Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 1481 The Hider (Part 2)

Standing in front of the kitchen door, Liu Xing knew that the kitchen door had not been opened for several years, because the paint surface of the door was covered with gray, but what made Liu Xing feel a little curious was that the gaps under the door were all covered with dust. It was blocked by Song He with a rag.

"Although my kitchen hasn't been fired for a long time, and I'm still on the top floor, there are still mice, so I just blocked the door." Song He unlocked the door and said, "I've already Blocked all the openings in the kitchen and the sewer pipes, but there were mice coming out of nowhere."

The lady smiled, shook her head and said, "I have a deep understanding of this. I have a house in my hometown that has been idle for many years. In order to prevent mice from coming out and biting the furniture, I covered the toilet in the house with cement. As a result, I still don't know how many mice ran out of there."

  Song He nodded and said seriously: "Then I'll open the door of the kitchen now, everyone, please be mentally prepared, and if a few mice run out, be steady."

   Song He opened the door lock while speaking, and then slammed the door open.

   As a result, the expected mouse did not appear.

  The kitchen of Song He's house has not been cleaned for a long time because no one has come in for a long time, so the whole kitchen has been covered with a layer of ash, and of course there are a lot of mouse droppings scattered everywhere.

   But what makes Liu Xing a little concerned is that there are no windows and guardrails in Song He's kitchen.

  Because it is on the top floor, it is understandable that Liu Xing didn't install guardrails, but Liu Xing couldn't understand why Song He's house didn't even have windows?

   As a result, the young man beside him asked this question, "Song He, why doesn't your kitchen even have a window? Usually, it only needs to be windy and rainy. Isn't your kitchen a mess?"

Song He sighed, shook his head and said, "You don't know about this. When my parents hadn't moved out, my mother used a pressure cooker to cook soup, but she forgot about it because of something, and the pressure cooker ended up with it. It blew up and smashed the windows together with the frame, and then the new windows installed after that always crumbled after a long time, so my house just took down the windows and hung a small curtain to block the wind. Rain; later I closed the kitchen door when I lived alone, but I don’t know when the small curtain disappeared, maybe it was blown away by the strong wind.”

  Because the kitchen area is not large, only the young man and Song He walked in to check the situation, while Liu Xing and others were guarding the door.

   Just when Liu Xing thought that the kitchen would be undiscovered, the young man suddenly discovered a strange place.

Because Song He's father likes fishing very much, and his skills are quite good, so basically every week he will go to the nearby fishing ground to bring back a few fish, so Song He's family deliberately separated a one-meter-a-meter under the water tank with cement The square ponds put fish, so that the Song He family can often eat fresh fish.

Although due to the location, the dust in the pool must be less than other places, but the young people found that the dust inside looked a little wrong, as if it was deliberately put in, because the distribution of the dust was too even. .

"In a pool like this, the dust must be thicker in the inner part. After all, when the dust enters the pool, it will be blocked by the cement board in front, but the thickness of the dust in this pool is almost the same, as if someone deliberately put It went in...Although we can't rule out that this is the magic work of nature, the possibility of this is too low."

Although he didn't want to, or he didn't dare to accept it, because what the young man said made sense, Song He could only nod his head and say yes, "Yes, the dust in this pool does seem to be a problem, but I think it's also a problem. It may be that there was a strong wind one day, and then the air flow formed a vortex in the pool, so that the dust was evenly distributed... Of course, the possibility of this is not very high."

At this time, the short-sleeved man who had been silent for a while suddenly said, "If someone really sneaks into this kitchen, then it is very likely that he descended into the kitchen from the rope on the roof, so there may be footprints on the windowsill of the kitchen. However, since this person deliberately arranged the dust in the pool, then he should have dealt with his own footprints; but this person's way of doing things is a bit rough, so we should be able to find new clues if we check carefully."

  As the short-sleeved man said, Song He soon found some slight wear and tear on the original window frame. It looked like someone stepped on it to exert force, and the sole of the shoe had rubbed to this position many times.

   "Wang Defa, did someone really hide in this kitchen before in my family?!"

   At this time, Song He was already terrified, because anyone who found out that he had unknowingly entered an outsider would find this very scary, especially Mi still didn't know what this person wanted to do.

"Let's go to the roof to take a look, Song He, you also make a phone call to have a guardrail installed in the kitchen as soon as possible, even if you add some money, you have to try to do it tonight, otherwise I think you will sleep tonight. No more." The lady put forward her suggestion seriously.

Song He nodded quickly and looked at Liu Xing, "Liu Xing, I don't know anyone who is a guardrail, so you call and ask your father if there is a suitable candidate, and if there is one, let him come today. The guardrail is made, remember to use the best and strongest material, even if it costs twice as much, I can accept it.”

   Liu Xing didn't say much. He called his father directly and told Song He's conditions. Of course, Liu Xing did not forget to talk about the situation of Song He's family.

   Therefore, Father Liu, who realized the seriousness of the situation, did not refuse, and soon found an acquaintance to make a guardrail for Song He's house.

   As for Liu Xing and others at this time, they had also arrived on the roof, standing above the kitchen of Song He's house.

   "As expected, here are the traces of the rope rubbing, and it looks like it's been a few years old."

   Liu Xing looked at the guardrail in front of him because of long-term friction, an obvious dent has appeared.

"It seems that this person has not sneaked into Song He's house once or twice." The young man frowned and said, "My personal suggestion is to call the police, but I don't think it's any use for you to call the police, Song He. This kind of long-term and repeated infiltration, plus you have not lost anything yourself, it means that the purpose of this person should not be property, and it is very likely that he also lives in this community, even in this building. In the building, so he can do this kind of thing so unscrupulously, without fear of being discovered, so it is very difficult to catch him after calling the police, and it is even possible to scare the snake, or make him jump over the wall. "

"But it's obvious that this person is doing this for the sake of excitement. Just like what Liu Xing saw last night, this person dares to pretend to be Song He to say hello to Liu Xing, and even run to your side to use it. Your mobile phone replies to the message, which shows that he is very courageous, so we can set a trap to catch him; as long as we make sure he has come to the kitchen, we can come to the top floor and give him the rope Take it, so we can catch the turtle in Wengzhong."

As soon as the young man finished speaking, Song He said with an embarrassed expression: "But I still have a problem, that is, Liu Xing saw that this person turned on the light in the living room, which means that this guy left the kitchen, but You all have seen it, the door of my kitchen is locked from the outside, so how did this person come to the living room and how did he lock the kitchens?"

   Actually, this question is easy to answer, but saying it will make Song He feel even more terrifying.

   Liu Xing knew that Song He should have guessed the answer, but he was unwilling to accept the answer, so he could only escape in this way.

However, the programmer answered directly: "The answer to this question is very simple, that is, this person may have Song He's key to your house, or he may have secretly locked Song He before you locked the kitchen door. took the key to your house and got one."

   Hearing what the programmer said, Liu Xing noticed that Song He was a little unstable.

A person who secretly descends from the roof rope to your kitchen, and a person who has a key and can enter your house at any time, are two completely different concepts, because the latter means that person can really do whatever they want in your house, and You don't know anything about his existence. . . Perhaps on a certain night when you were already asleep, that person stood quietly beside your bed, not knowing what he was thinking.

   Even Liu Xing, who has been born and died many times in the Cthulhu running group game hall, feels cold behind his back when he thinks of this picture.

   is like a sentence that most people will mention when introducing "The Myth of Cthulhu" - the real fear actually comes from the unknown.

   So for Song He, everything about that person is unknown, but he may be like a lamb to be slaughtered in front of that person, because he has secretly "observed" himself for many years.

   This is scary to think about.

But having said that, Liu Xing, who was a bystander at this time, felt a little strange, because this person who had been lurking in Song He's house for several years was probably not the strange person he had seen, which means that this person It is likely to be a smoke bomb, used to confuse the player's sight and waste the player's energy.

And judging from the current situation, there should be no need to speak by himself. Song He will not stay at home tonight, and may even move out of here, because it is no longer a matter of pressing a guardrail to solve the problem. .

Sure enough, as expected by Liu Xing, Song He said decisively after regaining his senses: "This house can't be lived in anymore, Liu Xing, please help me find a new security door first, and then help me with the room. Hang it up with the intermediary and sell it, it doesn't matter if the price is low, as long as it can be sold."

   Liu Xing nodded and sent Song He's request to his father again.

At this time, Liu's father found the master who installed the guardrail for Song He, so Song He went home to the kitchen to meet the master. As for Liu Xing and the other players, they sat down in the living room to discuss the current situation. , But Liu Xing soon noticed that these players have reached a consensus, that is, hope that Song He can stand up and use himself as bait to try to catch that person.

   These players said that doing this would be done once and for all, and let that person be punished, but Liu Xing knew very well what these players were thinking, that is, he didn’t want Song He, a key NPC, to leave the module prematurely.

From what Song He just said, it is not difficult to tell that Song He has moved his mind to leave, and he is the one who will never come back, so this is not good news for young players and other players, because They completely rely on the main storyline that Song He cut into. If Song He really leaves the mod now, then these players will temporarily lose the connection with the mainline storyline and can only find a way to enter the mainline storyline, and this is also easy to miss some important plots.

   So for these players, it would be better for Song He not to leave at this time.

   After Song He and the master negotiated the materials and price of the guardrail, the master went back to work overtime to make the guardrail, while Song He sat down in a trance.

  Then, the young man suggested Song He again to try to lead the king into the urn and make that person pay the due price, and this time the young man also gave detailed arrangements.

Of course, this is a "very detailed arrangement", but it is actually a very simple combination of leading the king into the urn and catching the turtle in the urn, that is, Song He continues to stay at home alone, but locks the door and prepares a self-defense weapon, and then These players hid outside the community first, and rushed back when that person triggered the "alarm" they had set up a long time ago. They went to the rooftop to cut the possible ropes, and then rushed directly into the room to face the crowd. Rise and attack.

But Song He is still a little reluctant, because even if the plan given by the young people is perfect, they will need at least five minutes to rush back to complete the encirclement, and the ghost knows whether that person will be right in these five minutes. unfavorable to oneself.

  So after thinking for a while, Song He politely declined the young man's proposal.

And the young man also knew that there was a lack of time in his plan, so he immediately said seriously: "Song He, don't worry, we are sure to come back within a minute to help you solve that **** guy, because we can give it to the community in advance. The security guard said that we will directly climb the fence and enter the community, or simply pretend to be patrolling security guards and stay nearby; you have to know that although there is a high probability that moving can solve the problem, in case this guy really likes to pursue excitement If so, then it is possible for him to continue looking for you."
