There's definitely something wrong with this script.

Chapter 459 What do you want from me
Qiming Orphanage is a huge manor, a three-story building in the ancient European style, with a vast courtyard and lawn at the front and back.

Outside the orphanage is a spacious tree-lined path. The autumn wind is bleak and there are thousands of dark clouds. The desolate atmosphere sets off the manor shrouded in darkness.

Six people stood at the rusted iron gate.

Judging from their attire, their occupations are probably a reporter, a photographer, two social workers, and a couple.

Even though the building in front of them didn't look like normal people lived there, they didn't turn their heads and leave.

Maybe there are some reasons why you have to go in.

[Submission [-]: Enter the Qiming Orphanage. 】

The female reporter looked at the cold, lonely, desolate, dilapidated, and lifeless orphanage in front of her, then put on her gloves, stepped forward, and took out a booklet from the open mailbox at the entrance of the orphanage.

"Qi Ming Shan Tang Visiting Handbook".

1. Please do not visit Qiming Orphanage unless necessary.

2. If you have to go in and visit, do not try to enter the orphanage by other means, please press the doorbell by walking through the main entrance, and wait for the gate to open before entering.

3. Don't knock, don't shout, don't ring the doorbell.

4. If you have to ring the doorbell, please close your eyes and wait for ten seconds after ringing the doorbell. After ten seconds, you can open your eyes and enter the Qiming Orphanage.

……

This booklet, the size of an ordinary workbook, has at least seven or eight pages.

Seven or eight pages are full of incomprehensible and even contradictory rules.

The female reporter briefly scanned the rules, then turned her head to look at the other people behind her who were also reading the visiting manual, and tried to force a smile: "How about we divide into groups before going in, two by two?"

If there are many side tasks, it means that this may be a mechanism book, and the mechanism book may require cooperation in some cases.

When the couple heard the words, the woman stroked her hair and said, "What's the point of this, just your acquaintances and our acquaintances."

The others glanced at each other, but had no opinion.

Not only is the occupational distribution very even, the six of them are evenly distributed in terms of gender.

Three men and three women, a female reporter and a male photographer, two social workers, a male and a female, and finally a couple. This lineup really saves the effort of regrouping, and also saves disputes.

"Then now..."

The female reporter glanced at a few people, and motioned to the gate of the orphanage: "Who wants to ring the doorbell?"

The voice fell, and the scene was silent.

As far as the third rule in this booklet is concerned, none of them want to be the early bird who tried and made mistakes.

"Hey--!"

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the end of the boulevard, and the six of them were startled to look quickly, only to see a middle-aged man in a sky blue police uniform running towards this side.

Seeing him, the six of them were stunned.

And... one more person? !
"Hey, you guys came here so fast. I rushed over as soon as I received the news. I'm so exhausted!" The police assistant ran up to him, and then gasped for breath while holding his knees.

"That...you are?" the female reporter tentatively asked.

"Ah? I run it in the street. Didn't you make an appointment to visit Qiming Shantang? Then I must come along!" The police assistant looked at them strangely.

"Oh! Yes, yes!"

The female reporter quickly agreed, glanced at the people next to her, and then smiled at the police assistant: "Then you open the door?"

The police assistant pointed to the open mailbox next to the gate and said: "What kind of door is it open? Each of you should take a copy of the brochure on it. When you go in and visit it, take a good look at it. Don't violate the rules indiscriminately, otherwise At your own peril!"

When he said the last sentence, the eyes of the middle-aged police assistant suddenly sharpened, and he glanced at the six people with very different expressions.

Seeing this, the female reporter quickly raised the pamphlet in her hand: "I've read it, we've all read it!"

The police assistant glanced at the brochures in their hands, and then walked to the rusty and decayed gate of the manor, raised his hand and put it under the door plate, the red round doorbell rang.

Several people were staring at his movements closely, and at the moment when his hands moved, they suddenly closed their eyes!

"jingle--"

An ethereal, fresh and distant voice sounded, spreading far away one after another, but gradually, the ringtone inexplicably changed to deep and thick, and then slowly to sharp.

It was clearly the same melody, but the voice was completely different, as if something was tearing the vocal cords hysterically, it was extremely ear-piercing and uncomfortable!
Ten seconds was extremely long, yet seemed extremely short. Three different voices circled in everyone's mind.

But they who closed their eyes didn't see it. At that moment, the gate of the manor twisted and spun, turning into a huge eye!

The sclera of that eye is pure black, and there seems to be something intertwined in the black. It is filthy, evil and chaotic. Its pupil is like flowing dirty blood, exuding malice that cannot be spoken, staring straight at the door The few people in front.

After a while, the eye twisted abruptly and disappeared, turning into an open iron gate again.

"Okay, come in."

The voice of the police assistant rang in everyone's ears.

The female reporter's palms were already covered in cold sweat, and her body was trembling slightly.

After hearing that voice that sounded like the sound of heaven, she almost opened her eyes with an impatience, but still tentative and cautious mood.

After seeing the door in front of her, the female reporter's violently heaving chest slowly recovered.

Just now, she felt a terrifying sense of gaze!
That feeling even invaded her mind, a pair of blurry eyes opened in her consciousness, it stared at her "eyes", as if it directly penetrated her heart!

She tried her best to avoid staring at it, but the sight that penetrated into her consciousness was unavoidable!

From all directions, from all perceptions, from all imaginations, were staring at her!

At that moment, she even felt that she was about to be driven crazy by this terrifying gaze that could not hide!
Fortunately, ten seconds is very fast.

The female reporter glanced at the people next to her, and then at her own position. She moved silently, planning to never stand in the middle again!

At this time, the police assistant had already walked into the manor and was standing opposite and looking at them.

This time it was the male photographer who walked in the front and stepped into the manor first, followed by the others, and the couple walked in last.

"Bang!"

After all of them came in, there was a violent knocking sound from the door. When they subconsciously looked back, they saw that the door had been closed again.

What was even more frightening was that the tree-lined path and the outside scenery were gone, replaced by a foggy darkness.

[Submission [-]: Enter the Qiming Orphanage (completed). 】

[Sub-quest [-]: The swing in the yard. 】

The second side mission was spawned.

Sure enough, this is a mechanism book composed of multiple side missions.

Side quests like this basically exist to serve the main quest.

Logically speaking, as long as they follow the branch line, they can basically collect the necessary information, and finally successfully complete the main line task - [Find out the truth about the disappearance of the Qiming Orphanage (submission type)].

Therefore, the second branch task that the system generated now is equivalent to the second clue.

But the problem is that there is also a rule in the visiting manual before entering the door-don't get close to the swing in the yard, don't touch it, let alone sit on it.

What the fucking manual doesn’t allow you to do, the system does it all for you, right?
After combining the player's tasks and the rules of the orphanage, there is only one thing in everyone's mind: What do you want from me? !
