Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

The doctor was silent for a moment, and answered the game's words: "... Let's go."

Ding--

The crisp sound of the dice landing rang in the ears of every player.

[Inspiration check failed]

【You think this is just an ordinary temple, there is nothing special about it】

The detective complained: "As long as you are not blind, you will know that there is something wrong with the temple?"

There are only a few places where horror movies take place, hospitals, schools, apartments and temples.

What's more, every special scene that appears in the game dungeon is useful, and it is impossible to set a useless place inexplicably.

The doctor said: "There is no way. According to the rules, this is the case. If you fail the inspiration test, you will not be able to find any important clues."

The detective said: "This stupid game has always been unreliable, let's go to the temple to see."

Doctor: "But our main line is not to go to the temple, and we failed the inspiration test, and we can't get any clues. Let's go to the place to report first."

She seemed to regard this game as a real-life running group, thinking that it was the same as running a group game, death would only tear up the character card, and would not harm herself.

But the other players thought about it again, and the doctor was right.

There are probably some ghosts hidden in the temple. Their task is not to provoke ghosts, but to do the main story according to their identities.

The photographer thought for a moment, picked up the camera in the bag, and took a picture of the temple.

At this second, the temple was frozen on the camera screen.

Looking from the screen, the surroundings of the temple sank suddenly, and the red wall outside seemed to be splashed with a layer of blood, which was too thick to melt.

"It looks pretty creepy." The photographer put away the camera.

At this time, the old man who drove them over wandered over and saw a group of them staring at the temple in the distance, and introduced cheerfully: "This is the girl's temple in our village. It's amazing, but it's too late today." It's late, tomorrow you can go to burn incense sticks, and you will be welcome."

He turned around and pointed again: "This is the hotel, if you have anything to do, you should do it during the day."

After the last word fell, the sky suddenly became gloomy, with dark clouds covering the top, and a few flashes of lightning occasionally flashed.

The doctor shrank his head in fear.

The old man fanned the cattail fan: "It's going to rain, hurry home and collect your clothes—"

Pulling on his slippers, he disappeared into the alley.

In the alley are old-fashioned buildings, densely piled up there, with square windows inlaid on the pale walls, like pairs of black eyes, watching the outsiders.

Doctor: "Do you listen to what Grandpa says?"

The old man's words revealed a message.

You must go to the Girl Temple, and it is best not to go out at night.

Shen Dongqing lazily leaned on Zhou Wenyan's shoulder, listening to the three players talking.

Detective: "Let's listen to the uncle first, and act tomorrow."

As soon as the players decided to go to the hotel first, the rain began to crackle. Fortunately, it was not heavy, and they didn't pay attention to it. They all ran wildly in the rain.

pat-

The eaves are filled with a certain amount of rainwater, and the water drops drop by drop.

Shen Dongqing stretched out his hand to catch it, and two drops of water landed on his palm.The rainwater didn't look clear, and when you got close, you could still smell a vague fishy smell.

Zhou Wenyan took off his coat: "Come here."

Shen Dongqing shook off the water droplets from his hands, and leaned over, a coat fell from the sky, covering him tightly.He pulled it, revealing a pair of black and white eyes.

Zhou Wenyan dragged the suitcase with one hand and carried the person with the other, and walked into the rain curtain.

Shen Dongqing broke free from Zhou Wenyan's hand, propped up her coat, and distributed part of it to the people next to her.

The coats were not big, barely covering the heads of the two of them, so they couldn't take care of other places, and they were almost wet from the shoulders.

Zhou Wenyan was a little helpless.

Originally, he thought that at most one person would get wet, but he didn't expect that now both of them would get wet.

Shen Dongqing turned her head to the side, and smiled playfully: "If you want to get wet, let's get wet together."

Fortunately, they arrived at their destination before they were drowned.

Unexpectedly, there is a hotel in this remote ancient town.

As soon as he walked in, Shen Dongqing saw a sign poked on the wall - mobile 2G coverage, surfing the Internet is really fast!

An old lady sitting at the front desk poked her head out: "It's not the peak tourist season recently, and the rooms are all empty, 51 days, you can stay whatever you want."

Detective: "...Travel?"

The old aunt did not speak, but squinted at him.

The detective was stunned for a moment, then understood, took out some cash and handed it over.

"Stay for seven days first."

The old aunt's attitude immediately became kind, and even the wrinkles on her face stretched out. She collected the money on the counter at a speed that did not meet her age, and then said, "Oh, you young people just like it so much. Do they come from the wilderness? During the peak season, they come in batches, so my hotel can only be opened in this wretched place."

Zhou Wenyan suddenly said, "How many days have they lived?"

The old lady squinted her eyes: "It's only been a few days, and it's impossible to play for too long if you come out to play. There is nothing interesting in this small place. You can stay for four or five days at most before leaving."

The detective asked, "Auntie, how long has your hotel been open? Are there any other hotels here?"

The old aunt yawned: "I'm getting old, I can't remember clearly. With this small place, I can't make any money with another hotel!"

That is to say, there is only such a hotel in the ancient town, and people from outside will choose to live here.

The detective quickly took out a thick notebook and turned to a page: "Auntie, do you remember that a girl named 'Su Xiaoying' lived here 18 years ago?"

"18 years!" The old lady raised her voice, "Who remembers this!"

The detective quickly took out a red ticket and stuffed it into the old aunt's hand, flattering him: "Think about it, think about it?"

The old lady quickly put away the banknotes, and grinned: "I don't remember, but everyone who moves in has a registration. 18 years ago... it should be in the utility room. If you want to find it, you can find it." Find it yourself."

The detective got a clue, and immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, aunt."

Among this group of people, only the detective has a goal. One of the doctors and the photographer came to work and the other just happened to travel here. Neither has a clear purpose.

The two girls discussed it and decided to help the detective find the register book from 18 years ago.

The three of them clattered upstairs.

Shen Dongqing was too lazy to move, sitting on the small wooden bench in the hall on the first floor, watching the rain outside.

Zhou Wenyan walked over and asked, "Do you know where Ah Ying lives?"

The token of this copy of the game is a letter, and the person who wrote the letter is "Sakura".

Ah Ying said that she and her grandma lived in the original place and did not move, but Zhou Wenyan had no memory, so naturally he didn't know where it was.

When the old aunt heard the word "Aying", an imperceptible panic flashed in her eyes. She turned her head and said impatiently, "I don't know you!"

【Do you need a psychology course? 】The voice of the game sounded intimately,【You can tell if she is lying】

Zhou Wenyan ignored the game, picked up the suitcase, and went to call Shen Dongqing.

Shen Dongqing was drenched in the rain, her whole body was listless, she didn't want to move, she just raised her head and looked at Zhou Wenyan.

Zhou Wenyan touched his forehead: "Change the wet clothes, be good, or you'll catch a cold."

After coaxing for a while, Shen Dongqing stood up slowly, and followed him upstairs.

I don't know how long this hotel has been open. The wooden stairs going upstairs creaked and the dust fell down, making people suspect that they would break from it in the next second.

The game does not give up: [Do you really not want to conduct a psychology test? 】

Zhou Wenyan raised his eyelids: "Is there still a test?"

Don't you know what this old lady is hiding at a glance?

game:……

But the setting is like this, why can't you cooperate with the same? !

Zhou Wenyan was too lazy to deal with the game, so he came to the second floor with his suitcase.

There are five rooms on the second floor. A small door is half closed in the stairwell leading to the third floor, and there is a faint light inside. It should be the utility room that the old aunt said.

As the two passed by, there was a sudden scream from inside, which sounded like it belonged to the photographer.

Then the doctor's voice sounded, very urgently: "I want to perform a strength check!"

Ding--

The non-existent dice fall.

[Strength check failed]

The doctor broke down: "Go away, go away!"

There seems to be something horrible hidden in the utility room, and there are chickens and dogs jumping inside.

Shen Dongqing wanted to go in and have a look, but Zhou Wenyan stopped her.

"Change your clothes first." Zhou Wenyan said lightly, "Don't worry."

Shen Dongqing looked down, most of her body was drenched, and now she would drip water after being squeezed, which was very uncomfortable.He looked up and saw that the three players had already crawled out of the utility room.

The detective couldn't even speak: "There's..."

The photographer continued: "There is a ghost!"

The word "ghost" was spoken loudly, and this voice caused a bolt of lightning to strike outside the window.

The doctor looked a little dazed.

She is a newcomer, even if she brings this game field into the PRG she has played before, she still cannot weaken the shock of seeing ghosts with her own eyes.

[The three of you are frightened and need to pass a sanity check.Success sanity minus 1, failure sanity minus 1d6]

The detective calmed down a bit: "We are old players, we won't be afraid!"

It seemed that he wasn't the one who was so frightened that he rolled and crawled just now.

Game: [Detective's sanity minus 2, doctor's sanity minus 4, photographer's sanity minus 1]

The three people whose names were reported were in a daze, as if something was taken away at this moment.

Shen Dongqing was curious: "What's the use of reason?"

The doctor's luck was not very good, his sanity decreased the most, his complexion was pale, but he still answered Shen Dongqing's question: "According to the settings, the debuff will be triggered when it is reduced to a certain level, and it will enter a state of madness when it is reduced to the end."

Shen Dongqing thought this mode was quite fun, and wanted to communicate with the doctor again, but was forcefully pulled back by Zhou Wenyan.

Nothing else was as important as changing out of the wet clothes.

Shen Dongqing had no choice but to be obedient.

The facilities of the hotel are old, the room size is small, and the bathroom is only for one person.

Zhou Wenyan packed his luggage outside and asked Shen Dongqing to take a shower first.

Shen Dongqing took off her wet coat and T-shirt, and walked in barefoot.

I don't know how long this room has been unoccupied, and the toilet is filled with a weird smell.

Shen Dongqing rubbed her nose and opened the window to let in air, but after waiting for a while, not only did the smell not dissipate, but it became stronger and stronger.

He simply ignored the smell and turned on the tap to test the water temperature.

There is no hot water, only half-hot lukewarm water.

Shen Dongqing went up to wash her hair first.

Warm water splashed down.

Shen Dongqing lowered his head, and after wetting his hair, he reached out and took the shampoo, applied it to his hair and scratched it twice. As he scratched, he suddenly felt a little itchy on his neck.

It was as if something had brushed lightly from the back of the neck.

【Pass an inspiration test】

Shen Dongqing was very cooperative: "Pass."

[You noticed something, stopped washing your hair, and slowly raised your head]

Shen Dongqing simply raised her head, and found a mass of black hair hanging from the gap in the ceiling. Looking at the position, it fell just above the back of his neck.

【Whether to enter the battle round】

With shampoo bubbles on her head, Shen Dongqing looked at the black hair curiously: "What does the battle wheel mean? Do I want to fight it?"

Not only was he not afraid, but he was even a little ready to move, reaching out and tugging at the black hair.

Shen Dongqing saw that this thing was still losing its hair, and when it was grasped like this, it was covered with strands of hair.

This move may have angered the mass, and the black hair was parted, revealing a pale woman's face.She has no body, just clumps of black hair wriggling on the ceiling.

Game: [You have missed the best escape time, enter the battle round]

Shen Dongqing blinked in confusion: "What exactly do you mean?"

If the doctor was here, he would know what "battle wheels" meant.

The battle round is equal to a turn-based game. According to the level of agility, each side attacks once. The attack result is determined by the number of dice. The smaller the number, the more successful it is.

Before Shen Dongqing got an answer, the black hair moved first. She squirmed, and the black hair swayed like seaweed. It gently wrapped around Shen Dongqing's neck, and with another force, it suddenly tightened, tightened——

well?Can't you tighten it up?

Shen Dongqing stopped the black hair in the middle and grabbed it in her hands, trying to pull the hairless female ghost off the ceiling.

Ding--

The game throws the dice.

[Battle failed, you did not cause any harm to 'her']

After the words fell, the black hair finally couldn't resist, and fell to the ground with a thud. She seemed to know that the person in front of her was not easy to mess with, so she wriggled and wanted to escape into the sewer.

Shen Dongqing stepped on it, then reached out and turned on the faucet, preparing to wash off the foam on her head first.

The hair ghost submerged in foam: ...

After Shen Dongqing washed her hair, she looked down and saw that the ghost's hair was full of foam, so she kindly picked her up and helped her wash it clean.

Not to mention, in addition to hair loss, Fagui's hair can also be thick.

After Shen Dongqing cleaned up the ghost, he hung it on the hook next to it: "It's a bad behavior to spy on others taking a bath. Don't do it again next time."

Fagui was at a loss.

It might be a ghost from a small place. I have never seen such a strange guest. The whole ghost was so confused that I forgot to attack.

The game was silent for a moment, and could only announce: [Battle round ends, draw]

Shen Dongqing took a shower and had a conversation with the game: "That is to say, if I'm unlucky and can't throw good points, I can't hurt others, don't you dare?"

Game: [Correct]

No matter how high a character's strength is, if the dice roll fails, it cannot make an effective attack.

This can be regarded as the game specially designed to limit players like Shen Dongqing.But it's gratifying, so far there is no third player like this, otherwise the game will be declared bankrupt if it is played like this.

After speaking, the game paid attention to Shen Dongqing's emotions.

Will you be angry?

Every time, You You was so angry that he vomited blood and jumped his feet. The thought of getting angry with Shen Dongqing made You You's mood fluctuate rarely.

Shen Dongqing: "It's pretty good."

game:? ? ?

Shen Dongqing hummed and said with a smile: "You can play for a while longer."

Otherwise, those ghosts are too fragile to be played with.

For some reason, the ghosts lurking in the ancient town trembled silently.

After a while, the rain outside had stopped.

When Shen Dongqing came out of the shower, she had long forgotten what she wanted to do just now, and lay barefoot in front of the window to watch.The stars here are much brighter than those in the city, especially after being washed by rain, the night sky is extraordinarily clear.

Zhou Wenyan also finished taking a shower, and walked behind him: "In a good mood?"

The hotel here doesn't have a hair dryer, and the water droplets from the tip of Zhou Wenyan's hair dripped down, just landing on the back of Shen Dongqing's neck, and slid down along the arc, making him shrink back.

Shen Dongqing: "Yes."

He recounted the conversation with the game, especially the point about rolling the dice no matter what you do.

Zhou Wenyan let out a "huh" and said, "It's quite interesting."

If the game knows that it is serious about learning other game methods, and the game mode that it has worked hard to figure out is only rated as "interesting", I am afraid that the blood will come out.

Zhou Wenyan took a towel, wiped Shen Dongqing's hair, and said casually: "It's just a game of luck."

Shen Dongqing recalled the casino before, and said with a smile: "I'm lucky."

Zhou Wenyan: "But...it's not a bad thing for new players."

Shen Dongqing was puzzled: "Huh?"

"You shouldn't rely too much on games, after all..."

Zhou Wenyan didn't say much, but they knew well that the game is not friendly to the players, if the players trust the game too much, hehe...

He took off the towel, lowered his head and kissed Shen Dongqing's cheek: "But this has nothing to do with us, it's time to sleep."

Probably the first night, except for the ghost in the toilet, the game did not arrange any other special scenes, and passed the night smoothly.

Early the next morning, the players gathered in the lobby on the first floor for breakfast.

It's the off-season now, and there are only a few guests in the entire hotel.

Compared with Shen Dongqing and Zhou Wenyan, who had a good night's sleep, the other three did not get enough sleep and yawned non-stop.

The photographer girl said: "I listened to the meowing of cats all night, and wanted to go out to have a look, but the stupid game kept throwing dice for me, and I couldn't succeed, so I just closed my eyes and lay dead."

Doctor: "Me too."

The detective yawned: "I'll go to the grocery room today, there should be nothing wrong during the day."

The doctor was obviously a little scared: "...Are you still going?"

Shen Dongqing finished drinking the soy milk and put down the bowl: "I'll go with you."

Many people are powerful.

Now that the detective had the bottom line in his mind, he arrived at the door of the grocery room with arrogance, but he withered before he entered the door.

"How about... we go in together?"

Shen Dongqing stepped forward and pushed the door, but the small door was locked.

It may be that the aunt thought they had found the files from 18 years ago, so she locked the door.

The detective raised his hand: "I have lockpicking skills."

The doctor said at the right time: "If you have the lockpicking skill, you may not be able to open it. You have to roll the dice and be lucky."

The detective applied a lucky dice.

The game said coldly: [Failed to unlock]

The detective couldn't believe it: "Can this also fail?"

click-

Although the dice roll failed, the door opened slowly.

The players were full of doubts:?

Shen Dongqing withdrew her hand: "It seems that I am very lucky."

Both the player and the game fell silent.

God damn lucky!

There was an obvious dent on the small door, and it couldn't be closed. It seemed to be scrapped.

The detective hesitated and said, "Why can you open the door without rolling the dice?"

Shen Dongqing said with some pride: "Because I also have lockpicking skills." He is also the one who harmed all kinds of doors!Various doors such as wooden doors, anti-theft doors, and iron doors have been opened in various playgrounds.

The game smoothed things over for itself: [...because this is not unlocking]

This is breaking the door, not to mention destroying the door. It would be strange to use the lockpicking skill!

The doctor murmured: "His strength must be very high."

Shen Dongqing walked in.

Zhou Wenyan, who was one step behind, said abruptly: "This is not a real game."

So it is impossible to follow the rules of the game completely.

After all, this copy of the game is real, and so are the people. Death is not the so-called ripping off character cards, but a real long sleep.

The detective and photographer shuddered, as if they understood something.

There are countless sundries piled up in a small room, and it is packed to the brim. When this group of players walks in, they don't even have room to turn around.

So the two girls, the doctor and the camera, were outside, and the other three went in.

Shen Dongqing reached out and waved away the dust floating in front of her, and looked at the shelf, on which was a thick stack of registers.He blew off the dust on it, opened it and saw that it was not from 18 years ago.

The detective squatted down: "It should be at the bottom. We looked at the top yesterday, but it wasn't there. It's just that when I saw half of it, something ran out..."

Game: [You heard the rustling sound coming from the depths of the grocery room, the players present have to pass an inspiration check]

[Detective inspiration test failed]

[Zhou Wenyan failed the inspiration check]

[Shen Dongqing's inspiration test... a big success! 】

The tone of the game is weird: [You see faces protruding from the ceiling, they are howling, grinning and staring at you with hatred, they are calling for you, wanting you to be a part of them]

【You feel the fear deep in your heart and want to escape from here, but...】

Before the game's lines were memorized, Shen Dongqing raised her hand and greeted the face on the ceiling: "Hi——"

The game couldn't take it anymore: [... Can you cooperate? 】

Shen Dongqing shrugged: "But I'm not afraid at all, I'm not very good at it."

game:……

After a while, Shen Dongqing came to her senses.

This game is working so hard to create a better game mode, he should not cooperate, this will dampen the enthusiasm of the game.

So Shen Dongqing thought for a moment, and exaggeratedly said: "Ah, I'm so scared!"

The author has something to say: 1d6 means 1-6, throwing a six-sided dice
