Real Cthulhu Running Game

"By the way, do you think Romero's wife is a player, or Romero's son is a player?" Liu Xing asked curiously.

Zhang Jingxu thought for a while and said, "I think it should be Romero's wife. After all, Romero's son is too young and generally cannot be a player."

Ishikawa Ling shrugged and said with a smile: "That's not necessarily the case. What if this player is lucky and happens to have a chance to get some kind of spell that can take other people's bodies, and then he lodges in the body of Romero's son? Or, to be more imaginative, that is not actually Romero’s son, but a corpse-eating cult believer suffering from dwarfism. He is here specifically to assist or monitor Romero?”

Ishikawa Ling's imagination is really big. . .

However, this possibility cannot be ruled out.

"Okay, it's pointless for us to discuss these things now. We can just arrest Romero's wife or son by then. What I'm more worried about now is that this time the cleanup of North Point will have consequences. What are the consequences?" The Yisi man said with some worry.

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and instantly understood what the Yi people were worried about.

At this point in time, the English official suddenly allowed Chris to take action against the Corpse Cult, and it was such a big move, which would definitely make the Corpse Cult angry.

Therefore, even if this big operation can achieve the effect of knocking down the mountain and shaking the tiger, as long as the English official does not plan to confront the Corpse Cult, then the English official will still need a scapegoat to appease the Corpse Cult's anger.

And this scapegoat is most likely to be Chris.

But Liu Xing doesn't think Chris doesn't know this.

So Liu Xing said: "I think Chris should also know that he may be used as a scapegoat. By then, it will be considered a light thing for Chris to lose his official position, so I think Chris would choose to do this because he has a back-up plan." Yes."

The Corpse Cult is very ruthless. Even if the English officials want to be good guys and protect Chris, the Corpse Cult will find an opportunity to attack and kill Chris.

Therefore, Chris should have prepared a backup plan to deal with the possible threat of the Corpse Cult.

"Chris' backup plan won't be us..." Ling Ishikawa said hesitantly.

Zhang Jingxu frowned and said with a wry smile: "It is indeed possible. After all, we players are the scapegoats. No matter what the blame is, we will be dumped on us, so the possibility of Chris choosing to let us take the blame is very high. , because we are all foreigners, and now even if we die in England, we can find any reason to excuse our families and just pay some money and be done with it."

Liu Xing nodded. What Zhang Jingxu said makes sense. After all, Cthulhu Team Games like to create all kinds of troubles for players, and the NPCs on the player side can jump to counterattack for any reason, and then let the players instantly Trapped in trouble.

Just like what Zhang Jingxu said just now, if Chris suddenly chooses to betray himself and his group, then he and his group will not only have to face the pursuit of the Corpse Cult, but will also become officially wanted criminals in England, and Without any foundation in England, it is a foolish dream for his group to escape from England. After all, England is an island country. As long as the English official pays close attention to the ferry and the airport, and the Corpse Food Cult comes out to attack the underground forces in England, then Liu Xing and his group will People will just be trapped and die in England.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing also began to worry a little, because it was really possible for Chris to do this. After all, his group and Chris only had a cooperative relationship. It was not a big deal to betray his partners before life and death. . .

Therefore, Liu Xing said: "Zhang Jingxu is right, we must be mentally prepared to be betrayed by Chris, because if the English official wants to find someone to take the blame, we are the best ones to take the blame, so we We still have to make preparations in advance, lest we have no place to escape when the time comes.”

As a result, Liu Xing and others made up their mind to prepare some things in the car after returning from this big operation. As long as the situation was not abnormal, they would forcefully leave the city and run away.

Of course, if Baruka can successfully solve the dense fog problem, then Liu Xing still feels that the English official will still choose to side with his group, but at that time the module has ended, and the official attitude of England It doesn't matter anymore. . .

"Okay, it's almost time. Let's go to North Point with Chris, hoping to catch Romero's wife and son." The Yisi man took the lead in leaving the room.

When everyone arrived, Chris took Liu Xing and others to the Manchester Police Station, equipped everyone with a submachine gun and an updated body armor, and then rode a bulletproof police car to North Point.

When dozens of police cars left the Manchester Police Station, Liu Xing heard a continuous sound of dice falling. It seemed that the KP of the White River City camp was calculating the success rate of the Manchester police raid on North Point.

Soon, the police car stopped at the main entrance of North Point. The police who arrived earlier had set up a temporary checkpoint, and most of the ordinary tourists and shops in North Point had been dispersed. Of course, there were some comparisons. "Literary and Art" stores choose to be unique and are still in business.

Chris took out a large map and pasted it on the side of the police car, and said: "The terrain of North Point is very complicated. This is because there are many alleys in North Point. These alleys divide North Point into multiple areas, and we will wait a moment. The area to be searched is the central area of ​​North Point previously controlled by Alexander's men. Now we name it point A, and subdivide it into four small areas, namely A1 to A4. If necessary, use the walkie-talkie to report Use these code names when you are in your own location, so now please remember the code names between the various areas in North Point, and don’t go to the wrong place when you need to move.”

Liu Xing looked at the map of North Point carefully and found that it was divided into five major areas, with the center as point A and the four directions of southeast, northwest and BCDE. Each major area was divided into four subdistricts. From the top To the bottom, from left to right is 1234.

So this code name is pretty easy to remember.

A minute later, after Chris felt that everyone had remembered it, he continued: "Point A, which we are going to later, was Alexander's largest drug trafficking area in the city of Manchester. It has a large number of entertainment venues. There is everything from nightclubs to bars, from Internet cafes to massage parlors, and 80% of these entertainment venues are Alexander's industry. Of course, they can also be said to be the industry of the Corpse Cult, so we have reason to suspect that these places have There are followers of the Corpse Eater Cult, so when the time comes we have the right to attack any targets that move, life or death!"

"Of course, it would be great if we could capture live corpse-eating cult believers. So when we confirm that the target is a corpse-eating cult believer and they have no ability to resist, we will try our best to force them to give up resistance. It's really not possible. If so, shoot them in non-vital parts to force them to stop moving, then use the plastic straps that will be distributed later to control the followers of the Corpse Food Cult, and then use the walkie-talkie to contact the command headquarters and ask the ordinary police responsible for mopping up the group to take away these followers. Followers of the Corpse Eater Cult.”

Because there are so many targets that need to be arrested this time, and the number of handcuffs that each police officer can carry is very limited, and the advance team responsible for taking the lead in entering North Point to carry out the large-scale cleaning targets are fully armed, and they can carry even more handcuffs. Less, so this is when lightweight and compact strapping tools like plastic strapping are needed. You must know that it is basically impossible for ordinary people to break free from plastic strapping without the help of external force.

"Next, we will send an advance team to each small area. Each advance team has twenty people. They will check all the buildings in their area, including ordinary residential buildings. If any traces of the Corpse Food Cult are found, You can call the command center to send additional troops, or ask for support from surrounding teams. Of course, in order to avoid a situation where an advance team is captured by the followers of the Corpse Food Cult and then sends out false information, we need to add additional personnel when the conversation is completed. The last word 'finished' is to remind other advance teams - our advance team has been captured, okay, do you have any questions? If not, we are ready to set off." Chris said.

Liu Xing and others shook their heads and said there was no problem.

As a result, Liu Xing and others followed Chris, and after joining several other police officers appointed by Chris, they entered North Point and went straight to area A1.

I have to say that Liu Xing, who was walking at the end, always had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if he was playing "Demolition No. 6". The two operators at the front holding explosion-proof shields led the way, while Chris was equipped with A sledgehammer is always ready to smash down walls and doors. . . As for my group, they are all new operators who only know how to "chunk tug".

Soon, Liu Xing and his party arrived at the designated location.

"Next we need to enter the largest bar in North Point - the Black Hand Bar. It was the earliest bar opened in Alexander, so we have reason to believe that the Black Hand Bar is one of the strongholds of the Corpse Cult in North Point. Now we have notified the owner of the Black Hand Bar Check it out, and if they don’t open the door later, I’ll have to use the hammer on my hand to speak.” Chris said, pointing to a bar in front that had a sign lit up.

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and the sky was already dark.

Fortunately, the door of this bar was open, and a bald man in his forties was guarding the door with a smile.

"Hey, Director Chris, why are you here in person, and why are you bringing so many armed colleagues? Isn't it just a routine matter?" The bald man said with some confusion.

Chris laughed and said: "After Alexander's death recently, Manchester has been short of someone who can control the situation, so the security problems in Manchester have become more and more serious recently, especially the drug problem in North Point, so the above The people decided to conduct a large-scale cleaning operation in North Point to clean up the rubbish that disrupted public security in North Point, so we ask Mr. John to cooperate with our operation."

John nodded and said with a smile: "It turns out that after Mr. Alexander's sudden death, the gangs in Manchester city did have some changes. There are many self-righteous people who want to be Mr. Alexander's heirs, so recently in North Point Gang fights happen every day. Mr. Chris, you really need to straighten things up. Well, Mr. Chris, I won’t waste your time. You can check wherever you want now. Our gangster bar will always cooperate with you. Police work.”

Looking at the confident John, Liu Xing began to suspect that the Black Hand Bar really had nothing to do with the Corpse Food Cult.

However, after entering the Black Hand Bar, Liu Xing immediately saw a ghoul statue placed on the bar counter.

"It seems that this is the territory of the Corpse Cult, but I don't know why John is so confident. Has he already moved all the Corpse Cult followers away, or is he acting with us?" Liu Xing said in a low voice.

Chris shook his head and said: "This John only became the person in charge of the Black Hand Bar a year ago. Before that, John worked in the hottest bar in London. It is said that Alexander specially hired him with a high salary. According to our investigation, there is more than 80% possibility that this John has nothing to do with the Corpse Cult and is just an ordinary person, so it is normal that he does not know about the Corpse Cult."

Liu Xing nodded, it seemed that John was just a scapegoat.

At this time, Ishikawa Ling began to contact kp Li Shunsan, "kp, can we do an investigation or inspiration inside the bar now?"

kp Li Shunchan laughed and said: "Of course, but there is no need to do the investigation, because you have already discovered the ghoul statue, but you can also make an inspiration judgment on the possible entrance to the secret passage, but this time it is still a secret passage Vote."

"Then let's get started. Each of us needs to make an inspiration determination." Liu Xing said.

The sound of the dice hitting the ground was heard.

Then, Liu Xing had an idea in his mind - follow the same example. Since the secret passage can be found in the employee lounge of the bar in the city, it should also be possible to find the secret passage in the employee lounge of this gangster bar. Something was discovered.

"I think we should check out the employee lounge first. After all, there are not many areas in places like bars that are not open to the public, and the employee lounge is the largest private area. Moreover, we also discovered a secret passage in the employee lounge before. "Ishikawa Ling said.

The Yishi shook his head and said with a smile: "The Corpse Eater Cult probably won't put all the entrances to the secret passages in the employee lounge, so I think we can go to the manager's office and have a look."
