Anyway, it's nice to have a hot shower.

The room was not big, so Xing Ye checked every corner to make sure no one was peeping, and then took off his clothes and entered the tub.

The mirror was still stuck in front of his chest, and sank to the bottom of the tub as soon as he entered the water. Xing Ye ignored the mirror and quickly washed his face and hair.

On weekdays, it only takes Xing Ye 5 minutes to take a shower from undressing to walking out of the bathroom, but now his hair is too long, and he hasn’t washed it for a long time. After taking a shower, I rubbed my hair for half an hour.

He washes his body first, and then washes his hair after putting on his clothes, so as not to wash his hair for nothing because it is too dirty.

I finally washed my hair, and the water in the tub had turned gray. A mirror was struggling to float on the water in a posture that violated the principles of classical physics. The mirror surface was gray and could no longer reflect anything.

Xing Ye looked at the mirror struggling coldly, picked up the small basin next to the bathtub and asked, "There is clear water here, do you want to wash?"

"Yes!" The exclamation mark on the mirror was bigger than the handwriting.

Xing Ye smiled slightly: "Then what exactly are you?"

Mirror:"……"

Along the way, Xing Ye confirmed two things.

First, the constantly updated background of the story is artificially changed at any time. It is precisely to confirm this that Xing Ye kicked the mirror into the river.In the initial game introduction, the system specifically reminded the manipulator that they could not modify the pre-set ending, which easily gave people the illusion that they could not intervene in the game, but the ending is not equal to the process, and the manipulator can modify the narration according to his choice.

Second, the narrator has no control over the mirror.This is very important. According to the setting of the narration, this should be a magic mirror. It is alive and has its own preferences. It is because it likes Claire that it follows Claire with a stern face.But the mirror showed extremely obvious dislike and reluctance, and sometimes even didn't want to perform the duties of the mirror, and the narrator didn't seem to notice its resistance.

Even if Xing Ye doesn't play games, from a business point of view, he can easily think that no game developer will prepare an artifact for players in Novice Village, which will break the balance.

This mirror is either a bug or has another identity.

After Xing Ye asked the question, the mirror stopped moving and slowly sank into the bottom of the bathtub, as if he would rather drown and die than tell Xing Ye the answer.

This is even more interesting.

Xing Ye picked up the mirror before it completely sank, washed it with clean water, looked at the mirror that still couldn't see a face and said, "Can you tell who is the player?"

The mirror is silent and does not respond. According to its performance during this period of time, it should be affirmative not to say negative.

If it is willing to cooperate, it is indeed an artifact.

"Even if I know, I don't need it," Xing Ye patted the mirror, "Anyway, it's not too hard to guess."

After speaking, he stuffed the mirror into his chest.

Mirror: "NO!!!"

Xing Ye, who glimpsed the word from the corner of his eye, completely ignored its resistance, put on a black and white maid outfit, and walked out of the room with his hair loose.

The older maid waiting outside the door frowned slightly: "What's the matter with your hair?"

"It's not done yet." Xing Ye casually tossed his messy hair.

"Come with me." The older maid took Xing Ye to another room, combed his wet hair and put on a headscarf like other maids.

After finishing her hair, she brought Xing Ye to the earl's room, and when she arrived at the door, a maid was thrown out.

She was barely clothed, was covered in bruises and had almost all her teeth pulled out.Xing Ye knelt down and checked her pulse, she was already dead.

"Change another maid." A man's voice came from inside the room.

Without even shaking her eyelashes, the older maid said calmly to Xing Ye, "Claire, Earl Luca is calling you."

Xing Ye stood up, took a deep look at her, and strode into Earl Luca's room.

Narrator: "Clare was so horrified by the maid's death that she clutched at her skirt, fearing she would be the next victim."

It is already night now, the room is full of candles, and a half-naked man is lying on the gorgeous bed. When he saw Xing Ye, he said, "Close the door and come here."

Xing Ye not only closed the door, but also locked it.

There were many instruments of torture tied to the bed, and Xing Ye looked at them one by one while walking, and his steps were not chaotic, and finally stood still in front of Earl Luca.

This is a very thin man with a whip in his hand.Xing Ye's height put tremendous pressure on him, Earl Luca couldn't help standing up from the bed, and found that he was still half a head shorter than Xing Ye.

"I hate people looking down on me." Earl Luca said gloomily, he raised his whip and lashed at Xing Ye.

Xing Ye had sharp eyes and quick hands. The moment he raised his hand, he grabbed his arm with one hand and covered Earl Luca's mouth with the other to prevent him from making a sound.

Earl Luca's eyes widened, his pupils shrank, and he struggled desperately, but Xing Ye's height and strength were all his own, and the system did not change his original physical condition except for his gender.

How could Earl Luca, who was overindulgent, be as strong as Xing Ye, who paid great attention to physical exercise and often asked his bodyguards about self-defense.

Xing Ye quickly grabbed the whip from Earl Luca's hand, tied him up with the tools in the room, and gagged him.There was a loud noise in the room when the two were fighting, and Xing Ye yelled "Ah! It hurts" and "Lord Earl, please let me go" at the top of his voice while subduing him.

After tying up the count, he picked him up with one hand, dragged the thin Count Luca to the door, opened the door a crack, and slightly opened the cloth blocking the count's mouth.

Sure enough, Earl Luca immediately shouted: "Come on, this..."

Xing Ye only asked him to shout this sentence, and immediately knocked him out.

He dragged the count to hide behind the door, and when he saw the elderly maid guarding the door cautiously walking in, he immediately closed and locked the door.

The older maid turned her head when she heard the door closing, and saw that Xing Ye threw the fainted Earl on the ground like a rag.

"Before calling someone, think about whether the manipulator can be discovered." Xing Ye stopped the screaming of the elderly maid with one sentence.

"You, what are you talking about?" The older maid asked with a pale face, looking at the lifeless Count Luca.

Xing Ye felt flustered by the mirror, and took the mirror out of his chest while talking: "It's easy to guess who is the manipulator. The narration can only control the NPC's actions, but it can't control my thoughts. The manipulator wants the plot to follow As long as my own setting continues, I will definitely correct it myself. In order to ensure that I can be selected as Earl Luca's maid, one of the three people who select the maid must be the manipulator."

Xing Ye picked up the whip that fell on the ground and said: "Count Luca is a nobleman with a special habit. He is keen on hurting maids who have no resistance. If I fall in love with him, then there are only two endings. One is to be killed." Recognizing the identity of a man, the mission failed; the other one was tortured to death by Count Luca, achieving the ending you set, right?"

As he approached step by step, the older maid kept backing away until her back was pressed against the wall and she could not retreat. Then she said in a trembling voice, "You, why did you guess it was me?"

"It's too simple. Before I entered the bathroom, the old butler was guarding the door. When I came out, it became you. As a manipulator, you should hope to see my end with your own eyes."

The older maid who had no reason to argue anymore sat down on the ground and said weakly: "You are right, I am one of the manipulators, you won this game, but there are still two of us, and you still have to deal with it now." Consider how to escape from the Earl's manor."

"Oh?" Xing Ye looked down at the older maid, waiting for her next words.

"There are many guards in the earl's mansion. Even if you can defeat one earl, it is impossible to defeat so many guards. If you hurt the earl, you will definitely not be able to escape. I can help you." The elderly maid said, "my identity is set It was the nanny who brought the earl up since he was a child, he respected me a lot, and I also have the right to speak in the manor."

Xing Ye looked the older maid up and down: "What a good proposal, if you help me escape, what will happen to you?"

"Probably will be executed by the angry earl." The older maid smiled bitterly and shook her head, "But I have already lost, and the player will not die in the game, so I can return to the system space in advance by doing this. There is no need to stay here and do hard work. After all, I am a modern person, and of course I hope to get rid of the status of a servant as soon as possible."

"Thank you so much." Xing Ye smiled kindly.

"Thank you for telling me another rule of this game." Xing Ye said, "I have been thinking about the meaning of the word 'ending' before. The so-called ending of the story, whose ending is it? Most people think it is the ending of the executor , after all, Claire is the protagonist in the story, but this is actually another misunderstanding, because this is from the perspective of the executor. And if you stand from the standpoint of the manipulator, there should be two protagonists, one is Claire , and the other is the manipulation itself, which is what happens to the older maid you play.

When a manipulator has two endings, what he must do is double insurance.The apparent ending is that Claire failed to be found as a player and was abused to death by the earl. When neither of these can be achieved, the manipulator can choose another ending. From the perspective of the older maid, the older maid Conscience found out that she couldn't bear to be hurt by Claire and assisted her in escaping.

As long as I believe what you just said to escape from the manor, then I will lose. "

This time, the older maid showed a truly desperate expression: "You, how did you guess so much? The system clearly told us that this rule is hidden from the executor!"

"If the opponent is a manipulator, you probably wouldn't have thought of this." Xing Ye looked down at the manipulator who had completely surrendered, "But this is a game of challenging fate. As a rebel, of course, you must always use the system as your opponent. , to discover the crisis hidden in the rules, isn’t it?”

Hearing these words, the mirror held in the palm of Xing Ye slightly lit up.

The author has something to say:

The translation of Xing Ye's last words is: I have never regarded you weak chickens as opponents!
