Strange game designer.

Chapter 487 Winter Melon
Donggua has been learning dance since she was young. Her dream stage is the Golden Hall in Vienna, but in reality her stage is under a hospital bed in a haunted house.

After graduation, she became an NPC in the Magic City Lunatic Asylum with her physical flexibility and coordination far exceeding that of ordinary people, playing the role of a patient with both physical and mental distortions.

After two weeks of training, Donggua went to work alone for the first time. She stayed at her "workstation" a little nervously, waiting for instructions from the Bluetooth headset.

But what she didn't expect was that a tourist suddenly squatted beside the bed and stared at her silently.

It was pitch black under the bed. Normally, people outside should not be able to see anything, but Donggua felt uneasy because the look in the tourist's eyes was so strange.

It's like when people go to an aquarium to see the mermaids. Everyone knows that the mermaids are played by humans, and they all look at them with admiration, but that person silently took out various seasonings, as if he wanted to taste the mermaid.

This is very abnormal!
Donggua held her fingers nervously and did not dare to move. But then she discovered something even stranger: she actually saw disappointment in the tourist's eyes.

"I disappointed him? What do you mean? Did he expect to see a real ghost under the bed?"

Donggua was a little angry. He didn’t become famous for dancing, and he was looked down upon for being an actor in a haunted house?
A command came from the headset, and Donggua's expression changed immediately. She deliberately made a noise to attract the attention of several people in the room.

"Any clues?" An Yuan was locked in another room when he came last time and had no idea what was here. He approached the bed cautiously and when he bent down to look down, Donggua's ghost face suddenly popped out!
"Ahhhh!"

The ghost screamed at the point of tearing his throat, and An Yuan was so scared that he sat down on the ground and backed away repeatedly. Lao Cao ran away!
Donggua was extremely excited. She ignored Anyuan and Lao Cao, and got on all fours and crawled towards Gaoming at a rapid speed.

With an upside-down face, sharp screams, and twisted body and limbs under the blood-stained hospital uniform, Donggua did not abide by the previous rules prohibiting contact with tourists and chased Gao Ming madly.

"Is this person possessed?" Gao Ming, who was playing the escape room for the first time, turned and ran.

In Donggua's opinion, Gao Ming made a mistake that all newbies would make. He ran in panic without knowing where to go, which would only force himself into a dead end, where he would experience the deepest fear and be ravaged by the "ghost".

"ah!"

With her teeth bared, Donggua climbed faster and faster, but she could not catch up with Gao Ming.

"I've been in this field for two weeks and I'm familiar with every road. Even if I can't see, it won't affect me. What's wrong with that guy? Is he wearing night vision goggles?"

After chasing for three minutes, Donggua was tired of climbing. She straightened up and heard instructions from the central control in the headset, saying that Gao Ming had deviated from the outer exploration area. She needed to start her own side quest and guide Gao Ming to carry out the single-player story.

The Magic City Madhouse has a very high degree of freedom and a large number of NPCs. There is no need to follow a fixed plot, which is why An Yuan and Origami are willing to experience it many times.

"Tsk, I'm really asking for trouble." Donggua adjusted her expression and crawled up again. She crawled for another minute in a twisted and dark manner. Seeing that she was getting farther and farther away from Gao Ming, she had to speak: "Wait a minute!"

"You're talking?" Gao Ming stopped at a corner, squatted down, and stared at Donggua curiously. Being stared at by Gao Ming like that, Donggua lost the fun of being scared for the first time, and felt awkward for no reason, but in order to avoid being deducted money, she had to continue acting: "I was just saving you, the female nurse and the dean are in cahoots, they want to feed you to the monster!"

"Oh." Gao Ming nodded and asked, "You work here, no, you are hospitalized here. Have you encountered any strange things recently? For example, there is a stranger among your colleagues who you don't know at all?"

"Ah?" Donggua was a newcomer in the dance major. Her legs were still hanging around her neck, and her face was full of confusion.

"Forget it, let's go straight to the next step." Gao Ming had learned from An Yuan and Origami before that the Magic City Lunatic Asylum covers a very large area, and there are many hidden areas that are unlocked according to the plot. He wants to explore it all at once, so he can't waste any time.

"There is a very horrible secret hidden in the mental hospital. Our director died a long time ago. It is said that the current director is a madman in disguise. He has been doing various experiments on us. The most chilling one is..." Donggua said gloomily: "The Tragic Life Plan."

"A miserable life?"

"The dean needed the most desperate soul to carry something. Since there was no suitable candidate in reality, he made one himself, locked us in a nightmare, and induced us to go crazy! Our memories became disordered! Our souls became deformed!" Donggua screamed hysterically, and her words resonated with Gao Ming. Of course, Donggua certainly didn't know that her false lines triggered Gao Ming's real reaction.

"Then do I need to kill the dean next?" Gao Ming's tone was calm without a trace of ripples. He seemed to start stating a fact after careful consideration.

Some of the powder on Donggua's face fell off. She forgot the words because of what Gao Ming said. As a newcomer with little experience, the tourists in front of her felt like a big challenge.

"We need to find the thing that the dean treasures before he completes the ceremony!" Donggua continued to twist his body, trying to make himself look more terrifying.

"Aren't you tired of keeping the same posture all the time? Don't worry about being discovered slacking off. There is no surveillance in this blind spot, so you can take a short break." Gao Ming's voice was very warm, and Donggua's heart warmed up when she heard it, but then she felt a chill on her back.

The haunted house is densely covered with surveillance cameras. Even when Gao Ming was being chased, he actually found a blind spot that the surveillance cameras could not see!
Taking a deep breath, Donggua put down the legs hanging around his neck and changed to a comfortable position: "Don't interrupt me, what I'm going to say next is very important, you must remember it clearly."

"Ah."

"I once eavesdropped on the conversation between the dean and the head nurse outside the dean's office. Everything they did revolved around a black box. Only the most desperate people could take out the contents of the black box."

"So the thing I'm looking for is hidden in that black box?" Gao Ming remembered the two words "black box".

"I can take you to the dean's office, but before that you have to prove three things to me." Donggua held up three fingers, with a sly look in his eyes: "You must be brave enough, innocent enough, and desperate enough."

The line that Donggua is in charge of is the most difficult one in the Magic City Lunatic Asylum. Precisely because almost no one can trigger it, it is given to her, a newcomer who is not very skilled in the business.
