Conquering alien worlds starts from the game

The game "Other World" quietly appeared on the Internet on the earth plane. The time when players first entered this alien world with the help of a login helmet was 1031 in the new calendar.

After experiencing two "NPC Winter Festivals" in the "game", now... it is 1033.

In other words, the children's fables in Professor Yin's hands were transferred from "Viscount Carter" to "Young Carl Lawrence", which happened 45 years ago.

This children's book has been printed for more than 45 years. Although the pages have turned yellow and become brittle, the inner pages are still "new". The paper is straight, there is no crease on the spine, and it has not been turned over much.

It may also be...the person who got this book did not have time to read this precious and rare reading to some extent.

Professor Yin turned around slowly, looked at this well-maintained room for the third time, and his expression became more serious...

"Books" are a kind of luxury for the aborigines in this foreign world.

The paper with text that can be found in most civilian homes is either newspapers or cheap magazines printed with colorful advertisements. Books are rare... Even if there are children of school age in the family, the children go to school In workers’ schools in big cities (usually run by factory owners) or private classrooms run by private individuals, the teaching materials used often belong to the schools or classrooms and must be returned after graduation.

The lack of popularization of printed publications is due to the backwardness of the industry and low productivity, as well as the actual need to control the popularity of cult ideas and curb the spread of occultism—it is definitely not a good thing for people with incomplete worldviews and unstable spirits to come into contact with occultism. The national team that actually governs the territory can also agree with this.

The Viscount Carter who donated the book has passed away for more than 20 years. Regarding the evaluation of this Viscount... I can only say that according to the noble moral standards of this world, he can barely be regarded as a person:

Land mergers, plundering, bullying, bullying, disregarding human life, etc. have not been left behind, but they generously donate money to support the neighbors (for example, they once funded the Morgan furniture factory), and arrange housekeepers to present quilts and clothes to the old people in the town every winter celebration Heating materials such as coal, taking in and helping widowed and orphaned children, and setting up private classrooms with low fees... This man also did it when he was alive.

The old newspapers that can be found in the city hall also published the news that when Viscount Carter died of illness, the townspeople of New Cili Town spontaneously paid for the old nobleman's funeral.

The old clothes in the closet are all of the size worn by children under the age of ten, and the owner of this room is likely to stay at the age of wearing these clothes forever, so it can be calculated... Viscount Carter was born 20 years after the death of the young Carl Lawrence. Died of illness; the Lawrences have continued to keep the books that Viscount Carter gave to their deceased child for many years, which can at least prove from the side... This old couple has no hatred for the deceased Viscount Carter.

It seems that neither Viscount Carter nor the Lawrence family have anything to do with the abnormal phenomenon in New Sealy Town... At least Professor Yin Zhengliang did not find any evidence to prove that the three are related.

But... Carl Lawrence, who probably died 4415 years ago, and the old couple who carefully maintained the room of the deceased child for decades... These vague information always make Professor Yin Zhengliang feel that there is something wrong.

"This place is different from the earth... In cases on the earth, if the evidence, conditions, and motives can be found out, the case will be solved. But this place...doesn't pay attention to the conditions of the crime."

Professor Yin subconsciously made a movement of raising his glasses. Because of his absent-mindedness, this habitual movement almost missed the finger bones into the big hole in the nose.

"Well... where the skeletons can run all over the street, the logic of normal earthlings is really unreliable."

Professor Yin shook his bone claw in displeasure, put back the children's fable in his hand, and went downstairs slowly, thinking about the "night watchman mission" cases collected and sorted out by the national team in his mind.

The "Red Wall Farm Case" and "The Disappearance of Kent Bennett" that players have "solved" with their own hands, the national team has carefully collected and sorted out the details... The players who did the missions only took these unbelievable cases Playing it as a game, the national team is too aware of what these cases mean.

In "The Case of the Red Wall Farm", the national team learned how outrageous such a surreal thing as a "sealed object" is... A hand-made statue the size of a palm can actually create a serial murder.

In "The Case of the Disappearing Teenager", the national team was horrified to discover that an ordinary alien with a strong spirit can really become a ridiculously strong evil spirit after death. The "space" can be created.

With these ready-made cases as a basis, the national team can calmly follow behind and preside over the ending when the players behind are rushing to do the night watchman task in Duttata City and Taqiya...

In short, although it breaks through the world view of people on earth...but strong personal emotions (spiritual power) can indeed interfere or even directly affect reality, which is not at all scientific and completely inconsistent with the idealistic reality of the three views of materialism , Although the experts of the national team are very painful, they are also working hard to analyze, understand, and accept...

The abnormal situation in Xinxili Town is very idealistic, and has nothing to do with materialism at all.

"To solve this case, the conditions of the crime should be put aside first, and the focus should be on the motive...and the evidence."

"The living conditions and living supplies of ordinary townspeople are relatively tight. The average townsman's family is not like the Morgan Furniture Factory and the Sheriff's House. Even after many years, they can still find clues about the existence of missing relatives... Let's start with The two families of the victims who can be identified will be investigated to see if they can find a connection point..."

From Carter's house to Lawrence's house, Professor Yin visited more than a dozen townspeople's families, but none of them could tell whether any relatives had disappeared in their homes—several people shared the same room, the father wore the same clothes through his son, and the elder brother wore the same clothes. If my younger brother wears it, Holmes will have to be blinded when he comes.

When he came downstairs and saw the old couple who were so nervous that they almost hugged each other, Professor Yin Zhengliang bowed slightly to express his apology for the disturbance, and beckoned Qi Tian to go out.

Before leaving the door...he looked back at Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence again.

From the outside, the Lawrences are just a pair of very ordinary elderly people. Both of them are of very common thin stature (the civilians in this other world can't find a few fat people), with yellow eyes and few teeth left. The skin on the hands has age spots.

Old people of this age group can see quite a few by walking around in the parks of Huaxia Kingdom... The difference between the two is the characteristics of the facial features and the texture of the clothes - based on the economic conditions of the Lawrence family and the conditions of this world Productivity, what kind of soft, skin-friendly, warm, windproof and non-irritating "high-end" fabrics, this couple must not be able to pursue.

"It's not easy to live such a long life in this alien environment, alas...it's a pity, if nothing happened to the child, now should be the time to enjoy family happiness."

When he walked out of the grocery store, Professor Yin Zhengliang felt an unspeakable emotion quietly rising in his heart.

Professor Yin is actually not young anymore... He was re-employed by the Public Security University after retiring from his post more than ten years ago. His actual age is not much different from this old couple; It was hard for him not to feel pity.

Next... Although knowing that it is difficult to find valuable clues in the homes of ordinary townspeople, Professor Yin diligently ran through thousands of households in the town to avoid missing clues.

Except for experts like Yin Zhengliang who have worked in the front line, ordinary people really can't hold on to this kind of boring, monotonous and repetitive investigation and visit... Anyway, Yang Qiu didn't hold on, and went to other things when he saw half of it.

On the other side of the Carter forest farm, the brothers who tried to use the two fishermen as bait did not hold on. They squatted until ten o'clock (at night on earth time) and did not see the boss, so they slapped their butts and changed places.

And then... You will win if you work hard. This guy still refuses to give up, and drags his friends who want to run away but have no choice but to go back to Xinxili Town...

"Brother Pin, why are you so stubborn? This task is obviously stuck. I bet you that the dog planner did not design the task process well. This task will definitely need to be adjusted in the next online update." Yi Wan Meizi was full of complaints, "Of course, the dogs in the production team will definitely not admit their mistakes, and they will definitely give you a dark tone. If you don't believe me, let's try again after the next announcement. There may be clues for this mission right away." gone."

"Okay, okay, I said that tonight is the last night. If there is no result after we finish our work tonight, let's give up. At least for the last night, we must persevere." Only hard work will win and patiently appease.

Back in town, this group of players ran non-stop... towards the sheriff's house.

In the eyes of the Aubrey family who were on the verge of collapse, "How many times are you going to come?", these guys once again made troubles for the family...

Weisford's young and energetic second son stared at the undead who ran into the kitchen to interfere with his sister-in-law and mother's cooking dinner. He went out to the garage next to him and brought back a crowbar. The elder brother hugged tightly.

"Are you crazy! Don't you know that even the army of the great nobles can't deal with these undead!" The eldest son, who inherited his father's position as a sheriff, snatched the crowbar angrily, "Even if you want to cause trouble, don't stay at home!"

"It's because you are all pampering and letting go, that these damned undead dare to be so arrogant!" The second son, who was dazed, yelled with red eyes, "Don't stop me, Dad, I want to fight these bastards!" Well, they're the ones who made a mess of everything, and I'm not going to take it any longer this time!"

"That's enough, Dean, calm down!" Westford, who was sweating profusely, hugged his second son who was struggling desperately, "The new city hall promised to arrange jobs for those who were not involved in the incident at Carter's house. The arrival of the undead is also allowed by the city hall, so calm down!"

The second son, Dean, not only failed to calm down, but became even more emotional: "Come on, Dad, you still believe those nonsense! Look at how long it has been, has the city hall ever come to control the lives of us people? Even if those guys will really fulfill their promises, what kind of decent jobs will they arrange for us!"

Given the abnormal situation in New Sealy Town, the New City Hall will naturally not be open to the public—this kind of matter that even the night watchmen dare not disclose, the undead consul will definitely not confront the night watchman.

Also because of the strange phenomenon in New Sealy Town, the New City Hall, which is already under manpower, will not rush to arrange important civil servants and clerks before the incident is resolved-every one of these aboriginals who have been cultivated with great difficulty is very happy. Important, not to be consumed.

In the eyes of the townspeople of New Westley Town, especially the housekeepers, deacons, and servants who are facing unemployment crisis after the collapse of the Carter House, this kind of treatment is like the intentional cold reception of the new city hall...

Dean, the second son who has been a deacon in Carter's house for several years, is particularly resentful - he is one of the people who can't accept the collapse of Viscount Carter's house overnight. Mrs. Carter may have problems, but the young master and nephew of the Carter family There are so many, and it’s not that there are no people who can inherit the family business. Why can the new city hall cancel the Carter family’s title and confiscate the Carter family’s property?

Back then, he relied on his father's face and his friendship with the Carter family's neighbors for many years to get the chance to become the deacon of the Carter family. In these years, relying on the status of the deacon of the Carter family has not lost much glory—why should everything about him be so lightly take away? !

Even if the new city hall promises to arrange jobs for them... But can the new city hall compensate him with a good job with the same glamor and status as the "Deacon of the Viscount's Mansion"!

Dean Aubrey was unwilling to accept this reality from the bottom of his heart. At this moment when even dinner was disturbed by undead, the grievances in his heart broke out uncontrollably. At this moment, he only hoped that these damned undead would be with him. The bad realities that had to be faced disappeared together.

It was also during the two-on-one stalemate between Aubrey and his son... The undead, who never cared about the owner's reaction during the "forced visit", stopped their random actions and looked at the father and son strangely.

"Fuck - what is this stepping horse?" Aipin Caiying looked in astonishment at Dean Aubrey, who was being stopped by the gate by his elder brother and old father.

To be precise...it was looking behind this "NPC".

A hazy, weird, vague misty phantom quietly appeared behind Dean Aubrey's head, and...slowly, creepily, towards Dean Aubrey's eyes, Drill into the nose, mouth, and ears.
