I am the wildest among NPCs [Infinite Stream]
Chapter 38 Mask 3
The white shadow flashed quickly, and Yan Xiashen didn't see it clearly. Facing Lingyue's questioning, he could only answer "I don't know".
The steward said that Yan Xiashen was confused. To the players, both Yan Xiashen and the steward were ordinary npcs, and they would not trust anyone.
But Lingyue chose to believe Yan Xiashen, "I think the chef's words are more credible. I don't know whether the white shadow is a reflection of the mirror or it is in the mirror itself. Please pay attention to the mirror in the castle. Don't get too close. Don't stare too long."
"What are you afraid of? There are no ghosts in this world. It's just that the castle at night has a natural mysterious atmosphere..." NPC Xiaolu paused and raised his tone, "This atmosphere is most suitable for playing games. How about we go play a game?"
Yan Xiashen received a notification from the system that the players could not refuse this request.It is conceivable that this game is not very friendly to players.
After Xiaolu turned around, Shi Jin said in a deep voice, "The system doesn't let you reject the game, there must be murderous intent."
The players cheered up after hearing the words.
Going down to the lobby on the first floor, Shi Jin asked Xiaolu, "What are you playing?"
"Play the classic game—Truth or Dare," Little Green took out a deck of playing cards from the drawer, and sat cross-legged on the carpet, "Sit down, I'm going to announce the rules."
The players sit down and form a circle.
Yan Xiashen squeezed into the circle, and said with a smile: "Add me, don't you mind?"
The butler showed dissatisfaction and wanted to stop him, but Xiaolu said casually: "It's okay, the chef has worked hard today, let's play games and relax."
Shi Jin silently changed his position and sat next to Yan Xiashen.
Little Green shuffled the cards and spread them out on the carpet, "Let's play by drawing cards. The two joker cards are the largest, followed by the Ace of Spades, and the 2 tiles are the smallest. Everyone must draw cards in each round of the game. Among them, the person with the largest and smallest cards is punished and the questions are drawn from the black box."
The butler took out a black box in time and placed it among the crowd.
There is no room for negotiation on the rules of the game. Players can only "play" according to the rules set by Xiaolu.
Players, you look at me, I look at you, no one draws the first card.
The player in the black hat winked at Lingyue, "Are you vampires that cowardly?"
Lingyue sneered, "You have scolded all the players over and over."
When they were fighting each other, Yan Xiashen drew the first card, "Let me try my luck."
After Yan Xiashen drew all the cards, he turned the card directly, and it was an ace of spades.Unlike the players, Yan Xiashen really wanted to play games.
As soon as he played this card, the players all heaved a sigh of relief.As long as no one draws a ghost card, one of the punishments for this round will fall on Yan Xiashen.Some people have already whispered that Xia Shen is a fairy NPC, who specializes in blocking swords for players.
"Yo, Mr. Chef is very lucky." Lingyue drew the second card with a smile, and the smile on her face suddenly froze when she saw the card.
Yan Xiashen gloated, "It seems that your luck is 'better' than mine."
Lingyue twitched her mouth, did not announce her own card, and said impatiently to other players: "Draw, what are you waiting for?"
The players smiled, drew cards one by one, and opened the cards one by one.
"Jack of Hearts."
"Club K."
The face of the female player in the pink skirt was extremely ugly, and even her voice became tense, "Brick 2."
With the lowest card, she must be punished.
"Don't panic, don't you have me to accompany you?" Lingyue threw out the cards in her hand, "Red Ghost."
Xiaolu put down the cards in her hand and pointed to the black box in the center, "The largest and smallest cards have appeared, please draw the punishment."
Lingyue took a look inside the black box, and said jokingly: "It's weird, you can't see anything in it, except for the punishment questions, you can't hide other things in it, right?"
Xiaolu chuckled lightly, and answered him in a joking voice, "It's impossible to have a hand inside."
Lingyue couldn't laugh anymore, picked up the black box and shook it downwards, and after a long time, nothing fell out.
Xiaolu adjusted her glasses, "If you delay like this, aren't you afraid of getting a super hard punishment?"
Lingyue understood Xiaolu's "threat", stopped playing tricks, put down the box and prepared to draw questions.
The female player in the pink skirt hurriedly stopped, "Wait, can you help me with a question by the way?"
Lingyue understood her thoughts, she was very gentleman, and did not reject her, "Aren't you afraid that I will get bad questions if I get a bad one?"
"In terms of luck, you and I are the same, as long as you are willing to help."
"alright."
Lingyue put her hand into the black box, and suddenly exclaimed, she wanted to pull out her hand, but it was like being sucked by something, and she couldn't pull it out for a long time.
Wherever there is excitement, there is Yan Xiashen, he was the first to go over, "What's wrong?"
"The hand was caught." Lingyue gritted her teeth, pressed the black box with one hand, and pulled out her hand from the box cruelly.
Yan Xia got very close, and the moment Lingyue pulled out his hand, he saw a dark red mist surging in the box, and two pale, rotten fingers protruded from the red mist, hooking Lingyue's. palm.
After Lingyue completely withdrew her hand, the red mist dissipated, and Yan Xiashen saw that ghost hand spread its palm, revealing a blood-red eye, which disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the black box was once again pitch black.
"It hurts me to death." Two dark red bloodstains were drawn on the back of Lingyue's hand, which were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.Rapid healing is probably one of the racial talents of vampires.
"Did you get the question?" Yan Xiashen asked.
"Of course." Lingyue spread out her palms and handed two folded notes to the female player, "You choose one."
"Thank you." The female player in the pink skirt opened one of the notes and read the words on it, "Honestly, have you participated in or indirectly participated in campus bullying? Please answer in detail."
Everyone was looking at her, Xiaolu shuffled the cards in her hand, and said meaningfully: "In the truth-telling session, don't lie."
Yan Xiashen intuitively felt that this had something to do with the plot of the dungeon, so he immediately pricked up his ears.
The female player in the pink skirt rubbed the note in her hand, and after a moment of deliberation, she said, "I remembered something, but I don't know if it can be regarded as indirectly participating in campus bullying, because I didn't do it voluntarily."
Yan Xiashen guessed that the players all had scripts for their characters and knew some clues.This female player is very smart. On the basis of not lying, she chose a tone and angle that is beneficial to her.
"It's mentioned in the request, you have to talk about it in detail." Xiaolu folded the cards neatly and put them down gently, "You tell me, and we will help you judge whether you have participated in campus bullying."
The female player in the pink skirt sat down cross-legged, and said slowly: "One day, I was doing papers in the classroom, and there was a commotion outside the classroom, and I was dragged out by my classmates to watch the excitement."
After the female player said this, the other players paid more attention to her.
Xiaolu lowered her head, unable to see her expression clearly, "Continue talking."
"After I went out, I saw a lot of people gathered in the corridor. I stood on tiptoe and found a girl squatting on the ground wet, and everyone around her was talking about her."
"What about you, did you laugh at her?" Xiaolu asked again.
The female player in the pink skirt looked away, and answered irrelevantly, "I didn't see her face clearly, and I went back to the classroom soon."
Xiaolu raised her head, her eyes were scrutinizing, "So you don't know who did that?"
The female player in the pink skirt shook the note, "I have already answered the above questions."
Xiaolu squinted her eyes, didn't grab her, and looked at Lingyue again, "It's your turn."
Lingyue shrugged, opened the small note in her hand, and read aloud: "Great adventure, in a certain room on the third floor of the castle, there is a mask hidden. Go find it and bring it to everyone."
The word "mask" made all the players change their faces.
The man in the black hat said loudly: "As soon as I came up, I was punished with a king bomb. I can only wish you well."
Rose glanced at him, "Don't act like you're staying out of it. After Lingyue finds the mask, she will bring it here. By the way, please wish us all peace."
The face in the black hat darkened for a moment, and he said coldly, "That depends on whether he can come back."
"Don't worry, I will live longer than you," Lingyue changed into an innocent expression after she finished speaking, and pulled Yan Xiashen's sleeve, "Mr. Chef, you can go with me."
The rules don't say that you can't find someone to accompany you, but he will take advantage of loopholes.
Yan Xiashen's task was to help the players pass the level. He wanted to be on the front line, but he didn't want someone to die at the beginning, so he agreed to Lingyue without hesitation.
Shi Jin pushed Lingyue's hand away and squeezed between him and Yan Xiashen, "Let's go together."
Rose stood up slowly, straightened her skirt, "Add me, lest someone be directly killed by the opening."
Lingyue muttered in a low voice, "I'm not that weak."
Yan Xia thought about it deeply, and asked Xiaolu, "Is there no time limit for the big adventure?"
Xiaolu waved her fingers, and a reflection flashed in her glasses, "There is no time limit, and the mask is not hard to find. You can accompany him, but he must be the one who comes back with the mask."
Lingyue spread her hands, "You say that, it makes me a little nervous."
The four of them went straight to the third floor, and Lingyue pushed open the door of the study when she came up, "Mr. Chef has seen Bai Ying in the study, so let's search here first. We didn't see the mask when we visited the castle. It may be stored in a closed room." place, focus on finding drawers and cabinets."
They scattered to look for it, Yan Xiashen and Lingyue both aimed at the desk, they searched through the drawers, but couldn't find anything useful.
Lingyue was a little disappointed, "I'll go over there and look for it."
Yan Xia nodded deeply, and tidied up all the open drawers and desktops. At the end, he accidentally touched the mouse, and the computer turned on.
The computer wallpaper was a group photo in school uniform, and Yan Xiashen saw many familiar faces on it - most of the players were in the photo.
There are several folders named after serial numbers on the desktop of the computer. Yan Xiashen clicked on each of them and found that all of them had passwords set.
The sound of the failure to open the folder attracted the other three people, and they moved closer to Yan Xiashen.
"Mr. Chef, what did you find?"
Yan Xiashen didn't say anything, but just flicked the mouse.
Lingyue looked at the computer desktop and got serious, "Does this computer have internet?"
"No."
Rose said: "There are a lot of people in the group photo, it may be a group photo of two classes."
Lingyue sorted out the information, "From the perspective of this game, the reason why we appear here is related to a school bullying incident that happened once. The girl who was bullied is probably in this photo, but based on our current I know the information, but I don't know who she is for the time being."
Rose thought for a while, "The information we got is not exactly the same, and someone may already know who that girl is."
"It's hard to say whether the other players know, but Xiaolu must know." Shi Jin knocked on the table, "He was the one who brought us to the castle."
Yan Xia frowned deeply, "Have you noticed, Xiaolu...my boss is not in this group photo."
The study suddenly fell silent, and the other three re-examined the group photo to confirm that what Yan Xiashen said was true.
"The information in this computer is very important, but we can't decipher it for the time being. The first thing to do is to find the mask." Lingyue said.
Rose agreed: "You're right, let's put the computer on beforehand."
After making a decision, they turned and left without hesitation.
Behind them, the computer screen went dark, and in the group photo, a girl raised her head slowly and grinned.
A wet hand stretched out from the computer and grabbed Yan Xiashen's back.
"Little... little chef, watch the road." Shi Jin suddenly grabbed Yan Xiashen's hand and gave him a hand. Yan Xiashen couldn't stand still and almost fell on Shi Jin.The ghost hand behind him just caught the air, and retracted into the computer irritably.
The steward said that Yan Xiashen was confused. To the players, both Yan Xiashen and the steward were ordinary npcs, and they would not trust anyone.
But Lingyue chose to believe Yan Xiashen, "I think the chef's words are more credible. I don't know whether the white shadow is a reflection of the mirror or it is in the mirror itself. Please pay attention to the mirror in the castle. Don't get too close. Don't stare too long."
