Chapter 1822: Chapter 1797: Curtain Call

So is the script comprised of five acts in total?

Even though the timeline is disrupted, overall it still revolves fairly around the theme.

Walking unhurriedly through the desolate night, at a certain moment, Fu Qian reached out his hand, a snowflake falling into his palm.

At the same time, the task completion prompt also appeared in his ear.

The snowflake didn’t even have time to melt, and this particularly special task was thus completed.

As he silently reviewed, Fu Qian already appeared in the familiar warehouse.

The task wrap-up was so straightforward and neat, which he couldn’t help but appreciate more.

Being one of the participants, maintaining the mentality of loving one’s job, a series of events flashed through Fu Qian’s mind like a kaleidoscope, quickly organizing into a line.

To be able to end in this way, now the last few questions can also be explained.

For example, why did Joshua appear at the school?

It was indeed after the party that the two assistants brought him there.

A specific and notably burly corpse, not so easy to transport.

Mr. Wolf’s car was broken, refusing to help them transport.

With Butters’ style, it wasn’t reliable either.

Even the two assistants might not want to rely on him.

And whether to throw him by the roadside or contact his family, obviously neither was viable.

In short, Gao Bi and an unsuspecting passerby became formidable friends.

Not only did they not abandon him but amidst the deadlock, they finally realized, so they carried the person nearby to the school.

Because the weekend was imminent, it was instead quite a secluded place.

Then they found a place for Joshua, setting him in a sitting-sleeping position, quietly waiting for ”resurrection.”

Considering avoiding too much attention, they probably tried helping to change his clothes and took turns watching over him.

Unfortunately, luck wasn’t on their side. When the on-duty passerby stepped away briefly, a boyfriend about to be abandoned from another school came looking for Salma.

Wen seemed quite aware of his own predicament, so upon seeing his rival, his killing intent surged, and he directly swung something at him.

Why would a high school student have such vicious means?

Simple, withdrawal reaction.

Wen’s temper was one thing, but earlier, Eva said that based on her understanding, no matter how big their arguments were, it would never escalate to such a fierce conflict among the couple.

Fu Qian believed this to be true, but let’s not forget the scene at Bloodletting High School, where the theme should be post-festival.

All abnormalities, misalignments, loss of control were triggered by the sudden disappearance of extraordinary elements related to All Fools’ Day.

Though Wen seemed quite ordinary, let’s not forget he had a nearly confirmed identity—captured by the Saliva Enchanting Demon.

Perhaps it sounded pathetic, but it probably made him quite different from ordinary people.

Even during the old mansion exploration, his uncanny ability to cut losses in time and escape unharmed.

The allure from the Jellyfish Vampire was intoxicating, yet ultimately, the succubus’ power was stronger, aiding him in throwing his stuff to Butters and fleeing.

From this perspective, Salma kind of saved his life.

In short, when the night of All Fools’ Day passed, Eva became extreme and manic due to unresponsive notes, and Salma lost her allure over captives.

In such a scenario, how could the yearning and love in Wen’s heart transform? The scorching love losing extraordinary support might slip to another extreme, which wasn’t impossible.

Appearing at school, his state was already quite off, hence the later rampage and fall.

Similarly explains why the timeline of Joshua’s death didn’t match.

Simple, his body’s special vital energy also vanished with All Fools’ Day.

Originally due to extraordinary power, his body was unlike any other.

Whether he could truly resurrect is unsure, yet post-death appeared quite lifelike.

This mystical aspect vanished too, thwarting his ”resurrection” plan.

In conclusion, though niche, it was indeed quite a festive holiday.

...

[Task Evaluation: Rational Curtain Call]

[Fooling is a dangerous game.

Even though the process is full of joy, even the victim might turn around and help you, but not everyone can bear the disparity at curtain call.

The victim cannot, and neither can the perpetrator.

Incomplete, only relying on festival-concept existent extraordinary powers would become noisy during winter.

For ordinary people, they are so dangerously charming and temptingly engrossing.

This itch of humanity reaches its peak on All Fools’ Day’s midnight.

Then within a second after, it returns to complete silence.

This disparity causing inner void is perhaps the true meaning of this holiday.

As a special spectator, in cold eyes you assess all of this, probing all of this, ultimately guiding them to the most rational completion of a curtain call.

Besides more festival tales, no extraordinary elements remain.

Jealousy, impulsivity, love, and sex were ample to explain all of it.

Also, there is a legend of a scavenger.

It’s said when reckless and committed a massive mistake in youth, as long as a name is recited, he would come to aid you, letting derailed life return to reality.

Sadly, no one remembers it.

Perhaps he will only reappear on some snowy All Fools’ Day night]

[Kills: None]

[Reward: SAN Points +20]

[Special Reward: Blood and Wine and Blood]

[Current SAN Points 126, Current Inspiration 99]

[Would you like to play the event review?]

This evaluation... why does it feel like it avoids the main points again?

While pondering, the task review fittingly appeared, making Fu Qian frown.

Content was mostly fine, quite fitting my deductions along the way.

But isn’t it overlooking some core elements—

Why would the task appear as this script, even disrupting the timeline?

Why a task numbered 3 but was restricted in ability and items?

Fu Qian always anticipated some insight from the task summary.

After a slew of praise, the content truly lacked substance, the most peculiar part didn’t mention a word.

Also, the last line, ”Perhaps he will only reappear on some snowy All Fools’ Day night”?

Reporting false intelligence, ignoring objective challenges, even the summary report is stingy, still expecting another festive appearance?

Aren’t you afraid of the presumption of unfair treatment, next time bringing a manic curtain call?

Theoretically, if not mind sacrificing a few SAN Points and multiple tries, forming this line from many possibilities understandingly isn’t impossible.
