Real Game: I Exposed the Old Ones

night.

mist.

breeze.

The neon lights flash with colorful light, just like the restless heart.

Under the temptation of desire, urban men and women leave their homes one after another in search of short-term excitement and joy.

Zhu Zheng was sitting near the door of a bar.

In the restless environment, he looked like Liu Xiahui who was sitting still, with a calm face and a glass of mixed wine on the table in front of him.

A sexy redhead with almost half of her breasts exposed came over holding a goblet.

Before anyone could get close, the strong scent of perfume hit his face first, making him want to sneeze.

The red-haired girl has charming eyes and slightly parted red lips.

Little handsome boy, five hundred times.

She glanced at Carter and added, Count you two.

Carter felt a little moved.

Zhu Zheng shook his head and responded calmly, It's expensive, eighty at most.

Tch, poor guy. The red-haired girl walked away holding the wine glass.

Zhu Zheng tapped on the table, bringing back Carter's soul.

That is to say, you always dream about a strange man who made a certain agreement with you and gave you something?

But have you forgotten the content of the dream?

After coming out of Miskatonic University, Zhu Zheng dragged Carter to this pub. After a few drinks, he got the information he wanted to know from Carter.

Zhu Zheng had some vague guesses in his mind.

The man with the fleur-de-lis might be another Carter who used the Silver Key.

He gave something to Carter

Could it be the silver key with magical power?

You think it's ridiculous too, right?

Carter was already a little tipsy. He drank the drink in front of him in one gulp, and then called the bartender for another drink. Actually, this is the main reason why I study mysticism. I want to know what I have forgotten.

Do you believe that dream? Zhu Zheng asked without answering.

Yes, I believe it. It is by no means a figment of my imagination. It is very important to me. I have a hunch. Carter said firmly.

Okay, I'll help you find the truth of the dream together. Zhu Zheng replied with a smile.

I read that right, you are indeed my good brother!

Carter patted his chest, suddenly came over and whispered, How about I pay five hundred?

.

I didn’t expect Carter to look so thick-eyed and play so wildly.

Zhu Zheng rejected Carter's proposal and discussed some details of the dream with Carter.

The man with iris flowers mentioned grandpa and the cave in his dream. Did your grandpa leave something in a certain cave?

Carter's grandfather was a weirdo who often conducted some bizarre research.

In order to avoid the eyes of his family and neighbors, Carter's grandfather often walked into the mountains and forests alone and stayed there all day.

Maybe he once created a secret base in the mountains and forests and left something there.

Carter shook his head.

It's been so long, I can't find that place at all, and I've looked through the collection of books left by my grandfather, but there's no relevant record at all.

Perhaps the clue is hidden somewhere in your ancestral home? It is not placed with your grandfather's relics. I think it is better for us to look for it together. Zhu Zheng reminded.

You are right, my friend.

Carter was very happy that Zhu Zheng believed in him and worked with him to find the truth in the dream.

They walked out side by side.

Just then the door of the tavern was pushed open and a man walked in.

Excuse me.

The man happened to bump into Carter, and he quickly apologized and acted quite politely.

It's okay, you're welcome. Carter responded politely.

Zhu Zheng supported Carter, his eyes swept across the man unintentionally, and his eyes suddenly froze.

He saw a strange piece of jewelry on the man.

It was a metal nameplate with a golden color. There was a strange pattern engraved on the nameplate, which seemed to be composed of three tentacles that were constantly wriggling and rotating.

What's wrong with you? Carter pulled Zhu Zheng.

it's okay no problem.

Zhu Zheng withdrew his gaze from the strange design and walked out of the tavern with Carter.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this cocktail party.

The man walked onto the stage openly and grabbed the microphone while the singer looked confused, I hope you all will spend an unforgettable night here.

The sacred moment is coming, and I want to sing a song to express my inner excitement.

People who had been anesthetized by alcohol raised their glasses high and started cheering.

The owner of the tavern stopped the security guard who was about to take action.

Wait first, keep an eye on him and see what he wants to do, if he is here to cause trouble.

The boss sat on a chair and took a sip of wine to cover up the fierce look in his eyes.

The man cleared his throat.

I dance in the bright garden, surrounded by vines, flowers and weeds. I dance where the fire falls. The unknown king is coming, bringing what we think we need, and taking away the common ways of the world!

The man's singing had a strange rhythm to it, and everyone was unconsciously intoxicated by the singing and began to hum quietly.

A flash of yellow light falls from the ceiling

No! When did I install yellow lanterns?

The boss stared at the ceiling for a long time, suddenly realized something was wrong, and suddenly woke up.

Fear came over me like a tidal wave.

He tried to stand up, but the air seemed to be sticky, holding him firmly to the chair, unable to escape.

At this time, more and more drinkers joined the chorus.

The man danced.

His dance movements are full of a strange sense of power, and many of his movements have completely surpassed human limits.

The wonderful moon rises in the night sky, and the moonlight shines wonderfully on the ground, shining on that dark city, which is the lost Carcosa.

Whether it was the drinkers or the staff in the tavern, everyone fell into madness.

They overturned tables and danced to beautiful songs.

The dance became increasingly crazier and bloodier.

Some people pulled their arms off due to excessive force, another danced to the point of breaking the head of their dance partner, and some people's difficult dance movements caused their bodies to be excessively twisted, with bone stubble showing through the skin.

Blood and life become the best annotation for this dance.

In the hall, people were bathed in yellow light, dancing a blasphemous dance that was not tolerated by the world, and no one was awake.

Tonight, the glory of Aldebaran shines.

What's wrong, what are you thinking about?

Oh, nothing.

Zhu Zheng came to his senses.

He and Carter had already gotten into a taxi home and were not far from their destination.

But Zhu Zheng suddenly felt some uneasiness.

It seems that I missed something.

Maybe I'm overthinking it.

Zhu Zheng shook his head and chuckled, looking subconsciously out of the car window.
