Chapter Ninety-Five: The Last Darkness
After shopping, I went back to my room, sitting quietly on the bed alone, I looked out the window at the depressed scenery, just like the loneliness in my heart, maybe in a few more hours I would know the identity of the dark lord, but I did not have the slightest joy of victory
"It was only by relying on Zhang Fan's prompts that he came up with this method to lock the Dark Lord, but until now, I still don't know how he stole the gift box, and I have emphasized many times before that the focus of this duel is not to find out who the Dark Lord is, but to crack his methods. Does reality always backfire? In the previous case, no matter how much I wanted to know who the murderer was, I solved the method first, but this time I obviously wanted to solve the criminal's method so much, but I could only lock the prisoner first? ”
This feeling of depression is really uncomfortable, and I just want time to pass quickly, and I keep looking at my watch
"I'm 50% sure of finding out the identity of the Dark Lord now, but even if I force him to use the tricks, can I really win? What is that incongruous place? Hey, lost and lost..."
I was alone for a long time before I received a call from Guo Hongyi
"Hey, Yang'er, okay, basically everyone is here now."
I replied lightly, hung up weakly, looked up and let out a long sigh, stood up, got dressed and walked to the banquet hall, I fantasized like a superhero to meet the final challenge, although I had a certain chance of winning, but I always felt that it was not glorious to win.
After entering the banquet hall, the atmosphere today is more enthusiastic than yesterday, probably because of the "talent show" on stage, there is now a group of English class girls on the stage performing a stage play, the attention of the students in the audience are attracted by them, and they are amused, no one notices my arrival, but this is better, I can carry out my own plans more calmly.
When I was ready, I looked at my masterpiece and couldn't help but smile wryly and say with a slight apology
"It must hurt... Sorry. ”
Immediately after that, I moved my muscles and walked straight to my seat, and my roommate saw that my face was still solemn, and judged that I still hadn't cracked the dark lord's technique, Guo Hongyi'an patted me on the shoulder and comforted
"Hey... Yang'er, don't think about it, this time it's because you're not in good health, so even if you don't crack his methods, it's a non-war crime, don't mind too much. ”
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, who said we lost, after all, I cracked his second technique, and the third time he might use, and after a while, according to the plan I told you, I can basically catch the dark lord."
I tried my best to control my expression and show a heartless look, but they knew me, although I usually looked shameless, but my self-esteem was still quite strong, and my roommates all had half-gloomy faces, full of unwillingness.
The performance on the stage changed from stubble to stubble, but we were not in the mood to watch, then it was a girl's turn to come on stage, saying that she wanted to perform a magic trick for us, she named Zhang Kexin to go on stage to cooperate with her performance, it can be seen that the girl may be very interested in the handsome Zhang Kexin, several of us saw this, and couldn't help laughing and coaxing, Zhang Kexin shook his head helplessly, put out the cigarette, waved his hand and walked on the stage.
The girl was a bit like imitating Liu Qian's feelings, and after Zhang Kexin came to the stage, she first asked in front of everyone
"Zhang Kexin, did I have a collusion with you in advance?"
Zhang Kexin pretended to think for a while and said
"Well, no."
"Okay, so you're definitely not my trust, are you?"
The audience burst into strong laughter, and Zhang Kexin nodded gentlemanly
"Well, that's right."
"Okay." The girl said hello, handed Zhang Kexin a coin, and said
"Check it out and see if it's a normal coin?"
After Zhang Kexin took the coin, he observed it matter-of-factly, nodded and said
"Well, it's just a regular coin."
In order to prove the uniqueness of this coin, the girl took out a marker pen and asked Zhang Kexin to write something on it to make a mark, at this time we don't know what kind of magic the girl is going to become, Zhang Kexin is also in the clouds, after taking the marker, he thought for a few seconds and drew a five-pointed star on it.
The girl took the coin, put it on the palm of her right hand and showed it to us
"Don't blink, everyone, the miracle is in an instant~"
Then she pressed her left hand against her right hand and counted it in her mouth
"1~2~3~Huh~" accompanied by the girl's "Huh", she pushed her left hand forward, and the coin in her right hand disappeared instantly, and the audience instantly burst into surprise, followed by strong applause, the girl stroked her arm, went to her sleeve, and turned over her body a few times, indicating that the coin was no longer on her body
"Guess where that coin is now?"
The girl put her hand into Zhang Kexin's pocket and pulled out a coin with a five-pointed star.
"Wow!" Seeing this wonderful magic trick made me feel amazed and feel a little better.
The girl asked, dangling a coin in front of Zhang Kexin
"Zhang Kexin, please take a look, is this the coin you marked?"
Zhang Kexin laughed "poof", then adjusted his expression, took the coin, and said after pretending to look at it a few times
"Well, yes, that's it."
I looked at Zhang Kexin's expression and guessed that he should have seen the girl's technique, and said that magic can only be seen from the front, not from the side and back, this sentence should be true.
After Zhang Kexin came back, Han Chen asked inquiringly
"Kexin, you're really not that girl's trust?"
Zhang Kexin pursed his lips and said
"Of course, I don't even know her, and I was a little confused when she asked me to go up."
Now Han Chen was even more curious and muttered
"So what's going on? The coin swiped from the girl's hand and into Kexin's pocket. ”
I looked at Zhang Kexin's smiling expression and made sure that he had seen through the magic trick, and asked
"Kexin, you should know what's going on, right? You weren't surprised when that girl took a coin out of your pocket on stage? ”
"Haha, yes, I feel like she's not very professional, so I can see the flaws." Zhang Kexin said
"What do you see?" Su Yong hurriedly asked.
Zhang Kexin took a sip of juice and explained
"Just now I stood on her side, I could see very clearly, her trouser belt was stuck with a prop like a small tape measure, which could stretch out the black leather rope, and the leather rope was embedded with a round magnet, when she pulled out the magnet, with the index finger and middle finger of her right hand, her arm blocked the black leather rope, before putting the coin on, she pressed the magnet with her thumb, and the people in the audience couldn't see it, and then she put the coin I had marked on the magnet, and then she blocked it with her left hand, and the index finger and middle finger of her right hand were separated, and the leather rope was instantly retracted, She snorted deliberately, just to hide the sound of coins and props colliding. ”
After listening to Zhang Kexin's words, Su Yong also suddenly realized and continued
"I see, and then she pretended to flip through her body a few times, in fact to remove the coin from the magnet and put it in your pocket?"
"Uh-huh, yes, I was watching her put the coins in my pocket, haha..."
"Bang bang!" Zhang Kexin's words made me feel like an electric shock, and my heart beat strongly a few times
"This feeling is coming again, what is it? Is it related to the case? Wait a minute, wait a minute, calm down..."
I slowly bit my nails and entered my own space again, obviously in a very noisy banquet hall, but I couldn't hear anything, in a white space, constantly thinking
"Magic, gift boxes, dry ice... Could it be? Wait a minute, but there is one more thing that can't be done, no, Su Yong said at that time..."
I hurriedly raised my head and asked Su Yongdao
"Brother Yong, you moved that gift box into the warehouse, and you said it was very difficult at that time? Is it? ”
Su Yong nodded blankly and said
"yes, that thing is old."
Su Yong misunderstood what I meant, and I asked again
"No, I mean, the rope that binds the gift box is flannel, how can you strangle your hands?"
Su Yong rubbed his hands and said reminiscingly
"It seems that there is iron wire inside the flannel, so it is quite strangled."
"I see! The last link is also unlocked! I said with a high spirit, as if the stone in my chest had finally been pushed away, and even my breathing became easier.
Seeing this, Su Yong and the others also became glorious and rejuvenated, and hurriedly asked
"Brother Yang, what does it mean to be unraveled? Do you know the methods of the Dark Lord? Or do you know who he is? ”
I looked at someone in the banquet hall, to the dark lord who hadn't been torn off his mask, and said with a smug expression
"Although it is somewhat surprising, the dark lord is... But you can't go wrong, the only one who can do this is that person! ”
Then I looked at Guo Hongyi again and said
"Brother Guo, I finally remembered, where is the incongruity!"
This matter has always made Guo Hongyi also very concerned, and hurriedly asked
"What the hell?"
"It's just..."
I was just about to explain that the lights in the banquet hall went out again, and we knew that this was the last attack of the Dark Lord, but compared to the previous uneasiness, I was now very calm.
"What! Why is the light off again! ”
"What the hell is this place?"
"What's the hair?"
The banquet hall suddenly complained, but with yesterday's lesson, everyone also had experience, and they turned on the flashlights of their mobile phones, and there was a glimmer of light in the banquet hall, and the boss had reached the point of being angry, and kept calling and scolding
"Hurry up and fix it for me! Or don't do it! ”
I quickly stood up and shouted
"Ladies and gentlemen, please don't move around! So as not to have a stampede! ”
I told my roommates what Zhang Fan told me yesterday this morning, and they all knew the reason why I said that, and they all shouted one after another
"Don't move, everyone, the lights will be on in a while."
Secretary Lu and the instructor saw that our group of boys were rarely sensible, and they also followed the order
"Yes, yes, don't move!"
This time the darkness lasted for a long time, lasting about 30 seconds, and after the lights were turned on, Secretary Lu finally couldn't bear to ask the boss
"Boss, what's going on? Why is there always a power outage? ”
The boss nodded and said
"Don't be angry, don't worry... The cause is still under investigation. ”
A few of us didn't care about the reason at all, it must have been the Dark Lord's doing, and the six of us looked around, looking for the disappeared person.
"Tinggo is gone!" Guan Shuang suddenly shouted.
Zhang Kexin said in disbelief
"How is that possible? Tinggo has a handle in the hands of the Dark Lord? ”
"Now is not the time to talk about that." Guo Hongyi said, took out his mobile phone and dialed Yu Dongting's number, and after connecting, Guo Hongyi hurriedly asked
"Brother Ting, where are you now? What the? In the open space outside? We're going to look for you now. ”
A few of us nodded to each other, and made up an excuse with Secretary Lu to run out of the door, and when I opened the door, I carefully tore off the tape, looking at the blood stains on it, I rolled my eyes, and said with some regret
"It seems to be a bit of a big game."
"There's no way, who would have thought it would be Brother Ting!" Su Yong spoke and opened the door.
A group of us ran towards the clearing, and sighed on the way
"The Dark Lord is really powerful, if it weren't for Yang'er guessing the techniques he might use in the third duel last night, I guess we'd all be confused now!"
Guo Hongyi said in accordance with the words
"Yes, in the dark time of 30 seconds, a strong man of more than 1.8 meters disappeared out of thin air, who is not afraid."
I glanced at them and said embarrassedly
"Uh... It's just a coincidence, a coincidence. ”
Su Yong didn't think so, and even praised me rarely
"Brother Yang is humble, it's really remarkable that he can think of this."
"Haha, haha..."I neither admitted nor denied it, just laughed dryly.
When we arrived at the clearing, we saw Yu Dongting lying on the snow, looking dazed and didn't know what was going on.
