Takahashi Fumihiko suddenly ignored Wen Xishuâs warning and stood up just like that.
His expression shifted from being honest and serious to looking entertained. That look was somewhat eerie, and the smile at the corner of his mouth made Wen Xishu feel a bit unfamiliar.
It was almost...like he had become a different person.
The Takahashi Fumihiko inside the door kept approaching. The Takahashi Fumihiko outside the door kept knocking.
[It is fake, it is fake, it is fake, it is fake...]
The Takahashi Fumihiko outside the door started repeatedly writing four characters.
It is fake.
He seemed extremely worried about Wen Xishu inside the room, pressing against the door and shouting:
"It is fake!"
At this moment, the Takahashi Fumihiko inside the door was only a few steps away from Wen Xishu. His grin was incredibly exaggerated:
"What happened outside?"
He continued to move closer towards Wen Xishu, who could only feel a massive chill invading him.
That unique sense of oppression exclusive to "them" came.
They had been let in by himself.
At this very moment, the answer practically told Wen Xishu directly...
Neither the Takahashi Fumihiko inside the door nor the Takahashi Fumihiko outside the door was real.
"Takahashi Fumihikoâs ability... could it be creating visitors? This ability is too perverse, isnât it?"
"So next, doesnât that mean I canât trust any visitors?"
"Furthermore, it created a âTakahashi Fumihikoâ to visit... just to make me suspicious, then deliberately made creepy expressions and abnormal actions. To make me logically deduce... the Takahashi Fumihiko inside the house is fake."
"Trying to thereby... prematurely force an end to the latent state. This is just like Takahashi Mariko attempting to take off her underwear."
Wen Xishuâs brain was still very quick.
He immediately made a decision and walked straight toward the Takahashi Fumihiko inside the door.
When the two faced each other, Wen Xishu kicked Takahashi Fumihiko directly in the abdomen.
One could say that Wen Xishuâs legs were his strongest part. This kick sent Takahashi Fumihiko straight back to his previous position.
Then Wen Xishu took a swift step forward, getting close to Takahashi Fumihiko, and slapped him three times.
"Did I fucking allow you to move without permission? Do you not understand human language? And you still claim to be Rokkashoâs top scholar?"
Wen Xishu grabbed Takahashi Fumihiko by the neck.
Takahashi Fumihikoâs eyes turned red with anger, trying to make an even more bizarre creepy smile to provoke Wen Xishu.
But Wen Xishu didnât take the bait. If you want to act inhuman, Iâll just insist youâre human.
"Smile?"
Slap, a smack that sent Takahashi Fumihikoâs glasses flying.
"Still smiling?"
Another slap, making Takahashi Fumihikoâs eyeballs bloodshot.
"Smile, keep smiling! Smile louder."
After a few more slaps, Takahashi Fumihikoâs face quickly swelled up.
Wen Xishu decided to start swinging his fists directly.
After a round of beatings, Takahashi Fumihiko finally stopped making creepy smiles.
"You...why donât you ask why Iâm laughing?" Takahashi Fumihiko was still astonished inside.
Does this man not find his laughter abnormal?
Wen Xishu said:
"None of my damn business. Your laugh is too ugly, Iâll send you to see God."
Wen Xishu pulled out a gun:
"Laugh again, and Iâll shoot immediately."
Takahashi Fumihiko now behaved honestly.
But he was still using trickery.
Because outside, Takahashi Fumihiko was still continuously knocking on the door.
At the same time, an extremely bizarre "scribbling" sound could be heard.
That was Takahashi Fumihiko outside, writing furiously, his speed nearly reaching a diabolic level, leaving afterimages of his waving hand.
Densely packed, all slanted and crooked, the door was covered with one phraseâ
"It is fake!"
At the same time, for some reason, the Takahashi Fumihiko outside seemed unable to continue his act. The whites of his eyes vanished, and his entire eyes turned a continually darkening shade, ultimately leaving nothing but void-like black holes.
Just like the previous visitor, he pressed his eyes firmly against the peephole and said viciously:
"It is fake!"
Takahashi Fumihiko inside didnât dare to ask: "Who is fake?"
He was really scared by Wen Xishuâs relentless beating.
Wen Xishu said:
"There is a monster outside impersonating you, you are the real Takahashi Fumihiko, or I wouldnât have let you in. If in doubt, donât use them; if you use them, donât doubt."
"Donât worry, no matter how convincingly the fake Takahashi Fumihiko outside acts, I wonât believe it."
"But from now on, if you move again, Iâll kill you. Even though I know you are human, Iâll still kill you."
Wen Xishu gave Takahashi Fumihiko the same kind of slightly perverse, eerie smile:
"Understood?"
Takahashi Fumihiko hugged his knees, squatting on the chair, dared not speak, nodding then burying his head in his knees.
Wen Xishu realized.
The "them" brought into the house would use all sorts of methods to make the owner realize "they" arenât human.
This would force an early end to the latent period.
For now, the solution appears simpleâjust refuse to acknowledge them. But the problem is...
This game isnât that subjective, just because you refuse to acknowledgeâit doesnât mean the monstersâ latent period will never end.
For crisis situations, disbelief only lasts for eight hours.
It only works to prevent the monster from prematurely ending the latent period, but the latent period of the monster has a natural ending state. When time runs out...
The monster will end the latent period naturally, and at that time, you will die if you should die.
The knocking and shouting outside the door ceased.
Visitors cannot stay indefinitely if not invited in.
"There are still a few hours left... the latent period of âthemâ will naturally end. If Iâm lucky and have recruited real people inside... then I can kill the previously recruited Takahashi Mariko and Takahashi Fumihiko."
