Absurd deduction game

[1. The Zhao family has many rules and strict rules. All the heirs and servants of the Zhao family must stay in the courtyard after dark and are not allowed to leave the Zhao mansion. 】

[2. There will be a sunny doll hanging under the eaves of every house in the Zhao Mansion. If you see a house without a sunny doll hanging, please don't approach it. 】

【3. The expressions of Sunny Dolls are all smiling faces. If you see Sunny Dolls with other expressions, please escape immediately to a house with normal Sunny Dolls. 】

【4. Do not approach water sources at night. 】

[5. If you hear an unusual voice speaking, please ignore the content and inform Butler Zhao immediately during the next day. 】

【6. Don't stay outside the room for too long, something will spot you. 】

[The rules of the Zhao family are directly transferred from the Zhao family rules by the system. They are the conclusions drawn by the people of the Zhao family based on their experience. However, they are also traps. Deducers are asked to make their own judgments. 】

A total of six rules appeared on the system panel as soon as Yu Xing entered the Zhao Mansion, indicating that these rules had begun to take effect.

In the meantime, here’s a special tip.

[In Zhao Mansion, the indoor part of Fengtou Town’s nighttime rules is still in effect. 】

Yu Xing blinked. In other words, Zhao Mansion could not block any rules from Fengtou Town, and more restrictions and dangers were imposed on it.

This was obviously targeted.

It's hard to say that he was targeted by something, but it probably had something to do with the reason for the formation of the rules. In short, since he has such special treatment, it proves that his previous ideas were not wrong.

The Zhao Mansion must have done something bad, or there must be some special items hidden in the Mansion.

He was ready to turn over the entire Zhao Mansion.

As for what the system said, these rules come from the Zhao family rules. There may be traps. You don't need to think about it to know. It should be the last sentence of rule five.

There is no rule given by the weird world that mentions a specific person.

Since these rules are imposing more shackles on everyone in the Zhao Mansion, it seems very ridiculous that Rule 5 should inform Butler Zhao of the Zhao Mansion of the abnormality.

This sentence should have been added artificially.

Yu Xing was an outsider, so he could see clearly, but the aborigines of the Zhao family were different. This sentence was written in the family rules, so they probably didn't feel any violation.

In addition, he was also a little curious. According to Rule 1, wouldn't it mean that Zhao Huaisheng, Zhao Zhan and Zhao Dongxue would be restricted in the Zhao Mansion and would not be able to go out to explore at night?

He knew that they would definitely use their own means to leave the Zhao Mansion, but since the rules were here, it meant that if they wanted to leave the Zhao Mansion, they would be in greater danger than others.

In the stage world, only the sedan girl played by Siren is subject to such restrictions.

Yu Xing thought as he walked forward.

Now he was alone in the courtyard. With only his naked eyes, he could see that the Zhao Mansion, like the Song Mansion, had many floor lamps lit in the courtyard, so that there would be lights at regular intervals.

So far, there is no rule that explains why these floor lamps are lit.

Yu Xing easily avoided the floor lamp, passed through the first courtyard with little information, expanded his senses, and explored each house.

Surprisingly, he collided with another person's breath almost instantly. When that breath met him, he was stunned for a moment, and then sent out a friendly signal.

The aura is peaceful, and it is also covering the outside with the purpose of exploration. Among the four deducers in the Zhao family, only Luo Yan can be like this - with the previous colleagues and contacts in Yejiangxia, Yu Xing's feelings for Luo Yan The smell is no longer unfamiliar.

Yu Xing immediately followed the breath and rushed over.

The two met in the small garden.

"Why are you here?" Luo Yan looked at him from behind the rockery, obviously surprised.

Yu Xing looked at him in the moonlight.

Luo Yan did not dress up like a wealthy family, but found out from somewhere a short shirt that was easy to move around, similar to the clothes worn by the servants in these mansions.

When he didn't come, Luo Yan was probably doing something with a clear goal.

"I came from Song Mansion. I wanted to meet you and exchange information with you. Why, I seem to have disturbed you?" He leaned against the rockery, his figure was lazy and his smile was calm, as if they were not in danger. The Song Mansion was doing deductions, but they were chatting at the resort.

Luo Yan looked at his smile and felt dazed for a moment.

If he hadn't been sure that he had recognized the wrong person, it would have been difficult for him to connect the smiling young man in front of him with the impatient "mountain monster" from back then.

How can I describe this feeling? It's like raising a hedgehog that has been pricked by thorns. As a result, the hedgehog went out for a walk and came back transformed into a fluffy kitten. Suddenly, the pricks were not at all.

Although this is just an illusion, a cat's claws are still sharp and even more vicious than a hedgehog.

He murmured unconsciously: "You have changed so much."

"Huh?" Yu Xing raised his eyebrows.

Luo Yan had no reluctance to mention the past. On the contrary, he was really too curious about what happened back then, and reminded him concisely: "Compared with more than ten years ago."

"More than ten years ago?" Yu Xing thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You remember it."

This kid has a really good memory.

"Well, that matter has troubled me for a long time. I didn't expect that we would see each other again under such circumstances." Luo Yan had a happy smile on his face.

At that time, he was still an immature boy. Although he practiced seriously every day and had talents, he had not yet enlightened himself.

Most of the ghost exorcism tasks are just homework for him. He has seen a lot of resentment and pain of ghosts, and also a lot of innocent sorrow of living people, but he is still a bystander after all.

He has always told himself that he doesn't need to worry too much, he just needs to do the things assigned by his master.

Because he believed that he was not old enough to sort out right from wrong and distinguish right from wrong. If personal feelings affected his judgment and took measures, not only would he be responsible for the consequences, but he would also definitely disappoint his master.

But Yu Xing's appearance was an accident within an accident.

After experiencing the experience of bringing something suspected to be a ghost into a Taoist room, Luo Yan suddenly became enlightened and was willing to get in touch with more individual ghosts outside of the mission, and developed a strange desire to win.

He thought that in fact, as long as he was willing to understand the mission objectives, he could truly distinguish right from wrong in the incident, and he could also make his own judgment.

You may make a mistake in judgment, but you still have a master who knows the truth.

It was with this idea in mind that Luo Yan's abilities skyrocketed after that, and he entered the deduction system before he turned eighteen. Today, he has achieved his current results and status.

Therefore, in Luo Yan's mind, even though he knew that what happened that day was just a small episode for that "ghost", it had a particularly profound impact on him.

He was grateful.

...Some even look forward to the "ghost" that they met.

Because the other person is really special.

Of course, Luo Yan also thought that the other person was actually a human being, and leaving the letter was just a nasty joke to make him think wildly and mock him for being nosy.

But so what? If there really was such a person, Luo Yan would definitely be curious about this person and want to get to know him.

Yesterday, under the water in the stage world, due to the urgent danger, Luo Yan didn't have time to react when he suddenly realized that Yu Xing was the person. After falling asleep for a while, another day passed, but he came back to his senses. After realizing it, I felt a little excited.

Memory can be polished, allowing an existence with special meaning to occupy an increasingly important position in the mind.

Over the years, Luo Yan has repeatedly thought about what happened back then, causing Luo Yan to pay more and more attention to it and become obsessed with it. At this time, he felt like he was chasing stars and achieved results.

When he looked at Yu Xing, his mind was slightly confused, but his eyes became more sincere. Even Yu Xing was stunned by his appearance.

Yu Xing murmured in his heart, he really paid no attention to the child with a cold face at that time, instead of enthusiastically accepting the help and teaching the child something, right?

Why are you looking at him like this?

"Although I recognized you, after all, we don't have much friendship. The look in your eyes gave me goosebumps." He simply said to Luo Yan, "Calm down."

"Ah, I'm sorry." When Luo Yan heard this, he realized that it was rude to stare at people like this. He subconsciously apologized and then explained seriously, "It's not that we don't have much friendship, that day was really important to me!"

In the live broadcast room, everyone was asking questions while listening to the barrage of the two of them playing riddles.

【What's the meaning? Did they know each other more than ten years ago? 】

[After all, Luo Yan is the strongest in the Luo family. Why does he feel so fishy? He never smiles like this in front of his family. Hey, he won’t learn from Zhao Mou. He will eventually defect from the family and follow Yu Xing. 】

[Luo Jue: Who is upstairs? Just wait, I will check you again. My brother Luo Yan has always been so friendly. Are you from my Luo family? Do you know what he is like in the Luo family? 】

Because this deduction involves both the Zhao family and Zhao Mou and Zhao Yijiao, there are too many people who want to fish in troubled waters. They plan to watch the excitement, but at the same time they want to muddy the waters and bring benefits to their own forces.

Similarly, there are many people who want to take advantage of the conflicts between the Zhao family and try to trick the Luo family.

But the Luo family has always been unconventional. Those who can be named are all weird and out of the ordinary. This method of estrangement seems to be completely ineffective.

Some barrages quietly fell silent, but more people paid attention to the current situation.

[Speaking of which, I'm from Yu Xing's live broadcast room. Can anyone tell me why Luo Yan is still in the Zhao Mansion of Zhao Mansion after more than two hours? 】

[I’m from Luo Yan’s live broadcast room. Can anyone tell me why Yu Xing arrived so quickly? Did he fly here? 】

When the two sides put this together, they suddenly felt that something was not right.

Why do people in each live broadcast room seem to think that the other party's speed is not consistent with normal conditions?

Fortunately, there were still people running around in various live broadcast rooms who jumped out and gave answers.

[Zhao Mansion is such a special place. Didn’t the eighteen rules be updated after eight o’clock? Fengtou Town’s twelve rules plus Zhao Mansion’s six rules, and then something else happened. There was a servant who worked in the kitchen. It was for the chef, but after the rules came out, he suddenly went crazy for some reason. 】

[The servant was crazy. He kept saying there was a thief and almost kicked open the door of Mr. Zhao’s room. Mrs. Zhao was so frightened that Mr. Zhao called people and tied up the servant first, and then wanted to find out what happened. Something happened. 】

[There is still such a thing, what happened next? 】

[Later, there was not much movement at first, but Mr. Zhao seemed to suddenly think of something and became very angry. He summoned everyone in the family, identified their faces one by one, and said that someone had sneaked in, and he was cursing. 】

[At that time, the four deducers here were forced to assemble. I saw it in Zhao Dongxue's live broadcast room. Mr. Zhao's eyes were so scary that he even stared at the three "sons and daughters" fiercely and asked questions. , thanks to their quick response, otherwise the secret would have been exposed. 】

[This matter has been going on for more than an hour, and I just let him go back to his room not long ago. I thought it was weird and didn't understand much. 】

[I thought that after the rules came out, all the players would encounter this kind of unexpected event. It was a fixed plot on the first night. Didn’t Yu Xing have it? 】

[No, Yu Xing and the others didn't encounter any big plot in the Song Mansion, and they parted ways soon. No wonder, I also said, how could Luo Yan be so inefficient, and he is still in the Zhao Mansion now. 】

After the barrage was half-understood, Yu Xing also inexplicably accepted Luo Yan's sincere and serious thanks, and forcibly stopped the other party's intention to inquire into his identity, and changed the topic to business.

If Luo Yan is so obsessed with the question of whether he is a human, a ghost or a monster, he can come to him again during the day.

At this time, they were standing behind the rockery that benefited the small garden. Not far away was a pond. It could be said that they were vaguely violating the two rules of not going near the water source and not staying outside the room for too long.

Although Luo Yan didn't seem anxious and didn't think it was troublesome, Yu Xing wanted to know the reason and get the relevant information.

After being ruthlessly interrupted by Yu Xing, Luo Yan couldn't help but take a breath when he saw that Yu Xing was slightly impatient but showed no signs of losing his temper.

This expression is right!

Of course, he knew the priorities best. Although he was still a little excited, he also called Yu Xing to take a few steps to the corridor. The corridor was close to the courtyard wall of the Zhao Mansion and far away from the house, which could ensure their conversation. It won't be heard by some Zhao family members who are not asleep yet.

"It's like this. I already found out during the day that the Zhao family, as the richest merchant family in Fengtou Town, has close ties with the government. Their business interests are very long and they have connections almost everywhere."

When talking about business, Luo Yan's face became slightly serious and returned to his usual gentle and dignified appearance.

"But the connections in the Zhao family are not entirely obtained through business cooperation and relying on the government. On the contrary, I found that Mr. Zhao has close private contacts with several other powerful families in Fengtou Town. I stole a few The letter contains a record of Mr. Zhao threatening the other party to give up profits. If the other party was unwilling, Mr. Zhao said - "

"Don't forget who your son lives on."

oh?

Yu Xing was indeed interested in this. He asked: "Which company is Mr. Zhao talking to?"

Luo Yan said: "The Sun family operates a relatively complex business. It owns a whole street of shops in Fengtou Town, so it has a very high say."

Sun family...

Yu Xing thought that there seemed to be no important clues related to the Sun family at present, but if what Luo Yan said was true, did the son of the head of the Sun family survive because of Mr. Zhao?

Is it because of incurable diseases or...

"In addition to the Sun family, the Song family, the Qian family, and the Li family all have similar correspondence with Mr. Zhao. The content of the letters is relatively small. I guess it is because they meet directly more frequently." Luo Yan said.

"These families obviously have a common secret. I suspect that their secret is related to the night-time changes in Fengtou Town, so I am investigating this aspect."

After hearing this, Yu Xing couldn't help but think of his hidden mission.

His hidden mission to seize the soul mentioned the conspiracy in the dark corner of the town, and the implementation of a big conspiracy is often inseparable from these wealthy and powerful people.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to support itself alone, without financial resources, and no matter how big the conspiracy is, it will not be able to be carried out.

And no matter how chaotic Fengtou Town was, there should be only one big conspiracy in the dark. He suspected that the secrets shared by these wealthy businessmen and his hidden mission were heading in the same direction.

Luo Yan's entry point is completely different from his, but they may reach the same goal by different paths, but the clues Luo Yan has are not enough to directly start the hidden mission.

"This is just my personal investigation direction. Since you are here, I want to tell you about the anomalies in the Zhao Mansion itself." Luo Yan was still typing. He seemed to have no intention of hiding his gains from Yu Xing, and wanted to share all the findings with you. Give them all to Yu Xing.

He said: "Zhao Mansion has a close relationship with Ye Jiang, and he is the type that Ye Jiang hates."

Next, he turned the topic back to the rules of Zhao Mansion.

There are Sunny Day Dolls hanging everywhere in the Zhao Mansion. It is said that an expert arranged them bit by bit after checking the Feng Shui for this big house. For this Sunny Day Doll Array, Mr. Zhao even spent a lot of money to modify the structure of the already built house. The layout resulted in the current renovated Zhao Mansion.

The meaning of the Sunny Day Doll is self-evident, it is to pray for good weather after the rain.

Luo Yan said that in Zhao's sunny doll array, the doll's concept of "sunny" has been taken to an extreme, representing "forbidden rain and forbidden water."

The Zhao family seems to be particularly afraid of a kind of ghost that is dripping with water. The servants will show fear at night and murmur a few words, "Will the water corpse come today?"

During the day, Luo Yan also asked the servants of the Zhao family about whether there were rumors about anything happening in the Zhao mansion. The servants at that time were completely clueless, as if they really didn't know if any strange deaths had happened in the Zhao mansion.

But at night, the servant's memory seemed to be opened. He took the opportunity to question the same servants again, and this time he got a lot more information.

The servant was forced to come out of the room at that time. He was very scared. When he answered his questions, he was trembling. He said that the Zhao family was really evil and would drown people after a while. He was suppressed by Mr. Zhao again. What was even weirder Yes, it won't take long for these servants to forget about the dead, as if they were possessed by evil spirits.

Luo Yan only found out about the "water corpse" at this time.

"Drown? Water corpse? Do you think this kind of 'water corpse' is directly related to Ye Jiang and is retaliating against the Zhao family?" Yu Xing interrupted the question at the right time.

He had just heard about this kind of ghost from Xiao Yulan, and had judged that if he wanted to avoid being targeted by such a ghost that could enter the house directly, he must light a lantern outside the yard.

However, the Zhao Mansion obviously also lit lanterns, but this protective measure failed.

There must be other factors involved, but there is no need to think about it for now - Yu Xing has already understood the origin of the Sunny Baby from Luo Yan's few words.

Because I don’t want “water”, I have to use the Sunny Baby to expel water-related concepts from my house.

Of course, ordinary dolls don't have such strong power, but special formations can do it. Yu Xing couldn't help but think of the bone bell formation in the backyard of Yizhuang in the stage world.

"Expert", could it be Master Wanba? Because the waiter at the restaurant mentioned that many wealthy businessmen would ask Master Wanban some questions when Master Feng celebrates his birthday.

If Mr. Zhao asked Master Wanban for this formation in order to save his life, the logic of cause and effect would be reasonable.

"That's right." Luo Yan said, his eyes falling on the eaves of the nearest room.

A small pale Sunny Day doll hangs on it. As the wind blows, it will sway around and around. The side with the expression on it is like the Sunny Day doll's face. When you look closely, , there will be a feeling that the sunny day doll is turning its head.

Very evil.

At this time, the Sunny Girl happened to be facing the two people who were plotting in the corridor.

The crooked smile makes people shudder.

"Before eight o'clock, the deducer in the Zhao Mansion received a mission to go to the kitchen to find food." He looked at the doll, with condensation in his eyes, "At that time, I felt that the sight of these dolls was like reality. It's like they're really 'seeing'."

"But I soon discovered that Sunny Baby's sight was not directed at us, or rather, it was not just directed at us."

While doing the task of finding food, Luo Yan carefully avoided the sight of all Sunny Day dolls from beginning to end, and used some tricks to avoid them.

He is quite accomplished in formations. After completing the task, he has basically figured out the role of Sunny Baby.

"This formation is indeed powerful. Not only can it make the Sunny Doll's wishing concept compulsory, suppress the 'water corpse' so that it cannot kill people as it pleases, it can also use the Sunny Doll to observe ghosts, but only for water corpses. Luo Yan blinked, and in the darkness, the sunny doll facing them seemed to blink too.

"If a water corpse appears nearby, or has locked a certain house and is about to appear, the Sunny Baby's expression will turn into a crying face."

"If someone finds that the Sunny Day doll is missing somewhere, it means that there is a very powerful water corpse here, and the doll cannot suppress it. At this time, he has to run away quickly and go to other dolls. If he comes a few more times, the powerful water corpse will also appear. You may not be willing to chase people again.”

It is precisely because of the existence of this large formation that the Zhao Mansion can barely maintain the frequency of one person dying every two or three days, and all of them are servants.

After Yu Xing listened, he found that the rules of Zhao Mansion were much simpler than those of Fengtou Town. There were basically no mistakes. At least the two related to Sunny Day Baby could really save people's lives.

Luo Yan said it in such detail. It would be impossible to draw these conclusions without personal experience.

It seemed that Luo Yan had a very fulfilling two hours in Zhao Mansion.

Yu Xing praised, and Luo Yan suddenly laughed and said: "It's not that I was chased, it's probably because I'm not from the Zhao family, and my hatred value is not as high as theirs. When the water corpse came, it went straight to Zhao Zhan."

Then he watched all the way.

He felt that there must be one unlucky person among himself or the three members of the Zhao family, or that this bad luck was the result of the joint efforts of the four of them——

In order to complete the task, they went to the kitchen one by one to steal food and feed themselves. He didn't believe that the servant who helped in the kitchen during the day suddenly went crazy and shouted about being a thief, which had nothing to do with them.

It was they who caused this servant's madness, which almost caused the room of Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao to be broken open, and later Mr. Zhao wanted to catch the outsider who had sneaked into the house.

Obviously the family rules mentioned that you should not stay outside the room for a long time, but Mr. Zhao seemed to ignore everything and would rather violate the family rules and take the risk than catch the rats in the house.

As a result, their gathering led to the appearance of a large number of water corpses. After Mr. Zhao announced the disbandment, the entire Zhao Mansion began to swarm with ghosts, which lasted for more than half an hour and stopped not long ago.

Without this incident, Luo Yan would not have seen Zhao Zhan being chased by the water corpse, and would not have been able to collect precise information about the Sunny Baby and the water corpse.

Thinking of this, Luo Yan wanted to laugh a little.

——At that time, other members of the Zhao family were being chased, and several of them came out of their rooms, running around like a nest of busy ants. With Master Zhao's experience in catching "rats", Zhao Zhan couldn't let the Zhao family find out that he was not himself. He just didn't resist openly and acted like an ordinary person under the threat of water corpses.

If he had no friendship with the current younger generation of the Zhao family before, and did not agree with the Zhao family's way of cultivating talents, so he had to stay away from the results of the training, then...

Now, after knowing Yu Xing's identity, the balance in his heart immediately tilted towards Zhao Mou, who was a teammate of Yu Xing.

Recalling Zhao Zhan's misfortune, he sincerely felt a sense of schadenfreude.

This is rare for the upright and gentle Luo Yan.

After laughing, Luo Yan told Yu Xing about the incident, from the task of stealing food, to the servant going crazy, to Master Zhao gathering everyone, to the final water corpse attack.

After Yu Xingzai listened carefully, he felt more and more that Mr. Zhao knew a lot. As soon as the kitchen was stolen, he knew that an outsider had sneaked in. Not only did he summon everyone to check for unfamiliar faces, but even familiar faces were questioned.

The direction of the interrogation is not about who is eating secretly, or who is stealing food and doing bad things secretly. The questions asked are obviously to confirm whether these people are themselves!

This shows that in Mr. Zhao's understanding, there is a type of outsider who can look like a member of his family, even the children he is most familiar with.

Is the "rat" in Mr. Zhao's heart a ghost, or a strange person in Liangtou Town?

Yu Xing thought of the young man who slipped away from his hands again.

Dirty things are often called mice, which means they cannot be seen in the light. Mr. Zhao calls outsiders who sneak into the house mice, and he is obviously very afraid of them.

Coincidentally, the young man's ability was related to mice. Yu Xing naturally knew that the mice that Mr. Zhao wanted to catch were actually the four deducers who stole food, but this did not prevent him from thinking of that young man.

I wonder if that young man can disguise himself?

Or something more sinister - could he wear someone else's skin? Even if this young man didn't know how to do it, he should have at least heard of it, otherwise he wouldn't have believed it without any doubt when he claimed to be a fox demon with a dart's scalp.

Things beyond cognition are not so easy to accept unless you have really seen them.

There was more and more information in Yu Xing's mind, and several pieces were gradually connected together.

He raised his head and looked at Luo Yan, who had explained everything: "What were you preparing to do before I came? Also, where did the other three people go?"

"Oh, I want to record all the details of the arrangement of the Sunny Dolls Formation. I will spend time thinking about it tomorrow, and maybe I can find out the relevant formation schools." Luo Yan said, "But don't rush this matter, you can do it Well, naturally I will exchange information with you first."

It was said to be an exchange of information, but up to now he had been the one doing the explaining. Yu Xing hadn't said anything yet, and he didn't seem to be planning to ask.

"As for those three people, Zhao Dongxue plans to test the sleeping rules tonight, and they should sleep in the room now; Zhao Zhan and Zhao Huaisheng discovered that as long as they leave the house in Zhao Mansion, they will inevitably attract the attention and attack of ghosts, especially water. Zombie, so I simply left, because the water corpse will only move indoors, and you can get rid of it if you leave Zhao Mansion."

After speaking, Luo Yan blinked: "Do you have any ideas? Do you need my help?"

It was too obvious that he was giving away money for nothing. Yu Xing pressed his temples and thought to himself, what kind of mental journey has Luo Yan experienced in the past ten years?

It was clearly the other party who "saved" him back then, but even if Luo Yan was clear-headed and didn't think it was a favor, it wouldn't be the other way around, as if it was him who saved Luo Yan.

As for having such a high opinion of him?

"First, let me share with you the information I got, and then I'll talk about anything else." Yu Xing sighed.

As expected, he is better at dealing with some itchy children, and there is no psychological burden at all when he beats them up or deceives them. This kind of good behavior makes him unable to bear to take too many advantages.

After thinking about it, Yu Xing told Luo Yan everything except Xiao Yulan and Li Huaihua and the boy he met.

He thought, after all, Luo Yan had never left the Zhao Mansion, so it was inevitable that he had no idea about the outdoor rules.

What he learned, including the types of ghosts, their appearance patterns, response methods, and the authenticity of the rules, were all information that would be available to him sooner or later. What he gave to Luo Yan was just to save him some time in investigating in person.

Luo Yan, the chief of the Luo family, looked extremely serious when listening to the lecture.

The audience in the live broadcast room watched for a long time and finally realized where the sense of dissonance came from.

Luo Yan has the highest qualifications among his peers. Although he is gentle, he always has a kind of leadership that cannot be ignored, which makes people subconsciously convinced.

But in front of Yu Xing, the attitude he showed was clearly his attitude towards his elders!

The Luo family saw it clearly. Luo Yan had always respected his master and all his uncles, uncles, and wives. Now, he subconsciously acted like this towards Yu Xing.

How strange, the Luo family thought.

Thinking as fast as they did, they quickly came up with many speculations - could it be that Yu Xing was very old, about the same age as their master, and that Senior Brother Luo Yan was respecting his elders?

Could it be that Yu Xing also taught senior brother Luo Yan when he was a child, and senior brother Luo Yan just recognized him?

Could it be that Yu Xing is an old monster and a friend of the master, who hugged senior brother Luo Yan when he was a child?

Only a small group of people who knew Luo Yan best secretly gave Luo Yan a thumbs up.

[Senior Brother Luo Yan’s rank is still so high. 】

other people:【? ? ? 】

【What's high? Where is Gao? 】

On the screen, Yu Xing gave some simple information, but it was not enough.

He looked into Luo Yan's eyes and thought that it was really not easy for this person to be so lovable since he was a child and to have such an upright character.

After careful consideration, he also shared the hidden mission with Luo Yan.

In Luo Yan's current state, there is a high probability that he will not compete with him for the final reward of the buff, so even though this is a personal mission, Luo Yan can also be regarded as a teammate.

Luo Yan's ability to search for intelligence clues is not low. With Luo Yan's help, his mission progress should be faster.

Yu Xing and Luo Yan talked about the soul-stealing conspiracy in general, and linked it with the common secrets of wealthy businessmen such as the Zhao family. They also mentioned Master Feng’s birthday and the master Wanba hidden behind Master Feng’s name.

So far, I haven’t mentioned Li Huaihua and the boy with red cloth shoes.

Luo Yan was smart and quickly reached the conditions to start the hidden mission. Looking at it this way, the information exchanged between the two parties was equal again.

He was silent for a moment and thought about how to call Yu Xing before speaking, because in his heart, Yu Xing was both a senior and not a "person".

Two seconds later, Luo Yan decided to call him by his first name for the time being: "Yu Xing."

Yu Xing tilted his head: "What?"

"Based on your character, I should be able to tell that I told you everything just to make you think that I can trust you, and then share the hidden mission with me." Luo Yan put his hands behind his back and curled his fingers. .

He himself discovered so many secrets in the Zhao Mansion, and he had already guessed that there would be hidden missions. Even if it was not a hidden mission, it would be a side mission.

But he failed to start the mission, indicating that there were not enough puzzle pieces. When he shared the information with Yu Xing, Yu Xing's calm expression proved that the missing puzzle piece was with Yu Xing.

He exchanged information for information, which was a very normal and aboveboard move.

But Luo Yan also knew that things like hidden missions or side missions often had attractive rewards and were not within the scope of information exchange.

But he wanted this clue very much, maybe not for the reward, but just to get the hidden information.

Therefore, half out of gratitude and respect, half out of consideration for human nature, and the impression of Yu Xing as a "kind monster", Luo Yan made the decision to tell everything.

He shows all his cards first, or gains favor from the other party and gets what he wants.

Or lose all your pants.

——In any case, he is also the chief of the Luo family. He has already learned to have both feelings and responsibilities, otherwise he would not be qualified to represent the Luo family.

He didn't believe that Yu Xing could not think of what Luo Yan could think of. Therefore, what he could get depended on whether Yu Xing was willing or not. This was a gamble with a high chance of winning.

He felt that a "monster" who would let his wounds burst repeatedly in order to fulfill the good intentions of children must have his own set of standards and would not want to take his things in vain.

In the end, Yu Xing turned out to be just as good a "monster" as he imagined.

However, after achieving his goal, Luo Yan couldn't help but seek confirmation from Yu Xing, just like seeking evaluation from his master when he drew a spell he was not yet proficient at.

"Of course, no one knows what you are thinking." Yu Xing was amused by his appearance, "You are kind, but I never thought you were a fool. When I realized that I was starting to feel embarrassed, I know what you’re planning.”

"Besides, you do deserve my trust, right?" He spread his hands.

"I will share the task with you, will you grab the 'snip' from me?"

"No." Luo Yan replied decisively.

He was a little interested in the buff mentioned in the mission, but not much. He just wanted to get the hidden information to give himself an extra layer of protection in Limelight Town and make him less passive.

By the way, if you get more clues, you can help Yu Xing.

Yu Xing nodded with satisfaction, and then said the terrible words without changing his face: "That's right. If you answer 'yes', even if you are the chief of the Luo family, I will make you regret it."

Luo Yan: "..." A chill ran down his back.

They were lucky enough to have stood on the small garden corridor for so long without triggering any rules.

The two quickly decided what to do next.

Yu Xing originally came to inquire about the Zhao family's information, but now, Luo Yan has basically told him everything he wanted to know.

As for the secrets of Mr. Zhao and other wealthy businessmen, they cannot be obtained in one night. Unless you wake Mr. Zhao up, rule out any unspeakable rules about him, and then press for questioning.

Some things still need to be observed during the day.

So they decided to first reverse the drawings of the Qingtian Doll Formation, and then go to other merchants' houses, focusing on the ones that had correspondence with Mr. Zhao.

This night is destined to be spent running around. Deducers don't have a high need for sleep. Three days without sleep is not a problem. Tomorrow and the next two nights will probably be tied up with hidden tasks, so tonight I will go and collect all the scattered things. Figure it out.

So Luo Yan continued to release the perception mapping array in the small garden.

Yu Xing walked a few more steps and looked at the newly piled white mats in the small garden.

There are five corpses of servants here.

All new tonight.

One of them was the crazy servant. After Mr. Zhao confirmed that he could no longer control his emotions and cognition, he ordered someone to kill him.

The remaining four bodies were all servants who died in the water corpse attack before ten o'clock. They were both male and female. The corpses were originally lying across the Zhao family's yard, and no one would pick them up until tomorrow morning.

However, Luo Yan said that in order to cause Mr. Zhao to panic, Zhao Huaisheng made Mr. Zhao take the initiative to expose some information. After the water corpses calmed down and left, he took the body of the dead servant to the small garden and placed it with the servants.

Luo Yan agreed with this approach and took the initiative to find some white cloth to wrap the body.

Although the body was not buried, it was still more dignified than leaving it exposed overnight.

Yu Xing looked at the body and then thought——

People in Fengtou Town will turn into ghosts immediately when they die. It is very likely that they will turn into ghosts on the spot, or they will return to the place of death after condensing their souls elsewhere.

The ghosts of these five corpses are quite consistent...none of them came back.
