Feng bujue, level 48
“Please select the game mode you wish to join.”
“You’ve chosen solo survival mode (nightmare). Please confirm.”
“Confirmed, generating scenario …”
“Loading, please wait.”!!
At this point, Feng bujue lost control of his body and fell into darkness.
Welcome to Thriller Paradise.” The next second, a deep and calm female voice entered his ears.
“Download Complete. You are currently playing single player survival mode (nightmare).
“A scenario introduction is provided in this mode, and there is a chance of a side or hidden mission and a special world-building appearing.
“Reward for clearing the scenario: a random draw of two puzzle cards.
“The scenario introduction is about to play. The game will start immediately after the play.
Before the voice ended, the introductory cinematic began.
When his vision recovered, the first thing that Feng bujue saw was … A piece of windshield and a pair of wiper that were moving left and right.
At the bottom of the picture, he also saw a pair of big hands holding the steering wheel.
The beginning of a first-person perspective … Brother Jue muttered to himself. Looks like I’ll have to play a certain role again this time …
[Hello, Mr. Dave.] The narration quickly confirmed his speculation.
“Congratulations, you have stood out among the many candidates and received the opportunity for this interview.” The voice-over sounded old, but there was a sense of familiarity in the solemn tone.
Am I driving to the interview? Feng bujue thought.
[As the director of the post office of the town of aotaku, I sincerely hope that you can successfully become one of us.]
“I thought this was silent Hill …” Feng bujue mocked as he looked at the White fog before the car. “The fog in your town is ridiculously thick … Even with the high beam lights on, I can only see five to six meters ahead.”
[Please be sure to arrive at my office before 9 a.m.]
“This interview might take a whole day. I hope you are mentally and physically prepared.”
Hey, hey … Even the interview with the MIB won’t take a whole day, right? brother Jue thought to himself. Are you guys the Earth’s Defense Force with the post office sign?
“The post office is located to the North of the town square. Please don’t be late.”
[Finally, I wish you good luck.]
The opening of the script was not long, so it was over.
In the same second, Feng bujue gained control of his body.
He immediately let go of the accelerator and reduced the speed of the car a little. He then observed the role he was playing through the rearview mirror.
The man called Dave looked like he was in his thirties. He had a common face and clean, short hair. He was dressed in an ordinary, long-sleeved, plaid shirt and a light-colored leather jacket. She was wearing a pair of classic jeans and white sports shoes.
“Um … There’s no wedding ring, and there’s no trace of a ring being worn.” Feng bujue studied the details of ‘himself’ as he read,”from the calluses on his fingers and palm, this person is left-handed …” He then glanced at his right hand, and on his right wrist was a very cheap-looking watch.”A brown leather strap, a normal metal and glass case … Both the front and back of the watch are covered in scratches …” Combined with the calluses on his hands and the thickness of his palm, Dave was most likely a technician in interior design or car repair. Like most people, he would remember to take off his watch when he was working, but he had never considered … The consequences of putting his watch together with keys, change, and other things. Of course … It’s also possible that he has already considered it, but because the watch is cheap, he doesn’t care. ”
Pushing others away when he saw them was a habit of brother Jue. Even though the information he obtained had nothing to do with the progress of the scenario, it was good to pass the time.
“Ah … I think we’re here …” Before Feng bujue could check Dave’s pocket, a bridge appeared in front of them.
There was a large road sign on the side of the bridge, which said “the town of aotaku welcomes you”. There was a stone block beside the road sign, on which was painted the word “40T,” which should refer to the weight limit of the vehicles crossing the bridge.
When brother Jue’s car crossed the bridge, the system voice rang in his ears again.”[Main mission triggered]
“Has the preparation time for the easy opening come to an end?” Feng bujue mumbled to himself.
He didn’t immediately check the mission content. Instead, he held the steering wheel tightly and slowed down again, paying close attention to everything within his visual range.
After carefully driving for 300 meters, he successfully drove over the bridge and arrived at the entrance of the town.
The asphalt road was interrupted here. The roads inside the town were basically made of stones and soil, and there were fewer cement roads.
“Chi Chi Chi Chi ka ka ka ka ka”
The moment the car left the road, the engine in front of the car … Made a very bad sound. A few seconds later, white smoke came out of it.
“Such precise timing …” Feng bujue smiled wryly.”I must be drunk …”
Since the car had stopped, he sat in the driver’s seat and looked through his belongings.
Dave had a ballpoint pen with a spring in his shirt pocket, and there was a pack of unopened chewing gum in his pocket. There was a wallet in the left pocket of his jeans. In the wallet, there was a membership card of the DART Club, a credit card, a driver’s license, and three two-dollar, four five-dollar, and three twenty-dollar bills, a total of 86-dollar paper notes. In his right pocket, there were seven 25-cent coins and a bunch of keys.
“Hmm … There’s nothing in the pockets of the wallet. It’s clear that he’s already considered the possibility of taking off his jacket at some point.” When Feng bujue was checking his personal belongings, he did not forget to further analyze Dave.”There’s no cigarette on him, and his teeth and fingers don’t look like he’s a smoker …” As he said that, he opened up all the storage space in the car to inspect it. “There are no handkerchiefs, no packaging for junk food, and there are no adult magazines …” He turned to look at the back seat.”There are no paper towels or tickets on the car or on the body, and the cuffs are relatively clean …”
Thinking about that, brother Jue paused for two seconds and then concluded,””He’s completely healthy. He doesn’t even have the common pharyngitis and rhinitis. He had excellent physical fitness, higher intelligence and self-control than the average Caucasian.”A balanced diet, no habit of staying up late, no bad habits … Ha …” He laughed.”There must be a conspiracy to give me such a body that is like an athlete …” He said.
Only then did he call out the game menu.
Unsurprisingly … The skill bar and inventory bar were locked, and the psionic weapon was also in an unusable state.
The main mission in the mission panel also gave brother Jue a sense of danger.[You have been recognized by the ghost postman and become the new postman of the town of aotaku.]
“So, the guy who asked me to come for the interview is a ghost …” Facing this kind of supernatural setting, Feng bujue was already used to it. After he finished reading the mission description, he took Dave’s phone from the car charger.”Hmm…This…Could it be the legendary Nokia 3310 …” He pressed a random button and looked at the date and time on the phone.”December 25th, 2002,8: 25 am … Christmas morning …”
Then, brother Jue unlocked the phone’s keyboard (in the past, phones could usually be unlocked by pressing the star button). He wanted to find as much information as he could. Unfortunately … His phone’s text messages and call records were blank (in the era of traditional phones, many people had the habit of deleting their records after sending or calling), and his “memo” was also empty. There were records in the “phone book,” but they all seemed to be ordinary contacts, such as “dad, mom, Uncle Mark, Aunt Daisy, Williams, Margie,” and so on.
Most importantly … At this time and place, the phone was still “out of service”.
Therefore, even if Feng bujue wanted to make the call, he could not.
“Okay …” Brother Jue only fiddled with it for three minutes before he put the Nokia into the outer pocket of his leather jacket.”At least this thing can be used as a weapon …”
As he spoke, he unbuckled his seat belt and opened the car door …
