absurd deduction game

The eavesdropping was so open and aboveboard, Yu Xing raised his eyebrows and stared at Ren Yi.

Ren Yi: "..."

He sat up silently: "Whenever I get any information in the town, I will give it to you for free."

Only then did Zhao Mou retract his hand, intending to confiscate the clean clothes he bought for Ren Yi.

He looked at Ren Yi's face and confirmed that the stagnation in the other person's soul caused by the Immovable Mountain Curse had disappeared, and no sequelae could be seen.

With some more evidence in his mind, Zhao Mou raised the corners of his lips and said teasingly: "Don't lie down when you wake up, Mr. Ren Yi~ This deduction obviously requires the participants to cooperate with each other. You go and wash up. Would you like to go to the town with us?"

"Okay." Ren Yi picked up the clean clothes and spread his messy long hair behind his head.

There was a place for people to bathe and change clothes in the hospital. Zhao Mou pointed out the direction, and Ren Yi went there obediently.

"He is exactly the kind of person who is calm on the outside but full of bad intentions on the inside." Yu Xing chuckled.

He had this feeling before when they met in the parallel line of death. More than a year later, the other person seemed to have changed a bit and became more difficult to figure out.

Zhao Mou shrugged.

The institute has also experienced many shocks in the past year or so. The intensity and frequency of deductions have repeatedly increased, and many civilian personnel who focus on intelligence have been caught off guard.

Not only has the amount of intelligence that needs to be analyzed increased significantly, but the probability that they themselves will be in danger during the deduction has also increased. For example, Zeng Lai almost died in a deduction before. I heard that Ren Yi and Zeng Lai were bound to some kind of monitoring system. The sacrifice of the life signal found that Zeng Lai was in bad condition, so Ren Yi just used his despair-level privileges to make a deal with the system, and entered the game midway to save people.

Because that rehearsal was not a live broadcast, although the news came out, no one knew the specific situation.

What is certain is that after coming out of that deduction, Zeng Lai rested for a long time by watching the live broadcast of the deduction. It seemed that there was some kind of physical problem, and Ren Yi speeded up his deduction frequency. In various deduction worlds Find answers.

Externally, the characters of Ren Yi and Zeng Lai seem to have changed little. Zeng Lai is still the same cheerful and cheerful gambler who appears to be cheerful at first glance, but is actually meticulous and careful.

But Zhao Mou's feeling is that they all seem to have become paranoid, as if there is a deeper purpose beyond their words and deeds.

However, he didn't want to comment too much on other people's affairs. This was just necessary for intelligence gathering. Especially in the live broadcast room, Zhao Mou couldn't say too much to Yu Xing.

"Ah, whatever, the siren hasn't woken up yet?"

As soon as Ren Yi woke up, the only deducer still sleeping in the hospital was Siren. Yu Xing walked to Siren's bed curiously, opened the curtain and looked inside.

The sleeping posture of Siren is simply two extremes from that of Ren Yi. She is lying on her side, her body under the quilt twisted into an indescribable posture, her flexibility is admirable.

She was wearing a plain old white dress and her hair was knotted.

In the coma, Siren frowned slightly and seemed a little uneasy.

"She is still special." Zhao Mou said, "The relationship between the sedan girl and Jiang Chong is particularly close. It can even be said that she exists specifically for Jiang Chong's mission. Now that the stage world has disappeared, her identity is not necessarily still the 'salan lady'. Probably the only one among us whose identity has changed."

"Why does she look so uncomfortable?" Yu Xing came closer and reached out to explore the other person's forehead.

The siren's forehead was cold, colder than a normal person's temperature. It was unknown whether it was due to her own bloodline problem or some sequelae left behind by her status as a sedan girl.

Thinking of the opponent's performance at the bottom of the river, Yu Xing softened his movements.

She had done her best. Even though she knew what she was going to face, she still jumped into the river without hesitation.

Although Yu Xing could observe the situation of the Kraken in real time from behind the reef, when kneeling in front of the temple to perform the ceremony, the Kraken had to bear the pollution of the groom's clothes, white ghost fire and the temple at the same time. No one could share the burden for her. .

When she ran away later, she tried her best to drag two big men who were taller and heavier than her, without even thinking about who she left behind.

Yu Xing still remembered that the other party was originally the newcomer led by Safuri in the late-night guild. It was really rare to be able to stay awake and stick to one's own three views under that woman.

"She also fell into a coma as soon as she got back to the boat. Song Xue also treated her and you a little, but due to time constraints and identity restrictions, Song Xue couldn't do much for you." Zhao Mou recalled.

"The Siren's condition is much worse than yours. I'm afraid we just have to wait for her to wake up..."

"Dr. Zhao, a patient is looking for you!"

Suddenly, a young man dressed as a boy ran into the front hall. He looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.

The young man seemed to be the waiter at the medical center. He had been busy in the front just now and his face was covered with sweat. He had a pair of deer-like eyes and looked quite delicate.

"Okay, I'll go over right away." Zhao Mou responded.

After the young man left, Zhao Moucai explained to Yu Xing: "My role as a doctor is a friend of the medical clinic owner. Recently, the boss went to a medicine garden out of town to purchase goods, so I have to help take care of it. This boy's name is Erhong, and his home is here. Two alleys away, I usually work in the medical center."

"Is this a key person?" Yu Xing tilted his head.

If it was just an insignificant waiter, Zhao Mou would not introduce it in such detail.

"Well, he is an orphan, and his parents both died of drowning. I haven't had time to find out the details yet, but there must be a story about him." Zhao Mou counted the time, "I'll go to the front to see the patient first, you can do whatever you want. Shopping, I was quite free in the morning, but became busy in the afternoon."

Although there are no mandatory requirements for acting, if Zhao Mou's role is used well, a lot of useful information can be obtained from the patients who come and go.

Therefore, he planned to manage the character well for the time being and prevent people in the town who knew Dr. Zhao from noticing the clues.

"Okay, I'll wait for Ren Yi, and then go with him to the Song family to see Brother Jiu and Zhao Ruru." Yu Xing waved his hand.

Perhaps to compensate for their previous fatigue, the overall rhythm relaxed after returning to the real world.

At least for the past three days, their only mission was to go to the witch's house in the town, and the address of the witch's house was not a secret. It was already written on the paper Zhao Mou gave him.

Maybe someone has already visited the deducers who were resting in other places?

In short, there is no rush. Yu Xing's plan is that in order to avoid triggering a new mission as soon as he sees the witch, he will first visit Fengtou Town and get as much hidden information as possible.

The positions of each merchant family, the filth and secrets in Fengtou Town, whether the real Yejiang River was flooded, what was the cause... and the reason why these characters were comatose before the deducers came——

It takes a lot of time to check.

……

The afternoon sun made the earth heat up. Shopkeepers on both sides of the stone road were hiding in their houses and lazing around. Two figures swaggered across the street.

Both were wearing well-fitting cloth shirts. One of them had wheat-colored skin, a strong body and bulging muscles. Although he had a handsome face, people coming and going still walked around him intentionally.

Such a figure is still too exaggerated for people of this era, just like those battlefield generals described in storybooks!

The other man looked much slimmer and wore a bamboo hat on his head, covering his face tightly.

Walking through an alleyway, Nie Lang endured the weird looks on passers-by's faces for the nth time, and said angrily to the man wearing a bamboo hat: "Your foreign face is covered, why are there so many people looking at us?" Look!"

"You can't blame me. Who made you look so aggressive? People are afraid of you." Quinn, who deliberately covered his face in order not to attract attention, was angry and funny.

All thanks to Nie Lang.

Nie Lang's height of more than 90 meters is considered to be outstanding in modern times, let alone in ancient times when the average height was lower.

Everyone looked at them a few times when they saw them, with mixed emotions such as surprise, admiration, envy, fear, etc. in their eyes.

Fortunately, out of caution, no one dared to approach them, so their investigation didn't cause too much trouble - what the heck, they couldn't find anything at all!

Quinn was a little crazy.

Based on the idea that Song Xue was inconvenient, he had to shoulder the responsibility of looking after Nie Lang. He came out of the inn early and met up with his teammates who came out of the medical center, intending to secretly observe the news in the city.

He never expected that even if he covered his face, he still couldn't stop the dazzling humanoid beast next to him.

Ordinary people can't pry out any news from their mouths. Those who have evil intentions and know secrets will run away when they see them from a distance. How can they be given a chance to make insinuations.

If this continues, they can only wait until dark and rely on their abilities to go to other people's homes to inquire... But except for the witch in the mission prompt, they haven't even determined the person they want to inquire about. Nie Lang also knew that the pot belonged to him. He took care of himself and controlled his temper before he lowered his voice and said: "Didn't you say this place is lively? Why are there so few people and not even a stall? I'm in the TV series with you." It looks different inside.”

"That should be a market. It's either an early market or a late market. Who's going to set up a stall at noon now?" Quinn sighed. He really couldn't imagine that he, a foreigner, knew more than the locals.

How many people still care about ancient culture?

He had no choice but to introduce it to Nie Lang: "Businessmen are the best group of people in this era to convey information. I came to Dongshi to make an unannounced visit... Forget it, it doesn't matter. Since our combination is destined to attract attention, Then stop wandering on the street and let’s go to the teahouse in front.”

If traders from all walks of life can bring news from all directions, then places like teahouses and taverns are the transfer stations for news. All three religions and nine streams have a place here, which is also suitable for outsiders to quickly adapt to the version.

Moreover, the seats above the teahouse are partitioned. They can sit back and listen without being noticed.

The two of them were chatting here, and the audience in the live broadcast room watching them was quite happy.

In the stage world before, the atmosphere was too heavy, especially in the later stages. Danger followed one after another, and performers were injured one after another.

The audience also became nervous and used their brains to reason out the situation. Their emotions were depressed, and the barrage became less and less...

To this day, Fengtou Town is full of fresh popularity that has not been seen for a long time. Nie Langquin's combination was already very popular. When they saw that they were defeated, the barrage suddenly started to burst into laughter.

[I live a very hard life, but I still like to have some fun. 】

[I have long heard that Quinn likes Chinese culture and loves to study it. Sure enough, when encountering this kind of deduction background, he is the only one who can lead his teammates to fly...]

[Laughing, Nie Lang looks like that bandit. Speaking of his height, in ancient times, would he be considered a "strange man"? 】

[The teahouse is great, are Yu Xing and the others coming this way too? 】

[Hey, has anyone discovered that there is a servant-like person behind Nie Lang and the others? Has he been traveling with them for too long? Could it be tracking? 】

[Is someone following you just after you wake up? Wouldn't that be great, clues delivered to your door. 】

[Not necessarily, I mean it doesn’t necessarily have to do with the behind-the-scenes existence they mentioned. I saw from Luo Xianfeng’s live broadcast room that Fengtou Town had posted a wanted order for them. 】

【Who two? ? 】

[Luo Xianfeng and Quinn, aren't these two bandits? They said they kidnapped several rich ladies before, including Zhao Dongxue and Song Xue. Although they were later sent back properly, those wealthy businessmen paid for them in vain. If you pay someone to ransom someone, you will definitely not let them go. 】

[Hey... In this era, women are tied to the mountains. Even if they are sent back intact, what's the use? Their reputation is long gone and it will affect them for the rest of their lives. 】

[Yeah, anyway, other rich girls described the appearance of the bandits to the official, so they and other unimportant gangster NPCs were ordered to be wanted by the official, and they were placed on the city wall not far from the city. 】

[Luo Xianfeng didn’t know it at first. After walking out of the inn, he walked to the city gate and came face to face with the wanted portrait. Fortunately, the rich ladies’ ability to describe was limited. The most talked about was the gang leader. Luo Xianfeng and Nie The miscellaneous fish played by Lang is not very impressive. 】

[Haha, the portrait on the wanted poster has little to do with them, but it does not rule out that there are sharp-eyed people. Luo Xianfeng was so frightened that he immediately went to buy a hat. Quinn had already had the foresight. 】

Discussions in the barrage were heated, but the battle on Jiangshang was rarely mentioned.

There are also people who specialize in various live broadcast rooms and broadcast everyone's situation in real time.

[Reporter Zhao Yijiu and Zhao Ruru have woken up and are talking to the servants of the Song Mansion. 】

[Reporter, almost everyone in the medical center has woken up, only the Kraken is left. They plan to split up. The place where Yu Xing and Ren Yi are going is actually the West Market. 】

【Report again after exploring again! 】

[Wait a minute, look, that person is really following you! 】

With some serious reminders, the perspective of the audience in the live broadcast room finally fell on the little tail falling not far behind Quinn and Nie Lang.

The servant-looking man had a guilty conscience on his face, and his movement skills were also very poor. Whenever he felt that the two of them were about to turn around, he would hide behind the nearest building.

Most importantly, why is the servant following them? What do you want to do?

On the screen, Quinn and Nie Lang bought some food at the bun shop. As they were paying, Nie Lang glanced at the servant from the corner of his eye.

"Humph." Nie Lang sneered silently.

Of course he knew there was a tail following them all the way.

He could even tell which street or alley the little tail followed them from.

The first minute he noticed someone following him, he wanted to arrest the person and question the person behind it, but Quinn stopped him and asked him to wait and see what happened.

……

Yu Xing visited the entire medical center.

The medical center named Baishoutang is not large, and many medicinal materials that he cannot name are planted in the yard. It can be called a mini medicine garden.

The entire backyard of the medical center serves doctors and patients. Several rooms are divided into several rooms. Some are used for patients to rest, some are used for bathing, some are used for decoction, and some are used as warehouses. , store medicinal materials.

When he visited, he didn't meet any other doctors in the backyard, only two apprentice-looking people cooking medicine.

The two apprentices were about the same age as the waiter Erhong whom Zhao Mou specially introduced to him. They teamed up to take a nap in the back by cooking medicine. When they saw Yu Xing, they hurriedly said hello to him.

"Captain Yu, you're awake."

Yu Xing saw that the two of them seemed to know him and stopped to talk to them.

He didn't ask anything else, but why he was lying in the hospital with the condom on. The two children couldn't play with him. In less than five minutes, he fully explained "the dart head was injured".

It turns out that Yu Xing's role as the escort leader comes from out of town, and he comes from Fengtou Town as an escort.

The goods he transported were bought by wealthy businessmen in the city at a large price and were to be given to the most famous "Master Feng" here to celebrate his eightieth birthday.

According to the rumors learned by the two children, the escort team led by Yu Xing broke into internal strife on the way. Some escorts revolted and killed each other when they saw their wealth. Thanks to the superior martial arts of escort leader Yu, he managed to save the goods, and one person brought the goods to .

The blood-stained escort chief attracted the attention of the police in the city. Fortunately, the wealthy businessman who received the goods vouched for the escort chief, so that the escort chief was not expelled from the city.

After the escort order was handed over, Escort Yu finally fell into a coma due to exhaustion. Since Fengtou Town did not have a stronghold of Youlong Escort, the wealthy businessman saw that he was seriously injured, so he was kind-hearted and sent the escort directly to the hospital and paid in advance. Got the medicine money.

Not only that, the wealthy businessman also vigorously promoted the bodyguard's ability and character, saying bluntly that if the bodyguard was willing to leave the bodyguard bureau and become his family's thug, he would definitely offer the highest salary.

Of course, the unconscious bodyguard himself had no way of knowing the latter part, but everyone in the hospital heard it.

When saying this, the young man who cooked the medicine showed a look of admiration for Yu Xing.

Yu Xing was thoughtful and ended the conversation with a smile.

Thoughts were swirling in his mind, and he realized one thing from the two teenagers' stories -

The direction of his character is almost the same as that in the stage world!

He was also transporting a piece of cargo to Fengtou Town, but was betrayed by the bodyguard on the way. However, in the version told by the boy, he did not meet the saint and the dog god, but single-handedly guarded the cargo and successfully delivered it.

Could it be that the experiences arranged by the stage world for their characters are not just fabrications, but also refer to their original destiny trajectories?

This is too lazy.

However, this kind of lazy behavior is also becoming a convenience for the deducers to investigate.

Yu Xing wrote down the "Master Feng" who the young man said was about to celebrate his eightieth birthday. It was said that the birthday banquet was in three days, and the invitations to the birthday banquet had been distributed. By then, only those holding the invitation letters could enter Feng Mansion.
