Chapter Ninety-Six: The Deadly Game of the Death Train (7)

(2-in-1 update, one more to come)

"Ha~ha~ha~ha~!"

Crowded like the train carriage during the Spring Festival reverberated with the weird laughter of the clown Sith, he looked at Cheng Mo smiled and bent over, then straightened up and stroked his chest with his left hand, and shook his right hand at Cheng Mo, "Sorry!sorry!I'm not laughing at you, I'm not laughing at you! I just didn't expect that the first person who had the courage to play games with me was actually a child.....

But suddenly his laughter stopped without warning, he looked at Cheng Mo raised his hands, and said seriously in his slightly hoarse voice: "You are braver than most people, really, I have noticed you, you have always been calm, I like children like you....." His fingers rotated a few times around his temples, "I like a thinking child like you!"

The clown Sith held his hand on his waist, then looked at Cheng Mo, and said in a low voice: "THEN GOOD BOY, LET'S SEE WHAT GAME YOU WANT TO PLAY WITH ME, AND WHAT KIND OF BET CAN YOU COME UP WITH?"

The carriage was silent, the clown's laughter and words warmed up the cruel and cold atmosphere in the carriage slightly, the praying people forgot to pray, the crying people forgot to cry, and the people who were still thinking about rushing to the 12th carriage also forgot to exert force, and everyone turned their eyes to Cheng Mo, who was located at the back of the carriage, near the junction of 13 and 14.

At this time, their brains, which had been frightened, were running, and they remembered that the Clown Sith had asked "if anyone would like to play a game with him", and everyone heard this, but who would dare to take a madman's words seriously? Who would dare to joke with a madman with his own life?

Cheng Mo actually has an advantage over most people, he heard the Clown Sith question from the gangsters in the intercom conversation as early as the ninth car, and he realized that this was an opportunity to live, through the observation just now, he thought that he could also pay the ransom, but this price was too heavy not to mention, and it meant that he had to leave Xie Minyun behind.

Of course, he can also ask the clown Sith to ransom two people out, just relying on the BUG skill left to him by his father is enough, but in the face of a clown who does not play cards according to common sense, Cheng Mo can imagine that when he takes Xie Minyun forward to ask for redemption, the clown Sith will not care how much price he pays, he will only smile and say to him: Two can only go one, let him choose.

A person like a clown who likes to play with people's hearts, what he loves to see most is the struggle of human nature, he likes to see both the ugliness of human nature and the greatness of human nature, in short, he likes - drama.

Cheng Mo couldn't sacrifice himself to let Xie Minyun leave, but he couldn't just give up Xie Minyun and run away by himself.

He was never a noble man.

Hearing the words of the Clown Sith, Cheng Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, no one in the front carriage chose to "play the game" This is a major benefit for him, the Clown Sith seems to be doing things without logic, in fact, he is the most logical, as long as he understands his psychology and does what he likes, he will definitely be able to pass the test safely, he is sure, so Cheng Mo calmly asked: "The game is up to me?"

Xie Minyun noticed that Cheng Mo was confident, but she was afraid that Cheng Mo would have some scruples for her, so she held Cheng Mo's hand, gently pinched it twice, and whispered in his ear: "You can go, don't care about .....me" At the end, Xie Minyun also added, "If you can leave, I can also leave....."

Cheng Mo also pinched Xie Minyun's wet and tender hand twice, but he didn't speak, just nodded, as if he was promising Xie Minyun, and as if he believed that Xie Minyun could also leave by himself.

Xie Minyun also calmed down and planned to see what Cheng Mo would do, she breathed a sigh of relief, sincerely happy that Cheng Mo had found a glimmer of life, but she was also worried that Cheng Mo would not be able to pass the test.

As for herself, Xie Minyun hadn't had time to think about it yet.....

Some smart people also realized that this was an opportunity, and they all looked at Cheng Mo and the Clown Sith intently.

Xie Minyun said to Cheng Mo naturally couldn't hide the hearing of the clown Sith, he looked at Cheng Mo with interest and dared to ask him a question, "Because you are the first person who is willing to play games with me, so I will give you some preferential treatment, the game is up to you, as long as I think this game is interesting enough, bet or something.... I don't have to worry about it....."

Cheng Mo turned to face the Clown Sith, he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Chess..... I'm good at chess. ”

In fact, his heartbeat was not fast at this second, far less calm than he looked, but the habit he had developed over the years made him look very relaxed.

"Chess?" Sith shook his head, "You just picked a game I hate....." he shrugged his shoulders, "black and white chessboards, troublesome rules, hierarchical pieces.... It's terrible..."

Cheng Mo had already prepared for this situation, and he said lightly: "We can play in a fun way...."

"Oh?"

"This kind of play..... We can call it a deadly game. ”

Hearing Cheng Mo say the words "deadly game", the clown Sith touched his chin with his hand, "You have successfully aroused my interest, explain." ”

"Each child represents a real person, I am willing to be my own king, and find other fifteen children from here who are willing to participate in the game to play against you, then my bet is my life and the other fifteen people....."

Although Cheng Mo couldn't see the expression behind the clown Sith mask, not even his eyes, Cheng Mo could see that his body was trembling slightly, which was a sign of extreme excitement, and the voice of the clown smashing his mouth sounded in the microphone, he laughed "haha", and then said in a brisk tone: "Interesting, interesting.... That's how it's fun to play chess.... Come, come, I promise you, then now you hurry up and choose the other fifteen! I can't wait!"

Cheng Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief, this game can be said to be tailor-made for the Joker, as for whether he will definitely win, Cheng Mo does not know the chess level of the Clown Sith, and is not 100% sure, but with his record of 2300 points on the professional chess platform Playchess, it can be regarded as the top group in the professional level.

Therefore, the question of winning is not big, the key is that he has to find fifteen chess pieces, and it is not difficult to default to it, even if he is a "soldier" with the largest mortality rate, it is better than staying here and dying, right?

Cheng Mo didn't make any superfluous moves, neither sensational nor excited, but asked in a calm tone, "Senior sister, believe me?"

Xie Minyun grabbed Cheng Mo's hand and nodded, she didn't expect that in such a situation, Cheng Mo didn't escape alone, and wanted to save her, she knew that Cheng Mo could win, she had already developed a kind of blind confidence in him, but she was not so happy, because not only could she not help Cheng Mo, but also needed Cheng Mo to try her best to save her, so although she had the joy of being able to continue to live in her heart, she was also a little disappointed.

All in all, at this moment, Xie Minyun's inner emotions are very complicated, moved, ashamed, happy, regretful.... and some sweetness, so sweet that Xie Minyun actually wanted to feed Cheng Mo a candy to commend Cheng Mo's outstanding performance, but although this sweetness is deep but very bland, for Xie Minyun, the strongest feeling is a kind of powerless guilt.

She couldn't save the people around her, nor the others, and this guilt gnawed at her heart like a swarm of carnivorous ants.

Cheng Mo had no distractions at the moment, he still had to fool a few cannon fodder, he turned his head to look at Evans, then turned his head to look at Nicholas and Ivan, and looked around as if he didn't know them at all.

Then he said aloud in Russian: "Maybe some people understand, maybe some people don't, but now I tell you, now there is a chance to live, and I need fourteen warriors who volunteered to be pawns..... I can tell you that I am called Fat Man 123 on the Playchess platform, with 2357 points, and I have defeated Magnus Magnus, who is a men's international master..... I promise I can defeat the Sith the Clown and keep you alive....."

As he spoke, Cheng Mo quietly kicked Nicholas, and Nicholas immediately raised his hand when he heard the song, and then Ivan and Nicholas's other younger brother Vorobev also raised their hands.

Cheng Mo glanced at Nicholas, and immediately shouted loudly: "Eleven more needed...."

Then Cheng Mo said in English again that he needed someone to be a chess piece, and quietly kicked Evans, Evans was not as decisive as Nicholas, he hesitated for a moment, and glanced at Mrs. Evans, but Mrs. Evans was also very dispossessed, and she couldn't give Evans an idea at all.

Cheng Mo had no choice but to kick Evans secretly, and Evans raised his hand and whispered, "I.... I ....."

Cheng Mo also ignored Evans, and said loudly and eagerly: "Now there are only eight left, only eight left........."

In fact, Cheng Mo knew that the chances of these eight people surviving were very small, because they could only become the "soldiers" with the highest death rate in the chess pieces, Cheng Mo had no guilt about this, it was better to have a chance than no chance, anyway, they were going to die.

Cheng Mo didn't look too much, he randomly selected eight of the people who raised their hands, and then said to the clown Sith: "I have already gathered sixteen chess pieces...."

The clown Sith watched Cheng Mo complete his chess piece collection, and he was also insightful of his small movements, he raised his thumbs up to Cheng Mo, "You are much smarter than I thought..... You and your pieces can come to the front, hopefully you can defeat me, and then we will have a chance to play the game..... Now it's time for me to choose the pieces!"

"That's terrible! I don't speak Russian to turn around, and I also need sixteen people who volunteer to be pawns, and of course my chess skills are not good, but.... It doesn't matter if I lose, except for the child who was eaten by this child, the rest of the people can also survive....." After a pause, the clown Sith shrugged his shoulders and said, "Is anyone willing to bet on the difference between my chess level and this child?" or is this child willing to let go of water..... Give you more chances to survive....."

There was a dreary atmosphere in the air, everyone was breathing heavily, those who understood were hesitating, those who didn't understand were asking those who understood what they meant, but no one opened their mouths to explain to them, which made the atmosphere in the carriage scorching.

Seeing that no one had raised his hand, the clown Sith waved his right hand, "I definitely won't force everyone to send to death, so is anyone willing to be my pawn?" He pointed at Cheng Mo and said, "If there is no one, I will let this kid and his fifteen chess pieces leave....."

At this time, everyone's hearts were raised to their throats, whether it was those who were chosen by Cheng Mo or those who were not chosen.

Finally, some people were unwilling to watch the others leave like this, and raised their hands, and then one by one people raised their hands, some people who couldn't understand English, and didn't know what was going on, but they also raised their hands.

"Oh! Oh, so many people, it's really embarrassing to be optimistic about me.... Then I'll try my best to fight for everyone a chance to survive!" said the Clown's Sith happily when he saw so many people raising his hand, "But there are so many of you, how can I choose? I only need sixteen people..... Well, you rehearse and go head-to-head with the nearest person, rock-paper-scissors, or whatever, until you're left with sixteen people.....

After the clown announced, there was a mess in the carriage, more than 100 people were crowded in the carriage, more than 30 people raised their hands, each found someone closer to him, discussed what to compare, someone directly chose rock-paper-scissors, and quickly decided the winner, as the first pair of dust settled, someone raised his hand and said: "I won!"

The clown glanced in that direction and said, "Congratulations, you're coming to the front!" The other loser shriveled down like a deflated inflatable doll, and then the cries rang out again, and the one who won was so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground.....

Seeing this situation, the situation became even more chaotic, there was a man who lost rock-paper-scissors, seeing that the thin opponent was about to raise his hand and say that he had won, he strangled the opponent's neck in a hurry, and then strangled the opponent alive, and then raised his hand sweatily and said: "I won....."

Sith the Clown didn't blame the other party for his treachery at all, "Congratulations! So what was originally just a game to decide the winner was now a force to decide the winner, and brutal and bloody fights took place in all corners of the carriage, screaming everywhere.

At this time, Cheng Mo, Xie Minyun and his chess pieces had already walked to the junction of carriage 13 and carriage 14, lined up along the window, and Cheng Mo held Xie Minyun's hand and stood at the front.

Xie Minyun frowned as she looked at the cruel scene that happened in the corridor, she looked at the mask face of the clown Sith, bit her lip, and asked with some anger, "Is it interesting for you to torture others like this?"
