Chapter 7 The Three Types of Livelihood Paths

"The people on the train died, and then they were forgotten ......"

In room 1404 of the apartment, Dong Xie turned on the mobile phone on the speakerphone, put it in the center of the table, and listened to the message from Lian Zixin.

"Something to be expected." Mu Ziyi sat on the other side of Dong Xie and said, "If you want to kill on a large scale on the train without causing any alarm on the train, this is the best way. The train continued as usual in order for the blood words to continue. This may not be the power of the evil spirits themselves, but the intervention of the apartment. ”

"Listen to me," Dong Xie said to Lian Zixin on the other end of the phone, "What are the carriages that have been confirmed to be affected at present?" You record it. Then send it to me. ”

"I have records, there are currently sixth, nineth, twelfth, thirteenth, a total of four carriages."

"You're in the fifth car, but even the sixth car has suffered?"

Dong Xie was originally thinking that maybe the apartment would let the evil spirits start killing passengers in the farther carriage, and then move to the compartment where the occupants were located little by little. But in this way, it seems that this is not the case.

"Didn't you encounter any suspicious passengers?"

"For the time being...... I haven't met such a passenger yet, so can't be sure ......"

So far, there have been no casualties in the household. Judging from the fact that the occupants have not lost their memories, it is unlikely that there will be a situation where the occupants die and then they lose their memories. So, maybe the clues to the way out haven't been fully revealed.

It's just that the killing of evil spirits, no matter how you look at it, has no intention of avoiding the residents. Once the restrictions are lifted, the consequences are unimaginable.

Dong Xie looked at the mother purple clothes in front of him worriedly, and said, "You...... Any thoughts now? ”

Mu Ziyi looked at the mobile phone in front of her without thinking, took it to herself, and said, "Lian Zixin, judging from the information you provided, the limitation of this blood word mission is not space, but time and people. The restriction of evil spirits should be that a resident can only be killed after a certain period of time. If there is no restriction on space, once the residents cannot find a way out, they can only rely on luck to survive in the early stage. ”

"Is the evil spirit hiding among the existing passengers?" Lian Zixin asked.

"This actually doesn't mean much, it's not reasoning, even if you know who it is, it's meaningless, the train is so big, far less than the range of the evil spirit's attack, dodging doesn't increase the hope of survival."

When Dong Xie heard this, he thought for a while and said, "If it were you, what would you do?" With the available information? ”

After all, if the current situation continues, the residents will have to wait for death.

Mu Ziyi stretched out three fingers and said: "In general, the life path is roughly divided into the following three categories, first, the exempt life path, this kind of life path is generally the household through some means, so as to avoid the attack of evil spirits, second, the counter-life path, through some means, resulting in some kind of huge restriction on the evil spirit, or making it unable to move or move to other areas, or making it lose the ability or will to kill the resident or even anyone, and third, the complete life path, the resident borrows some kind of back hand left by the apartment, Kill the evil spirits in turn. ”

"Hmm...... So what could it be this time? ”

"It's all possible. However, from the general analysis, most of the blood characters' survival paths belong to the exempt type, followed by the countermeasure type, and the last complete type has the least number of complete kills. Let's say it's an immunity, for example, the blood word you performed not long ago to protect yourself from the attack of evil spirits by removing all the red color on your body. Residents, then, need to be given certain conditions that are different from those of other passengers. If it is counter-aggressive, then the killing range of the evil spirit needs to be reduced to certain carriages, or it needs to move outside the train and never return. ”

"Some kind of condition...... What's that condition? ”

"That's where you need to be on the spot. If you want to generalize the conditions, you need a large enough sample size to be able to perform statistics. ”

Speaking of this, Mu Ziyi covered her mouth and said, "Okay, I actually used some inappropriate words just now, after all, the so-called samples are also human lives." ”

"Judging by the current situation...... Killed occupants, age, gender, carriages, bunk beds...... I don't see anything in common. ”

"Six, nine, twelve, thirteen...... There are both odd and even numbers," Mu Ziyi muttered: "If there is no thirteen, it can be judged that the victim's car insurance is a multiple of three." Are you sure that the man in car 13 was killed as well? ”

"Yes, for sure."

"How many passengers in car thirteen are missing?"

"There are two, and we've asked people around us."

"How many did you ask?"

"Yes, there are three or four of them......

"It's unlikely that the evil spirit would have disguised himself as a passenger to give perjury. Can't be sure when he was killed? ”

"That's really ...... It's a bit difficult, we have a limited number of people, and we can't monitor every car at all times. ”

However, Lian Zixin listened to Mu Ziyi's analysis and began to have some confidence, after all, the other party was a giant-level resident with more than ten blood character experiences, and aside from good and evil, Mu Ziyi's ability to execute blood words must be beyond doubt.

At this time, he was in the tenth car, talking to Mu Ziyi and Dong Xie while observing the passengers.

"I feel that the victim passengers don't see much in common for the time being."

"That may not be an exempt way of life, but a counter-type way of life, and the key is to impose restrictions on evil spirits. However, there are no dead occupants yet, so there is a possibility that the information is not sufficient, so I should only use my words as a reference and do not draw conclusions lightly. ”

"Okay, thank you, Miss Mother." Lian Zixin knew that Mu Ziyi's willingness to make a move this time must be Dong Xie's face, he was not an ignorant person, "Dong Xie, thank you very much." ”

"Listen," Mu Ziyi gave him a suggestion: "From now on, record the passengers you see in each carriage, record them as much as possible with their obvious physical features, and then when you find that someone has disappeared, calculate the time before and after, and guess the time of the killing as much as possible, and maybe you can learn the killing and activity laws of evil spirits." It's also important that you check each other's passenger records as much as possible to see if there are any discrepancies. It may be possible for the evil spirits to erase your memories separately. ”

"Okay, I got it."

Lian Zixin took out a notebook and began to record every passenger in every carriage. According to the body characteristics and clothing of the passengers, the people in each compartment are recorded, and then patrolled repeatedly to see if anyone has disappeared.

After the mobile phone call hung up, Mu Ziyi raised her head, looked at Dong Xie, and said, "Do you have any ideas?" About this Scarlet Word mission. ”

"This ......" Dong Xie's lips squirmed a few times, and said, "I really have nothing to add." I feel like I still have a lot to learn compared to you. ”

"This blood character is limited to such a small range of trains," Mu Ziyi seemed to be very concerned about this: "This situation was relatively rare in the past. ”

"Hmm...... This is very ...... Does it matter? I've seen blood letters, and there were some people who used to do blood records on buses. ”

"What you are talking about is to let the residents deduce the identity of the evil spirits of the bus passengers, narrow the range of activities, and let the residents have no other buffer area except for deducing the evil spirits and countering them with the restrictions provided by the apartment, and the residents do not deduce the identity of the evil spirits, and the restrictions of the apartment cannot protect them in such a small space. But this time, this is not the case. ”

"That? This means...... What the? ”

"The reduced range of movement means that even if the apartment restricts the range and speed of the evil spirits, it is still too dangerous for the occupants. This may have something to do with the blood word. ”

"I, I don't quite understand...... Dong Xie felt that he was now on the first layer, and the mother purple clothes were probably at least on the tenth layer.

"Under normal circumstances, the scope of the activity space of the blood character itself is a kind of protection measure for the apartment. There are two possibilities for reducing the area of activity, first, the way itself may be to impose a new kind of spatial constraint. ”

"That'...... What about the second? ”

"The second is that the train, in fact, is far more than thirteen carriages, and there is a huge hidden space!"
