Chapter 35: The Master of Reasoning

"Brother Mo Ming, please tell me how to please Xiao Fei's heart, please."

Yan Xi cried to Mo Ming and stared at Mo Ming very sincerely.

"Uh...... You asked me how to please my girlfriend, and it didn't quite fit."

Mo Ming didn't answer him directly, and repeatedly twisted a handful of bangs in front of his forehead with his hand, trying to change the topic.

"Well, don't act, I know you're not Xiaofei's boyfriend?"

Yan Xi's melancholy face suddenly became more comfortable, this should be the confidence An Xiaofei said.

"Why do you think that?"

Mo Ming was directly debunked, but he didn't intend to admit it, to be honest, helping other people's relationships is troublesome and sad.

"You can't be Xiaofei's boyfriend."

"Why? Did An Xiaofei tell you?"

So far, Mo Ming doesn't think that he has shown any flaws, and the only thing he can think of is probably what his brainless cousin said about leaking something.

"Ah, that, Xiao Fei wouldn't like that kind of gloomy man."

Yan Xi said the truth very naturally, but he didn't notice Mo Ming's complaining eyes.

"Hey...... Are you going to fight?"

"Well...... It's so fierce, Brother Mo Ming."

"Don't call me so affectionately."

Mo Ming tilted his head to the side, not wanting to see this annoying handsome face.

"Mo Ming, don't be angry, I'm sorry, Xiao Xi just spoke so straight."

Yan Wu said excessively with an apologetic face.

"Hey...... You're also very straightforward."

Mo Ming is very hurt, what loss has he caused to the society if he is so gloomy, right? That's all for me! Desperate! Despair of this society that forces the good to be superior.

"Alas, don't talk about this yet, how do you know I'm not her boyfriend, what I want is the basis."

Mo Ming is a little curious, the mismatch in personality or strange aesthetics can't be the decisive reason, and this guy is so sure, why?

"Well, Brother Mo Ming, in what capacity did you come to meet me?"

Yan Xi returned to his seriousness and asked Mo Ming very seriously, so that Mo Ming followed his thinking somewhat voluntarily.

"Boyfriend?"

"That's right, it's my current boyfriend. And I'm an ex-boyfriend, which means we're enemies on some level, but you're not hostile to me at all."

"Well, there are always some personalities who don't care that much, I don't think this kind of statement is rigorous."

"Brother Mo Ming, who has never been in love, you don't understand."

Yan Xi just explained a fact very simply, but Mo Ming felt a tingling pain, ah, why did his heart hurt, Mo Ming didn't understand it at all.

"If you decide to come, then with your position, there will definitely be some performance, such as open-mindedness or aggressiveness, there will always be some performance."

Mo Ming thought about the meaning of this sentence, and suddenly understood the reason for Yan Xi's actions.

"Oh, so you greeted me warmly to show your open-mindedness?"

"Well, I'm a little higher in status, aren't I?"

"Crooked ......"

"Haha, maybe it's crooked. But there's also the fact that after I said so many embarrassing things to Xiaofei, you can still maintain a completely calm expression, do you mean that you are broad-minded or have poor acting skills?"

"Well, it's me who doesn't play well."

Mo Ming admitted that what he said was very reasonable, this reasoning was very exciting, and the wonderful thing was that he quietly showed off the fact that he had rich emotional experience, which was really high.

"Mo Ming, in fact, my brother's brain is quite good, although it is used in the wrong way."

Yan Wu sighed a little, didn't he realize that his younger brother had made a mistake?

"What is a misguided path, this is the right way, you don't understand my love psychology, what do you know after being single for sixteen years."

"Hey...... You...... What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yan Wu's face was flushed, as if he had been poked in a sore spot, and he became as restless as an ant on a hot pot.

"Eh, it's so powerful, isn't it still dumped by Fei Fei."

Mo Ming said casually suddenly, and Yan Xi's whole person was depressed again, with tears in his eyes and a look of grievance.

"Hey...... Don't cry."

"Brother Mo Ming, teach me."

"Mo Ming, just talk to him a little bit, just hint at it."

Mo Ming felt an invisible pressure, the combos of the two brothers and sisters worked well together, but Mo Ming was not the kind of bad person, he had to make some deals. What can they do? After Mo Ming thought for a while, an idea came to his mind, yes, it can be like this!

Mo Ming hurriedly took out an A4 paper that had been folded horizontally and vertically four times from his pocket, and handed it to Yan Xi with a smile.

"That...... I feel that your reasoning is very interesting, this is a game of reasoning, if you can solve it, maybe I can reveal some secrets that An Xiaofei does not know."

"Well, that's right. That's great, I'll try it."

Yan Xi suddenly became full of fighting spirit, reading the title seriously, Yan Wu also stretched his head to Yan Xi's side with some curiosity, and approached to see the dense black characters on the white paper.

"What is this?"

After Yan Xi only looked at it for a while, he was a little puzzled, not understanding what Mo Ming wanted him to do.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this book is a brief description of a book of mystery novels, and I want you to think about the modus operandi."

"Oh, that kind of reasoning book, I know, but I'm not interested in reading it, so it probably won't help much."

"Don't worry too much, you can take a look first, don't worry."

Speculative novels are not picky about readers, and what kind of experience the reader is has nothing to do with the author, because often the resolution of events is just a small detail being figured out, that is, no matter who it is, as long as this detail is discovered, the truth can be obtained.

"Okay, I'll try then."

Got Mo Ming's encouragement, Yan Xi looked at the excerpt of the novel again, looked at it, frowned a little, Mo Ming found Yan Xi's expression, it turned out that thinking about encountering a bottleneck is this kind of reaction, Mo Ming seemed to see himself.

Yan Xi sometimes frowned, sometimes paused, and then resumed serious and continued to read, in short, the expression was quite rich, but the only expression was missing, that is, the kind of sudden openness that solved the problem. Mo Ming knew, Yan Xi couldn't do it.

After a short period of time passed, Yan Xi finally put down the blank paper, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Mo Ming seriously.

Yan Wu also finished reading it, but she seemed to be confused, and she didn't know what she wanted to say, but from the interpretation of her expression, it was probably a very powerful look, but what was this talking about?

"Brother Mo Ming, I think this novel is very interesting, I want to know the answer."

Qiu Linglong succeeded, and this reaction shows that the rendering is very good and can attract the interest of readers. But Yan Xi's words also show that he doesn't know the modus operandi and the murderer.

"Sorry, there is no answer, we have to think for ourselves."

"Don't you have an answer?"

Yan Xi bit her fingers, thoughtful.

"In other words, the answer is created by the reader, right?"

"yes, what can you think now? Not at all."

It's good to be able to know anything casually, Mo Ming feels that he may lack a little hint, just a little bit, through the hint, the answer will definitely come out.

"If you think about it, I don't have it, but I have an opinion, I don't know if it makes sense."

After reading it, it was a real reaction to be confused, but Yan Xi actually gained something, which made Mo Ming a little relieved, maybe this is a breakthrough.

"Please."

"If you ask the reader to think of an answer, it must be unexpected, right? It's like a montage, so you can't easily guess the ending, right?"

The montage, also known as O'Henry's ending, is unexpected, but reasonable. It makes sense, but it's something that readers can't easily imagine. I have to say that Yan Xi, a junior high school student, is a bit erudite.

"What does that mean?"

"I guess you can't think along the author's train of thought, you have to exclude the most likely first, and then exclude the most descriptive one, and the rest is the truth."

"Alas, you mean that Manager Liu and Secretary Wu were excluded?"

From his words, this is what it means, Manager Liu is the most suspicious, so it is ruled out. Secretary Wu described it the most, so it was ruled out, and the next ones were three people who looked like dragons and might actually be murderers.

"That's right, if I were the author, I wouldn't let these two men be murderers."

It's really interesting reasoning, realistic reasoning beyond the story, knocking on the thoughts of the author of the story, Yan Xi is a little out of common sense.

"Well, there's some truth."

Mo Ming nodded, and then glanced at Yan Wu again, Yan Wu still thought seriously, Mo Ming wanted to hear the opinions of others.

"Well, what do you think?"

Yan Wu realized that she was being questioned, and then became a little unsure.

"I think...... Secretaries and managers will be murderers."

Mo Ming smiled when he got this answer, because Yan Xi's statement was completely confirmed, and the murderers selected by readers were generally these two people, what if it was really one of these two people? Isn't that the majority of readers winning the game against the author? That...... Isn't that a mystery novel where the author loses to the reader? Did Senior Sister Qiu Linglong's original intention to fail? Not really.

"And who do you think will be the murderer?"

Mo Ming turned his head and began to ask Yan Xi again, because this guy seemed to have his own plans.

"A murderer? I think it's the manager and the secretary, but this answer is wrong, and two of the remaining three are obviously fine, so the murderer should be the one."

Is it possible to directly calculate the murderer, strange brain circuits, Mo Ming can't understand this kind of answer that doesn't rely on conditional reasoning.

"Are you sure?"

"Well, it must be, if I were the author, I'd make him a murderer."

Yan Xi's face was determined, and Mo Ming had nothing to say, because this person's words were still very reasonable, so the key is, how did the technique be realized?

It is indeed much easier to calculate the modus operandi based on the murderer, but how to do it? How could someone in the building complete a sniper killing?

Mo Ming couldn't figure it out, it was impossible for the sniper book to be carried out indoors, because the bullets flew in from outside. From the outside? Wait a minute! Bullets from the outside!

I understand!
