Chapter 1815: Vulgar Fear (Twenty-three)

The murder scene deep in the darkness is no longer there.

There was a wardrobe, a full-length mirror, a single bed, and no TV. It was undoubtedly a female bedroom.

As for why it is so bold to assume gender?

Simple, the feel of the hair on that struggling head was so familiar - Salma.

If my guess is correct, I might have broken into her house.

The feedback from my hands was very clear at this moment. I was not pressing the back of my head but my mouth.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a scene where someone is caught trespassing into a private house and has to quickly cover his mouth to avoid being heard by others.

I have to say that the character setting in the script for myself is becoming more and more excessive.

As for why we are not surprised but happy instead when faced with this situation?

First of all, with the experience of many previous transitions, when the light suddenly changed and even the "corpse" moved, Fu Qian's first reaction was not that it was haunted or something, but that the scene was changing.

Secondly, this was exactly the result he expected.

……

Placing the note under the corpse's head was not some performance art, but a test with a clear purpose.

Originally, after some exploration, the truth about Twilight School had been uncovered.

The culprit who fell from the building has undoubtedly been identified, and his identity is yet to be confirmed.

However, as I opened my notes, everything had another explanation.

By the end, the questions and answers she asked herself were almost unrecognizable, and every stroke seemed to be piecing together another Eva beneath her calm appearance.

Brutal, insane, and at one point, with such a look, he thrust the sharp blade into Salma's chest.

At the beginning of the script, he saw himself back on the fourth floor, and someone came back and pulled him away.

In addition to being kind enough to take herself out of danger, Eva's action seemed to have another explanation -

After a conflict, she finally calmed down and chose to leave quickly, but she met her uninvited guest on the way.

Not understanding why she was here, she chose to play the role of a victim frightened by a supernatural event.

Unfortunately, this move met its match.

Seeing that she also turned a blind eye, was neither afraid nor ran away, and even went back upstairs, she finally couldn't help but rush back and extended a "saving hand" to herself, thus preventing the scene in the bathroom from being discovered too quickly.

He then told a supernatural story and started his escape journey.

Then, due to his own incompetence, he failed to open the iron gate and had to go around the building to find another way.

As a result, in the process, I ran into more strange characters.

For example, Joshua who died had two assistants.

And it was obvious that Eva didn't really think of them as ghosts as she appeared to.

The fact that she followed me so quickly instead of running away after I left the utility room reflected this point to a certain extent.

She was more concerned about how things were going to develop than getting to a safe place as quickly as possible.

The follow-up was very simple. By some strange coincidence, all the blame was put on Wen, and the truth was revealed.

For Eva, it was a happy ending that she had never dared to imagine.

Of course, Wen is not absolutely innocent. Before the three people went downstairs, he summarized the "truth" from their perspective. Except for the initial killing of Salma to help Eva take the blame, it is likely that he did the rest, including attacking Joshua, hiding the body, and even cutting Salma's face.

Of course, the last one is not so certain. After Eva calmed down, her disgust for Salma became even stronger, and she continued to scratch her face. And Wen had extreme resentment towards his girlfriend for some reason. After seeing her tragic death, it is possible that he was not sad at all and even cruelly stabbed her to death.

And this is exactly the essence of what I want to say - from the first script, what I seem to be facing is the superposition of many "possibilities".

At the party, it might be a prank against you, or they might really want your help.

Inside the old house, was the jellyfish vampire deceiving himself? Did Wen leave or not?

After realizing this, Fu Qian finally had a guess about the "correct" way to complete the script - is it possible that there is actually no real truth?

All you need to do is match up the "possibilities" in each script, just like putting together the same-colored sides of a Rubik's Cube.

……

What would have happened if you hadn't taken the notes out of your bag and had just left the building?
Since the "truth" has not been uncovered, won't the script change?

I’m afraid not.

Don’t forget that at the end of The Old House, Wen’s true whereabouts have not been confirmed.

Fu Qian’s understanding of this is that after coming into contact with the basic elements of each copy, the guided plot must be consistent and there must be no conflicts.

For example, suppose the last vampire in the ancient house actually deceived himself, and Wen did not escape, but fell into a mechanism in the house and died without himself noticing. Then the one who fell out of the window and died just now could be him, and the mission would not fail.

But if the house had not collapsed at that time, and I had been able to find Wen's body after patiently searching, then Wen would never have fallen out of the window just now.

In other words, continuously stirring up trouble to force people out will directly lead to mission failure.

A simpler example is that if at the very beginning of the mission, when you first meet Eva at the party, you directly draw your knife and slit her throat, then she must never appear again in the script after that.

And considering that for something like Twilight School, she should be a core element of the script, so the most likely result is that the mission will be directly restarted.

In a nutshell, it's like I'm picking out a set of logically self-consistent stories from a bunch of stories, each with multiple versions, and binding them together.

Of course, this is essentially a brainstorming exercise by the taskmaster, and there is not enough evidence to prove it.

So with this idea in mind, a series of tests followed.

First of all, he did not leave with the three people, and the script showed that there was no ending.

Even after I opened my notes and learned another truth, I still didn't understand.

At the end, the evidence of the real murderer is placed under the victim's head, so that the police who follow up will almost certainly find it, and then the script ends.

Fu Qian’s understanding of this is that the reason why the story can be concluded without leaving the building is because the act of putting notes has eliminated other possibilities in the script.

That is to say, it directly locks in the ending of redressing the injustice.

……

The "correct" method seems to have been found.

Although the situation doesn't look good now.

"Salma?"

The victim was obviously not the only one in the house.

While I was struggling, I heard doubtful voices coming from outside. It seemed that someone had noticed the movement and even the door handle was being turned.

"Wen is missing."

He took a step forward and held the door with his back, then spoke in a low voice.
