Chapter 39: Alice's Hell (10) – Good Friends
Huai looked at Yu Xing's face and had an illusion, as if what this gentle-smiling man had just said was not "one death is enough", but "dinner is delicious".
So who to eat...... No, who to die, have they all already thought about it?
Huai pulled back the thoughts that had been deviated in his heart, and his fingers unconsciously grinded on the Mithril pendant on his chest.
Yuki's way of thinking doesn't look like a good person.
Gamblers are not worried about the fortunate depravity line?
Just when Huai's mind was turning, Yu Xing kept that harmless face and added: "Of course, dead people are the worst plan after all, the gambler seniors must already know where the new area is, as long as I follow the seniors, it will definitely be fine!" ”
Huai: Is that the case for "......"?
Zeng Lai: "What the ...... thing is!?
The "gambler senior" who jumped out of the country had just recovered from the blow of Yu Xing's mask at this time, and felt the impact of the back pot.
Good guy, isn't this telling Huai, this idea is all his idea?
Although he did find some things in his previous explorations, he didn't believe that Yu Yu's current IQ would not have discovered these things at the same time.
You taste, you taste.
After thinking for two seconds, Zeng Laipin came out.
Fortunately, he didn't pretend much in front of him, but it was different in front of Huai. Huai's biggest feature is that he likes to record deduction videos, although he is a lone traveler, but he has many supporters.
Because Huai's video has given many people reference cases and learned a lot, even their researchers have used Huai's video for analysis.
So...... Fortunately, I don't plan to expose my deduction habits in front of the audience that will exist in the future!
Zeng Lai gave a thumbs up for his wit.
Fortunately, someone like Lucky has a backer, and there is a high probability that he will not die in the deduction of the struggle level, and maybe there will be an intersection in the future, since this is the case, he will give Luckily a favor by the way.
"Yes, it's a bit of a discovery, so let's toss it first." He casually picked up Yu Xing's words, trying to fool the few seconds he had been stunned just now.
Huai gave him a deep look.
Zeng Lai's face did not change: "Seriously...... No one really thinks that there is no danger in occupying a room. ”
Huai nodded and sighed.
In this deduction, the boss is in a dominant position, in other words, Alice is the owner of the castle, and she doesn't even need an excuse to make trouble for the deducers.
But the deducer can't do anything about her.
And this BOSS not only has a high status, but also a low IQ, just using a small trick, it made several deducers ignore the key point at the beginning and fall into a blind spot -
They only saw time and competition, but Lovely Liz did not guarantee that there were monsters roaming the castle...... There's no waiting for everyone in the room.
Originally, the ghost thing that everyone avoided was given the opportunity to kill people at will because of the new rules that appeared temporarily.
For example, Yu Xing's resentful corpse researcher.
This thing walks loudly, and it's hard to hide, but what if it's standing behind the door of a room that has a low probability of being opened?
The reducer hurriedly pushed the door open, only to see a pipe with exaggerated jagged teeth slashing towards his head.
The picture is beautiful, so don't think about it anymore.
The matter of occupying a room is easy to say, but it is actually difficult.
Alice, who doesn't know the breed, has no kindness to them at all, and the dog thing is very bad.
Probably to confirm their words, just then, a series of frightened exclamations came from upstairs.
It sounded like a man's voice, and although it was impossible to distinguish between the specific floor and the specific person, judging from the screaming waves, this person was screaming while running.
The scream lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared, not the kind that was cut off, but the kind that silently shut up after reacting and screaming the harder it became easier to escape.
“……”
It seems that the upstairs has started to get lively.
The three people at the table were silent for a moment, and Huai opened his mouth to confirm: "You have found out, and I have also with Huangbai, so, is there an alliance?" ”
"Knot." Zeng Lai clapped.
Yu Xing eats.
The alliance was finalized, Huai is the alienation line, the absurdity is the right path line (according to what she said to Huai), the gambler is the right path line, Yu Xing is the alienation line, in general, this alliance is more reassuring.
In other words, there is no depravity line in the team, and it is all reassuring.
Because this involves the question of how to clear the customs, people who fall into the line are unscrupulous, and often harm others, as long as they clear the customs, or achieve a certain goal, morality or something will be put aside.
As for the righteous path and alienation, although the two deduction habits are different, they have one thing in common - they both feel that the threat brought by the absurd deduction game is not enough for them to break morality and clear the level by killing others.
After the deduction of the differentiation level, the mortality rate is generally about 50%, and when you meet the big guy who leads the team, this data can still decline, and Zeng Lai has not seen all the members survive.
Therefore, for people with sufficient experience and strength above the average line, one deduction does not mean nine deaths and one life, but seven deaths and three lives......
Although the probability increase is not large, there is still a little bit of confidence.
It's really a last resort, when death is close to the door...... We'll talk about that then.
Anyway, I don't usually take the lives of innocent teammates who are randomly matched to Huo Huo, it's one thing to watch from the sidelines, and it's another thing to take the initiative to harm them, unless you encounter someone who has a grudge against you, or a degenerate line that is obviously hostile.
Well, the degenerate line doesn't do anything in daily life, and of course it won't be looked at by the deducers of the other two lines.
The old butler witnessed the whole process of the three tourists, who seemed to be speaking ill of Alice, and formed some strange relationship.
But he didn't say anything, and he didn't tell Alice the need, his duty was only to be a good logistics housekeeper, and the rest was not his responsibility.
It's the rule.
Zeng Lai and Huai understood this characteristic of the system, so they did not go back to the room, but discussed these things directly at the dinner table.
So, the old butler, who was used as a background board, began to listen to the three of them exchange clues again.
"What was the box you took when you went back?" Huai finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "Clues, or props?" How was it discovered? ”
"Maybe it's a prop, I think." Because he didn't open the small wooden box, Zeng Lai was not very sure, but it could be seen from the system prompt that he was looking for lighting tools and keys, and the cumbersomeness of opening the box was close to that of props.
If a prop clue is so complicated, then they don't play with it, just poke each other a few times and go to Huangquan together.
He gave his answer, and glanced at Yu Xing, who was not going to speak: "Actually, it was fortunate to turn it over, in the cabinet in the corridor on the fifth floor, the fifth floor is very evil, you look at the hall, magnificent, do you know what the fifth floor is like?" The ashes are piled up so high~ how high, and there are cobwebs, which is called a break. ”
"Broken?"
Huai didn't go to the fifth floor to see, only saw the stairs in the hall leading to the end of the fifth floor, the iron door that needed a key, his heart was really broken.
Just that one door, so rusty that I can't even recognize the original material, if the whole floor is in this style, it must have its meaning.
In the absurd world, every anomaly may symbolize vitality and clues.
Having said that, there was nothing to hide, Zeng Lai roughly told them all about their findings, including the abyss blood array on the ceiling that had not been activated.
"That's right. Then you've seen three kinds of ghosts. Huai looked at Yu Xing, whose appetite was too good, and inexplicably felt that his appetite was aroused little by little, he took advantage of the fact that the food was hot, and ate a few more bites to fill his stomach, and then said, "I also saw one when I was in the bathroom with Huangbai." ”
Absurd wanted to occupy the room, so Huai let her go.
The first few rooms are still very easy to enter, at least there are ten bedrooms, right?
As for the places that may be dangerous, Huai believes that Arashiro has his own judgment and will not take risks easily.
Because this woman is very smart, giggling, but actually very careful.
Huai said: "The men's bathroom is similar to what you said, I turned around for a while and left, and went to the women's bathroom." ”
Yu Xing raised his eyelids to look at him.
Zeng Lai also stared at him silently, as if he was making some kind of accusation.
“…… No, there was no one in the bathroom at that time! "Huai's normally flat voice finally showed the strongest fluctuation so far," ...... And the white went in first, I just followed to check the clues, and I won't do perverted things, take your eyes away! ”
Yu Xing obediently withdrew his gaze.
Zeng Lai sighed twice: "And then, what did you see in the women's bathroom?" ”
Huai coughed lightly: "A mirror." ”
"It was found by White, she said that she heard a sound in the mirror, so she followed the sound and looked at it, and I went too, and then I saw a person in the mirror."
Yu Xing raised his eyebrows: "Who?" ”
Huai said: "Myself." ”
Zeng Lai: "......? ”
Am I deaf......
"Do you see that you are very awesome, isn't that a mirror?"
Huai knew that he didn't speak clearly enough, and just wanted to make a supplement to the irascible old brother in the Northeast, Yu Xing spoke first.
He tried to understand: "You and the two people look in the mirror, and you are the only one in the mirror?" ”
"Yes." Huai said, "Moreover, I greeted me in the mirror, I didn't care about it, I looked at it first, and found that her expression was similar to mine, maybe her face was a little greener, probably she also saw her and smiled and waved at her." ”
Zeng Lai imagined this picture for a moment, for him who has seen a lot of ghosts, the impact is not big, who has not met one or two mirror ghosts.
Then he imagined again that if he was taking a shower, something that looked exactly the same in the mirror smiled at him, and he was honest with him while showering.
Zeng Lai felt that he might be going crazy by the ghosts.
Pushing the ghost animal image out of his mind, he cautiously asked, "What is it?" ”
Huai didn't know what strange picture he had just made up in his mind, and replied normally: "The ghost notice said that it is called [Good Friend]." ”
Good friends who take a bath together.
Zeng Lai looked desperate, feeling that his brain could not get through this pit.
I really want to cut myself.
Yu Xing had a little association with the attack method of this ghost creature after hearing this name.
Obviously, this thing is not a solid one.
He knows that there are many kinds of ghosts, so he will take the ghosts deduced in this scene as an example...... The Corpse Researcher and the Wailer are both tangible things, and good friends are not.
And his white coat zombie and good friend's attack method is more obvious - the former beats people with pipes and bodies, and the latter is nothing more than pulling people into the mirror or killing people through mirror images.
It's hard to say the attack mechanism of the Cryer and the Blood Array, whether the Cryer should answer the door or not? If the door is opened, does the cryer attack directly with the body, or is there another rule of cause and effect? Not to mention the blood array, except that it has a certain sensing range, Yu Xing doesn't know anything.
Some ghosts can refresh the ghost notification when they see it from a distance, some ghosts have to be activated, that is, they can only refresh the information if they are in close contact and are discovered, and some ghosts may not be able to find out that it is a ghost even if they see it. As for the basis for judgment, it is all up to the system.
Yu Xing asked, "What about after saying hello?" ”
Zeng Lai also barely managed to concentrate.
Huai's fingers twisted again on the pendant, which seemed to be his habitual movement.
He said: "The person in the mirror didn't move, as if he was really like a good friend, just saying hello." We were at a stalemate for five minutes, and then I was gone. When I got back to the bedroom, I looked in the small mirror in the bedroom, but it didn't follow, and I don't know if it was only in the bathroom, or if it was too weak to attack us for the time being. ”
Yu Xingxin said that the possibility of only existing in the bathroom is not high, otherwise this ghost will be too faceless, and he will only appear twice, once a night, to have a friendly meeting with the deducer.
And there is a high probability that there will be no clothes to wear when they come back, which is very miserable.
Looks like I'll have to check the mirror in the room when I go back to the bedroom......
Huai waited for Zeng Lai and Yu Xing to think for a while before saying: "There is one more thing, you just mentioned that there is no light in the corridor on the fifth floor, and I remember that when I was on the second floor, I saw a fire in a showroom. ”
Zeng Lai's eyes lit up: "Thank you." ”
……
Having said all this, both sides have received some new information.
At the very least, it shows that this alliance is sincere.
Zeng Lai touched his chin, he was almost full, and turned his head to look at Admiralty.
The hands are already pointing to 18:19.
He stood up, "The bathroom isn't close here, we should go." ”
Yu Xing was full of food and drink, and nodded when he heard the words.
Huai then got up: "That's it, if there is a new discovery after that, find time to reveal it to each other, if you find a new prop...... It's best to give a thorough explanation as well. ”
Props correspond to different ghosts, and if you count each other, you can coordinate and resist them together when you encounter ghosts.
After making a verbal agreement, the three of them left the hall and went upstairs.
Only the old butler was left silently and began to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, stacking them all up, and then carrying them to the transfer port in the corner of the hall one by one.
After doing this, he stood by the Admiralty again, as quiet as a machine without self-awareness.
Only the occasional movement of fingers, as if silently protesting against this illusion.
