Hyperreal board game

If a month ago, someone had told An Ge: You would be kicked until your internal organs ruptured and you would be half dead, and at the same time, someone would kill and set you on fire in order to avenge you.

He must have thought it was a complete joke.

Now he was in the middle of the joke, his hair curled by the flames.

Half of the living room was surrounded by flames, beeping and igniting all combustibles.The wallpaper, wooden furniture, fabrics, even the wooden floors were carbonized and blackened, pitted and pitted with burns.

Although the flames were swift and violent, they stopped abruptly one step away from the coffee table, as if a line had been drawn, and the fire-burned faults on the floor were neat.So apart from being smoked by the heat wave, An Ge was not accidentally injured at all.

Although An Ge had a dull pain in his internal organs, his throat was wet, and he vomited blood as soon as he opened his mouth, it still didn't prevent him from admiring——Yue Zimo Li's ability to control the flame has been further strengthened.

Not only is it more powerful than before, even when it is angry, it can be controlled precisely and retracted freely, as if it is more arbitrary than manipulating one's own fingers.

The puppet emerged from the flames, its blue eyes were cold.The small sea of ​​flames behind him was burning fiercely, and the red and white core of the flame blocked his vision. An Ge couldn't see the traces of the two humans, but...you don't need to think about it, it is definitely impossible to survive.

An Ge felt very uncomfortable.

Not just because of the discomfort of physical injuries, but also psychologically.

Although they have dealt with many NPCs before this, under the background of such a modern civilization, the lives and deaths of ordinary people still make people unable to distinguish between games and reality.

The puppet cat lowered its head and pressed against Jin Gradient's neck desperately. An Ge also understood his intention, resisted the throbbing pain in his internal organs to cooperate with him, and bit the puppet's neck instead, relying on that strength to support himself, Walked out staggeringly.

The puppet hissed and said, "If you dare to bite me, it's a good deal for you. I don't know your level of knowledge today... you won't die, right? Don't you have some kind of body protection?"

An Ge hummed twice to express that he would not die, and hurriedly left the room before someone arrived, and hid in the bushes on the opposite side of the road.

Flames rushed out from the door, and the clear boundaries disappeared after the cat left, and the flames directly engulfed the entire room.

The fire engine rushed over with its siren blaring, and the crowd upstairs fled and scattered, chaotic like the end of the world.

No one noticed that there were two cats in the bushes.

Jin Gradient curled up under a holly plant like a rag, her body trembling.

The puppet quietly clung to him, moved its head closer and licked vigorously, from the ears to the back, from the tail to the limbs, it almost smoothed the fur of his whole body.

"feelling better?"

The puppet asked in a very complicated tone.

With impatience, arrogance and unconcealable worry, and anger at who doesn't know who to target, in short, he is an awkward child.

An Ge's wound no longer hurts. Although it is a cat's body, the nanorobot still played its due role, repairing all physical damage inside and out with extremely high work efficiency.

He was still trembling, but just frightened.

There is an order of magnitude difference in strength between humans and cats. The kick he was kicked was the most serious injury he suffered so far, and it was even more desperate than when he faced the unbeatable curly-haired general.

He hit him head-on, like a rampaging vehicle, knocking him into the air. This feeling of being unable to make decisions and fight against him is really terrible.

...And at that moment, the man engulfed in flames let out a scream that seemed not to come from the world, but from hell filled with sulfurous flames.

But being Yue Zimo Li patiently smoothed his hair from beginning to end, no matter how much he has psychological entanglements, he has to put it away now.

Because the puppet cat was already wagging its tail vigorously, patting the grass under the bushes, obviously very impatient: "I have already burned that animal... He went crazy and killed his wife, and he deserves to die. You If there is any discomfort, tell me quickly, and I will solve it."

An Ge: "I just hope you can be gentle."

Yue Zimo Li: "..."

The puppet cat turned its head away from him, exhaling impatiently from its nostrils.

An Ge felt that she was weak at the same time and quick-mouthed at the same time, and she also knew that being strong was difficult, so she couldn't help but began to regret it.The atmosphere was extremely awkward for a while, only the voices of people outside the bushes were boiling, and the staff isolated the noisy onlookers, ran around dragging high-pressure water hoses, and were still busy fighting the fire.

Then the puppet cat turned around, and kissed Jin Gradient's round, fluffy cheek.

An Ge was stunned.

Jin Jianlayer blinked her round golden brown eyes, as dull as if transformed into a doll.

The puppet cat's face darkened, and he said fiercely: "Why are you so fond of acting like a baby, I warn you, don't push yourself too hard!"

An Ge tried her best to hold back a smile, but unfortunately she couldn't hold back, the red kitten's tongue was exposed.

He revived with full blood on the spot, and stood up energetically.

But after thinking about what happened just now, he was very worried: "The shovel officer is crazy, and the cat..."

There was a rustling sound in the distance, and a Siamese cat with slender limbs and a light body, with only a face so black as if it had just emerged from a coal pile, ran over. It was Shi Diu Diu.

"Ergou is dead." Shi Diidu said straight to the point, she hesitated, "I have important props here, let's cooperate."

The puppet cat sneered: "What qualifications does a lost cat have to talk about cooperation? Now that you have lost your partner, you don't have as much information as we do. Apart from asking us for help, is there a second way to go?"

An Ge: "Don't do this, save some face for her."

Siamese cat: "...I thank you."

An Ge brushed his tail lightly on the puppet's back to appease him, then turned to the Siamese cat and said, "We should cooperate from the very beginning."

The Siamese cat was straightforward, bowing its head and sincerely apologizing: "I'm sorry, I should have trusted you."

The puppet cat still snorted indifferently: "If an apology is useful..."

An Ge interrupted him in time: "Okay, okay, it's troublesome to talk here, let's change to another place."

Long story short after that, the remaining six cats met early at the customary rendezvous.

In order to strive for cooperation, Shi Diudi was frank, and first told the results of her and Ergou's investigations in the past few days and the accident that Ergou shoveled the officer.

First of all, Nangong Ergou's shovel officer (Zhang Qiang)'s wife (Yao Lihua) and Shi Diudi's shovel officer (Wei Ming) conspired behind their respective husbands/wife's backs to commit adultery.

Tong Jingjing's leather handbag was given to Yao Lihua by Wei Ming.

Zhang Qiang was aware of his wife's infidelity, but suffered from lack of real evidence.He is not a very capable person, he never thought of looking for evidence, but just lost his temper and quarreled all day long. Zhang Qiang has a violent temper and would even fight when he quarreled violently.

So Ergou's situation is actually very difficult.

Today, Zhang Qiang also lost his temper when he saw Yao Lihua's bag. After the quarrel, Zhang Qiang finally said that he knew that the bag was given by an adulterer, and Yao Lihua showed no guilt, just sneered and mocked him as a useless person. man.

Zhang Qiang had been in a bad mood these days, but now he was so enraged that he lost his mind, grabbed a kitchen knife and hacked his wife to death.

Shi Diudiu and Ergou were both present at the time. Ergou was careless for a while and also underestimated the mad man, but was caught by Zhang Qiang.

Although according to the system prompt, Ergou's shovel officer is Zhang Qiang, but it is obvious to Zhang Qiang that the Persian cat at home is just an obstacle that his wife insists on keeping.

The man who killed his wife vented his anger, even the cat.

At that time, Shi Diudu chose to leave his companions and escape.

An Ge and Yi Zai arrived a bit late, and when they entered the room, Zhang Qiang was already red-eyed, so he rushed over when he saw the cat.

The puppet cat sneered: "Oh? Is it our fault? We are late and hurt the second dog? I messed up the matter because I didn't live up to it, and want to rely on others?"

Shi Diudu cat was under the eaves, so he could only swallow his anger: "I didn't mean that... Actually, I want to say, thank you. Zhang Qiang has been behaving strangely these days. According to Ergou, he is full of hostility towards cats. Today let If he gets away with it, he might start killing all the cats in the neighborhood."

An Ge frowned: "Why? It doesn't sound like it's related to Tong Jingjing..."

At the same time, Adam: "Is it related to Tong Jingjing?"

Xiao Yu: "Haha, you are all in unison again."

Yue Zimo Li: "Hehe."

The puppet cat's gaze was so sharp that it made the skin tingle, An Ge had no choice but to pretend that he didn't hear anything.

Shi Didiu just shook his head: "Honestly, I don't know. But... I suspect it may be related to that thing."

Several cats said in unison: "That thing? Which thing?"

Adam was very impatient: "Don't hesitate, speak clearly."

Shi Diudu then said quickly, "That thing is very dangerous... Ergou didn't dare to touch it after he stole it from Zhang Qiang. He hid it somewhere. I'll take you there."

What Shi Diudiu took everyone to was a small park near Zhang Qiang's home. It was said to be a small park, but it actually covers a rather large area, with lush shrubs and trees planted between winding paths and flower beds.An Ge recognized holly, osmanthus, bougainvillea, witch hazel, and a few loquat trees.

Because of the age, the trees are strong, the property is lazy and has not been pruned much, and the branches are messy, so it looks a bit gloomy, and no one usually comes.

Shi Diudu went into the woods and dug a hole under a loquat tree.

After a while, she bit a long and thin wooden box and dragged it out, but she didn't dare to open it. Instead, she backed away, and the hair on her back stood up.He also hissed as if feeling dangerous.

She added: "Be careful, you might go crazy."

Another lost prop, the cats looked at each other, An Ge stepped forward: "Let me try it."

He pulled the lid off in full view.

In the crimson blood-like silk lay quietly a golden tubular object, the length of which was about the same as a pencil. On the side of the tubular, there were holes that opened at intervals, and these holes were neatly arranged at intervals.

Each hole is covered by shiny golden flakes, and there are many protrusions around the cylinder that cannot be accurately described in shape. The whole body is like a whole cast metal object, without any trace of seams.

An Ge briefly summed it up: "It's a piccolo, also called a small flute."

He stretched out his claws and fiddled with it: "It's so light, it looks like metal, but the weight is like plastic."

Shi Diu was stunned: "You, are you okay?"

An Ge nodded: "When you encounter it, you will be lost, but I passed the appraisal, so it's fine. Zhang Qiang picked it up? Do you know where you picked it up?"

Shi Diudiu added: "I'm not sure, I also heard from Ergou. Zhang Qiang originally wanted to sell it at a pawn shop, but the boss's price was so low that he came back with his things in anger. I have talked about it several times in the past few days. But... I don’t know if it’s because of this thing, but Zhang Qiang hasn’t slept well these days, and he keeps saying that a cat is barking endlessly, making it extremely noisy. But no one seems to hear it except him.”

An Ge said: "The name of this piccolo is Hastur's Call, did you think of anything?"

Muppet: "I haven't heard of Hastur, but I've heard of Hameron's Piper."

An Ge: "That is that, this is this. And you've heard of Hastur."

The puppet pondered: "Is there?"

Black Beer: "Uncle Yizi is so stupid, Hastur, the king in yellow, the god of shepherds and cat herders."

Muppet: "...can blowing this piccolo take away all the cats in the city?"

An Ge was stunned.

Although this sentence is wild and unconstrained, but...it is very possible if you think about it carefully.
