absurd deduction game.

Chapter 248 Nightmare (9) - Madman
The red curtain made of light gauze was gently rolled up, and the figure on it was sleeping restlessly.

The figure turned over, and it didn't know where it hit. A peanut fell from the bed, rolled to the corner of the round table in the center of the room, and made an imperceptible sound.

The wine glasses were neatly placed on the round table, and against the backdrop of the festive tablecloth that was specially spread, the textured walls of the glasses reflected a faint brilliance.

The word "囍" was posted in all conspicuous places, as if to tell everyone that this happy event is worth celebrating.

There were many peanuts and dates under Zhou Xue's body, which meant "to have a precious son early". She turned over uncomfortably, and raised her hand in a daze to touch the hard jade pillow under her head. The cold touch cleared her mind. After a while, he opened his eyes in shock.

Where am I!

She didn't dare to move, the red candle lit on the bedside candlestick announced one thing - she was dreaming again.

And this time the dream was different from the previous ones, it was the first time she came to this strange place.It looks like... a wedding scene in ancient times?

A thunderstorm sounded in her mind, and fear appeared in her eyes involuntarily, because she clearly remembered that the man in the dream said every day, let her go back and get married...

Zhou Xue noticed that there seemed to be no one else in the room, so she nervously sat up with her arms stretched out.

This movement, a touch of red instantly made her complexion ugly. She looked down and found that she was wearing a thick bridal gown, and the hem of the skirt was spread out, occupying a large area.

How come... She obviously didn't promise him?

Why are you still here?
Didn't it mean that as long as you don't let go, ghosts will have nothing to do with people?

Her mind was in a mess, and she was used to this state of being so awake in a dream, but for a while, she was still unwilling to accept the fact that the scene had changed.

The previous dreams were all set in her bedroom. No matter how scary the female ghost and the man in the dream were, she still felt that it was far from the truth. Besides, she had jade, so it shouldn't be a big deal...

Where is my jade?

Zhou Xue touched her chest in shock, and found that the scene and clothes in this dream had changed, and even the jade was gone.

Cold sweat immediately soaked her entire back, and she got up in a hurry. In order to facilitate the possible chase later, she also put on the red embroidered shoes by the bed.

After a while, Zhou Xue took off the obstructive outer robe, leaving a red middle coat which was more convenient for movement, and then settled down to look around.

The windows were not closed tightly, and the night came through the gaps, and the moonlight could not be seen, but it felt gloomy.

"When can I wake up..."

She has to face two scary ghosts in her dreams every day. She has already developed resistance. She has not seen ghosts at the moment. Although she is panicked, she calms down quickly. what.

To some extent, Zhou Xue is really suitable for her current job. For her, designing horror games is not difficult.

She usually plays a lot of horror games, and she used to joke with her colleagues that when there is holographic technology, she must design a horror game and transplant it into it, so that players can experience the VIP treatment of being on the scene.

Now she felt it earlier.

The game experience is extremely bad-no one would be daring after knowing that he would really be dragged to his death by a ghost.

Zhou Xue glanced out cautiously through the open window.

According to past experience, she probably stayed in the dream for about four or ten minutes, but the scene changed today. Maybe the ghost stayed by her side for a long time, and the influence has become deeper... She didn't know what the change today meant. What is this, I can only try to get rid of the worst thoughts and try my best to last for four or ten minutes.

As a person who has a lot of experience in designing horror plots, Zhou Xue looked at the darkness outside and made up her mind to go out.

In horror games or horror movies, ordering is not allowed, and running around is not allowed, but these two principles are all based on multiple people, and the plot must be weakened.

Now she clearly knows who will come to her - nothing more than the man who has evolved to chase her in dreams with a knife.

She definitely can't stay here peacefully. She doesn't need to think about it. Before long, that person will come to this wedding room to "marry" her. She must escape before the other party arrives and hide. Get up, hide for as long as you can, and it's best to survive this dream. In this case, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow... If she has such a dream again, she will have experience.

Just as he was thinking, footsteps came from the door.

Along with the sound of footsteps, there was also a melodious little tune, but the person who hummed it seemed to be in a good mood, and the tunes were all fluttering, with a unique sense of danger.

As soon as Zhou Xue's face changed, she grabbed the window and was about to turn it out.

Her clothes were still too long, it was inconvenient to move, and she was afraid of being discovered if she made a noise, so she gritted her teeth and tried very hard to control it.

The door rang.

Zhou Xue also flipped out in a nick of time.

The moon is still there, exuding a brilliance that is better than nothing, so that she will not fall.

Outside the house is a small grass field, which seems to have been carefully cared for by the gardener. There are some unnamed flowers planted. The pruning technique of the spherical grass group is quite good. There is a clump just by the window, which can block Zhou Xue's figure Six or seven points.

The person humming the tune entered the room, and the music stopped suddenly.

"Huh? Run away?" The deep male voice carried a trace of obvious dissatisfaction, as if the perverted killer found that the target he had slipped away while he was not paying attention, and there was a kind of excitement in watching the prey struggle needlessly.

"Let me see...where can I go?"

Zhou Xue shrank down the window sill as the voice moved from far to near, intending to use the protruding eaves and spherical grass balls to cover her tracks.

However, a hand reached out from behind her and grabbed her arm.

Before she screamed in fright, the other hand firmly covered her mouth, blocking all her voices, and pulled her aside with an irresistible force.

Zhou Xue struggled, she caught a glimpse of the red cuff behind her out of the corner of her eye, and felt a burst of despair in her heart: "It's over, why is this thing still teleporting?"

She was quickly dragged far away, and stopped behind several other connected grass balls. The person who pulled her said impatiently, "What are you moving, do you want to be discovered?"

His voice was gloomy, as cold as a piece of ice, and his tone was fierce, as if he disliked a pig.

Zhou Xue paused, and heard that the voice was different from that of the people humming in the room.

She stopped struggling, and just about to ask the people behind to remove the hand covering her mouth, she saw that the window she climbed out of was still flapping slightly.

……Yup!
She pushed the window open when she came out, and then hid under it, but the two shutters of the window did not return to static, but opened and closed slightly.

As long as the person entering the room is not blind, he can tell that someone has just left through the window!

Zhou Xue was frightened for a while, and looked up, sure enough, half a person came out of the window the next moment.

It was a man wearing a half-mask, his eyes and nose were covered, leaving only a mouth and a smooth, graceful chin.His hair is half-long, and his leaning movements are extremely aggressive.

"Low your head." The person behind reminded her coldly, let go of her arm, and pressed her head down.

Zhou Xue: "..."

She bent down in cooperation, making sure that she would not be seen by the man looking around at the window, and looked there through the limited gaps in the leaves of the grass ball.

The man seemed to be smiling: "It's pretty good to hide~ Is it - here?"

With an unbelievable flexibility, he leaned his entire upper body almost upside down.

He raised one hand high, holding a sharp knife in his hand, and stabbed fiercely at the window eaves!
The person who seemed to be handsome at first directly exposed his crazy nature, which made people feel cold from the bottom of his heart.

Zhou Xue began to rejoice that her mouth was still covered, because she almost screamed in the moment just now.

If she hadn't been pulled away, she would be hiding where the man was looking at now.

I wanted to use the principle of darkness under the lamp to escape, but I ignored the window leaf that exposed her position. Fortunately, someone pulled her to move her position, otherwise, one can imagine what will happen to her now...

Strong fear swept over.

The man seemed a little unexpected: "Oh? It's not here? You're a little smarter than I thought..."

Zhou Xue: "..."

His body shrank back, as if away from the window.

The person behind her let go of her mouth only now, and stepped back at the same time.

Zhou Xue turned her head covered in cold sweat, and saw a young man with a stern and profound face.

She was convinced in an instant that she had never seen this person in the previous dream. In fact, even the man who hummed the tune just now was slightly different in temperament from the man in the dream who wanted her to marry obediently.

But the latter two are obviously still the same person, but I don't know, why suddenly there is this person who has never seen in front of me today, and it seems to be helping her.

The weirdest thing was that this person was wearing a bright red wedding gown. Although he didn't wear a matching hat, it was obvious that it was a groom's gown.

Seeing the mission target staring at him blankly, Zhao Yijiu frowned.

What he hates the most are protection tasks, which means that his life is no longer his own, and whether he can survive is largely determined by the IQ and cooperation of the protection target.

He teased Zhou Xue impatiently: "Leave here first, he didn't follow to find out because of his demeanor, it doesn't mean he will give up and check this place thoroughly."

"Oh." Zhou Xue was still thinking that the groom and the villain who wanted to take her away in the dream were not the same person. Hearing this, he could only nod obediently, and let the other party drag him quietly to another yard.

After walking for a while, she realized that she was the "bride" and the other party was the "groom". The pervert who wanted to kill her, uh, it's true to say so, that pervert... who is it?
Since that person is not the groom, why did he want her to come back to marry him?
And now it seemed that the "groom" was not on the same side as that person, and even wanted to protect her. She suddenly couldn't figure out what was the meaning of that person asking her to do something to cry about the bride every night.

The groom was very familiar with the yard, so he took her to the garden, which had the most colorful things, which had an advantage in blocking the view, and the venue was large so it would not be blocked.

After a while, the two squatted down behind the rockery, and Zhou Xue was finally able to ask: "What the hell is this place?"

Zhao Yijiu glanced at her: "Fangfu."

Before Zhou Xue fell asleep, he had been wandering around this place for a long time.

This is a complete version of the yin house, the layout is exactly the same as the five-entry and five-exit courtyard in the first stage, but it is much more prosperous.

There were no servants, and no master or wife. When he woke up, it was still daytime. He was in the main house where Zhou Xue was lying just now. After walking around for a couple of times, he found Liu Xue, the bride in wedding dress, wandering around.

Liu Xue seemed to be unconscious, and she was not bothered by floating around. He watched from a distance and did not provoke her. It was not until night fell that she returned to the main room to lie down as if she was used to it.

Besides her, there is another lunatic who looks like a human being in the mansion. The lunatic's hair is half long and tied behind his head. He wears this mask. To be honest, with that temperament, at first glance, Zhao Yijiu thought It's Yu Xing.

He wanted to meet up, but after being discovered by the lunatic, he realized that it was not Yu Xing—because the first thing the lunatic said to him was "Huh? Young Master Fang seems to be different today."

Afterwards, they started a chase.

The lunatic had a great time playing, the knife in his hand was shining coldly, but he was probably tired later, and finally gave up looking for the bridegroom played by Zhao Yijiu, so Zhao Yijiu had time to search for clues.

Because this is a shady mansion in the prosperous period——

This means that many clues that did not appear in the first stage can be found here.

He first confirmed the surname of the rich man through the genealogy, collected the incomplete identity information, and then collected some textual information to make sure that there were no other people or ghosts in the house. The absurd deduction system finally gave his more detailed tasks.

[From midnight to one o'clock, Zhou Xue will enter this place, covering Liu Xue's identity, please protect her. 】

Only one hour.

Zhao Yijiu only saw Liu Xue and the lunatic in Fangfu, and he was sure that these two were not Zhao Ruru and Yu Xing, so he realized that he was the "only one" for this stage of the task.

The time limit for protecting Zhou Xue is three days, and he only needs to undertake the task for one hour on the first day, which shows that in the outside world, Yu Xing and Zhao Ruru are carrying out the task in another way.

And he, his hour, will not be easier than the twelve hours of the two teammates.

According to his identity information, he knew that he was playing the young master of the Fang family in Zhou Xue's dream, but he didn't know what would happen if Zhou Xue died in the dream, so he could only protect Zhou Xue from being caught by a lunatic as in reality.

"Where is Fangfu...?" Zhou Xue was a little at a loss, she had never heard this word before.

And when she heard "Fang", Fang Xing's face appeared in her mind uncontrollably.

In fact, think about it, Fang Xing looks a little bit like the person who wanted to kill her...?I don't know if it's an illusion.

"Fang Mansion is Fang Mansion," Zhao Yijiu listened attentively to the movement around him, while watching the countdown given by the system, "It's your dream, I don't know."

"Eh!?" Zhou Xue was really shocked, "Do you know this is my dream? No, no, no, this is not important anymore. Do you know the identity of that person just now?"

"This person has no name, and everyone in the house calls him Master." This was confirmed by Zhao Yijiu through the clues he found. His eyes were cold and he said in his heart. It was not mentioned in the first stage.

"He was invited by my mother after my death. It is said that he is very capable, and he came up with the whole dirty idea."

Zhao Yijiu's requirement for acting is that he must play Young Master Fang well, including in Zhou Xue's dream, he is a "ghost" who is clearly aware of his situation.

Sure enough, although Zhou Xue knew very well that no living person would really appear in her dream, she still shuddered.
