I became the strongest beater in the thriller game

Chapter 15 Puppet Tourist Town (13)

Song Xiaoling's worried mood was calmed by Fang Yi's words, while Su Yun quickly cleaned the stage in silence.

My impression is that Song Xiaoling is a strong and brave little girl. She can face emergencies relatively calmly and rationally. For matters involving life and death, it is inevitable that she will be a little nervous and worried at first. It is like a teacher randomly checking the recitation of homework. Anyone would be nervous if a scholar was inserted into a class that had already studied this course, but had to be randomly checked on their progress.

After cleaning, Su Yun wanted to go to the third floor to take a look while the theater was empty.

Fang Yi and others probably wanted to go with her, but they were surprised when they saw that she didn't go downstairs, but went upstairs.

Song Xiaoling called to her, "Sister Su, where are you going?"

When she asked about the details of Su Yun's puppeteering at noon, Song Xiaoling developed a sense of trust in Su Yun and kept calling her Sister Su. Perhaps because the corridor was quiet at night, her voice was soft, like a thief.

Su Yun was a little funny, but she didn't hide it. She said: "I plan to go to the third floor to take a look." Her voice was also low.

Fang Yi frowned: "Miss Aya does not allow employees to enter the third floor. The third floor will be very dangerous." He didn't understand why Su Yun would take such a risk unless——

"Miss Su, did you accept some mission?"

There was uncontrollable joy in Fang Yi's voice, and he could already conclude that Su Yun had accepted the NPC's mission.

Being able to venture to places expressly prohibited by NPCs will most likely be props or skill quests. The skills and props dropped in high-level dungeons will definitely not be low-level.

His guess was indeed good. Su Yun is a good new player. He must gain Su Yun's trust. This will be a very good breakthrough.

Su Yun was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

Regarding the mission [Puppet’s Wish], if it’s not unexpected, you will see the puppet who looks like Aya after a while. If the mission is not triggered by just one person, then these people will definitely accept the mission.

In addition, going to the third floor to check was just to confirm her inner conjecture. It is possible that what she saw was not helpful to what she wanted to know, resulting in a wasted trip.

So Su Yun didn't plan to say anything more, and just walked lightly towards the third floor.

Behind him were three footsteps of varying severity.

Su Yun turned around, a little confused, "Why don't you leave?"

Fang Yi's eyes were gentle: "Miss Su has helped us. In this case, I may be able to help Miss Su." His words were sincere.

Su Yun looked at Song Xiaoling who was following Fang Yi, feeling confused.

Fang Yi forget it, he has always been very kind-hearted, what happened to Song Xiaoling?Isn't she worried about Xu Mengmeng?
Su Yun's question was too obvious. Song Xiaoling said: "Sister Su, Mengmeng and I made an appointment in the morning, asking her to wait for me at the hotel if she gets off work first."

"Sister Su, I saw it during the day. That kind of old-fashioned lock is easy to open. I can open it."

Su Yun: "...Huh?"

Song Xiaoling was a little embarrassed, "When I was watching TV, I saw an actor opening a lock easily, so I learned it out of curiosity. It's still very simple."

Su Yun was silent and asked solemnly: "Can you teach me?"

This made Song Xiaoling a little surprised. She thought Su Yun had a solemn expression and would preach to her like others. She didn't expect this reaction, so she nodded happily, "Okay, Sister Su."

No matter how you say it, Song Xiaoling is still a little girl who is still in school. At first, she needed to set a role model for Xu Mengmeng, and then she behaved like a strong little adult. Now she reveals the coquettishness of a little daughter, which is very cute.

This made Fang Yi's eyes dim, showing a little nostalgia, as if he saw other people through the girl in front of him.

Yan An didn't make a sound and followed a few people expressionlessly, like a moving humanoid background board.

The door on the third floor was an old-fashioned wooden door with an old-style round keyhole. Song Xiaoling took out the steel clip she used to fix her hair, inserted it into the keyhole and turned it. There was only a slight sound, and the door creaked open.

There was only a small window on the third floor, which gave a faint light, and the furnishings inside could not be seen clearly. Su Yun took out the mobile phone in his pocket, turned on the screen, and pressed the switch on the wall according to the light of the screen, and the incandescent light illuminated it. The furnishings on the third floor.

The inside looks ordinary, like a residential building, with the primary and secondary bedrooms closed off, but traces of life can be seen in the living room. There are several puppets hanging on the wall, which they used when practicing hanging silk puppets. That way, the third floor seems to be cleaned regularly and there is no dust.

Song Xiaoling was the first to speak: "There doesn't seem to be anything strange about this."

Fang Yida said: "What are you looking for, Miss Su?" Although he asked directly, his gentle words did not make people feel offended.

Su Yun shook his head slightly, "I don't know."

Originally, I wanted to see if there was any information about the photo in Aya's pocket watch on the third floor, such as the vague-looking man holding the puppet. Maybe I could find out what the puppet Aya wanted to see. What the show is like.But this was just her guess.

She planned to come to the third floor to inspect alone, but she didn't expect these people to follow them regardless of the danger. This gave Su Yun a headache. This might be life-threatening, and she didn't like to owe favors.

After Su Yun finished speaking, he walked straight into the house and inspected the things in the room.

Her movements were very light, and she did not touch the old objects in the room with too much movement.

Fang Yi curled his lips and said, "Then let's split up and look for any useful clues, then we'll gather the clues together and get back to the hotel at ten o'clock." He said and looked at Yan An.

Yan An is an old player. He has not panicked at all since the beginning of the dungeon. It is not difficult to see that he has some abilities. Moreover, based on the NPC's attitude towards him, Fang Yi has a bad guess about Yan An's identity.

However, unlikely.

He should have some special skills.

Seeing Yan An's attention on Su Yun, his eyes unblinking and full of curiosity, Fang Yi felt a sense of crisis inexplicably.

That's the feeling of being coveted by others.

Su Yun is the person he likes. He has spent enough patience and time on Su Yun, and there is no way that all his efforts will be wasted, even if Su Yun's trust in him is not high.

Fang Yi's own skills require Su Yun's trust to reach a certain level in order to make Su Yun surrender to him physically and mentally, but Su Yun is too wary. She is not like these little girls, or she is not timid from the beginning. No matter how independent a new player is, he will show gratitude and trust to the friendly players from the moment he enters the dungeon.

Su Yun is a new player with excellent conditions in all aspects. She triggered the task of skills or props in the first dungeon in the novice stage. Not every player can obtain skills and task reward props in the novice stage, so It takes not only luck but also courage.

In subsequent dungeons or the main arena, as long as Su Yun is tamed, she will be a pleasing and easy-to-use puppet.

After escaping from the last high-level dungeon, Fang Yi used up the last puppet in his hand, and he now needs to replenish the puppets.

He has thought that in the future, as long as Su Yun pleases him enough, he will generously retain Su Yun's self-awareness, just like he treats the person in his heart, and will leave some room for free movement.Fang Yi looked at Su Yun with eyes that seemed to treat people as belongings, with an unnoticeable appreciation. The figure, temperament, and appearance had always been Su Yun's most attractive features.

However, Su Yun's attitude towards Yan An was very peaceful and there was not much resistance. This made Fang Yi feel bad, even though he still maintained a gentle smile on his face.

Fang Yi became murderous towards Yan An.

Other players may not know, but he knows very well that the essence of a player is the confrontation stage. God-making games create the only god. He doesn't mind sending Yan An on the road when the copy is about to end. People who covet him will never There is good fruit to eat.

At this moment, Yan An looked at Fang Yi calmly, which made Fang Yi suddenly startled. Then he looked away and strode towards the closed door. He opened the door and stepped forward, all in one movement.

It seems that in response to Fang Yi's words, they split up to look for clues.

This time Su Yun also agreed to his proposal. Starting from the main hall where he was inspecting, Song Xiaoling and Fang Yize went to the remaining rooms together.

Most of the furnishings in the room are from the Republic of China period, but they appear to be well preserved and not broken. Several puppets in the room are wearing ordinary puppet costumes, facing Su Yun, their ink-dotted eyes seeming to be staring directly at Su. Like a cloud, the mouth painted red seems to be smiling but not smiling.

Su Yun stopped looking at the uncomfortable puppets. There were no photos or anything like that in the living room. Su Yun opened the drawer of the only bookcase in the living room.

Inside lay an open letter.

The letter seemed to be affected by dampness, and the ink on it was smeared. The recipient was ominous, but the letter writer could clearly see the character "week". The content seemed to be a reply to the recipient's invitation to perform a puppet show.

Beyond that, there are no other useful clues.

Su Yun went to look for clues elsewhere in the living room, and inadvertently noticed that the puppets on the wall were still facing her as she moved, their eyes still staring straight at her, and the curvature of their scarlet lips seemed to be wider. .

Su Yun was frightened by the puppet Aya, and she felt very calm now. The puppet on the wall was nothing compared to the dangerous situation she originally expected.

Fang Yi and others hadn't come out yet and had already finished inspecting the living room. They didn't want to wait any longer, so they headed towards the room where Yan An was.

Without him, Yan An was acting alone, and Fang Yi's enthusiastic attitude made it difficult for her to resist.

The room Yan An was in was not a bedroom, but a collection room. There were many antique items in it, as well as a cupboard covered with vines. The vines seemed to see through the wall, wrapping the cupboard and showing through. Through the gap, you can clearly see several ancient puppets placed inside.

Su Yun was surprised. The puppets locked in the safe were the same old puppets that were performing on the stage when she first entered the theater. The old puppets were not beautiful, and the grain of the wood could still be seen vaguely, and they did not look like them. The ones used for practice were made very large in order to fit the size of the stage. They looked like they were about the size of a forearm.

There is also a locked box in the cupboard. Judging from the size of the wooden box, it seems that there is also a puppet inside.

Su Yun couldn't help but think of the beautifully dressed puppet in a cheongsam in the pocket watch photo.

Yan An had been watching Su Yun intentionally or unintentionally since she entered the house, telling Su Yun that she was in danger of leaving without turning around.

This man has become very strange since the second conversation in the hotel. He is overly curious about Su Yun. It seems that he has known Su Yun a long time ago, but the person he knows is different from the one he knows now.

This strange association...

Su Yun looked directly at Yan An and spoke as calmly as possible: "Why do you always look at me?"

Yan An was slightly startled and said calmly: "Curious."

Su Yun raised his eyebrows, "I'm just an ordinary person, what should I be curious about? It bothers me that you always look at me like this."

Yan An looked away and stopped talking.

Su Yun had no choice but to ignore this person. Her intuition told her that these puppets should be related to her mission and were very crucial.

Just as she stepped forward, the vines wrapped around the cabinet suddenly moved, slowly wrapping the cabinet tighter and tighter.

Su Yun had to stop his movements. Except for the special cabinet, there was nothing special in the room.

The moving tree vines were so weird that Su Yun did not dare to touch them rashly, so he left the room, followed by Yan An as if nothing happened. At this time, Fang Yi and Xu Mengmeng also came out of the room. .

Song Xiaoling said: "The landlord is a man and has a daughter. His daughter seems to like puppet shows very much. The puppets in the room are the ones my daughter hung when she was a child."

Fang Yi nodded: "My surname is Zhou, he is a wealthy businessman."

Su Yun told several people about the clues he saw. At this time, the system prompt sounded——

[Congratulations to the player for triggering the side mission: The Secret of Puppet Travel Town]

[Task Introduction: The Puppet Tourist Town does not seem to be what it seems on the surface. What is hidden behind the Tourist Town?What is the past?What is it now? 】

[Task duration: until the end of the copy]

[Task reward: one thousand points, copy props dropped]

[Mission: Puppet’s Wish]

[Remaining duration of the mission: two days]

[Completion progress: 0/1 (players please complete the task as soon as possible)]

Su Yun was slightly stunned. The previous system prompts that the previously accepted tasks will not be reported together, and the report it received was not comprehensive. Aya's task was not reported together, so it is very likely that the puppet's wish is in the right direction. And the secret of Puppet Tourist Town is connected.

Probably in response to her guess, a faint singing voice sounded outside, with a sad tune, as if it was singing to the part where the puppet spins away in the fire.

Song Xiaoling's face turned pale, and Fang Yi also frowned and said, "It's getting late. It's dangerous late at night. Let's go back to the hotel quickly."

The few people said no more, locked the door and ran downstairs.

When we arrived on the first floor, the situation last night was indeed the same. The door of the cafeteria was opened, the lights were on inside, and the rich and tempting fragrance hit our nostrils. She was very hungry, and Song Xiaoling's pace was a little stagnant.

She swallowed, "It smells so good."

Except for Yan An, the pace of everyone slowed down slightly.

The situation now is a little different. The theater employees who were supposed to get off work were queuing up to go in to eat. Some people even saw them and greeted them warmly, "Come here for extra food and supper. If it's too late, we'll be gone."
