"..."

Kou Dong's scalp seemed to explode at once. He raised his foot and took a big step back, but his eyes couldn't help but still look into the room. The housekeeper in the room had put on new skins, and was a new and completely different person, twisting its limbs, and the feathers inside made a creaking sound.

The thread on the neck was completely covered by the shirt, and the bow tie was also straight.

Buttons at the cuffs block the remaining connections.

It took out the gold pocket watch again from its breast pocket, and opened the cover with a click.

"It's time," it said casually, with a soft voice that seemed to whisper in a lover's ear, "it's time to cover up the quilt for the young master again."

After finishing speaking, it really raised its foot and moved its footsteps.

"..."

At this moment, thousands of mythical beasts galloped in Kou Dong's heart, and he almost swears at the game system.

"Fuck, are all the puppets in your game so dedicated!"

Game system: [Please pay attention to the wording, NPC is for the player. 】

"..."

Don't want this kind of service!

Who needs an NPC of a horror game to cover himself up in the middle of the night!

The butler walked towards the door step by step. Xu is because he just got a new skin, his pace is not big, he still stumbles a little, and he walks crookedly. Kou Dong didn't dare to try what would happen if he bumped into him, so he turned his head and ran back.

This corridor is not too long. Fortunately, Kou Dong's physical fitness is not bad. He ran to the end of the stairs in a few steps. But at the same time, he suddenly saw the dim candlelight moving up slowly under the stairs, and the shadow of the candle jumped on the wall.

Kou Dong could see his face clearly from the gap between the armrests, it was actually a manservant with a fire utensil in his hand!

Looking at this, it looks like the fireplace in the castle has just been repaired...

Kou Dong's footsteps stopped, and he quickly turned a corner. He couldn't care about anything at the moment, the footsteps behind him became more and more clear, the housekeeper had already paced out of the door; the servant in front also stepped up the steps and walked towards the resting room. With no way forward, Kou Dong had to pull open the nearest door and quickly hid in.

He closed the door gently and tightly, and immediately held his breath and stood in the corner of the wall, clinging to the root of the wall.

The manservant outside had already climbed the steps and said respectfully, "Butler Ross."

"Uh-huh."

The butler's voice was still a little weird, as if he didn't quite adapt to this new body. Kou Dong didn't dare to come out. Hearing the butler ask through the thin door panel, "Why did you come back?"

"There's something wrong with the stove in your room," replied the valet. "I'm worried, so I checked again."

The housekeeper asked again, "Did there be someone just now?"

Servant: "I didn't see it. Who did you see?"

Kou Dong's heart beat even more violently. He didn't say a word, but his hand firmly grasped the doorknob, ready to resist the sudden attack.

"I didn't see it," the butler repeated regretfully, "I didn't see it..."

Kou Dong suddenly saw a pair of eyes. The eyes leaned against the crack of the door and looked in, and the blue pupils rolled around in the whites of their eyes, searching the house. But he didn't notice the boy in the corner. When he straightened up again, the butler's throat made a clicking sound, as if the clockwork was spinning.

"Let him run away, let the bride run away..."

He laughed softly, which echoed monotonously in the invisible night. Immediately, two footsteps came from the door, and the two of them didn't have any more conversation and went straight to their goal.

Kou Dong let out a slight sigh, knowing that he had escaped temporarily. Only then did he have time to look up at the room he had temporarily hid in.

The room is very small, and after eyes are used to the darkness, can slowly distinguish the outline of the objects in the room.

Ordinary beds, cabinets, and no other furniture. Kou Dong saw something very strange, and only when he touched it did he know it was a tape measure.

He moved in his heart, thinking of the tailor who came to measure his body during the day. When I went to the bed to look, it was indeed a tailor.

Of all the people in the castle, he was the only one with such a beard.

Kou Dong held his breath, stayed in the room and waited, turning his ears to distinguish.

After a long while, unable to tell whether he was relaxed or nervous, he took a deep breath.

- He didn't hear any breathing.

The tailor lay here, more like a dead thing, an open human skin. No temperature, no breath, just a cold, realistic doll.

Yes.

Otherwise, according to the godfather's possessiveness - Kou Dong couldn't imagine that he would allow such a lowly person to kiss the corner of his skirt.

It turned out to be just a group of walking dead.

How many such walking dead are there in this castle?

Kou Dong stood there and thought for a while, then suddenly turned around and opened the wardrobe in the corner. The cupboard is full of things hanging, but it looks like a piece of white clothes, large and small, with fur collars on them, which is also very suitable for the identity of a tailor.

But Kou Dong suddenly reached out to touch those clothes. This touch made his palms sweat.

The material was so slippery that it slipped over his fingertips, and it didn't look like a textile material.

It's like...

Kou Dong pursed his lips.

It's like meeting the flesh and blood of a living person.

He endured nausea and pulled up a sleeve, which turned out to be a human arm. The leather that the housekeeper just wore is now hanging here one by one, like a handicraft carefully sewn by a tailor.

——Wait, maybe it’s really a handicraft crafted by people.

Kou Dong stood there for a while, then asked the system, "Are there any legal restrictions on the game?"

Game system: [As long as the groom is not caught, the rest of the players are asked to explore by themselves. 】

Kou Dong nodded, and said like a small talk, "So, it's okay if I kill someone and set fire to it, right?"

In a society ruled by law for a long time, he was really afraid that he would be caught and imprisoned for playing like this.

Game system: […? ? ? 】

set fire?

It vaguely felt that something was wrong, but before he could say it, Kou Dong had already opened the door again and went into the housekeeper's house.

The housekeeper went downstairs alone, and the candlestick was still in the room. The candle flame didn't go out, it burned with a crackling sound.

Kou Dong held the candlestick and muttered, "I don't know if the human skin will burn well..."

Game system: [? ? ? ? ? ? 】

Its question mark was about to pop out of the air, and he was stunned as he watched Kou Dong cut the curtains, and piled them roughly together with the sheets. Under the almost astonished gaze of the system, Kou Dong calmly piled these things onto the tailor—

Then he took the candlestick and set the curtains on fire.

The carpets were burnt, the skins inside the cupboards were burnt, and even every house was pushed away, and the fire was lit carelessly. The smell of burning human skin slowly spread, black smoke swirled up, and the room was full of red.

Game system: […]

It's not what it said, it really hasn't seen this gameplay.

Players of horror games have always focused on exploration, trembling to find a way to survive. Kou Dong is different from acting and pits NPCs, but he dares to set fire to NPCs? !

It was rarely a bit stuck, and said in shock: [Aren't players afraid of NPC revenge? 】

Kou Dong also lit the carpet, and then said, "Then they have to get up."

Game system: […]

"I just watched it. The housekeeper's movement was quite loud, and none of the NPCs on this floor responded." Kou Dong said, "What does this mean? It means that they don't have a role in the evening."

Simply put, it can be said to be on standby.

So what are you waiting for if you don't burn it now, wait for them to turn on tomorrow morning?

Kou Dong is not stupid, isn't this increasing the number of enemies for himself?

He is not the kind of evil pen that has no guns and no cannons, and is specially created for the enemy.

Game system: […]

"So," Kou Dong concluded, "it's better to burn it down and pull it down."

Besides, burning is also an opportunity for him, maybe he will take advantage of the chaos to run away...

Kou Dong suddenly patted his hand, "By the way, while we are at this time, let's go and burn the wedding dress. I—no, I didn't like that ragged dress so early!"

He is not the kind of unscrupulous person, and he will never abandon his dignity in order to survive!

Kou Dong ran downstairs quickly, full of expectations and rushed to the dressing room to burn the wedding dress. It's a pity that as soon as ran to the door of the locker room, heard a creaking sound from the door not far away, followed by the clear and cold voice of the godfather.

"why do not you sleep?"

Kou Dong turned his head and saw the godfather coming out in a nightgown. The godfather stared straight at him with swarthy eyes, like a wolf staring at his prey, licking his claws unhurriedly.

He stared at the delicate neck of his godson. That piece of skin was extremely white, even a little dazzling. The round-eyed boy stood not far from him, his expression panicked, teaching him that he wanted to have his teeth printed directly.

Bitten through this man, left it here, poured into his blood.

His eyes darkened at the thought.

"Disobedient children... are to be punished."

He smiled slightly and took a step forward.

"Yes?"

The boy suddenly said, "Then what if I didn't obey?"

"..." The godfather frowned, unable to understand the meaning of this sentence.

"It's on fire," Kou Dong said with his eyes slightly curved, "If I don't come out, I'm afraid I'll be smoked to death."

The puppy did tell him the rule that he would be filled when he went out at night, but that was when nothing happened.

In a special situation like tonight, Kou Dong didn't believe that this broken game would still stick to this rule.

Sure enough, after saying this sentence, the godfather's face obviously changed. The strange glory that had just faded from his face, and he became the godfather of indifference and majesty, staring at his godson.

"Then," he said slowly, "what are you doing in front of the locker room?"

Kou Dong didn't feel guilty at all, instead he straightened his chest.

"Isn't this a fire?" he said, "I'm afraid that something will happen to my wedding dress, and the wedding must not be delayed..."

godfather:"……"

Game system: […]

Come on, stop talking nonsense, didn't you just swear that it is absolutely impossible to abandon your dignity for survival?

Doesn't your face hurt now? ?

The author has something to say:

Kou Dong (righteous words): I am protecting my wedding dress!

NPC:  …

Put down the torch in your hand and speak again.
