Chapter 445: 444. None of you will survive_1 Chapter 445: 444. None of you will survive_1 Wiped out!!?

Upon waking up and starting the stream to see what had developed, Qin Tiantian was completely stunned.

Before sleep everything was fine, so how come everyone is gone after one sleep?

She watched the replay of the stream that had ended, hurriedly dragging the progress bar to view the final segment.

“How can these people be so useless, all taken out in one swoop.”

Qin Tiantian saw that both Weibo and Dongle, as well as the trending discussions about the ending of “Glass Flower”, were ablaze—of course, and the same was true for foreign websites, but since she couldn’t understand English, she naturally didn’t pay attention.

On Weibo, there was a greater focus on emotions.

“I wake up and the show’s over, I can’t accept it!”

“This feeling is like having a girlfriend for three days, then she suddenly breaks up with you and deletes you from her friends, leaving you to listen to our love only from past CDs.”

“I thought Lu Ban would be merciful and at least let us see the ending, I didn’t expect him to hide it so deeply!”

“Turns out, only French women can save us all, history does not lie.”

“Where did it all go wrong, whose fault is this whole mess?”

“Is there a master who can analyze the playback? I feel like I can deduce a lot, yet it feels like I know nothing.”

“Lu Ban is too evil, by doing this he’s made people itch to play it for themselves!”

The live room’s positive ratings, likes, recommendations, etc., soared to fifteen million within half a day after the end of the stream. Some lamented the rapid team wipe that caught everyone unprepared, some were curious about the actual ending and who the murderer was, while many others wanted to visit the town themselves to experience the complex script.

And on Dongle, there was slightly more focus on hardcore analysis and inside scoops.

For instance, a certified film industry insider commented:

“Rather than content, it’s Lu Ban’s scheduling abilities and his training of actor NPCs that’s truly worth learning from, as in this instance. Different from his previous movies, this time Lu Ban recruited actors for the masses and in less than half a year, he trained these actors into NPCs of such professional caliber. Although these NPCs might not be able to play leads or significant roles, the quality of extras was very high. When watching the stream, I even thought for a moment that I was watching a documentary from Another World.”

Then there was an art design professional who reviewed the costume and set design of “Glass Flower”:

“Even in movies now, it’s rare to see costume and set design at such a professional level. From the books on bookshelves, newspapers on the streets, posters on the walls of houses, to the clothes and speech of pedestrians, Lu Ban presented us with a glittering, class-divided world of Abandoned Capital, as if it truly exists. Compared to many current works that are a mess even with existing references, having someone like Lu Ban surely restores a lot of confidence for those of us in this profession.”

Then, a certified novelist analyzed the character setup of “Glass Flower”:

“…So, we can assume that some players certainly failed to complete the tasks of their given identities, failing to obtain the clues they should have. In general room escapes or script murder mysteries, single threads just aim to scare players, introducing a different character to proceed doesn’t affect much, while in Lu Ban’s script, players must truly immerse themselves in it, play the role to obtain corresponding clues which is quite a breakthrough in terms of experience.”

Three seconds after reading these, Qin Tiantian had already forgotten, having heard that even goldfish have a seven-second memory, she truly marveled at goldfish.

She didn’t understand anything about acting, props, or character setting.

Qin Tiantian was only concerned with one thing, and that was who the murderer was!

Soon, she saw the live streamers she usually follow were also bubbling with discussions about this matter in a few groups.

Someone forwarded a Dongle response link, which Qin Tiantian clicked on, and it read, “Most comprehensive analysis of the ending of ‘Glass Flower’, with attached reasoning process.”

It looked highly professional!

She clicked in and read carefully.

The respondent had paired screenshots of the live broadcast with a thorough analysis of the entire process.

In the end, they deduced that the murderer should be that one gang godfather.

“Sounds so reasonable!”

Qin Tiantian felt it made perfect sense.

But when she opened her Moments, Qin Tiantian saw another forwarded message, “Exclusive reveal of the ‘Glass Flower’ resolution, everything you don’t understand is here!”

After clicking into it, the author of the article vividly analyzed that the perpetrator should be Doctor Howes, the one who was initially presumed dead. He had faked his own death with an exaggerated method to evade the investigation and killed the investigators for his own purposes.

“That makes so much sense!!”

Qin Tiantian thought this analysis was very logical.

During dinner, a friend sent her another link. It was titled, “Every other answer is wrong! The most accurate analysis of ‘Glass Flower’!”

The article analyzed each player in detail and ultimately posited that the murderer was among the players, with the high school student detective being the most likely suspect. He harbored everyone in his home, leading to their collective demise.

“That sounds incredibly reasonable!!!”

Qin Tiantian felt he was absolutely right.

“So the truth is, Doctor Howes faked his death and then conspired with the high school student detective and the Godfather to kill everyone!”

She said to Lu Ban.

“Wow, you’re really amazing.”

Lu Ban made a flat, emotionless sound.

“Just average.”

Qin Tiantian touched her nose.

“I wasn’t complimenting you.”

Lu Ban felt the need to clarify.

“You weren’t complimenting me???”

Qin Tiantian felt deceived.

“So what is the answer, then?”

She asked again.

“Can’t tell.”

Lu Ban shook his head.

“Are you worried I might accidentally blurt it out during a live stream? How could I, I’m the most tight-lipped person in the world. I haven’t told anyone about Baitu’s recent relationship!”

Qin Tiantian retorted.

“You see, this is exactly why I won’t tell you.”

Lu Ban spread his hands.

The live streaming of “Glass Flower” undeniably piqued everyone’s curiosity.

He actually didn’t interfere with the players’ choices; it was all directed by the players themselves.

Lu Ban always adhered to one principle: give life to the characters, and they will start acting on their own.

Provide every player with a detailed enough setting to fully immerse themselves, then toss them onto the stage of Abandoned Capital. They would start moving on their own, every step taken out of their own will, with their own thoughts.

A story depicted in such a way is more real than any fabrication.

From this perspective, the script of “Glass Flower” is infinite; even after playing it multiple times, one could still find enjoyment in it.

This is the true story of “Another World”!
