MTL - One New Rule Per Month Globally-Chapter 238 This map is a dead end!
Chapter 238 This map is a dead end!
"Ding, the first round of clue collection has begun."
「Please, players, tell me a clue that you saw in the plot.」
「Starting from the last player on the right side of the table, rotate counterclockwise to start the explanation.」
And the last player on the right side of the table is the yellow-haired boy.
I saw that the yellow-haired boy was a little speechless at this time from the student of Heigou City, blushing and panting. Obviously, if it wasn't for the map that stipulates that players in this map cannot fight each other, it is estimated that the next second will be Going to rush up!
It took several deep breaths to suppress the anger in my heart, sat on the chair, and said every word with a gloomy expression.
"I don't have a clue."
"I hid in a wardrobe in a study during the entire plot. I could only see the corpse of an old man in the gap at the bottom of the wardrobe. I don't have any information other than that."
"Can't see anything."
"However, footsteps can be heard intermittently in the study. No matter who the murderer is, it can't be me anyway."
"Not necessarily."
The boy dressed as a student with glasses tightened his collar casually: "The plots we have seen are all broken. You just saw yourself hiding in the study closet."
"But why hide in there?"
"Could it be that after killing someone, he was about to escape, but when he realized it was too late, he hid in the closet?"
"fart!"
Hearing this, the yellow-haired boy finally stood up furiously and pointed at the student wearing glasses and shouted: "I have tolerated you for a long time, why are you pretending to me here?"
"Spitting blood is fun, isn't it?"
"I think you are the murderer. Otherwise, why do you keep focusing on me? Don't you just want to quickly eliminate a person and leave enough space for yourself?"
"alright."
at this time.
The middle-aged man in a suit sitting next to the yellow-haired boy, still leaning on the back of the chair, his complexion not very good-looking, said with his eyes closed.
"My plot seems to be a gardener who trims branches in a villa. In my plot, I only hear a quarrel in the study."
"The curtains blocked the view in the study, and the distance was a bit far away. I didn't see or hear what happened."
"But I saw a person walking into the study carrying a medieval candlestick, and then there was a quarrel in the study."
"That person is him."
The middle-aged man who had been closing his eyes suddenly opened his eyes and pointed his finger at the yellow-haired boy sitting beside him: "In the plot, your appearance will replace the character's appearance, this boy's yellow hair is very conspicuous, and he doesn't even You need to be serious about it.”
Before the yellow-haired boy could say anything.
Sitting next to the middle-aged man, a girl wearing a suspender skirt suddenly realized something and said, "No wonder!"
"My identity should be the daughter of the deceased. I took some cakes from the back kitchen for my father to eat. About half an hour later, I was about to go to my father's study to pick up the cakes, but I saw my father died in a pool of blood."
"There is a big wound on the head, and there is a blood-stained candlestick next to it."
"That is to say."
The girl's voice gradually weakened. Although the latter words were not clearly stated, the implication was already obvious, and the finger pointed at Huang Mao.
It's just that the sight seems to be casually scanning the several players present.
Paused slightly on Chen Yi for a little longer, and then looked away.
One time—
Everyone turned their attention to the last yellow hair on the right side of the table.
The witnesses and physical evidence are all in place.
Who is the murderer? Needless to say?
Chen Yi didn't raise his head, but continued to eat the steak in front of him seriously. He was the only one in the audience eating the steak seriously.
He didn't know why other people didn't eat it.
Anyway, being idle is idle, why not have a meal.
But when the girl started talking about how she gave cakes to the deceased in the study, Chen Yi, who lowered his head to cook, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled lightly and did not speak.
This girl should be the girl who met him in the study.
There are two very interesting points.
The girl's last words were—
"That is to say."
There should be another sentence after this sentence, which means that the yellow-haired boy is the murderer. Although he didn't say it directly, everyone understands the meaning behind this sentence.
Just, why not just say it?
He is more inclined to one possibility.
That is why the girl dare not say it.
Why dare not say it?
Because of the existence of the August rule.
That is to say, this girl is also suspecting that she may be the murderer in her heart, and she dare not say such things as identifying others as the murderer, otherwise she will violate the rules of August.
Although there are 3 fault tolerance opportunities in the August rules, it is not a special case. No one wants to consume this fault tolerance opportunity. This month has just begun.
Even if they know the existence of the **** map, no one wants to immigrate to hell.
Interesting second point.
Although he didn't look up, he still felt that the girl glanced at the players present after she finished speaking, which meant that the girl knew that what she said would be heard by those who cared.
She is looking for a framemate.
The person in the same frame as her in a plot, that is to say, when the girl entered the room to remove the dessert, she knew that there was someone in the room, or she felt that there was movement in the room.
While suspecting that she is the murderer, this girl is also wondering whether the murderer is someone else.
The real gameplay of this map.
Not to find the murderer.
But to judge whether he is the real murderer.
Chen Yi put the last piece of steak into his mouth, heaved a sigh of relief, and then turned his head to look at another girl wearing a court skirt beside him.
"If you don't want to eat it, give it to me."
"Huh? Ah, okay, you can eat."
"Thanks."
Chen Yi picked up the girl's steak, put it into his arms without any politeness, and continued to eat one after another. He was not hungry, but a little bored.
It's better to eat something if you are idle.
And then—
Other players have voted.
「Ding, three or more players have agreed to start voting.」
"Start the first round of voting in this round, please players vote to decide the murderer in your mind."
"Player 1."
"Player 1."
"Player 10."
As soon as the voting started, two players voted for the yellow-haired boy, that is, player No. 1.
But there was also a player who voted for player number 10, Chen Yi, and the voter was the girl who said she went into the study to pack desserts.
"I"
The yellow-haired boy was sitting on the back of the chair with a pale face at this time, his mind was constantly going through the whole plot. He really didn't expect that he was the murderer.
How can you argue with this?
This map is a dead end!
In his perspective, he didn't see the process of killing himself at all, so he naturally felt that he was a good person.
But soon thereafter, other players said that they saw him quarreling with the deceased with a candlestick, and saw a blood-stained candlestick on the pool of blood of the deceased lying on the ground.
How to wash?
I can't wash it.
He even **** wants to surrender himself, can he give some consolation prizes for surrendering?
Does this map have to be so difficult? Doesn’t it mean that the passes that can be sold in shopping malls are not very difficult?
Oh, the difficulty is really not very high.
It’s really not that difficult for a good player. There were only three or four people talking, and he was able to find out the murderer. But for a player like him, the difficulty is too high.
The yellow-haired boy leaned on the back of the chair with a face of despair, his eyes closed tightly and he didn't say a word, just patiently waiting for the end of the map.
No more acting, he admitted.
"how?"
The boy dressed as a student with glasses sitting opposite the yellow-haired boy elegantly cut a piece of beef and put it in his mouth. After chewing slowly for a while, he wiped off the oil stains around his mouth with a towel and said softly.
"Do you dare to say that I am not a murderer four times now?"
"Have you realized the difference between idealism and materialism?"
"Stupid dogs also come to pack garlic."
"I vote for player 1."
「Ding, 3 players voted for player 1, 1 player voted for player 10, and the remaining 6 players abstained.」
「Player 1 has the most votes and is out!」
「Player No. 1 is not the murderer. The game continues. You still have two chances to vote. Please use it with caution.」
"Um?"
The student wearing glasses froze for a moment, frowned and asked in doubt: "Isn't this yellow hair the murderer?"
Everyone present was obviously a little confused. After all, all the evidence just now pointed to Huang Mao, which should not be the case.
"No."
At this time, the old man who was separated from the woman in suspenders was player No. 5. He shook his head at player No. 3 with a serious face and said, "You have concealed part of the information. Since you entered the room and saw the deceased, why didn't you react at all?" ?”
"I clearly saw you pouring a plate of pastries into the trash can in the backyard. I asked where you got them from. You said that the master didn't like them and took them out of the study."
"It doesn't make sense."
"You didn't have any fear at the time, and you didn't reveal that the master didn't like this dessert."
"oh."
Player No. 3, who was wearing a suspender skirt, nodded without panic: "Because I saw a player hiding behind the curtain in the study."
"So I didn't say anything, because I was worried that I would alert the murderer, so that I would be killed together."
"Perhaps you are also wondering why I voted for player number 10 just now."
"The answer is very simple. When I entered the study, I saw someone hiding behind the curtains. Although the person was hiding very well, I still noticed that the person was wearing a pair of black rain boots."
"Just now I took a look under the table, only player number 10 was wearing rain boots."
"I believe the answer is already clear, isn't it? Since the yellow hair of player 1 is not the murderer, it can only be player 10."
All players' eyes shifted to Chen Yi again.
His eyes were full of suspicion.
This is almost a point-to-point questioning.
