[MTL, BL] After Retiring From Horror Game Boss

1

Although it is a working day, the flow of people in the art museum is not small. There is a sign at the door saying "'Midnight' New Works - Photography Exhibition".

The museum was built slightly tall, and the canopy was far away from the ground, thus creating a grand and open atmosphere, which temporarily diluted the boredom brought by the noisy flow of people to the young man. His beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, his expression absolutely absolute. Can't be called pleasant.

The young man is thin and tall, wearing a thin windbreaker, standing in front of a red-toned photo. Even if it is just his back, it attracts a lot of attention.

And right next to him, a couple was stopping in front of another photo, whispering to it.

"I have always liked Teacher Ziye's works..." It was the girl who was talking, she giggled, "He became famous two years ago. His debut work alone won various domestic awards, and his style is completely different from that of most photographers. It's different. No one knows what he looks like now."

The boy couldn't help but smile: "I didn't know you knew photography, anyway, I can't understand these things."

At this point, He accidentally caught a glimpse of the photo again, and the picture made him tremble subconsciously. A chill ran through his body, and he quickly looked away.

The photo is completely black, but it reveals a trace of vertical light, as if in a locked dark bedroom, the door slowly opened the gap with a "squeak", revealing a prying eye watching through the gap. Sleeping man in bed - photo from the monster's point of view.

I don't know what's wrong with the person who took the photo and why he made it so scary.

"No, don't you think it's mysterious? Death Photographer!" the girl said in a strange tone, raising her finger to trace the outline of the monster in the picture, "It is said that Teacher Ziye did not show up because he himself is a member of the monster... "

The perspective of all the works he shot is very tricky. Before this, no one has ever observed humans from the perspective of monsters, so the perspective looks very weird, distorted, and even a little bit curious, which makes people's hearts beat wildly. stop.

"Maybe there's something wrong with his brain." The boy muttered, as if he was dissatisfied with his girlfriend's admiration for another person. "Or it's just for fame and reputation. There are so many people here today, isn't it because he has organized a meet-and-greet?" Is this? This is hunger marketing..."

The young man on the side turned his head and glanced at the boy who spoke.

"..." Just this glance caused goosebumps all over the boy's body to suddenly explode, but he didn't know why he had this feeling of fear, as if... he was being stared at by something dangerous. My girlfriend noticed something strange.

She turned her head and saw that her boyfriend's entire face had turned pale at some point.

"What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing."

After his words fell, he felt his shoulder was patted lightly, but his hand was quickly moved away. This action was a bit disgusting, and the boy turned around. , and found that it was the young man who was standing next to him before, saying in a bad tone: "What are you doing?"

He didn't even notice it, his body was shaking unconsciously.

The young man's expression did not change, he just shortened the distance between the two and whispered something in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

After he finished speaking, he immediately stood up straight and looked at the boy's face leisurely.

"..."

In his sight, the boy's expression changed instantly.

He felt like he was falling into an ice cave, his lips were trembling, his pupils were dilated due to fear, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably. He stared at the other person as if he had turned into a monster, but the former gave him considerately at this time. He smiled.

"You, how do you know..."

After a while, he seemed to wake up suddenly, his whole body was shaken, he suddenly took the girl's hand, and hurriedly ran outside the art museum, as if there was someone behind him. The man-eating monster was chasing after him, and it was obvious that he did not dare to stay here for a moment.

The young man stared at his back, and after a while, he sneered.

"I've been looking for you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be here!"

A slightly panting voice sounded beside him, and the young man turned around and saw Xiao Zhang's figure.

He looked at the young man and found that there was no problem. Xiao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. Then he glanced at the couple running away from him with a confused expression. He suddenly became alert and said quickly: "What happened? Don't tell me. , you can't help but threaten the fans again..."

"No," he interrupted.

That's not a fan of his and he just said one thing.

"Really?"

He didn't bother to answer his question.

The other party looked at him with a slightly reproachful look and found that he didn't even move his eyebrows. He couldn't help but said helplessly: "Okay, let's get down to business. Teacher Ziye, the meeting will start in half an hour. You and I Come to the backstage to get ready?"

Although no one knows what Teacher Ziye looks like, it's better to wait backstage for safety reasons.

And the young man in front of him is none other than the photographer "Midnight" himself, who has been speculated by everyone.

Xiao Zhang became his agent half a year ago. Even in ordinary life, his identity was unknown and his whereabouts were erratic. He obviously valued privacy. It was not until signing the contract that Xiao Zhang saw his real name— —Yu Ziyu.

He is usually mainly responsible for some commercial matters, negotiations and other chores, allowing Yu Ziyu to shoot with peace of mind without thinking about other things. After spending two years together, his impression of this famous photographer is that he is withdrawn, surly and kind. Indifferent, even a bit venomous... in short, very, very difficult to deal with.

However, artists all have big or small flaws. Xiao Zhang has seen colleagues who commit suicide, drink alcohol, take drugs... and even worse, directly commit suicide in order to obtain inspiration, so he does not feel that Yu Ziyu's current state is It was too much, and as far as he knew, Yu Ziyu saw a psychiatrist regularly and had a very positive attitude.

"Who hung this photo?" However, Yu Ziyu pointed to the photo that the couple looked at before and said coldly, "This is not my work."

"...What?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhang He took a look at the photo and showed a puzzled expression: "Isn't it just this one..."

He put up every photo after checking it. It was impossible for such a mentally retarded mistake to be made. However, Yu Ziyu folded his arms and showed no signs of confusion on his face. Staring at him with an expression on his face, it was clear that he didn't think what he said was right, and he seemed to be asking for help.

"No." Yu Ziyu nodded, "Take another look."

...What changes?

Xiao Zhang had the courage to look at the photo again, but no matter how much he looked left or right, he couldn't find anything different. He suddenly felt like the straight guy who was asked by a girl about the difference in lipstick shades, so he could only shake his head honestly. "I don't know."

"I just realized that I took that photo alone." Yu Ziyu.

Xiao Zhang, who was ridiculed by him, said: "How can this be said? I pushed the door open for you. I was right next to you..."

At this point, his voice paused and he suddenly remembered something. He looked sharply at the photo.

It was okay not to look at it, but it was almost frightening to see it. Xiao Zhang was trembling all over and said with his tongue tied: "The gap, the gap..."

"The gap is expanding, something is coming out." Yu Ziyu said.

Xiao Zhang remembered that the eye was not in the original photo, it was just a gap, leaving the viewer with a sense of horror that could be imagined.

But now...

pointing at the photo, Yu Ziyu's voice was smooth: "Originally, there was only a gap in the photo, but now the door has been pushed open. Whose is the prying eye exposed? I don't have such a composition. Is someone playing a prank?"

A prank.

It must be a prank.

This word made Xiao Zhang finally come back from his fear and realize how ridiculous his idea just now was. In this materialistic world, how could something supernatural happen? So, he calmed down, and then said in panic: "I will contact the person in charge now and replace the photo."

"As for this photo..."

"Mine." Yu Ziyu stretched out his hand and took out a pen to draw. The shell covering the photo was broken, and the display panel was opened so easily.

Then, there was an unmistakable "stab" sound in his ears. Under Xiao Zhang's disbelieving gaze, he quickly tore off the photo. Then, he rolled up the photo and roughly stuffed it into himself. In the pocket of his windbreaker, a series of movements are flowing and pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Zhang: "..."

Xiao Zhang: "I thought the security check would prohibit the carrying of dangerous goods."

Yu Ziyu capped the pen, pinned it on his pocket again, and glanced at him: "This is my autograph session. "It's a privilege."

"..."

"Thank you for reminding me to bring a pen with me to sign, but unfortunately, it is now scrapped."

The rough behavior of scratching the outer shell of the display board has caused the pen tip to curl up. The tone was not regretful at all.

He turned the pen around - the pen was a gift from Xiao Zhang.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhang had a bad premonition in his heart. He stretched out his hand to grab Yu Ziyu's sleeve. Unexpectedly, the other party turned away from him. Xiao Zhang quickly shouted: "Wait?! Don't tell me Are you not going to attend the book signing? This is your first photo album, and everyone is waiting for you to show up..."

His raised voice attracted the attention of many people, but Xiao Zhang couldn't care less. too much.

Because so many people came just to see him!

If Teacher Ziye didn't show up, the scene would be unimaginable.

"It doesn't matter if you find someone else to take over or just say I'm sick." Yu Ziyu glanced at him and said, "You are the agent, you can figure it out yourself."

After that, Yu Ziyu turned around and left without any hesitation. , Xiao Zhang was dumbfounded at his willfulness behind him.

...

As soon as he left the art museum, Yu Ziyu quickly walked to the parking lot, opened the car door, and after sitting in the driver's seat, he closed the door with a cold face.

Then, he put his hand into the pocket of his windbreaker and took out the photo.

Compared with before, only one eye was exposed, and now the door crack is wider. If Xiao Zhang was here, he would definitely scream in fear, because a pale, bloodless, nearly two-meter-long arm The tip of the iceberg is exposed, as if it is trying to push open the door in the photo, trying to break free from the photo that imprisons it.

Yu Ziyu knew about this monster. In a dungeon, it was used as a surprise monster to deal with players, because no one expected that there was a monster hidden in the photo hanging on the wall. It would actually get closer as time went by. , and then rush in front of the players and kill them wantonly.

That's right, a copy.

About two years ago, there was an unknown horror game. It would randomly select people in real life and drag them into a mysterious world. There, only by constantly experiencing terrifying copies and clearing the seventh floor before death could one survive. A chance to return to the real world.

And now...

"Long time no see." Yu Ziyu said expressionlessly, "I know you are here to find me."

"..."

"My response is - get out."

The movements of his hands did not stop, and he tore them into pieces. The photo in his hand, the moment he took action, let out a piercing scream and struggled crazily in Yu Ziyu's hand, but no matter how he resisted, it was completely suppressed by the other party's movements.

In an instant, there seemed to be thousands of twisted souls screaming in the photo, bursting out with supernatural power and shattering all the windows of Yu Ziyu's car, but the former turned a deaf ear and just tore it into pieces.

At the end, he even took out a lighter and completely burned the photo into a pile of ashes.

After doing all this, Yu Ziyu leaned on the driver's seat and was slightly lost in thought.

He didn't question why monsters appeared in the real world. He just thought with some boredom about how many more monsters were about to appear and disturb his peaceful life.

Tsk.

The reason why I don't waste time discussing "why the monster appears" is just because of a very simple fact -

Yu Ziyu himself is the first to appear in the real world and is the final boss of this horror game.
