Strange game designer.

Chapter 513 The show begins

"It's still a while before midnight, do you want to go to sleep?" Xu De looked at Gao Ming who had just returned from outside and was a little surprised: "You gave the medicine box to someone else? Is anyone injured outside the manor?"

"Someone will bring the medicine box back tonight." Gao Ming smiled and pulled Xu Deyi to a corner. "The owner of the house may pay extra attention to you tonight. In order not to expose our plan, you'd better not have any unnecessary communication with other testers, and don't get too close to the owner of the house. Don't do what he asks you to do. Don't pretend to obey, but secretly disobey, and delay as much as possible."

"Do I look that unreliable?" Xu Deyi muttered. He had seen Gao Ming's methods in his last nightmare and respected Gao Ming from the bottom of his heart, so even if he was a little unhappy, he would still do what Gao Ming said.

"This is to protect you." Gao Ming asked Xu Deyi to get the needle and thread and the medicine box. He guessed that the owner of the house had begun to suspect that he knew the truth and might even be thinking of getting rid of him at night.

"I think you are trying to PUA me." Spreading his hands, Xu Deyi said helplessly: "Don't worry, I will listen to you."

It was dinner time. Perhaps because everyone was frightened last night, the owner of the house personally cooked a meal for the testers.

The wooden dining table was filled with various kinds of meat, and the ceramic bottle was filled with hot goat milk. It smelled a little fishy, ​​but no one dared to drink it. After all, not even the sound of sheep could be heard in the manor, and no one knew where the goat milk came from.

"Someone has sneaked into the manor. I'm sorry to have brought you a bad experience." The owner of the house opened a bottle of wine and poured the deep red wine into a transparent glass, which inexplicably carried an extremely aggressive beauty: "The mountain is closed due to the blizzard. Tonight, everyone must work together to overcome the difficulties and drive that dirty thing out!"

"You're welcome. We've caused you a lot of trouble by staying here. We should help you deal with those things." Qian Jin is very good at being polite, but he usually talks but does not act.

"In addition to climbers and snowmen, you must also be careful of other unknown things. If you find snow and water stains in the house, notify me immediately." The owner of the house also carried a hunting rifle while eating. His attitude towards the testers softened a lot, which might just mean that he wanted to use the testers.

Sitting at the table, Gao Ming still did not touch the food on the table: "Where is Bai Huang? Why didn't I see her coming down? That sister is the strongest among us. Her physical fitness and mental willpower far exceed others. She is our backbone."

"She was seriously injured, but she didn't show it just to stabilize the morale of the troops. She is still resting in room 3009." The owner of the house took out a dinner plate and placed the food and goat milk on it: "Your name is Qian Jin, right? Send the dinner plate to Bai Huang while it's still hot."

"My pleasure." Qian Jin nodded with a forced smile, picked up the plate and left the kitchen.

Dinner started, but only the fool had a big appetite and ate everything.

The lights were flickering, the repaired chimney was not working well, the kitchen was very dusty, and Gao Ming had no appetite at all. He picked up the plate, put some food on it, and prepared to go back to his room.

When Gao Ming reached the second floor and was about to turn the corner, he heard Qian Jin's voice. Qian Jin, who was thin, was holding an empty plate, as if he was waiting for Gao Ming here on purpose.

"What's up?"

"Bai Huang is not right." Qian Jin showed Gao Ming the plate. "She never eats the food in nightmares, but when I went to deliver the food just now, she took a bite of the meat and stared at the goat milk for a long time."

"Did she say anything?" Gao Ming moved away from the fence and stood in the shadows.

"It seems she said... not fish meat." Qian Jin thought carefully: "Bai Huang is in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness. She seems to have caught a fish near East Lake last night. Do you know what fish represents in this dream?"

"I'm not sure. Don't worry about it for now. We'll act according to the plan tonight." Gao Ming and Qian Jin passed each other and he returned to his room 2009.

After a day of drying, the house was still damp and cold, the quilt was wet, and the cracks in the wall became more obvious. I opened the curtains, and the last remaining light of the day sank into the snow-capped mountains. The darkness enveloped everything, and the only sound I could hear was the sound of the wind and snow.

"Both sides are telling different stories. Should we believe the ghosts in the winter night? Or the people in the nightmare?"

A drop of ice water fell on the back of Gao Ming's neck, but he didn't look scared at all, as if he had expected it.

After putting the food on the table, Gao Ming moved a chair and sat in front of the fireplace, as if talking to himself: "The doll told me a lot of things. It may come back tonight. Do you want to meet it?"

Water droplets slid across the ceiling and the humidity in the room increased, but apart from that there was nothing unusual.

Gao Ming didn't care. He closed his eyes and waited quietly for the signal that money was coming in.

The cold night seemed to freeze time as well. Gao Ming discovered that the flesh and blood seeds in his pocket were constantly transmitting information to him. The call from East Lake was even stronger than last night!

As time went by, it seemed like something was about to come out of East Lake.

After a long time, the hands of the clock on the wall stopped moving. Gao Ming felt colder and colder. His eyelids were trembling with cold. Then, there was a knock on the door, exactly three times.

"Qian Jin is about to take action."

When Gao Ming opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was that the water drops on the ceiling had turned into icicles at some point. The sharp cones were hanging above his eyes, and there seemed to be a blurry human face hidden in the turbid ice.

Turning his head, Gao Ming saw a frozen face pressed against the glass window. The climber was clinging to the windowsill. His fingers were as thick as purple-black radishes, with the front part broken. He seemed to be trying hard to get into the house.

"Are they all here?" Gao Ming was still relatively calm. He recounted the story he had heard from the little girl by the window, always observing the changes in expressions on the climber's and the face in the ice cone.

The climber was still dazed, with a hint of resentment in his eyes, and the face in the ice cone seemed to become more painful and self-blaming.

Gao Ming recalled the photo he saw in room 3003. The face in the ice cone did look somewhat similar to his brother.

"My brother turned into a snowman? Or is it just a part of him that is hidden in the snowman? My sister's dolls were separated and hidden in different places. My brother's fate may be even worse."

There were three more knocks on the door, and Qian Jin and the others seemed a little anxious.

"I will find out the truth, but before that, I have to bear with you for a while." Gao Ming jumped up on a chair and grabbed the icicle. Then the whole manor heard his screams and cries for help!

At the beginning Gao Ming was indeed acting, but when he was fully engaged, all kinds of terrible memory fragments emerged in his mind, and he seemed to have experienced countless deaths in a nightmare.

The sound became more and more miserable, and soon footsteps were heard in the corridor, the door was opened, and the owner of the house appeared at the door with a shotgun.
