The Trial Game of Life

"1916, my parents got married in 1916."

The key that the lady stuffed in through the crack of the door matched the keyhole of the piano room, and at this time there were still the last ten minutes before twelve o'clock.Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng didn't dare to delay, and rushed to the second floor, not caring about the young lady's reaction after receiving the letter.

Qi Hui couldn't keep up with their speed, so he had to stay in the living room, waiting for the sound of the piano at twelve o'clock, and then traveled to 1916 with them.

The second floor.

In the empty piano room, there is only one piano bathed in the bleak moonlight alone.There are several obvious fingerprints on its keys, which prove that the lady must have been in.

The piano stool can be opened, and Tang Cuo found another key from the stool.

But other than that, there is really nothing in the piano room, let alone twelve movements.The two walked around every corner of the piano room and slapped the walls, but they didn't find any secret rooms or trigger any plots.

"If the twelve movements were not here, where would they be?" Jin Cheng asked.

"Go and open the door first." Tang Cuo made a decisive decision, and the two returned to the corridor and used the keys in the piano bench to open the doors of the madam and miss.

Just at this time, the young lady's angry cry came from downstairs: "You lied to me!"

The letter was forged by Jin Cheng. The handwriting looked similar from a distance, but the imitation was hasty, and the effect of the old-fashioned was not good.The young lady who was fooled was naturally furious, so Qi Hui's exclamation came to the ears of the two of them.

"She started setting fire! It's a big fire, it's burning!"

Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng looked at each other with the same calmness in their eyes.There are a few minutes left, and the young lady will burn it if she wants to. Anyway, when the time is up, they pat their buttocks and leave.

Continue to open the door, and it is the lady's room that is opened.

This is a boudoir of a lady from a rich family with a very obvious style, which is Western-style, and there are two worn-out dolls in princess dresses on the bed.

Tang Cuo saw the doll, a common element in horror movies, and dismantled it without saying a word.Jin Cheng heard the crisp sound of cloth being torn, and felt a slight toothache.

Tang Cuo ignored him and started the crazy disassembly mode.In just 5 minutes, the lady's boudoir became a garbage recycling bin, and the atmosphere of terror disappeared.

He would also dislike Jin Cheng's efficiency.

"Did you find anything?"

"No."

"."

"Did you dislike me just now?"

Let me reiterate again, it is not acceptable for you to despise me before we start dating.

Tang Cuo didn't want to talk to him. After tearing up the doll, he found a small bamboo basket from the drawer of the dressing table.There are various lace headbands and rags in the bamboo basket, as well as a sewing kit.If you put in the small golden scissors found in the fireplace, it is exactly a set.

This is probably one of the evidences that the lady killed his wife. If the player cannot get an answer from the lady, then this is evidence.

There is also a safe in the lady's room, hidden in her closet, with a six-digit password.

In the last 2 minutes, Tang Cuo moved quickly and his mind turned quickly. He entered the password with his fingers flying: 180206.Because in Yu Wangnian's diary, he recorded like this:

[XNUM X Year X NUM X Month X NUM X Day

The 2-year-old girl can call her daddy.

I have prepared the best gift for her, and I will store it in the private safe of Jincheng Bank, and I will take it out when she is there. 】

Take a gamble, February 2th is the lady's birthday, push forward two years, it will be February 6th, 1918.

"Click." The safe opened.

"It's too late, hurry up." Jin Cheng's reminder also sounded, Tang Cuo didn't care about it, he took the things in the safe, and then went back to the piano room with Jin Cheng.

They also want to see the changes in the piano room at twelve o'clock.

The second I stepped into the piano room, "Dang!" The bell in the living room rang as promised.The two looked at the piano together, and saw Yu Wangyue's ghost standing in front of the piano, but did not sit down to play.

There is no change in the unmanned piano, and naturally there is no sound from the piano.

Tang Cuo couldn't help frowning, at this moment Yu Wangyue just turned his head, he followed Yu Wangyue's line of sight and saw the attic residents coming through the wall.

The two ghosts looked at each other from a distance, and Yu Wangyue suddenly stepped back a little, giving up the position in front of the piano.

This is interesting.

Neither Jin Cheng nor Tang Cuo dared to disturb them, so they leaned against the door with folded arms and watched.At this moment, Qi Hui also ran up because of the fire on the first floor, and appeared at the door panting, but Jin Cheng raised his hand to stop him.

"Shh."

Qi Hui stopped quickly, not daring to let out a breath.

The attic resident finally came to the piano, raised his hand to stroke the piano gently, his eyes were deep and complicated.The fire had already spread, and the flames poked their heads through the gaps in the windows, as if they were going to burn the moonlight, and a heat wave gradually spread in the corridor.

Amidst the crackling sound, the abandoned old house that had been in disrepair for a long time finally made the sound of being overwhelmed. The glass shattered, the beams and columns collapsed, and the destruction was only a matter of an instant.

The flame flickered in the eyes of the attic resident, and he looked at it from a distance, as if thinking of the distant past.After a long time, he finally sat down in front of the piano, raised his hand, and pressed the first note.

"Song of Gods, Lambs and Ravens", a strange and light tune, in the growing fire, carried by the heat wave, spread throughout the house, and then upwards, continuously upwards, until it floated to the bleak moon superior.

At this time, Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng were not in a hurry to leave, letting the heat wave and the fire raging, the two focused on the attic resident who was playing the piano.

He played very ecstatically, with a pained and happy expression on his face.Although the tune is weird, it fits perfectly with his expression and the old house in the fire.

Looking back, the lady, the ghoul, the butler, the maid and the maid all slowly gathered here because of the fire, and Yu Wangnian finally appeared.

The ghosts didn't fight each other anymore, they all seemed to know that everything was coming to an end, and their expressions were either sad or relieved, which were complicated.Yu Wangnian and his wife looked at each other through the ghosts, but they didn't say a word after all.

1926.

At the moment when the music was about to end, Jin Cheng, Tang Cuo, and Qi Hui came here, and started to unravel while walking downstairs to the living room.

Jin Cheng: "In this copy, as part of the plot, the sixth movement has been integrated into the story. It must have its own source. At first, we all thought that this piece was written by Yu Wangyue, but now it seems that it has nothing to do with the attic. Otherwise, why did Yu Mochizuki let him play at the end?"

Tang Cuo walked quickly up the stairs, "That's right, maybe this piece of music was written by the attic resident, and Yu Mochizuki played it every night after his death as a reminder."

There is another very important reason for Tang Cuo to make this judgment - from the known information, Yu Wangyue is indeed a good person.

He is sick, his family is rich, and he can live for ten years relying on foreign medical treatment, but he still chooses to return to China because he is a radio expert.He went abroad to learn advanced technology, and he must return to China to use it where it should be used. This is his ambition.

A person with a big heart is rarely confined to the privacy of the back house, just like Mochizuki, even if he is a ghost, he is still peaceful.Such a person is too out of tune with a piece of music like "Song of Gods, Lambs and Crows".

Of course, these are only speculations at present, and the first thing they need to do is to make a phone call.

There were no players in 1926, so the time was reset. The three quickly found the phone book, turned to the bank number, and broadcasted smoothly.

While waiting for the connection, Qi Hui stared at the microphone nervously, his heart beating thumpingly.When he was traveling through time and space just now, he really wanted to find Zhou Dahai, but he didn't dare to say it.

Jin Cheng made people feel terrible, always staring at him suddenly, making Qi Hui very worried about his own life.

"Hello, this is Jincheng Bank, what can I do for you?" Suddenly, a sweet female voice came from the phone.

It really worked!

Qi Hui looked at Jin Cheng excitedly, Jin Cheng kept smiling and said, "Hello, my surname is Yu. I deposited something in your bank's private safe a few years ago, and now I want to take it out in advance, may I ask?" What procedures do I need to go through?"

"What's the cabinet number, please?"

"062."

"Please wait."

After a while, there was another reply: "Mr. Yu, after verification, the contents of your safe have been taken out a week ago, and it was your butler who went through the formalities."

"He took out a box, didn't he?"

"Sorry, I can't answer you."

Jin Cheng then asked a few more questions, but the other party couldn't answer, so he had to hang up the phone.He looked back at Tang Cuo, Tang Cuo was thoughtful, "If the housekeeper took the item a week ago, then it should still be here. Since the system has arranged this plot and this call that can be connected, There's no reason not to find it."

Qi Hui was puzzled, "But haven't we already searched all over here?"

"No." Tang Cuo said decisively, "We have the keys to Miss's room and piano room again."

Without saying much, the three quickly returned to the second floor.

Still splitting up, Jin Cheng took the key to the piano room to lure the two ghosts away, while Tang Cuo and Qi Hui went to open the lady's door.The lady's room looks similar to that in 1936, and Tang Cuo has a clear goal—open the safe first.

The password of the safe remained unchanged, Tang Cuo took out the contents and placed them on the ground.Then compare the items in the safe I brought back from 1936.

They are a box of jewellery, a picture of calligraphy and painting, and some odd children's toys.The only difference between the two space-time safes is that the 1926 safe has an extra diary.

It seems that Yu Wangnian and Miss, father and daughter, have the same habit of keeping diaries.

The 1936 diary should have been taken away by the lady herself, but the 1926 diary was relatively well preserved because it was kept in a safe.

Opening the diary, the child's crooked handwriting jumped out on the paper.

Tang Cuo looked at it from the beginning. The original date was September 1923, 9, which was very close to Yu Mochiyue's death date, only two and a half months apart.

My daughter is afraid, uncle]

……

In the following content, "mother is crying" and "daughter is afraid" appear alternately. Although there are only a few words on each page, for a child, that may be her whole life.

The new piano teacher should be a resident in the attic. He had an affair with his wife during the teaching process, but why did this matter implicate Yu Wangyue?

Tang Cuo suddenly remembered what the lady said, the lady likes Yu Wangyue.She couldn't love her, so she saw a person who was very similar to Yu Mochiyue, did she empathize?

In the end, the matter was revealed, and because of love she hated, so she simply blamed Yu Wangyue to keep her lover?

This is very similar to Jin Cheng's "substitute theory", but the diary entry on November 11 can be used as evidence for "illegitimate children", because the lady drew the tadpole text on the medicine bottle next to it, carefully identified it, it was Herzmon .

Grandpa also has the same disease, and it is a heart disease, which is a genetic heart disease.

The illegitimate child, the double, Yu Wangyue and the sound of the piano in the middle of the night, from the first victim to the final extermination, all these things are connected together, and Tang Cuo suddenly has a completely different version of the love story of the idiot and the resentment.

What if all this is a well-planned conspiracy?
