He hugged Jiang Chu tightly, with a fierce look in his eyes.
It seemed that as long as the ax man dared to step in, he would kill him.
Jiang Chu went to touch the hand on his face, but he didn't feel anything, as if he just touched a cloud of air.
The legs protruding from the mirror froze in the air for a long time, and finally seemed to be unable to hold back, and slowly retracted.
After that, heavy footsteps came from the corridor, gradually walking away.
"What about people..."
There was a hoarse voice in his throat, and he seemed to only be able to say these words, licking the blood on the ax like a pervert.
There are so many people in this house, why are they all hiding now?
And why can't he find it?
When Jiang Chu didn't rush out, the youngest brother didn't leave the room either. He watched the ax man leave with wide eyes, his eyes were full of fear, and he hugged a puppet that got into his arms tightly.
The puppet in his arms was the one with the broken finger. It kept a ferocious expression, but gently hugged the child.
Jiang Chu moved, feeling that the confinement on his body was loosened a little, and then he said, "Who are you?"
The people behind did not speak.Jiang Chu waited for a while before remembering to look at the fragments of the mirror on the ground.
It turned out that the people behind him disappeared at some point.
Before the cross was taken down, he couldn't appear for a long time. It was already the limit to use Jiang Chu to hug him instantly when he lowered his head like today.
As he thought about it, he hated that woman even more.
"Don't be fooled by them." He lowered his head and whispered in Jiang Chu's ear, "Those are just a pair of shameless and cowardly thieves."
However, Jiang Chu couldn't hear him, and only felt that his ears were a little cold.
He didn't know what was going on, it was the third time, the NPC in the game liked him for the third time.
And the NPC of these three games seems to be the same person.
Why?Is it because he is bound to the love of the evil god, so he is bound to him along with the NPC?
He felt that his fingertips were a little cold, so he covered them with the other hand.
Has this ever happened to Noah?Only he owns this binding item, or does everyone else have it?Are NPCs in different games really interchangeable?
He was a little panicked, and pressed his lips tightly.Accepting someone's kindness is a painful thing, especially if you don't know what he wants from you.
The first and second times can be said to be a coincidence, but the probability of the third coincidence is too low.If the NPC in the game has an independent personality, the most dangerous is the player.
After the player enters the game, the nerve is connected to the port, which is equivalent to transplanting the brain into the game. If you find a way to intercept the exit program of the game terminal, in theory, you can keep the player in the game space forever.
In the outside world, the player will become a vegetable.
"Brother." The child's worried voice came, "What's wrong with you? You seem to be very uncomfortable?"
Jiang Chu came back to his senses, and shook his head very slowly: "It's nothing."
In theory, his idea can be realized, but it is too early to draw conclusions.
After all, "Noah", as a horror escape game, has a complete security mechanism.
"Do you know your friend's name?" Jiang Chu asked his younger brother.
The child shook his head ignorantly: "He didn't want to tell me his name, he said that the name of the devil is taboo."
When Jiang Chu heard the word devil, his heart sank, and he asked, "What else did he say?"
The child glanced behind him, where a figure mouth-shaped to him.
He also imitated his friend, ignorant, and made the same mouth shape verbatim: "The name of the devil is life, so I never tell anyone."
The importance of names to demons is too great. Just by using names, one can sign a contract with them and obtain evil abilities.
For example, Jiang Chu, or with that man and woman, they signed a contract, and obtained the ability to make people into puppets from the devil.
On the other hand, the devil's own name is more important, they can't tell the human beings, otherwise they will give up their lives.
Jiang Chu figured it out after a little thought, and felt relieved.
Since it's so important, it's a good thing he doesn't know.
If the demon is even willing to tell him its name, it means that it may be plotting something beyond his imagination.
At the same moment, a candle in the attic suddenly went out, and the puppet sitting on the high armchair made the sound of joint twisting, and slightly opened its eyes.
A sparkle of red emerged from his eyes.
The paper placed on the box in front of him automatically revealed Jiang Chu's name.
Beside it, the name of another ink trace gradually became clear.
'Kloster'
The bell suddenly rang at twelve o'clock at noon, drawing back everyone's attention.
It also made the ax man's eyes shrink.
He murmured, "It's time for lunch..."
"It's time for lunch..."
His voice was not deliberately amplified, but strangely, every player hiding in the house could hear it.
Jiang Yiyi and Ren Ya covered their mouths, thinking that he was going to eat people; Zheng Zhize, who was hiding under the table, looked ugly, because the dining table was on his head; only Jiang Chu felt that he really wanted to eat when he heard it.
A thing that looks like a crazy murderer is thinking about eating now?
As if for a signal, the sound of heavy footsteps and the dragging of the ax on the ground died away.
The players didn't dare to move and continued to hang on.
Jiang Chu felt like he was about to fall asleep when he heard his mother's knock on the door.
"Children, are you awake?" She said softly, "The house is safe now, let's go out and eat."
The girl's room was also rang, and the mother said the same thing.
Jiang Yiyi cursed in her heart that it was already noon and asked if she was awake?You should ask if you are dead or not?
And this mother has a big heart to ask them to go out for dinner as if nothing had happened when a murderer comes in at home
Yes, they already decided that the ax man was a murderer.When the ax man appeared in their room, as soon as they woke up, they saw a man hanging outside the window, with only one hand on the window sill.
The man with the ax stood in front of the window, swung the ax and chopped off one of his fingers.
The two girls were frightened crazy. They didn't know how the ax man appeared in the room, but it seemed that he was so focused on the person hanging on the window sill that he didn't notice the two of them, so they hid in the cabinet.
Relying on Cindy's protection, they seem to have escaped smoothly.
Ren Ya's heart was terribly cold: "This is a reenactment of the murder scene! I even heard the sound of water just now. The person who fell from the window ended up in the pool, so we were able to pick up a finger."
But now the pool has been filled long ago, so there is no possibility of water.
"Has he been hiding in our house..." Ren Ya showed an indescribable expression.
Jiang Yiyi hugged Cindy tightly, and whimpered, "Poor Cindy must have been killed by him."
Mother's knock on the door meant the alarm was off, and they crawled out of the closet and opened the door carefully.
Just in time to see Zheng Zhize coming upstairs carefully.
He said in surprise, "Xiaoya, are you okay!"
Ren Ya quickly opened the door to let him in, and shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
Jiang Yiyi immediately looked behind him and asked anxiously, "Isn't my brother with you?"
Zheng Zhize shook his head: "I ran away before I went downstairs."
When the few people met, the eldest sister crawled out pale from under the bed. She looked at the broken bed, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, opened the door and ran away without saying a word to the few people.
The two girls also seemed to be afraid of her, so they didn't stop her.
Just at this time, Jiang Chu came out from their original room, he opened the door, and glass shards scattered from the door, making a messy sound.
There were bloodstains on some glass shards.
Jiang Yi shouted: "Brother?"
Jiang Chu responded.
Zheng Zhize looked rejoicing: "You don't know, I saw those puppets crawling towards him with their limbs swinging, and thought he must be dead... It was really terrifying."
Ren Ya quietly pulled him back.In fact, everyone was terrified this morning.
The four of them took advantage of this time to gather together, and Zheng Zhize also told a few people that he was hiding under the dining table.
"Suddenly someone knocked on my foot under the floor, and I wondered why there would be someone under the floor." Zheng Zhize was terrified, "Then the voice led me under the dining table, and I hid there. The ax man drilled his head in. Didn't see me either."
The two girls looked at each other: "We were saved by Cindy."
Jiang Chu said vaguely, "I was hidden by a group of puppets."
The things that frightened them before, and even created panic, seemed to be protecting them.
They seemed to have been foreseen, and immediately led the player to a place that the ax man could not find.
For a while, they didn't know what it meant.
Jiang Chu said suddenly: "Also, the mirror in our room is broken."
He described the scene where the ax man almost fell from the mirror to Zheng Zhize.
"The ax missed us in the end, but another person in the mirror was hit and died directly in front of the mirror," he said.
Ren Ya's face was solemn: "It's the same as what we encountered, it must be the murder again."
The corner of Zheng Zhize's mouth twitched: "I have a bold idea...do you remember the puppet in the living room with half of its head gone?"
He was taken aback at the time and said it was ugly.
Several people thought of going together.
Could it be that the reason these puppets are so ugly is that they were... tortured and killed before their lives?
According to Jiang Chu, as long as you sign a contract with the doll in the attic, you can get the ability to make people into dolls.
In this way, even if many people are tortured and killed, there is no need to worry about the disposal of the corpses, and the dolls can even be placed in a fair place.
After all, corpses can sometimes talk, and the last thing a murderer wants is to be caught telling off.
The corner of Jiang Chu's mouth was pressed down, and his face was worried: "The people under the floor...may have also been tortured and killed. We may see more murders in a few days, and we will meet the man with the ax every day."
When the person in the murder reappearance is killed, it is self-evident who the ax man's next target is.
"But." Jiang Yi racked his brains one by one, as if trying to come up with an answer, "What role did our family play in this murder case? Who was killed?"
Ren Ya said: "Maybe we were just unlucky, and just moved in here after the Yun family moved out... Wait."
She and Jiang looked at each other in horror.
It was really the Yun family who were killed!
"They didn't move to the countryside at all." Ren Ya sighed, "It's under our feet."
Zheng Zhize felt that his entire back was cold, and touched the goose bumps on his arms.
"Brother, you just said that you saw a man and a woman sign a contract with the devil in the branch line." Jiang Yiyi turned to Jiang Chu, "What do they look like? Are they the Yun family couple, or our parents?"
Jiang Chu said with a headache: "That's the problem, they are nobody."
The current parents are their parents, there is no doubt about it, according to the character information sent by their game background, these two people are the parents who raised them since childhood.
Now half of the story line is still unfinished, and they don't know what changes will be made in the follow-up plot. They can't jump to conclusions, so they can only put this issue aside for the time being.
The mother urged them downstairs again, so they had to go out one after another.
Jiang Yiyi deliberately took a step behind, and whispered to Jiang Chu: "Then you are all right, you also wrote your name on the contract..."
"It's okay, it's not my real name." Jiang Chu said, "It's just the name of the game."
Instead, it was Jiang Yiyi's turn to be taken aback.
Seeing that she was silent, Jiang Chu asked her, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yiyi blinked and said slowly, "Brother, what are you thinking? Of course I didn't mean that."
"It's just a game, what does it matter if you sign your real name?" She was a little puzzled, "I just want to ask if you will be controlled, and will you really be cruel to Zheng Zhize?"
Jiang Chu rubbed his temples with a headache.
It was because he thought too much, while thinking about the game, he also wanted to decrypt it.
What Jiang Yiyi said was right, it was just a game.
A few people lay on the table hungry and hungry, they didn't bother to look at the face of the NPC, they lowered their heads and ate their meals in silence.
This time the meal was extremely heavy, almost everyone's faces were stiff, and they couldn't eat.
The mother looked at them worriedly: "What's the matter, children? Is the food not to your taste?"
Perhaps Zheng Zhize thought of the split head, and vomited it out.
It's so disgusting.
Before the mother could speak, the eldest sister put down the bowl with a stiff face, and knocked it on the table with a loud noise.
"I'm not letting anyone eat anymore!" She pushed the stool away irritably, took the bowl and went to the kitchen, "I won't eat!"
His mother looked at her back worriedly, and Zheng Zhize covered his mouth with a pale face: "Did I offend her again?"
This elder sister really doesn't have the demeanor of an elder sister, she is too unfriendly to them.
Jiang Chu looked at his mother's perfect side face, and put on a worried expression: "Let me go and see."
Mother nodded: "Okay, go and see Nana, and let her not lose her temper so easily."
Jiang Chu left the dining table and walked towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen he saw the eldest sister who was throwing up into the trash can.
When the elder sister saw him coming, she seemed even more ashamed and angry. She turned her head and wiped her mouth before suppressing her anger and saying, "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Chu: "I'll come and see you."
When Jiang Chu said the word "mother", the eldest sister's lips trembled. Although the movement was small, Jiang Chu still saw it.
It was an emotion of fear.
Jiang Chu's voice softened: "Sister, you don't seem to like us since childhood."
He waited for his elder sister's reaction.
As the NPC who has been in contact with her parents for the longest time, she is likely to have discovered something, but it seems that she doesn't like her younger siblings, and it may be difficult to get clues.
He waited for the elder sister to get angry again, but this time the elder sister was only silent for a while, and then sneered: "Who made you so annoying when you were young."
Jiang Chu: "But those are all things in the past."
The eldest sister trembled: "The past...the past..." She had a complicated expression, "Since you remember the past, don't you know how to read it yourself?!"
"You are so stupid." She was so angry that her chest heaved and she stared into Jiang Chu's eyes and said incoherently, "I think you should be kicked out and wash your eyes..."
She stopped abruptly, then lowered her head and silently washed the dishes.
Jiang Chu couldn't laugh anymore, because his mother was standing beside him.
She looked at her eldest sister with a smile, with a hint of sadness and pity in her eyes: "Nana, why are you angry with your younger brothers and sisters?"
The elder sister put down the bowl heavily, and she didn't look good towards her: "What's wrong? I didn't say anything wrong."
"Mom and Dad will be very angry and sad." Mother continued, "I have reminded you many times, would you like to see Mom and Dad like this?"
The eldest sister responded in silence, silently doing what she was doing.
Jiang Chu's feeling became stronger and stronger, this elder sister must know something.
She was reminding them that this family was in danger.
And she wanted to tell herself that there was a difference between the past and the present.
It's a pity that it's too late to remind them now, and the thick fog outside can no longer make them leave here.
Jiang Chu even suspected that the eldest sister was reminding them the first day, but her attitude was too bad and the information was too hidden, none of them could hear it.
After coming out of the kitchen, they found that their father had also come out.
He looked very haggard, his clothes more and more disheveled, and he sat at the table with a weak smile.
"I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen..." He sighed, "I have something to tell everyone... Everyone should have discovered that something is not normal at home."
Several players did not speak, and looked at him cautiously,
"There is thick fog outside now, and we can't go out." My father continued, "But I don't think we can stay any longer...As soon as the thick fog clears, we will move out of the house immediately."
The mother also wiped her tears: "Why did this kind of thing happen in our house?"
"These two NPCs..." Zheng Zhize moved his mouth, "What exactly do you want to do?"
He obviously knows everything about this family well, yet he wants to act like a harmonious family.
Simply confusing.
"By the way." He suddenly remembered something and looked around, "Where are those puppets?"
Mother said: "I don't know."
All the puppets around them suddenly disappeared.
In fact, it is in Jiang Chu's room, but he is not in the mood to answer now, and the other players will naturally not take the initiative to say it.
Who knew that what their father said in the next second would surprise them: "Let them come out to eat too."
Mother didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence: "Okay."
The player lowered his head, not daring to breathe.
First they took a family portrait with the dolls, and now they let the dolls serve dinner. Are these two NPCs really crazy?
Didn't they see this behavior as a problem? ?
What is even more confusing is that the sound actually came from the second floor.Just as Zheng Zhize said, more than a dozen dolls crawled down with their limbs swinging, surrounded them and barely stood up.
Now a few people can't eat at all.
It might as well be like the eldest sister just now, and leave with a face.
Father beckoned them to continue eating: "Eat, don't wait for the food to get cold."
"Father." Zheng Zhize couldn't bear it any longer, and asked directly, "Where did you hide in the morning?"
Ren Ya pulled him.
But his father really answered him: "Your mother and I are hiding in the room. Don't be afraid, the dense fog will definitely clear tomorrow, and we will leave early tomorrow morning."
Several people were silent.
I'm afraid I can't do without it at all.
Their guess was right, the ax man still appeared the next day, they found a place to hide and shivered, and then waited for their mother to knock on the door and ask them to eat.
The thick fog still hasn't dissipated, even covering their small courtyard, and now they may not even be able to get out of the room.
"It won't work like this." Ren Ya was the first to discover the problem, "He will destroy the places we hid the day before, and the places we can hide in are getting less and less."
Fortunately, Jiang Chu was more careful and told them not to hide in the usual place, otherwise they would be discovered today.
Zheng Zhize said: "There are four of us, can't we solve him directly?"
Jiang Chu shattered his fantasy: "Do you think it is a normal person who can smash a bed with an axe? Five people may not be able to beat him, unless you use more advanced props."
Jiang Yiyi immediately said: "Don't you have an A-level card?"
Jiang Chu said helplessly: "What use is the auxiliary A-level card? It's not like I haven't used it yesterday. The man with the ax must be a human, not a ghost."
On the contrary, the ghost in this house has been helping them. If he puts on a paradox mask and eliminates the ghost in his world, then he will really be helpless.
Jiang Chu put the vase on the window sill, looked at the glass covered by the curtains, and thought about it.
The mirror in their room was completely broken yesterday, as if they had completed the task of recreating the murder, and it was completely abandoned.
Since the mirror is used to reproduce the murder, why is the glass covered?
He felt that his thoughts were so crazy that when he stretched out his hand, he hesitated.
Those two NPCs are behind him...
"What are you doing?" His mother called him, "Why don't you come down?"
Jiang Chu agreed: "Right now."
He quickly stretched out his hand and opened the curtain by a corner.
This kind of curtain is very transparent, and the heavy fog outside can be seen almost without opening it, but it will cause poor reflection ability of the glass.
But as long as he opened it, there would be smooth glass without a trace of dust under the curtain, and he could clearly see the two busy green NPCs behind him.
I saw my father raised his head in doubt, and caught off guard and looked at himself in the glass.
What appeared on the glass was a bluish-white face.
At first, his face flashed with confusion and bewilderment, then gradually became frightened, and finally he let out a scream——
"Ah!! There are ghosts, there are ghosts there!!!" He covered his face and sat on the ground in horror.
Who is the person on the glass?
That's not him!
The mother was also taken aback, and hurried over to look at it, so two pale faces of a man and a woman appeared in the mirror.
Her face gradually became frightened, and she slowly stroked her own face, and also let out a scream.
"Who is that?!!?"
She couldn't even hold the fruit knife in her hand, and faced the face on the glass tremblingly.
The melons in the hands of the players next to them all fell. They have never seen an NPC so scared.
"Ghost, there are ghosts inside..."
Because she was too scared, she subconsciously threw the knife at him while trembling.
However, the knife was not thrown correctly. Not only was the direction crooked, it was also slapped away by an invisible hand halfway, and the knife fell directly to the ground.
Jiang Chu had already put down the curtains at this moment, and his hands were still frozen in the air.
Shocked.
Jiang Yiyi immediately rushed up to grab the woman, angrily: "What are you doing!!"
The woman burst into tears, as if she couldn't believe her actions: "I...I..."
She didn't even know why she did this.
She obviously loves these children very much, how could she point a knife at them.
Zheng Zhize and Ren Ya stared at Jiang Chu with stiff faces, and at that moment, they saw it too.
Their father's face was exactly the same as that of the man with the axe.
And Jiang Chu, who has entered the branch line of the game, knows that this is still the face of the man and woman who signed the contract.
It seemed that as long as the ax man dared to step in, he would kill him.
Jiang Chu went to touch the hand on his face, but he didn't feel anything, as if he just touched a cloud of air.
The legs protruding from the mirror froze in the air for a long time, and finally seemed to be unable to hold back, and slowly retracted.
After that, heavy footsteps came from the corridor, gradually walking away.
"What about people..."
There was a hoarse voice in his throat, and he seemed to only be able to say these words, licking the blood on the ax like a pervert.
There are so many people in this house, why are they all hiding now?
And why can't he find it?
When Jiang Chu didn't rush out, the youngest brother didn't leave the room either. He watched the ax man leave with wide eyes, his eyes were full of fear, and he hugged a puppet that got into his arms tightly.
The puppet in his arms was the one with the broken finger. It kept a ferocious expression, but gently hugged the child.
Jiang Chu moved, feeling that the confinement on his body was loosened a little, and then he said, "Who are you?"
The people behind did not speak.Jiang Chu waited for a while before remembering to look at the fragments of the mirror on the ground.

"Don't be fooled by them." He lowered his head and whispered in Jiang Chu's ear, "Those are just a pair of shameless and cowardly thieves."

He murmured, "It's time for lunch..."
"It's time for lunch..."
His voice was not deliberately amplified, but strangely, every player hiding in the house could hear it.
Jiang Yiyi and Ren Ya covered their mouths, thinking that he was going to eat people; Zheng Zhize, who was hiding under the table, looked ugly, because the dining table was on his head; only Jiang Chu felt that he really wanted to eat when he heard it.
A thing that looks like a crazy murderer is thinking about eating now?
As if for a signal, the sound of heavy footsteps and the dragging of the ax on the ground died away.
The players didn't dare to move and continued to hang on.
Jiang Chu felt like he was about to fall asleep when he heard his mother's knock on the door.
"Children, are you awake?" She said softly, "The house is safe now, let's go out and eat."
The girl's room was also rang, and the mother said the same thing.
Jiang Yiyi cursed in her heart that it was already noon and asked if she was awake?You should ask if you are dead or not?

Just in time to see Zheng Zhize coming upstairs carefully.
He said in surprise, "Xiaoya, are you okay!"
Ren Ya quickly opened the door to let him in, and shook her head to indicate that she was fine.
Jiang Yiyi immediately looked behind him and asked anxiously, "Isn't my brother with you?"
Zheng Zhize shook his head: "I ran away before I went downstairs."

According to Jiang Chu, as long as you sign a contract with the doll in the attic, you can get the ability to make people into dolls.
In this way, even if many people are tortured and killed, there is no need to worry about the disposal of the corpses, and the dolls can even be placed in a fair place.
After all, corpses can sometimes talk, and the last thing a murderer wants is to be caught telling off.
The corner of Jiang Chu's mouth was pressed down, and his face was worried: "The people under the floor...may have also been tortured and killed. We may see more murders in a few days, and we will meet the man with the ax every day."
When the person in the murder reappearance is killed, it is self-evident who the ax man's next target is.
"But." Jiang Yi racked his brains one by one, as if trying to come up with an answer, "What role did our family play in this murder case? Who was killed?"
Ren Ya said: "Maybe we were just unlucky, and just moved in here after the Yun family moved out... Wait."
She and Jiang looked at each other in horror.
It was really the Yun family who were killed!
"They didn't move to the countryside at all." Ren Ya sighed, "It's under our feet."
Zheng Zhize felt that his entire back was cold, and touched the goose bumps on his arms.
"Brother, you just said that you saw a man and a woman sign a contract with the devil in the branch line." Jiang Yiyi turned to Jiang Chu, "What do they look like? Are they the Yun family couple, or our parents?"
Jiang Chu said with a headache: "That's the problem, they are nobody."
The current parents are their parents, there is no doubt about it, according to the character information sent by their game background, these two people are the parents who raised them since childhood.
Now half of the story line is still unfinished, and they don't know what changes will be made in the follow-up plot. They can't jump to conclusions, so they can only put this issue aside for the time being.
The mother urged them downstairs again, so they had to go out one after another.
Jiang Yiyi deliberately took a step behind, and whispered to Jiang Chu: "Then you are all right, you also wrote your name on the contract..."
"It's okay, it's not my real name." Jiang Chu said, "It's just the name of the game."
Instead, it was Jiang Yiyi's turn to be taken aback.
Seeing that she was silent, Jiang Chu asked her, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yiyi blinked and said slowly, "Brother, what are you thinking? Of course I didn't mean that."
"It's just a game, what does it matter if you sign your real name?" She was a little puzzled, "I just want to ask if you will be controlled, and will you really be cruel to Zheng Zhize?"
Jiang Chu rubbed his temples with a headache.
It was because he thought too much, while thinking about the game, he also wanted to decrypt it.
What Jiang Yiyi said was right, it was just a game.
A few people lay on the table hungry and hungry, they didn't bother to look at the face of the NPC, they lowered their heads and ate their meals in silence.
This time the meal was extremely heavy, almost everyone's faces were stiff, and they couldn't eat.
The mother looked at them worriedly: "What's the matter, children? Is the food not to your taste?"
Perhaps Zheng Zhize thought of the split head, and vomited it out.
It's so disgusting.
Before the mother could speak, the eldest sister put down the bowl with a stiff face, and knocked it on the table with a loud noise.
"I'm not letting anyone eat anymore!" She pushed the stool away irritably, took the bowl and went to the kitchen, "I won't eat!"
His mother looked at her back worriedly, and Zheng Zhize covered his mouth with a pale face: "Did I offend her again?"
This elder sister really doesn't have the demeanor of an elder sister, she is too unfriendly to them.
Jiang Chu looked at his mother's perfect side face, and put on a worried expression: "Let me go and see."
Mother nodded: "Okay, go and see Nana, and let her not lose her temper so easily."
Jiang Chu left the dining table and walked towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen he saw the eldest sister who was throwing up into the trash can.
When the elder sister saw him coming, she seemed even more ashamed and angry. She turned her head and wiped her mouth before suppressing her anger and saying, "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Chu: "I'll come and see you."
When Jiang Chu said the word "mother", the eldest sister's lips trembled. Although the movement was small, Jiang Chu still saw it.
It was an emotion of fear.
Jiang Chu's voice softened: "Sister, you don't seem to like us since childhood."
He waited for his elder sister's reaction.
As the NPC who has been in contact with her parents for the longest time, she is likely to have discovered something, but it seems that she doesn't like her younger siblings, and it may be difficult to get clues.
He waited for the elder sister to get angry again, but this time the elder sister was only silent for a while, and then sneered: "Who made you so annoying when you were young."
Jiang Chu: "But those are all things in the past."
The eldest sister trembled: "The past...the past..." She had a complicated expression, "Since you remember the past, don't you know how to read it yourself?!"
"You are so stupid." She was so angry that her chest heaved and she stared into Jiang Chu's eyes and said incoherently, "I think you should be kicked out and wash your eyes..."
She stopped abruptly, then lowered her head and silently washed the dishes.
Jiang Chu couldn't laugh anymore, because his mother was standing beside him.
She looked at her eldest sister with a smile, with a hint of sadness and pity in her eyes: "Nana, why are you angry with your younger brothers and sisters?"
The elder sister put down the bowl heavily, and she didn't look good towards her: "What's wrong? I didn't say anything wrong."
"Mom and Dad will be very angry and sad." Mother continued, "I have reminded you many times, would you like to see Mom and Dad like this?"
The eldest sister responded in silence, silently doing what she was doing.
Jiang Chu's feeling became stronger and stronger, this elder sister must know something.
She was reminding them that this family was in danger.
And she wanted to tell herself that there was a difference between the past and the present.
It's a pity that it's too late to remind them now, and the thick fog outside can no longer make them leave here.
Jiang Chu even suspected that the eldest sister was reminding them the first day, but her attitude was too bad and the information was too hidden, none of them could hear it.
After coming out of the kitchen, they found that their father had also come out.
He looked very haggard, his clothes more and more disheveled, and he sat at the table with a weak smile.
"I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen..." He sighed, "I have something to tell everyone... Everyone should have discovered that something is not normal at home."
Several players did not speak, and looked at him cautiously,
"There is thick fog outside now, and we can't go out." My father continued, "But I don't think we can stay any longer...As soon as the thick fog clears, we will move out of the house immediately."
The mother also wiped her tears: "Why did this kind of thing happen in our house?"
"These two NPCs..." Zheng Zhize moved his mouth, "What exactly do you want to do?"
He obviously knows everything about this family well, yet he wants to act like a harmonious family.
Simply confusing.
"By the way." He suddenly remembered something and looked around, "Where are those puppets?"
Mother said: "I don't know."
All the puppets around them suddenly disappeared.
In fact, it is in Jiang Chu's room, but he is not in the mood to answer now, and the other players will naturally not take the initiative to say it.
Who knew that what their father said in the next second would surprise them: "Let them come out to eat too."
Mother didn't think there was anything wrong with this sentence: "Okay."
The player lowered his head, not daring to breathe.
First they took a family portrait with the dolls, and now they let the dolls serve dinner. Are these two NPCs really crazy?
Didn't they see this behavior as a problem? ?
What is even more confusing is that the sound actually came from the second floor.Just as Zheng Zhize said, more than a dozen dolls crawled down with their limbs swinging, surrounded them and barely stood up.
Now a few people can't eat at all.
It might as well be like the eldest sister just now, and leave with a face.
Father beckoned them to continue eating: "Eat, don't wait for the food to get cold."
"Father." Zheng Zhize couldn't bear it any longer, and asked directly, "Where did you hide in the morning?"
Ren Ya pulled him.
But his father really answered him: "Your mother and I are hiding in the room. Don't be afraid, the dense fog will definitely clear tomorrow, and we will leave early tomorrow morning."
Several people were silent.
I'm afraid I can't do without it at all.
Their guess was right, the ax man still appeared the next day, they found a place to hide and shivered, and then waited for their mother to knock on the door and ask them to eat.
The thick fog still hasn't dissipated, even covering their small courtyard, and now they may not even be able to get out of the room.
"It won't work like this." Ren Ya was the first to discover the problem, "He will destroy the places we hid the day before, and the places we can hide in are getting less and less."
Fortunately, Jiang Chu was more careful and told them not to hide in the usual place, otherwise they would be discovered today.
Zheng Zhize said: "There are four of us, can't we solve him directly?"
Jiang Chu shattered his fantasy: "Do you think it is a normal person who can smash a bed with an axe? Five people may not be able to beat him, unless you use more advanced props."
Jiang Yiyi immediately said: "Don't you have an A-level card?"
Jiang Chu said helplessly: "What use is the auxiliary A-level card? It's not like I haven't used it yesterday. The man with the ax must be a human, not a ghost."
On the contrary, the ghost in this house has been helping them. If he puts on a paradox mask and eliminates the ghost in his world, then he will really be helpless.
Jiang Chu put the vase on the window sill, looked at the glass covered by the curtains, and thought about it.
The mirror in their room was completely broken yesterday, as if they had completed the task of recreating the murder, and it was completely abandoned.
Since the mirror is used to reproduce the murder, why is the glass covered?
He felt that his thoughts were so crazy that when he stretched out his hand, he hesitated.
Those two NPCs are behind him...
"What are you doing?" His mother called him, "Why don't you come down?"
Jiang Chu agreed: "Right now."
He quickly stretched out his hand and opened the curtain by a corner.
This kind of curtain is very transparent, and the heavy fog outside can be seen almost without opening it, but it will cause poor reflection ability of the glass.
But as long as he opened it, there would be smooth glass without a trace of dust under the curtain, and he could clearly see the two busy green NPCs behind him.
I saw my father raised his head in doubt, and caught off guard and looked at himself in the glass.
What appeared on the glass was a bluish-white face.
At first, his face flashed with confusion and bewilderment, then gradually became frightened, and finally he let out a scream——
"Ah!! There are ghosts, there are ghosts there!!!" He covered his face and sat on the ground in horror.
Who is the person on the glass?
That's not him!
The mother was also taken aback, and hurried over to look at it, so two pale faces of a man and a woman appeared in the mirror.
Her face gradually became frightened, and she slowly stroked her own face, and also let out a scream.
"Who is that?!!?"
She couldn't even hold the fruit knife in her hand, and faced the face on the glass tremblingly.
The melons in the hands of the players next to them all fell. They have never seen an NPC so scared.
"Ghost, there are ghosts inside..."
Because she was too scared, she subconsciously threw the knife at him while trembling.
However, the knife was not thrown correctly. Not only was the direction crooked, it was also slapped away by an invisible hand halfway, and the knife fell directly to the ground.
Jiang Chu had already put down the curtains at this moment, and his hands were still frozen in the air.
Shocked.
Jiang Yiyi immediately rushed up to grab the woman, angrily: "What are you doing!!"
The woman burst into tears, as if she couldn't believe her actions: "I...I..."
She didn't even know why she did this.
She obviously loves these children very much, how could she point a knife at them.
Zheng Zhize and Ren Ya stared at Jiang Chu with stiff faces, and at that moment, they saw it too.
Their father's face was exactly the same as that of the man with the axe.
And Jiang Chu, who has entered the branch line of the game, knows that this is still the face of the man and woman who signed the contract.
