Lin Mo didn't expect to have an unexpected gain from this clown fortune-telling machine.
"A fortune-telling machine can actually predict things in the outside world?"
This is a remarkable discovery.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, this can be verified later, but if it is proven that the clown fortune-telling machine can really predict some things in the outside world, then this thing is amazing.
The value is huge.
Lin Mo is very good at seizing opportunities.
Just like now, he put the last coin into the coin slot without hesitation.
Although there will be a game scene No. 12 next, which may also require coins, Lin Mo wants to know more than the game instructions.
The clown raised his head and looked at Lin Mo.
"Let me tell you a joke. There's a lamb caught in a trap. The hound is staring at it, ready to tear its throat out at any time. The hunter is laughing at it, wondering whether to roast or boil it, but the lamb is actually worried about the other lambs. Do you think it's funny? Hahaha, hahahahaha!"
Amidst a burst of shrill strange laughter, the clown slowly lowered his head and fell into silence again.
Lin Mo was stunned.
"What's wrong with you? Can't you just say what you want to say?"
Obviously, the clown's sarcasm just now actually answered the questions in Lin Mo's mind.
This clown fortune-telling machine can obviously see through people's minds and tell you the things you want to know most.
Last time, Lin Mo was thinking about the fake person, so the clown fortune-telling machine gave a result for this matter; just now, Lin Mo was thinking about his brother Lin Yuan, and the clown fortune-telling machine told a joke.
That means, you are already in trouble, and you are still worrying about others? From a side view, your current situation may be even more dangerous.
Although he still didn't know his brother Lin Yuan's current situation, he was at least certain that he was still facing many crises and would be doomed if he wasn't careful.
Fortunately, Lin Mo had completed game scene No. 11 100% of the way there, so he was rewarded with a life.
With an extra life, I naturally feel more confident.
Now I have no coins left, so I can only choose to enter game scene No. 12.
After making this choice, everything around him disappeared and Lin Mo felt like he was standing in darkness.
Slowly, Lin Mo seemed to hear some sounds.
The sounds were blurry and difficult to distinguish at first, but soon became clearer.
It sounded like a police sirens.
It was far away, but I could hear it faintly.
Afterwards, a faint light was seen.
It's like slowly opening your eyelids from a first-person perspective.
Gasping sound.
It should have come from this character himself. He was lying on the ground at first, and then slowly crawled up.
Lin Mo looked at his hands.
I recognized her, it was still Xu Min in a crazy state.
In other words, the next game scene No. 12 is actually related to the previous scene and is a smooth transition.
"Are you awake?"
A voice came.
Lin Mo turned his head and saw a man sitting on the chair over there. He looked a little depressed, with messy hair, stubble all over his face, and a pale complexion.
It may also be because of the lighting, the other person's expression is a little scary.
Light is a standard feature of horror games.
At this time, Lin Mo saw two lines of prompts.
"1. Who are you?"
"2. Have we met before?"
Lin Mo understood that he had to choose what to respond to, and generally speaking, this choice would affect the subsequent plot.
This is also a common tactic used in horror games.
But the problem is that Lin Mo suffers from a fear of making choices.
For example, he usually goes to Chaoshi to buy a certain type of beverage. If there is only one of this type of beverage available, then there is no problem and he can just take it away and pay.
But if there are two or more, then it will be bad.
He will be entangled and hesitant, thinking that this one is good, but also that one is not bad; he will compare brands, look at the ingredient list, and check the capacity.
But the more I compare, the harder it is to make a decision.
Now two similar options popped up, which made it difficult for him.
"Looking at the man's appearance, he seems to know Xu Min. Maybe they are acquaintances. But the problem is that neither of these two choices seems like talking to an acquaintance."
Relatively speaking, the second option is slightly better.
Lin Mo chose the second option.
"Of course we've met. I live downstairs from you. Oh, it seems that it's hard for someone like me to get the attention of ladies." The man made a self-deprecating sound.
"Okay, then let's get to know each other formally. My name is Qin Tian, and I'm a programmer." Qin Tian walked over and wanted to shake hands.
This time the option appears again.
"1. Shake hands."
“2. Ignore it.”
Could this also determine the direction of the plot? Lin Mo thought it was possible.
Because this social reaction seems to be nothing to himself or the role he plays, but it must be very important to Qin Tian.
If you reject someone's kindness, the other person may just be unhappy, but won't say much. However, there is also a possibility that if the other person is a sensitive person, he or she may bear a grudge against you.
Even do some crazy things immediately.
For example, they may lose face on the spot, swear, or even behave aggressively.
Based on this concern, and the fact that Lin Mo was a social elite, he chose option 1 and shook hands with the other party.
Qintian was very happy.
At this time Lin Mo coughed a few times and found that he could speak.
"Why am I here? Where is this place?" Lin Mo asked.
This question is actually very important.
It’s related to whether the other party knows about the massacre that took place in Xu Min’s home before.
"This is my home. I was working just now. I heard a knock on the door and found you collapsed at the door, so I brought you back."
Qin Tian’s answer may not be true.
Lin Mo never forgot that this was a horror game, and a deceptive one at that, with dangers everywhere.
The man in front of me might not be telling the truth.
It is possible that the other person is a perverted murderer, the kind who likes to dismember people, cut them into small pieces and freeze them in the refrigerator, and then eat a little bit every day.
"Why did you faint? What happened?" Qin Tian asked.
As expected, the option answer appeared again.
"1. I don't remember."
"2. This matter has nothing to do with you."
"3. Something happened at home. Can you take me upstairs to have a look?"
This time three options appeared.
Obviously, this option will undoubtedly determine the direction of the subsequent plot, and the difference will be huge.
Option 1 is quite standard; Option 2 is a bit cold and inhumane; As for Option 3, it should be the most exaggerated. How could Lin Mo not know what is going on in Xu Min's family? Let the other party go and see it together. At that time, there will only be three possibilities.
One possibility is that the other party kills me, one is that I kill the other party, and the third possibility is that Qin Tian becomes good friends with me after seeing the four corpses in the house, provided that he is a perverted murderer and I sympathize with him.
The two of them can even exchange their experiences.
Logically speaking, Lin Mo should not choose 3, but choose between 1 and 2.
But at this moment, Lin Mo felt a sense of danger.
He felt something was wrong.
Suddenly, he remembered a hint that the clown fortune-telling machine had given him before, which was the unfunny joke.
A lamb caught in a trap, hounds staring at it, ready to tear its throat at any time; hunters laugh at it, wondering whether to roast or boil it, but it is actually worried about other lambs, do you think it is funny? There is no doubt that in the eyes of the clown fortune-teller, it is a lamb.
There are ferocious hounds and malicious hunters around.
There are just no good people.
So is Qin Tian in front of him a good person? Lin Mo thinks it is unlikely.
Should we go over and kill the other party now? I have a question.
No weapons at hand.
The axe and dagger obtained from game scene No. 11 are gone. The previous game prompts said that these props can be taken away.
And Lin Mo also carried them with him.
But now they are all gone.
All I can say is that it was taken away by Qin Tian in front of me.
Something can be hidden behind the chair where the other person is sitting, perhaps a sharp knife or an axe.
Therefore, turning against each other now would be disadvantageous to oneself.
So Lin Mo chose option 3, which means something happened at home. Can you take me upstairs to take a look?
"sure."
Qin Tian agreed. He stood up and walked over, apparently to help Lin Mo up.
At this moment, Lin Mo grabbed the other person's hand and twisted it hard. At the same time, his body suddenly jumped up from the bed. His feet instantly locked the other person's neck, and then he used his weight to pull the other person to the ground.
Qin Tian immediately struggled.
He was very strong, and Lin Mo was holding on to his arms, legs, and waist tightly, using all his strength.
Slowly, Qin Tian stopped moving.
He might have fainted from strangulation, or he might have died.
Lin Mo did not let go immediately, because who knows if the other party was pretending to be dead.
So I just keep working hard.
Lin Mo didn't let go until he was completely motionless.
This move was the close-combat strangulation technique that Lin Mo learned during training at the General Administration.
What professionals teach are all deadly moves.
I didn't expect it would be used now.
Killing Qin Tian was what Lin Mo suddenly thought of just now, and he did it without any hesitation.
According to Lin Mo's thinking, it would be better to kill someone by mistake than to take any risks.
The main theme of this game is 'there is no good person', including the 'crazy version of Xu Min' played by Lin Mo, who is either a pervert or a lunatic.
The subsequent investigation confirmed Lin Mo's guess.
First, the knife was found in Qin Tian’s pocket.
In addition, there was a crossbow hidden under the stool where the other party was sitting.
The arrow is already mounted.
If necessary, you can pick it up and shoot.
This crossbow has extremely strong penetrating power, and if the distance is close enough, it can even completely penetrate the body.
Just by looking at these things, you can tell that the other party is not a good person.
In the conversation just now, if he hadn't made the right choice, Qin Tian might have already taken action. At that time, he would have been in a passive position and Lin Mo would have been the one to die.
Only by choosing the right one can you get the other person closer.
Qin Tian is dead.
But Lin Mo still tied up the other person's hands and feet with the rope he found.
I'm used to it.
Afraid of resurrection.
Lin Mo put away the knife and held the crossbow.
With this thing in my hand, I feel much more confident.
After leaving this room, Lin Mo found that the layout here was almost the same as Xu Min's previous house, except for the decoration, furniture and furnishings in the house.
Lin Mo found several computers next door, and a body was tied to the chair in front of the computer desk.
The corpse's wrists and ankles were tied tightly to a chair with barbed wire, and the neck was also wrapped with the same wire. It had been dead for some time and it smelled bad.
Maybe the neck was strangled too badly, the corpse's eyes were wide open and almost popping out.
Anyway, the visual impact is quite strong.
Lin Mo saw a leftover fast food box on the computer desk. There was a delivery receipt on the box with the dishes written on it and Qin Tian's name and phone number below.
In addition, there is a work permit on the table.
Lin Mo picked it up and took a look.
Qin Tian’s work ID shows that the other party is indeed a programmer, but looking at the photo, it is the corpse on this chair, not the previous person.
Lin Mo smiled.
What the Joker Ouija said was absolutely right.
There are either hounds or hunters around, and there is no good person.
Fortunately, he took the initiative, otherwise, his fate might be the same as the real Qin Tian, or even worse.
Take a closer look.
The real Qin Tian should be suffering from torture, as the other party seemed to be using this method to force him to answer questions.
So, what was the question? Lin Mo looked at the computer and didn't move it. Who knows what terrible things will happen after turning on the computer.
There aren't many clues in the computer room.
Lin Mo was not in a hurry to explore further. He wanted to make sure there were no other threats in the house first.
He has thought it through.
As long as you see anything moving, just shoot an arrow at it.
This is a survival horror game where it’s either you or me.
After that, no one was seen alive, but there were quite a few dead.
In the living room, Lin Mo found two more bodies.
One of them was an old lady, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap; the other body was a middle-aged man wearing security guard clothes.
What does this mean? It means that the person who was hanged by Lin Mo before was a habitual offender. He had a precedent of bringing people back from outside to torture and kill them.
The dead were all covered with scars, obviously having been tortured for a long time.
In addition to the corpse, Lin Mo also found something.
It is also a separate small room, and it still has a clown fortune-telling machine with a slightly last century style.
Lin Mo estimated that there was such a thing in every house here.
Unfortunately, no coins were found.
Since this was a new game scene, Lin Mo used the same old trick and dragged the other four corpses in the room over and shook them in front of the clown fortune-telling machine.
This time the clown fortune-telling machine did not respond.
Either the scenario is different and the fortune-telling machine no longer has the 'newcomer gift pack' setting; or all four of them have had their fortunes read by the clown fortune-telling machine.
Lin Mo found the props he had collected before.
He redistributed them. The crossbow was a powerful weapon and should be taken; the axe was used to deal with strong enemies, and he also took a dagger.
Weapons are enough.
Lin Mo felt that the previous business card was of little use, so he put it aside.
And those two pills.
Until now, Lin Mo still doesn't know what these two pills are used for.
He also thought about trying it, but the risk was too great.
But you can't throw it away, carry it with you, you never know when it may come in handy.
In addition to these lost and recovered props, Lin Mo also found a diary.
He picked it up and took a look, and the content immediately attracted his attention.
"There is a ghost hiding in this house."
The first sentence makes people feel overwhelmed.
Lin Mo subconsciously looked around.
The room was very quiet. I didn't dare turn on the lights, so I could only see things with the faint light from the window, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Fortunately, Lin Mo had a miniature flashlight. Although it was not very bright, it was better than nothing.
The faint light pulled the shadows of various objects in the room, and each shadow seemed abnormal.
"A ghost? Where?"
Lin Mo muttered.
It's true, based on his experience, this place is indeed eerie and scary, as if there is something hidden in the dark.
Continue reading the contents of the diary.
"I have to find that ghost. Only in this way can I survive."
"Qin Tian might be the ghost, but he refused to admit it. I crushed his finger bones, peeled off his skin with a knife, and tortured him with every means I could think of, but he just refused to admit that he was the ghost."
"Maybe he really isn't."
"There was an old woman outside the door, and I caught her. Who can be sure that the ghost will not turn into the old woman's appearance?"
"The old woman is just like Qin Tian, she won't admit it until she dies. Did I choose the wrong person again?"
"I waited for a security guard and lured him back by pretending to be Qin Tian. I didn't take action right away, but instead used words to test him to see what this seemingly ordinary security guard knew."
"I failed. The security guard was not the ghost I was looking for. I could only kill him."
"There is a woman collapsed at the door. Maybe she is the ghost I am looking for... Hehe, no matter whether it is or not, I really like this game."
