absurd deduction game

"It's not me who raised you."

Under Yu Xing's questioning with a smile, as if everything was clear, the young man hoarse his voice and spoke a little faster.

He grabbed the mouse that was rubbing against his neck with one hand, and finally took a step forward.

The mouse landed on the ground, and before it could react, it was trampled to death by the boy. Its internal organs and blood burst out instantly.

Blood splashed on the upper of the red cloth shoes and immediately soaked into it, but the red was mixed with red, and no trace could be seen.

The big gray mouse's shrill chirping only came out halfway before it suddenly stopped. The young man didn't even pause. After stepping over the mouse, he walked forward step by step.

It seemed that he agreed to Yu Xing's proposal to let him go in front.

Yu Xing found it more and more interesting.

He looked at the rat carcass on the ground and judged the boy's strength. He didn't raise his leg to step on it. He just walked normally and could crush the rat.

He is a "thin" boy with strange strength.

What’s even stranger is that although the young man’s body is filled with yin energy, it’s not clear whether it’s a ghost or a human being. His aura is somewhere between the two, as if a thin steel lock is placed between life and death, shaking constantly. .

To be honest, Yu Xing seemed to have had the same feeling from the Xu family.

This young man is either a terrifying ghost, or he is a so-called capable person in this era. He has evil magic in his hands and deals with ghosts every day.

Yu Xing slowly followed the young man. This time, the positions of the two were reversed. The young man was walking in front with a slightly awkward posture, while Yu Xing followed calmly and looked at him with his eyes. Staring at the boy's back.

The presence of his gaze is not light.

This street is neither long nor short, and we reach the end very quickly step by step.

There are three forked roads ahead, and on the left and right are small alleys that turn to two other streets, and then forward to the main entrance of a rice shop.

The young man's figure stopped at this fork in the road. The smile in Yu Xing's eyes deepened, wanting to see how the young man could "predict" his route and "coincidentally" be on the same road with him.

Three seconds later, the boy walked to the left.

When he chose the road on the left, the boy didn't even look back, as if he didn't care where I, a man who only walked the same street, would go. If the gray mouse hadn't exposed him, it would have been like that. .

Yu Xing watched his figure disappear and then walked to the right.

He turned into the alley.

The alley is long and winding, only as wide as two people, and is simply sandwiched between two neighboring houses.

The walls in the alley were still dirty, and because they were cramped, they were even darker. There was not even a lantern for lighting.

Yu Xing quickly emerged from the alley, but the moment he raised his head, his eyebrows moved.

The entrance to the alley is not a brand new street.

It was the "Laicai Street" that he just walked through, with shops on both sides and a road name sign hanging on the street.

The door of the pastry shop was opened a little wider, and it was still dark inside.

The festive red paper on the window was half blown off by the wind, hanging on half-deadly like a person hanging his head.

A young man wearing dusty clothes and a pair of bright red cloth shoes was parked a dozen meters in front, as if waiting for him.

Yu Xing did not hesitate and walked forward: "What a coincidence, I see you again."

He didn't mention anything about deliberately choosing the opposite direction to the boy.

Even for the party being plotted, he seemed too comfortable.

When he came to the young man's side, the young man opened his mouth. There was no pride, no nervousness, no emotion, and the words were as straightforward as a blank sheet of paper.

"I said that."

The boy tilted his head slightly, revealing a dark eye from his messy short hair.

"We are on the same journey."

Yu Xing looked at him with blue pupils and raised the corners of his lips again.

He smiled like a fox - also in a literal sense. His narrow eyes were raised, and a pair of eyebrows suppressed the charming charm of the mole under his eyes, dissipating all the femininity that might be mixed with the soft outline. , people can realize at a glance that he looks like a vixen, but he is not a female fox, but a male fox.

"Are you sure you really want to go with me?"

There was a fierce look in Yu Xing's eyes that only came out after being provoked. It was mixed with the smile in his eyes, and it was hard to tell which one was real.

"People and ghosts may not be different, but they must keep a distance from monsters. Ghosts also pay attention to cause and effect, but monsters just want to suck your essence. The skills you have learned are useless against monsters~"

The young man asked: "Are you a demon?"

Yu Xing was talking casually, really wanting to tease this interesting young man. He nodded slightly, but suddenly revealed some truth in his speech: "The person who sent you here only found out that I am a bodyguard, right?"

"You guys, why don't you find out what 'he' went through when he entered the mountain?"

"The escort passed by my door and hunted one of my fox nephews, so I sucked his essence and covered him with his skin."

The young man's dark pupils narrowed slightly.

Just from the emotion revealed in this eye, one can't help but suspect that the young man is seriously considering the possibility that the person in front of him is a fox demon in disguise.

The two brothers Yu Xing kindly put their hands on the young man and leaned towards him. They were trying to imitate what they were doing, showing a hint of undetectable hunger: "The person behind the scenes gave you, this little mouse, to me for food rations." Yes?"

"Look at you, you're not in the form of a mouse, little guy. The mouse you just gave me is too small. I really don't like it, but the size looks right for you."

The cursed black mist was controlled by him and condensed into the shape of a fox head in the night, covering his face.

Because he couldn't see clearly, the boundary of the black fog almost blended into the dim air, making it even more mysterious and agile.

Yu Xing brought his fox head close to the young man's face, and a faint blue halo appeared around his eyes: "I wonder if you have any good mice?"

The young man shook off his hand fiercely and took several steps back. The tips of his ears were exposed, dripping with red blood, which was almost the same color as the cloth shoes on his feet: "I don't taste good!"

For the first time, his tone showed obvious fluctuations, and he even forgot to refute that he was sent here.

Yu Xing laughed sincerely, but to the young man's ears, it sounded like a fox demon making final preparations for the meal.

Yu Xing thought, it's even.

The young man used a ghost to hit the wall to scare him, thinking that he had never seen it, so he made up a man-eating fox monster to scare him away.

While scaring people, they also confirmed their intentions.

Sure enough, he was sent here.

Since the people behind the hidden mission have taken measures to light up lights every night in order to cover up Li Huaihua's death, it means that at least so far, the whereabouts of Li Huaihua's soul cannot be known.

In this case, how could people not stare at Li Huaihua's yard?

Either he uses some evil magic to keep an eye on him, or he puts an eyeliner to watch for him.

When Yu Xing embarked on this hidden mission, he knew that someone must have seen him and Zhao Ruru entering Li Huaihua's yard. However, he did not notice the prying eyes of humans or ghosts at the time, so he thought it would be better to take the initiative. Passive, just wait.

The young man arrived later than he expected.

At first, he felt the yin energy around him suddenly thicken and the temperature dropped, and he knew someone was looking for him.

He was waiting for the other party to make a sneak attack. Unexpectedly, the other party followed him all the way and didn't make any move. He only used some tricks to scare him, which made him a little confused.

It wasn't until Xiao Yulan pointed out the boy's location and put an end to this useless stalking that Yu Xing turned his head and saw the face of the stalker. Hidden under the indifference and numbness of the young man is embarrassment and stiffness. Rather than being gloomy, Yu Xing prefers to call this state social fear.

After just one glance, he was sure that this young man was not the boss behind the hidden mission. At most, he was a "subordinate"? And he was probably the spy monitoring Li Huaihua's yard.

Seeing the cloth tiger turn into a gray mouse with his own eyes, Yu Xing understood why he didn't notice the sight at the entrance of Li Huai Garden.

It turns out the monitor is a mouse.

This young man is probably a stranger who can control rats. He has many magic spells related to rats. The person looking at the courtyard gate is a real rat. In this city, there are almost countless rats and all kinds of insects after dark. Yu Xing didn't pay much attention.

Precisely because the boy was related to mice, Yu Xing came up with such a funny idea on a whim. Foxes eat mice, so the boy would also be a little scared, right?

He didn't know if there were monsters in the world view of this game, but monsters, like ghosts and gods, would always appear in people's mouths, whether true or false, and become frequent guests in strange stories.

The young boy is still a little young. Since he has come into contact with ghosts and beast-controlling animals, he will be more inclined to believe that there are really fox demons in this world.

Yu Xing exerted some physical pressure on the socially fearful boy, which immediately opened a crack in the boy's indifferent shell, and this was precisely the flaw.

With his rank, the boy really couldn't beat him.

"You can only know if it tastes good or not. Anyway, when that person asked you to come over, he just gave up on you. You might as well become my food. In this case, aren't we on the same journey?"

Yu Xing frantically applied eye drops to the person behind the scenes, trying to get the young man to reveal more. He put away his black fog fox head and smiled evilly, "Or, wait until I suck all your essence and eat all your flesh and blood." , just put on your skin and walk with your skin, not only can we go the same way, but we can also use the same mouth and speak the same words."

The boy took another step back.

Just as soon as he moved, his lower body - or rather his feet wearing red cloth shoes, seemed to have some deviation from the instructions of his brain. The range of movement was half a beat smaller, causing him to lose his balance and fall on the ground. On the dirty road.

Yu Xing did not miss this detail. He was thoughtful and suddenly had a new guess.

These red cloth shoes, which have the strongest yin energy, are not what the young man wants to wear?

After all, the boy looked really out of place with these shoes, and even showed some signs of being restrained and controlled by these shoes.

The young man who felt embarrassed because of his fall had a grimace on his face and got up slowly. Then he seemed to be worried about the fox demon's misfortune and wanted to run away first before making any plans.

As soon as he turned around, he thought about escaping to the alley behind. His movements looked stiff, but his speed was extremely fast, and there was no sound under his feet. He was as light as a feather, and it was completely impossible to tell that he actually had strange power in his body.

But in an instant, the boy felt his wrist being grabbed.

"Did my rations escape?" Yu Xing snatched the person back with one paw.

This young man's wrist was really thin, barely covered with meat, and he was completely malnourished.

The young man lowered his head slightly, flicked his wrist, and suddenly there were a few mice in his sleeves. The mice shook out from the sleeves, chirping, and were about to bite Yu Xing.

Not only that, the environment in Yu Xing's eyes also changed suddenly. The entrance of the alley became an airtight wall, and there was a narrow alley entrance on the wall beside it.

What a transposition.

His eyes just dazzled for a moment, and the touch in his hands was different again. From the boy's warm skin to the rough texture of cloth, he saw that the boy he caught had been replaced by a half-human rag doll, and the boy I have already rushed to the alley entrance on the wall, leaving only a hem of my clothes.

What a golden cicada escaped from its shell.

Yu Xing immediately chased after the young man, and the intrusive rats at his feet were instantly crushed into scum by the curse. It only took a blink of an eye.

He dodged to the wall and was about to follow, but he bumped into the hard mud wall.

The mud wall collapsed due to his impact, and the "alley entrance" above it also revealed its clues. The curve bent according to the angle of the collapse, making a "crash" sound.

Yu Xing touched it and found a hand of wet paint, and tore off a thin piece of paper.

Behind the paper, there is still a mud wall.

The entrance to the alley was actually drawn on paper and pasted on the wall!

Even the section of the young man's clothes that he saw from that angle just now were just a few strokes of fake outline, and through the darkness of the night, the boundary with reality was completely blurred!

After such a delay, the real boy has long disappeared.

Yu Xing himself was not hurt by the impact. He looked at the torn pieces of drawing paper in his hands, and with mental preparation, he looked at the wall blocking the alley.

A very real mud wall, perfectly integrated with the scenery on both sides.

But he stretched out his hand and poked a hole in the "mud wall", revealing the deep alley behind.

This wall is just a piece of drawing paper.

It turns out that it is not a change of position, but a superb deception.

The boy's noises made him think that he had fled into the alley on the wall. In fact, while Yu Xing hit the wall, he had already escaped into the real alley and escaped.

It's really fun.

Yu Xing couldn't help but admire.

Is this a trick or a sleight of hand?

He had not seen such powerful tricks during the Republic of China. Is it because these abilities were lost in the long river of history? Or is it because this is a deduction world and the existence of various ghosts and gods has demonized the effectiveness of such tricks? , did this have such an amazing effect?

After thinking for two seconds, Yu Xing couldn't figure out the reason, so he threw down the drawing paper in his hand and hesitated for a moment.

He was very interested in this boy. If he really wanted to chase him... I wonder how far the boy had traveled in just ten seconds?

To find an ordinary person in Fengtou Town, Yu Xing only needs to expand the range of breath perception to be sure to find him.

But if the search target deliberately hides his aura, and with the blessing of personal abilities or rules, it will be difficult. He can only turn countless branches into his own eyes, bit by bit. Go and look for it, look for it everywhere.

The young man had been staying in Fengtou Town for an unknown period of time. A local snake had a better understanding of the nearby terrain and empty houses than an outsider like him who had just arrived and had only explored the area during the day.

After thinking about it, Yu Xing gave up and continued chasing.

Not to mention that if he had followed closely just now, he might have been able to catch someone. With a boy with such speed, magic tricks, and abilities related to rats, once he disappeared from sight, it would be difficult to catch him, because the direction would be a little off. , which is exactly the opposite direction, increasing the distance several times.

But as long as he is still investigating the hidden mission, he will always encounter it a second time. When the time comes, he will not let the young man escape again.

I wish the young man to have a nightmare related to the fox demon tonight.

Yu Xing, who scared the boy away by using the opposite direction, walked the "Laicai Street" again and came to the three-way intersection ahead again. This time he chose the left - this is the road leading to the Zhao Mansion. The young man guessed correctly just now.

This time, there was no interference and he walked out smoothly.

The Zhao Mansion is already close at hand.

Except for Luo Yan, who lives temporarily in the Zhao Mansion, Yu Xing has nothing to say to the three Zhao family members. He has no doubt that after leaving the stage world and without the constraints of identity and ability, the three Zhao family members will come together. If your son meets him alone, he will definitely get in trouble.

Not fatal to him, but annoying enough.

When he came to the gate of Zhaofuyuan again, Yu Xing hoped in his heart that he would only meet Luo Yan and not meet anyone who was short-sighted. He had no intention of dealing with anyone tonight.

Oh, but if there isn't much worth exploring in the Zhao Mansion at night, then Luo Yan and the three Zhao family members should have already left the house.

All in all, go check it out first.

As usual, climb over the wall.

The Zhao Mansion is much richer than the Song Mansion, and its courtyard walls are much taller.

He found out that Mr. Zhao of the Zhao family was the first group of people to receive the invitation letter for Mr. Feng's birthday, so either the birthday gift list was good, or the Zhao family and Mr. Feng themselves were involved.

Yu Xing landed lightly.

Before he could take a good look at the luxurious scenery of Zhao Mansion, a system prompt suddenly sounded in his ears.

[Regional rules have been updated. Zhao Mansion is a separately divided area and has independent rules. Please pay attention to abide by them. 】
