absurd deduction game

Chapter 29 I climbed over the wall and climbed the window in the village
The three simply buried the body and returned from the mountain. It was only in the morning, and there was still a long time before the funeral of Zhou Yongsheng that was discussed in the village.

In fact, the game has progressed to now, and the small group between the players has become obvious. Except for the missing Carlos and the dead Ju Lan, the two brothers of the Xu family have basically zero communication with Yu Xing and the others, and I don’t know if they have found anything. clue.

I entered the village at dusk last night, and then they separated after having dinner. I haven't integrated the information until now. This seems a bit stupid to Yu Xing. This group of people is too rigid and only works with familiar and trusted people. , did not take advantage of the number of people, like a mess of sand.

That's why Carlos has a sense of information, but this person still doesn't know where to hide and fiddle with something.

He thinks... Carlos must be fine, this blue-haired magician has something to look at.

In a word, having said so much, it is because the deducers in this game are inexperienced. Otherwise, even people who have conflicts with each other will measure their proportions to exchange information, because deducing the truth and living is an impossible thing to shake. Same target.

At the moment, under the eyes of some villagers who started to become strange, Yu Xing put forward a suggestion to Xiao Xuechen and Wei Fan——

It's still early, and I'm afraid the key point of the game is tonight. They should use this blank time to inquire about all aspects of Guanjia Village.

Separate inquiries, and then gather, integrate and analyze the information clues.

Xiao Xuechen and Wei Fan have no objection. It's okay to split up. They are not in a horror movie. They are different from the tragic protagonist of a horror movie. .

Although the houses in this small village are dilapidated, the overall layout is quite square. After acting alone, Yu Xing quietly climbed over the wall and entered several courtyards. He found that almost every house had one or two vacancies. use.

In addition, he also paid special attention to whether these villagers had coffins in their homes. After all, if there was only one coffin in the ancestral hall in the coffin village, it would be too embarrassing.

He is an eye-catching outsider, and it took him a lot of effort to inquire about various things without being noticed.

I didn't eat lunch at noon, and what happened last night, Xiao Xuechen, the others and the Xu family brothers said that they had no appetite and did not go to the village chief's house to eat. Even Yu Xing, who seemed to have a great appetite from beginning to end, directly said that he didn't want to. ate.

In the afternoon, he leaned against a wall and took a breath. The originally snow-white shirt was smeared in action, and there was ash left over the wall on his palms.

Basically, the inquiries are over... There is really something that makes him feel that something is wrong, and it broadens his speculation.

For example, these villagers do not visit each other at all. If they want to chat together, they will go to the open space outside the house. It is like every house has strict rules, and the number of people cannot be large. Combined with the rules and constraints of their deducers at night, He vaguely felt that this was a very important clue.

For another example, the rickety old man they met when they first entered the village, Yu Xing observed almost every house and never saw it again.

The old man seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, and disappeared out of nowhere.

There is also the most unscientific point - there is no farmland in this village, and no one takes the position of buying out of the village. The villagers eat three meals a day. Where do the meat and vegetables come from?
And... there is no cemetery, where are the people who died in the village over the years buried?
The appointment time with Xiao Xuechen and Wei Fan was four o'clock. Just after three o'clock, Yu Xing ran to Ju Lan's room.

He stepped in through the window and calmly surveyed the room.

Ju Lan's backpack was placed in the corner of the room. Two wooden beds were placed side by side across the aisle. One of the beds had obvious signs of sleeping, and the other...

The quilt was lifted, and there was a small paper figure in the center of the bed.

Yu Xing couldn't help raising his eyebrows. This was obviously put here on purpose by Carlos. This magician always seems to have a small paper figure in his hand, which is very interesting.

He walked over, and from the traces on the scene, he could infer that after Ju Lan woke up at night, he got off his bed and was shocked to realize that his companion was missing. He lifted Carlos' quilt and found the paper figurine, and then walked all the way to the door.

She must have been persuaded by something to open the door... and then things went in the worst direction.

After a brief speculation, Yu Xing ruled out that Carlos had a different mission from theirs and deliberately harmed others.

Carlos is a human and not a ghost, he is very sure of this, so if Carlos wants to kill Ju Lan, he doesn't need to be so troublesome at all.

He turned his attention to the paper figurine again, picked it up and looked at it.

Carlos' paper figures are all three-dimensional and belong to paper figures, not paper figures.

The paper figurine is only the size of a palm. The strange thing is that the original pure white paper figurine is still bloodstained at this moment, more than half of the head is missing, and there are several cracks on the body.

"This scar... the same as Ju Lan. Could it be a paper figurine stand-in who has endured the curse of the night rules for Carlos?" Yu Xing narrowed his eyes, and at this moment, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

[The traces of the sacrifice are found, and the judgment is in progress]

[Your level is lower than the other party, information acquisition failed]

"Ah, this is a sacrifice?" Although he had already guessed it, he was still interested when he heard the confirmation from the system.

Whether it was Zhao Yijiu's knife before or Carlos' paper figurine now, they are somewhat attractive to Yu Xing.

Because... he also has an invisible and intangible sacrifice on his body, and he vaguely knows what it is, so he needs to touch the sacrifice a lot to study things that he could not touch before.

Yu Xing pinched the little paper figurine who seemed to be dead, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "Well... No, this shouldn't be a sacrifice, it's just a form of manifestation of the power of sacrifice, and it's still a residue."

When Carlos came to exchange information last night, in order to "perform magic", a paper figurine's head was opened on the spot, so there was more than one paper figurine on Carlos.

The real sacrifice was probably carried by Carlos, and the bed was just one of the ways to use it.

Seeing that there was not even Carlos' backpack in the house, he must have taken the bag with him when he left.

Yu Xing: "Could it be that Carlos left Guanjia Village and ran to the town on the other side of the mountain?"

This is a new idea. The mission only requires them to attend the funeral, and it does not say whether they can leave before the funeral.

In fact, there was no rule that they had to stay in Guanjia Village until the funeral, so they could leave at any time, as long as they came back before the funeral.

It was the first time for Yu Xing to play this kind of deduction game.

Learned, he opened new doors!
In the future deduction games... His ideas will definitely diverge even more!
Hope the ghost is ok.

These were the discoveries in Ju Lan's room. After coming out, Yu Xing turned another corner and came to the house where the brothers of the Xu family lived. The family's yard was a little smaller than that of the village head's house, but there was only one old lady who lived there, so the rest Of the two empty rooms, one was given to Xu Yuan and Xu Hong, and the other was given to Wei Fan.

According to Wei Fan, the two brothers are the ultimate otaku, staying in the room all the time.

Sitting still can only be done by stupid people, which is obviously inconsistent with the deducers who have to use their brains in every deduction game. Otherwise, these people will never live now.

So the Xu brothers must have a way to obtain information.

Instead of jumping over the wall and crossing the window this time, he sorted out his clothes and knocked on the door of the old lady's house.

After more than 20 seconds.

"Squeak-"

The age of the door is obviously not short, and it makes a sharp sound. A short old lady is holding the door in one hand and leaning on a cane in the other hand, and her wrinkled face can't be seen.

She asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"

This old lady has inconvenient legs and feet, Yu Xing has never seen her outside, and other villagers will not come in. That is to say, this old lady is in the stage of blocked information, except for the three outsiders who came in after the village chief knocked on the door last night. Other than that, she shouldn't know anything.

"Hello, mother-in-law, I'm here to play with the people who live in your house." Yu Xing blinked obediently without saying his name.

"Guests from other places... come in." The old lady staggered out of the way, and Yu Xing walked in easily.

This yard is really dilapidated, some of the weeds have grown very tall, but the old lady has difficulty moving and cannot clean up.

Yu Xing thanked the old lady and walked to the Xu brothers' room.

The door of the room was tightly closed, and the sound of the conversation could be vaguely heard from the room with almost no sound insulation. Unfortunately, the two were probably experienced, so they could only hear the sound, and the content of the conversation was completely incomprehensible.

He raised his hand and knocked on the door twice.

"Who?"

"I'm San."

It was Xu Hong in black who opened the door. He glanced at Yu Xing's back with vigilant eyes, and then asked, "So it's you, is there something wrong?"

"Before you said that this village is evil, but now I believe it." Starting with a logical connection of characters, Yu Xing spread his hands innocently, "I saw some terrible things last night, Ju Lan also died today, I think After thinking about it, you two Feng Shui masters must know what's going on? Hey..."

"I'm just a painter with little skill, so I want to communicate with you. I wonder if the two of you can save me?"

Xu Hong was still hesitating, but Xu Yuan in the room had already understood what he meant and said loudly, "Brother, let him in."

"Come in." Xu Hong made an invitation after hearing the words.

Yu Xing smiled gratefully and stepped into the dimly lit room.

After entering, he quickly surveyed the room calmly.The sun was shining brightly at the moment, but the Xu brothers covered the window with a gorgeous piece of cloth, making it difficult for the light to penetrate.

Xu Yuan was sitting cross-legged on a hardwood bed, with a piece of parchment in front of him, and a pile of odd odd objects next to him. The things of the family village, but it's useless for you people to know, it's better to leave quickly."

This character's logic is also good... Yu Xing glanced at the content on the parchment, it seemed to be a hand-painted map, surrounded by mountains, with dense grids in the middle.

Strangely, after he got close to the parchment, the gloomy feeling reappeared, but it was weaker than the candlestick in the village chief's house, which did not have a significant impact on him.

Yu Xing suppressed the discomfort, took one more look, and then smiled shyly: "I was ignorant before, and I promised the village chief to stay and attend the funeral. If you want to leave halfway, the ghost knows what will happen, two big brothers, I know Feng Shui is a On the one hand, you are experts, some secrets are not humane to the outside world, but... life is at stake, I also have some additional information that may be exchanged with you."

Waiting for this sentence.

Xu Yuan glanced at his brother, then nodded: "In that case, that's fine."

……

Half an hour later, Yu Xing left the room of the Xu brothers.

He saw the lonely old lady sitting in the courtyard, thought about it, and walked over with a smile.

The crutches in the old lady's hand were knocking one after another, and she looked up at the sky above the yard, stunned.

"Old lady, are you alone?" Yu Xing sat directly opposite the old lady and chatted regardless of whether the old lady agreed or not, "What are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at... the outside world." The old lady didn't lower her head, she was still fascinated.

The sly look in Yu Xing's eyes flashed, and he tentatively said: "If you want to go out for a walk, I can help you."

"No, it's not outside, but... the outside world." The old lady showed a sad look. In fact, she was the only old man Yu Xing saw in this village except the old man at the entrance of the village.

"What is the outside world? You mean...outside the mountains?"

"Yeah... I used to go out when I was young." The nostalgia in the old lady's eyes grew stronger and stronger. Perhaps it was because she had not spoken to her for too long, and her chatterbox was opened by Yu Xing without much effort.

"Everyone in our village used to work hard outside, some went to school, some worked." The old lady's articulation was clear, and it was not difficult to recognize when she spoke.

"But, in the end, we will all be pulled back, and then, stay in the village forever..."

Yu Xing listened and sneered inwardly: Oh, is it the same as Zhou Yongsheng?

He went to school well, and when he came back, he was strangled to death.

He wanted to ask the old lady why she came back, but the old lady didn't seem to know much about this question, and she didn't say anything after going around for a long time.

So Yu Xing changed the question again: "Mother-in-law, do you know an old man in the village? I saw him at the entrance of the village when my friends and I came. He also stood on crutches and looked very old."

"Old man?" The old lady wondered, "I should be the last old man in this village. Oh, did you see it by the locust tree?"

Yu Xing nodded: "That's right."

"He...he was the last village chief. After Zhou Facai came back from the town, he buried him under the locust tree. He...he died a long time ago!"
