Quadruple split

"Has the commotion over at Yanjin Court been resolved? Is there anything I can do to help?"

Casting a soft gaze at the uninvited guests, the orange-haired woman wearing glasses had a calm and indifferent expression, but the beautiful black quill in her hand did not stop at all and was still writing at an eye-catching speed.

Wang Cheyi noticed that although the other party was not looking at the parchment on the table at all after he raised his head, the cursive English (elven) text that seemed to have been printed on it was not affected at all, which showed that he was proficient in paperwork. .

Obviously, the woman in front of her, who is not big but has an intellectual and calm temperament, is the actual person in charge of the Second Confidential Division, the heavyweight suspect named 'Lin Qiu' who pushed the assassin who assassinated Voris into Yanjin Yard. .

One thing to say is that whether it was on the way here or when they just went upstairs, the three people at [Iron Door Bolt] were very sure that this person was the secretive and heinous spy in the background story. At the same time, there was a high probability that this person was He is one of the two remaining players who replaced the NPC's [Harlequin Card].

As a result, when they pushed the door into the house and saw this girl sitting upright and working at the desk, their originally firm speculations were immediately shaken. There was no other reason. In fact, this girl was full of energy from the inside out. The person in charge of the Second Confidential Division, who looks like a professional elite, doesn’t look like he’s harboring evil intentions.

So, what is the real situation?

What else can we do? We all know that [Raccoon Dog], whose pseudonym is 'Lin·Qiu', was replaced by Futaba from the beginning. In other words, the three members of the [Iron Door Bolt] team did guess correctly what they were looking for. The enemy is the woman in front of him.

As a result, the three of them are now a little unsure. The reason has been mentioned before, that is, Futaba at this moment does not look like a person with evil intentions at all.

If it was the same kind of virtue that she usually had when getting along with Mo Tan, Futaba would have been arrested and controlled by now, but at this moment she completely changed her style and directly made herself a career elite. His character design bluffed the three of them with just one meeting.

The evidence that can prove that Futaba is 'Futaba' and not 'Lin Qiu' did not exist from the beginning, because under the interference of the system, Lin Qiu, the head of the Second Confidential Division in the current world view, is a possessor. A girl with long orange hair, wearing glasses, and a height of barely over 150 centimeters.

No matter what ‘Lin Qiu’ looks like in real history, at least in this world view mirrored by the system, Futaba is Lin Qiu.

No NPC will doubt Futaba's appearance. Her characteristics in any records match Lin Qiu, so it is impossible to see through the identity of Futaba's players through a third-party perspective from the beginning. .

In other words, the only local who can not be affected by the system in this game and will not connect Futaba and Lin Qiu is [Cat] who has also had his identity replaced and is also in Jiuquan City at this moment. Tan Mo, [Snake] Mu Xuejian, [Grand Archon] changed his position, [Greatest Bishop] was promoted, and [Inspector Team Holds the Flag] order was destroyed.

The first two are Mu Xuejian’s teammates and there is nothing to say, but none of the three people in the [Iron Door Bolt] team have seen Futaba with their own eyes, so even if they have always known about such a person, they still don’t know. Is she a boy or a girl, fat or thin, 1.5 meters tall or 1.6 meters tall?

Therefore, in this situation with no evidence, whether they can see through Futaba's disguise can only rely on their own ability. Although these three brothers are not low in intelligence, they may not be able to see through Futaba with their own IQ. Ye's disguise, so they realized immediately that the 100% reliable way was to start from another angle and directly verify whether 'Lin Qiu' was a spy, bypassing the verification of the player's identity. .

If the answer is yes, then as long as the 'player' and 'system' perspectives are used as the first and second priority reference, it can be inferred that she is Futaba, the player of the [Harlequin Card].

But the problem is...

there is no time!

The three people at [Iron Door Bolt] think very clearly. They know very well that when the assassin has surfaced, as long as they keep an eye on Lin Qiucha from the Second Confidential Division, they will soon know whether she is the spy. , after all, you only need to use the previously leaked information as a context to connect to this woman. If everything can be connected, then she is a real spy. Most likely, if not, then she is an innocent and good comrade.

In fact, if the investigation is really launched like this, not to mention the character 'Lin Qiu', not even the intelligence source of her writing lover, the person in charge of Jiuquan City's Confidential Section, will not be able to escape, and he will be directly removed. Bring out the radish and bring out the mud.

but!

The word 'quickly' above is just a relative term. Although the process is not complicated, if you really do this, it will take at least two, four, six, eight days to find out the result.

However, this game only lasts three hours!

This time is not short, it is more than enough to grind some beans and make a cup of coffee, but it is not long, and it is naturally not enough to verify the identity of a suspected spy from scratch.

Having said that, the reason why Wang Cheyiyi and others were so calm after learning that the distinguished guest had his head chopped off was because even if the 'higher-ups' were furious and decided to massacre their entire leadership team in Jiuquan City, they would not be able to do so. The three brothers were taken to the execution ground in just three hours.

It is precisely because of this that they dare to remain indifferent even though they know that something might happen to the 'little duke', and even wait and see how things develop with a lively mentality.

As a result, as soon as their front foot took advantage of the 'time', their back foot suffered a series of losses after finding Lin Qiu, and it was difficult to get off the horse.

"Three people?"

Seeing the grand consul, the greatest bishop, and the inspectors holding flags in front of them all remained silent with complex expressions, Futaba finally put down the pen in his hand, rolled up the parchment in front of him with ease, and printed on it with quick hands and feet. He was very patient but obviously spoke faster and asked again: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Wang Cheyi, who was temporarily regarded as the captain of the [Iron Door Bolt], sighed and said bravely: "You know what happened at Yanjin Academy..."

"Yes I know."

Futaba adjusted her glasses and said in a brisk tone: "The subordinate who went there to show my face on my behalf sent back the news immediately after the accident. Considering the geographical location, I should have been about five minutes earlier than the three of them. The disturbing and tragic news was heard left and right.”

Shengbian, who is currently the greatest bishop, cleared his throat and asked with great force: "So why are you still here and indifferent?"

"Forgive me, my lord, but I am not indifferent."

Futaba picked up the roll of parchment that had just been sealed on the table, shook it, and said calmly: "I am the person in charge of the Second Confidentiality Division. In this case, my job is to report what happened today as soon as possible. The events at Yanjin Academy were recorded, and then someone was sent to deliver this document and its copy to the Confidential Area, the City Hall, and the Iron Guard Restricted Area, and then a second draft was made for the record after considering the feedback from the three parties. , so... in principle, I am actually working."

Order Destruction frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, you said that you want to record what happened in Yanjin Courtyard today as soon as possible. Does it mean that you actually know what happened there? But now you are so far away It just happened after it happened..."

"I'm sorry, my lord, but..."

Futaba's expression subtly interrupted the destruction of order, but she did not speak immediately, but turned her attention to the guards around the three of them.

"Leave them alone."

Worried that the other party would immediately start a murderous attack after the bodyguards left the scene, Wang Che Yiyi waved his hand and said sternly: "Go on."

"Uh, okay."

Futaba hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, and said with a somewhat helpless expression: "What I want to say is, in principle, I don't actually need to know what happened over there, because... this matter ended in The result could only be that a cunning assassin sneaked into Yanjinyuan with the cooperation of someone and attacked Lord Voris. Although everyone headed by the Archon took action immediately, setting up a dragnet to kill the assassin and his collaborators, But it still failed to save Lord Voris’ life.”

"..."

The three people at [Iron Door Bolt] were not fools, so they did not ask Futaba innocently after her explanation, 'Who is that person?' or 'The assassin hasn't been caught yet?' Obviously, in this case, the most correct 'process' is to submit such a report and leave two blank positions for [Assassin] and [Assassin Co-operator]. If the prisoner is caught, then directly Fill in the names. If you can't catch them... then kill two people and fill in their names.

Yes, the process is like this. After all, things have happened. If the murderer cannot be caught, there must be a scapegoat. There cannot even be just one assassin. Even the cooperator must create one out of hand, and the status cannot be low. , and only in this way can the leaders who are still alive have a chance of survival.

All in all, as the top person in charge of the Second Confidential Division, there is absolutely nothing wrong with what Futaba said just now, so much so that the three people at [Iron Door Bolt] didn't even have to find fault, because they are completely the best in this job. direct beneficiaries.

but……

"Ms. Lin Qiu."

As the inspector carrying the flag, specifically responsible for clearing up the internal disruption of order, he took a step forward and stared at Futaba with a gloomy look: "According to reliable intelligence, the murderer who killed Mr. Voris was none other than one of you. Recommend the dancer to Yanjinyuan, do you have anything to explain about this?"

Futaba frowned and seemed a little surprised: "The person I recommended? The girl with white hair?"

"I'm asking the question now, Ms. Lin Qiu."

Destruction of Order racked his brains to recall the painting styles of the villains in movies and TV series, while slowly walking up to Futaba, and in the next moment he suddenly raised his hand and slapped it on the table, shouting: "Explain!"

"Okay, my lord."

Futaba, who was not frightened at all, nodded slightly and said calmly: "The person who asked me to do this is Loris. This is my explanation."

Destruction of Order was immediately confused, but then he remembered the identity of Loris, who was a senior leader in Jiuquan City second only to the greatest bishop, grand consul, and inspector general, and the general manager of the Confidential Department. The person in charge has a status similar to that of the director of the Intelligence Bureau.

"what to do……"

Having lost his mind, Order Destruction could only look back at his teammates, his head almost turning into a mess.

However, the other two people were a little confused at this moment. After all, the development of the situation at this moment has completely exceeded the original plan. Lin Qiu, who was very likely to be replaced by a member of the enemy team, has a serious and responsible civil servant style. , a matter that is not complex in theory also involves a lot of chaos.

"Loris...Loris..."

Wang Che Yiyi, who was in a state of confusion, repeated the name of the opponent's report, and raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead with a pale face.

He suddenly realized that the three people on his side seemed to think of this team battle too simply and ideally. So when unexpected variables appeared one after another, the three people who had made complete plans immediately fell into a state of passivity. , just because things did not develop as they imagined.

【what to do? what to do? What to do? What to do? What to do? ? ? 】

"Hey, Uncle Wang!"

As a result, at this moment, Shengbian next to him suddenly slapped the increasingly pale Wang Cheyi position, shook his head imperceptibly, and said in an imperceptible voice: "Don't mess up."

"Um……"

Wang Che Yiyi, who had calmed down a little, gently hammered his forehead, and said to the promotion and the destruction of order that he had just returned: "I'm sorry, I just have no clue. Damn it, I burned the CPU." .”

Order Destruction gave a wry smile, nodded and said: "I'm about the same, I don't know what to do anymore."

"Nothing left?"

Shengbian twitched his lips and said helplessly: "Then listen to what I, a young man, think. First of all, Mu Xuejian has left Yanjin Academy for a long time. Even if he is still not a threat to us, the distance has turned into a threat. 'There will definitely not be too long left, plus there are doubts about the situation of the other two people, we have no time to waste now."

Wang Cheyi nodded slightly and followed his thoughts closely: "So what you mean is..."

"The road goes to the dark side."

Shengbian glanced at Futaba not far away covertly, gritted his teeth and said: "Control her according to the original plan, and then don't go anywhere, just set up defenses centered here. If the bet is right, then it will be like We planned to play around the spot and get reinforcements, if the bet is wrong..."

"What will happen?"

"It won't matter. We haven't lost anything anyway. Let's take the NPCs and fight with them in a positional battle."

"this……"

"Not smart enough, but you won't be fooled by cleverness, right?"
