Let's give space a touch of Chinese horror!

Chapter 67 Streamer's First Blood

Then, half an hour later—

Turbo Duck then saw the familiar "You are dead..." and "Game over..." screens again.

Turbocharged Duck: "..."

He stared blankly at the comments section filled with laughter, his face a picture of bewilderment and confusion: "Why is this happening?"

Aside from stubbornly refusing to go to the tenement building at the very beginning of the game, he didn't do anything else this time.

So when the familiar little ball suddenly appeared, and the mischievous little boy gently tugged at his clothes and asked, "Brother, can you play with me?", the turbocharged duck didn't even wait for the little boy to say, "Let's play together, brother!" before answering him firmly and decisively, "Okay!"

"What do you want to play?"

The little boy who was interrupted: "..."

The viewers in the live chat at the time were completely oblivious to the seriousness of the situation, laughing and joking: "Hahaha, the old duck really left the kid speechless..."

"I have to say, the NPCs in this game seem to be quite intelligent this time; they even respond differently to the player's reactions..."

Looking back now, Turbo Duck thinks that this might have been the moment he angered the little boy NPC.

But at that time, he was completely oblivious, and even had the leisure to comment on the live stream: "The little boy's ball looks pretty inflated, but why can't it bounce?", "This ball looks small, but it's quite heavy to hold", "I wonder how long this boring game will last"...

Whether the little boy heard his complaints or it was time for the game to play with the ball, the little boy quickly invited the Turbo Duck to his house.

TurboDuck was quite surprised at the time, and excitedly told the viewers in the chat, "Guys, I think I've finally found the right way to beat this level!"

The game's promotional video is just showing the little boy going home for dinner, isn't it?!

He's been invited home for dinner by the little boy, which means we've reached a crucial point in the plot!

"See? I skipped the level!"

Who said he was deliberately trying to create a stir or make the show more interesting! He clearly found a unique way to skip levels in the game!

The comments section was filled with people marveling at his incredible luck.

While chatting with the viewers in the live chat, the turbocharged duck followed the little boy to the tenement building.

Since he was "escorted" here last time, as a "prisoner" he had no way or right to check his surroundings; so this time, Turbo Duck deliberately slowed down and walked slowly, so that the viewers in the live stream could take a good look at the unique architectural style of the game "Reunion".

It was at this moment that Turbo Duck realized that there were actually dogs in the security room at the entrance of the tenement building, and four strong, large dogs at that.

However, the four big dogs seemed to be very familiar with the little boy. The big dog that had stood up and opened its mouth when it saw the Turbo Duck, a stranger, obediently lay back down after seeing the little boy next to him.

The turbocharged duck was amazed.

But when they arrived at the little boy's house, the turbocharged duck realized... the storyline he was experiencing seemed to be different from the one in the promotional video.

There was no male homeowner opening the door, nor was there a female homeowner at the table; the house was completely empty.

At least, the food shown in the promotional video wasn't on the table.

"Um, where are your mom and dad?" Turbo Duck asked, peeking into the house.

"Dad went to work, and Mom stayed home to take care of my little sister."

The little boy told the turbocharged duck to wait in the living room while he went into his room to put the ball away.

The turbocharged duck let out an "oh" and strolled around the house, checking things out:

The house was decorated in a very homey style, and there was a family photo of the four of them on the TV.

I don't know if it was because the camera equipment of that era had poor resolution or because the photos were not well preserved, but the faces in the photos were all blurry, and even the facial features were indistinguishable. The only way to tell who was who was was by their clothes and hairstyles.

After examining the photos, he wandered over to the torn-out calendar on the wall.

"So this thing is a calendar!"

This was the first time Turbo Duck had ever seen such an old-fashioned thing. He was curious and couldn't help but reach out and flip through it.

"This thing, you probably tear off a sheet every day..." Turbo Duck said, sharing his opinion with the viewers in the chat: "It's quite a ritual, I'd really like one... I wonder if the Red-Clad One side can make some merchandise—wait, what?"

His hand, which had been turning the contents over, paused. "What is this?"

On the calendar page he casually flipped to, there was a large circle drawn on the date in red pen. Turbo Duck leaned closer to look and saw a small, crooked line of writing on it—"Sister's Birthday."

"Oh!" Turbo Duck suddenly realized: So he was early!

He remembered that in the promotional video, the little boy was rushing home to celebrate his sister's birthday.

There are still... TurboDuck counted the calendar entries before his birthday and concluded, "Only 5 days left!"

We haven't reached that plot point from the promotional video yet!

No wonder none of the adults were home, and there wasn't a table full of food like in the promotional video...

Damn it, he came for nothing!

Since we haven't reached a plot point yet... Turbo Duck felt that he couldn't find any clues here, so he didn't want to waste any more time here.

However, since he was a guest, Turbo Duck felt he should say goodbye to the host before leaving.

It wouldn't be good if I were mistaken for a thief or something.

The turbocharged duck looked towards the room.

Speaking of which, didn't the little boy say he was just going into the inner room to put a ball? Why hasn't he come out yet?

He got up and walked towards the room.

"Knock knock..."

He knocked on the door. "Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, are you in there?"

The room was quiet, without a sound.

"Huh? Is she not here?" Or is she asleep inside?

The turbocharged duck started to wonder whether it should just leave or open the door and take a look.

In the end, encouraged by the comments, he made the decision he would later deeply regret.

He reached out and gently pushed the door open a crack.

Through the crack in the door, he saw the little boy kneeling on the bed with his back to him, quietly fiddling with something on the bed while holding a ball.

Because of the angle and the position of the bed, Turbo Duck couldn't see exactly what he was doing, but that didn't stop him from feeling that the atmosphere in the room was... eerily quiet.

What is that little boy doing?

The turbocharged duck's interest was piqued.

Just as he was about to open the door wider, wide enough to stick his head in as well, he suddenly heard someone ask in his ear:

"What are you looking at here?"

"Let me see—" Turbo Duck was about to answer instinctively when he caught a glimpse of a blindingly cold light raised high beside him.

Just as that cold light streaked across the air in a silver arc, the turbocharged duck suddenly remembered that the little boy seemed to have said something before—

His mother is at home now...
