Chapter 23: .Kiritsuki Station

"It's not that I said you Linyou."
Before leaving the house, Jian Mingjia gritted her teeth and sighed.
"It's another bet that hastily, and now you are acting alone, are you sure there is no problem?"
"An La An La," Lin You waved his hand disapprovingly, "You still don't understand me? I must be fine here. Just pay more attention to you."
In Jian Mingjia's suspicious eyes, she unceremoniously pushed the other person out of the door, but Geng Qinghe on the side consciously followed, and he glanced at her again with a little hesitation.
"Sister Yu, although it's not my turn to say--"
"Then needless to say." Lin You was amused by Geng Qinghe who was obviously choking, she said, "Okay, I know what you mean, but leave the candles for Mary Xiao-you hurry up and look for it. See if there are other props."
Just as toothbrushes appear in the gaps between theater seats, special channels may be refreshed in hidden and unreasonable places.
The bet between her and Mary Shaw is about 24 hours. According to the experience of the lanky ghost, once the dust settles, it will be counted as a dungeon clearance, and there will be no chance to act again.
They had returned from the theater to the house where she first "inherited". She was the only one left in the room. Lin You closed the door and walked back to the living room.
It was afternoon in this small town, and most of the night in the theater passed, and the sky was white again.
At four o'clock in the morning, the sky will be bright, and the living room will be brightly illuminated. But the moment Lin You stepped in, she suddenly felt the chandelier flashing above her head.
The light bulb flashed back and forth at a strange frequency, in less than three seconds, and the entire living room was plunged into darkness.
Lin You calmly looked up and swept around.
There was a lot of white cloth on the sofa, and the cloth was stuffed bulgingly.
After thinking for a while, she stepped forward and leaned down, but just as her fingertips passed, the thing under the white cloth suddenly violent!
The whole piece of cloth was lifted on Linyou's body head-on, wrapping her tightly.
The more the cloth is entangled, it will make people breathless, and coupled with the darkness in front of them and the fear of the outside world not knowing what is happening, ordinary people will inevitably panic and shout.
However, Linyou is no ordinary person.
Looking back on this matter, you can go to interview the woman and the lanky ghost between the interviews, but Mary Shaw obviously has no chance to have a long conversation with them.
The guy who saw her itching with hatred was not only not scared, but also fumbled for a breakthrough in twos or twos, pulled the white cloth down, rubbed it into a ball and grabbed it in his hand.
"Is it fun?" Lin You asked.
With the other hand, she smoothed out the messed bangs.
"I also thought of a way to play," she looked at the guy who was originally under the white cloth-Billy the puppet, with a smile, "Do you want to experience it?"
Just ask politely, she didn't intend to hear the answer.
Lin You picked up Billy's collar and wrapped it into a ball indiscriminately with the big white cloth. Carrying the package, she opened the balcony door and stretched her arm forward.
A beautiful parabola was drawn in the air.
The balcony door closed again crisply, and Lin You patted the non-existent ash.
Mary Shaw, who was attached to Billy and fell straight into the bushes: "..."
by.
She didn't give up on this, making Linyou fully realize what perseverance is when she comes back again and again.
But people will be immune. Later, she passed by the puppet whose eyeballs were spinning around on the chair, almost yawning and wearing sunglasses turned out from the bedside table.
The sun turned to noon, and the two of Jian Mingjia came back and saw the pair of sunglasses that had been frustrated and dropped to the ground.
"...What's going on?" she said blankly.
"It's not a big deal." Lin You didn't care. "Have you found something?"
Jian Mingjia sighed with arms akimbo.
Mary Shaw’s hatred was concentrated on one person, and they both had a lot of convenience in their actions, but that didn’t mean there was gain.
"Looking around west of town," she spread her hands, "nothing."
Lin You: "Nothing?"
Before they could answer, the three of them heard a noise from above at the same time.
Accompanied by the faint opening and closing sound, the puppet's puffed cheek face slowly protruded from behind the cabinet door, stretched and transformed into human facial features
With a "clam", Lin You didn't have any fluctuations in her heart. She didn't even look at it. She raised her hand and pressed it up, blocking Mary Xiao's face against the cabinet door.
Jian Mingjia: "………………"
Geng Qinghe: "………………"
Hearing roars and struggling sounds full of anger and unwillingness, he swallowed silently.
The boss is really cruel.
"It's a pity," the person concerned continued the topic just now if nothing had happened, "I thought I could find another useful one."
"It's not bad that you can get a B-level copy, otherwise special items are so scarce."
"...By the way," Jian Mingjia was silent for a few seconds before screaming at the cabinet that was still shaking violently, "It doesn't matter?"
Lin You smiled kindly.
"of course."
She is really as stable as Mount Tai.
Although after experiencing the abruptness of the day, something appeared to torment people's nerves, and when it turned dark, Lin You was not afraid.
The two went to the east to try their luck again. She leaned on the bed in the bedroom and pinched the watch, guessing that the time was almost up.
She didn't care at all, she didn't light up the light at all, and the room was dark, but she saw the curtain move.
……Ok?
Lin You concentrated calmly.
It seems that someone is going to make a big move.
The doors and windows in the room were closed tightly, but the gauze curtains were silent. When it floated again and slowly fell, there was a figure on the empty chair by the window.
"It" is about the size of a child, but if the eyes adapt to the darkness, it can be seen clearly. It is a shrunken corpse that has also been made into a puppet. The eyelids were nowhere to be seen, leaving two round eyes staring here.
His lips were rotten, and a few teeth could be seen in his wide open mouth.
A pair of skinny hands passed under the armpits of the corpse, and slowly raised "it" to a level with him.
Something passed through the puppet's head from behind, sticking out of "it"'s mouth.
It's the tongue-a piece of tongue torn from different victims is spliced ​​together into a long one.
You can also see the traces of their fitting, with a disgusting rubbing sound, leaning forward.
Lin You sitting in front: "..."
"If you think you have too much tongue," she turned the SCP-063 that Geng Qinghe had forced into a flower with her fingers, "I don't mind helping you solve this little trouble."
The tongue stopped.
"You should have experienced its effects firsthand." Lin You said with a smile.
After all, the puppet that disappeared after being pierced by it is also one of the clones.
Mary Shaw...
Mary Shaw shut up bitterly.
"Why are you—" She hissed from her teeth.
"Yeah, I'm so angry, why don't I call it?" Lin You's mood is much better than that of Mary Xiao, who is passing by, "but it's all small problems-look, it's time."
The dial unbiasedly coincides with the position of the day earlier.
"Come on, I'm willing to bet."
She said: "You said it doesn't matter, so since I won—"
"From today, you and your puppets will belong to me."
Mary Shaw: "……………………"
Her face turned blue.

[Congratulations, the whole story guide of the B-level dungeon "Puppet House" is complete. 】
[Your performance in this copy is judged as -S. 】
【Name: Mary Shaw】
【Card Number: 020】
【Level: SR】
[Note: A very paranoid ventriloquist, crazy enough to transform himself and others into puppets. I have a long tongue because I tear off someone’s tongue and take it for myself. For unknown reasons, I hate spicy, hate spicy, and hate spicy! ! ! 】
The initiator of the "unknown reason": "..."
Look at this repeated emphasis and exclamation mark, it seems really annoying.
"Suddenly cleared," Geng Qinghe, who also returned to his main interface, was a little caught off guard for a while, "I almost didn't react."
"Because it's time."
Lin You proudly said: "Another SR card is here."
And it's more than this--
She looked at her data column, the S-level evaluation of the three cooperation modes was taken down, and the professional level had risen to two.
The most direct manifestation is that the unlocked card slots have been expanded from ten to twenty-five, and other skill changes have to be explored in the copy.
"We got nothing here. We didn't have anything to do with it." Jian Mingjia paused, "Hey wait, look, there is an announcement. Time is when we are in this book."
"It seems to say that since the closed beta until now, no one has been able to match the A-level book..." she concluded.
"So the official is considering the issue of balance. It will select one hundred players closest to the A-level through system scores, and then 50 ordinary players. How many A-level dungeons will everyone participate in the test?"
"...I'm sure I won't be able to draw 50 for hundreds of thousands of miles." Geng Qinghe said quietly, "Actually, I think if they wait, Sister Pomelo will be ranked A."
Lin You: "Um..."
"I got it," she said.
Jian Mingjia: "Huh???"
"When you said, I remembered to look at the mailbox," I visited the card and the illustrated book before, and didn't pay attention to the exclamation mark on the other side, "I received the invitation letter."
Just when it left the copy.
As one of the hundred players.
Geng Qinghe’s previous evaluation was too low and he had not yet discovered his career. Jian Mingjia was busy doing an internship and played once yesterday.
But she didn't play for long by herself. Lin You guessed that maybe it was because she got two S evaluations in the B-level book.
She clicked on the attachment of the email, and suddenly there was something in her hand.
It's a thin envelope.
The seal of the envelope was neat, Linyou easily opened it and took out the letter paper inside.
Only four words were written on it.
-Kisaragi Station.
