Chapter 1: The Manor


Today is the first day I came to this manor. Everything is so strange, with high castles in European architectures, with the glimmering lights that are dim but luxury at the same time, and small creatures that they usually called "human".

So strange. I don't really understand.

An European guy with brown hazel hair, holding a strange lamp with a very long coat came to show me this whole place. He introduced me about the game I've joined, and my role in that job.

He said I'm a hunter.

Such ridiculous. Hunter,me? Isn't that how we, Chinese people called the governor dogs only know how to exploit labour force from people and steal all the properties for themselves?

I quietly give this job a scronful smile. He also said, everyday I can choose to participate in the game or not, but on "my day"-which is Thursday, I must attend to the game even when I'm tired or nearly fainted. I don't have any disagreement with that.

- Sir, what is the weapon you are going to use in the game?

Weapon?

Xie Bian makes a smile.

He show his black, mysterious umbrella with many different Asian incantation, touches it softly as that thing is as precious as gold.

- Welcome you to this Manor. You have agreed to join this game, and you are a hunter.

Hunter? Do I have to chase and kill anything?

- Say it out loud, what is my prey?

The detective feels a little bit awkward from the impatient attitude of the person in front of him, however he quickly calm himself down.

- Human. No, not really-actually, your prey are the 'survivors'.

Fan Wuju doesn't really care, anyway, murder, steal, are there any crime that he hadn't committed to.

Even when he didn't do those things, 'they' had slander those crime on his name.

- Nightingale... they... what's wrong with them?

- You are surprised too? It's not that complicate, they just haven't figured out the presence of each other.

- So they came here for....

Xie Bian has just came here for a short time but he already attracted many attention from everyone who is living in here. Being one of the only two Asian, with a long, beautiful silver hair that had an unique braided hairstyle, a good looking face shows the politeness and amiability just like the most famous British gentleman in this Manor- Jack the Ripper. Xie Bian has a deep voice that makes people feel comfortable while talking to him, humble attitude and caring from an Asian noble-however, he is also famous for his harshness in any match. However, after the match is finished, he will go to the survivors' campus to ask about the wounds he's made, and show people more about the Asian medication to the only doctor in this place.

Xie Bian is very tall, thin, with extremely beautiful clothes that impressed every single person. He always the central in people's eyes, received respect from all hunters and survivors.

But there is someone else.

Someone that makes people curious.

His clothes are exactly the same with Xie Bian, as handsome as Xie Bian, with a long braided hairstyle like Xie Bian, but in black. He is also very tall, and his is even more in shape than Xie Bian. People don't dare to look at him straightly since his whole body just like it wants to say "don't dare to approach me." He is a nightmare with a silver bell. If Xie Bian is well known for never be a friendly hunter, then this guy is a total homidical. His hits are so fast that the survivors don't even have time to take a breath. Each dash has the sharp in it, since then the pallets are not enough for the survivors to protect themselves from him anymore. Even when no one knows who he is, and where he came from, they could all be sure in one thing.

That guy is not Xie Bian.

Totally not!

However, people only see Xie Bian in the manor, no one else. Many survivors even complained to the boss about "him", about the existance of another personality inside Xie Bian that makes this game become unfair.

But there was no solutions, or anyone who could fix this problem. They start to aroused doubt about Xie Bian, think that he- has another personality inside him just like Jack and The Ripper, the nightmare murderer of England in the eighteenth centuries. Even Jack has to say, "Ripper is not out of control like this". People tried to ask Michiko-as the only two Asian in the manor, to talk with Xie Bian about "him". Geisha with the deep dark eyes pull her bloody fan over her face, show some sadness look from her eyes. She doesn't have any interest in talking with any man that is not her old husband.

Until one day, the one who opens Xie Bian room is not Xie Bian.

The person who has always been the nightmare of this whole manor.

Fan Wuju.
