Absurd deduction game

After the funeral, the resonance between the candle plate and the black coffin was broken. The black coffin decomposed into an unknown object that was so fragile that it peeled off when touched, while the intact candle plate was taken away by Yu Xing.

According to his guess, the black coffin is the source of the curse, and the candle plate is a sacrifice.

The curse was broken, the cold air on the sacrifice had subsided, and Yu Xing took the candle plate with him, so it was no longer harmful.

All the villagers in Coffin Village had been dealt with. The group returned to the village and randomly found a few houses to rest.

Yu Xing was a little regretful that some villagers in the village, such as the old lady with handicapped legs and feet, did not even go to the funeral and disappeared with other villagers.

But then I thought about it, their existence is against the laws of nature, and when they were transformed into this state of immortality, they must have actively or passively harmed innocent people. Disappearance is the best outcome for them. .

What was more difficult to deal with was the injuries of the Xu brothers. The two were too seriously injured at the time. Fortunately, although Wei Fan was an engineer, he unexpectedly had a healing sacrifice. Under Xiao Xuechen's instruction, he helped the Xu brothers once. Then everyone half-supported and half-carried the two people back to the village.

At least their lives were saved, and they could live and breathe in reality after leaving the game.

Yu Xing vaguely felt that the relationship between Wei Fan and Xiao Xuechen was not like that of simple colleagues, but rather that of a subordinate and a superior.

But this had nothing to do with him. After the crisis was resolved, he slept comfortably for another night in the empty room of the former village chief's house...that is, in the actual tomb, and forgot to set the alarm clock until The sun rose the next day, and he woke up slowly when Xiao Xuechen came and knocked on the door.

"San, are you up?" Xiao Xuechen's voice came from outside the door. After the battle at the funeral, the relationship between the two of them had become much closer.

"Ah..." Yu Xing slowly got up from the bed and rubbed his groggy head. He had no clothes on his upper body. The white fluffy top with too much blood was taken away by Wei Fan, who was inexplicably diligent and thrifty last night. Went to wash.

If he hadn't washed it, Yu Xing might have been arrested on the spot by the local police for questioning if he walked over the hill into the town in blood-stained clothes today.

Not only his clothes, but almost everyone else's clothes with obvious blood stains had been washed by Wei Fan. This sturdy middle-aged man was like a nanny, very contrasting.

"Can I come in?" Outside the door, Xiao Xuechen, holding a dry plush top in his hand, flashed with excitement.

Ah~ A good mood for the day starts from the moment you see a beautiful man!

"Come in." Yu Xing didn't shy away from this anyway, it was just about his upper body. He checked his pants and found that they were well dressed.

The door was pushed open, Xiao Xuechen carefully revealed his head, and then moved his whole body in.

The sun illuminated the room very brightly, and she saw Yu Xing sitting on the edge of the bed at a glance. The muscles on his body were strong and tight, the muscle lines on his arms were smooth and elegant, and his abdomen actually had eight-pack abs, and his whole body was glowing white.

The villain in her heart had already begun to bleed from the nose.

Woohoo, she seems to be really craving for his swollen body!

After sighing in his heart, Xiao Xuechen remained serious on the surface and handed the clothes over: "This... there are still blood marks, but you can't see it unless you look carefully. It's just the tear on the arm that can't be repaired. Wei Gong Said, it's a pity that he didn't bring any needle and thread..."

Yu Xing: "..." Wei Gong's skill point allocation is also very novel!

"Then I'll thank him when I see him later." He smiled at Xiao Xuechen and put on his clothes. Xiao Xuechen looked away with difficulty and reluctantly and touched her earlobe.

At this time, she saw an unattended oil painting floating in the corner of the ground.

Judging from the color tone, it looks like... San painted it before, right?

Yes, San painted Zhou Yongsheng so beautifully at that time, but later found out that Zhou Yongsheng actually had bad intentions. It must be very sad...

She walked over and wanted to pick up the painting.

The next moment, when she saw the picture again, her breath froze and her outstretched fingers trembled.

In the painting, the warm-toned young man disappeared. Instead, a few more strokes were added to the original painting to create a ferocious ghost, entangled and imprisoned by many shackles.

Mixed with warm colors, this ghost has a hidden heart palpitations and malice.

"This painting...when did you change it?" Xiao Xuechen picked it up anyway and turned to ask Yu Xing.

Yu Xing had already put on his clothes and took a look at the cracks on his sleeves. Fortunately, the seams were not big. No one would question his dressing style even if he said it was deliberately torn out.

Hearing Xiao Xuechen's question, he said casually: "I repaired it before the funeral yesterday. Don't look at it, just throw it away. It's not a good thing."

"You, you knew it was...?" Xiao Xuechen opened his eyes wide.

"Of course." Yu Xing nodded matter-of-factly and stretched out his hand to pluck his messy hair. "I drew it just to tease it and make it think that my plan was successful..."

He showed a nasty smile: "In this way, when it discovers that it is actually a loser from beginning to end, it will feel even more angry and desperate~"

Xiao Xuechen: ...It’s so scary.

Fortunately, she still felt that San was soft deep inside. I'm sorry, but she was naive.

Yu Xing guessed what Xiao Xuechen was thinking, and chuckled in his throat.

He is not a good person to begin with, so do you really think he has the leisure to paint pictures for a ghost whom he has only just met?

It's just a boring pastime, just burying the thread.

Soon, they packed up their things and everyone met at the entrance of the village.

Xiao Xuechen still took the painting with him, folded it and stuffed it into his bag.

She planned to throw it away later. She knew that Yu Xing didn't care. However, investigator deduction games all had causes and consequences. If the painting was left in the village and the official forces of the world later came to check and discovered the painting, There will be an unknown impact on the character of San.

Under the sun, several deducers, plus Zhou Qinghai, who had been kidnapped in a daze, passed by the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, planning to climb over the mountain on their way home.

The curse of the village is gone, so Zhou Qinghai naturally does not need to assume the responsibility of the village chief. Even though his origin is very strange, he is innocent and has experienced such a change. Perhaps in this deduction world, he will become a useful person in the future. The "NPC" of the story.

Provided that he didn't cast any shadow on Carlos' behavior.

But looking at his cheerful look early in the morning, he must have no longer cared about it. Yu Xing felt that Zhou Qinghai was not a classic normal person mentally. In short, he had a big heart.

The faces of the Xu family brothers were finally as pale as Yu Xing's usual. Their lips were gray and their words were weak, but their words still revealed the joy of surviving the disaster.

Several people said goodbye to each other. Although they would still climb the mountain "together", they all knew that this should only exist in the memory of the plot characters. The deduction system could not allow them as deductions to do such boring things.

"Guys, please leave your contact information when you go out. We will travel all over the country in the future, and maybe we can send you some specialties from various places." Xu Hong's body was tightly wrapped in bandages. He and Xu Yuan supported each other. Demonstrates the utmost kindness to others.

Perhaps because the supernatural power in the village has not dissipated, the signal is still not very good, and the phone and social software cannot be used, so we can only go to the town to talk.

"Okay, it would be nice to make a few more friends when you go out. Moreover, your warning at the beginning was right. If we were ordinary people, we might really be able to escape a disaster. You are kind-hearted Feng Shui masters. ." Xiao Xuechen patted Xu Yuan's uninjured shoulder casually, "It's a pity. Wei Gong and I are investigators. We definitely had to enter the village at that time, but I made you worry. I'm sorry."

"Then let's keep in touch with each other. By the way, let's create a group so we can share any interesting experiences in the future." Wei Fan clapped his hands.

Yu Xing nodded, and Carlos, who was holding his arms beside him, also snapped his fingers: "No problem~"

In this game, seven people entered, and six actually survived. This survival rate is definitely high, and it is also due to the fact that the game itself is not difficult. There are only two death points, the funeral on the first night and the second day.

So everyone was in a good mood and decided to use these words to implicate the fate of the characters.

It is worth mentioning that although the absurd deduction game is called a "game" and has a game system, it does not have a friend option.

In the vast world, a brief meeting will lead to a long separation.

To put it in layman's terms... if we form a team together this time, it will be even more difficult for us to meet them in the game next time.

If you want to fix teammates in other types of games, you can also use real-life teaming to enter the game. But in investigator-type deduction games, when the deduction player is not around, the characters are also moving around with the movement of the world, even in reality. After forming a team, you will find that the characters are so far apart when entering the game that it is difficult to meet each other.

This requires a little skill to build a network of relationships when you can control the character.

For example, what they are doing now... After reaching a consensus on establishing a group, the system will default to keeping in touch with their characters after they go home. Maybe they will visit each other, travel together, or have a drink. Coffee or something.

Take Xiao Xuechen and Wei Fan for example. Their roles are "colleagues" and they work in the same studio. It's not easy to play games together.

Everything in the absurd world seems to be running according to a strange logic. It gives freedom to "friends" and allows the players to experience the excitement brought by uncertainty.

After getting the network started, the system left the rest to the system. A few people set foot on the mountain and began the tiring work of climbing again.

After walking for more than ten meters, Yu Xing glanced back. The village surrounded by mountains... disappeared under the sunlight, leaving only a locust tree and a large, tattered hole beside the locust tree.

That should be the entrance to the tomb.

Sure enough, the entire village was just a mass tomb, and everything they saw and felt in the past two days was distorted.

The hiking pole in his hand poked the mountain ground, feeling real force.

emmmm... What changed in the water in the faucet that Wei Fan used to wash clothes?

This suddenly occurred to him.

Forget it, it doesn't matter, he's not mysophobic.

The scenery in front of him quickly blurred, and the voices of several people taking turns answering Zhou Qinghai's questions gradually disappeared. The next moment, the follow-up and settlement of the deduction appeared in Yu Xing's mind.

[You successfully left Coffin Village, entered the town with your companions, and reported the incident to the relevant departments. 】

[After the relevant departments intervened in the investigation, they found that the location of Coffin Village was filled with gloomy air, and there was a large tomb with strange dimensions underground. There were signs of human activity inside, so they sealed the news and conducted systematic research. You ignored the follow-up process and only listened to the Xu family brothers who stayed in the local area to mention that the source of the mutation of the tomb was the ancestral hall on the mountain. The ancestral hall was older than the tomb was built, which vaguely pointed to a more terrifying history. 】

[Your performance was highly praised by two fellow travelers. Not long after returning home, you were visited by a man who claimed to be a partner and member of the Strange Event Investigation Studio and invited you to become a member of the studio. . 】

[You thought this identity would help you investigate your family’s conspiracy, so you agreed. From then on, you became an investigator. 】

…
