Jeff has been dozing off all morning, and now he has dark circles under his eyes, his skin is blue-gray, and his eye sockets are sunken.

And he didn't know if it was Bai Liu's illusion, he felt that Andre's pupils had shrunk a little compared to yesterday, and his whole body had a nervous and restless aura that made people uncomfortable, and there was a faint fishy smell on his body taste.

Bai Liu took out the coin and swept it at Andre.

[npc name: Andre (decreased mental value, alienating)]

Andre seemed to have a big appetite at this time, and he ate a large plate of the hotel's buffet breakfast, as if pouring it directly into his throat.

Because this hotel is close to the sea, most of the breakfast is boiled and fried fish.

But Bai Liu smelled a pungent fishy smell like rotten fish tails, like the smell of dead fish surrounded by flies that he smelled in the garbage dump where the fishmongers threw fish in the vegetable market. The bright fish dishes start to gag, let alone swallow.

But both Jeff and Lucy showed expressions that these things are very fragrant.

Bai Liu took out the coin and scanned it, and sure enough, the two also showed [Alienation in progress], which should be related to the mermaid statue in the room.

Not to mention Andre, the way he ate made Bai Liu feel a little uncomfortable. Andre was chewing big mouthfuls, the wet/slippery dark/black fish tail slapping his mouth as he chewed, often he used a fork to pick up the next one before he finished eating. mouth to send.

Lucy cut the fish steak with a knife and fork, and looked at Bai Liu with a little surprise: "Don't you eat it? Baby! The fish steak here is really delicious, even if I want to go on a diet, I can't help but eat two!"

"You really found a pretty nice seaside hotel!" As she said, Lucy was about to lean over and kiss him.

But Bai Liu was choked by the strong fishy smell in Lucy's mouth, and subconsciously pushed her away. After thinking about it, she still pulled away the plate in front of Lucy, pretending to be serious and said: "Baby, you are in good shape now, I won't allow you Lose your beauty for a fish, let's have a vegetarian dish, the fish steak here is just like that."

Lucy was coaxed into elation. Although she was still reluctant to part with the fish steak, she obediently ate a lot of vegetable salad.

Bai Liu pretended to pack a lot of salads for Jeff and Andre by the way, letting them eat.

Jeff ate a little out of his mind.

On the other hand, Andre saw that Bai Liu's nose was not nose and eyes, and he mocked: "It's not because our rich man is short of money, right? Before coming here, he said big things and we come here with full board and lodging. Now he can't bear to let us even a piece of fish steak." eat."

"Look, Lucy, this is your mean boyfriend!"

Lucy immediately cursed angrily: "Andre! If it wasn't for Bailiu, do you think you can come to this kind of hotel to eat this kind of high-end fish steak? You can't even live in it! Look at how much you eat, if If Bai Liu doesn't pay you, you won't be able to get out of this hotel at all!"

"Lucy!" Andre roared, but Lucy stared at Andre with her head up.

Andre had no choice but to take the woman he liked, so he turned his head and was ready to take all his anger on Bai Liu.

Amidst Lucy's screams, seeing Andre's wide palm opening to lift Bai Liu's back collar, Bai Liu still wiped his mouth unhurriedly, looked at Andre, and said with a smile : "If you still want me to pay for you, you'd better not touch me."

Andre's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, his nostrils expanded and contracted like a cow, and let out a furious breath.

He looked at Bai Liu with red eyes, and threatened fiercely: "If you can't do what we bet on at night, I will make you, a short-handed trash who can't even get women, look good!"

Andre's eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have been dizzy with the anger that rushed straight to his forehead, but he couldn't do anything to Bai Liu, after all, he still expected Bai Liu to pay for him.

Just at this time, a broccoli accidentally rolled out of Jeff's plate, which was eating with his head down, and rolled onto Andre's shoe.

Andre is like a balloon that has been inflated to the limit and then punctured. Before the apology from Jeff's mouth can be said, he slaps Jeff on the back of the head with his backhand, directly hitting Jeff. Ralph banged his head on the plate and spat out what he had eaten in the morning.

"You dirty my shoes! You disgusting guy!" Andre seemed to find it funny when he saw Jeff vomiting, and he snorted out a laugh from his nasal cavity as he found some psychological balance, and gave another Jeff kicked.

After wiping off the negligible oil stain on his shoes on Jeff's pants, Andre said again: "I don't care about the useless trash, wipe it off, get out of here .”

Lucy helped up the dizzy Jeff, and she yelled hysterically at Andre: "You are too much, Andre! You are too much for Jeff!"

Bai Liu didn't care about the two quarreling, his eyes were focused on Jeref's vomit, the fish fillet with a golden shell, after being chewed and spit out by Jeref, the section turned out to be blue-black like a dead fish, with stains on it. It looks like a wriggling saprophyte.

People can't eat this rotten dead fish at all, and fishmongers in the vegetable market will use this dead fish to feed large fish.

Bai Liu still remembered that a fishmonger told him that the bigger the saprophytic fish, the more they like to eat dead fish.

The driver came to pick up Bai Liu and the others after Bai Liu's breakfast.

[Main task: Visit the Siren Wax Museum, reward points 50]

[Main task: Participate in the Mermaid Fishing Conference, reward points 50]

The Siren Museum and the Mermaid Fishing Convention, which sounds like two attractions.

Bai Liu pondered for a while, and was just about to ask the driver what these two were, when Jeref suddenly rushed up and stood between Bai Liu and the driver, with his head down and not speaking, his pale and thin cheeks were sunken, and the corner of his mouth was still There were blood stains from Andre's beating, his teeth were clenched, and he was trembling slightly.

Bai Liu raised his eyebrows. From yesterday until now, Jeff seems to have been trying his best to avoid contact with the driver.

This is not normal.

Bai Liu's fingers unconsciously turned the coin in his heart.

The coin flipped back and forth on the backs of his fingers, which was a common posture for Bai Liu to think about things. The feeling that money was in his hands, even a dollar, would make him feel calm and happy.

Without any other information, Bai Liu guessed that Jeff's target should be Andre. It's normal for Andre to have contact with the driver. It is necessary to isolate so deliberately.

There must be a reason for Jeff to isolate himself from the driver, and Bai Liu thought about it for a while, and it should be money.

Looking at the daily life of dressing up and being bullied by Andre on campus, Jeff obviously doesn't look like a rich character.

Andre is also very bullying. Although he is not forgiving to the rich Bailiu, he does not take any practical actions. However, he beats and scolds Jeff when he moves. From this point of view, the situation of Jeff's family is very difficult. It should be inferior to myself, not even Andre.

And last night, Jeff gave the driver what seemed to be a large sum of money. Bai Liu had reason to suspect that Jeff took the money he asked him to hire drivers and tourists to hire drivers to take revenge on Andre, so It was only because of a guilty conscience that he kept the driver from contacting him.

But Jeff paid the driver a sum of money last night. It stands to reason that the transaction has been almost completed, and the work of the driver and tourists is also performed well on the surface. He did not express any Suspect.

Generally speaking, Jeff should breathe a sigh of relief, and there is no need to isolate him and this driver so deliberately, which will instead arouse his own suspicion.

This kind of guilty conscience doesn't seem like things haven't been implemented yet.

But it's also possible that Jeref is just cautious and timid, and doesn't let his guard down if he doesn't succeed in doing things. After all, Jeref's side plot is called "Bloody Conspiracy", and it's completely understandable for Bai Liu to be careful about this kind of plot that will kill people as soon as he hears it.

I just don't know when Jeff will choose to attack Andre, but for now, Bai Liu still wants to focus on the main task.

Bai Liu talked to the driver: "Driver, are there any attractions in Siren Town?"

"Attractions?" The driver thought for a while and said, "For our tourists, the must-sees are night fishing and museums."

After hearing this answer, Bai Liu said in his heart that it was true, and he raised his eyebrows: "Is there any special feature in fishing and wax museum?"

"Of course, we are Siren Town." The driver turned around. It was the first time that Bai Liu saw the driver's appearance in the car at close range, even if his resistance to the horror scenes was as high as Bai Liu's, he couldn't help but pause.

Not out of fear, but out of wonder.

The driver looks so strange.

There are so many white parts of this person's eyes that the eyeballs are only the size of a fly. Following the words in the whites of his eyes, the eyeballs were shaking uneasily, as if he couldn't control the eyeballs that were about to disappear and escape from his eyes.

The chauffeur's skin was so pale that it was opaque, like a piece of poor-quality wax.

As he spoke, he was still biting into a fish sandwich while driving.

The cross-section of the fish fillet that was bitten off was a rotten green-black color, as if it was made of moldy fish, but the driver ate it with great relish, his teeth were stained with green-black color, and he exposed his teeth to the white willow. A smile that was so large that it was not normal.

Although the door had been locked, the doorknob was twisted vigorously by the wax figure of the mermaid outside the door, making the sound of fragile metal cracking, and it sounded like it would soon be scrapped.

This thing seemed to want to come in. Its dead white eyes searched around Bai Liu's room. It seemed to find that there was no one in the room. It seemed to have left Bai Liu's door without moving the door handle. It became silent and silent, as if the other party had left.

But Bai Liu still held his breath, he remembered that when this thing moved, it would make a very dull sliding sound, it would be wrong without this sound.

The mermaid wax figure didn't leave at all, most likely it was still quietly guarding in front of his door.

This thing was tricking him and luring him out, Bai Liu thought, he squinted, and found that the cat's eyes that had returned to the color of the carpet suddenly turned white with bulging eyeballs.

That thing is still there.

This thing didn't seem to give up after waiting for a while, and still wanted to come in. The doorknob was twisted into a protruding and broken shape, and it was about to slip from the door precariously.

The wax figure of the mermaid outside the door is about to come in.

The audience in front of the Bailiu TV screen was kind-hearted, and they couldn't bear to close their eyes.

"It's rare to see a seed player... Hey, it's a pity."

"The main reason is that the dungeon of Siren Town is too disgusting. This is not the difficulty of a novice dungeon at all. Giving it to novices is completely killing people."

Bai Liu's brain was spinning rapidly, and his breathing slowed down.

The game clearly told him that these ghost monsters have weaknesses, and players can use their weaknesses to escape from these monsters, so the current way to break the game is to find the weaknesses that restrict the movement of this thing.

Bai Liu closed her eyes and recalled the whole process of staying in tonight.

As long as it is a game, it has a solution, and a game without a solution is the most rubbish. Bai Liu has been making horror games for so many years, and he is very sure that there must be something that hints at the weakness of other people's wax figures.

what is it…..

Bai Liu calmly began to sort out all the scenes where he met the mermaid wax figure.

The first time was at the fountain outside the hotel. Jeff exclaimed that he saw the wax figure of the mermaid move. The movement was silent, just turning behind the car. The wax figure of the mermaid didn’t look directly at them, but was watching in the water.

The second time was in the hotel lobby, a huge number of wax figures of various mermaids looked directly at them without moving.

The third time was in the hotel room. Except for the huge mermaid wax figure looking in the mirror, the other mermaid wax figures looked directly at Bai Liu. After Bai Liu fell asleep, they began to move. The mirror mermaid moved the fastest, but Bai Liu woke up. After that the wax figures don't move.

But obviously Bai Liu's staying awake is not a condition that restricts the movement of the mermaid wax figure, because the mermaid wax figure outside the door is ready to break in.

There will be no unbreakable situation in the game. There must be something on him that can restrict the movement of the mermaid wax figure.

It’s not something in the room, not in the hotel, it must be something brought by Bai Liu, because the hotel and the room can’t restrict the movement of the mermaid wax figure, which can be proved by the fact that the wax figure can freely enter and exit from Jeff’s room. a little.

what is it?

Mirror...water...sleep....look straight!

Bai Liu knew what it was.

Bai Liu stood up suddenly, he opened the door and looked directly at the wax figure of the mermaid.

The wax figure outside the door is so close that from Bai Liu's perspective, the face of this lifeless mermaid wax figure seems to be attached to the tip of Bai Liu's nose, its palm is still on Bai Liu's doorknob, its pure white and beadless eyes Look through the peephole to the lower right corner - that's where Bai Liu is hiding.

No wonder this thing must come in, it must have seen the white willow hidden in the lower right corner behind the door.

It stopped moving, its tail had already touched Bai Liu's toes, and at the last moment of entering Bai Liu's room, it stood still in front of Bai Liu's door.

Bai Liu breathed a sigh of relief, sure enough, the weak point of keeping this thing still is direct gaze.

All the people in front of Bailiu's small TV were stunned.

"I/fuck!! How did he think of it!! He didn't hesitate when he opened the door just now!"

"Ordinary novice players can't think of it at all. Even if they think about it, they don't dare to open the door. They only dare to look directly through the cat's eyes. It will be partially restricted, enough to break in."

"Wori, when he just looked at the mermaid wax figure, I got goosebumps!"

"What's his name, he's so awesome, this newcomer..."

The crowd gradually gathered around Bai Liu's small TV.

[168 people watched the player Bai Liu's small TV, and the player Bai Liu achieved the achievement of 100 rookies]

[102 people liked Bailiu's small TV, 143 people collected Bailiu's small TV, 3 people charged Bailiu's small TV, player Bailiu got 3 points]

Bai Liu's expression on the small TV was still calm and calm, as if he didn't feel that he had done anything extraordinary.

It is actually very simple to deduce that [human eyes] will limit the movement of the mermaid wax figure when it sees it.

Because after Bai Liu fell asleep, the wax figures started to move, and after waking up, the wax figures stopped instantly. The only difference before and after he fell asleep was that he opened his eyes, which means that [human sight] can Limits the movement of the mermaid figure.

But there is a trap here—that is, looking at this kind of thing through mirror objects will only weaken the movement speed of some mermaid wax figures, and you must look directly to completely stop the mermaid wax figures from moving.

Because under the direct view of human eyes, there are two kinds of wax figures that can move, the fountain wax figure at the entrance of the hotel and the mirror mermaid wax figure in the room.

The wax figure of the mermaid in the fountain pool outside the hotel looks into the water, so people are [looking directly at] the wax figure of the mermaid through the water. Although the wax figure of the mermaid is restricted and cannot move fast, it can still move slowly or even rotate, so it is Turn slowly at the door.

Among the wax figures of mermaids in the room, the mirror mermaid moves the fastest, and it is also because the mirror mermaid looks into the mirror, and people [see directly] the wax figure through the mirror, the restriction given is limited, so the mirror mermaid runs away. the fastest.

And the mermaid just looked at Bai Liu through the cat's eyes, so it can move. If Bai Liu just looked directly at the mermaid wax figure through the cat's eyes, although there will be certain restrictions, the mermaid wax figure should still be able to move.

Such a short distance, through the cat's eye, is definitely not enough to restrict the mermaid from moving and breaking in. If it is allowed to enter, the player will be pressed under the door, losing the condition of [human eyes looking directly at], the player will soon be cold.

But I have to say that under such circumstances, there are very few new players who can open the door to face the mermaid wax figure.

Most of the players panicked. Even if they deduced the condition of [directly looking at people's eyes], they didn't have the courage to verify it. Only Bai Liu, who wants money and life, has this kind of reasoning even if he is not 100% sure that his inference is correct. , but still calm and unreasonable.

["Siren Town Monster Book" mermaid wax figure panel refresh]

[Monster name: Mermaid wax figure (chrysalis state), amulet wax figure (cocoon state)]

[Weakness: Looking directly at the human eye (1/3)]

[Attack method: hatching]

The eyes of the mermaid wax figure are drooping, the head is tilted slightly to the right and down, the corners of the mouth are slightly raised with a hint of a smile, the fish tail is graceful, the body is white and flawless, and the posture reveals an indescribable secret beauty and divinity.

Once the wax figure freezes, the spine-chilling aggression disappears, and it becomes a wax figure of great aesthetic value, standing silently in front of the stranger's house at midnight on the seashore .

[Player Bailiu earns 3 points for watching players charge, and unlocks the game store]

[The points are too low to buy any items, please keep up the good work! 】

The player charged three points, Bai Liu understood a little bit, someone who watched it should have tipped him, and this unlocked product store, all the products are black and white, and the display status is [unavailable for purchase].

He glanced briefly, and found that this store had everything from daily necessities to weapons, and there were a lot of messy things, such as [heart intact], [potion of love at first sight], such incredible-sounding commodities also It is on sale, but correspondingly, the price of this product is also very high.

Bai Liu understood the sentence when he entered the game - [points can buy everything you want].

Bai Liu closed the merchandise store, and looked at the wax figure of the mermaid who remained motionless in front of him.

Now this thing is indeed not moving, but it is impossible for Bai Liu to stay up all night and confront this thing, and after this incident, Bai Liu has a new understanding of the destructive power of this thing.

He looked at the stainless steel handle that was about to fall off his door.

Judging from the performance of the wax figures in his room before, although this thing has huge destructive power, it seems that it can only be located by eyes, or in other words, it is only sensitive to things of the visual system. Once it is covered by a white cloth, there is no way to find Bai Liu. It is difficult to find him even in the same room.

In other words, the mermaid wax figure does not seem to have senses such as hearing and smell.

Otherwise, Bai Liu and so many mermaid wax statues are in the same room, even by listening to Bai Liu's breathing, it is easy to locate Bai Liu, and then unscrew Bai Liu's head like a doorknob. With this ability to unscrew the doorknob with his bare hands, he wouldn't be locked in the toilet closet and unable to get out.

….It’s really troublesome, there are still so many, it’s really a burden to keep them.

Bai Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, and a little evil thought in his heart - now there is a wax figure in front of him that does not move and let him fish, can he do some experiments on it, and experiment with what its weaknesses are, such as using fire? Baked it with a stick to kill it and break it up or something....

[Hint: If the player directly attacks the monster, if the monster does not die, the monster's hatred value will remain on the player for a long time, and it will always attack the player, reducing the player's survival rate]

Bai Liu touched his chin thoughtfully, he smiled, a small dimple that was harmless to humans and animals appeared on the right side of his face.

"Attacking it directly will cause it to hate me and take revenge on me, right..." Bai Liu said to himself, "Then if something happened to it, I can't be blamed."

Bai Liu repeated the old trick, wrapping the wax figure of the mermaid with a bed sheet and tying the opening underneath with a rope, and then he put the wax figure of the mermaid at the entrance of the hotel stairs with malicious intentions.

When the mermaid wax figure is invisible, it will walk around without a head. Bai Liu put the mermaid wax figure in this place just to let the wax figure fall down the stairs voluntarily.

Under the premise of having hatred, Bai Liu would not take the initiative to break these wax figures. It would be fine if he could break them directly, but if he couldn't break them, it would obviously cause trouble for himself.

But such a large number of wax figures of mermaids is not a small hidden danger. Bai Liu only has one pair of eyes. If he is in the model of a wooden figure, if he is surrounded by wax figures in 360 degrees without dead ends, the horizontal angle of view of human eyes is only 188 degrees at most, and Bai Liu can't turn his head back. Long eyes see all the fish wax figures, then he must die.

Bai Liu likes to do things that are more cost-effective. Although the game says that it is enough to use the weakness to escape from the monster, but he wants to know whether it is possible to directly destroy these wax figures in some way.

Or, do these wax figures have other Achilles' heels.

He would not take the initiative to smash or hit the mermaid wax figure, the risk was too great for him to take the risk—no one knew what would crawl out of the chrysalis or cocoon after it was broken.

But if the mermaid wax figure fell from the stairs because of his poor eyesight, it has nothing to do with him.

Bai Liu just wanted to do a small experiment to verify whether this thing could be smashed, so he retreated into the room.
