There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 642

Chapter 642: Chapter 556 They’re all crazy!

The reason that the hiding place of the bride was finally exposed was the village chief’s diary.

The diary belonging to the child also ends here, although the box still contains many Handwritten Notes, the remaining pages are no longer about everyday life.

It’s evident.

After this incident.

The passion a child had for keeping a diary had been brutally extinguished in the cradle!

...

The remaining Handwritten Notes seem to be written in an adult’s handwriting and tone.

Most of the records are about notable figures from the Zhang, Wang, and Li families, or about significant events, special days, and incidents that needed attention in the village.

The bear child who once loved to fish in the river and hunt birds in the mountains had eventually grown into a village chief of Osmanthus Village, with a heart as fierce as any man’s!

There is also a sentence on the Handwritten Notes:

[“I don’t know why I must do this, but I think, sitting in this position, those people would have to look at my face before they even think about entering my yard.”]

Look, eavesdropping on a child’s diary has caused such a deep psychological shadow on the child.

Xu Shuo finished reading a stack of Handwritten Notes in the box, but still didn’t find the information he was looking for.

Although this information certainly enhances the plot of the script, it’s not very related to the bride, he wanted to see the ins and outs of the bride’s incident.

After reading the Handwritten Notes, all that is known for now:

The scholar who initially came to Osmanthus Village was not the only one besides the bride.

But as for the fate of those people, there is no detailed description in the village chief’s diary, the child initially only thought that the group had left.

After all, from the beginning, those scholars were not assigned to Osmanthus Village.

The geographical location of Osmanthus Village is very remote, surrounded by four mountains, with a river blocking the way to the outside world, people unfamiliar with the terrain probably find it very difficult to find a way out.

Thus, whether those people truly left or were forced to stay.

I’m afraid that remains an unsolved mystery.

Secondly.

Tiezhu hid the bride in the ancestral hall on his own initiative, and he probably can’t escape blame for this.

After all, the village chief also hinted.

It’s very likely that Tiezhu died at that time.

…

After reading the Handwritten Notes, Xu Shuo sat in the yard lost in thought, his gaze fixed on the corner where the Osmanthus Tree stood.

Some time later.

The village chief, who had gone to the ancestral hall to watch a play, came back.

Seeing Xu Shuo in a daze, he asked, “How about it, have you finished looking at everything?”

As he spoke, the village chief walked forward, expecting to see more scraps of paper in the rosewood box, but the already aged papers were neatly stacked together.

Although the Zhang Family seems to be a highly respected big family in Osmanthus Village, no matter what, it’s still just what a small mountain village would consider a big family.

So, they didn’t have the kind of paper that could be preserved for a long time.

Yesterday, when the village chief took them out, he accidentally crumbled a small corner of each sheet, as if stamping a seal.

Now, looking at the neatly stacked papers in the box, the village chief was somewhat puzzled.

“Did you finish reading?” he asked again.

“I’ve finished reading,” Xu Shuo replied indifferently.

“Are you satisfied?”

“Not at all useful.”

“…”

The village chief looked at him with twitching corners of his mouth.

Xu Shuo rested his chin on his hand and asked, “So, is there any other useful information, like something about the bride?”

The village chief shook his head: “Don’t even mention the bride, there’s no data or information at all about those scholars from that year, it’s as clean as if someone deliberately destroyed the evidence.”

This time, the village chief was speaking the truth.

He had already told Xu Shuo basically everything he knew.

Because of the threat of Abyss, he was also willing to help other players complete their tasks as quickly as possible, so there was no need to continue the cutthroat competition for a little more performance value.

Seriously, how could rewards be more important than a little life!

If it really came to a desperate situation, he wouldn’t mind messing up his own main task!

…

Xu Shuo sensed the village chief’s emotions, and seeing his reaction that didn’t seem to be fake, he nodded and said nothing more.

“Did you see any good shows?” Xu Shuo changed the subject and asked.

The village chief had said earlier that he was going to the neighboring ancestral hall to take a look.

When he returned, he seemed quite content.

Now that the subject was brought up, the village chief got excited.

He clicked his tongue and said, “It was terribly tragic!

Not only were they skinned alive and had their tendons pulled out, but they were also nailed firmly to the bed with pry bars, and nearly bled out.

Today, the Wang Family had to carry the whole bed to the ancestral hall for treatment!”

As mentioned before.

The bride doesn’t directly kill people but instead practices inhumane torture.

As long as they survive until dawn, there’s still a chance those people can be saved.

And the key to treatment is in the ancestral hall of Osmanthus Village.

“So what exactly is in the ancestral hall?” Xu Shuo asked curiously, “Is there divine medicine stored there?”

“If there really was a panacea, it would have been snatched up long ago.

It’s actually just a bunch of ancestor’s plaques.

We carry the people over there to pray to the gods and ancestors, and after treatment, they tend to recover a little quicker,” the village chief explained.

“…That’s really mystical,” remarked Xu Shuo.

He would find it more convincing if there was a magic treasure involved, rather than asking ancestors for help.

If the ancestors of Osmanthus Village were really blessing their descendants, they would have come out and turned the bride into ash by now, right?

So, there definitely must be something there!

It seems burning down the ancestral hall could actually be added to the agenda.

“Also, I don’t know where Mr.

Wang has gone,” added the village chief, pondering, “He’s the current head of the Wang Family.

With such an incident at home, he should be present at the hall praying for blessings by all accounts.”
