the police patrol?

I remember that when I was in the cafeteria before, the aunt also said that there seemed to be four major families here, and Huimo was one of them.

Sure enough, just as the female reporter said before, there is a unique belief here.
