Absurd deduction game

The night passed quickly, and Yu Xing really fell asleep. In his daze, he seemed to hear the sound of the system ringing in his ears. It seemed that the second team had entered, and the current number was 5/8.

This was a good time to choose, at least he could adapt to the role quietly. If he entered the deduction when the meta-character was interacting with others like him, if he reacted slowly, he might be discovered by the evil ghost hiding in the dark.

Yu Xing turned over in his sleep, woke up briefly, and then fell into the thin cold quilt again.

People say that there is no need to sleep for a long time while alive. After death, you will sleep forever.

But he can't die, so why can't he like sleeping!

The next morning, he was woken up by Agui.

However, Agui seemed a little confused after waking him up as a habit, because they were all Dr. Cui's assistants. Dr. Cui is dead now, what kind of work are they doing today?

"Since it's okay, I'll sleep a little longer..." Yu Xing relied on the fact that he was a "wounded person" and wanted to lie down again.

However, the madam did not let him get what he wanted. After a while, the housekeeper with a proud face knocked on their door and informed that the madam had ordered them to help in the kitchen and accounting room today, and specifically named Yu Xing: " Xiao Jin, Mother Liang said that you are smart and experienced, so you can go to her place to help with purchasing."

"I know, thank you, Mr. Butler, and thank you, Mother Liang." Yu Xing showed a hint of happiness, but kept it down. The butler sneered: "Look at you, what did you look like before, and what do you look like now? You've really gone back in time."

Before the former housekeeper was kicked out by the master, the housekeeper and Xiao Jin had similar statuses. Now, one has become a powerful figure and the other has been reduced to being an assistant to the wet nurse.

Yu Xing ignored his sarcasm, cleaned herself up and went to report to Mother Liang.

He now knows that Young Master Fang has murderous intentions towards him. Although he doesn't know where this hostility comes from. It's just that someone created a misunderstanding and provoked a dispute behind his back. But he doesn't need to care about it now. Anyway... the Young Master is going to die. people.

After being shown the way, he saw Mother Liang in the garden. The sun had just risen. Mother Liang was standing in the garden picking osmanthus flowers.

It was the season when sweet-scented osmanthus was blooming. Mother Liang folded a dozen or so osmanthus flowers and put them in a basket, muttering that she would send them to Madam’s room later. When she saw him coming, she waved at him: “What are you doing so slowly! ?come over."

Yu Xing walked over obediently: "Good morning, Mother Liang."

"Good morning, I can't feel at ease at all. Each of you can make me mad to death." Mother Liang was still fierce in front of him, but this time it was not directed at him, but at Ahu, "Ahu That careless thing, if you give him a list to buy, he will buy the wrong thing, it is really not suitable to buy, and you will get an advantage."

Yu Xing smiled gratefully.

Is Ahu careless or there is another reason? He obviously prefers the latter.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that when the master asked him to take Ahu's place, Ahu made a mistake and gave Yu Xing a chance?

"I have to buy something again today that I didn't buy yesterday." Mother Liang carried the small basket, thought for a while, and stuffed the basket into Yu Xing's hand, "You send this to Madam, I'll go back and prepare some things. I'll be there soon." Let’s go and try to come back for lunch.”

"Okay." Yu Xing took the basket, the tip of his nose filled with the rich scent of osmanthus. He turned around neatly, showing that the injury was no longer serious, and there was only a slight bump in his walk.

The madam's and the master's rooms were connected together, and opposite was the young master's bedroom and study. When he walked over, the young master was reading in the study, and the door was not closed, only slightly ajar.

Yu Xing glanced over from the corner of his eye and saw that Master Fang was not studying hard as he seemed. Instead, he had his head lowered and his dark eyes were staring at him through the crack in the door.

"..." He pretended not to notice and knocked on Madam's door. After the maid opened the door, Madam slowly walked to the door.

"Why are you here?" The beautiful woman has a gorgeous face and a slim figure. Although she is in her thirties, she is more charming than a twenty-year-old girl.

Yu Xing considered his attitude and handed the basket over in an upright manner: "Mama Liang just picked this. Let me bring it to you."

The lady took it with one hand, her nails that were carefully maintained were crystal clear. She chuckled and said, "It's not bad, it smells very fragrant. Are you going shopping with Mother Liang today?"

Yu Xing answered every question: "Yes."

"Remember, you look good. You should do what the master told you as soon as possible." After the lady finished speaking, she turned around. The maid beside her looked at her carefully and gently closed the door.

…

The street outside Fang Mansion was very lively. It was the first time that Yu Xing got a glimpse of the normal appearance of the world. The pedestrians were rushing around, as if he had really returned to that turbulent era.

A batch of silk will be repurchased in a few days. Madam has very high requirements for the quality of the clothes, and there must be no mistakes in the patterns and colors she wants.

The designated shop was some distance away from Fang Mansion. Mother Liang bought some meat buns on the street, rented a car, and went to the famous funeral street nearby with Yu Xing.

Yu Xing was very familiar with the scenery of this street. When the Parallel Line of Death first started, he appeared alone in the alley.

However, this street is now full of life. Even though there are still white money floating in the air and incense candles standing everywhere, there is no feeling of weirdness or silence at all. Moreover, compared to the first stage, the scene here is a little more primitive.

Thinking about it, it's because Master Fang's ghost has been wandering with time for too long, and some modern things are mixed in his memory, which makes the created small world incorporate different feelings.

Mother Liang's husband also opened a shop on the funeral street, and spent all the money he earned on gambling. Even her daughter was exposed to this funeral culture early on.

In the car, Mother Liang said fondly: "Xue'er is very well-behaved. She is better at making paper dolls than her father, and she helped make a lot of money. It's a pity...his father didn't let her live a good life." ,I do not have either."

Yu Xing said with relief: "Your husband will understand you sooner or later."

After getting out of the car, the driver of the car ran away quickly. Mother Liang walked into a paper figurine shop and asked Yu Xing to follow.

Before Yu Xing entered, he saw many paper figures, large and small, all looking at him with empty eyes.

Among them, there is the ugly paper man in the first stage who is dressed in colorful clothes.

There were few customers entering the store in the morning, and the man in the store was busy sorting out the ledgers. Yu Xing recognized Liu Bingxian at a glance.

Mother Liang gave Liu Bing a lukewarm greeting and asked, "Where's Xue'er?"

"In the inner room." When Liu Bing first saw Liang's mother, an eager smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Didn't I just come here yesterday? Why is there... today? Did the money leak yesterday?"

Mother Liang laughed angrily: "I am just a money bag to you! I have no money today. All my money for a month was given to Xueer yesterday. Don't think about whether I have anything or not."

Liu Bing's smile was a little cold first, then he glanced at Yu Xing: "Who is this?"

"I'm Mama Liang's new helper, you can just call me Xiao Jin." Yu Xing introduced herself, and then Mama Liang shouted from the back room: "Don't hang around outside, come in!"

Of course, this was not meant for Liu Bingxian. Yu Xing obediently walked into the small door at the back of the store and pushed it open.

Inside the door was a small, cramped space with only a wooden table and a wooden chair. A dozen or so untied paper figures fell to the ground. A long-haired girl sat on the wooden chair, using tools to help. A paper man made an arm.

Yu Xing's arrival attracted the girl's attention. She looked up and was a little surprised to see that this time it was not the big brother her mother usually brought with her.

"This is?"

Mother Liang stood aside and did not answer. Instead, she handed her the meat buns she bought: "You haven't had breakfast yet? Eat it while it's hot. Mom just bought it."

She turned to Yu Xing and said, "This is my daughter, Liu Xue."

Then he said to Liu Xue, who was wiping his hands clean and holding the meat buns and eating them with relish: "This is my bride's helper. You can call him Xiao Jin. This kid works quickly and is very smart."

"Xiao Jin... hello, brother." Liu Xue looked at Yu Xing. For some reason, she subconsciously didn't want to nibble the buns so roughly. Her face turned red, and then she lowered her head.

"Hello." Yu Xing showed Xiao Jin's good disguise and smiled.

"Xue'er, mom just stopped by to see you again. Don't make yourself miserable. The money I gave you is in the hope that you will live a better life. Don't give it to Liu Bingxian, that old gambling dog!" Mother Liang's always strong look Liu Xue showed a rare expression of concern here. She gave a few more instructions and left with Yu Xing.

He keenly noticed that when he stepped out of the store door, Liu Xue seemed to poke her head out and take a look at him.

"..."

As an old monster with a very powerful ability to control people's hearts, Yu Xing instantly understood what the lady wanted him to do.

I'm afraid that leaving the shopping to Mama Liang wasn't as grand as the surface claim that she was taking extra care of her because she was a nanny. Instead, she had taken a liking to Liu Xue early on, so she asked Mama Liang to do the shopping, so she dropped by to see Liu Xue as a matter of course.

And he is the one...who wants to lure Liu Xue into Fang Mansion.

The master must have realized that Liu Xue was different, so he staged a long and circuitous play that would not be revealed, trying to use him to lure Liu Xue into the house quietly, because if he said it directly If so, Mother Liang would never agree if she loves her daughter so much.

The master's layout spanned several years... which was also a long time.

Yu Xing frowned slightly. Although he guessed the intention of the master and his wife, some changes must have happened. Otherwise, how could there be no trace of Mother Liang in the first and second stages?

Even in Liu Xue's revenge, there was no portrait of "Xiao Jin" in the mourning hall.

If Xiao Jin really used his feelings to deceive Liu Xue and let Liu Xue marry the ghost of Master Fang after his death, the person Liu Xue hated most would definitely be this scumbag like him.

After buying silk with Mother Liang, they returned to Fang Mansion before lunch.

Yu Xing was sitting at the long table eating, and found that something was wrong with Ahu's expression when he looked at him.

There was a ferocity in Hanhan's appearance, as if he was complaining that Yuxing had taken away such a good job from him, forcing him to do chores.

He and A-Hu looked at each other with a look of disdain, which provoked A-Hu to almost stand up and start a fight with him. However, A-Gui had the better eyesight and shouted to stop A-Hu. Many people looked at him. He, Ahu, then continued to eat angrily.

Yu Xing now has a leisurely job. After eating, she has no work for the time being. In the afternoon, she has to help Liang's mother count the goods and hand them over to various departments in the mansion.

Agui was assigned to work in the kitchen, while the other two young men went to the accounting room, and he was the only one in the room.

No one said that they wanted to change rooms, so the host probably didn't have the time to take care of such a trivial matter. The housekeeper was more troublesome than less, and it was annoying just to look at them, so Yu Xing got a lot of time alone.

He found an opportunity when no one was paying attention, slipped into the fifth courtyard, and entered the master's room with the master's permission.

At that time, the master was writing and drawing on a piece of fine white paper, as if making calculations. The half mask never left his face, and a pleasant voice slowly flowed out of his throat: "How's it going?"

Yu Xing replied in a snake oil manner: "Everything went well."

The master glanced at him.

"What happened last night?"

Yu Xing estimated that Xiao Jin's attitude towards the master should be a bit forbearing and a little fearful, rather than truly respectful. He adjusted the subtle expressions on his face and told the master exactly what happened last night.

After listening to this process, the corners of the master's mouth slightly raised, revealing a scary smile that showed that everything was under control: "Oh, it's the disobedient young master Fang who is protesting."

"Is it Master Fang?" Yu Xing looked very surprised.

"Do you know... what Young Master Fang thinks of Dr. Cui?" The master's tone was calm, and the pen in his hand was put aside for the time being.

"have no idea."

The master laughed softly: "You are not so stupid. Tell me what you think."

Now that the master had taken the initiative to fill in his character, Yu Xing still hesitated for a while, and then whispered: "I think it was the master who revealed that Dr. Cui's medicine was harmful to him during his interaction with Master Fang. Master Fang believed it to be true and became murderous towards Dr. Cui."

"You're half right. Are you afraid that I'll think you're too smart and kill you, so you're half wrong on purpose?" The master waved Yu Xing over. Yu Xing slowly moved over, and his chin was pinched. "Don't worry, it's exactly that. I kept you because I liked your brain. I would have killed you a long time ago, and yet you are still allowed to live till now?"

The master's hand was very strong, as if he was punishing him for his overestimation and self-righteousness.

"Young Master Fang is a smart man like you. He has known for a long time that I want his life, but he thinks that Dr. Cui is also mine." He stared at Yu Xing's face, "He can't touch me. I can only resist in this way, kill Dr. Cui and then put the blame on you, killing two birds with one stone."

Yu Xing responded in this controlled manner: "That young master Fang is really smart."

"But he is destined to be unable to escape." Master Shi Shiran let go, "Madam was watching him every step of the way, not even letting him close the door to the study. Last night, she was negligent."

Madam... As expected, Madam is an insider.

Yu Xing stood for a while longer, but the master lost interest in continuing to talk to him and waved him out.

The moment I stepped out of the door, the master's voice came faintly: "Beware of shadows."
