absurd deduction game

Chapter 41 The Witch's Time Cabin

On the empty field, three people gathered around a claw machine, watching the movements of the metal claws attentively.

Before Wang Jue's arrival, Zhao Yijiu tried two more times without success, so Wang Jue became the hope of the whole village.

"Amazing!" Yu Xing watched the penultimate coin being thrown in, Wang Jue manipulated the button with ease, grabbed a human head doll and sent it to the exit.

The arrival of Wang Jue gave life to the stagnant amusement project. There were already two heads in the passage below, and they were picked up by Yu Xing and placed on the top of the doll machine.

Now catching the third one.

"It's not difficult at all, it's firmly fixed, and it's not easy to shake it down. It's much easier to grasp than the doll machine outside." Wang Jue thought in pieces, unable to imagine what Yu Xing and Zhao Yijiu did. When five coins couldn't hold a head, and Zhao Yijiu didn't say a word, Yu Xing was right next to him, "Mmmm".

Soon, the third person's head, who looked old, was clipped out.

"Fortunate to have you, otherwise this project would have been scrapped by us." Yu Xing sighed.

"Hey, it's alright." Wang Jue took out the third head from the passage and looked left and right at the wrinkles on his face, "Where's the clue?"

The sign said that three heads could get the clues, but it didn't mention where the clues were. Yu Xing spread out his hands and touched the heads on the top of the plane at will, but he didn't expect to touch it.

He raised his brows and turned his head to see that the two heads he had placed before had disappeared—what about my human heads?
Where are these two big heads that I put here?
Without giving him a chance to think about it, Yu Xing felt a chill in his neck, something fluffy and densely entangled.

He reached out to touch it, and the thing around his neck immediately wrapped tightly, causing a sense of suffocation.

It's hair!
In addition to his hair, there seemed to be something pressing against the back of his neck, giggling.

That should be the face.

The movements of the two heads were really silent, and Yu Xing was so close to the heads that he didn't hear them disappear.

His eyes were cold, and he took time to look at the other two in the tighter and tighter hair.

The three heads were evenly distributed. One of them rolled around on the ground, and then bounced like a ball. Every time he borrowed force on the ground, it would leave a few pieces of minced meat in place, which was very disgusting.

Flicking and flicking, Zhao Yijiu's knife was inserted into the Tianling cover, and half of the machine collided with the metal of the knife, making a faint buzzing sound.

"Wow!" Before Wang Jue could see what had happened, the head in his hand suddenly opened his eyes, opened his bloody mouth, and bit his wrist.

He was so close, he could clearly see the bloody carrion in the mouth of the human head, and the teeth that were especially sharp for some reason.

With this mouthful, his hand will be ruined!

At the moment, Wang Jue didn't care about anything, a yellow talisman appeared out of thin air on his fingertips, and quickly stuck it on the mouth of the human head.

After the talisman paper touched the human head, a cold air flow erupted, and the human head opened its mouth in pain, and the invisible sharp blades cut out the openings. scratches.

Fortunately, after Wang Jue was prepared, the human head couldn't bite him for a while.

Seeing that all three were attacked, the doll with the doll of Alice's head finally spoke: "The clue is in the mouth of one of the heads."

Wang Jue reacted in an instant, and looked at Huang Fuzheng's screams in a complicated mood, but in fact there was nothing at all about the head: only one of the heads was in the mouth, it must not be mine?
He didn't want to see that mouth more clearly.

"Not here with me." Zhao Yijiu strung the head like a skewer, opened the mouth of the head and said solemnly.

The clue could only be in the mouth of the long-haired man who was entangled in Yu Xing.

The two looked at Yu Xing, who was still wrapped around his neck by his hair and seemed to be out of breath.

Wang Jue looked at Yu Xing as a very good young man, with a cheerful personality and good manners. At this moment, his face was pale, as if there was no blood under his skin, and he couldn't help thinking to help: "You can try to break it! No! If so, I-"

"Yes." Yu Xing heard it, raised his hand and pulled his hair out, and immediately regained his ability to breathe, "I just want to see how the hair volume is, after wrapping it for a long time, it's just a small bundle, and I can't even cover my nose and mouth. Live, it's bald!"

Wang Jue: "..."

Zhao Yijiu: "..."

Yu Xing was also a thief, the head was behind him and the hair was divided into two bundles to strangle him, so he grabbed one bundle with each hand and pulled it out, so hard that he almost didn't pull off the head's hair and scalp together.

The human head stopped giggling for a long time, and with the severe pain in the scalp, it howled in pain.

Sounds miserable.

"This head is so powerful, how could you pull it off with your bare hands?" After a brief silence, Wang Jue suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Yeah, you're stronger than I thought." Zhao Yijiu followed suit, with vigilance flashing in his eyes, "Although it's the first time we've played the game together, but I didn't see you at all when I was working. On the one hand. You are very good at hiding."

Wang Jue looked at the two of them and thought a little.

The two are said to be colleagues in reality, but listening to this, Zhao Yijiu doesn't trust Yu Xing very much?That is to say, in Zhao Yijiu's heart, Yu Xing has the possibility of a murderer?

He observed Yu Xing and found that the other party paused when he heard Zhao Yijiu's words, the expression on his face seemed to be embarrassed for a moment, and was immediately covered up: "Ahahaha, no, which deducer is not good at hiding. what."

"Maybe." Zhao Yijiu glanced at Yu Xing coldly, and his eyes fell on the head of the person Yu Xing was holding, "Take the clue."

Yu Xing stopped talking nonsense and handed over his head.

The long-haired man's head was dying, and his eyes were rolling. Zhao Yijiu took it, opened the man's mouth forcefully, and saw the white paper after the two rows of flat teeth.

He pulled out the paper in disgust, and saw a sentence on the paper: "The detective has never traveled with the murderer so far."

After reading, he showed the paper to the other two, and then put the paper back into the head's mouth in disgust.

As soon as the hand was loosened, the head fled as if it were fleeing, and flew back into the doll machine from the passage, filling the vacancy properly.

This……

What kind of clue is this?

After Zhao Yijiu read out the clue, Wang Jue's expression cracked a bit.

But this clue... seems to be helpful for reasoning.

"Wang Jue, did you act with Xie Ze before? Why did you come to us all of a sudden?" Yu Xing remembered and asked curiously.

"Xie Ze and I were playing on the merry-go-round just now, and then Xie Ze suddenly said that he didn't worry about the two of them walking together, that is, he didn't worry about me - he happened to see the couple on the Ferris wheel, and he was going to find them there." Wang Jue said depressedly, "I originally followed, but for the next project they planned to play the big swivel chair with a limit of three people, so they threw me away. Ling Heng told me that they saw you two on the Ferris wheel. Doll machine area, let me come to you."

It turned out to be the case.

Yu Xing nodded thoughtfully.

The murderer will inevitably approach other people to find which one is more like the deceased. The detective can contact the deceased to protect the deceased, or stay away from the deceased, so that the murderer can't figure out who the deceased is.

Everyone is secretly observing others, and in addition to the obvious clues, everyone's action intentions and behaviors are enough to reveal a lot.

The three of them had their own ideas and walked towards the next project. The sign in the doll machine area was replaced by the words [This project is temporarily closed].

……

I wanted to play haunted house.

But Wang Jue howled and said that he was afraid of ghosts and didn't want to be frightened by ghosts in non-spiritual deduction games, so he didn't want to enter the haunted house.

So Yu Xing gave full play to his few human brilliance, patted Wang Jue on the shoulder very tolerantly and sympathetically, and changed his goal from the haunted house to other indoor projects.

After walking for a long time, they finally found a rather peculiar facility in the corner of the park. It was a small-looking wooden house with gears all over the walls, and a steam pipe was sticking out from somewhere, whistling white. gas.

Alice's head was made into a sign and hung on the door, with the word "Witch's Time Cabin" written in Gothic font below.

When the door was opened, the bell sounded ethereally, Yu Xing's footsteps slowed for a moment, and he looked around in amazement.

This place...is special.

Especially when the three of them came in, they all fell silent.

As soon as you enter the house, you can feel the difference between this place and other places. It is also decorated in steampunk style, but there is a more old-fashioned feeling visible to the naked eye than other places.

The overall tone here is a hazy moon-gold color, and under the illumination of the light, a few strands of gray appear inexplicably in gentleness.

Like time that should have moved forward normally... rusted.

Time is an abstract concept, but Yu Xing had this idea in an instant.

In his eyes, time is...

It's a very frustrating thing.

He recovered his thoughts from the footsteps of Zhao Yijiu and Wang Jue, and continued to look at it.

The hall is covered with a dark gold carpet, and in addition to the brown hardwood sofa and coffee table, there is also a display stand.

The display stand is full of exquisite objects of various eras, including the Eiffel Tower in Paris and London's Big Ben, as well as notebooks that can be used as gifts, as well as pen holders decorated with pinions and models of Gothic castles...

Hundreds of items are gorgeously piled up, and he can only shout out most of them, and there are some things on this table that he has never even seen before.

I picked up a quill at random. The weight of the pen was unexpected and heavy, and I didn't know what material it was made of.

Around the hall, there were thick white lines, with several photos held by iron clips, including portraits, scenes, vague blocks of unknown meaning, and uncomfortable horror images.

Looking at these photos, Yu Xing suddenly felt familiar.

He put down his quill and stopped in front of a khaki-hued photo of a dilapidated wooden boat washed up in the mud, with the wooden oars leaning against the hull.

Through the small wooden boat, you can vaguely see the village not far away.

"So familiar..." Yu Xing murmured, as if feeling something, carefully observing these photos.

Everything in the photo seems to be what he has experienced... It should be.

"What are you staring at a tree for?" Wang Jue leaned over and pointed to the photo of the small wooden boat, "By the way, this big willow tree looks familiar to me, why can't I remember it."

Tree?
Yu Xing looked at the small wooden boat, and then at Wang Jue.

There should be no problem with Wang Jue's mind.

So, it means that what I see is different from what Wang Jue sees in the same photo.

He reacted instantly, these photos should be generated according to each person's different memories.

Suddenly, Yu Xing saw a touch of red in the corner of his eyes.

His face suddenly turned gloomy, and he left Wang Jue, who was still sighing, and walked towards the photo where the red smear was.

This photo is old and has started to turn yellow.

In the photo, a handsome man dressed in a light-colored robe and jacket is sitting on a wooden chair with intricate patterns. His natural smiling eyes look at Yu Xing outside the photo with indescribable penetrating power.

On the man's left ear is a very distinctive earring, and a long fringe hangs under the slender colored glass, and the red is the color of the colored glass and the fringe itself.

It's a weird blood color.

This man has a beauty that transcends gender. Yu Xing stared at him calmly, but his fingers were clenched unconsciously, almost sinking into the flesh.

"Lingren..." He muttered silently, and the light smile on the man's face seemed to contain a hint of mockery.

Yu Xing did not expect that this so-called time cabin could actually engrave his memories in these photos.

These photos bring out many of his deliberate burial experiences, especially blood feuds.

"welcome."

Suddenly, the door on the inside of the hall was opened, and there was a greeting from a cold and smooth voice like a clear spring, and then a woman with long hair walked out.

All three in the hall returned to God.

Yu Xing retracted his gaze from the photo, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and looked at the owner of this room.

Unexpectedly, here you can see a normal human-like NPC.

The woman was wearing a black robe and stepped barefoot on the dark golden carpet, her fair feet were beautiful and delicate.

Her face is even more stunning. She is completely plain, without makeup, but she is more beautiful than any woman Yu Xing has ever seen, especially those eyes that glow with dark golden light. Let people fall into obsolescence and fall into the whirlpool of time.

For some reason, the woman's gaze stayed on Yu Xing for a long time. The two looked at each other, and both saw indifference in each other's eyes.

"Hello!" Wang Jue exclaimed, his eyes widened, "May I ask who you are!?"

This woman's style is wrong.

If you use the Cthulhu running group as an analogy, it is that this woman's app (appearance) is definitely above the highest value of human beings, and it belongs to the category of mythical creatures!
I, I can see at a glance that you are not human!
The woman finally moved her gaze away from Yu Xing, and nodded lightly at Wang Jue: "I'm a witch, working in this shop... part-time for a day."

"Meow." A black ball on her shoulder moved, and it turned out to be a kitten integrated into the black robe.

　"Meow." The little black cat greeted him.
