Chapter 041: Transaction with Mother (Part 1)
(You activated the mask's mind-reading ability, but it still didn't work. You think it's because you asked the wrong question.)
(Woman: "I don't believe it. How do you know where my body is?")
(You pull the woman's emaciated body out of her kangaroo pants.)
(The woman's face changes drastically.)
(Woman: "Give me back my body and I'll tell you a secret.")
(You: “What secret?”)
(Woman: "I can tell you the dean's weakness, and I can tell you how to kill him.")
(You use your mind reading ability again and ask the woman if she is lying.)
(The mask tells you that the woman is not telling the truth.)
(You: “I know his weakness. I don’t need this.”)
(Woman : "So what do you need?")
(You think for a moment, pointing to the doll on the woman's lap.)
(The woman is shocked.)
(Woman: "This is my daughter's legacy. I can't give it to you.")
(You: “Everything is about equal exchange.”)
(Woman: “Let me think about it.”)
(The woman holds the doll and looks at it for a moment.)
(Woman: "I agree to trade with you.")
(Hello.")
(You place the woman's body on the floor.)
(The woman steps down from her chair and hands the doll to you.)
(You are looking at the doll when you hear a teeth-grinding sound.)
(You look up.)
(The woman opens her mouth and devours her own body.)
(She was completely black, with only her eyes glowing red.)
(She turned into a monster covered with black hair, looking like Petez, but much bigger than the ordinary Petez.)
(Woman: "Give me back my doll!")
(The woman lunges at you.)
(You immediately swallow a red pill and put on the elephant mask.)
(You are no match for women.)
(You were torn in two by a woman.)
(Your eyes turn red.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
Gu Yi sat on the toilet and touched his stomach.
This was probably the most miserable death he had ever imagined. After the woman turned into a monster, she tore him in half like tearing a chicken leg.
Transforming into a monster and putting on an elephant mask is the strongest form that Gu Yi can achieve at the moment, but he is still no match for the woman.
"I've long felt that there's something wrong with this woman."
Gu Yi patted his thigh in annoyance.
Since this woman is so unreasonable, I can only use some rogue methods.
(Backtracking begins!)
(You stand in front of the door to the secret room.)
(You put on Toto's handmade mask and came to the woman.)
(When the woman saw you, she immediately raised her head.)
(Woman: "Who are you? Why do you have my daughter's mask? What do you want to do?")
(You: “I’m here to negotiate terms with you.”)
(Woman: "Negotiation? What conditions?")
(You: “I can give you your body.”)
(You took the woman's body out of her kangaroo pants .)
(After the woman saw her own body, she stood up excitedly, and you quickly hid the body.)
(Woman: “Give it to me!”)
(You: "I can give it to you, but you have to give me the doll in your hand. This is a fair trade.")
(Woman: "Give me the body first, and I'll give you the doll.")
(You: “No, you have to give me the doll first, then I’ll give it to you.”)
(Woman: "You have no right to bargain with me. If you don't give it to me, I can kill you and take back my body.")
(You: "If you dare to kill me, I will break the mask on my face first.")
(You pull a hammer from your kangaroo pants and place it on your mask.)
(The woman screams. )
(Woman: “You can’t do that!”)
(You grin.)
(As you speculated, “I” is not dead, so as long as you break the mask, the real “I” will also die.)
(Woman: "Don't do such an extreme thing. My daughter still has hope of survival. Please don't hurt her.")
(You: "Then you just follow my instructions and give me the doll first.")
(The woman compromised.)
(She glances at the doll in her hand and uses her hair to pass it to you.)
(After losing the doll, the woman's face withered at a visible rate.)
(You look at the doll from side to side and don't see anything special about it, but you see a zipper on the back of the doll.)
(You unzip it and find a red access card inside.)
(Woman: "Give me my body now.")
(You: “Give it to you? Humph, give it to you and then let you kill me? Dream on!”)
(You put the doll away and leave the secret room.)
(The woman's heart-wrenching roar echoed throughout the office.)
(You take the doll and leave the room.)
(Your eyes turn red.)
(You take off your mask.)
(The mask is shedding tears of blood, and you notice the same words written all over it.)
("what goes around comes around.")
("what goes around comes around.")
("what goes around comes around.")
(You feel your heart beating fast, just like it did when you picked up the woman's body in the office on the third floor.)
(You: "Why do you want to punish me instead of your good mother? Wasn't she the first to do evil? If I didn't lie to her, she would kill me!")
("what goes around comes around.")
("Evil will be punished...")
("Bad news...")
(Your spirit is broken.)
(You have completely turned into a monster.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
"Shit, whose side is this Toto on?"
Gu Yi opened his eyes again and cursed under his breath.
The mental shock he suffered during the deduction was too great, causing the infection in reality to deepen. He found that black hair had begun to grow on his left wrist.
Gu Yi shook his head unwillingly. He continued to close his eyes and think about countermeasures.
(Deduction begins!)
(You sit on the toilet and reflect on your experience.)
(Obviously, this time you broke your promise and were punished by my rules and turned into a monster.)
(The so-called Toto seems to have a mental obsession with cleanliness.)
(She set up this scarlet rule, ostensibly to curse the dean, but in reality to restrict your actions.)
(If you keep doing evil, breaking your promises, and not helping others in need, the difficulty of the dungeon will increase significantly, and you may even trigger the instant death flag.)
(You frown in thought.)
(You feel that you may not have violated the law of "evil deeds will be punished".)
(Because this rule subtly affects the difficulty of your clearance and will never cause you to die immediately.)
(You think the real reason for your sudden death is that you did not abide by the Pig-Headed Man's code and your behavior did not meet the standards of a businessman.)
(The pig head mask represents a merchant in the dungeon world.)
