``` Entering the world of the Scripted Murder Game isn't scary. Playing the role of the murderer is still doable. Playing the role of the victim is fine. Playing the role of a girl is manageable. Even if you have to deal with dark, strange monsters, and accidentally get tainted by them, it's no big deal. Shuo looked at the script in his hand and felt that he could still play the part! … But after adding a bunch of teammates with mental issues, he felt that he couldn't go on acting. This script is a bit off too! Shuo, "Can we not have a murderer, a victim, a girl, or psychos, and just have a normal person?" … —————— 【Non-traditional Scripted Murder Mystery Game】 【Attention: The plot will gradually shift from normal to bizarre, focusing on tasks. Each Scripted Murder Game script is original, not fan-made. Non-original scripts will be indicated.】 【Ensemble cast, with undercovers, role-playing, disguises, no female lead.】 ```
Xu Shuo arrived in the village, the open square built around the river had already gathered a number of people, who looked to be travelers from out of town.
It was lunchtime, and villagers, clutching their rice bowls, had come outside to enjoy the show, followed by neatly dressed children, blinking their big eyes curiously at the outsiders. They didn't have the usual scruffiness of the countryside but instead looked clever and cute.
"Dai, you've come."
As Xu Shuo approached, a six-year-old girl with double buns clutching a rice bowl came up to him, her round cheeks so tender it seemed they would burst with a touch.
So Xu Shuo naturally pinched her cheeks and smiled, "Go back inside to eat, there's too much dust out here."
The little girl, with her cheek pinched, didn't react much but just tilted her head and looked at him for a while before she scampered back under the eaves of the brick house, standing there and peering out.
