Infinite spooky game

Chapter 132 Grand Performance () "The Decameron"

Zeiss once had a true friend.

There is no relationship of interest, no trade-off, just because they met at the right time and felt that the other person was not too annoying, they got together.

That was eleven years ago. There was a silly kid who happened to be sitting at the same table with him, and who happened to have no friends like him. The two of them naturally noticed and got close to each other, reading books, playing games, and sharing snacks together.

Zisi was only eleven years old at that time. Although he was no longer a normal person, at least he had not done anything illegal or criminal.

He just sat quietly in a corner and read some bloody and dark banned books; or after seeing criminal cases and horrific tragedies played on TV, he excitedly imagined the plight of the victims until his pale face turned red. , breathing also becomes rapid.

"Friends" couldn't understand his hobbies, but they were probably too afraid of being alone, so they still sat with him, reading and watching with difficulty and panic, trying to understand his excitement and joy.

After the two of them got acquainted, the "friend" also started to take him to do things that normal children would do, collect cards, laugh and play, tell some nonsensical jokes under the afternoon sun, and act like an idiot again, haha giggle.

Although Zis found his "friend's" jokes boring, he would still listen to them and tell some more boring jokes in response.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Some children who had nothing to do discovered the weirdness of Qiss and started playing the game of beating monsters wishfully.

Although children at that age are ignorant, their genes have already made them well versed in the principles of tree targets. The secret fear of not fitting in made them quickly gather together, trying their best to criticize Zis, a "black sheep" lurking in the crowd, and venting the child's innocent and stupid understanding of justice.

"Ziss is evil, we need to knock him down. Whoever plays with Qiss again is a bad guy, and we will knock him down together."

That's what the kids said.

"Friend" has never been a brave person and has always been afraid of being targeted, so he naturally stayed away from Qisi and stayed safe.

Ziss didn't think it was anything. He was used to being alone and had never had any idea about blending into the crowd. Now he just wanted to go back to his previous state.

But gradually, under the call of the children, his "friends" also began to bully him. In order to clear away the dark history of being with him, they even intensified their actions and wrote vicious insults on his desk, tearing him apart with great difficulty. Collection of books…

This really troubles Ziss. After all, cleaning the desktop and repairing books are not easy tasks for anyone. He is still not good at these tasks, and he doesn't want to waste time on boring repair work at all.

After repeated warnings to no avail, in order to get rid of this mosquito-like entanglement, Ziss could only close the eyes of his "friends" forever.

He has been a child with strong hands-on skills since he was a child, and it is not difficult for him to kill a peer.

His strong ability to act allowed him to formulate a complete plan soon after he came up with the idea, completed the steps including tool preparation, action drills, etc., and put it into practice.

But the subsequent troubles really frightened him, and he still feels sick to his stomach when he thinks about it.

His parents were still alive at that time, so of course he couldn't take the body back and scare the mediocre couple. If left outside, the body would smell and rot and risk being discovered by the police.

He had no choice but to eat his silly "friend" in one bite, eating it cleanly and filling him up.

——It was not delicious at all and he never wanted to eat it again.

……

After listening to Qisi's story, Dong Xiwen's sympathy disappeared.

This guy with the pseudonym "Zhou Ke" is not the same thing as his innocent brother. This guy is a lunatic, a psycho, a pervert. He doesn't look like a human being at all. He is to blame for being regarded as a heretic!

Qisi looked around at everyone, looking at their expressions, and basically confirmed his previous guess.

The details he mentioned were completely consistent with the way the deceased died, but no one identified him. There was only one possibility - the corpses the players saw were different.

Chiss looked at Charlie and asked politely: "Can we take a break and exchange details about the body?"

"Of course!" Charlie's cheerful laughter sounded muffled under the mask, "It seems that Mr. No. 1 has discovered the foreshadowing I left! Very good, very dramatic!"

As soon as these words came out, the players no longer cared about Qisi's bloody self-narration.

The hint is not unclear.

Dong Xiwen murmured: "The corpse I saw was that of a young boy. He had multiple fractures on his body and his brain was flowing all over his face."

"No, that's not what I saw." Hehui said with a pale face, "What I saw was a fat man..."

Qiss smiled, held his chin with his hand, and tapped his chin again and again: "Do you still remember the pre-cue? 'Everyone of us is guilty'..."

"I understand, each of us is a murderer, and what we see is the first person we killed." Hansen showed a sinister smile on his face, "You guys are pretending really well, if Zhou Ke hadn't pointed it out, Are you planning to turn me into a murderer and let me die?"

No one admits or denies it, the answer is very clear and no further discussion is needed.

Charlie said that the truth is not important, as long as one person is thrown out, even if there are indirect consequences if the wrong vote is made, it is better than being thrown out and executed.

"We can all abstain, but we didn't say we had to vote." Dong Xiwen muttered softly.

Charlie heard this and added with a smile: "If your votes are the same, then everyone will be executed! I have designed an artistic death method for each of you. Each of you is guilty and is worth trying. !”

Dong Xiwen's eyes widened: "But we are all murderers, how else can we vote? Everyone vote for themselves, and then commit suicide together to apologize?"

No one picked up the fight.

When everyone is a murderer, anyone can vote, so the most economical choice must be to select a victim and everyone will vote him out together. Cynthia pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "Since we are all murderers, there is no need to consider the truth. I think we will know who to choose after Charlie asks the third question."

Everyone looked at Charlie.

In full view of the public, the puppet-like NPC trembled exaggeratedly and burst out with a burst of crazy laughter: "The third question, what is your profession and contribution? Maybe someone with value can offset the merit and don't have to die. oh."

Qisi frowned slightly.

Assessing the value of life and deciding life and death based on value. This set of paradoxical standards made him think of the two endings of "Double Happiness" for no reason -

"Sacrificial victim" and "ending disaster".

What is Weird Game’s attitude towards this utilitarianism that sacrifices one person and fulfills the majority?

encourage? despise? Or is it like a god who lowers his eyes indifferently, letting low-dimensional creatures struggle to make various choices without paying attention?

Cynthia put her hands on the table and spoke solemnly: "I am the governor of the Federal District of Silesia. If you often pay attention to the social situation, you should know that I have promoted the improvement of the federal medical insurance system and paid attention to the rights of vulnerable groups for six years. I also went to the front line to provide rescue and assistance during the strange fires that swept the world."

She paused for a moment, and a pair of gentle eyes scanned everyone: "If I can leave this copy alive, I will continue to seek the welfare of all mankind, and continue to do what I have always done - fight for women's rights, let All girls can grow up in peace, happiness, equality and safety."

Qisi understood that Cynthia's words were aimed at He Hui, and they were of the same nature as his previous kindness to Dong Xiwen.

A vote involving life and death will inevitably not satisfy everyone. It only needs to win the support of some people.

"I don't believe a word you politicians say! Who can sit in that position without a few dirty things?" Hansen interrupted Cynthia's tirade with a sneer, and continued, "I am a loan shark. As you might guess, I haven’t done many good things in my life, including murder and arson.”

"You won't believe me when I say that I won't lend money anymore. But I can promise you that when I leave this copy, I will destroy the IOUs in my hand and let those old bad guys go. You should also know "Compared with my promise and that old woman's empty promise, which one is easier to realize?"

After Hansen finished speaking, he folded his arms and leaned back on the chair, with a "you guys have to figure it out" look on his face.

After these two people's speeches, the order of answers has been messed up.

Dong Xiwen was the third one to speak simply: "I hope to survive, because I still have things I want to do that I haven't finished yet. But if I have to die here, then so be it, someone will always have to sacrifice. But I feel, No sin should sit on this table and be judged in such a ridiculous way."

"I don't know how to answer Charlie's question. I haven't worked yet, and I haven't made any contributions. But I will try my best to be a kind and upright person. If one day I can change the old order, I will I can guarantee that no one will oppress others within my power."

"This may sound too idealistic and a bit false, but I still hope you can believe me. Maybe as long as everyone is more idealistic, the world will change..."

His words came to an abrupt end because Qisi suddenly looked at He Hui and said feebly: "I remember that Dong Xiwen is not the only one among us who has no job."

Hehui nodded slightly and said: "Yes, I am still in high school. But I can promise that I will never do bad things in the future. I have no choice but to commit crimes. If I couldn't bear it, I would not choose to kill..."

Qisi interrupted Dong Xiwen largely because he was disgusted.

He couldn't understand why in every dungeon he could meet so many "good people" who spoke idealistic terms, who looked like they had grown up in ivory towers and were well protected, and who always regarded kindness as a virtue. rather than stupidity.

But after hearing Hehui's speech, he realized a problem and slowly spoke it out.

"In your opinion, how should human value be defined? Sin and value are both things that cannot be quantified. Specific additions and subtractions cannot be made between the two, and right and wrong cannot be embodied in numerical values. Should a person die? How should we judge?”

Zeiss has always hated the principle of utilitarianism. For him, he would not hesitate to sacrifice people all over the world in exchange for his slightest interests.

At this moment, seeing the players deep in thought, he continued unhurriedly: "To talk about contribution to the world is even more illusory. In addition to humans, this world also has lower animals, plants, microorganisms, and inanimate objects. Just Looking at nature as a whole, the growth and prosperity of human populations may be a devastating disaster for other creatures..."

"Are you an animal rights activist or an environmentalist?" Cynthia asked calmly.

"No, I'm just curious about the perspective from which the so-called 'contribution' should be judged." Zeiss glanced sideways at Charlie, "From the perspective of NPCs and other weird people, the greatest contribution of mankind may be self-destruction, turning the world into a Ghost land; in the eyes of ordinary people, the greatest contribution of others is to solve their problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation, so that they can live a good life; in the eyes of politicians with a long-term vision, developing science and technology and exploring the future are the most meaningful things …”

"What on earth are you going to say?" Hansen said impatiently, "We are all human beings, do you still want to think about the problem from a weird perspective?"

Chiss looked at him, narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I just think it is meaningless to consider contribution outside this dungeon. Who can control what you will do after returning to reality? Hansen, if you die in this dungeon, you can I’m afraid it will take a lot of trouble to get back those loans, right?”

Hansen snorted coldly and said, "Even if I die, as long as those IOUs are still there, someone will collect the debt."

Ziss ignored him and looked around at everyone: "I can tell you that I am a taxidermist. The contribution I can make is to analyze the situation rationally and not to do things that endanger the collective interests out of stupidity and cowardice."

"I will vote for Hansen. He is the only one among us who is good at using force, and judging from the first two questions, his IQ is not very high. We cannot rule out the possibility that he will use force to coerce us in the future. The possibility of accompanying him to do stupid things. I think this unstable factor needs to be eliminated in the early stage."

Qisi thought of Chang Xu and the answer of "blow up the tram".

All kinds of isms are nothing but false propositions that will be crushed by absolute power.

In fact, it is not difficult to make the debate over doctrine play a leading role in the situation. All you need to do is exclude those with absolute power by using the rules.

Thinking of this, Ziss made a joke that was not funny: "Throw the stupid idiot out of the door so that we 'civilized people' can sit down and talk quietly, right?"
