I'm afraid of non-human beings

It has just rained in this forest, and the land is quite moist.Although Lin You had tried to avoid those muddy places as much as possible, there was still a lot of dirt on the hem of the shoes.

She made a "tsk" sound, and simply didn't care about it anymore, and continued to walk over there with deep kicks and shallow kicks.

When it comes to the cabin in the woods, the first thing that comes to mind is the movie.

The protagonists took advantage of the vacation to go to the forest cabin owned by one of their uncles. When they were having fun, the cellar door somewhere popped open inexplicably.

After they went down, they found that there were all kinds of strange objects in the basement, including a diary that recorded how a family committed suicide because of the cult, a music box that was constantly spinning by a ballerina, and a Rubik's cube with weird shapes.

When the heroine recited the spell recorded in the diary, the family that had become zombies crawled out from the grave not far away.

As soon as the camera turned, researchers from a certain institution toasted and cheered, celebrating that the ceremony was on track.It turns out that all this is just for the protagonist and others to be sacrificed to be killed by the monsters in the agreed order, so as to calm the anger of the ancient evil gods who are about to wake up.

Every item in the basement is a token, and touching it will release the monster it represents.

To some extent, it is similar to her cards.

It was very quiet in the woods, not even the occasional bird song or two could be heard.If there was anything strange, it was because she was the only one in sight here.

If she really did the sacrifice according to what she guessed, there must be other people there.The wooden house was also different from what she remembered.

I don't know what the setting is here.

Anyway, let's go in and have a look.

Lin You's hand on the doorknob tightened. She took a deep breath, and besides being nervous, she was also a little excited.

——just in time for her illustration book to be upgraded, and a lot of card slots were vacated.If you really have those tokens, you can trigger whichever monster you want, wouldn't it be a good time to fill it up.

She pushed the door open.

The dust that hit her face made her almost sneeze, and the sunlight from the opposite window refracted the dust in the air, clearly showing the fact that there was no one here.

Passing the dusty sofa and coffee table behind the door, Lin You glanced around, and finally saw the only thing that matched her impression.

In the corner of the living room, the carpet that had been covering it was thrown aside, and there seemed to be a staircase under the wide open trap door.

She couldn't help but feel refreshed, and searched around in the living room. After finding a flashlight under the coffee table that was still barely bright after twisting hard, she strode over there.

however……

When she climbed down the stairs in the dark with difficulty, what she saw was an unexpected and reasonable scene.

The basement was empty, with the shelves and tables erected on both sides, except for the dust that was as thick as two fingers, there was not even a hair.

Lin You: "..."

Lin You: "?????"

a bolt from the blue.

Falling from heaven to hell is nothing more than that.

It may be a bit exaggerated to say so, although she had expected it, but after actually seeing it, she was more or less disappointed.

To be honest, even if the crisis of her own life fell on Lin You, she really didn't care much.

In her eyes, life and death are just a thin line, and it is better to let go of your hands and feet than to fight back.Take advantage of this opportunity to collect a few more cards, but you can win more cards for yourself.

It's a pity that the plan is not as fast as changing. Walking through the rows of narrow wooden frames, through the faint light of the flashlight, Lin You can tell that there are round or square holes left on the boards of different heights. Traces—something has been placed on it, but there is also a thin layer of dust on those traces, obviously someone has taken them all away.

Fortunately, she did not return empty-handed.

The blurred light of the flashlight illuminated a certain black shadow on the innermost wooden frame. Lin You guessed that the electricity would last for a while, so she walked straight over.

A wooden box not much bigger than a palm was placed there upright, she pondered for a while, and did not rush to touch it, but took off the note on it first.

[Hope or despair? 】

It was a simple sentence, but Lin You pondered over it two or three times in a playful manner.

Judging from all the signs, of course this level will not have the same name, and all the clues can be linked to the original work.

In the movie, the entire forest is a "stage" set up by the black hands behind the scenes for the sacrificial ceremony. It is impossible to escape easily by oneself alone. What kind of test is it to sell, but nine out of ten it is still related to the successful customs clearance.

Although this cannot really be determined, why "despair" is a certainty.If the settings in it are still continued, it is very likely that what is contained in it is a token that can activate monsters.

In other words, if you want to pass the level, you must open the box to get clues, but opening it may just ruin your own life, and life and death are bet on that one-half—or even lower probability.

But, for Lin You, it doesn't matter which one can do what she wants.

She weighed the wooden box, the box itself was quite heavy, and it was tightly sealed, no matter how shaken it was, no sound could be heard from inside.In the end, Lin You had no choice but to give up the temptation, and directly opened the lid of the box resignedly.

Inside was a flimsy piece of paper.

Lin You put the wooden box aside, held up the piece of paper and shone it with a flashlight. It looked more like a torn corner, with lines of different thicknesses drawn on it.The red dot marked on it should be the wooden house she is in, and it also briefly outlines the nearby terrain.

Map... huh?

She stared at the piece of paper and fell into thought. She stood there and waited quietly for a while, but she didn't hear any suspicious noises.

It seems that she really got "hope" this time.

Collect all the fragments to form a complete map - or more things, there is a chance to get out of here and pass the level.

After the lights flickered around, Lin You determined that there were no more valuable clues here, so she climbed up again from the only exit in a disinterested manner.

The remaining power of the flashlight was completely exhausted, and before she could take a good look at the fragment of the map in the sunlight, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the window, which attracted her attention.

...? !

Lin You walked over quickly, wondering if she had really driven into something dangerous, when she saw someone struggling not far away.

Looking left and right, she always felt that the person who had fallen into the pile of fallen leaves looked vaguely familiar.

"Uh..." She raised her voice slightly, "Geng Qinghe?"

Geng Qinghe, who still had a few leaves hanging on his head, raised his head in shock.

He has an idea now.

——It was worth the fall.

It's the boss!

"Sister You?! Is that you, Sister You!"

His face was still grinning, but he didn't even care about patting the dirt, he hurriedly got up and ran over here.

Lin You looked him up and down again and again, "...Are you okay?"

"It's actually nothing."

He scratched his head embarrassingly.

"It's just that I accidentally tripped over a tree root while I was walking, and when I raised my head, I bumped into a branch above my head, and that's what happened when I couldn't stabilize myself. The fall didn't hurt, so I got a little muddy, anyway..."

Geng Qinghe paused, "... I'm used to it."

Lin You: "..."

This is not necessary.

"But I didn't expect," his eyes sparkled, "I really saw you so soon. Will Yin Sheng and the others be there?"

Lin You said "Oh", "Then I don't know."

It seems that, as she thought, the player base of this level is large enough to allow the former teammates to meet so quickly.

She and Geng Qinghe stepped into the light circle one after the other, so it made sense to be thrown in a nearby place.But both Yin Sheng and Guan Chuchu were a little earlier than them, so it was hard to say exactly where they fell.

"By the way," Geng Qinghe remembered now, "I just... just picked this up."

He took out an almost identical wooden box.

"There is also a note along with it."

Geng Qinghe took a breath: "But when I fell, I fell into the mud, and now..."

He awkwardly held the note that was so tainted that only one or two characters could be read.

"This..."

Lin You said slowly, "I have a little idea."

After hearing her discovery, Geng Qinghe didn't even have any blood left on his face.

"Then, this box—"

"It doesn't matter," she tilted her head, "Since you found it, open it and have a look."

Geng Qinghe pointed at himself hesitantly, but finally gritted his teeth and lifted the lid of the box with such trivial hopes.

A blood-stained knife lay quietly on the napkin.

Geng Qinghe's heart skipped a beat.

——He knew that he shouldn't count on his own luck! !

He raised his head almost in despair, but saw Lin You's eyes flickering.

She pondered: "How about... I will open all the boxes I find in the future for you."

Geng Qinghe: "...Huh??"

"Just kidding." Lin You stopped laughing, "If I were you, I would stay away from the window now."

She couldn't guess who was the representative of such popular things as table knives.

but--

It is always right to be cautious at such times.

They were standing in the wooden house, and Geng Qinghe, who had just entered, was next to the door and window. Hearing this, he reflexively withdrew his hand resting on the window frame.

That is, in the next second, the same table knife as in the box was firmly nailed into the position where his hand was just now.

"Oh, what a pity..."

Geng Qinghe shuddered, almost breaking out in cold sweat.He turned his head in horror, watching helplessly as a small hand grabbed the table knife and slammed it on the window frame.

Then, the guy who was about half a person tall also rolled in.

Although it looks like a doll, its skin is more like a real person, with several scars lying across its face, together with the opened "flesh and blood", it looks extraordinarily hideous and strange.

The guy in the overalls drew the knife and turned his scarred face to them.

"Hey," he said maliciously, "anyone want to play a killing game with Chucky?"
