Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 2082 New clues
Looking at herself in the portrait, she lost her mind for a while.

Under the thick black eyelashes, there is always a soft and hopeful smile in her eyes; she has worked hard in the doomsday world to keep her white and neat teeth, which makes her smile Especially amiable.The oil painting is not only realistic, but also captures her "God" well.

When her eyes lingered on the slender and clean neck of the portrait, Scott's voice sounded from the other side of the cave, calling: "Pan Cui? Pan Cui, are you listening to me?"

Pan Cui turned around and hurried a few steps towards Scott's portrait, covering her neck with one hand, fearing that the wound would be affected, and said hoarsely to the oil painting hanging on the mountain wall: "I'm listening... …I have a cold, and it hurts to speak out, you say, I listen.”

According to Scott and the reaction of several other portraits she occasionally heard, Pan Cui believes that the time when this "game" really starts should be when Peter knocks on the wine glass and asks the newcomers to introduce themselves— Before that, the oil paintings didn't seem to hear what the evolutionaries said, nor did they respond.

If I guessed right, it should be after the newcomers introduced themselves that every word the evolutionaries said was heard by the oil portraits... Thinking of this, Pan Cui turned the page back in the book, and in "Speculation "Under the title, write down your thoughts.

Fortunately, they can still communicate with pen and paper, otherwise they will be worried.

Not far from Scott, Lin Sanjiu, who was chatting with Kate, suddenly turned his head and gestured to Pan Cui, as if he wanted a notebook—it was just such a simple action, but Lin Sanjiu When the wine is made, it looks particularly neat and smooth.

When she lowered her head to write, Pan Cui couldn't help but glanced at her several times.

Kate’s voice continued to drift out from the portrait, but the content was not rich in gold, it was all gossip; Lin Sanjiu hummed a few times to deal with her while writing——she was standing tall in the cave in the mountainside , with light on his shoulders, and shadows under his feet, it seems to be a strange painting in itself.

When the notebook was handed over again, Pan Cui found that she had written two new clues: [-]. Kate said that she was spilled wine by a servant, and there were stains in her portrait; [-]. I don’t know if it was a monologue Still during the conversation, Lei Wen raised the question of "why no anti-monitoring measures were put in place".

Wait, that is to say, anti-monitoring measures are generally used at gatherings...

Pan Cui did not forget to smile at Lin Sanjiu first, expressing her gratitude to her silently, and then bowed her head to think about the new clue for a while.

It's a pity that there are still too few clues, one here and one here, and it is still difficult for her to connect a logical line between the clues.

It's not enough for her to collect clues by herself. Lin Sanjiu has good judgment and a very cooperative spirit. With her here, they should be able to leave here together, right?Pina is also reliable, as for Jia Jiatian...

At this moment, Scott's portrait paused, and from the background sound, it seemed that he was thirsty and took a sip of his drink.

"Scott," Pan Cui seized the opportunity, pressed the wound on his neck, and interjected as calmly as possible: "You are well-informed and experienced, can you tell me, when Peter talked about the latest theory, mentioned I said something that happened before... I'm new here and I don't know the situation, can I ask what happened before?"

She dared not ask what the "latest theory" was, for she feared it was something new people should already know.

Although I don't understand why, this party of six seems to hope to recruit new people, and is full of vigilance against them—under the circumstances that are already difficult to grasp, Pan Cui has not forgotten that Peter seems to have another plan, It is possible to give Scott a certain ability.

"Although Peter doesn't like to mention it, I don't think there is anything to hide about those things. After all, we want to ensure that the same thing will not happen again in the future, so everyone has to know about it and learn from it." Scott didn't even He wanted to cover up, but his frank attitude surprised Pan Cui. "To be honest, you are not the first batch of recruits. At first, only Peter and Minna realized the truth. We all joined in later."

Pan Cui quickly said "hmm", motioning him to continue.

"Before you, about half a year ago, we tried to recruit new people a few times... But it's strange, after they came to the party and listened to our explanation, they never came again."

At this moment, Pina also seemed to have got a new clue from Nika, and ran over in small steps, looking for Pan Cui to ask for a pen and paper, and hurriedly lowered her head and began to write.

"Why?" Pan Cui asked the portrait.

The thin and long face of the man in the portrait has been staring straight ahead, without even changing the position of a stroke of oil paint.But when Pan Cui stood beside the portrait and asked questions, she always felt that Scott's eyeballs in the portrait seemed to turn to her side.

"We were afraid of leaking the news at the beginning, so after we couldn't get in touch with the few newcomers, we started to find them in person. You may not know, but anyone who can be brought to the mansion on the top of the mountain to attend the party is through the introducer I have carefully reviewed the background and confirmed that there is no problem..."

"Hey, so I've been censored too?" Pan Cui asked carefully, taking a risk.

"Yes, of course I won't tell you during the background check. If you want to introduce new people to join the club in the future, you must also perform this duty...I digressed. All in all, when we were looking for people, we found that before The few new people who came to the party, none of them ever existed."

Pan Cui quickly repeated this passage in her heart to remember it better. "Never existed? What do you mean?"

"Those newcomers, we have known or heard of them before. They all have parents, families, and jobs, but when we found that we couldn't get in touch with them, we realized that, Except for us, no one in the world remembers who they are. In the world, there is no trace of their existence."

Pan Cui didn't know how to digest the news for a moment, she paused, and then asked: "So, Peter is so careful this time...?"

"Yes, Peter thinks that those few newcomers are likely to be 'characters' created to approach us...so that 'they' can keep abreast of our situation."

Could it be that the previous "newcomer" was also an evolutionary?It also seemed natural that they would disappear from the plot world after completing the plot.

However, even knowing that the evolutionists will participate in the party in the form of "newcomers", Pan Cui still doesn't know what goals they should achieve in order to successfully complete this road-the current plot is really confusing.

"This is difficult," Pan Cui smiled as nonchalantly as possible, accidentally shaking the wound a little, and feeling the blood soak the bandage slightly. "Besides letting time prove that I'm a real person... I don't know what else to do."

Scott also laughed, as if there was something only he knew about, but he didn't intend to tell Pan Cui.

Seeing that the conversation with him had almost come to an end, Pan Cui responded with a few words and walked towards Pina.

Unexpectedly, Pina found a lot of valuable information from Nika, and there was a large paragraph of handwriting on the notebook—"From the way of speaking, Nika seems to have a little ambiguity with 'me', right' I'm also very understanding, so Nika told me a lot. He said that the reason why tonight's party is so special is that all the newcomers who joined before and disappeared were taken away by 'they', and today Peter plans to use Use some special measures to protect us newcomers from being taken away."

Was taken away?Pan Cui frowned.

Scott clearly told her that Peter believed that the newcomer who disappeared suddenly in the past was a created "character"; but Nika said that the newcomer was "taken away"... Peter told the two different versions , or who is lying?

"When I asked him what the special method was, Nika didn't go into details. He just told me, try to relax and be yourself, and I won't be hurt, because Peter has arranged everything secretly."

When Pan Cui finished watching, Jia Jiatian happened to come over.

Their eyes met, and Pan Cui smiled at him, and handed him the book.She didn't know how good her acting skills were, but she hoped that what she showed on her face was the natural look she showed when she faced Lin Sanjiu just now.

When Jia Jiatian lowered his head to read the clues, Pan Cui could feel the smile on his face cooling down quickly.

Jia Jiatian did do her a favor, but she didn't remember that she asked him for a favor.

No, that's not "helping".

That was a hint, it was Liwei... However, Pan Cui had to put on an expression of gratitude now, and after Jia Jiatian returned the notebook, she had to find another page and write: "You will help me again. Me once?"

Jia Jiatian shrugged his shoulders, not even reaching out to take the pen and paper.

Pan Cui didn't really expect him to help, so she sneered mockingly in her heart.Just as she was about to quietly tear off the piece of paper, she heard the sharp voice of Lin Sanjiu gasping for air from the cave not far behind her.

Pan Cui's heart tightened, and she turned around hastily——Lin Sanjiu was still standing in front of Kate's oil painting at this time, leaving her only a back view.

On the oil painting, Kate, with a motionless face, laughed loudly: "Oh, I'm so sorry, I spilled water on you with a shake of my hand! I was spilled by wine, and you were spilled by water. We are really troublesome sisters." Difficult sister..."

She was sprinkled with water?

Pan Cui remembered the clues written by Lin Sanjiu just now, and immediately glanced at the distant portrait - sure enough, the sleeves of Lin Sanjiu's suit on the oil painting were wet a lot.

However, it wasn't until Lin Sanjiu turned around to them that Pan Cui finally understood why she gasped.

Lin Sanjiu's body was also wet by water.

　I have something to go out for a whole day tomorrow. I don’t know if I can catch up with the update. If I can’t catch up, I’ll make it up on Saturday... By the way, I saw Zhongya’s announcement today that it will withdraw from the Chinese market. It’s really embarrassing...
