Volume Twenty-Three: The Masquerade Chapter 8: The Verge
readx;
Previously, An Xueli had discussed this blood word with Sayoko Kamiya many times. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info because she has the highest makeup skills, so she is also the most favored in the Kamiya League.
A sentence of "any way" in the blood word can seal all retreats. At that time, there were also many people in the alliance who gave advice.
Especially on the day of departure, An Xueli also talked to Sayoko once.
At that time, after talking to Sayoko about the "pen talk", the latter replied to her, "If it's possible, it's better not to write anything." The pen talk itself is a trap. For anyone. ”
"But ......" An Xueli asked a little unwillingly: "Feilian once mentioned an idea to me, for example, all residents write a 'I am not so-and-so' content on the paper, denying that they are a certain householder, and that household does not need to deny it, so in the end, there must be only two people who can't write anything, one is that householder, and the other is a ghost, and then it is replaced by another resident, and the same is a ghost who doesn't write anything...... Isn't that a good idea? ”
Sayoko replied expressionlessly, "I said it." The pen talk itself is a trap. Smart people don't use this method at all. No, it's better not to have any communication, that's the best thing to do. In the way you just mentioned, if a resident does not write a negative word in that situation, he himself will be killed by the Shadow Curse. Because in that case, 'not to deny' is to 'affirm', and there is no difference between admitting that you are a householder. Residents can actively investigate whether other people are residents or ghosts, but they must not leak the slightest information through written conversations. ”
"How, how...... So, what if different people are denied separately? When the time comes, from different situations, it may be possible to ...... from the way of collection, permutation and combination"
"Collection, permutation? Do you think it's a high school math course? This blood word is not a probability theory, nor is it a permutation and combination, and it cannot be inferred through mathematical statistics and other methods. Either way, if you actively engage in an act with the intent to reveal your identity, the Shadow Curse will be activated when that action causes your identity to be known. Blood, residents are never allowed to reveal their identities through 'any means'! If anyone does that, you just wait for him to be cursed by the Shadow and killed! ”
"How, how could it be? So, what do you think? Miss Kamiya? ”
"Remember, don't give out anything that can be identified, and don't even admit that you are a resident on a sticky note. Then, on top of that...... You have to observe everyone's behavior. If I'm not mistaken, the apartment should make a difference between the ghost and the resident. And that difference will be decisive......"
This is the end of the memories. An Xueli came to the note and looked at it. The note read: "I am not Ouyang Feilian. ”
This...... What's going on?
Suddenly, An Xueli looked at the man with a burned face, and then noticed his shadow!
The shadow began to shatter little by little! And the person whose face was burned also began to shatter little by little, and then countless cracks appeared in the whole body! Then, the whole person began to let out a scream, and fell to the ground, reduced to a mass of debris! Immediately, those fragments also disappeared with the shadows......
This is the scene where Roland's shadow curse experiment in the past caused the death of the occupants due to the decomposition of the shadows! The decomposition of the shadow obviously began after the paper was written, but this process would last more than ten seconds. Unlike the general shadow curse, people can still move freely during this time, but when the shadow completely decomposes, it will also completely collapse and disappear completely from this world!
Inside the bar, there was silence for a while. And An Xueli was almost collapsed to the ground.
At that moment just now, the name Ouyang Feilian immediately appeared in her mind. I'm not Ouyang Feilian, but I am afraid that the person who wrote this sentence is Ouyang Feilian herself!
She's experimenting! She was wondering if everyone could reveal everything without touching the shadow curse if everyone wrote "I'm not so-and-so (so-and-so is my name)" on a piece of paper.
But apparently this is not possible. As long as this will result in the identity being revealed, the Shadow Curse will be triggered, whether by indirect means or whatever.
People couldn't speak, but actions took the place of their answers. No one walked up to the table with the dice, and no one even wrote anything anymore.
Writing is meaningless.
At this time, An Xueli couldn't help but look at the zombie old man!
Could it be ...... Did he already know? He had known for a long time that there would be such consequences?
Sure enough, there is no way to cheat. Only by finding out other people's identities and exposing their identities is the consequence, Ouyang Feilian is the best end. Although she couldn't be absolutely sure, An Xueli knew that the one who was killed by the shadow curse was Ouyang Feilian. She didn't even die at the hands of a ghost, but from a shadow curse!
Everyone continued to sit down and distance themselves from each other. At this point, I'm afraid everyone's plans are different.
One has already been ruled out.
This was the only thing that came to Ann's mind in the end. Yes, six people, one has been excluded. The rest are the One-Eyed Demon, Medusa, Mummy, Pumpkin Head, and Zombie Elder.
An Xueli was supposed to mourn Ouyang Feilian's death, but she was a little glad that there was one less person.
This sentiment is very contradictory.
The zombie old man remained motionless at all times, occasionally touching the crutch, and other than that, he basically didn't do anything.
After the blood word began, quickly, half an hour passed. The six of them sat motionless.
Surrounded by fear, An Xueli can only continue to think about countermeasures. In any case, when a real occupant is killed, she has to think of a solution.
Is there any way to tell who is not a resident? Sayoko said that the apartment will make a difference between the ghost and the resident. And that difference is the way of life.
But what's the difference?
So far, Ann Xueli really doesn't know what the difference is. Almost no one speaks, and now they don't even write. One by one, they are like sculptures.
In this way, until a resident is killed, no conclusion can be drawn!
Difference...... You'll definitely find the difference!
If you mix a red bean in a large pile of black beans, then it is naturally very conspicuous. But if you throw a blackened red bean into the black bean, there is no way to find it easily. At this time, only by pouring a bucket of water into it can the black color be washed off and the red beans can be clearly seen.
The above is what Sayoko Kamiya said to Ann Xueli. That is, all she had to do was find a way to pour that bucket of water. How to find that bucket of water depends on her luck.
An Xueli tried her best to calm down, now, it is useless to be impatient, the only way is to think about how to find this solution according to what Sayoko said.
She didn't think that this was the moment of the killing, that once the killing began, the killed occupants would not know about it, and that if it was fair to all the occupants, it would have been found before the first person had been killed.
This is also known as a life path prompt.
Of course, many of the hints given by the apartment are very subtle and require quite divergent thinking to be able to take into account and even difficult to verify. Although there are multiple possible ways to survive, almost none of the residents have found more than one way to survive.
Is it really possible to have multiple ways to survive? It's always been a mystery. And now, An Xueli can only try from many aspects, no matter what, as long as she can find a clue......
As long as you can find a clue......
However, the train of thought was completely clogged. No matter how I think about it, I feel completely trapped in a labyrinth, and I can't think of any way out of it.
Way...... Way......
Is there a way to do it?
Looking at the discarded dice on the table, Ann Xueli felt a pang in her heart. It might have been a good idea, but now it's ......
Suddenly, Medusa stood up, and then, step by step, she walked towards the location of the card! Everyone immediately began to gather, not knowing what she was going to do!
I saw Medusa actually speed up her pace and rushed to the front of the card! Then, grab the card!
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
For a while, many people rushed straight to it, and the first pumpkin head pulled out a dagger! And the one-eyed demon who rushed in the other direction also grabbed a chair!
Of course, because of the fear that Medusa is a ghost, everyone is cautious. However, since someone has seized the card, then the consequence is naturally the beginning of the fight!
This scene made An Xueli unbelievable. And immediately after, the pumpkin head grabbed the dagger and rushed towards Medusa!
Sure enough, as the saying goes, rabbits will bite when they are forced to be in a hurry! Even if you are afraid of ghosts, when the threat of death hangs in the air like a sword of Damocles, no one thinks about the consequences anymore. What's more, once the card is in hand, if the ghost reveals his true face, he can use the card to kill the enemy instantly! The biggest weapon in everyone's hand is that fountain pen!
The people are not afraid of death, so why should they be afraid of death! This sentence is the best description of the current chaotic situation! And An Xueli also began to realize that this situation was inevitable.
Because as long as you have a card, when the ghost wants to kill someone, you can write at the moment when you determine the identity of the other party! However, for those who don't have cards, they are like birds with broken wings, which can only be slaughtered by others and cannot fight back!
Medusa dodged the dagger, then shook her body and fled towards the door of the bar!
The blood word stipulates that as long as you stay on the seventeenth floor, even if you leave the bar, it doesn't matter.
But by this time, the doorway had been blocked. The one blocking the door is the zombie old man! The old man was holding a cane and glared at Medusa like this!
Pumpkin Head and Cyclops followed, and the mummy rushed over!
Ann knew she had no choice. Immediately grabbed the table, and then pushed hard at Medusa's back!
Kill!
All martial arts are staged suddenly!
In any case, you have to get the card!
