There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

``` 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.】 ```

Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

I'm in Otto, a red ball at the start

I'm Ye Fu. Coincidentally, there's a monster called Ye Fu in Ultraman's world. Perhaps it's a request from some author. I transmigrated. When I transmigrated and took a closer look, I couldn't help but shout,"Dog author, where's my system?" Don't ask, it's different if you ask. There was still a cheat, but it was not the system. There was only a magically modified red ball. Grizza? That's me…Grimud? That's me…Ampera? That was still me…Sometimes, I would turn into Ultraman and play the role of a hero of justice…But more often than not, it was just like my name…I was an unknown entity. There was no distinction between good and evil, and I acted according to my own will. I wander the universe, leaving my footprints and legends to them...(This story is purely fictional, if there is any similarity, find the author) Group ID:816684781

From ancient times to the wilderness

"Since ancient times, who taught him?" The Purple Cloud Palace meeting hosted by Emperor God Tai Heng and attended by all the gods officially passed the construction plan of the 36-day defense circle. Emperor God Tai Heng said that the continuous growth of Ominous Beasts of Chaos had seriously threatened the harmony and stability of the Primordial Heaven and Earth and the safety of the lives and property of the citizens of the Primordial World. The thirty-six heaven defense circle would become the membrane embryo of heaven and earth and the sacred battlefield. All living beings of the Supreme Dao would have to go there and resist the Chaos outside the Untainted Land. The version 10.0 of the innate spiritual qi jointly developed by Supreme Divine Emperor NvWa, Supreme Divine Creation Wood, Supreme Divine Doumu, and Supreme Divine Taizhen will be upgraded in the near future. All citizens, please be prepared when you transform and cultivate. The karma network developed by Hierarch Rahu, Hierarch Jieyin, and Quasi-Spirit would be online soon.
