Chapter 33 Alice Hell (4) - The Cryer

 At this time, I had just separated from the other deducers, and my first reaction when I heard the knock on the door was that someone was looking for me.

Although the silence in the air made the sound of the door panel a bit abrupt, like a knock on the heart, giving people a hollow feeling, in fact the people in the house were not too defensive.

After all... nothing has happened yet. It is commonly said that he has not accepted the beating from society.

But Yu Xing, who had already felt the malice, was different. He was very sure that the person knocking on the door was not necessarily a human.

Yiqing's words of questioning were blocked. He silently fell from the sky, put his feet on the ground, and turned his head to look out the door with Yu Xing.

In just a few seconds, Yu Xing's mind once again received a prompt prompt that seemed to have self-awareness.

This is the restriction set for Yiqing in Alice Hell.

[It has been detected that there is an unexpected contracted ghost in the "Sheqing Dream" held by the deducer Yu Xing - Sheqing Ghost Yiqing. Yiqing is now subject to the difficulty limit of this deduction]

[Currently, the green-capturing ghost has been closed and all control abilities have been cleared. The aura has been suppressed to the level of the ghosts in this scene. Only the green smoke transformation and dream interference abilities are retained. This is used as a sacrifice to compensate for the lack of the "green-capturing dream" ability ②]

[The information of this deduction has been shared with Yiqing]

Yiqing: "...Haha, it's really an emotionless decision."

Yu Xing: I had expected it.

He took out the Qing Mengjing, not expecting Yiqing to do anything. He just took out his only weapon to defend himself.

Yi Qing could have stayed in the dagger and not come out, but from the last deduction to today, Yu Xing remembered Yi Qing's insistence and deliberately never took out the dagger, causing Yi Qing, who was most afraid of boredom, to stay alone in the dagger.

After waiting for a long time, as soon as he discovered Yu Xing's behavior, he immediately came out to express his dissatisfaction.

As a result, before anything was done, the system poured cold water on me.

However, Yiqing has a very good attitude, and this new world of deduction will surely allow him to see things he has never seen before.

"Dong dong dong."

The knocking on the door continued. Yu Xing approached and touched the door panel. He found that there was a peephole on the door. He just didn't notice it when he chose the room. After entering the room, it was covered by a note written by the nun.

He lifted the note and looked out with one eye without hesitation.

Even if he sees something outside staring at him, he won't be surprised.

Fortunately, things outside did not do this. Through the peephole, Yu Xing could see the corridors and walls with warm tones, and half of the face stained with blood appeared in his sight without any warning.

It seems to be a girl?

This face was magnified by the cat's eye, and Yu Xing could see the other person's oval face, dark and dull eyes, and messy black hair.

The girl is not tall, only about one and a half meters tall. Judging from these descriptions, she seems to be a normal person, but... large areas of dried blood are stuck between her face and hair, staining her pale face.

A layer of blood stained.

Yu Xing shifted his sight and managed to catch a glimpse of a hole as big as half a bowl from the top of the girl's head. It was as if a piece of scalp had been lifted alive, and a small amount of brain tissue was exposed to the air, causing this

The picture is full of impact.

Well, it's more appropriate to use it as a pronoun.

[You discovered the "Cryer", the ghost notice has been updated]

"Dong dong dong."

The girl ghost, who was called the cryer by the system, did not notice that Yu Xing was looking at her through the peephole, but just reached out and knocked on the door for the third time.

"Don't answer." Yiqing reminded him in a low voice. Yu Xing just nodded, watched the girl take back her hand, and then opened her mouth.

The two lips tried to separate, and Yu Xing saw at this moment that the girl's lips had been sewn together with white needlework!

The reason why I hadn't discovered it before was because the white line was soaked in blood and turned red. It was not obvious under the color of the lip itself. Only when it struggled to open its mouth could you see the original trace of white, which was absorbed from the lip flesh.

pull out.

Yu Xing's eyes darkened, and he felt silent sympathy for the girl ghost's experiences during her lifetime.

Because its mouth was gagged, the cryer was unable to make any sound, which did not match its name at all.

After three attempts without knocking on the door, the girl gave up, took a few steps back, turned and walked towards the next door.

Yu Xing lost his vision, and the malice surrounding him receded like a tide.

Faintly, he heard a knock on the door from Huai's room next door. It seemed that the little girl was planning to knock on everyone's door. She should have knocked on the door of the gambler and the hysteria before, but she didn't.

success.

He opened the ghost notice and read the update content.

【Ghost 2: The Cryer】

[Corresponding tourists:???]

[Description/Source: 1. A little girl who looks like fifteen or sixteen years old. Part of her head is missing, her head is bloody, and her lips are sewn up with needlework. 2. She likes to knock on other people’s doors. No one knows who she is yet.

The consequences of opening the door. (Source analysis will be triggered when the corresponding solution prop is found)]

[Attack method/Special ability:???]

[Solution:???]

[Notification progress: 10%]

This ghost was ranked second. To be honest, although I don’t know who the ghost it corresponds to, it is not very strong. It is just a bit scary in appearance and can easily put pressure on the deducers.

As long as the deducer sees its appearance inside the door, the fool will open the door.

Then there are only two possibilities, either, this should be the kind of ghost that the nun said is not strong at the beginning, but will gradually become stronger, or it is the kind of ghost that will be fine if you don't open the door, but will definitely die as long as you open the door -

The more serious the consequences of contact, the harder it is to trigger. This is a common mechanism in horror games.

Yu Xing prefers the first one, because the name of this ghost is the Crier, so its attack method should be related to crying. The way its mouth is sewn up now is probably the weakest state. With these things,

The longer the player stays in the castle, the stronger it will become.

He closed the ghost notification and turned his head to see Yiqing standing there thoughtfully.

"what's on your mind?"

Yi Qing glanced at him, a smile appeared on his face, he took out his fan and shook it: "Nothing, just sighing. After death, appearance is also very important. Why is this girl so unkempt?"

Yu Xing exclaimed: "Your focus is really strange. Well... maybe you guys are not the same kind of ghosts."

In Yi Qing's world, there were blue, red, black, and gray, no matter how strong or weak, they all took on a human appearance on the surface, at least they were clean, and no matter how they died, their injuries were covered up.

And ghosts are ghosts, and people are people.

And... quite particular.

In more horror worlds, the boundaries between ghosts and humans are blurred, and monsters exist, so weird-looking physical ghosts appear.

After sighing, Yu Xing still thought seriously and said: "However, I guess the ghosts in this deduction should all be of a more exotic type. Even if they are linked to the sins of each of us, they will still fit in with the style of the castle on the whole.

In this case, you can roughly guess where the ghost will attack the deducer from."

"Why don't you guess your own first? What will your ghost look like?" Yi Qingpiao sat down on the desk, with a look of curiosity and drama on Qingjun's face.

"I didn't know." Yu Xing didn't leave the door, still listening to the noise outside, and replied by the way, "I... made a lot of mistakes before, one after another, who knows what Alice will do in hell.

Which one should be used? And even if it is used, it still needs to be magically modified. With Alice's style, she will not make it easy for the deducer."

The tormenting tendon jumping machine, the devilish doll with a human head, and the coffee swivel chair that can roast people on the spot are proof of this.

Yiqing smiled and said: "Oh~ Is it really okay to be so honest? Are you not afraid that others will be frightened if they hear it?"

"There is no one else here, only you, a well-informed Da Sheqing, what should I be afraid of?" Yu Xing mocked him and listened attentively.

It must be said that the soundproofing effect of the room provided to them was very good. Counting the time, if the cryer had not left halfway, he should be in the eighth room.

And with Yu Xing's extraordinary hearing, he could no longer hear sounds, which largely prevented others from listening in the corner.

After a while, Yi Qingming clearly didn't move, but said firmly: "It's gone."

Just now, he didn't look through the peephole at all, but he knew that the things outside didn't look very decent.

Yu Xing asked: "Are you...the perception ability of the Green Ghost?"

"Of course, the perception between ghosts is very strong. If they are of equal strength, they can easily distinguish each other's breath. Otherwise, do you think there are so many kinds of ghosts in this castle that won't attack each other?"

Yiqing shook his folding fan as if it were natural.

However, Yu Xing, who was leaning against the door, moved his ears and heard footsteps again.

"Dong dong."

There was another knock on his door.

Fortunately, this time it was not the cryer who returned, but the gambler who had just come out of his room.

"Xing, are you there?"

After Yu Xing confirmed through the cat's eye, Yi Qing also nodded: "It's a real person, you can open the door."

A burst of green smoke drifted past, and the figure of the Green Ghost turned into an illusion and enveloped the dagger. Yu Xing also heard a threat that was not so strong: "Don't take the dagger back."

Yu Xing chuckled and inserted the sheathed dagger into his waistband.

Then he put on the mask and said, "I'm here, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, I'm going to explore the surroundings and ask you if you want to come together. Are you coming, brother?" Across the door, the gambler's friendly northeastern accent continued to penetrate Yu Xing's mind.

Fortunately, Yu opened the door for gamblers.

He looked at the gambler who was slightly shorter than him but much stronger, nodded and said, "Come on, now?"

"Well, do you want to go?"

Yu Xing felt that if he spoke a few more words, his accent would be lost, so he laughed and said, "Well, I'll listen to the seniors."

There are not many things in the room that need attention, so it is better to take advantage of the time before dinner to supplement the map. The gambler's idea coincides with Yu Xing's.

So he went out, closed the door, and looked around.

No one else seems to have any intention of coming out now.

The gambler said: "Maybe it's because I'm afraid that the cryer hasn't gone far. I thought I'd come out later. If you ask me, there's no need. I've done everything like following ghosts."

He pointed in the direction the cryer had left: "Let's go this way and look for the bathroom."

"Well, I think so too." Yu Xing said, "That place should not be far from our room."

When they came, they went up to the third floor from the second staircase in the lobby on the first floor. There was no branch road after that, and they followed a main road to the location of the ten rooms. On the way before, they passed three flower rooms and two flower rooms.

There are also some rooms of unknown significance in the studio, and the bathroom has never been seen.

There is no independent bathroom in the room, but the nun tour guide wrote the bathing time separately on the paper, which must have some meaning.

Therefore, the "bathroom" must be found in advance to avoid any problems if you don't wash up on time later.

"But, aren't you going to call him crazy?" Yu Xing remembered that he was also friendly to the gambler.

The gambler hesitated on this question for a moment, then spread his hands: "...To be honest, I don't think that guy is very happy. I can help him if he needs it later, but now, we can just go and do it.

"

This was said very euphemistically, almost like saying "I don't like him".

Fortunately, Yu nodded and stopped asking, and the two set off, walking along the circular corridor toward the unknown area.

The structure of the third floor seems to mostly adopt a curved structure. Many places seem to be assembled together. The corridor is not completely closed. In some places, the upper meter is a wall connected to the ceiling, and the next meter is a half-person-high fence and empty space.

Swirl the air.

They can see some halls on the second floor or even the first floor from the corridor, and can also see across these halls the windows or corridors on the same floor opposite, so it feels like they are connected in all directions.

After walking for a while, the two arrived at a platform constructed as an observation deck. It was held up in mid-air by two overhead stairs and was empty on all sides. There was a half-floor lowered corridor in front and behind, and on the left was an outer wall of the annex building.

, you can see the windows on the fifth floor, and on the right is the open-air kitchen on the second floor and another corridor on the third floor slightly farther away.

The observation deck is the place with the widest view that Yu Xing has seen so far. There are several lights on it, which are for some reason brighter than elsewhere, and other places around it happen to be designed to be a light-free environment. The kitchen on the second floor is now

The lights were also turned off, and the lighting seemed to rely entirely on the light emitted from the observation deck. It seemed like the observation deck was like a bright target in the dark. Any movement on it could be seen by people from all sides.

This was the only way to move forward. The two of them stepped on it without much hesitation. After going up, they discovered that the fence of the observation deck was made of crystal, which reflected the light, making it even brighter.

The gambler sighed: "This structure is really awesome. In fact, the area of ​​the castle is only about the same size. It looks like it was turned into a maze."

"Well, it's suitable for hiding props, and it's also suitable for chasing battles." Yu Xing put his hands on the crystal railing, and he could vaguely smell an unpleasant smell on the tip of his nose.
