Creating a zombie in a mountain village terrifies players worldwide.

Chapter 14 even has a hidden ending!

In an instant, the curiosity of many players who had completed the game was aroused.

Their inherent stubbornness made them unwilling to admit defeat, so they flocked to the game, each one putting in their best effort, determined to escape successfully.

But the result was failure after failure, and he could never escape the clutches of the female ghost.

No matter how many methods you try, as soon as you open the door, you will be instantly killed by the female ghost.

This initially caused some players to lose their nerve, leading them to flood the disaster community with posts and complaints.

[Byd, there's no escaping this game, I'm telling you! Who agrees? Who disagrees?]

I'm 100% sure! This game absolutely didn't have an escape ending. Disagree? Let's argue!

[I tried all afternoon and couldn't get out, so there's definitely no way to escape the ending. Even if there were, it would be new content added later, not currently.]

[Can any experts analyze this? Is it necessary to use any special items or at a specific time?]

[Stop trying, guys. I've recorded and analyzed it; the female ghost's appearance detection is ridiculously fast. This game is currently a dead end.]

The numerous failures led players who had completed the game to post their opinions online, declaring that the escape from the apartment was a complete fabrication and did not exist.

However, many people still left comments in the game download page, asking when the official version would be released, and wondering if the ending line of the game could really help players escape the apartment.

of course.

Developer O5 didn't reply to a single message.

The personal profile section only has one line:

"We are currently in seclusion, focusing entirely on game development. Please stay tuned for future updates."

The players had no choice but to wait patiently.

Or they might search for other horror games, hoping to find a substitute.

However, after searching around, I found that they were all poorly made junk.

Akaishi Games is purely a cash grab that will then disappear.

The horror games among them are the absolute worst of the worst.

Just looking at the cover and description makes me completely lose the desire to play it.

With no other options, players had no choice but to return to the old games they used to play.

Or continue playing the VHS tapes of "The Haunted Village".

However, that very evening, another trending post suddenly appeared on the disaster relief community.

The title is simple and direct:
[The true ending of "The Mysterious Videotape" is here! The hidden fourth ending revealed! Chu Renmei truly suffers.]

The title left players completely bewildered.

What? This game has a fourth ending?

Or is this the real ending?
Upon seeing this, players immediately thought of the line spoken at the end of the game.

—'The player could have escaped the apartment.'

So, in this fourth ending, you can escape?

Holy crap! This game is amazing!
The developers are truly amazing; they managed to cram four endings into such a small file? And they even hid one of them so no one would discover it?
Also, what does "楚人美真惨" mean?
That female ghost who kills instantly upon first sight and chases people until their souls are scattered? She's miserable?
I was so numb from being chased by her! She gave me nothing but terror!

Tragic? I'd like to see just how tragic it is.

Could it be that we can dig up the reason why she was killed by the villagers back then?

So, players whose curiosity was piqued clicked on the post to see what was going on.

The original poster said this:
"It's been a long time since I've played such an exciting horror game. I played through it four times, grinding for 10 hours straight, and finally managed to collect everything (probably)."

"But it also allowed me to discover plot points and truths I had never seen before!" "In the game, all we know is that the female ghost was named Chu Renmei in her previous life, and that she was killed by the villagers of Huangshan Village. Her husband even personally called the police."

"But we don't know why the female ghost was killed."

"Now I finally understand."

"Because I found several pages of Chu Renmei's diary in the game!"

"Next, I'll post a few diary entries with background information, and everyone will understand at a glance."

"In the end, the true ending is also quite tragic, even more realistic than the original three endings."

Seeing this, the players were a little confused.

Is the real ending also tragic?
Wait, does that mean the protagonist didn't escape in this fourth ending either?
Also, the first three endings are already tragic enough, since the people are gone and they've become ghosts.

Could the true ending, already tragic, also be "realistic"?
Then I really need to take a good look.

So, out of curiosity, the players scrolled through the post and looked at the screenshots of the diary entries posted by the original poster.

—Chu Renmei's Diary #1
March 28th, 1916 (the fifth year of the Republic of China), rain.

Today, Wan Tian told me something with a worried look on his face.

He became addicted to opium.
All the money in the house has been spent.
The money I earned from performing, the money he earned from teaching, and the savings we accumulated over two years of marriage—all gone now.
He was filled with remorse. He knelt before me, crying, and said he would never touch such things again. He swore an oath and asked me to believe him.

He only asked me to keep this secret, otherwise it would affect his status as a schoolteacher.

I agreed.
Because we still have a future.

—Chu Renmei's Diary #3
April of the fifth year of the Republic of China, rain.

Just now, in the dead of night, three men in black broke into our house, tied Wan Tian up from the bed, and said they wanted to take one of his fingers.

It turned out that he had not only squandered all the family's money, but had also borrowed money from outside.
Now that the seven-day deadline has passed, they came to collect the debt from Wantian under the cover of night, totaling 300 silver dollars.

Because they have no money, they'll take one of his legs.
I only now realize how serious the situation is, and I look at my husband in disbelief.
Why did that highly respected schoolteacher become so ruined by opium?
I pleaded with the men to give me a few more days.

They agreed.

Now, we need to think of a solution.
—Chu Renmei's Diary #5
April 4th, 1916 (5th year of the Republic of China), rain.

Through the introduction of the class leader, I met the person in charge of the "Into My Mirror" drama club.

He also recognized my talent for opera and invited me to join their drama troupe to play a role in "Zhuangzi Tests His Wife".

But
If Wan Tian knew that I, a woman, was acting in a film and showing off my skills in front of the camera, he would feel ashamed and would definitely not accept it.

Because women are not allowed to appear in public, let alone act in front of the camera.
—Chu Renmei's Diary #6
On April 5th, 1916, a torrential rain occurred.

The three men came again and gave us a final deadline.

If they can't repay the money, Wantian will...
Seeing the fear on Wan Tian's face, I already knew what to do.

Even if I am condemned by thousands, I will still take on the responsibilities of a wife for my husband's sake.

—Chu Renmei's Diary #7
On April 9th, 1916, a torrential rain occurred.

Today, Tianqi from the village came to see me.

He said he loved me very much and wanted to give me ten silver dollars to make love to me.

Wan Tian also knew about this, but he remained silent and said nothing.

Seeing the way his eyes darted around, I understood.
Wan Tian's debt collection was so intense that they came to threaten us every few days, causing chaos and unrest in our home.

I have no way to get my wages in the short term, and the debt collectors are threatening Wan Tian's life.

I have no other choice.
We need money
Wan Tian, ​​if only you didn't get involved with that stuff, if only you didn't take on so much debt.
If abandoning morality and dignity can make you reform, give you a bright future, and rid you of your bad habits, then I will.
Then they cut open the robe at the leg.
If the villagers find out, whether it's being drowned in a pig cage or something else, it's all fate.

You are a teacher, I won't implicate you. If we are caught, I will take all the blame.
You've been so good to me these past two years, and now that you're in trouble, it's time for me to repay your kindness.
