Chapter 192 Clues and Lies
If you are smarter, you can deceive me about this matter and ask me to show you the note. If I directly answer that I lost it on the way here, etc., then the whole thing will be revealed.
"My clue is, in the belly of the beast." Chen Xin then spoke, just saying her clue to let the matter continue.
"Then my clue is, the key." The clue Neil obtained only had two words.
"Then my clue is...he has no clue." Xiao Chu then said to Neil.
Sure enough... they already knew the information that the murderer had no clues.
"I am... the champion who survives to the end." Xiaopeng's clue seemed a bit meaningless at first.
"Then mine should be the most magical." Xiaoyu finally said this first.
"Be careful of the second ghost."
"Ah?" Chen Xingying was instantly surprised.
"What does this mean? Could it be that there are two murderers? This doesn't fit the setting." Then he said.
"Sure enough, Master is as surprised as us." Xiao Chu said this. It seemed that they had discussed this before.
"What about your clues? Boy." Neil stared at Chen Xingying and asked for his clues.
"My clue is..." As a murderer, Chen Xingying naturally did not get a clue. However, based on the clues they just said, Chen Xingying has analyzed one thing and can turn it into a clue and tell it as a clue.
own clues.
"Two become one." He bluntly stated the non-existent clues he had made up. But...it was reasonable.
"Two into one?" Xiaopeng asked in surprise, what kind of clue is this?
"Sure enough...is that so? Then what I just thought is right." Xiaoyu then said Xiaopeng.
"Huh?" Xiaopeng turned around and looked at his brother in confusion.
"Our previous six clues contained two location information." Xiaoyu explained.
"In the waterfall and in the belly of the beast." Jack replied on behalf of Xiaoyu.
"Yes, there is only one door, why are there two locations? There are only two possibilities. One is that one is a trap, and only the other is the real place where the key is hidden." Xiaoyu continued.
"Then, there is another possibility that both places are real. What is hidden there must be obtained from both places and combined together to become the real key, that is, my clues are combined into one.
Meaning." Chen Xingying finished the rest with a smile.
"Well, so the puzzle is still very simple. It's just that there is a player among us who has a different goal of victory than the other six. His purpose is to interfere with us."
What Xiaoyu is talking about is the identity of the murderer... Yes, the murderer cannot reveal his identity, so he can only choose to secretly interfere with the actions of the other six people.
The key is that, like the Werewolf game, once a lot of things have been determined, the next thing to do is to choose the most questionable person.
"So, who among the seven of us is the most suspected murderer?" Jack asked.
Sure enough, we have reached this point.
"Now it seems that... no one has revealed any clues." Xiaoyu said while thinking.
"One of you must be lying." Neil said decisively, obviously excluding himself first.
"There should be only six real clues, and one of the seven is made up." Chen Xingying catered to them and said.
"Don't you even think about it? What that boy said to a girl is the most worthless thing." Neil pointed at Xiaopeng and Xiaochu.
"Me?" Xiao Chu pointed at himself and said... Xiao Peng also looked at him in confusion.
Xiao Chu's clue is to tell others that the murderer has no clue.
And Xiaopeng said: The one who survives to the end is the champion... which seems to be the most meaningless nonsense.
"Xiao Chu's clues are probably not fabricated." Chen Xin suddenly spoke.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at her.
"Although this sentence seems to have no real content, I think it is impossible for a murderer to make up such clues." Chen Xin continued.
"Why did you say that?" Neil looked at her with interest.
"Because you think, if you are a murderer and know that others have clues that you don't have, you will definitely find a way to make up a clue that sounds real. Or someone who is not good at lying will make up a clue instead of directly saying this
Information that is not good for you."
Smart Chen Xin... After hearing this, Chen Xingying secretly praised her. Then she also prepared her own excuse to exonerate Xiaopeng. At this moment, she must help her friend speak like a non-murderous player. Although it may put herself at a disadvantage.
situation, but this is also the optimal solution under trade-offs.
"And Xiaopeng's clue is indeed a bit nonsense when viewed alone. But when combined with Xiaoyu's clue, it is very useful."
Chen Xingying said these prearranged words.
"What did you say?" Neil seemed to be reminded and fell into thinking.
"I remember Mr. S said that the first person to solve the puzzle will be qualified to open the trophy door, right?" Chen Xingying continued.
"Well, except for the murderer." Jack nodded.
"But most of our clues now ask us to find the key that is divided into two parts. So after we work together to find the key, and discover the murderer and eliminate him, who among the remaining people will win the championship? Isn't this right?
Is it an open mystery?"
"Indeed..." Everyone nodded at this.
"So I think this is a reminder to us that there is another puzzle hidden. And then new clues need to be discovered on the way to find the key."
"Then why are you careful about the second ghost?" Xiaoyu asked.
"I'm afraid it means that the first person to solve all the puzzles will change his identity."
Of course, this is just Chen Xingying's conjecture. Given his special position, if this second ghost is born, will he be his comrade-in-arms? No... I have already come to the conclusion that there will be no teammates in this game.
"Then let's not wait any longer. Let's just go and look for the key. First of all..." Xiaopeng thought about it as he spoke.
"Waterfall..." Xiao Chu sighed and said.
"Yes! But where is the waterfall in the ice and snow here?" Xiaopeng asked doubtfully.
"Yes... it's clearly marked on the map." Xiaoyu pointed to the map spread out on the table. By the way, this map was placed on the table from the beginning.
"Hmm...?" Chen Xingying looked at the map and suddenly noticed something was wrong. It seemed that there was something different between this map and her own map.
"What's wrong, brother Xingying?" Chen Xin noticed his abnormality and came over to ask.
"Ah, it's nothing." Chen Xingying answered directly after regaining consciousness.
