Absurd deduction game

There are only four residents in total, and none of them are alive, so this place is actually a ghost house.

But precisely because they knew this clearly, they no longer felt nervous about dealing with ghosts. After all, the unknown was the scariest thing.

"I have a question." Zhao Yijiu pondered for two seconds and took the initiative to participate in the discussion. "It is almost impossible for a living person to appear in the Yin-Yang Corridor. Although we don't know what is in Yin-Yang City, I guess there is no conventional life." people."

Yu Xing nodded calmly, and his inner activities were very rich - listen, the children have grown up, and they take the initiative to analyze things in a logical manner. As expected, Brother Jiu has taken on a lot of things this year.

Yiqing did not deny Zhao Yijiao's speculation.

Zhao Yijiu then continued, this time asking Yi Qing directly: "So the residents of the deserted house cannot be said to be 'alive' in the first place."

"So when you say 'not alive', do you consider it from the perspective of the inherent properties of the Yin-Yang Corridor? Or does it simply refer to the fact that in the second stage of the test, the residents changed from living to dead because they lived in an abandoned house?"

Yiqing raised the corners of his lips and revealed a somewhat unexpected smile.

He did not answer the question immediately, but sighed: "What happened to this world? Even half-dumb people who can't speak have become so powerful."

He looked at Zhao Yijiu's expressionless face and added: "Even if you are talking with an expression like visiting someone else's grave... I still feel that you are so strange. You are secretly studying behind my back."

Zhao Yijiu: "..."

Speaking of which, Yiqing "disappeared" with Yu Xing. After Yu Xing disappeared, when the Dead Island was destroyed, Yiqing, as a contracted ghost, could not leave and could only be left on the island.

It's also been a long time since they got along as teammates.

——Although, Zhao Yijiu felt that he and Yiqing were not close to each other in the first place.

He was not going to explain what he was studying secretly. He cast his heavy eyes on Yi Qing's floating translucent green shadow, with a numb expression of "You think you know the art of speaking well?"

Yu Xing laughed out loud: "Stop teasing him, Yi Qing, the question he raised is the key. Don't think you can get away with it by deliberately changing the subject."

Only then did Yi Qing sigh softly: "You have discovered all this... When did I become an intelligence extraction tool ghost?"

The Green Ghost, who had a little bit of resentment, glanced at Yu Xing quietly, unable to tell from Yu Xing's usual expression... what exactly Yu Xing saw.

He had no choice but to spread his hands and said, "Okay, I'll tell you."

The two concepts of "not alive" put forward by Zhao Yijiu are very different. If it is the former, then it has nothing to do with them whether the resident is a human or a ghost.

Because it has nothing to do with "plot".

Just like the old man outside who gave them instructions, he was definitely not a "living person", but it didn't affect anything.

And if it's the latter, the residents are supposed to be living people, but in the plot they become "dead people" because they entered the deserted house, so you need to pay careful attention.

"It's the second situation." Yi Qing said with a smile, "These residents can be understood as NPCs extracted from the living world by Yin Yang Corridor. The outside world in their memories is not Yin Yang City, but the real world. ancient towns."

"So the legend that the old man said, that the deserted house can escape from the world and bring eternal peace to the residents, is false." Zhao Yijiu's voice was cold and low, "The existence of the deserted house itself is a problem, and any image here may bring confusion. Come to danger."

"That's right~" Yu Xing snapped his fingers, "Forget for the moment that this is the test of the Yin-Yang Corridor, just treat it as a small simulation copy. These residents are the source of crisis for the gamers, but we have no system tasks."

He walked to the door and listened to make sure there was no sound outside.

The woodcutter went back to the room, the child was with the actor, and the other two residents never left the room.

Yu Xing said: "The old man asked us to stay here for a day and get in touch with the residents. Obviously we need to use this day to get something and judge something. We don't have leisure. The time is actually very tight, because after today, It’s unknown what conclusions and answers we need to give the old man tomorrow.”

"Even today, we are not necessarily safe. If the death conditions are triggered during the day, we will definitely suffer disaster at night - the woodcutter's four points of attention can be regarded as reminders."

"We should enter each resident's room to check during the day, right?" Zhao Yijiao raised his eyes and looked at Yu Xing with a look asking for advice.

With Yu Xing around, he was still used to listening to Yu Xing's orders.

"Yes, it seems that there is no fixed schedule today. In fact, daytime is our only chance." Yu Xing said such urgent words, but his body was very relaxed. "There are few people anyway, so I will make arrangements directly."

"There is no rush to go to the residents' houses. We need to search their respective houses first, find the clues left by the 'former overnight residents', compare them with each other, and confirm where the overnight residents died... No doubt, they must be dead, I guess the body is there In a well."

"Then we will contact the four residents one by one, find out their tempers and obsessions, and find out why they escaped reality and came to the deserted house."

"Then, find a way to enter their room and confirm their killing methods and conditions through the layout traces in their room. It is best to see if there are any tips on what can and cannot be eaten when eating."

"In addition, the row of rooms between the east and west sides is theoretically unoccupied, but the woodcutter has never mentioned it. I'll leave it to Yi Qing to check and see what's inside."

"The rest depends on the night. What changes will happen to the residents at night? Whether the deserted house will reveal its true face, and what benefits our arrival can bring to the residents. We will all find the answer."

Yu Xing leaned against the door, still looking lazy.

But a few continuous instructions directly caused the mystery surrounding the deserted house to automatically decompose, and the difficulty plummeted.

Yiqing let out a long sigh: "You are an interesting person, but you make other things boring. Alas... after you said that, it seems that there is no point in exploring this broken house. I really want to tear it down."

The name of the deserted house was promoted to Broken House.

After hearing this, the sky above the deserted house seemed to become darker.

In the exploration of deducing the plot, the most important thing is "direction", and Yu Xing can easily give the direction.

——Of course, this is also supported by hard power. If there are people present who don’t know the basics or newcomers with inexperience, Yu Xing will not assign tasks so simply and clearly. He will choose to guide slowly.

Or just mess it up if others are unhappy.

Zhao Yijiu stood up straight and looked at Yu Xing with a faint light in his eyes... In fact, he had always admired Yu Xing like this.

The same goes for Zhao Mou.

Because he is not good at thinking, he thinks smart people are very powerful, especially those as smart as Yu Xing and Zhao Mou.

When they gave orders very confidently and decisively, it was more like they were glowing, as if there was no problem that could not be solved in the terrifying world of deduction.

Zhao Yijiu thought distractedly, maybe he didn't feel angry when he realized that he was tricked by Yu Xing during the newcomer test at Qingyuan Pharmaceutical Factory because he liked and relied on this kind of person under the influence of Zhao Mou. .

He had even thought before that if one day he died in a scam by a highly intelligent person, he might not be too angry and would only feel that he had not lost unfairly...except for disgusting guys like the actor.

Zhao Yijiu didn't understand the emotion of "admiration" very well. Anyway, at this moment, he felt good and seemed to be in a good mood.

The next second, he heard Yu Xing say: "Come and take a look."

Zhao Yijiu, who was in a good mood, walked over with a straight face as if he was not in a mood as usual.

Yu Xing waved and asked Zhao Yijiu and Yiqing to come to the window.

The doors and windows of this room are all wooden structures, and the middle of the wooden grid is made of paper, which is the kind in TV dramas where you can poke a hole to blow poisonous smoke.

The clear paper would be very transparent if it could let light in, but the whole sky was overcast and the light couldn't get through, so the room suddenly seemed a bit dark and gloomy.

Standing in front of the bright paper window, separated from the yard by a piece of paper, the line of sight was completely blocked.

"Do you want to poke a hole in it?" Yiqing predicted Yu Xing's actions and threatened, "What if damaging something is one of the conditions for death... What should I do?"

"No need for me to poke it, it's already here." Yu Xing shrugged and raised his chin, "Here is this one. It looks like it was poked by someone who stayed overnight. The location is really good."

Zhao Yijiu walked over to take a look and saw an extremely hidden hole near the corner of the window frame.

The height of this hole is not low, and you can put your eyes up just by lowering your head slightly, which is very suitable for peeking outside.

This is reserved for night use. The woodcutter said that you cannot go out at night. This kind of snooping hole is the best medium to use.

only……

Since this hole was poked by someone who stayed there before, it has a lot of meaning.

"It seems that something happened to the former overnight guests that forced them to observe the yard in this way." Yu Xing murmured softly, "Were they afraid at that time?"

When the former residents lay down in this small hole and looked outside, would they have glimpsed the horror in the courtyard? Could he have been detected by something in the yard, thus precipitating his death?

Or, could there be another eye attached to the hole, making the overnight guests think that there is only darkness outside...

Then suddenly blink.

"Then I'll go back to the room." Zhao Yijiao's voice interrupted Yu Xing's thoughts. He came back to his senses and nodded.

The first thing is to search their respective rooms.

"Pay attention to the actor, I don't want to deal with any trouble he brings now." Yu Xing reminded Zhao Yijiao as if he finally remembered that there was someone next door.

Zhao Yijiu nodded silently, opened the door and walked out.

Yiqing and Yu Xing were left in the room, staring with big eyes.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Yiqing asked innocently, "I really have no more information to tell you."

"Then you go search the house too." When Yu Xing heard this, he made a farewell gesture unceremoniously and said with a half-smile, "Whenever you want to give me 'internal information' again, you are welcome at any time~"

One person and one ghost seem to be playing a riddle about the so-called "inside information".

Yiqing didn't look at Yu Xing at all, and fled through the wall with a swish, leaving only the crisp collision of crystal jewelry.
