Absurd deduction game

After taking care of Zeng Lai's side, the only thing left in the library was the hysteria caused by withdrawing the eyeballs prematurely.

Books were scattered messily on the floor, which made the obsessive-compulsive disorder feel heartbroken.

Yi got up from the ground, looked at Xing who was leaning aside with his arms folded, and took two steps back warily: "Why aren't you leaving?"

He has already helped Xing with this, so he should still share clues with Xing, right? If so, this... this person is not a fallen person, he wrote his name upside down!

Why!

Unexpectedly, Yu Xing just glanced at him and rested his fingers on the side of his arm.

After discovering that a more violent approach to dealing with hysteria was more effective, Yu Xing decided to maintain this way of getting along with this person to save his worries: "Well... I still need your help."

"What!?" Yi was indignant, "What else is there!"

Yu Xing moved his wrists: "Find something to tie me up."

Yi: "...?" What did you do?

Hye suspected that his hysterical symptoms were beginning to show up, leading to auditory hallucinations.

"Tie me up." Yu Xing saw that his face was getting dull, and he repeated each word, "No? Tie your hands behind your back, and connect the two ankles with a rope to ensure that I can walk." It’s not fast…it’s not difficult, right?”

When he came to his senses, he thought to himself, "Am I asking you how to tie you up? I'm asking you why you suddenly asked me to tie you up!"

Yu Xing said: "Do you have a rope?"

Yi: "Yes..."

It was just an ordinary thin hemp rope, which he picked up while passing by the utility room.

There was no need to waste time. Yu Xing nodded with satisfaction and uttered one word coldly:

"tie."

"..." Full of doubts, Ye took out the rope and started to tie him up according to what Yu Xing said just now. When he tied Yu Xing's hands and wrists together, he said viciously, he should bring a rope-shaped sacrifice. Pin, let him tie her up so willingly, he made it impossible for Xing to break free.

Then...then kill the other party half to death.

So infuriating.

"Is it tied up?"

After a while, the ropes were tied around his wrists and ankles. Yu Xing tried to break free, but he didn't dare to use too much force, but he could still feel that it was very real to tie him up.

"Okay, what are you going to do?" Ye rolled his eyes.

"Take me to the lobby on the first floor and hand me over to the steward, and say I am the one who destroyed the sculpture exhibition hall."

The sculpture mark on Yu Xing's body has dissipated as the half-hour time limit has passed. I don't know if the butler can still identify him as the saboteur, but he just needs a chance to open up the topic with the butler.

The hostile mission is over, but his branch plot is not.

"It's you..." Zi Zizi knew about the destruction of the sculpture exhibition hall that was broadcast throughout the castle, and also received a reminder of a hostile mission, but he was focused on looking for a book suspected to be an employee's autobiography in the library and ignored it.

Hmm...did this guy in front of me do it? When I think about it, I think it's completely possible!

"Wait a minute, you want me to kidnap you there... Aren't you afraid of Alice..." Ye paused mid-sentence, thinking of the clues he had obtained, "Do you think that housekeeper will help tourists?"

Yu Xing didn't say anything, just urged him with a cold look.

…

So, a few minutes later, in the empty and bright hall on the first floor, the housekeeper, who was standing straight, saw this scene.

Two figures walked down the stairs one after the other. The one in front was tall, with his hands tied behind his back. He walked calmly. Although he was being pushed forward by the hands behind him, his expression seemed to say - can you hurry up? point.

The one at the back was mostly blocked by the one in front due to his smaller stature.

"Butler, this is the saboteur we asked for in the broadcast just now." Dai pushed Yu Xing to the butler and tried to say.

The old butler, who was wearing a lake blue suit, had a very good mental outlook, but that stiff face that couldn't smile made him lose the sense of being alive. His eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, and he said solemnly: "There is no imprinted aura on him."

"But half an hour has passed, and the mark must be gone. Doesn't it mean that the destroyer can get away with it?" He thought about the broken page of the book that he saw through Zeng Lai's eyes. He suspected that the source of the broken page was This housekeeper is currently hoping to find a breakthrough in the housekeeper.

The housekeeper looked at him lightly and bowed politely: "Dear tourist, you cannot prove that this tourist is a saboteur."

"able."

Yi still wanted to be reasonable, but Yu Xing spoke on his own: "I did it. After realizing my mistake, I was extremely frightened and frightened. I am willing to admit my mistake and receive the punishment I deserve. I hope Mr. Butler can give me A chance to make amends.”

housekeeper:"……"

Hye: "..."

Of course, Yi had no way of knowing what the butler was thinking. He only knew that he had been blinded by Xing's operation.

My dear, what kind of attitude does this high school student have when writing a self-reflection! Is it appropriate for you to use this attitude in a deduction that may very well cost you your life? ?

Yu Xing continued: "Before the alarm, I broke a total of twelve sculptures. After the broadcast, I panicked and broke another one. Mr. Butler, I have caused a lot of damage to the castle. I will not punish you. I have no conscience." disturbed."

housekeeper:"……"

The stiff face of the white-haired old man seemed to move slightly, and he looked at Yu Xing: "Yes, there are thirteen sculptures in total. I believe you are the saboteur."

It would have been impossible to count the rubbles on the ground if I hadn't watched them being broken one by one at the scene.

He stretched out his hand, took Yu Xing's hand from the surprised but did not show it on his face, and said to him: "Dear tourist, thank you for your contribution to the security of Alice Hell."

Since the time limit had passed, Yi didn't get any reward. He didn't expect any reward, so he just took the opportunity to ask: "Mr. Butler, where will you take Xing... the saboteur?"

"Leave it to Alice." The housekeeper nodded lightly, "Do you want to come with us?"

Leave it to Alice? Alice is now in the monster camp, and whoever is caught will die!

He frowned, feeling that he couldn't jump into the pit so hastily, and he suspected that Yu Xing's move might have hit the muzzle of the gun, maybe he was seeking death, so he shook his head and said: "No, Mr. Butler, you can just deal with it. "

The housekeeper didn't say anything more, but took Yu Xing to the stairs leading to the fifth floor on the far right.

Yu Xing looked back at Wei and told him with his eyes: Get lost, don't follow.

Yiyi let out a "cut" sound, not bothering to care about the tragedy that might happen here, and turned around and walked back to the fourth floor.

It's not reliable. This Xing is a little too confident. He should find clues in his own way.

…

The butler's hand didn't seem to be heavy, but actually pressing it on the rope restricted all the small movements that Yu Xing could make.

Without saying a word, the old gentleman took him to the rusty locked door on the fifth floor. He took out the key from his suit pocket and turned the lock with one hand. The rusty door squeaked and was pushed open. A small slit reveals the dark, lightless environment inside.

Yu Xing asked again: "Where are you taking me?"

"Didn't I just say, leave it to Alice to deal with." Probably because he recognized the identity of the saboteur, the housekeeper no longer treated him with the politeness he would expect from a tourist, but spoke in a cold tone.

"Pull him down." Yu Xing said, "If someone catches me in that half hour, I will still believe you when you say you will bring me to Alice. Now? Alice is unconscious, what do you expect her to do with me? .”

The butler paused in pushing the door open and looked at him.

Yu Xing's hands were tied, and the rope on his ankle made it difficult for him to walk, but his attitude was extremely good, and he showed an unruly smile to the old housekeeper: "I happened to meet her. ~Alice was irrational when she joined the monster camp.”

The housekeeper looked away, opened the door as usual, and pushed Yu Xing in.

"Shua——"

The door closed behind Yu Xing again, and the next second, a small flame burst out from the completely dark space, illuminating a small area.

Yu Xing paid some attention and looked around. The corridor he was in now was deep and narrow. At first glance, it looked a bit similar to the Rose Tunnel where Zeng Lai was.

"Are you afraid?" The butler holding the lighter in his hand was the source of the small flame. It was rare for him to take the initiative to speak.

"I'm not afraid. If I'm afraid, why come here and give you a head?" Yu Xing felt that the butler's hold on his wrist had loosened, so he turned to face the butler, easily broke away the rope, and took it from his trouser pocket. He took out the fire stick, quickly moved it in the air, and successfully lit it, "Use this one, this one will be brighter."

In the dilapidated corridor, dust was floating in the air, either static or moving. Yu Xing's face flickered behind the dust, giving people an unreal illusion.

The housekeeper looked at him and said nothing.

Do I need to "do something to trigger subsequent tasks"? A thought flashed through Yu Xing's mind. It was a bit funny. It felt like a game.

"I found the pages of a book hidden by a previous tourist. The content on it... If I guessed correctly, it was written by you."

Yu Xing was talking about what he dug out of the pillowcase in the corridor on the fifth floor while exploring with Zeng Lai.

[After everything is over, it returns to its original appearance. The sky is still the same overcast, and those eyes that are always watching the earth are still in the sky. I can't remember how many days I've spent without the sun. In the afternoon, Alice hired a third employee...]

The butler actually didn't know which page he was talking about, because there was more than one page in the castle containing this kind of information.

But this did not prevent him from receiving some kind of message. The white-haired old man said: "Couldn't it be written by your tour guide?"

The tour guide nun has not appeared again since she took them to the bedroom of the castle.

Yu Xing bent down and untied the rope from his ankle, then straightened up and leaned back lazily. The blood-stained sweatshirt was stained with dust on the wall, but he didn't care at all. In fact, most of him He always looks like he has no bones and just leans on whatever he catches.

"This brings up the issue of position, but before that, Mr. Butler, can I confirm something with you first?" He raised his eyebrows and said, "I know that you are very afraid of Alice, so I asked I want to get a chance to be alone with you that meets the 'regulations'. But I have to confirm...do you have the courage to resist Alice?"

The butler's expressionless face suddenly appeared as if he wanted to make some other expression, but could only twitch slightly. The coldness in his voice faded a little: "Tell me first, why is it me and not the tour guide?"

He watched Yu Xing untie himself and remained indifferent. He did not mention where to take Yu Xing to deal with it, nor did he refuse to say a word like he did when he stayed in the hall. Yu Xing's lips curled up, knowing that his guess was correct.

"Since Mr. Butler is patient, I'll just pick out the key points so that Mr. Butler can confirm whether it's worth cooperating with a 'tourist' like me." Yu Xing's posture was very relaxed, and he held up the fire folding book empty-handedly and smelled it. Feeling the smell of burning substances in the air, he sat dishonestly on the abandoned cabinet next to him. One of his legs was hanging down, with his feet on the ground and the other slightly bent, with his feet hanging a few centimeters above the ground.

"In addition to Alice, the founder, there are three employees in Alice's Castle, namely the tour guide, the housekeeper, and the chef. The chef joins last, and it doesn't matter who comes first between the tour guide and the housekeeper. What's important is that Alice Si obviously values ​​the tour guide more." Yu Xing glanced at the old housekeeper, "When the tour guide took us to visit the hall, his attitude towards you was no different from that of a statue or a pot of flowers. Obviously, she didn't think you were someone who needed her respect. Role."

"Under this current situation, I found that it was probably Alice who noticed that as a housekeeper, you still had self-awareness, or that you had the possibility of disobeying orders, so she weakened you to a great extent. With such authority, you can’t even do such a small thing as ‘providing tourists with a glass of water outside meal times’.”

The permission issue was something Yu Xing came up with while following Zeng Lai. Zeng Lai's temptation may not have been aimed at this, but the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional. Yu Xing was very good at reusing existing information.

He continued: "After we entered the castle, the tour guide told us that there are ghosts corresponding to each of us tourists wandering around the castle. If you don't think about this carefully, you may think it is just a rule, but if you think about it carefully, You can find out..."

"Why do ghosts appear, and why do they correspond to tourists?"

"If you want to be familiar with the sins of tourists, either Alice has the ability to see directly into people's hearts and quickly create these ghosts. But this is impossible - otherwise, she wouldn't be angry because I wore a mask. Couldn’t tell I was the one she was looking for.”

"Then, there is another possibility, that is, before entering the castle, we cooperated to do something that was enough to create a ghost."

He stretched out his hand and waved the dust around the tip of his nose, and smiled at the old butler: "Obviously, what we have all done... is to check tickets."

The tour guide held a pot of roses and told the "tourists" that they had to check in before entering.

The ticket checking process... let them drop blood on the red roses in full bloom.
