After I traveled through the book, I became an NPC in a horror novel

Soon the players gathered around.

David: "I'm fine. I'll go. This box sounds heavy."

John: “I guess it’s solid.”

Yang Guang struggled out of Anthony's arms somewhat awkwardly, "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't get hit."

Then he and the other players approached and studied the box, while Anthony stood there without moving.

Anthony felt the soft and warm body in his arms. The furry hair accidentally rubbed against the skin exposed at his collar, which made him feel a little itchy. There was also a sweet smell on the hair, probably because of his mother's shampoo that he used by mistake, which was tainted with a sweet fragrance.

"Anthony, come here quickly!"

Anthony came out of his recollection when he heard Yang Guang calling him.

Lisa asked symbolically: "What's in this wooden box?"

But in fact, the players already know that this is the sealed cursed box.

Yang Guang looked at the box whose wood was somewhat loose after it fell, and pulled out a wooden stick: "It can be opened."

The players immediately went up to dismantle it violently. Anthony squatted beside Yang Guang and stared at his profile.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Yang Guang felt the burning gaze and asked Anthony symbolically. In fact, he was already used to the fact that his boyfriend would stare at him all the time.

Anthony grinned, "It's okay, I just wanted to see you."

Yang Guang couldn't help but reach out and touch Anthony's smiling left eye. Anthony cooperated and closed that eye, letting Yang Guang's finger fall on his eyelid.

Yang Guang was amused by Anthony's submissive attitude and turned to look at the box.

After unpacking the boxes, the player stared at them for an unknown amount of time: "..."

Yang Guang turned around suddenly: "..."

Emma: "Well... this... uh... we opened this wooden box, but there is another layer inside, so I want to ask if we can open it."

Inside the wooden box was a cube made of red bricks. The player, who already knew what was inside, thought it would be polite to ask Anthony's opinion before dismantling it. After all, it was something from his family. But who knew that he would happen to see the two of them flirting.

Anthony blushed slightly: "Sure."

After getting the affirmation, the players immediately started to use various methods to break the bricks, and no one even looked at Anthony.

Yang Guang: “…”

It was so embarrassing. He had never felt so awkward looking into the eyes of someone before.

While Yang Guang was still immersed in a sea of ​​embarrassment, the players had already forcibly broken the red bricks, revealing the black box inside.

Anthony picked up the box, and they went downstairs to the living room where ribbons and balloons were hung on the walls and wine bottles were placed randomly on the table.

Yang Guang and John picked up the wine bottles on the table in the living room and put them on the floor, leaving some space for the black box.

The entire box is black and gray with no scratches on it. The design of the entire box is classic and simple, a bit like a lady's jewelry box.

Lisa looked at Emma and then at David.

Although they, as players, have the script in their hands, they actually don’t know what is in the box. They only know that this ominous box is cursed.

Under the urging gazes of the crowd, Anthony sat in the middle of the sofa, reached out his hand, unfastened the metal buckle of the box, and slowly opened the lid.

Under everyone's expectant gaze, the contents of the box slowly came into everyone's sight.

Inside the box was a cloth doll. The palm-sized doll was wearing fitted clothes with fine stitching. It had no facial features, but only two black balls made of unknown material embedded on the doll's face. It didn't look scary at all, and even looked a little cute if you looked closely.

The living room was silent, no one spoke.

Lisa: “Um…”

Emma: “Uh…”

David: “This…”

Even Yang Guang couldn't help but cast his eyes on Anthony.

Is this the cursed box? There are no broken fingers or ears in it like in the movies, nor any strange ornaments, but only a doll that is not scary at all?

Anthony scratched his head as if he had never expected this. He seemed a little sorry. It was a bit disappointing that he had gone through so much effort to find this thing.

But the players would not just check it superficially. Lisa received looks from other players and asked Anthony: "Can we pick this up and take a look?"

Anthony said indifferently: "You are welcome."

So John cautiously took the doll out of the box, looked at it carefully, and talked to other players: "What are these eyes made of..."

As he spoke, he pinched it with his hands.

Then John's expression became serious.

"There's something in there."

Hearing this, everyone looked over, including Anthony.

After thinking for a moment, Anthony pursed his lips and uttered a word: "Demolish."

Hearing this, the players found a pair of scissors and put a piece of white cloth under the doll, which they found from somewhere. There were some things drawn on it that Yang Guang couldn't understand.

This is a prop, Yang Guang saw it at a glance, but he didn't say anything. He just watched the players quietly as if performing surgery, looking at the doll in the middle seriously.

"Then I'll take it down."

John greeted them and began to remove the doll from the seams on its back. The cloth was vulnerable to the scissors, but the players still moved slowly for fear of damaging the items inside.

The white cloth was pulled apart, revealing the red cotton inside. Normal cotton is white, but the cotton in this doll is red. The players looked at each other warily, put on gloves and pulled the cotton apart, revealing what was actually stored in the box.

tooth.

I can't count how many teeth there are.

"hiss…"

Some people couldn't help but develop trypophobia, and Yang Guang was one of them.

The players didn't pay attention to Anthony and Yang Guang. After cleaning out the teeth, they placed them on the props they had taken out and arranged them one by one.

Emma: "There are 28 teeth in total, including incisors, canines, premolars and molars. The number of teeth for an adult ranges from 28 to 32. If nothing goes wrong, these teeth are in the same person's mouth."

Hearing Emma's explanation, Yang Guang couldn't help but feel a little toothache.

"What's wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Anthony noticed the changing expression on Yang Guang's face and asked with concern.

Yang Guang shook his head and said, "No, I just think if these teeth belong to the same person, it would be so painful to lose all the teeth."

Anthony seemed to be thinking about something. He picked up an unfinished bottle of wine on the ground and took a sip: "It will hurt a lot."

After the players on one side repacked the pile of things, they sent Lisa to go through the plot with Anthony again.

Lisa: "Well... these things are so scary. Let's call the police and let them investigate the owner of these teeth."

The remaining players nodded quickly. Investigating was one thing, but having this thing in their hands in case something happened would be another matter entirely.

Anthony agreed and picked up the box on the table, wanting to put the pile of disassembled dolls into the box.

"Hey, wait."

Anthony seemed to have seen something, and he lifted the box and looked at the bottom of the box. "It seems there are words underneath this."

Anthony raised his arm, identified the marks on the box, and read softly:

"Lucca forest."

Lucca Forest.
