Horror game: opening scare system

Maid outfit...

Well, in fact, Zhang Xun doesn't have too many ideas about what clothes to wear, and the clothes are not ugly.

Looking down at the table, there was a piece of paper on it. He picked it up and looked at it. It seemed to be something similar to a small ticket. The meaning expressed on it was probably that he was bought by the owner of the house to be a servant.

Now his name was Chi Carey, which didn't seem like a boy's name.

Putting down the note, Zhang Xun got up, first checked the furnishings in the house, familiarized himself with the environment, and then quietly checked his body.

As it turned out, he was indeed a boy.

Cloud City is not like a dungeon, it is not possible to leave after staying for a period of time, or after solving the existence of the boss.

Here, it is more like to complete a thing, or to experience a story.

I don't know what happened this time.

However, if it comes, it will be safe, and now let's do the maid work.

Cleaning, shopping, cooking and so on.

The style of the city outside gives Zhang Xun an extremely familiar feeling, but it seems to be a very safe place, there will not be too much danger, and there will be no monsters popping up suddenly.

Zhang Xun had no plans to go out. It was past nine o'clock, and it was still early. He tidied up the house inside and out, and made it the way he liked. It was clean and tidy. At this level of sleep, because I can't bear to destroy the cleanliness that is like a handicraft.

In addition, this house is actually quite big, it is a large manor, Zhang Xun is very diligent, almost all the houses are cleaned by himself, because other people clean it, in his opinion, it is not clean enough, at least, he I feel that the other maids in this place are not serious enough in their work, and there is a feeling that they are half-dead for their wages. In such a situation, how could they clean it up!

Yes, this is not only a large manor, nor is there only one servant, Zhang Xun.

In the house of the manor, including the outside courtyard, there are many paintings or handicrafts. In short, all the decorations highlight an art.

This is completely different from what Zhang Xun saw when he opened his eyes.

However, it's okay, after all, rich people can do whatever they want, and play however they like.

As a servant who was bought, Zhang Xun didn't need to think so much. Of course, he didn't think too much about it himself. Time to relax.

And when Zhang Xun was cleaning, some other servants who were in charge of the house were not happy to see this new little guy robbing the job, but seeing the results of other people's cleaning, I couldn't compare with my pretentiousness... I had to He left resentfully and went to work in the courtyard outside.

Of course, according to their thinking, not working is naturally the easiest, but they can't do it, otherwise they won't get paid.

Although the owner of this place is a well-known good person, he still has to work if he wants to get money, and he must not be a fool, because the old supervisor in black waiter uniform may stare at you at any time.

It is obviously an old bone, but those cloudy old eyes are very annoying.

It's really crazy!

During the cleaning process, Zhang Xun also did some work of collecting information, and had a general understanding of the manor.

For example, this old overseer who was hated by countless servants and scolded behind his back, an old waiter with white hair and beard and wrinkled face, but a kind face and known as a smiling tiger, is the manor of this manor. Butler inside.

The old butler grew up here since he was a child, and has served the family for three generations, so he can be regarded as the elder here.

And even after so many years, the old butler's figure is still tall and straight, his body is still strong, and his eyes are as sharp as a falcon's. You can see clearly.

Especially the old man's height of 1.8 meters made Zhang Xun look like he was kicking his knee.

Yes, Zhang Xun is still a small man, with a familiar height of 1.4 meters three (wearing shoes).

Even, here, his age and gender have changed, at least according to the purchase receipt.

Chi Carey, 12 years old, female.

But what is the real situation, then the benevolent see benevolence, and the wise see wisdom.

After all, during the physical examination, Zhang Xun saw for himself that his body had not changed, and he was still a boy.

Maybe it's because of his looks, or maybe something else.

After all, in the city of clouds, he is still his current self, and the stories in the city of clouds seem to be memories buried deep in his mind a long time ago.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

The name of the old butler is Ah Fu. It is said that when he was young, he had red hair, was full of muscles, and had superb martial arts skills. Even in the furniture city, he was invincible. When he was still punching and kicking, he had already raised his martial arts to a rare level in the world. Usually, if he didn't make a move, he would use big moves.

This is still quite scary, this kind of experience doesn't match Ah Fu's benevolent look at all.

Could it be that the older you get, the better you look?

However, these news were all heard from other servants. We have never seen what happened, and we don't know.

Maybe, these are actually the gossips that these servants deliberately spread behind their backs after they were caught by Ah Fu, just to make them sick, this old man who worked hard for his master and cut off their money.

Don't be credulous, don't be credulous.

In addition to Ah Fu's legendary life, Zhang Xun also got some information related to the owner of the manor.

The owner of this house is called Karl, who is 47 years old this year. Like the current Ah Fu, he is a very kind-looking man, and, judging from the evaluations of the servants, this Karl is a well-known good man. It's the boy who spreads money.

Judging from the works of art in the manor, Karl should be a master of artistic creation, and his works are quite valuable.

It is worth mentioning that although I know from the words of the servants that Karl is a very good person, the evaluation they gave is not very good. Zhang Xun heard more, probably "Big fool, big Resentment, big idiot" and other comments.

It is also a pity that Nia was blocked outside when he was in the city of clouds.

Otherwise, if she heard what these servants said, she might not have to whisper in Zhang Xun's ear.

During this period of time, not only Zhang Xun was collecting information, but the old butler A Fu was also observing the working status of everyone in the champion.

Among them, the one that attracted his attention the most was this little guy who was recently bought by the master, Qi Carey.

Among other things, at least from now on, this little guy really works hard.

Looking at the shiny furniture and the extremely neat arrangement, just taking a look at it will make people feel relaxed and happy, and feel that this is a work of art that should not be destroyed.

Even when I was young, I couldn't do it to this level!

This made him very satisfied with this new little girl, thinking, when the master came back, should he talk to the master about raising the child's salary.

However, compared with other servants, this child's status is somewhat special.

She was bought by the master in that place, and now it is equivalent to belonging to the Karl family. Unlike other hired servants, Qi Carey can undoubtedly be regarded as a family.

Thinking of this, the old housekeeper looked at Zhang Xun with more kindness in his sleepless eyes. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel relieved to see this little guy adapting to his new life so well.

The little guy always had a smile on his face, he seemed very happy...

Lowering his gaze, Ah Fu couldn't help thinking about when he and the master bought the child back from that place.

I remember that it was a gray day, the weather was not very clear, and the thick and thick clouds hung down on the sky like huge lead blocks, coating the whole world with a heavy black.

It was a rare day off, and the master who had nothing to do suddenly said to him:

"Ah Fu, what do you think I bought a child back?"

When he heard the news, Ah Fu was still very surprised. He looked at his master, the child he had raised since he was a child.

The other party's expression is so sincere and sincere. As a person who has watched the other party step by step to the present, Ah Fu knows Karl very well. He knows that his master is not a 3-minute hot person.

Whenever he makes a decision, it means that he has thought it through, he is serious, and wants to buy, or adopt a child.

In this place, buying and selling children is not such a bizarre thing.

What surprised Ah Fu was why, his master would suddenly have such an idea and wanted to adopt a child.

Did something touch him?

Want a baby yet?

Karl is 47 years old this year, but his body is still strong and he can fight very well. Moreover, with his status and financial resources, if he wants to, he can let countless women take the initiative to climb into his bed, wanting a Having a child, even one of your own biological children, is not difficult at all.

Because of this, Ah Fu was puzzled.

Why not adopt one?

As a servant?

However, it seems useless to be a servant. Children can't do as many things as adults, and they have to watch and coax them.

At least for them, this is the case, after all, they don't have any special needs at all...

At first, Ah Fu was pleasantly surprised. He felt that his master had finally figured it out. If he wanted a child, he couldn't say it well, so he could serve the fourth-generation master.

But thinking about it carefully, he became even more puzzled.

So Ah Fu asked:

"Master, why do you insist on buying a child?"

Karl heard what Ah Fu meant, but he didn't care, he smiled and said:

"It's not that you have to have a child, you have to have that child.

I met a little guy two days ago and she left a deep impression on me.

She's not in a great place, and I thought maybe I could help her out and at least give her a more normal life instead of living in the sewer with the rats.

Girls generally love to be clean, don't they?

I hope that the place where she lives can be as clean as her heart. "

Afterwards, Karl did not continue to explain, but told Ah Fu about the scene when he met Qi Kalei.

As an artist, Karl often has to walk around and observe all kinds of people and all kinds of life. Art comes from life. Whether it is higher than life is hard to say. In short, he needs to use this method to collect materials.

He is carrying the drawing board, holding the drawing board, and with flowery arms. He is obviously half an old man, but he walks with ease on the side of the street. When he has inspiration, he sits on the corner of the street and daubs a few strokes on the drawing board seemingly casually. , while a few existing inspirations, while making a little expansion, when the time comes, you can grasp the weak fireflies, fill in carefully, and slowly complete your own work.

Near some slums, if Karl sensed it, he stopped and began to paint on the drawing board.

At this moment, he felt someone poking his waist, and then, a pleasant, half-sweet oriole singing, and a refreshing voice like the light ringing of wind chimes came.

"Uncle, you lost your wallet!"

Carl, who heard the voice, turned around and saw a little beggar-like guy looking at him timidly, holding his black leather wallet in his hand.

What caught his attention the most was that child, completely opposite to his embarrassing appearance, a pair of gray eyes that were as clear as a lake, as if reflecting the sky.

The sight in those eyes was so clean, it attracted him deeply.

He took his wallet, opened it, and looked at it. There was nothing missing. You know, the money he carried with him was not small, but this little guy who seemed to be in trouble didn't do anything. It was returned intact.

This surprised Carl.

Regardless of adults or children, in the city, country, or even the planet he lives in, there are very few such children. It is the consistent style to see and find them. As for what the owner thinks, what do they care about?If you want to blame, blame the owner himself for being unlucky. Who told him to lose his wallet for no reason?

This is the view held by 90.00% of the people in this place, but now, it is very different, and the little guy in front of him is very different.

She is here, shining like a night pearl, so dazzling and precious in this dusty society, like a rare treasure.

Feeling the child's sincere smile, Carl's heart was touched.

Of course he knows what other people think of him, but to be honest, he doesn't care, otherwise, he wouldn't have been doing such a thing for a long time.

He believes that a good heart and a clean heart are priceless, and that is the most valuable embodiment of being a human being.

Now, the little guy in front of him has such a clean and flawless heart. He was deeply attracted, and couldn't help showing a smile.

Carl asked: "Little guy, you just gave it back to me? Why don't you accept it yourself?"

"Why do you want to accept it yourself? Isn't that your uncle's thing?"

The little guy opened his eyes wide and said something that is definitely not something that normal people in this city, this country, or this planet can say.

"Uncle, you should be very anxious when you realize that your things are missing.

If I accept him, wouldn't you be able to find your things again, uncle, won't you be sad if you can't find it? "

But it happened that such a sentence, words that normal people would not say, may be considered here as words that only fools would say, and it messed with Carl's nerves.

"Yeah, I'm going to be sad."

Carl smiled and said:

"But since you sent it back, I won't be sad."

Looking at the little guy in front of him, Karl raised his hand out of nowhere and rubbed the other's head. It seemed that the kid had no intention of resisting.

"Where do you live, can you tell me?"

Blake asked.

"I live in Mama Baker's Kindergarten."

Hearing this, Carl's face darkened.

Baker's mother's kindergarten is not a good place, but in this area, and even in the whole city, Baker's mother's kindergarten is very famous.

It was a place located in a slum, not specifically created for children's welfare activities, but a place similar to a chicken farm or a pig farm.

The homeless children will be taken to Baker's mother's kindergarten to be raised for the children inside to make money, and it is completely unknown how long those children who are kept in captivity can live.

There, these children will be trained to use tricks such as cheating and abducting to ask for money from the outside world, and after getting the money, give it to Baker's mother. As a reward, Baker's mother will provide hard food and water with a strange smell. and a humble dwelling.

The above are judged to be valuable children.

Children who are worthless will be killed.

Some of them will be directly slaughtered as extra meals. After all, in this place, it is a great thing to be able to eat a meal of meat. Or, they will sell these children to other people's homes for others. To eat, to enslave.

In short, the end is very bad.

Thinking of this, Carl suddenly had an idea, should he buy this child?

At this moment, a voice came from a distance, but it was not good to have a hard tone.

"Ki Carey, what are you doing! Come here!"

Hearing this voice, the child in front of her eyes trembled visibly, and then she said to herself:

"Sorry, uncle, I can't talk to you anymore, someone calls me again."

After finishing speaking, the little guy turned and left.

Looking at the back of the little guy going all the way, I saw her walking into the depths of the alley following a hiding figure.

Karl knew that when these children were working, there were supervisors.

Once the supervisor finds out that these children are not working seriously, or have a tendency to run away and seek help, then what awaits these children may be a bruised lesson.

Thinking of this, Carl suddenly became firm, wanting to buy this child.

But it is definitely not possible now.

Baker's mother is a guy who looks after other people's dishes. If it goes like this, the money in her wallet will not be enough at all, and it's hard to say whether the money in her hand will still be in her own hand by then.

So, Karl ended his search for inspiration, and quickly felt that he was going home. A few days later, that is, now, after arriving home, he immediately told his old housekeeper Afu about this matter.

After hearing what his master said, Ah Fu didn't say anything more, but just dealt with the matter.

He is very clear that his master has made up his mind, and he has no objection to the master's decision now, as long as he abides by it.

He has handled many things for Carl, and now, he is familiar with handling these procedures.

A few days later, the two of them, master and servant, came to Mother Baker's kindergarten and were warmly received by Mother Baker.

In any case, apart from Carl's status as an artist, his family is extremely important here, and Mother Baker dare not neglect her in the slightest.

"Oh! Master Karl is here. I am sorry to welcome you, and I hope you will forgive me!"

Ah Fu looked at it calmly. The fat man with a fat face and small eyes in front of him was the mother Baker. The way he spoke while pinching his throat made people's ears a little tormented.

At the same time, his eyes swept over the two big men in suits standing beside Baker's mother.

Both of them are capable, and they are currently working as bodyguards for Baker's mother.

Just based on his eyes, Ah Fu made a little comparison, and the gap between himself and these two people is sure to be within [-] strokes, and he can solve these two guys.

"You don't need to do so much superficial work. I came here today because I fell in love with a child from your place. I came here just to buy her."

Carl cut to the chase.

"That's really a villain's honor!"

Baker's mother held her throat and made a coy gesture. He came to Karl's side and said:

"I don't know Mr. Karl, which child is it? It doesn't matter if you don't know the name. You can come in and look for it. I promise, I will give you the most affordable price."

After saying this, Mother Baker wanted to get closer, but was stopped by a big hand.

Ah Fu stretched out an arm, blocked Baker's mother, and said at the same time:

"Don't come any closer."

Baker's mother looked up and saw Ah Fu's murderous eyes, the fat on her body trembled, and she retreated resentfully.

"Don't be so fierce, really..."

"I also hope that you can give me a fair price."

Carl said, his tone could not be tasted salty.

"Of course, Master Carl, you can keep your heart in your stomach. If I cheat anyone, I dare not cheat you, right?"

"You better be like this."

Carl glanced at Mother Baker and said:

"Ki Carey."
