044: Change the Quest Line, the Identity of the Mother of Evil?
"Ding Dong"~
Tip: Found a special attribute, which has been automatically picked up for you. Acting skill +2.
…
This is one of the attribute balls that Ryosuke Kitahara picked up under the dinner table.
Current: Kitahara Ryosuke, level 12, experience value 21%, strength (qualified), physique (weak), speed (weak), spirit (excellent).
Skills: [Strengthened Eye of True Sight], [Intermediate Meditation], remaining skill points are 0.
Special: Calmness +1, General Weird Event Experience +3, Acting Skill +3.
…
This is his current level and status as a spiritualist.
The attribute ball with +2 acting skill told Kitahara Ryosuke that the warm hospitality shown by Mother Wei before Chunxia left was an act.
That's why the weird girl becomes uneasy.
It is said that the weird mother can send two E-level weirdos to the ICU with just a look. Chunxia is F+, so it is reasonable to be scared.
In other words, "She is opposed to me finding a girlfriend..."
Looking at Chun Xia's performance after coming to the Beihara family, she is not particularly good, but she has a lively personality, is good at chatting, and has good acting skills. She is not the type to dislike her elders.
Kitahara Ryosuke was lying on the bed in the bedroom on the second floor, with his hands behind his head and looking at the ceiling.
"A mother is firmly opposed to her son looking for a girlfriend regardless of the indiscretion, and there are more or less chain plots."
"So no wonder I had a showdown with her and she didn't care at all."
"With tonight's plot, she will definitely pay more attention to and favor me. With this favor, my safe survival time will increase a lot."
This is Hakuba Yingzi's analysis and Kitahara Ryosuke's comprehensive judgment based on the actual situation.
What's more amazing is that after Kitahara Ryosuke repeated Mieko's words at the bathroom door, Hakuba Eiko and Takeda Mika agreed that what his friend's mother said was ironic.
"What she really means is to help her son by herself, not by relying on her girlfriend."
Facts also proved their suspicions.
The mother-in-law was so hospitable because of her son. Kitahara Ryosuke had only been out of their sight for a few minutes when Chun Xia started to feel strange.
He still remembered that after Chun Xia left, Wei Mu immediately asked him to take a bath.
After that, the mother disappeared for a long time until she came to deliver hot milk.
"I wonder if that weird girl will have a chance to go to class tomorrow."
His main task today was to find his girlfriend to go home and test his mother-in-law. The process was a little unexpected, but the result was within the planned range.
Kitahara Ryosuke glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. With the moonlight, he could clearly see the positions of the two hands on it.
"It's 12:05."
Kitahara Ryosuke wondered: "Isn't the reward for surviving one day 1 hour of free time? I remember it was much earlier than this yesterday."
at this time--
"Ding Dong"~
Tip: Since your mission has changed, you have the opportunity to kill the weird stepmother Mieko. If Mieko dies within 15 days, clear the mission early, otherwise please continue to work hard to survive.
Change the content of the task: There are often some strange movements late at night in the Kitahara family. There seems to be some deeper secret hidden in this house. You decide to try to unlock this secret starting tonight. At the same time, you have not forgotten your stepmother Mieko. She is the mistress of the Beihara family, and she needs to avoid her footsteps when moving.
…
"Mission change..."
"The aftermath of the showdown with the Tricky Mother is here..."
After saying this, Kitahara Ryosuke heard footsteps outside the door.
It's very heavy, not like shoes touching the ground, slowly and leisurely, as if it is patrolling its own territory.
There was no such sound last night.
Maybe he went to bed too early and didn't hear it.
The steps come closer, the steps go away, the steps disappear.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"~
Someone knocks on the door again!
Kitahara Ryosuke's heart suddenly tightened.
The changed task requires him to investigate the secrets hidden by the mother in Beiyuan's house at night.
More importantly, there is a method to kill the Trick Mother hidden inside.
After surviving 15 days in the hands of the treacherous mother Mieko, the system judged her to be A-level, and she was replaced by S-level after killing her!
But Teemo, before he decided whether to follow the new mission route, weirdness came to his door!
"Is this forcing me to participate in the investigation?"
There are windows on the second floor.
Sorry, after the heavy footsteps left, Kitahara Ryosuke tried it and couldn't open it.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"~
"Is anyone home?"
Is it a childish voice?
There are no big or small things like weird things, just like the weird boy, he never shows mercy when he kills people.
"Tuk Tuk Tuk"~
"Hello, is anyone at home? I'm not a bad person, I'm just a little hungry. Just give me a little something to eat."
The scarlet eyeballs in the palm of Kitahara Ryosuke's hand opened. His red eyes penetrated through the door and saw a little girl in a white dress holding a bear in the corridor wiping her eyes.
The Eye of True Sight can clearly see the nature of the weirdness. If it dares to open it, it proves that the little girl is not that strong.
But to be on the safe side, he still used analysis——
"Ding Dong"~
Tip: Use the skill [Analysis] to find G-level weirdness, evaluate it, and be harmless.
The weird levels range from G to S, with G being the weakest.
On the first day she entered the mission, Kitahara Ryosuke was able to punch the head of an F-level monster with one punch. It was only a G-level monster, so there was no harm in letting her in.
Sudden!
The little girl's expression became frightened. While banging on the door, she begged: "Please, open the door, it is coming soon. I don't want any more food. Please let me go in and hide for a while!"
The sound of footsteps like a heavy hammer sounded again.
Kitahara Ryosuke quickly got out of bed, opened the door to the room, and pulled the little girl in.
In fact, he was holding the person with one hand and making a fist with the other. If the weird little girl in the G-level dared to make the slightest move, he would punch her into pieces.
"Bang!"
The little girl in the white skirt took the initiative to close the two wooden doors above her, and then used her free hand to make a silencing gesture to Kitahara Ryosuke.
"Bang, bang, bang", the footsteps approached and reached the door of this bedroom.
It stopped, breathing heavily, as if examining Kitahara Ryosuke and the little girl hiding behind the door.
Then Kitahara Ryosuke was shocked to find that the enhanced True Seeing Eye in the palm of his hand had closed again without permission.
MMP!
"Do we dare to be more cowardly?"
This guy is a typical bully and fears the strong. He wants to rush out and beat up a living corpse while riding the train. When he gets home, he wants to be as honest as possible.
Well, this also gave Kitahara Ryosuke an important piece of information. The footsteps are most likely Mieko who needs to be avoided as mentioned in the mission content.
During the day, Mieko's mother is gentle and virtuous, but it is her true nature that haunts her at night.
5 minutes later.
The footsteps faded away again.
The little girl in white dress leaned against the door and let out a long breath.
She stood up and bowed to Kitahara Ryosuke and said, "Onii-chan, thank you for taking me in."
After saying this, he turned around and left.
Kitahara Ryosuke: It’s really a harmless weirdo...
Then, he pointed to the half-eaten fruit platter on the table behind him, "I don't have any serious food here, but I do have fruits. If you don't mind, I can give them all to you."
The girl was a little timid, as if she was not sure whether she should eat Kitahara Ryosuke's food.
It's a pity that her eyesight is 100% unable to see through the +3 acting skills.
With the encouragement of Kitahara Ni-chan, this small and thin body turned back.
She hugged the glass bowl of fruit and stuffed it into her mouth with her hands.
After eating the fruit, he refused to stop until he licked the bottom of the bowl clean.
