After a short wait, the darkness receded like the tide.
Su Qi touched his ear with a dark face: "It's scary, but why are you so close to me? And why do I feel like I was licked?"
He looked up.
The original landing space has turned into a wooden house.
The wooden house was very dark. A few rays of sunset glow shone through the gaps in the not-so-tight wooden door, shining onto the slightly dirty floor.
Dirty?
Su Qi looked at his feet and saw what seemed to be dried liquid on the floor. Flies were flying around the room and his nose quickly caught an indescribable smell.
Before he could see the whole picture of the wooden house.
The scene in front of my eyes suddenly became blurry, the introduction CG screen of the copy slowly emerged, and a cold voice sounded in my ears.
[Your car has a flat tire and is stranded on a desolate roadside. With nowhere else to go, you are invited by a passerby to his home.]
[His family lives in a remote town nearby. There are not many residents in the town, but everyone who meets you is very welcoming. You decide to stay there for one night and deal with your car the next day.]
[It's just that - the traces that you vaguely discovered make you uneasy]
The CG shows the scenes seen along the way, the bushes full of thorns, the church used for prayer, and the warm smiles on everyone's face.
And the next moment the task prompt appeared.
[Mission: Escape from the town or survive for three hours]
Su Qi watched the picture slowly disappear, and now he had time to look around the wooden house.
There wasn't much in the cabin except a bed.
It looked like a temporary residence for outsiders, but it was obvious that he was not the only outsider here.
Su Qi touched the dried liquid on the ground and smelled it.
“It smells like disinfectant, but more than that”
There was also a slight stench of decay that even disinfectant could not cover up, although he looked around the cabin and didn't see anything.
Su Qi's eyes suddenly paused.
A small question mark was quietly staying in the corner beside the bed.
“Sure enough, we can see it in this game.”
When he walked over, he saw the message.
[This board is a little loose]
Su Qi opened the wooden board, raised his eyebrows, and saw a horrifying scene.
There is an empty layer below, which is filled with skeletons. Several corpses have obviously not yet completely decayed, and the amount of meat hanging on them is higher than that of the pork ribs seller at the entrance of the community.
He pinched his nose and was almost knocked over by the stench after opening it.
"That is to say, all the outsiders who were invited here were killed here."
Su Qi had sharp eyes and noticed a plastic bag in the chest of one of the corpses. He reached out and took it out.
The outside of the plastic bag was covered in blood.
After opening it, I found a small recorder and a work badge inside.
"It seems he is a reporter who came here by mistake."
Su Qi skipped the previous voice messages and went straight to the last day.
A man's voice soon came from the recorder.
[It was 6:26 pm. I was so unlucky that my car broke down. I had no choice but to stay in this remote town. However, the residents were very welcoming and sent me dinner. It was delicious.]
[At 7pm, when I was about to go out, the enthusiastic maid next door, Mary, took me for a walk as if she was waiting for me. I found that there was a church in this small town with a population of less than people. The patterns on the church gave me a very familiar feeling, but I couldn’t remember them.]
[It’s 7:40 pm, the sun has already set, and the people in the town seem to go to church to pray at this time. Although it’s a bit strange, this is their custom.]
[7:47pm. I can’t stand the smell of dead rats in the cabin anymore. Can’t they find out? I wanted to mention it, but seeing how hospitable they were, I couldn’t bring myself to clean it up.]
The voice did not hang up. Apparently he had found the source of the stench and was now crunching the floor.
Suki already knew what was going to happen next.
After opening.
"Snapped!"
There was a distinct sound of the recorder falling, followed by his trembling voice of fear: [Oh my god, what the hell is this! ? ]
The voice was disconnected.
Apparently the other party discovered the skeleton inventory underneath.
Su Qi moved his eyes to the last voice message, which was timed at 8 o'clock in the evening.
A trembling voice came from the recorder, and one could clearly sense the despair and fear in the voice, which was completely different from the beginning.
[Why are there so many corpses here? Could they be... I remember that pattern! Damn it! Everyone here is an evil believer, and every outsider will be sacrificed to the devil.]
The man wanted to escape and his steps were very panicked, but he suddenly stopped, as if he saw something terrifying outside the window.
[They have finished praying and are all holding torches, standing outside the cabin]
The voice became smaller and smaller at this point, and it made a final desperate sound weakly and tremblingly.
[I can’t escape anymore]
[Click! 】
The sound of the cabin door opening was heard in the recorder.
Simultaneously.
Su Qi heard the same sound coming from the wooden door behind him.
"Click."
Chapter 3: Everyone in the town has special skills
The woman at the door was dressed in a maid's uniform. She pushed the door open with a smile. In her hand was a tray with an exquisite dinner on it.
"Dear guest, this is dinner for you. You must be starving."
The moment Su Qi opened the door, he had already put the wooden board down, then stood up and greeted him calmly.
He said politely, "Thank you."
Then he looked at the dinner and frowned, "Wait, why is there no cilantro? I love cilantro."
The maid's smiling face froze. In the past, she would thank strangers sincerely, take the food like a gentleman, and then praise its deliciousness.
Who would ask her why there is no such thing as cilantro.
"No, I can't eat without cilantro."
She was silent for a moment, then compromised:
"Sorry, I can redo it if you really want."
Su Qi waved his hands and said, "Forget it, forget it. I'm so hungry. Give it to me."
"." The maid clenched her fist and handed it over.
Su Qi took the plate and said, "By the way, after I finish eating, I want to go to the town to see if there is a place that can repair the tire. Can you take me there?"
"Of course, my dear." The maid leaned forward and said, "I will wait for you outside. I won't disturb you while you are eating now."
When she was about to turn and leave.
"By the way." Su Qi stopped him and said, "What's your name?"
"Ma"
"Forget it. Not interested."
The door of the wooden house was slammed shut by Su Qi.
Maid Mary's eyes were bloodshot and veins were popping out as she pinched her fingers.
Damn, if you're not interested, why are you asking?
Uneducated stuff!
When the time comes, I will cut you into pieces!
"Wow—"
Su Qi poured the dinner directly into the empty space under the wooden board.
I'm not sure if there's anything wrong with this dinner, but it's best not to eat it.
He leaned back on the bed and thought carefully, "It seems that my guess was right. As long as it's not time for prayer at the church, I'm still safe."
"Of course, the premise is that I can't escape or reveal any flaws. I have to appear harmless enough."
While pretending to eat.
Su Qi opened his character panel.
