[Comprehensive Yingmei] Really nothing happened

Although the crisis was resolved, Holly knew that at least today (it was the second day) before dawn, it was impossible for her to sleep again.

She simply sat up and reached out to turn on the lamp beside the bed.

Going from absolute darkness to light all of a sudden, it takes a little time for human eyes to adapt.Holly closed her eyes in advance when she pressed the button, and covered her eyes with the other hand by the way, waiting quietly.

The light was warm yellow, but when this subconsciously relaxing light shone on her body, Holly found that her whole body tensed up.

Her mind was full of complicated thoughts, and she didn't know what happened to all the things that happened during this period.

It has to be said that what she experienced during this period may not be experienced by ordinary people in a lifetime.

Monsters, ghosts, haunted houses... These factors are mixed together, like a chessboard where Go, chess and other chess pieces are placed randomly.

She slowly lowered her hands, looked at the white ceiling, and took a deep breath.

……

"How are you resting?" Lauren asked the next morning, after a few people had gathered in the hotel lobby.

Strange to say, they didn't get any better last night. They met at what time the next morning, but they walked into the lobby at about the same time.

"Fine," Jay said.What he said was indeed the real truth.

For a long time, he was investigating the disappearance of his friend Alex. For this reason, he traveled all the places he knew that Alex had been before disappearing, and was involved in the Slenderman incident. Among them, it was stared at.

People who are targeted by Slenderman will have some physical symptoms, such as non-stop coughing, memory loss, and so on.And Jay, also suffered from these situations.Therefore, he has not had a good rest for a long time.

But what troubled him was not only physical pain, but also psychological doubts.

Maybe at the beginning, he would pursue these things because of a momentary curiosity and friendship with Alex, but in the end, there was also a part of the reason for himself.

Those inexplicable amnesia are almost impossible to happen to normal people, but according to his analysis, this kind of thing happened more than once.

He still remembers that in the videotape, Alex was stared at by a vague black figure, and his temper became more irritable because of this, and he even made all kinds of weird behaviors in the videotape.Those things cannot be explained by science.

What exactly happened?I have been to so many places, but it seems that I am not even one step closer to the truth.This fact is indeed quite depressing.

However, since this period of time, although I have encountered some unexplainable situations, it is much better than the previous state of always being in fear.

During that time, although he has no memory, it can be seen from the video tape that the monster also appeared by his side.

Moreover, not only monsters, but also people—people with unknown purposes.

……

"The environment of this place is so good, why don't we go around? By the way, we can see if there is anything special." After breakfast, Holly suggested.

She was really confused about what happened at three o'clock this morning (later she turned on the light and looked at her phone), but she couldn't think of anything just by thinking about it. If she looked around, maybe there would be some clues .

"I think so." Jay agreed.

"I also think it's good, but this place is so big, it may take a long time for us to walk around together, why don't we split up?" Lauren thought for a while and said.

Jay and Holly thought it was okay, Yermungand didn't care about it, and it was decided.

……

As mentioned earlier, the energy needed by Rusty Lake is the blocks extracted from human memory.However, not everyone's memory meets the requirements.It is difficult to find the right candidates.Generally speaking, just two words: follow the fate.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Laura Vanderboom.Yes, it's Laure (Laura) not Lauren (Lauren), don't get it wrong _(:з」∠)_.

how to say?In fact, since she was born, she was destined to return to Rusty Lake.

We know that Mr. Crow Aldous Vanderboom has an older brother named William Vanderboom. After the two brothers completed the research on the immortality medicine, Aldous drank the medicine and gained immortality, but William died suddenly and became a ghost in a special form. .It retains full consciousness during its lifetime, can communicate with humans with psychic abilities, and can also use Ouija boards.

After his brother became like that, Aldous told him that he wanted to help him resurrect.The brothers were able to develop the Elixir of Immortality, which naturally borrowed some of the... er, witchcraft that could have been burned at the stake if revealed.Among them, there is a method that can be used, which is "sacrifice".

He needs ten members of their family to sacrifice part of their bodies, plus William's heart, to successfully resurrect his brother.For this reason, the brothers did not hesitate to plan a huge conspiracy, which created a tragedy for three generations of the Vanderboom family.

From WIlliam's son (should be him instead of Aldous's son) James, almost all members of this family died unexpectedly, and even some, killed each other, the purpose was only for the resurrection of one person.

Cold blooded?certainly.However, those who can soak in all kinds of weird classics and finally develop the eternal life medicine cannot be judged by common sense.What's more... Everyone is an egoist. Although it cannot be said that this sentence is true, it is true for the vast majority of people.

What is it like to be a ghost?I haven't experienced it myself, so I can't jump to conclusions about it, but it must be very uncomfortable, right?Otherwise, William would not hesitate to mutilate his descendants, and would try his best to turn back into a human being.

In the end, did things work out?Maybe, maybe not.

William did get rid of the form of the earthbound spirit, and he did reincarnate, but...

(William, who has already taken advantage of various aspects: Wait, why do you say I am an earthbound spirit???)

(Author: ...cough cough, haven't you been staying in your own house in the game, haven't you ever gone out? Isn't that an earthbound spirit?)

(William: ...you win.)

William eventually reincarnated as the daughter of his great-granddaughter Rose Vanderboom.

yes daughter.You read that right.

I don't think William is clear about this wave of operations.Although the incident was planned by him, how much influence can he have on the present world as a ghost?It must be inseparable from his brother.

Forget it, because William has no memories of his life after reincarnation, so there will be no questions like "why I don't have a penis" (cough cough), and it won't feel like he was struck by lightning (after all He had a son before... Although I can't imagine what kind of woman can marry him so bravely. ps. Maybe the producer can't think of it, so she never appeared, and it is possible that James is the one who used alchemy manufactured).

Leaving aside the "embarrassment caused by men wearing women's clothing", I think everyone already knows or guessed that William's reincarnated name is Laura, Laura Vanderboom.

Yes, Aldous killed his/her brother after sissizing (truly sissing) his/her brother.

Perhaps at the beginning, he really wanted to resurrect his brother for his own good (hmm...does it sound very basic?), but, after such a long time, his mind was still distorted.

We've said before that the Elixir of Immortality is flawed.In this way, you have to drink medicine constantly to maintain the state of immortality (wait a minute... did you think of the Philosopher's Stone in Harry Potter?), and the power of Rusty Lake is very important to their immortality (whether it is used which method) is decisive.Therefore, in order to obtain eternal life, he did not hesitate to use the life of his own brother (great-great-granddaughter? Sorry I don't know the generation) to extend his own life.

How should I say it?If it were us, in that state, we might make the same choice.

Although I have lived for more than 100 years, nearly 200 years, my life may come to an end every moment. That feeling... can really drive someone completely crazy.But... Now that I have tasted the taste of eternal life, I want to hold it tightly and never let go.For this reason, they can even resort to unscrupulous means to deny their relatives.

sad?very sad.Do you regret it?No regrets.Since the crime of kinicide has already been committed, why not commit it again?

A road to the dark, nothing more than the case.

Speaking of Laura Vanderboom again, she doesn't actually live near Rusty Lake, but somewhere else.Under normal circumstances, she might never return to Rusty Lake for the rest of her life.But who gave her a younger brother (great-great-grandfather? This generation is really...) who knows everything?He won't and can't give up monitoring Laure - because of her special status.So, after Laure suffered from depression and anxiety, he slipped a flyer from Rusty Lake into her mailbox at her home.

Even, we can reasonably guess that these mental illnesses of Laure will occur, and it is very likely that they are also related to Mr. Crow.Otherwise, judging from the ruthlessness of William in her previous life who calculated her offspring mercilessly, even if she was reincarnated and changed gender, how could she be so prone to mental illness?Of course, it cannot be ruled out that something went wrong during the sacrificial ceremony...

Even after Laure was killed and the memory was extracted, Mr. Crow also used this to attract another detective, Dale Vandermeer, who could also extract the cube (although it may be a coincidence, but I don’t think so), I have to say it’s true Thinking deeply, is it really a person who has lived for more than 200 years and can make the medicine of immortality?

Speaking of the detective, what he extracted from his memory was not the usual black and white squares, but blue ones.

In the notes, the blue squares are "treasures from back in time".
