I created the myth of the Great Old Ones.

The teddy bear was fluffy and soft, and it didn't seem like there was a person inside it; it seemed more like a real living being.

This thing definitely won't appear in the script for "Glass Flower".

"Yes, you don't need to worry."

Lu Ban answered decisively.

There seem to be quite a few strange things in my small town.

Lu Ban arrived outside the main control room. It was evening on the first day of the live broadcast. The weather was clear, and the surface of the Lingjiang River could be seen shimmering, reflecting the sunset, making it exceptionally beautiful.

The spot where there used to be an amusement park by the river is now empty, with only weeds and scattered rocks.

"As long as it doesn't affect the live stream, there's no problem."

Lu Ban confirmed.

"Moreover, our staff are professionally trained and are generally unaffected by strange things. This is also a good place to confirm the level of contamination."

Currently, the pollution in the abandoned capital under normal circumstances is no longer a problem for most people in the world.

Even if they looked directly at the glass flower and saw it with their own eyes, they would only feel dizzy and disoriented.

In the past, this would have driven several people insane.

Therefore, resisting pollution through subtle, gradual exposure is a viable approach.

The first night passed safely, and all four groups had their own goals.

The detective team's job is to investigate cases, question suspects, and investigate Dr. House's case through normal channels.

The slum group learned the identity of the female corpse and prepared to investigate at the Red Dance Hall.

The gang begins its investigation by investigating the death of one of its members, and Bisso, who plays Stone, and his older brother Archid plan to contact the detective team to exchange information.

The assassins, meanwhile, were planning how to infiltrate the banquet on the third night.

Everyone has a bright future.

Moreover, after a day of adaptation, coupled with the extraordinary influence of the script, these players gradually immersed themselves in their roles, stopped saying things that were considered "supernatural," and even their personalities and ways of doing things became more and more like the characters they were playing.

The live stream was like a movie, and the audience gradually became immersed in it.

This feeling is wonderful.

When you're tired from work, you can open the website anytime and see the people in the town bustling about, just like something that's really happening in another world.

Moreover, even if you haven't looked at it for a while, you can still easily organize your thoughts by summarizing information from others.

Online, there are already many videos speculating on the truth of the incident.

By the evening of the third day, before the banquet began, the number of positive reviews had reached seven million.

At this point, all four groups will be gathered at the banquet, and the audience's anticipation is naturally at its peak. Starting from 6:00 AM domestic time, the live streaming server was already at full capacity, and additional lines had to be added temporarily to distribute the load.

At seven o'clock, the four members of the detective team entered the banquet hall.

They changed into a different outfit and looked like formal guests.

However, as soon as the mentally ill man entered the gate, he saw a familiar figure.

"Isn't that the streamer?"

He saw Lin Xiaohao, who was well-known to many people because of his impressive social skills.

When the mentally ill guy saw this guy, he was surprised to see that he was wearing a suit and looked like a rich man.

I haven't seen them for the past two days. I didn't expect them to be doing so well.

"Isn't this that boss?"

The delivery driver was quite familiar with the appearance of these capitalists, and he immediately spotted Zhou Yuan, who was wearing a suit and was mixed in with the crowd.

They used their connections with third-rate actors to get some costumes, and after training, they impersonated wealthy people to sneak in.

Based on their investigation over the past two days, the murderer is certain to appear at the banquet today to assassinate the next target!

"So they were the easy difficulty ones after all?"

The mentally ill guy felt that the differences between people were too great.

Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth, while others are born sleeping in a coffin.

"There are acquaintances over there."

The French policewoman said that they saw two of the banquet hall waiters who were players they had seen before.

The gangster standing by the door on one side was the same keyboard warrior from before.

"It looks like all the players have gathered here. Tonight is the key to solving the case."

The high school detective pushed up his AR glasses and looked around at everyone.

As the banquet progressed, the number of comments on the screen increased.

[This spectacle, wow, many movies can't even do that, right?]

[Look at those NPCs, their dialogue is so natural, like they really live in this city. Where did you find all these actors?]

[This coordination is simply unbeatable! Hundreds of people, and it looks so real. Even the best directors might not be able to pull this off!]

I have a theory, it might not be right, but could it be that these aren't actors, but actually people living in the ruined city?

Wake up! Don't let this get to you. It's all fake, it's all an act.

[One group is going to kill the Godfather, and the other group is the Godfather's men. This is going to be interesting.]

Would you consider this a multi-narrative structure that eventually intertwines?

[Stop talking, I feel these players are completely unprofessional. Let's go, we can find a lot more clues, and the situation will be completely different.]

Don't brag, what if you randomly get a prostitute?

Scenes with many people are usually the most challenging to direct. If even one or two actors make a mistake, the entire scene has to be reshot, making it comparable to a long take.

Lu Ban was doing a live stream, with no room for retakes or adjustments, making it even more difficult than a long take.

To make a live stream with hundreds of viewers appear natural and engaging requires not only a skilled director but also highly professional and focused actors.

Where did Lu Ban find so many actors?

At this point, the perspective shifts to the assassin, who sneaks into the corridor to find the house where the Godfather is located.

Meanwhile, the perspective shifts, and Bisso, playing Stone, leads the detective team down the corridor to find Mrs. Martina.

As soon as Bisso opened the door, the assassin on the other side heard the sound of the door opening.

The interweaving of the two editing styles unexpectedly created a sense of tension.

Just as the audience was on edge, worried that the killer would be discovered, Bisso opened the door.

Inside the door, Madame Martina's glass flower bloomed, and for a moment, expressions of astonishment, surprise, and confusion were truly reflected on the faces of all the players.

"It's a ventilation opening!"

The mentally ill guy saw the open vent and immediately moved a chair over and crawled inside.

From a first-person perspective, you can see the same colored paint found on the walls of the ventilation shafts around him, reminiscent of the paint found on corpses, and a foul stench wafts from the air.

The mentally ill man chased after them and saw the trail extending towards the sewers.

He jumped into the sewer and followed the trail around the corner.

Immediately, the first-person perspective was cut off.

At this moment, all the audience members had only one thought in their minds.

"What's next?"

Chapter 443 Escape from the Locked Room: No One Survives

The scene shifts to the banquet hall, where the group skillfully examines the body and analyzes the scene, much like real detectives.

Only the two groups of people in the banquet hall, each with their own ulterior motives, were present.

"The book I'm looking for has probably been taken by the gangsters, and it might be in the Godfather's hands. I need to find the Godfather."

The university professor, dressed as a Taoist priest, said that he saw the banquet hall had been sealed off and no one could leave.

"The assassin has disappeared; we don't know where he went or if he found the Godfather."

The underground doctor who was with him looked around.

Just then, two notifications appeared on his AR glasses.

[Player Cao Chong has died and exited the game.]

[Player Wu Nuo has died and exited the game.]

These two men are a mentally ill guy and a hitman.

They're dead?

Although the underground doctor knew that this death probably meant that some death flag had been triggered in the game and he had to leave, now that there was only one day left in the game, it was time for him to leave.

But how did they die?

The mentally ill guy wasn't familiar with the underground doctor, but the assassin was supposed to kill the Godfather, so why did he die first?

Is that godfather a very good fighter?

If the murderer is the Godfather, then wouldn't I be unable to complete my mission at all?

The audience was a little taken aback by what they saw.

What? You can leave the stage?

So, these people are actually quite impressive. If it were me, I probably wouldn't have made it through the first night.

[I feel like as long as I don't do anything reckless, I shouldn't die. And if the other members of the assassin team don't cause trouble, they should survive to the end, right?]

This game has transitioned from a deduction game to a survival game.

The more you know, the more unhappy you become. Don't investigate the truth, or you'll become unhappy.

Therefore, the murderer was probably not the players, because all the players were in the banquet hall at the time, and no one left to kill the mentally ill guy.
