Chapter 36: I'm Really Not the Final Boss of the Horror Game
Bai You: "I know a woman who grew up in a village. She was very beautiful and kind. One day, some outsiders came to the village. They were in a sorry state, and the woman took pity on them and took them back to her home. But what the woman didn't know was that they were a group of fugitives and members of the dark web."
Each of them had several lives on their hands. They saw a beautiful woman and were overcome with lust, defiling her. But that wasn't the end of it; they posted videos of their acts of defilement on the dark web, foreshadowing their upcoming massacres of women.
Bai You stopped there.
She looked at Li Mingming, seemingly hinting at something while also chatting casually, "Sometimes you can't be too careful."
Li Mingming frowned.
The story told by this NPC almost perfectly overlaps with the background of the BOSS she created!
Li Mingming felt that Bai You wouldn't tell this story for no reason, so she immediately pressed for an answer: "Is that woman your good friend?"
Bai You didn't answer Li Mingming's question, but just looked ahead and smiled, "We've arrived at the amusement park."
After saying this, she picked up one of the little dolls and walked deeper into the amusement park.
Li Mingming carefully examined the amusement park.
It's a large and luxurious place, but it's completely empty.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and a piece of paper landed in front of Li Mingming.
Li Mingming reached out and took the paper.
The words on it made her eyes widen instantly, and she resolutely followed Bai You into the amusement park!
Seeing this, Wang Rou and Lao Yang hurriedly followed in Li Mingming's footsteps.
Seeing this, Xu Wen's face turned ugly, but he had no choice but to follow the crowd into the amusement park.
Li Mingming quickly caught up with Bai You, held the paper up to Bai You's eyes, and said with certainty, word by word, "The monsters that were slaughtered here are absolutely related to you!"
Bai You lowered her eyes to look at the words on the paper.
The above content is: "Because she participated in the abuse, she was trapped here. She will say to everyone who approaches her, 'I want to take my child to the amusement park to ride the carousel.'"
Bai You burst out laughing.
She snatched the paper from Li Mingming's hand and tore it to shreds under Li Mingming's angry gaze.
Bai You tilted her head slightly, looking at Li Mingming, who was furious. "This is a ghost realm, so naturally, all sorts of ghost stories will happen here. Little girl, you should look at things with your heart, not just with your eyes."
As she spoke, Bai You glanced at Lao Yang and the others who hadn't arrived yet, then immediately leaned down and whispered in Li Mingming's ear, "Sometimes the cunning isn't cunning, and the good aren't necessarily good."
After saying this, Bai You acted as if nothing had happened and picked up the little doll in her hands and put it on the carousel.
As the cheerful children's song began, the two little children who had boarded the carousel clapped their hands excitedly and hummed along to the music as if they were learning to speak.
Seeing Li Mingming looking at Bai You with an unclear expression, Wang Rou asked with some concern, "What did she just say to you?"
Li Mingming looked at Wang Rou, pursed her lips, and said with a mixture of doubt and speculation, "I suddenly realized that what we encountered last night was not an ordinary monster. Why are we all safe and sound?"
Wang Rou didn't think too much about it, and even felt that Li Mingming was being a bit suspicious. She said, "Strange things are unpredictable, and fierce ones are even more unpredictable! Wasn't it the same situation as yesterday when she appeared last time? Don't overthink it! Let's quickly see if there are any props here!"
After saying this, Wang Rou walked away.
Li Mingming frowned, becoming increasingly thoughtful.
It wasn't until Lao Yang suddenly shouted, "Friends, there are lots of talismans in this box!" that Li Mingming came to her senses and hurriedly walked towards Lao Yang.
Xu Wen followed closely behind, and his eyes darkened when he saw so many talismans in an ordinary, broken box in the amusement park.
In fact, he had no idea that the amusement park existed. He deliberately stopped them just so that Li Mingming and the others wouldn't get any clues or find the props.
Once they've gathered the clues, it means they're one step closer to completing the challenge.
How could he possibly torture and kill like that!
However, Xu Wen was not worried.
He glanced at the items in the box; they were all basic talismans, not very useful and wouldn't affect his plans for tonight.
Xu Wen walked over to Lao Yang, put a hand on Lao Yang's shoulder, and laughed, "See, I told you, these props are useless. Let's go to the place I found last night!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mingming glanced at Xu Wen.
She trusted Xu Wen completely.
Xu Wen was very quick-witted. Since the team was formed, he had led them to evade the monsters' deadly attacks time and time again!
Although Xu Wen sometimes acts alone, he always brings resources to the team when he rejoins them.
Li Mingming walked towards Xu Wen and said softly, "I think the NPCs brought us here for more than just these basic items. There must be some clues here."
Xu Wen looked at Li Mingming, who was already getting impatient, but still remained calm and said, "Alright! Since that's what you think, let's look around here. Anyway, it's still early before dark."
Li Mingming was very happy, "Okay, thank you, Brother Xu!"
After saying this, Li Mingming walked deeper into the amusement park.
Her figure entered Bai You's peripheral vision. Bai You looked in the direction Li Mingming had gone and soon followed.
Li Mingming was engrossed in searching in the computer room when the sudden sound of footsteps at the door startled her. She immediately took out her homemade bow and arrow from her backpack and aimed it at the sound!
Seeing Bai You standing innocently at the entrance of the server room, Li Mingming breathed a sigh of relief.
She patted her chest. "Sis, how come you appear and disappear so mysteriously?"
Bai You casually made up an excuse, saying, "The carousel's electrical system seems to be malfunctioning, so I came to the server room to take a look."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingming's eyes lit up!
All of the NPCs' behavior logic is designed to provide clues for the player.
It seems there must be clues in the server room!
Li Mingming walked up to Bai You and tentatively asked, "Sister, has the carousel ever malfunctioned like this before?"
Baiyou pretended not to understand and continued to mutter, "I need to fix this problem quickly, otherwise the babies won't have anything to play with and they'll start making a fuss again."
After saying this, Bai You walked straight into the depths of the server room.
Li Mingming kept a close eye on every place Bai You went, not missing any trace of her actions.
Until, Baiyou opened what looked like a safe.
She took out something that looked like a remote control from the safe and said with a smile, "It turns out the battery in the main power switch button was dead. I'm going to fix it."
After saying this, she turned to look at Li Mingming, who had followed her, and said as if assigning her a task, "Help me find the battery."
However, Li Mingming ignored Bai You's words, her gaze was deeply attracted to the contents of the safe!
