After calling Amamiya Aiko to the store, Mitarai Nanaya summoned her sister Mitarai Mia.
As soon as Mitarai Mia heard the call, she hurried over without asking what she was going to do. When she arrived, she saw Amamiya Aiko and Ohnoji and asked curiously: "Brother, you called me.
What are you here for?"
Mitarai Nanaya did not answer Mitarai Mia, but took them to a room at the back, and then said to them very seriously, "This game is very long, can you make sure that there are no other things in the next four or five hours?"
Things to do?”
"Four to five hours?" Amemiya Aiko looked surprised, "Is this game that long?"
Ohnoji also shouted, "It's already nine o'clock four or five hours later, and we haven't even eaten. Can't the game time be shorter?"
Mitarai Nanaya shook her head, "In order to ensure that you can have a good game experience, such a long time is necessary. Of course, if any of you can't guarantee that you can stay here for the next four or five hours, you can leave now, don't wait until the game starts.
If you wait until halfway, it will affect other people's gaming experience."
Several people looked at each other. The two people Ohnoji brought obviously didn't want to stay here. Four or five hours was really too long for them. However, under the threat from Ohnoji's eyes, the two of them could only stay.
Able to remain silent.
Amemiya Aiko shrugged. There were people watching over at the bookstore, and she didn't need to be in the store. Besides, she was willing to stay with Mitarai Nanaya for as long as she could.
Mitarai Mia didn't have any objections. She wished the game could last as long as possible. It was really boring to stay at home. There weren't many opportunities for such open and honest play.
After making sure that everyone was fine, Nanaya Mitarai took out a stack of scripts from the cabinet and gave one to each of the five people.
Mitarai Nanaya said while dividing the scripts to them, "Here is your role script, which contains a detailed introduction to the roles you play. In the next four or five hours, you need to play your own roles seriously.
"
Ohnoji looked at Mitarashi Nanaya and asked, "Aren't you going to play a role?"
"I am the host of this game. Next, I will guide you how to play this game. First, I will describe to you the background of this story. The story took place in a small village about thirty years ago. A young man
After graduating, a college student came to a remote village to work as a mathematics teacher. His name was Takahashi Shinichi. But one morning three months later, Takahashi Shinichi’s body was found in a forest. In Takahashi Shinichi
One week before his death, he was accused by student Mieko Ito of molesting her. During this time, Shinichi Takahashi was suspended from the school and under investigation. Therefore, people suspect that Shinichi Takahashi could not bear the condemnation of conscience and people's comments.
, so I chose to commit suicide.”
Mitarai Mie raised her hand and said, "I play Mieko Ito."
"After I finish the introduction, you all have to read your script carefully. This is a reasoning script. Mathematics teacher Takahashi Shinichi might have committed suicide or he might have been killed. You need to figure it out through reasoning.
If the math teacher is killed, you have to find out who the murderer is."
"Does the murderer have to be one of us? Could it be someone else?" Aiko Amamiya asked.
Mitarashi Nanaya shrugged, "You need to discover this yourself. The script will give you enough clues."
"Does the murderer himself know that he is the murderer?" asked the girl captured by Onoji.
Mitarai Nanaya shook her head, "Not necessarily, you have to find the answer yourself during the game. Okay, let's continue to tell the background of the story. The day before Takahashi Shinichi's body was discovered, Ito Mieko's good friend
, Taro Hanari went to the teacher’s dormitory to find him and threatened to kill the teacher himself.”
"I am Hanari Taro." Onoji raised his hand and said.
Mitarashi Nanaya nodded and continued, "Takahashi Shinichi himself has a girlfriend, and his girlfriend also teaches in the school. Her name is Nozawa Koka. Because of the obscenity incident, the two were quarreling recently. Nozawa
Xiaoxiang hopes to break up with Takahashi Shinichi, but Takahashi Shinichi is not willing to break up. Some people have seen them arguing more than once..."
The background of the story is very long, and the script everyone received is also very long, but under the guidance of Mitarashi Nanaya, several people are very patient, mainly because the story itself is quite attractive, and they have never experienced this type of genre before.
game.
Especially Mia Mitarai. After this girl learned that her role was Mieko Ito, she acted aggrieved, as if she had really been molested, and she was very involved in the play.
After Mitarashi Nanaya introduced the background, he said, "In the next period of time, please read your script carefully. After reading it, we will start the game. In addition, I want to remind you that everyone can lie, regardless of whether you are based on
For what purpose, this game does not stipulate that players must tell the truth."
Everyone nodded, and then looked at the script in their hands seriously.
When they read the script, they finally understood why this game took so long. Apart from anything else, just getting familiar with the script took a long time.
Moreover, they can only see their own scripts now, and they don’t know what is written in other people’s scripts. They have to slowly understand it through other people’s words while playing the game.
Although none of them had played script killing before, several people involved in the game were quite sensitive and were careful when reading the scripts, for fear that others would see their scripts.
Mitarai couldn't help but smile when she saw how several people were wary of each other. A good mystery script killing begins with mutual suspicion. Although Aiko and the others have never played script killing and are not fans of mystery novels, they treat
The attitude of the game is quite serious.
You don’t need to be very good to play script killing. The key lies in your attitude. Only with a serious attitude can you have a good game experience. Since it is a script, it must be all fake, but if you can believe that everything in the script is
Really, then the game experience will be very good.
After they finished reading their scripts, Nanaya Mitarai led them to officially start the game.
…
The role Ohnoji got was Hanari Taro, who admired Mieko Ito, so he thought from the beginning that he might be the murderer of Shinichi Takahashi.
From the perspective of Hanari Taro, Takahashi Shinichi was a villain who ruined his own goddess, and his motive for the murder was clear.
But when I thought about it carefully, I felt that my motives were too obvious. If I were really the murderer, then this game might be too easy.
The script he received did not indicate that he was the murderer, so after the game started, he carefully observed the expressions and actions of several other people.
Onoji has watched the TV series "Lie to Me" produced by Deep Space Company and knows that one can judge the psychology of a person through their micro-expressions. If anyone gets the murderer's script, there will definitely be something strange.
But what disappointed Ohnoji was that everyone behaved normally, and like him, they were also sizing up other people.
In this case, either the person who got the murderer's script is very good at hiding it, or the murderer doesn't know he is the murderer.
Both situations are more troublesome. After all, this game requires them to find the murderer. If the murderer is really good at hiding, then the difficulty for them to find the murderer will be greatly increased.
If it is the latter and the murderer does not know that he is the murderer, it may be even more troublesome, because it means that Ohnoji himself may also be the murderer.
As Onoharu began to think carefully about the relationships, motives, and crime-committing abilities of everyone, he slowly inserted himself into the game. For a moment, he even felt like he was Taro Hanari.
…
As the plot of the game slowly progresses and everyone's suspicions gradually focus on Mieko Ito's mother, the story takes a turn.
Mieko Ito was not molested by Takahashi Shinichi at all. She really had an incestuous relationship with another teacher at the school, Heiryo Noma.
When the two were getting along in private, they were bumped into by Takahashi Shinichi. They were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so they poured dirty water on Takahashi Shinichi first.
But Takahashi Shinichi is a bad guy. For the sake of the face of his colleagues and girls, he communicated with Heiryo Noma in private, hoping that Mieko Ito could withdraw the accusation against him, and he would not make the two people's affairs public.
Noma Heiryo ignored Takahashi Shinichi's request at all and insisted that Takahashi Shinichi molested Ito Mieko. It was not until Takahashi Shinichi said that he had evidence that Ito Mieko had an affair with him that he
Finally panicked.
After questioning, Noma Heiryo found out that the evidence in Takahashi Shinichi's hand was the letters exchanged between him and Ito Mieko, which contained the love words they confided in each other.
In order to destroy the evidence, Heiryo Noma and Shinichi Takahashi made a compromise. On the surface, they agreed to let Mieko Ito drop the accusation against Shinichi Takahashi, but secretly they were planning how to kill Shinichi Takahashi.
In the end, Noma Heiryo's plan succeeded. He and Ito Mieko teamed up to kill Takahashi Shinichi in the woods, and disguised his suicide.
After the whole game was over, several people who participated in the game breathed a sigh of relief. Their spirits had been tense during these few hours, as if they were really engaged in a reasoning.
Amamiya Aiko said with a smile, "This is definitely a very physically demanding game. I'm already hungry."
Mitarai Mia said with a smile, "I came here after eating at home, but I also felt very hungry. This game really consumes my energy. When the game was about to end, I realized that I was one of the murderers, and my heart skipped a beat.
It’s extremely fast and it hasn’t slowed down yet.”
Ohnoharu said with great regret, "Well, I should have realized that there was something wrong with the testimonies of you and Heiryo Noma. Now it seems that your alibi are simply false."
"Yes, now that I think about it, that is indeed the case, but your performance, Karitaro, was too poor. You believed in Mieko Ito too much," Aiko Amamiya said.
Ohnoji patted his head and was very upset. He really believed too much in Mie Mitarai's character, Mieko Ito, during the game. On the one hand, Mie Mitarai did look harmless and very cute, which made people believe it.
She, and Mieko Ito was a very thin girl, so it would be very difficult to kill Shinichi Takahashi.
"If I come again next time, I will definitely not believe it easily." Ohnoji promised, patting his chest.
The girl captured by Ohnoji curled her lips and said, "This game can only be played once. We all already know the ending of the story."
"That's true. You can only play this game once. It won't be fun after you know the result."
Mitarai said with a smile, "The script-killing game is indeed the most exciting to play for the first time, but don't worry, we have many scripts to choose from."
As he spoke, Mitarai pointed to the cabinets, "These cabinets contain scripts of various genres, including detective reasoning, horror and suspense, and love life. Today's script is somewhat simple, and some more complex scripts will match the scene settings.
Along with costumes and props, there are also on-site sound effects, light and shadow.”
"Does it mean we still have to change clothes for some scripts?"
"That's right." Mitarai Nanaya nodded, "In order to increase the sense of immersion, some scripts will be equipped with special costumes. Many scripts in our store require costumes, but the costumes have not arrived yet."
Ohnoji rolled his eyes and asked, "How do you charge for this game?"
"The trial is free for the first two weeks, and charges will start after two weeks. There are also different charges, some for groups and some for individuals. At this stage, our Yuhua Reasoning Agency only accepts group customers. Customers must gather a certain amount
People then put forward script requirements, and I will try my best to provide scripts that meet the requirements."
"Do you have scripts for how many people?"
"Normally, there are four to ten people. Any more or less, and the game experience will not be good."
"Can't you play this game at home? You don't have to come to your place."
Mitarai Nanaya nodded, "Of course you can play it at home. For example, the script you played today costs 6,999 neon yuan. However, after you buy it back, you can only play it yourself and cannot do any commercial use."
Amamiya Aiko nodded and said: "More than six thousand yuan, which is not too expensive. It only costs a few bowls of ramen."
Ohnoji and the others couldn't help but curl their lips, 6999 is not more than 6,000, but 7,000. Why is ramen so expensive? 7,000 can only buy a few bowls?
Of course, although the price of 6999 seems quite expensive, it is not too outrageous. After all, the price of books here in Neon is expensive. This set of scripts is quite thick, and there are many copies. You can sell a lot if you just sell it as a book.
