Chapter 1: Before the Storm
When he opened his eyes again, Yu Xing was still sitting on the big chair in his bedroom, in a casual posture and in a lazy state.
The investigator's analogy doesn't consume real time, it's still a cloudy evening, and he remembers that he barely ate the next day in the game, and his stomach growls.
Just when it was time for dinner, Yu Xing rubbed his hair, stood up and moved his back, and walked out of the bedroom towards the kitchen.
The refrigerator was well stocked, he looked at the ingredients, and decided to make sweet and sour pork ribs, kung pao chicken, tomato scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, and a bowl of seaweed egg soup...... All in small portions.
has been single for so long, and his cooking skills are improving day by day, and Yu Xing often feels that even if he doesn't have this face, he can seduce with his cooking skills - ah no, he captures a lot of girls.
He expertly put on his apron and worked with various knives to make changes in his personality mask as he watched in his mind.
In fact, after the end of the coffin village, his panel has not changed much, nothing more than that the deduction score has increased from 233 to 934, which is only 66 points away from being promoted to an intermediate deduction player.
[Personality Offerings: *|*^ (Data Error), Tears of the Candle (Worn 2/6)]
Before entering the coffin village, Qu Zhiqing mentioned to him the rules for the ability of the sacrifice, the same sacrifice, after fusing with different personality masks, will have different forms and abilities.
He also just knew this, because before he became a deducer, he could only hear some [absurd] general information from these people, and the specific information was bound by the rules, and the deducer could not tell ordinary people.
At the moment, he also wanted to see what had become of the candlestick.
After obtaining the Soul of the Candle, it was automatically put on Yu Xing's personality mask, and a small black prismatic pattern appeared on the left cheekbone of the mask, and a flame with only light and shadow burned on it.
He wiped his hands on his apron, and with a thought, he peeled the sacrifice off the mask, and his hands sank.
A simple and exquisite closed hexagonal prism Chinese hand-held candlestick appeared in his hand, and he pinched the hard ring above the candlestick with two fingers and lifted the candlestick.
How so...... The appearance of this candlestick has changed too much, like a beautifully made marquee, with different complex patterns carved on the six sides, I can't tell what material it is, black, like bamboo, like wood, and even a little like iron.
Slightly deep, from the fine hollow surface in the middle of the line, you can see that there is a candle inserted inside, perhaps because of the light, Yu Xing couldn't tell whether it was a red candle or a white candle for a while.
He focused his mind on the past, and easily got the information about this sacrifice.
γOffering: Tears of the Candleγ
[Form: Chinese hand-held candle holder]
[This sacrifice has been fused with the "Personality Mask β’ Luck", and the fusion ability is: (1) Lighting a white candle, the wielder will enter a pseudo-ghost state, in which the breath is equivalent to that of a zombie-like ghost (which can deceive a low-IQ ghost), the body is stiff and corrupted, and the attack power is slightly increased.γ There is no time limit, and you can use it at most once at a time. (2) Light the red candle, and all contemplable things within the scope of the light will indiscriminately enter a state of gradual decay and trance, lasting for ten seconds, and can be used at most once at a time. (1) and (2) Abilities can be used separately. γ
[Description: After merging with the personality of the interpreter Yu Xing, the appearance of the sacrifice has become an antique carved hand-held candlestick, and there is a candle in the candlestick at all times, and the color changes with the ability to use, which is very powerful. γ
[Note: Although its style has improved a lot, please don't carry it in white at night, otherwise people may think that they have seen the most handsome ghost in history, and the hot search headlines will be you the next day.] γ
Yu Xing: "Alas~" I know I'm handsome, but I don't even need to praise me for the annotations.
His attention is focused on ability (1), and his pseudo-ghosting and unlimited time have piqued his interest.
In other words, if he wants to, can he even use the ability (1) as soon as he enters the game, and then complete the whole deduction with a corpse-like body?
Seems interesting......
Moreover, Yu Xing had something else in mind.
If it is a state of white candle lit, he ...... Will there still be a negative state in his body? After all......
There was a "thump" that woke him up from his thoughts.
He looked down and saw that he was holding a kitchen knife in his right hand and a candlestick in his left hand, and before he knew it, he had slashed the kitchen knife on the cutting board, and the blade was deeply embedded in it.
Using consciousness to retract the candlestick, Yu Xing touched his nose with his empty left hand: "I'm sorry, the cutting board, in fact, I just want to buy a new one because you don't like it." β
Cutting board: WDNMD.
β¦β¦
"I'm willing to accept your commission."
After spending two hours to solve dinner, Yu Xing took out his mobile phone and played for a while, and just after he quit, he received a voice call from Zhao Mou.
On the other end of the call, Zhao Mou's voice sounded calm and warm, and people who were not familiar with him would never associate him with the "cross talk actor" when he got along with Zhao Yijiu.
"Mr. Zhao Mou seems to be in a good mood?" Yu Xing sat at the desk in the study, with a book spread out in front of him, of course, he was playing with his mobile phone just now, and the book was lonely.
"Well, there is something to find a clue, the family asked me to rush back to Tianjin, Xiaojiu here, he has completed the mask evaluation, you promised me, don't break your promise."
Yu Xing heard a murmur around Zhao Mou, and it seemed that he was at the airport, and it seemed that there was indeed something important that needed to be flown away overnight.
"Yes."
It's just a beginner-intermediate stage to protect Zhao Yijiu, and he believes that with their ability, after the main quest is completed, and a deduction is added, they can almost be promoted to the senior level.
Zhao Mou was sitting comfortably in the waiting hall in a suit at this time, listening to the announcement of the flight time on the radio: "By the way, what do you want me to pay attention to, I have some information for you." β
Yu Xing's pupils shrank, and the fingers holding the phone tightened suddenly, but in just a moment, he returned to normal: "Is it a single prism?" β
"Yes, I don't have any information about him for the time being, but I have an interesting revelation this morning."
The reason why Zhao Mou has become famous recently, in addition to his IQ and layout, there is also a very important reason - the divination ability brought to him by one of his sacrifices.
No one can be sure which sacrifice allowed Zhao Mou to obtain this rare ability, not only divination, but also some omen and luck, and some people even guessed that he had more than one related sacrifice, otherwise he would not be so strong in this regard.
Yu Xing also understood this in Qu Zhiqingkou, so he set the object of cooperation on Zhao Mou, because in terms of investigation ability alone, he himself is not bad, and Zhu Yan is a helper, only divination, this special power is something he does not have.
"What kind of revelation?" He asked.
Zhao Mou was bored and fiddled with the puppet pendant tied to the handle of his suitcase: "Tomorrow, in the southwest of Mijin City, the celebration, the single prism member you want will leave clues there." β
"I remember." Yu Xing hung up the phone after two words of thanks,
Southwest, Celebration ......
He raised an eyebrow.
Isn't that Ruibo University?
A member of Prism will appear at Repo University tomorrow?
Thinking of this, his gaze turned cold.
All members of Prism are insane, antisocial personalities and anti-human personalities abound, almost all members are degenerate lines, and generally whenever they appear, they are bound to cause death and disaster.
Ruibo University has Zhu Yan in ......
It seems that he must be there as soon as possible tomorrow, so as not to cause something to affect Zhu Yan.
After all, she's just an ordinary person.
β¦β¦
Ruibo University, University Anniversary.
As an annual festival, the school celebration has always been very popular.
On this day every year, Ruibo will open tour areas, small game areas, and open the campus in all corners of the campus, so that visitors can come in and visit, and the school celebration will be turned into a large-scale exhibition.
It is said that the original purpose of the school celebration was to promote the campus culture of Ruibo, but the school was too big for the person in charge to manage, so the right to hold activities was handed over to various clubs.
After several activities, Ruibo's school celebration has become a small festival for the people of Yajin City, and many people outside the school will go to join in the excitement that day, resulting in a full flow of people in the school.
Yu Xing didn't like to make up for people, especially in summer and winter, in summer, people can die of heat, and in winter, they are like spheres crowded together, and it is annoying to talk to those who want WeChat.
He originally planned to accompany Zhu Yan from beginning to end to hang out and have fun, supporting Zhu Yan in front of her classmates, so that he could not lose people, but now it seems that he still has to check the movements of the single prism.
Early in the morning, after confirming the time with Zhu Yan, Yu Xing deliberately cleaned up.
He wore a large white printed T-shirt, the full name on the Internet is "five-quarter sleeve Korean boys' trendy brand loose college style T-shirt", although he can't understand the use of such a long string of prefix suffixes, but the name is dissuaded, the clothes themselves are okay, casually put on a pair of five-point jeans, after wearing a rough sports bracelet, it is indeed pleasing to the eye, and it looks a lot younger.
Well...... This was bought by Zhu Yan on the Internet according to her personal aesthetics, and Yu Xing estimated that wearing it like this is more in line with the taste of contemporary young people.
At least Zhu Yan should be quite happy, just like when he held a parent-teacher conference for her before.
Yu Xing put on a peaked hat and went out of the community, bought four buns, swept a small bicycle on the side of the road, and went in the direction of Ruibo University.
When he arrived at the school gate, Zhu Yan was talking in the shade with a few friends, as if he was waiting for him.
Yu Xing parked the car and found that it was only nine o'clock, and there were already a lot of people, he ignored all kinds of eyes from the people around him, and walked towards Zhu Yan with a light footstep.
"Is it true that my brother is not a boyfriend? Didn't you say that your family members are not in Mijin City~" He has good hearing, and he can hear the light-makeup girl next to Zhu Yan joking.
"Stop making a fuss." Zhu Yan's hair is tied into a ponytail, and she wears a very designed off-the-shoulder T-shirt and high-waisted hot pants, and the hem of the dress is tucked into the pants, revealing her slender waist.
As soon as she heard this question, her brain hurt, and it was not easy to explain, so she could only guess with her classmates: "You show affection every day, just forget it, don't always think that everyone else is out of the list." β
"Cut, how can I show affection." The girl with light makeup said as she grabbed the arm of her boyfriend next to her.
Zhu Yan rolled her eyes at her.
These are all members of her music club, who have nothing to do in the morning, and come over to wonder who she invited.
Anyway, why hasn't Yu Xing arrived yet......
Just thinking about it, she guessed the answer from the sudden change in the eyes of her friends.
The next moment, a plastic bag containing oily buns was put on her fingers, and there was a smile in the familiar voice: "Breakfast, vermicelli stuffing, hurry up and eat it." β
