Real Cthulhu Running Game

   Chapter 361 Is Xiao Mochen a woman?

Although Liu Xing knew that the primary school students who died were all NPCs, they were just a string of data in the Cthulhu run game, but this did not prevent Liu Xing from feeling pity and helplessness about their deaths, but the good thing was that if he If the group can complete that side quest, they can stop their deaths.

Therefore, Liu Xing took a deep breath and said: "Let's not talk about this first, after all, some things have already passed, and it is also a matter of entanglement, not to mention that we have done our best, so don't Let these things affect our mood.”

Ishikawa Ling nodded and said with some doubts: "Yes, let's not talk about these sad topics now, but do you think it's a little strange, we don't seem to see the victim's family at the fire scene, right? And the number of people present seems to be a little small, and most of the people who come are men."

   After hearing what Ishikawa Ling said, Liu Xing immediately began to recall the situation of the fire scene this afternoon, as if it was really the case.

The first is the issue of the family members of the victims of the fire. In Liu Xing's impression, in such a situation, the family members of the victims will definitely cry at the scene. crashed.

What's more, in a small town like Panlong Town, everyone is basically related to each other, and they are acquaintances with each other no matter how bad it is. Moreover, the area of ​​Panlong Town is so large, and the speed of information transmission is extremely fast, so Liu Xing But I don't think that at the scene of the fire just now, there were no family members of the victims among those who participated in the firefighting.

However, the family members of these victims were very calm, and they all threw themselves into the firefighting operation, neither crying nor making trouble, nor going to the mayor of Li Ming to make any unreasonable demands, such as sending People ventured into the fire or something, which made Liu Xing feel a little incredible. After all, Liu Xing didn't think that the families of these victims had such a good psychological quality, because it involved their children and their future.

You must know that for parents and elders, children can be said to be everything to them, and they can do anything for their children. Just like in the two world-famous terrorist attacks that happened in the Maoxiong country, in order to rescue them The head of the bear country of his own children brings his own weapons to attack terrorists.

Although in a strict sense, the behavior of the head of the hairy bear country disrupted the deployment of the police and caused serious adverse consequences, resulting in a large number of casualties, but no one could blame the parents of the hairy bear country too much. , after all, they are all for the safety of their children.

   Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the families of the victims of the black Internet cafe fire were a little too calm.

   The second is the number of people at the fire scene. Although Liu Xing did not pay attention to the count, in retrospect, Liu Xing estimated that the number of people present at the time should be around forty or fifty people, which is obviously not normal.

Because according to what he saw and heard this afternoon, Liu Xing initially estimated that the number of residents in Panlong Town should be around 300 to 500 people, which means that at the scene of the fire just now, only one-tenth of the population lived there. Residents of Panlong Town were present.

   You must know that no matter where it is, most of the human beings have the habit of joining in the fun. Usually two people quarrel and fight, and they can surround a circle of people, not to mention that there is a fire, which may involve their relatives and friends. Major events.

   Therefore, Liu Xing did not say that the entire Panlong Town was present, and at least half of the Panlong Town people had to be present to be normal.

   As for the last point that Ishikawa Ling said, Liu Xing became more and more strange as he thought about it. In the fire scene just now, apart from the proprietress of the black Internet cafe, Liu Xing was really a woman and did not see it. . .

etc.

   Liu Xing frowned and began to carefully recall all his experiences today. It seems that apart from the proprietress of the black Internet cafe, there is only one woman, Hu Li!

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing immediately said, "By the way, don't you think that apart from the proprietress and Hu Li of the black Internet cafe, we didn't see other women today?"

  Ishikawa Ling and Zhang Jingxu both frowned and shook their heads after thinking for a while.

   As for Wan Chongshan and Li Dian, after Zhang Jingxu's translation, he shook his head and said that he did not see other women.

  This is very strange, is the ratio of men and women in Panlong Town so imbalanced, or is it that women in Panlong Town don’t like to go out?

   "Well, I'll ask Hu Cang these questions later, how about that?" Zhang Jingxu said.

   Both Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling naturally agreed. Anyway, the two of them could not communicate with Hu Cang. Among Zhang Jingxu's three, Liu Xing and Ishikawa Ling must believe Zhang Jingxu more.

   However, when Zhang Jingxu was discussing with Li Dian and Wan Chongshan, Liu Xing could see that Li Dian had some opinions, so after Zhang Jingxu and Li Dian discussed it, Zhang Jingxu decided to hand over the leadership to Li Dian.

"Li Dian's progress is very good, and he has become a brother to Hu Cang, especially after we told Hu Cang that he already knew the secret of the black dragon this afternoon, Hu Cang also let go, so it is still It is better for Li Dian to ask Hu Cang for information, and I can also translate their conversations for Meteor students in real time, and if you have any questions, you can ask them at that time." Zhang Jingxu said with a smile.

   Liu Xing nodded, Li Dian was able to get along with Hu Cang smoothly, which is a good thing.

Ishikawa Ling thought for a while and said, "That Zhang Jingxu, please tell Li Dian for him to ask Hu Cang about the specific situation of the drowned elementary school student, and who is the person who set fire to the black Internet cafe this afternoon. Who."

Ishikawa Ling is obviously planning for the side quest that has just been triggered. After all, he and his group know nothing about the drowned elementary school student and the person who set fire to the black Internet cafe today. Going backwards, it would be very embarrassing when the entire group did not know the NPCs that they needed to contact to complete the side quests.

   Just after Zhang Jingxu translated Ishikawa Ling's words to Li Dian, Hu Cang started serving the food.

   As a result, everyone tacitly got up and went to the kitchen to serve meals.

   After a while, everyone sat around a table with Hu Cang and began to eat dinner.

  Li Dian started to talk to Hu Cang after taking two bites of rice.

And Zhang Jingxu naturally started his real-time translation work, "It seems that Li Dian is quite good at chatting. As soon as he came up, he complimented Hu Cang's medical skills, and then began to ask Hu Cang about the arson case in the black Internet cafe that just happened. Hu Cang also directly told what he knew. First of all, the name of the primary school student who was drowned at the beginning was Wang Haiyang, and he lived in Wangjiazhai outside Panlong Town, so he was a general school student and usually lived in Panlong Town Primary School."

"We have already seen that the best entertainment place for elementary school students in this Panlong Town is the black Internet cafe. After all, games have a fatal attraction for children, even if you can't do it yourself, watch Playing with others is also a good way to pass the time, so Wang Haiyang often goes to black Internet cafes to watch others play games, because Wang Haiyang’s family conditions are relatively average, so Wang Haiyang basically has no pocket money, so he can only watch and not play.”

"From Hu Cang's understanding, the proprietress of the black Internet cafe is a small-bodied person, and she has never given any good looks to those elementary school students who only watch other people play games on their own territory and don't spend a penny, so According to Hu Cang's speculation, the proprietress of the black Internet cafe at that time probably said or did something to Wang Haiyang because Wang Haiyang didn't spend any money to play games, which caused Wang Haiyang to commit suicide by jumping into the river."

"As for the person who set fire to the black Internet cafe today, it has been found out that it is Wang Haiyang's father Wang Anquan. He is an ordinary farmer, honest and loyal, and his reputation in Panlong Town has always been very good, but because Wang Haiyang is Wang Anquan's only one It's reasonable for Wang An'an to set fire to a black Internet cafe, and Wang An An also knows that he has made a big mistake, and he must die, so he was on himself before entering the black Internet cafe. After pouring gasoline, he was the first person to die in this fire, and the death toll in this fire has been determined to be thirteen people, including Wang Anquan and the proprietress of a black Internet cafe."

   Sure enough, honest people can't mess with it.

Liu Xing sighed and said: "So it turns out, it seems that this is a tragedy that can be completely avoided. If Wang Haiyang didn't indulge in games, there would not be this fire; , then there would not be this fire; if Wang An An was not so impulsive and chose such an extreme approach to avenge his son, there would not be this fire."

The reason why Liu Xing said this is actually to remind Ishikawa Ling and others to make a basic strategy for the next side quest. At that time, as long as you follow these three main points, and then according to the specific situation after going back in time, you can It's easy to complete this side quest. . . Bar?

   After learning the cause and effect of the fire in the black Internet cafe, Liu Xing felt that the difficulty of this side quest was a little too low. Basically, with a few words, after one or two judgments, the side quest can be completed directly to prevent the occurrence of the black Internet cafe fire.

   And will the Cthulhu run group game arrange such a simple task?

of course not.

   After all, this is an upgrade module in the Shoggoth region, and it is impossible for such a simple quest to exist, even if the rewards of this side quest are relatively general.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that either this side quest or something else was tricky. After all, Hu Cang was just a bystander and heard some rumors, so Hu Cang's words could not be taken seriously; either this side quest was just a pre-task, After completing this side quest, a new side quest will be opened, and this new side quest may be very difficult.

At this time, Zhang Jingxu interrupted Liu Xing's thinking, "Okay, Li Dian has begun to cut to the point, and is asking Ishikawa Ling the questions you just mentioned, but Hu Cang's appearance seems to be not difficult to answer, according to Hu Cang. Cang said, because the next town opened an embroidery workshop a year ago, and the business was very good, so basically all the women in Panlong Town were recruited to work, so there are only more than 300 people in Panlong Town. Except for some old, weak, sick and disabled, and those elementary school students, there are only fifty or sixty young men in the permanent population."

   Liu Xing nodded, Hu Cang's explanation was quite perfect, basically answering those questions of Ishikawa Ling.

   However, Liu Xing can clearly feel that Hu Cang is avoiding the important, because Hu Cang's answer consciously or unintentionally ignores the most important key point, that is the issue of the victim's family.

   Liu Xing frowned and said, "Zhang Jingxu, did Li Dian just ask Hu Cang about the victim's family?"

Zhang Jingxu shook his head gently and said helplessly: "Li Dian asked, but Hu Cang has always been concerned about him and deliberately avoided this question, so Li Dian is not good to be entangled in this aspect any more. So as not to cause Hu Cang's disgust and dissatisfaction, after all, we are only outsiders."

  Because Hu Cang deliberately led the topic, the following conversations between Li Dian and Hu Cang were all nonsense with no nutrition, which also made Liu Xing more convinced that Hu Cang was still hiding something.

  After the meal, Liu Xing and his party went directly to the third floor, sat down in Li Dian and Wan Zhongshan's room, and then Wan Zhongshan activated the secret room time.

   "I'm going, this mod is too weird, so many original mythical creatures are actually stuffed in, this is trying to kill us." Wan Zhongshan complained.

Ishikawa Ling nodded and said with a deep sympathy: "Yes, I suspect that the number of original mythical creatures in this mod should be more than ten, and the most important thing is that these side quests are also very pitiful, according to the current situation. Look, these side quests may involve and interfere with each other, and it is very likely that after a certain side quest is completed, another side quest can no longer be completed."

"There is a possibility, you should have noticed that, the relationship between Hu Cang, Xiao Mochen and Hu Li is not easy, and the three of them should be important NPCs in this mod, so they It is very likely that each of us can only choose to do one or two of the side quests, so I suggest that in the next action, we will take the lead, and I will continue to be in charge of Hu Cang, and Wan Zhongshan will be in charge of Xiao Mo. Chen, and Zhang Jingxu, the three of you, try to communicate with Hu Li." Li Dian said seriously.

   For Li Dian's idea, Liu Xing still agrees very much, "OK, let's do as Li Dian you said, but then again, Wan Zhongshan, you played cards with Xiao Mochen this afternoon, did you gain anything?"

  Wan Chongshan nodded, and said with a strange expression: "There is, but I am not sure, I just suspect that Xiao Mochen may be a woman..."

  PS: Tomorrow is the May Day Labor Day, let me, a working people, take a day off, okay?
