I, BOSS, just want to live a peaceful life

Chapter 147 "Practice Ritual"

He hummed an intermittent ditty while walking in the familiar corridor.

This castle has always been his home, the place where he grew up, and the world where almost all his memories are placed.Those small, square rooms are his little world, and he is extremely familiar with all of them.

He used to like to secretly watch his brother's confident appearance in the lobby of the "first floor", and he used to like to watch his brother's work in many rooms on the "second floor". floor, because it is the best place to play hide-and-seek with my brother.

Although they have long since lived in this old house, there are so many precious memories of him and his brother here, and it is still impossible to let go of it.

There is no way to get angry with Kujo Josuke just because of this castle, he sighed, the boss is the boss after all, and as a subordinate, he is the first to work honestly.Since the guy Kujo Josuke can get the old house in Pennsylvania here, he can't do anything about it.

Um, don't know my name? !Ah, bad!He seems to have forgotten the part of self-introduction, sorry, sorry~ (stick out tongue)

Known as [Magician] Hanawa Chizuru, male, he is the second son of the Hanawa family, a famous heretic magician family in Japan~
The stand-in ability "Fatal Love" can turn the selected person into a puppet of one's own love, and complete control can be achieved after passing a special ceremony.Not only can the puppet's sanity be preserved, but even the time flow of the puppet's body can be suspended forever at the moment the substitute ability takes effect.

As a magician, he is also very talented, and his origin attribute is [Manipulation], so he is born to be the best of the golems!

The thing I like is the older brother, the ideal is to be with the older brother forever (now it has been realized!), and the thing I hate. Rather than hate it, it is a disturbing thing!

"Because I've been pretending to be a girl for too long, I can't change my tone of voice or something." "Why is my double Fatal Love capable of Kenji? Why can't I force my brother to talk to me?" "Now I The puppet I’m wearing seems to have expired, it’s hard to find a girl who looks like me when I was young, it’s really troublesome.” “Why does my real body grow so fast (it seems to be almost 1.9 meters. QAQ)" "I'm still underage, why do I have to work for a cold-blooded boss like a social animal—"

Well, that's all for now!

What I want to do now is to catch the escaped kitten and give her the final blow!Hanawa Chizuru pursed her mouth and muttered complainingly: If the boss is still there, I can't be lazy at work, I really want to find my brother after work is over!

However, Hanawa Chizuru was not in a hurry. After all, the current attribute of this castle is similar to the existence of an inherent enchantment. It is impossible for Matthew Kyrielight to escape. Moreover, he still has hostages in his hands. !
Thinking of Fujimaru Tachika who was still in the attic, Hanawa Chizuru smiled. That Fujimaru Tachika had obviously noticed something was wrong, but he was helpless because he had no way to prove his conjecture.Sure enough, the stand-in ability is really useful, whether it's his "Deadly Love" or the dead loli's "Fantasy Rubik's Cube".
"Fantasy Rubik's Cube". Hanawa Chizuru thinks of Mash Kyrielight's expression when he saw Fujimaru Tatsuka turning a blind eye to her, such an unbelievably sad expression, it really makes people feel happy.

With such a happy mood, hurry up and finish the work!This way, I can get off work and go back to rest earlier!Hanawa Chizuru thought that with the eyes of the puppet, he could easily find the hiding place of Mash Kyrielight.So he started humming an out-of-tune tune again, smiling and preparing to walk towards the little cat's hiding place.

The young girl's face was fresh and lovely, her ebony-like black hair hung smoothly over her shoulders, and her shining eyes seemed to be embedded with two black pearls.Even in such a dark place, this girl's doll is like a sunflower exuding vitality, who can see through that this is just his disguise?

[It is a slow and delayed pain, but it is impossible to ignore.You looked down at the blood engraved on your left forearm, and bit your lip. 】

[The clue given at this time should be that the password is correct.But at this moment, rather than joy, what comes up in your heart is more disgust. 】

[It must be ridiculous to be trapped in a small room like this and being played around by others, right?You smiled at yourself mockingly, and the man behind the scenes was someone you once thought was your friend. When you think that maybe Hanawa Chizuru has been looking at you with a smile, you feel that you can't hold back your anger. 】

【You broke away from the puppet that had stopped functioning long ago, and after taking a deep breath for a few seconds, you finally decided to put time first.Your emotions are far less important than Matthew Kyrielight's life. This is an obvious fact, so you hurriedly wiped the blood on your arm and prepared to go to the room with the password. 】

[L, O, V, E, R, you enter these five letters into the combination lock one by one, and with a crisp sound, the closed door is indeed opened.You rush into it, staring wide-eyed for something that might be useful, until a valve in the corner grabs your attention. 】

[This valve. You think of the previous shower head in the hallway.It's because of this thing that you are now in a dilemma, but if you have this valve, you can go to the kitchen and turn off the floodgates in the whole room!This way, you have more options whether to put the lit candles on the birthday cake or just walk away with the lantern! 】

【You couldn't help being a little excited, and walked to the kitchen in a slightly relieved mood. Feeling that the wound on your arm didn't hurt so much, you shut off the main water source in the kitchen in a few clicks. 】

【You walk quickly to the small living room and look at the birthday cake on the table.The birthday cake is placed in the center of the exquisite white porcelain plate, and the gold wires outlined at the corners reveal a luxurious atmosphere. You look at the silk-made tablecloth on the table and think to yourself. 】

[Although it seems that "older brother Hanawa Shokaku" has done too much to "younger brother Hanawa Chizuru" and deceived everyone that his younger brother has a terminal illness, but now you don't feel that everything in this attic It was Hanawa Chizuru's revenge on Hanawa Xianghe. 】

[On the one hand, the luxurious decoration and careful decoration here cannot be faked. Even people who don't know the situation can see that this room is definitely not a perfunctory work; on the other hand, it is what you have learned in the diary However, there is not a word of resentment in Hanawa Chizuru's diary from the beginning to the end, and she even clearly expressed her concern for her brother Hanawa Xianghe. 】

[Also, from what you and Sister Hanawa...no, brother, I have learned all the way, although Chizuru Hanawa claimed to be "sister" outside, but this is more like a prank than revenge, he has always been very clingy Hanawa Xianghe, and it seems that the relationship between the two brothers is very good. 】

【However, if that's the case... then what are the traps along the way?You still feel a dull pain in your arm, not to mention those deadly killing attempts that you avoided before.These traps are not trivial. If you are not serious or unprepared, it is not impossible to be seriously injured or die! 】

[This room is a birthday surprise prepared by younger brother Hanawa Chizuru for older brother Hanawa Xianghe, why does it contain so many death scares! ?If the relationship between the two brothers is good, you can't figure it out no matter how you think about it, you are in hesitation at this moment.Do you believe that the birthday cake in front of you is not dangerous and put the candles in it, or should you give up and leave the attic with the lantern? 】

【Insist on deciphering, maybe you can find the mirror and leave the castle, but it is more likely to lose your life here; leave the attic, return to the embrace of darkness, find nothing, and become Matthew's burden again.The more you look at these two choices, the more hesitant you become, and the heavy pressure on your heart makes you almost out of breath. 】

[Story branch: What are you going to do? ] (Please choose carefully, the choice of this option will affect the subsequent development of the plot)

[Leave the attic and return to the third floor with the lantern] [Stay in the attic and insert the lit candle on the cake]

"...I really didn't expect it, no wonder I didn't guess it before, who would have thought that this women's clothing is two people?" Kyle was speechless, and was troubled by the revelation of the plot: "Sisters are actually brothers This first level is the level of the Hanawa sisters...um...brothers, then there will be some levels of Lalier Svendik after this?"

"The anchor's prediction is right. I'm afraid that these amusement park projects are all small levels created by the boss. I feel that the difficulty of this chapter can catch up with the combination of all the previous levels? Is it my illusion?"

"No, obviously not, I'm afraid it's not the negative BUFF of Kujo Jotaro, a powerful supporter who joined the team! Think about it, in the eyes of Kujo Josuke, you have kidnapped his father soon! Of course, Josuke will decide to give Let's see some color."

"So just give me the pink in the attic? This easter egg plot is okay, a family of brothers is not in good spirits, the younger brother controls, the older brother controls (?), why don't you go home and love and kill each other? Why come here to find Guda You son of a bitch."

"Hey, don't you guys always care about these gossips?? Look at the countdown in the upper right corner of some interfaces, there is an option to choose in this column! Don't talk about it and forget it!!!"

When Kyle saw the last barrage, he realized that he didn't have much time to think.The counting sound of the background music "Dengdeng——" seems to be counting down to death, which makes people feel upset.

"To be honest, I'm not very sure which one to choose now." Kyle thought about it and finally chose to tell the truth. He hoped to get some inspiration from the barrage: "This easter egg story should be coming to an end soon. This is also the last option.”

"If this birthday cake is a dangerous trap, wouldn't it be very bad for a human being, Fujimaru Tachika, to be injured here soon? But if you choose to run away with a lantern, isn't it a waste of time? In the end, the mirror didn't I found it, but I didn’t find the way out, and I have to go back to the third floor to be harassed by those shadows.”

What a headache, Kyle would rather waste a little time here than let the ending part of this easter egg plot have too much trouble.He scratched his head and turned to look at the reaction in the barrage.

"Of course you choose the first one. If you choose the second one to order a birthday cake, it will definitely be a problem. It's okay if you get injured, but I'm afraid that even if it's not a direct GG!"

"The upstairs is really a person from the heart, let me just say it straight, if you don't get the key item like the mirror, you will definitely get stuck in the end! What's the use of doing nothing here now? And you actually have the heart to insist on it?" During the battle, you ran out to rest in desperation?" "The balance of all things, anchor, roll the dice, luck is also a kind of strength!"

"I think the birthday cake should be fine. This Hanawa Chizuru obviously cares about his brother. I think what looks like a deadly trap to Gudazi may be just a joke to the two brothers. He is a 13-year-old genius." A magician, a stand-in ability holder, something that can threaten their lives. I don't think there is anything in this attic."

"Then doesn't this mean that what Fujimaru Tachika experienced is a joke?" Kyle frowned, but still moved the mouse to the second option: "That's right. People are always called geniuses for a reason, no Probably lost his life because of this kind of pediatric joke."

"But what if someone's standard is that of a genius? Then people with mediocre abilities like Gu Dazi can't resist the standard of genius, and there is danger?"

Kyle, who originally wanted to choose one, closed his eyes, only the occasional rolling under the eyelids could make people see his nervousness, as if he was sinking, Kyle said: "But it's useless to say these things, if you want to play in this kind of game If you want to go on, you must not hesitate to make a choice.”

[Stay in the attic and insert the lit candles on the cake] (selected)

Stepping on the last second of the countdown, the time on the game screen starts to flow again.

[You finally decided to stay in the attic, you walked forward slowly, and slowly inserted the burning candle on the birthday cake.The cylindrical candles sank little by little, and the fresh cream was squeezed aside like overflowing, dripping onto the satin-like tablecloth. 】

【You are very careful, and you are also very scared, but you know you can't just leave the attic empty-handed.If you go back outside without getting the mirror, the biggest possibility is that you will be eaten up by the shadows as a burden to Mash. 】

【You concentrate and watch the candle flames flickering faintly on the cake. Maybe it's a hallucination. You feel as if you heard the sound of ticking. 】

[click, click, click]

[In the quiet attic, the counting sound echoed like a countdown to death.It's not your illusion, but the real voice coming from the birthday cake in front of you! 】

[You heard the pure child's voice, as if it came from a tape, and the slightest noise can't cover up the yearning and admiration in the singing: "happy birthday to you——happy birthday to you——"]

【"Happy birthday, brother!"】

【"My ceremony is complete!"】

-

She didn't choose to leave the attic, Hualun Xianghe thought, now it's up to her to catch that chance.

Although, death may be happier than living.
