I created the myth of the Great Old Ones.

But when Qin Tiantian opened her WeChat Moments, she saw another repost: "[First online report on the solution to the glass flower problem – everything you don't understand is here!]"

Once you click in, the author of the article vividly analyzes that the murderer in the case should be Dr. House, who died initially. He faked his death by exaggerating the manner of his death, evaded the investigation, and killed the investigators for his own purposes.

"That makes a lot of sense!"

Qin Tiantian thought this analysis was also reasonable.

While she was eating, a friend sent her another link. Clicking on it revealed: "[All other answers are wrong! The most correct explanation for 'Glass Flower'!]"

The article analyzes each player in detail and concludes with the view that the murderer is among the players, and the most likely culprit is the high school detective, because he took everyone in at his house, which led to the team's annihilation.

"That makes perfect sense!!!"

Qin Tiantian felt that what he said was absolutely right.

"So the truth is, Dr. House faked his death, then teamed up with the high school detective and the godfather to kill everyone else!"

She said to Lu Ban.

"Wow, you're amazing."

Lu Ban spoke in a voice devoid of any inflection or emotion.

"It's just so-so."

Qin Tiantian touched her nose.

I wasn't complimenting you.

Lu Ban felt it was necessary to give a reminder.

"So it wasn't a compliment after all???"

Qin Tiantian felt she had been deceived.

"So what is the answer?"

She asked again.

"I can't say."

Lu Ban shook his head.

"Are you worried that I might accidentally blurt it out during my live stream? How could I? I'm the most discreet person in the world. I haven't even told anyone that White Rabbit is currently in a relationship!"

Qin Tiantian condemned.

"See, this is why I didn't tell you."

Lu Ban spread his hands.

The live stream of 【Glass Flower】undoubtedly aroused everyone's curiosity.

He didn't actually interfere with the players' choices; it was all guided by the players themselves.

Lu Ban has always believed in a principle: give characters life, and they will act on their own.

Give each player a sufficiently detailed setup, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in the game, and then throw them onto the stage of the ruined city. They will then take action on their own, each step driven by their own will and their own thought process.

The story depicted in this way is more real than any fabrication.

From this perspective, the scenario of "Glass Flower" is limitless, and you can still enjoy it even if you play it repeatedly.

This is a true "exotic" story!

Chapter 445 Find a way to get a shot

Lu Ban received several messages from acquaintances.

The vast majority of inquiries were about when the next "Glass Flower" event would be held, hoping to secure a spot.

Most of these people are from the film and television industry. For them, experiencing the plot is one aspect, but the layout of the entire town, the performances of the NPCs, the design of the props, and the creation of the atmosphere are the most important.

Just as a master filmmaker creates a classic work, so people in the industry go to analyze and learn from it, Lu Ban's live-action game has many things worth learning. For film and television professionals, it's practically a textbook example.

In fact, Lu Ban could have simply declared the "Glass Flower" script to be out of print and then developed other scripts in the town to maintain a sense of novelty. However, he planned to transform this place into a large base for experiencing exotic cultures and learning exotic knowledge.

Just like Disneyland and Universal Studios, people from all over the world flock to this town to experience a different lifestyle and are subtly influenced by it, thus spreading its influence.

In this way, pollution can be caused to the entire world without causing huge social changes.

Lu Ban now believes that even if a monster from a normal abandoned city appeared in this world, it would only be photographed and uploaded to Weibo at lightning speed, and eventually locked up for research.

but……

"There are still some problems to be solved."

Lu Ban did not immediately start the second "Glass Flower" because the venue needed to be rearranged and some problems did occur during the live broadcast.

The occasional appearance of children and teddy bears on the street—if these things continue to appear, they might pose a safety risk to the NPCs.

Just then, Lu Ban's phone rang.

He initially thought it was someone trying to participate in "Glass Flower" through Song Yunyan or Li Zijian's connections, but upon closer inspection, he realized it was the person in charge from the abandoned town calling.

"what happened?"

Lu Ban asked.

"Director Lu, uh, we've encountered a problem here. It's just that, uh, the kid who appeared during the previous live stream, we've cornered him in a room."

"That's what the other person said."

"?"

Lu Ban was a little confused.

His men not only didn't flee in terror upon seeing the strange creature, but they even cornered it in a dark room.

Isn't this a bit too far beyond imagination?

He immediately drove to the town.

It was getting late, and many of the players were still engrossed in the game, with many of them still unable to come up with the answer.

Out of concern for their safety, Lu Ban did not let them go home, but instead treated them well at the hotel.

Several of them said they didn't want to go back and wanted to stay with Lu Ban as NPCs.

Life in the ruined city is much more comfortable than life in the real world, and you don't have to worry about so many things.

After living in the hustle and bustle of the city for too long, this simple and unpretentious lifestyle is all the more appealing.

Lu Ban was still considering whether the town would need to be expanded if some people stayed each time.

If it eventually expands to the scale of an entire city, wouldn't Lu Ban be considered to have recreated a ruined city in this world?

Composing himself, Lu Ban arrived at the abandoned town.

Upon arriving at the small house where the strange creature was imprisoned, Lu Ban inquired about the situation.

“We were still packing when we saw a little kid there. Remembering what had happened before, I immediately closed the door and locked him inside. I just glanced at him and we made eye contact.”

The NPC was a gangster, and even when he spoke to Lu Ban, he appeared somewhat fierce and menacing.

"Let me see."

Lu Ban peered into the room through the crack in the door.

In the dimly lit room, there was a dilapidated table with a chair behind it. My gaze swept across the mottled walls, past the tattered bed, and towards the corner.

There seemed to be a few stones in the corner, but there was no sign of any children.

"No……"

Just as Lu Ban was thinking this, another eye suddenly appeared in front of him.

Those eyes had no whites and stared straight at him, as if his face were pressed tightly against Lu Ban's.

Lu Ban withdrew his gaze.

He opened the door.

There was nothing inside the door.

"Strange... I clearly saw a child just now..."

The NPC scratched his head.

"They've already left."

Lu Ban said casually.

"He came to warn me."

"warn?"

Others were puzzled.

Lu Ban didn't criticize these people for not questioning the existence of ghosts in the world; instead, he offered an explanation.

"Perhaps it's because they were buried here, and our large-scale construction has disturbed them."

"What should I do?"

The NPC then asked another question.

"Don't worry. Think about it. If it's just a prank, then it's similar to a naughty kid. Maybe the naughty kid is even more destructive. But if it does something bad and kills you, then you'll become a ghost and can fight it out with it. Let's see who's the real vengeful ghost, right?"

Lu Ban patiently and persuasively guided him.

"...That seems to make sense."

The NPC seemed to understand, but also seemed not to fully understand.

"But we can't go on like this."

Lu Ban arrived at the slope by the river and saw the amusement park faintly visible in the swirling night, seemingly brightly lit and exuding a joyful atmosphere of celebrating New Year's Day, making one want to join in.

However, all the operating rides were empty, a stark contrast to the cheerful atmosphere.

He dialed Li Zijian's number.

At this moment, Li Zijian was still immersed in his vacation, watching his daughter watching cartoons on TV, feeling relaxed and content.

Li Zijian followed Lu Ban's global live stream. He felt that the laws of Earth could no longer restrain this person, as he could come up with all sorts of crooked and unorthodox ideas.
