It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

The main quest is for players to find out the story hidden under the red brick house.

The higher you go, the more the game likes to cheat players.

Players who fall into the trap and are deceived are the losers selected by the game mechanism.

While everyone was still thinking seriously, Lu Yuanshi lazily stuck to the top of Xiao Huai's head and said, "Little genius, will you come to class later, or should I?"

Xiao Huai's thoughts were instantly brought back to Lu Yuanshi.

He coughed lightly twice. Actually, it was quite interesting to watch Lu Yuan giving lectures.

"You...come on."

Lu Qian raised her eyebrows and smiled, looked at Lu Yuanshi a few more times with an inexplicable meaning, and then left immediately.

----

Without even washing the paint off his hands, Zhang Jucheng came to the table, sat up straight and started working on the questions.

His fingers were still stained with red paint, leaving marks on the paper from time to time.

After seeing Lu Yuanshi and Xiao Huai enter the room, he raised his head slightly and said politely, "Teacher."

"Are your eyes better?" Lu Yuanshi said in a low voice.

Zhang Jucheng's eyes fell on the fingers stained with red paint. "I feel better now. Mother has cut some fruit. Teachers, please eat first."

He pointed to a perfectly cut fruit plate on the side. Xiao Huai could smell the medicinal scent coming from the fruit plate without even getting close.

Doesn’t Zhao Li know that his own children will also eat the fruits in the fruit bowl?

Xiao Huai ate a piece of cut apple and frowned slightly after eating it.

Another tranquilizer.

Zhang Jucheng ate the fruit in the fruit bowl as if nothing had happened, as if he had long been accustomed to it.

When Lu Yuanshi was discussing the topic with Zhang Jucheng, Zhang Jucheng suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Xiao Huai.

"Teacher, can you give me back my book?"

There was no fluctuation in the tone of voice, like a puppet without a soul.

Xiao Huai noticed that the books in Zhang Jucheng's room were not arranged randomly, but were carefully organized.

The books on each row of bookshelves are precisely arranged by letters and numbers, and even the authors' names are arranged in alphabetical order.

The room was spotlessly clean, with every item placed where it should be.

Originally, this kind of thing was very common, but the longer Xiao Huai stayed in the room, the more he felt——

Zhang Jucheng's obsessive-compulsive disorder is very serious.

Xiao Huai took away the fairy tale book. It might not be obvious on the huge wall of books, but Zhang Jucheng noticed it.

Xiao Huai turned to look at him and put the book back.

After putting it back, Zhang Jucheng obviously felt relieved.

He picked up the pen to write the next question, but Xiao Huai had already come to his side.

"Do you like fairy tales?"

His voice reached his ears, and Zhang Jucheng raised his eyelids slightly, "I like it."

Zhang Jucheng and Xiao Huai looked at each other and had no intention of lying.

"Then let me tell you a fairy tale, okay?"

At Zhang Jucheng's age, he is unlikely to want to listen to an adult telling him fairy tales, but his expression is slightly excited.

Nodding: "Okay."

"Have you ever heard the story of Sleeping Beauty?"

After Xiao Huai finished speaking, Lu Yuanshi supported his chin and looked at Xiao Huai quietly.

If this wasn't a horror game, how could such tranquility and gentleness not make people nostalgic?

A breeze blew by, carrying with it the cool scent of rain. The light and shadow cast a hazy glow on Xiao Huai's face as his lips and teeth moved slightly.

Lu Yuanshi's fingers twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Sleeping Beauty is a well-known story in real life, but not in the gaming world.

Zhang Jucheng shook his head: "No."

Just like the story of "Good Mother", Xiao Huai had never heard of it, and he had never heard of the story of Sleeping Beauty either.

Xiao Huai did not use any emotion when telling fairy tales. He just told the stories casually in the simplest way.

He told Zhang Jucheng that once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess who was cast under a spell by a wizard and was locked in a castle, where she never woke up.

Only the prince's affectionate kiss can wake the princess up.

Many years later, a prince finally came to the castle and tried to rescue the princess.

This is the key point in the story of Sleeping Beauty. Countless people expect the princess to live a happy life with the prince after waking up.

But Xiao Huai stopped here. He met Zhang Jucheng's curious gaze, and there was an unfathomable light between his eyebrows.

"How do you think the story will unfold?"

Zhang Jucheng thought for a moment and said calmly, "The prince will be killed by the princess."

Xiao Huai didn't ask him why, but his silence signaled Zhang Jucheng to continue.

Zhang Jucheng said slowly: "You said that the protagonist in the story is a princess who has been praised all her life. She is a beautiful woman, but the prince only comes to rescue the princess many years later.

She will kill the prince because she is old and ugly, while the prince is in his prime. The princess will not allow the prince to change his heart, so she will kill him.

After hearing this, Xiao Huai chuckled, "What an interesting ending."

Zhang Jucheng understood Xiao Huai's implication, "Isn't this the ending?"

“There is never only one ending.”

Xiao Huai moved slightly closer to Zhang Jucheng and added, "Isn't it?"

Zhang Jucheng's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he was about to be sucked into his red eyes.

He did not answer Xiao Huai's question, but suddenly said:

"Teacher, you have beautiful eyes."

Xiao Huai was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "Thank you."

"Teacher is a little hungry. It's okay for you to study on your own." Xiao Huai stood up and looked at Lu Yuanshi.

Zhang Jucheng's eyes quickly wandered between the two of them and nodded: "Of course."

Lu Yuanshi understood and quietly came to Xiao Huai's side, skillfully making an expression as if he wanted to eat something.

Xiao Huai smiled slightly and tilted his head: "Glutinous rice dumplings."

"it is good."

----

Only the sound of their footsteps echoed in the corridor.

Xiao Huai fell into deep thought. Judging from the current intelligence and clues, Zhang Jucheng was even stranger than Zhao Li.

Xiao Huai left the ending of the fairy tale to Zhang Jucheng to define.

He gives a dark fairy tale ending.

His personality is very analytical, a perfectionist, obsessive-compulsive, and...

Criminal Minds.

However, further observation is needed to find out what exactly is wrong with him.

The kitchen is on the first floor. When you open the refrigerator, you will see all kinds of ingredients neatly arranged inside.

Like his study, it was too tidy.

Just when Lu Yuanshi was about to cook, the kitchen light suddenly flickered a few times, followed by a crackling sound of electricity.

There seems to be something wrong with the circuit breaker.

In the game, the circuit breaker won't malfunction unless something happens.

The rain outside was getting heavier.

At this moment, the two heard footsteps.
