Chapter 064: Wedding Procession (Part 2)

(You pinch your thigh hard.)
(You: “I’m not dreaming. There really are a bunch of weirdos out there.”)
(Father: “This…”)
(You hear footsteps outside the house.)
(You know it's the cat bride coming out from the third floor.)
(You try to hide under your parents' bed.)
(Suddenly you feel a warm current on the ground, and the cat bride's head pops out from under the floor, giving you a weird smile.)
(Your heart goes into cardiac arrest and your pupils dilate.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
"Damn it...Is there no one in this family that can be trusted?"
Gu Yi opened his eyes and bit his lips.
If no one else can be relied upon, then you can only rely on yourself!
"Backtrack!"
(Backtracking begins!)
(You hear the sound of suona outside.)
(You take out the forged key and go straight to the third floor.)
(You unlock the door and go to the attic on the third floor.)
(Father heard the noise and scolded you on the second floor, but you pretended not to hear.)
(You listen to the suona outside the house. They are getting closer.)
(There is a rustling sound in the unlocked room on the third floor, and you stand by the door and look over.)
(The cat bride gradually appears on the chair in the room, and she is slowly turning her head towards you.)
(You feel a palpitation and a tightness in your chest.)
(The cat bride walks towards you and gently lifts her veil, revealing her whiskers.)
(You resist the discomfort and open another locked door.)
(You rush into the room and pick up the black box.)
(The black box starts to vibrate, and you smash it towards the cat bride.)
(The python crawls out of the box and fights with the cat bride.)
(You take the opportunity to escape through the window.)
(The wedding procession stopped in the yard in front of the old house and did not leave for a long time.)
(You hear the cat bride scream, and the python wins.)
(There was a sound of smashing in the house, followed by screams from my parents and sister.)
(You fall into an endless void.)
(You gradually lose consciousness.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
Driving a tiger to devour a wolf is not only dangerous, but it will also bring disaster to one's parents and sister.
It seems that there is another hidden rule in this copy, which is that you cannot let your family members get hurt, otherwise you will also be swallowed by the void.
It is not okay to let your family be cannon fodder.
"calm……"
The sound of the suona was very close, and Gu Yi could even see a few whiskers on the mouse groom's face.
He sat down on the edge of the bed calmly and closed his eyes.
(Deduction begins!)
(You sit on the edge of the bed and think.)
(The crisis of the wedding procession cannot be overcome by brute force.)
(You must have missed some key information. The system must have left you some hints, but you ignored them.)
(You take out your phone and diary at the same time, flipping back and forth through the entry for May 12.)
(You finally found the problem.)
(Both your sister's diary and your diary mention a character called "The Joker".)
(However, there were no clowns in this wedding procession.)
(Also, the wedding procession is obviously of classical Chinese style, while the clown is of a more modern style. If there is a clown following the big sedan chair, it would definitely be out of place.)
(So, where is the clown mentioned in the diary?)
(The sound of the suona is getting closer.)
(You push the door open and see your parents and sister sitting at the dining table.)
(They all look at you with strange expressions.)
(Mother: “Why did you just get up?”)
(There are footsteps upstairs, and you know it's the Cat Bride appearing.)
(A drop of cold sweat dripped down your forehead. The Rat Bridegroom was already standing in the yard of the old house on his horse.)
(Father: "Please sit down and eat.")
(You nodded, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and you felt a cold wind blowing behind you.)
(Since there are no clowns, then you pretend there are clowns?)
(You grit your teeth and point your chopsticks outside the house.)
(You: “Why is there a clown blowing up balloons here?”)
(Sister: “Huh? There really is a clown!”)
(Mother: “Don’t move.”)
(Sister: "I want the clown to blow up a puppy balloon for me.")
(Mother: "You are already big kids, why do you still need balloons?")
(The suona outside the house stops abruptly.)
(You look outside the house, and the wedding procession disappears, leaving only a clown and a group of elementary school students.)
(You terminated the game!)
Gu Yi opened his eyes and relaxed his whole body.
Solving the puzzle is not enough, the remaining task is to find out why.
Gu Yi put on his clothes and walked out of the room.
My parents and sister were already sitting at the dining table waiting for dinner.
Gu Yi sat in his seat as if nothing had happened, pointed outside the door and said, "Why is there a clown outside?"
"Clown? Where are the clowns?"
My sister craned her neck and looked out the door.
The mother impatiently pulled her sister and knocked on the table, "Sit down and eat."
"Mom, the clown is blowing up balloons. I want a puppy balloon..."
"You're already big kids , why do you need balloons? Eat first."
"oh……"
My sister nodded and picked up the bowl and chopsticks with some frustration.
Gu Yi let out a long sigh.
The clown was playing a game with the children and didn't pay any attention to the family.
Gu Yi was thinking while eating.
On the first day, I wrote in my diary that “I” had a car accident, so I triggered the flag of being hit by a car when I was picking up my sister yesterday.
I wrote about the strange wedding procession and the clown the next day, so I encountered these strange creatures at breakfast today.
According to this logic...
On the seventh day of his birthday, he would see his sister transform into a monster and kill him?
Could it be that the diary is some kind of prop with predictive power?
It may not necessarily be a diary of the past, but a diary of the present?
There is no clock in this world , and I can only calculate time by countdown.
There is a calendar for 2022 in the room. Could this be a trap set by the copy to mislead his sense of time?
wrong!
This contradicts the background introduction in the copy. It has been a year since the "family of three" moved into the old house, and the 2022 calendar should not be misleading.
Gu Yi bit his lip, unable to come up with a reasonable explanation for a moment.
——Since I can’t figure out why for now, let’s just let it go.
Gu Yi relaxed his frown and looked at his mother.
"Mom, how are you feeling lately?"
"Me?" The mother looked at Gu Yi in surprise, "Why do you suddenly care about me?"
"Because I noticed that you don't look very well recently."
When Gu Yi was searching his parents' room yesterday, he found cancer treatment drugs hidden under his mother's dressing table, so he tried this.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine."
"That's right." The father nodded and said, "You are about to take the college entrance examination, so don't ask about family matters."
"Um."
Gu Yi nodded.
From the current point of view, parents should be on their side.
In order not to distract her children, the mother kept her illness a secret.
When children encounter a strange wedding procession, they will do their best to delay the arrival of danger.
Therefore, as long as Gu Yi doesn't make them angry and tries his best to listen to them, his parents can still communicate with each other.
"Dad , can I ask you a question?"
"you say."
"What's on the third floor?"
