Absurd deduction game

The warm yellow light swayed on the screen, and the candle flames rose tremblingly.

The candle was lit like a fuse, and several soft sounds were heard in the room, and all the light sources in different positions were lit.

Suddenly, the private room became bright, and there was a translucent figure sitting on the couch, with his head lowered, as if he was paying attention.

Yu Xing and Xu Ying were only half a meter apart, and they could see that Xu Ying was a woman. The woman was not wearing ancient clothes, but a small blue dress. Her long hair was slightly curly, and was carefully tied into a princess hairstyle. The thin back drooped softly.

He suddenly found that everything he saw in his field of vision seemed to be shrouded in a dark frame. He could not see it in the dark before, but when the light brightened, this small frame became particularly obvious.

At this moment, the woman's shadow is also bound by the frame, looking a little dull.

Weird, Yu Xing thought.

Everything was more yellow than he imagined, giving him a strong sense of sight - he was in "memory".

Because when watching TV dramas, I like to apply a dark yellow filter to the memories to distinguish them from the normal plot.

But the problem is, he is not watching TV at this moment, but gets the same effect directly in his own eyes.

Goosebumps appeared on Yu Xing's arms, and he lost interest in moving around. He just stood firmly in place, as if he was no longer a human being, but a TV set tuned to the channel that was playing a TV series.

"The head of the Fang family seems to be upright, but I didn't expect him to be so cruel!"

"Yes, if Mingzhu hadn't brought Mingzhu to Buwangju for dinner, and my second uncle happened to know the boss, we wouldn't have known that Fang Deming had killed someone here before!"

"If Mingzhu gets married, he won't be beaten by his parents-in-law, right? I think Fang Deming looks like a feudal patriarch. Let me tell you... I just don't feel at ease if Mingzhu marries in such a remote town!"

There was a faint sound of conversation, like gibbering, that kept getting into the ears of the lying figure, and also got into Yu Xing's ears.

The figure of the sitting woman trembled, raising her hands to cover her ears as if to deceive herself, and lowering her head.

"Hey... after all, this is the old big family. How can I put it? We can't tell what happened to the older generation. At least that boy Fang Xiao treats Mingzhu well and is a good match."

"Haha, I don't think so. That boy just used his face to deceive a simple girl like Mingzhu!"

"I think Fang Xiao is okay. He cares so much about Mingzhu. He can make money working at the port and has a bright future! At least Mingzhu won't live in poverty when he gets married, right?"

"I really can't stand it. What age are we here, and this town is still so backward in thinking! It's just as lifeless as the Fang family -"

"Say less! Mingzhu is resting in the back. She was frightened by the news that Fang Deming had killed someone. If you keep talking, aren't you going to poke her heart!"

As a slightly stern female voice fell, the murmuring stopped.

Yu Xing heard a few new clues and silently wrote down in his mind - his cheap brother should be called Fang Xiao and works at the port.

Then...the phantom of the woman in front of him is his "sister-in-law"?

The candlelight flickered twice more, and the shadow slowly dissipated.

Yu Xing waited again, but didn't hear any news, so he determined that the past events caused by Huo Zhu had finished playing.

He thoughtfully moved to where the shadow was sitting just now, and sat on it himself. His palms actually touched the gentle body temperature that had not dissipated on the couch.

Well, it’s a very short story, but there’s not a lot of information revealed in the ramble.

A little speculation revealed that this old story was about a brother-in-law and his out-of-town sister-in-law who were about to get married. The sister-in-law's family went to Nanshui Town. It turned out that someone happened to know the boss of Bu Forget Ju, so they heard about Fang Deming's murder.

The sister-in-law was frightened, and her family members began to waver, discovering various shortcomings in the Fang family. In the process, the sister-in-law was particularly tortured.

She seemed unable to accept what she had just learned.

Well, maybe before this, the cheap brother Fang Xiao had always left a very good impression on his sister-in-law, and he even thought that his father-in-law and mother-in-law were kind and gentle.

Yu Xing cleared his mind and recalled the details mentioned in the ramble.

Some people scolded Fang Deming as a feudal patriarch, and said that Nanshui Town is a remote town. The implication is that my sister-in-law Mingzhu’s home should be located in a big city, at least much more developed and wealthy than Nanshui Town, so her family does not agree with her traveling far away. Marry, have some worries.

This aspect shows that the sister-in-law really likes his cheap brother Fang Xiao, and finally chooses to marry for love.

When Yu Xing thought about the fact that he even mentioned sharing a sister-in-law with him in his letter, Yu Xing felt the sadness of being an outsider.

Fang Xiao may like Mingzhu, but he is a pervert.

Presumably, the life of Mingzhu's sister-in-law when she finally gets married will not be as beautiful as she imagined.

One more thing, did Fang Xiao originally work at the port? There is actually a port in a place like Nanshui Town?

Yu Xing held his chin and thought. The port here should be just a small port connected to a certain canal, and the throughput would definitely not be large. Otherwise, this port alone would make Nanshui Town much richer.

Well... none of the intelligence collected by the deducers he had access to after entering the period involved the port, and what they saw did not look like what a port town should look like.

There is only one place that all current deducers have never been to, and that is the legendary and very dangerous East Area.

The port is in the East District, and then for some reason, the East District was blocked and became a forbidden place spread by people. Maybe the port is the source of people's fear?

Yu Xing sat there expressionlessly thinking about something. Some viewers in the live broadcast room who had just started watching the live broadcast asked in confusion:

[Where is this? Isn't it a live broadcast in Nanshui Town? How come it traveled to ancient times? ]

[It’s just an old-style teahouse and restaurant]

[Why is Xing motionless? By the way, I see the others are eating. Is he setting up a side mission? ]

[oh? Did you come from another live broadcast room? People on the first floor are really eating! There’s so much excitement here on the second floor that I haven’t paid attention to what’s going on in other live broadcast rooms]

[Why is the tone of this live broadcast room so weird? Now the system has a new function of turning on filters? ? ? ]

[Indeed, what hell filter]

[What we are synchronizing now is the scene in Xing’s eyes. It seems that this is what he saw. I guess it is a ghost that is immersing the atmosphere]

The old audience members explained it to the newcomers, and another one said:

[Absolutely, the four people in Medusa's group are in the same situation as Xing. They have all looked for clues in Yajian, and they have all started the "Old Things" side mission, but the flower boss and the rift...]

[It’s so scary over there, but so exciting (⊙▽⊙)]
