Chapter 59: Make Your Choice
"You mean ......"
Qiu Xuan lowered her eyelids and looked at the table, "Or it can also be said that what we think of as 'dead people' is not really dead. ”
"I went through everything that happened from the bus to the end, and then I found an entry point. Do you remember that Yang Luoluo grabbed your hand before she died and said that two people would bury her together, which means that she knows that if you die, I won't be able to live. But it doesn't make sense. Qiu Xuan looked at Gu Qingyue, "I have never told anyone that we are 'lovers', not even Qin Jiuyuan. ”
The man sitting at the table let out a snort that seemed to be an unpleasant complaint.
"I believe that you have no reason to say it, and without ruling out the possibility that some people have some special abilities, the only one who knows about this is only one person."
"One, who belongs to the same camp as us, 'teammates'."
"Lu Xingzhou?!" Gu Qingyue said in surprise, "But this is impossible, all the people present at the beginning saw him die with their own eyes." ”
"I don't want to admit this fact," Qiu Xuan stared at her drooping hair, as if she could trace back to the young man who was always as passionate as the blazing sun, "but eliminate all impossible options, and the remaining one, even if it is incredible, is the truth." It's a bit old-fashioned, but it's still true, isn't it? ”
She raised her head and whispered to the electronic voice, which was obviously impatient, "Lu Xingzhou." ”
“……”
"Dingding, ding! Answer is correct! Congratulations to the player Qiu Xuan for successfully finding the betrayer, and hereby reward a mysterious gift package - Dangdang, the blessing of the owner of the villa!! ”
Qiu Xuan didn't pay attention to this, just twisted his eyebrows and looked at the void, "What about Lu Xingzhou and the others?" Also, Li Siyao is dead, she gave me a blessing with her head? ”
No one answered her, and the electronic sound fell completely silent, and she even had the illusion that the electronic sound had disappeared.
The three of them sat in the great hall, as silent as if they were performing some kind of absurd play. If it weren't for the fact that "time" was in Qiu Xuan's pocket, she would have thought that they had been forgotten outside of time.
Wait, what about Nightmares? Qiu Xuan reached out and felt for his pocket, which was empty, and had long lost its familiar hourglass shape. She held her breath, only to realize that the silence around her was not normal. Qin Jiuyuan and Gu Qingyue maintained their last movement, still in place, motionless.
Time again, in front of her, pressed the stop button.
"Nightmare?" She shouted into the air, and it wasn't the familiar angry voice with its own sound card that answered her.
"Long time no see, 'sister'."
“…… Lu Xingzhou? ”
"I'm surprised that you can say that Nightmare guy is with you." A yellow-haired boy appeared beside her. Not a teleportation, not any kind of ability, he appeared without warning, as if he were part of the vast mountain villa.
"Shhh The young man showed her a bright and even a silly smile as he had ever done before, "Except for Yang Luoluo, how did you find out that I was a betrayer?" ”
Qiu Xuan wanted to say that it was about your fart/matter, but reason was frantically ringing the alarm bell in her mind, she pursed her lips, and finally spoke: "Half push and half guess, when you said 'you must win no matter what the cost', I felt that something was wrong." Later, I found out that it was you who had been deliberately guiding me. ”
"You're the one who told me that the mountain house game is 'absolutely fair' - though I don't know where the fairness is. It was you who gave me the key to the basement and deliberately told me Yang Bo's identity to recall Wendigo by my hand. You said that because of your special abilities, you can be protected from dream tapirs. You deliberately gave me the identity of the Mad Hatter so that I could get rid of Alice. It was you who led everyone to focus on Li Siyao, and it was you who ...... Wait a minute! ”
Qiu Xuan was suddenly stunned, and for a moment, an absurd thought appeared in her mind like lightning, "It's you...... Li Siyao, she is not ...... It's you! ”
"Finally found out." Lu Xingzhou sighed in an almost aria tone, "How can that kind of fool be worthy of my villa, you are really bluffed by her and dare not move, hahaha......"
He bent over and laughed happily, "'Sister', huh? Can a funny villa owner's 'game character identity' scare you? I've made a big bet on you, so don't let me down. ”
“…… What stakes? ”
"It's nothing, just a boring game between a bunch of old guys who have lived long enough." Lu Xingzhou laughed enough, and put his hand on his lower abdomen, "But in all fairness, according to the 'rules' of my game, in my game, you have already won more than half of it." ”
"Oh," he conjured up a delicate dagger with no visible material, and handed it to Qiu Xuan, "This is even a benefit personally issued by the owner of the villa, and if you eliminate your little lover, I will count you as a winner in this world." ”
“……”
"What, reluctantly?" Lu Xingzhou suddenly approached, and the dark brown pupils that once belonged to humans had been completely replaced by inorganic white, "Who kept saying that you must win?" It's not good to be so greedy, you have to make a choice. ”
“…… I have a question," Qiu Xuan opened his mouth, only to realize that his voice was too hoarse, "'Darkness', is it also involved in this bet?" ”
Lu Xingzhou's eyes narrowed suddenly, "Nightmare even told you this?" He tilted his head back a little, not knowing what he remembered, his expression full of disgust. You're not qualified to peek into something beyond your own knowledge, but I can tell you that the darkness, of course, participated. ”
Qiu Xuan stopped talking, she silently took the delicate dagger, lowered her eyelids and didn't know what she was thinking.
"There's not much time left for you," Lu Xingzhou urged, "If you still haven't solved it before dawn, haha, you won't want to know what the people who participated in the first Villa game have gone through." ”
Lu Xingzhou disappeared into the air in an instant, and the quiet time began to rotate again. Qiu Xuan was still sitting in that chair, and no one knew what she had experienced in the time she had been still.
"I really didn't expect Lu Xingzhou to be a betrayer." Gu Qingyue was still immersed in the results of the electronic audio announcement at the previous moment.
Not only that, he is awesome, he is not only a betrayer, but also the real owner of the villa, and he is also a big man of "agnosticism". Qiu Xuan had a cold face and teased in her heart expressionlessly, as if this would alleviate the complicated emotions in her heart.
"And bluffing a face ready to calculate people, huh? You look like you've just made a deal with the forces of evil. Qin Jiuyuan suddenly leaned into her ear and whispered.
She suddenly felt a burst of irritability for no reason, not knowing if it was aimed at Qin Jiuyuan or herself, or if it was aimed at the "darkness" of the dog/day.
She slapped Qin Jiuyuan's hand away, nodded briefly to Gu Qingyue, who was still a little stunned, and then raised her feet and walked up the stairs alone.
Qiu Xuan didn't see that on the long table behind her, Qin Jiuyuan helplessly rubbed the back of his hand that was reddened, and muttered something in a low voice.
