Votes for the truth

After Xiang Nanxing said that answer, Nangong Qian was silent for a long time. In fact, in the process of his statement, she herself remembered some of the previous clues. For example, after the first round of voting, the bald Wang Bei took the case, Xiao Leping was so frightened that he hid behind the cover of the two of them, and Nangong Qian noticed that Huo Yinan and Wu Wenfeng were operating the tablet at that time, and they seemed to be communicating with each other.

But think about it carefully, what was Xiao Leping doing hiding behind them at that time? Maybe she was wrong at that time, Huo Yinan and Wu Wenfeng were not communicating with each other, but were using a tablet to receive a message from a third person!

Everything is on the right track. Xiang Nanxing's analysis is correct, it is Xiao Leping who is with those three people. Nangong Qian let out a long sigh.

At this time, she suddenly remembered what Xiang Nanxing had said to her before he began to state this long paragraph of reasoning, when he said that thanks to her previous prompt, he could finally see the truth behind it a little.

"So, the key is that the host is really one person corresponding to a group, right?" She confirmed.

"Yes." Xiang Nanxing replied, "Chris came in first, and was brought in by a host alone, followed by Xiao Leping and the three big guys. In this way, the matter of the four of them uniting was only seen by Chris. At this time, there was no observable pattern in the room, so although they saw that there was already a host, they would still think that they were the earliest. ”

"You remember, right? Before everyone arrives and the game begins, the door is open, and the host, despite being in charge of bringing people here, does not forbid players to leave the venue. I don't think that as long as you don't leave this house, it won't be considered disqualified, and Xiao Leping should have chosen to leave temporarily at this time, taking advantage of the fact that the group of people after that arranged a smoke bomb before they arrived. ”

"After that, it was Shen Junhao, Liang Jingmo and the masked man, their order can't be deduced for the time being, but it doesn't matter for the time being. I think the three of them came in separately because they were strangers when we first met. ”

"Didn't Liang Jingmo and Shen Junhao come in together? You've just deduced that they're in a group, and they did know each other beforehand, and pretending to be strangers or something was just a disguise. Nangong Qian wondered.

"A group, but it shouldn't come in together." Xiang Nanxing said, "In that case, the matter of secret alliance will be meaningless. If the two of them had come in together, the trio who had been here before them would have seen it. After Liang Jingmo went to roll the dice to reveal his identity with our gang, wouldn't Shen Junhao, who came in with him, be immediately confirmed to be on the same team? But judging from what just happened, it doesn't seem to be the case. ”

Nangong Qian nodded, and suddenly frowned: "But in this way, the two of them will occupy two hosts, so the number is ......."

"Yes, the first two, each of them occupies one, plus the host Yukihiko who is responsible for bringing us in, these are all five hosts standing in the venue at this time. But the total number of players they brought with them was only nine. Xiang Nanxing turned his face slightly and quickly looked at the masked man on the other side, and said slowly, "In this way, only he entered the venue without the guidance of the host." ”

Nangong Qian nodded. The only one of the people here is the Masked Man who wears a mask, who doesn't want to be seen by others, and who doesn't look like a normal player at all from the start of the game. No matter how intriguing they were, he just sat on the couch and pretended to sleep, and then fixed one vote for himself in each round of voting. On the way to seek an alliance, Xiang Nanxing and the others also sent a tentative message to this masked man, but in the end, they were like mud cows entering the sea, and there was no news.

If Xiang Nanxing speculated, the masked man was the only player who was not brought into the venue by the host, which undoubtedly added to the mystery on him. However......

"I don't need to delve into this question for the time being." Xiang Nanxing said, "The host's words just now have actually begun to prompt, but I almost didn't make it clear." I think if someone who was interested in 'that event' β€” such as Liang Jingmo or something like that β€” was there, most of them would have reacted immediately to the identity of the masked man when they heard the hint. ”

"The incident?"

"The incident that put me in jail."

His fingers tapped lightly on the tablet, and he tilted his head in thought. "In the Three Kingdoms game, Liang Jingmo risked his life to obtain a piece of information about that incident, and Luo Baichuan himself was the holder of that information, and both of them had come into contact with me seemingly by accident. At the time, I thought it was really accidental, but as I learned more and more, many fragmentary clues were connected. The reason why these two people approached me in the first place, and why I had a vague feeling of being treated specially, must have been because I was the only one who survived the incident. I must have done something that would have affected the outcome of the game on the other side that night, but I didn't notice it myself. They have been believing so, trying to find out the missing part of the truth from me. ”

Nangong Qian couldn't help but ask, "But what does this have to do with the masked man?" ”

"Miss Black Cat said that the White Night Festival is a resurrection war that gives the losing side in that 'war of stealing the country' a chance to make a comeback, so that we people have a chance to return to the civilized world, and it is just a benefit attached to the resurrection war."

Xiang Nanxing paused for a second and took a deep breath.

"In other words, the loser of that battle will participate in this game." He said, "Since my status is special, things like appearance treatment must be different from ordinary players like us." ”

It's him! Nangong Qian was shocked, and couldn't help but glance at the masked man again, this time the other party seemed to feel her eyes, and turned his head quickly. The eyes of the two made contact from a distance, and Nangong Qian's back suddenly seemed to be crossed by a sharp chill.

This is so strong that if there is a real killing intent, he rejected her peep in an instant, and sent and received freely. Nangong Qian had only felt similar things in the few elders of the family before, but all of them were people who had been through a hundred battles and killed people, and their hands were stained with blood, if they hadn't personally walked through that kind of Shura field, they would definitely not have such a temperament.

She shuddered, and quickly turned around. saw that Xiang Nanxing on the opposite side was turning his face and looking in the direction of the masked man at this time. He sat upright, his face as calm as water, and his eyes stared at each other indifferently without flinching, without any fear.

At this moment, his posture actually made Nangong Qian feel a little unfamiliar.

"Anyway, that's the way it is."

After a few seconds, he retracted his gaze and said leisurely: "That guy wearing a mask is the one who participated in the 'Stealing the Country' war, the level or something, and it is not the same thing as us ordinary players. Either he wasn't an accomplice of the three bigwigs, or he was simply the one who controlled them. If it is the former, the three bigwigs can't be sure of his thoughts, and they must keep a hand, so they won't let Xiao Leping's hole card reveal their identity too early. In other words, in this round, they will only rely on three people to vote, and the maximum number of votes concentrated on one person is three votes, and I will send a message asking Xiao Leping and Shen Junhao to participate in this vote together. At this time, although they have their own ideas, they still need to show that they are still willing to cooperate, and this message of mine is a step for them, and they will do it. ”

From Xiang Nanxing's face, Nangong Qian vaguely felt what the other party was going to do.

"You want me to win and stay and face them yourself?" Nangong Qian suppressed her voice and said, "I thank you for your kindness, but you deduced such a lot of things, and in the end you couldn't find their true purpose, right?" You rush to stay, this is pushing yourself deeper into the swamp, which is not a normal person's idea at all. Think clearly! ”

"If you don't play your cards in the normal way, you have a chance to beat your opponents who are not normal in their bones, right?"

Xiang Nanxing smiled: "And think about it, if I ask for a cooperative vote, the selected target can only be you, if I vote for myself directly, after they show their sincerity, who else can they find to cooperate?" ”

"Aren't you afraid? The smaller the number, the smaller your chances of winning! You've won so many games in the past few days, do you really think you can do anything? Don't be naΓ―ve! ”

"To be honest, I was very scared." He shook his head, "But I'm afraid it's useless, I can only find a way to choose the most advantageous strategy at the moment." Besides, if I stay, I have at least a little better chance of winning than you. ”

"Isn't it okay to give up on others?"

"I've done this once and don't want to have a second time."

He looked at Nangong Qian: "The same question is back to you: you refuse to leave, rush to stay, aren't you afraid of yourself?" ”

"The Nangong family has always been gracious! If I'm gone, it's a shame! Nangong Qian was anxious, "Just give up this round." Let the opponent win, and then we have the numerical advantage and fight for the last two spots together. If I stay, I can help you somewhat! ”

Seeing her appearance, the corners of Xiang Nanxing's mouth unconsciously showed a heartfelt smile.

"In fact, the fact that you were able to leave smoothly and put me at ease is the greatest help to me."

As he spoke, he turned the tablet around and showed Nangong Qian the contents on it. In the interval between the two of them saying this, Xiang Nanxing's hand was not idle, and the two messages had been typed and sent to the two people one after the other.

"Cast Nangong Qian. This is a condition of cooperation. ”

His words seemed impossible to refuse. Looking at those lines, Nangong Qian was silent for several seconds.

"So I can't do anything, can I?"

Rather than the joy of being escorted, another emotion obviously prevailed at this time. Xiang Nanxing looked at her stubborn face and nodded slowly: "That's it." ”

The voting ended a few minutes later, and the result was as he expected. Nangong Qian followed the guidance of the staff and exited. Before leaving, she removed the bracers she was wearing. This is one of the sets of protective gear that Xiang Nanxing gave her earlier.

"Someone told me that although the bracer is small, it is still armor after all, and it can save your life at a critical moment. If you take it, borrow it from him. ”

After she finished speaking, she viciously stuffed the bracer into Xiang Nanxing's hand, turned around and left.

Xiang Nanxing looked at the back of her leaving, until she was about to step out of the door, he saw that the back finally couldn't help but tremble slightly, as if the emotions that had been suppressed in these few steps were finally out of control at this time, she might be worried, maybe she wanted to cry, maybe she was angry, or these complex emotions gathered together, and she didn't know what to do. But no matter what, the staff had closed the door again at this time, and separated her little emotions from the door.

It's hard for her, too. Xiang Nanxing thought with a wry smile in his heart. This is obviously a girl with clear grievances, she has always been self-reliant, and she insists that she leave alone regardless of herself, even if it is for her good, it is probably a humiliation for her.

But now is clearly not the time to think about that. Xiang Nanxing took a deep breath and clenched his fist suddenly.

The truth of that night seemed to be within reach, and although he still didn't know how to pry the masked man's mouth open, at least he was close enough to find a way to do it.

On the other side, Shen Junhao obviously has another goal other than winning, which he needs to explain. And the three bigwigs plus Xiao Leping ushered in a great opportunity to completely control the situation at this time, and they will probably start their performances next.

sent away the fraudster Chris, sent away the elusive Liang Jingmo, and even let Nangong Qian leave, further reducing the number of people and simplifying the situation. However, the atmosphere that permeated this venue at this time was unprecedentedly complicated, and everyone was just waiting for a suitable time to explode with their own hearts.

So, find a way to get things moving. Xiang Nanxing thought.
