absurd deduction game.

Chapter 198 Alice Hell (31) - Zeng Lai
The gambler is a well-known righteous line, even if not everyone is well-known in the group of deducers, but it is still a very distinctive person to mention.

The reason why the Zhengdao line is called the righteous way is precisely because of the deep moral traces imprinted on the way and style.

Deducers of the righteous path line have always been popular. In the righteous group, everyone is glad to have a trustworthy companion. In the alienated group, everyone welcomes someone who can take the normal line of deduction. In the depraved group... The deducers of the fallen line don't mind one more guy who is more convenient to use.

But this is not to say that people with the right path are good people who don’t know how to adapt, who sacrifice themselves to help others—deductors who can live to the differentiation level are not so stupid.

The so-called righteous way is just a group that chooses to maintain order and goodwill after getting used to deduction and evil in reality.

There are people like Ren Yi who are serious and a bit old-fashioned, and people like Zeng Lai who are detached and delicate, and there are also extreme people who are "cruel and ruthless" and only want justice in their hearts. There will be no hidden sin.

The deduction of Alice Hell happened to be a special deduction aimed at the evil in the hearts of "people". This made Zeng Lai, who is good at plotting, lose the room to display his expertise. Instead, he encountered something he didn't want to encounter.

cryr.

The reddish light reflected on the door leaf surrounded by rose bushes, staining the door with a corrupt and dangerous color.

The cryr appeared here for some reason, and with the fierce sound of thump, thump, thump, thump, the entire door was trembling.

"Help me!!" The shrill cry pierced through the eardrums, causing the blood vessels on Zeng Lai's forehead to throb faintly.

The expression on his face gradually disappeared, impatience, annoyance, and tension all disappeared, and the light fell on him, making the fine wounds on his wheat-colored skin full of destruction.

There is a peephole on the door.

Zeng Lai sighed silently and looked into the cat's eyes.

On the other side of the door, a female ghost covered in blood and with half of her head off opened her mouth with all her might, letting out howls of despair one after another.

Her body was distorted, and bones were dislocated in several joints. With a casual glance, one could see that the elbow skin of the crying man's right arm was pierced by a piece of milky white bone.

There were still stitches on the cryr's lips, but she ignored the pain of her lips being torn, and forcefully stretched the stitches, creating a chance to open her mouth.

This is Zeng Lai's corresponding ghost. His current situation can be said to be very dangerous.

Because the crying person is obviously not the type of direct attack, just like her, she looks like she will fall to the ground at any time, it is not too much to say that she can be knocked down by Zeng Lai.She will only appear on the other side of the door, and the conditions for killing people are also based on the choice of the deducer by the door.

"I know you're outside...help me, please?" The cryr seemed to know that someone was looking at her through the cat's eyes this time. He raised his face and looked at Zeng Lai through the glass mirror. She could only see the black Xiaodong, two lines of blood and tears were left from the damaged eye sockets, and there was a faint pleading in his voice, "I really can't take it anymore...I don't want to die...I don't want to..."

Zeng Lai's breathing was stagnant. He clearly knew that this was the magical transformation and twisted power that existed in Alice's Castle, but he still couldn't help the pain in his heart, feeling stuffy, as if being pinched by someone.

He gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound, resisting not to respond.

This is really a dead end.

He still remembered what the tour guide nun said, when he encountered his corresponding ghost, he could only run away, even if he got the corresponding props.

Therefore, other players may be able to give the correct response to the cryr, but he cannot. Whether he responds or responds, opens the door or does not open the door, whatever he chooses is wrong.

"Ahhh!!! Help me!!!" The girl's hoarse and cracked voice scraped Zeng Lai's eardrums like a knife, piercing one hole after another in his mind. He opened his mouth and took a step back .

"Are you leaving? Wait, you are leaving me and leaving, aren't you!!" The cryer's voice suddenly became vicious, and he paused, knowing that he could not return the same way now.

Because, this is no longer a weak version of the cryr with his mouth sealed. When he is approached by a "full body" cryr who can open his mouth, leaving is also a choice for him—a wrong choice .

Wrong choice means death.

Zeng Lai closed his eyes, he didn't believe that a struggle-level deduction could push him to the point where there was nothing he could do.

There must be something that has been overlooked, there must be a way to survive against your own ghosts.

"You didn't go...you didn't go, why didn't you open the door!? Why didn't you save me!? You want to kill me too, right!" The cries became more and more fierce, obviously, her patience was exhausted Almost exhausted.

Zeng Lai was silent for a moment, and a piece of talisman paper appeared in his hand.

A piece of yellow talisman paper was "slapped" on his forehead by him, and it started to burn.

The fire flickered, and the burning power did not cause any harm to Zeng Lai, the user, but only brought a little heat.

He was like a zombie, his body became a little stiff.

[Sacrifice: Corpse Control Gambling]

[Form: A piece of yellow talisman paper in people's minds, the kind that is pasted on the forehead of a jumping zombie wearing an official uniform of the Qing Dynasty]

[The sacrifice has been fused with the "Persona Gambler", and the fusion ability is: ① Stick it on the forehead of a zombie ghost, and the talisman paper will burn, which can cause a confinement effect. The specific time is determined by the difficulty of the deduction and the target level. ②Paste it on your forehead, and the talisman paper will burn, which can reduce the hostility of any kind of ghosts, and reduce their hostility to infinitely close to zero.During this period, you will be stiff and fragile, your movements will be limited, your thinking will be slack, and you will be unable to resist any human attacks on you, and you will not be able to use other sacrifices.When the yellow talisman is burned out, the ghost's hatred towards you will be doubled.The combustion process is irreversible and cannot be stopped. 】

[Description: I don’t know which ghost movie its image comes from, but it’s a product of gamblers’ lack of imagination.This piece of talisman paper is weak or powerful, whether it is alive or dead, it all depends on the balance of the user. 】

[Note: What is the use of such talisman paper?You don't think people are safer than ghosts, hahaha... What a strange idea, when you can't resist, do you think other people will help you?Do not!They will give you a knife! 】

This is the first time Zeng Lai has used the ability of this sacrifice②, the reason is just like the system commentary said, he dare not use it in front of others in any deduction.

As long as others know that this sacrifice of his will cause him to fall into an irreversible rigidity, someone with a heart will definitely take advantage of this and give him a merciless backstab... After all, he has offended many people after so long.

Therefore, only when no one is watching like now, can he use [Corpse Control Gambling] to buy himself a certain amount of time to survive.

In this case, the cries and knocks on the other side of the door were weakened. The cry seemed to be hesitating, and the cries gradually became smaller, but she did not leave, and waited where she was, as if she did not intend to give up easily. .

The burning speed of the yellow talisman is very slow. According to this speed, it can burn for about half an hour.

Half an hour... Zeng Lai exhaled lightly, leaned his back against the door stiffly, and slowly slid down to sit on the ground.

Speaking of it, a sacrifice that can bring half an hour of ghost safety time to the user will definitely make people envious and jealous.But because of its negative effects, Zeng Lai had to face half an hour of freezing time, as long as someone stabbed him at this time, he would die.

Although no one was around today, the bad news still came out—the Cryer did not leave directly like many ghosts that would switch targets when their hostility weakened, but waited behind the door.

Half an hour later, if he still hasn't come up with a feasible solution, he still has to face his ghost and meet the fate of being killed.

At this time, he had a little hope that Yu Xing would come to him and find a way to help him avoid this dead end.

Although this is just a ridiculous expectation, it is unlikely to happen—after all, even he himself doesn't know where this place is, how could Yu Xing find him within 40 minutes after he fell?

"Oh, it's really unlucky... My luck isn't that bad, is it because I was unknowingly overwhelmed? Does that guy think I don't know that he is the younger brother of the woman Ren Yi killed a while ago?" Action Restricted, Zeng Lai leaned against the door, laughing silently.

The figure of a thin young man wearing black-rimmed glasses suddenly appeared in his memory. The young man's black hair was unkempt and messy all the year round, and his cold eyes were often filled with "strategies", "information", "research", etc. vocabulary.

"Ren Yi, Ren Yi, you don't know, I'm going to be implicated to death by you today...Damn it, it might be the beginning of bad luck for me to be your brother."

Although he was nagging in his heart, Zeng Lai's eyes were calm, thinking of the paralyzed face with which he had the best relationship in the guild, even an inappropriate smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

If he hadn't reminded him, his brother probably wouldn't shave for a long time. He would go to the barber shop to get his hair done when he realized that his vision was blocked. He stayed up all night for several days to submit the analysis report, and finally woke up hungry when he fell asleep.

Zeng Lai's thinking has been affected by the [Corpse Control Gambling], a little slack, and somehow spread to other people.He looked at the flames from the yellow talisman, the bright red roses blooming around behind the flames, and the pieces of meat strung together by the roses, and felt pain from the small wounds all over his body.He could still hear the occasional howls of the wailer, which was very noisy.

He murmured silently: "If I die here, you poisonous and unreasonable guy, you will really have no friends."

Two seconds later, the muscular-looking young man shook his head violently, which was a movement he could only do in a stiff state with all his strength: "Bah! Why are you making it like saying your last words... What kind of flag to set for yourself, what a fool."

Zeng Lai scolded himself very decisively.

He bit his tongue, not willing to bite the blood, and stopped after feeling that the pain made him concentrate.

"There is still half an hour... I must find the loopholes, and the death node of the struggle-level deduction will not be irreversible!"

"Isn't that what gambling is for? I bet I can survive."

"That heartless boy Ren Yi won't miss me just because I'm dead."

"Damn mentally retarded, what are you thinking about right now? Wouldn't it be better for me to personally supervise him after I go out? It must be assumed that he has no friends... Oh no, he lost his concentration again."

The influence of lax thinking was very obvious, and Zeng Lai took a while to recover to a state where he could think.

The burning flame of the yellow talisman paper was a bit dazzling, so he simply closed his eyes, began to abandon the interference, and tried hard to remember that the cryr would become the reason for his "past sins".

Memories surged, and Zeng Lai quickly realized that the cryer was not entirely his sin, but... his inner demon.

……

Zeng Lai is not very old now, and five or six years ago he was an underage ordinary high school student.

He doesn't study hard, and every day in class, he secretly plays games with his classmates under the crotch of the table, and often forms cross-class teams with the brothers in the next class.

He doesn't like to study, but he has a smart mind. He can barely make it to the top ten in the class without studying much. He is also good at sports. He is the hope of the whole class in the sports meeting. Whether it is among teachers or students, his popularity is not guaranteed.

At that time, he fought wits with the class teacher every day, made appointments with classmates to play basketball after school, and was laughed at by other brothers because of receiving mineral water and confessions from female classmates on the playground. All the fun.

This kind of life, although there is pressure from the college entrance examination, is calm and youthful.

until a Friday night.

That day, he wanted to take advantage of the weekend to go home, because it was winter and it got dark early, even if there was no evening study on Friday, it was already dark when he left school.

The school was already remote, almost a suburban area. Since he stayed on duty for more than half an hour, there were not many people on the way to the bus station when he came out, only a school girl he had met several times followed behind him.

I have met him a few times, because Zeng Lai can always see this school girl every time I go home on weekends, but they haven't spoken to each other, let alone acquaintances, they only stay at the level of familiarity - in fact, only He thinks so alone.

The junior girl confessed to him on the unmanned platform.

Zeng Lai really didn't have any plans to fall in love early. First, he was not interested. Second, he took relationships very seriously and didn't want to casually start a relationship initiated by others.He refused as usual. He thought it would be the same as usual, and there would be no follow-up after the rejection. As a result, the junior girl may have a weak heart, so she cried on the spot. She didn't even take the bus that arrived at the stop, and ran not far away with her schoolbag on her back. Dark alley.

The street lights in the alley have been in disrepair for a long time, and there has been no lighting for nearly a month. Zeng Lai is worried that the girls will be stimulated and will be in danger at night-in fact, there are always related rumors recently, and many students have heard of them.

So he followed, intending to persuade the person first, so that the other person can go home safely.

But... When he ran into the alley, he found that no one was there.

It stands to reason that the girl has small arms and legs, so it's not difficult to chase after her, but he didn't delay for long, so why did he lose his target?
His keen instincts made him hold his breath until he heard a call for help, his pupils shrank, and while running to the call for help, he sent a message and located it to the deskmate who stayed at the school, so that the deskmate could not receive it after 5 minutes Report him to the police.

　What's everyone's impression of Zeng Lai∠("∠)＿ Let me know whether Kangkang is a knife or...
