Chapter 483 Ten Days ([-])

When you are embarrassed, you need to change the subject most. As soon as Liang Xi hung up the phone, before Fanny could make a joke, he preemptively asked a question: "Hasn't the Kefu family's ultimatum to the Orphan Council expired for a long time?"

Fanny pondered: "As a middleman, I also don't understand why this matter has become very quiet. On the contrary, you reminded me that you said that part of the blood moon invitation may be related to them. Hey, where did you know of this information?"

This is the difficulty of anti-interrogation, what you know may be what others don't know.There is no way for the brain to classify all the information clearly like a computer.

According to Fanny, when the time for the ultimatum arrived, neither side took action.This seems to disprove Modo's conjecture that both the Kefu family and the Orphan Society have something to do with darkness.This old thing is really expected, and the essence can be seen directly through the performance.He should be brought to fight against Thresh, the proper nemesis of Thresh.

Liang Xidao: "In the circle, you can always hear some information. As an intermediary, what do you think about this case?"

Fanny thought for a while: "It's kind of weird."

"Strange?"

Fanny nodded: "I don't know how to describe it. We have judged that the person who killed Xiaoan was probably the female reporter's husband. But the female reporter's husband is safe and sound now, and the police have dispelled his suspicion. Although the female reporter's father is a bit strong, when Compared with the Kefu family, it is not at the same level. On the other hand, the Orphan Society also blames it, and has an indifferent attitude towards the ultimatum. This is the attitude from the beginning, not nervous at all, and there is no way to deal with it."

Liang Xi: "Do you feel that you are not valued as a middleman?"

"Your words hurt my heart, but it seems to be the truth. Except for the direct communication between Hannah and Mia at Bobby's house, I didn't feel that they cared much about it. An Zhishi's attitude is very firm. I don't understand the contradiction between the two." Fanny said: "I even thought that they bypassed me and communicated in private. The strangest thing is of course the husband of the female reporter. Is nothing wrong? I spent [-] euros to send someone to keep an eye on him, but he has no other reaction except that he is still immersed in the pain of losing his wife, and no one monitors and follows him."

Liang Xi asked, "Do you think your husband took revenge for the female reporter?"

"Of course." Fanny asked back, "Why not?"

Liang Xi asked, "But the man who killed his wife himself is still at large."

Fanny was startled, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly realized: "I see! The Kefu family doesn't care about the person who killed Xiao An directly, but the people behind him. Just like a husband doesn't care about the murderer who directly killed his wife, only Concerned about who hired the wife-killer. A husband is of no value to the Koff family, and killing him won't solve the fundamental problem."

Liang Xidao: "To further understand, there is no personal hatred in the case of Xiaoan's murder."

After savoring it, Fanny nodded slowly: "Hannah may be the most emotional person. Although the whole family feels sad about Xiao An's death, it can't be called sad. They care about Xiao An's murder not because they love Xiao An, but because Xiao An is the core of the family. Personnel, the incident must be traced. Not out of subjective emotional needs, but out of objective responsibility needs.”

After Liang Xiyi's analysis, Fanny solved the contradiction in cognition.Fanny's thinking is very limited, and she cannot develop her own views until a problem is solved.On the contrary, people like Liang Xi will ask questions, but they will not stop at the questions.The many questions raised by Modo are the accumulation of his detective career experience. As long as enough questions are asked, the truth will emerge.

Fanny secretly sighed in her heart, this time she went to Blood Moon to invite her, she could only be a vase.She has a good mentality, and she knows that it is impossible for her to be above the top of an industry pyramid.On the contrary, the tops of these pyramids go to other realms and can only be the cornerstones of the bottom.

Swimming with Fanny is very comfortable. Fanny doesn't flirt, speaks directly and honestly, and doesn't seem to have any scheming.Or just feel that there is no need to think about saying something to Liang Xi.Fanny has a lot of knowledge, and she is a real traveler. She met Liang Xi who read thousands of books, and the two chatted happily.Fanny knew about Liang Xi, but Liang Xi gained a lot from the detailed description of her personal experience.

Take the pyramids, for example.The ancient and modern culture of Egypt, as well as the culture of local residents, etc., are not much different from the information learned in Liang Xi's books, but there are intuitive differences.As a sensitive woman, Fanny is good at collecting feedback from the outside world.Fanny also has her own unique views on desert culture, humanistic philosophy, history and geography.

At [-]:[-] noon, the Beetle finally arrived at Bloodmoon Castle. Liang Xi gave this self-driving tour a nine-point score.If it wasn't for Fanny's existence that changed his attitude towards Thresh's bottom line, he could give him full marks.This kind of score is very dangerous. If Liang Xi and Karin have conflicts and quarrels in the future, and Liang Xi thinks of a relaxing self-driving trip, and meets Fanny again by chance, it may lead to the breakdown of family relations.Or the crisis of middle-class marriage is in the soul, not in money.

……

This invitation is not as grand as last time. Last time, many housekeepers and maids were outside to respond.This time, there was only one butler at the gate of the city. He walked to the side of the car, bowed his head and greeted the invitees politely, and handed them the keys.Liang Xi drove the car to the parking space in front of the main building, got out of the car and looked around, there were already several cars, all good cars.Forget it, there is a helicopter not far away, Bobby's bodyguard Pete is chatting with the pilot girl, who doesn't know what to say, the laughing pilot girl rolls forward and back.The girl's behavior in public doesn't mean how funny Pete's words are, but it can show that the girl has a crush on Pete.If it weren't for Pete's gravity, she wouldn't ignore her surroundings.

Pete has his own story. If Liang Xi remembers it well, Pete had a rich wife, but he divorced for some reason.As the biggest joker in the bodyguard team, Liang Xi likes Pete a lot.Strangely, Pete's best friend is the taciturn Pique.Maybe Pete is the bean, and the bean is known as a silly and funny person.In fact, Bean is not only a depression patient, he is also a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Oxford University, a super awesome man in science and engineering.

The chief bodyguard has his own story, and Fanny has her own story. Everyone's story is different, and everyone's life is different.It is said that when a person can realize this, it is equivalent to stepping into the most basic threshold of humanistic philosophy.

There is no one to receive, no one to help with the luggage, it can be said that there are not many staff members in the castle this time.But there is a fair amount of security personnel outside the castle.Liang Xi saw House poking his head out on the second floor, House waved to Liang Xi, and blew a kiss... Fuck, the man was dumbfounded when he saw Fanny.Liang Xi slapped his middle finger, and House left with a smile and went downstairs.

Liang Xi was picking up his luggage in the trunk. House and Fanny had already entered the living room talking and laughing. House didn't even greet Liang Xi.Liang Xi guessed that House had to show a general relationship with him first, and then copied the answer.

Anthony appeared right after, and when he saw Liang Xi, he bowed and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm very sorry about what happened last time." It was about asking Liang Xi to come to the bar, kidnapping Liang Xi to shoot a video and threatening Liu Zhen.

Liang Xi was very curious: "Anthony, is there any special reason?"

Anthony smiled wryly, and walked with Liang Xi and said, "My son got into a big disaster while studying in the United States. That guy not only helped me settle the matter, but also helped my son get a green card."

Liang Xi asked: "Why did you go to that garbage place in the United States? Any third-rate university in East Asia can instantly kill all universities in the United States."

"Boy, let him live in the most difficult place, so that he can exercise himself." Anthony briefly introduced why he helped House. As for what trouble he caused, Anthony didn't say anything, and Liang Xi didn't ask. This is a private matter, no Glorious private affair.

To say that Anthony can be forced to violate the principle, only children.

Anthony introduced the situation of Blood Moon, and this invitation is different.The entourage of the guests is not allowed to enter the main building. They live on the opposite side, which is the place where Liang Xi was invited to live when he participated in the blood moon for the first time.They cannot enter the main building.At [-]:[-] p.m., security personnel will install surveillance cameras to monitor every movement outside the main building.Starting at [-]:[-] tomorrow morning, guests cannot leave the main building, cannot use private telephones to communicate, and can use monitored public telephones.

The main building has all the supplies. The kitchen refrigerator on the first floor is full of ingredients, and a room on the first floor is full of supplies.Each guest's room is also equipped with a lot of supplies.

All above the second floor is closed, the second floor has been renovated, and two small rooms have been opened up to form a large room.In the back-shaped structure on the second floor, L is the guest room area, and 7 is the conference room, fitness room and other leisure places.

The biggest bright spot or dark spot of this blood moon invitation is that no one provides services for the guests.If you need additional supplies or requests, you can use the internal telephone in each room to contact 000.The telephone that can make outside calls is in the meeting room, and there is only one.

Guests can keep their mobile phones and computers, but the main building will block the signal at 8 o'clock tomorrow, and there is no network signal.If the guests really can't stay, they can go out to have fun accompanied by the staff. It is said that the staff will accompany them all the way.

Liang Xi entered his room 210 and motioned for Anthony to take a seat. Liang Xi said, "It sounds like we're about to release a secret."

Anthony: "Aren't you worried about silencing us afterwards for secrecy?"

Liang Xi: "With a high probability, it will not. If I plan to silence, I will divide each guest into a small area and put them under house arrest. Damn, who will be the chef?"

Anthony smiled: "We discussed this matter before you came. We decided to have a game of cards in the evening and distribute daily work according to the ranking. Cook, laundryman, etc."

Liang Xi supported and said: "This is quite interesting, what cards to play?" As a half-water magician, poker magic is the foundation.Not cheating?How is it possible not to cheat?Which of these people is the fuel-efficient lamp?East European agent Anthony, American CA senior agent House, social queen Fanny, and perhaps other powerful guests.There are also two bottoms: Chris and Poppy.

Anthony said: "Kenxi suggested playing Werewolf. He said that the blood moon invitation is a reasoning game."

"Kinsey? Kensey from Italy?" This guy is a detective, but he's good at fake cases and has a very bad reputation in the industry.

Anthony said: "Yes, and Kelante was also invited to participate in this blood moon invitation. It is said that Blood Moon promised to donate a sum of money to Kelante's hometown to build and improve roads, and build a central park."

Ke Lante retired to live in the countryside, which is similar to a natural village that has basically disappeared.A natural village refers to a place a few kilometers away from a small village where one, several or a dozen households live.The public facilities in these places are relatively poor, especially the roads.

Liang Xi's impression was that Ke Lante was full of energy and wanted to make a fuss when he returned to the countryside after retirement.Taking stock of all the guests, Liang Xi especially sympathized with Bobby who was fooled by him.Three detectives, two agents, and a little queen.Although Chris is an ordinary person, he is the representative of Thresh and has the privilege to communicate with the outside world.Poor Bobby, I guess he doesn't know that he is a little ant in this group of people.This can't work, no matter what tonight's game, Bobby has to get the last second.

Bobby can't cook, so he definitely can't be the last one, or everyone will live and want to die.Let's keep two and fight for three.

……

The guests this time are basically acquaintances. Although many people have never met Kenxi, they also know the ability of this little old man.No matter how bad an ordinary person is, he can't do anything bad.The most frightening thing is often a capable person like Kensi, who not only has the ability to do bad things, but also has the determination to do great things.

After the lunch break, the butler invited everyone to have afternoon tea at the restaurant on the first floor.The housekeeper specifically explained that this invitation is a current real case and needs to be kept secret to a certain extent.House asked how much, and the housekeeper explained ten days.

House asked, "Does that mean we have to stay here for ten days?"

The butler nodded: "This invitation will not deduct gold coins, only rewards."

The butler continued to explain the rules of this invitation.In principle, no one can enter or leave the main building within these ten days. If there is any inconvenience, you can leave the Blood Moon invitation now.At the same time, Blood Moon can take care of the guest's phone, assist the guest to communicate with their relatives and friends, and can also shoot a video and send it to relatives and friends to prove that the guest is all right.

The third floor and above of the main building are all closed, and the activity area is on the first and second floors. Only the meeting room has a monitoring system, and there is no monitoring in other places.The computer in the room can be used normally, but there is no network cable connected.At [-] o'clock tomorrow morning, the Internet will be disconnected, and the blood moon invitation session will officially begin.

The butler explained the materials in the cabinets in the room, and the guests could change the quilts and sheets at will, and also made clothes, pajamas and shoes according to each person's body.Blood Moon logistics are as good as possible.There are three troublesome problems, one problem is eating.One problem is household waste disposal.One problem is laundry washing.It is easy to handle the garbage, just put the garbage at the gate and have it collected by a special person.Clothes can also be improvised, anyway, there are several sets of clothes to change in ten days, so you don't need to wash them.Even meals can be handled. There are a lot of ingredients in the kitchen, including instant noodles, marinated and packaged steaks, just throw them in the microwave and heat them up.

Kensi suggested that we organize a game in the evening, and the last three will be responsible for these three problems.A cook, a garbage collector, a laundryman.

The butler took a positive attitude towards Kensey's proposal. He suggested adding some reasoning elements to let people with less ability do some chores so that people with more ability can concentrate on doing things.

Chapter 484 Ten Days ([-])

The butler finally informed that if there is an objective physical need, they can pick up the guests from the main building and send them to a specific location, and the other party will be arranged by Blood Moon.Special reminder, other than that, guests are not allowed to leave the main building, and do not transmit any information to the outside world.When he said this, the butler focused his eyes on House and Anthony.

According to the security personnel, there were two suspicious vehicles nearby, and it was planned to ask the police to assist in the investigation.I never thought that these two cars were all crippled vehicles.Among all the guests, the only ones who would do this kind of thing are House and Anthony.The housekeeper also wanted to meet with the two of them privately and ask what their intention was.

The car was deliberately exposed by House, and the intention was very clear.Davis once bought evidence of a car accident that killed 15 people 12 years ago by the current vice president of the United States. The purpose of House is to determine whether the blood moon has been retained.If there is a file left, he will hand it over. If he doesn't hand it in, he will have to act recklessly.After all, House is just an expatriate agency executive, and the boss behind him is the vice president, who may become the president in a few years.As explained above, we must prevent some things from happening even if we exchange fire.

House wanted the butler to have a serious talk with him. As a rogue, he asked the butler to give evidence that you didn't have a copy, and if he couldn't get it out, he would have other explanations.There is no way, my official is too small, and the orders from the top must be fulfilled unconditionally.In the blood moon, House was invited to be the younger brother, but outside the blood moon, the power represented by House was not something that the blood moon could compete with.

During afternoon tea time, everyone discussed the content of the evening card game.

Kensey, House, Anthony, Currant, Liang Xi, Bobby, Chris and Fanny are eight people in total.The steward is willing to be the referee.In the end, it was determined to be four rounds. The werewolves won two points, and the commoners won one point. Finally, the points were counted, and the last three were responsible for three tasks each.

Ke Lante seemed to be having sex with Kensi, and asked, "If you need Mr. Kenxi to be a chef, can you bear it physically?"

Kensi responded with a smile: "My wife loves my apple pie. Don't you know that I'm a culinary school graduate? I cook every holiday. How are you, Krant?"

Ke Lante responded: "I live alone in the countryside now, and my daily work is to clean up the housework and cook food. I like barbecue."

Kensi: "Me too, lol."

The last time the two participated in the investigation of the missing girls organized by Bobby, Kensi did not show up because of illness, and went directly to the hospital the next day.Liang Xi deduced from this that the two had a deep grudge.In terms of age comparison, Kensi should be four or five years older than Korant, who is around 60.There are two kinds of grievances at this age, one is very friendly grievances, sympathy and mutual arguing, I am used to it.There is also the unresolvable hatred, where the seeds of hatred are planted in a certain matter, because there is basically no chance of contact, so the seeds of hatred have been growing, and there is basically no possibility of resolution.

All people with ID cards, the afternoon tea ended in a very relaxed atmosphere.

Blood Moon specially prepared a sumptuous dinner for everyone, and all kinds of food filled the table.Everyone chatted and ate, and the butler accompanied the atmosphere to create a peaceful atmosphere.House and the butler met privately in the afternoon and talked for about half an hour. Outsiders did not know the situation, but judging from the dinner, their talks went smoothly.

After the dinner, some of them went out for a walk, some talked with their family and friends, and arrived at the meeting room one after another around nine o'clock, and started the werewolf killing organized by themselves.I just said that they all have ID cards, and no one wants to be the last three. Compared with the bonus promised by Blood Moon, Bobby and Fanny value this werewolf killing more.

In addition to them, Kensi and Kelante had already exchanged fire between their eyes. Obviously, the four rounds of werewolf killing had also become a battlefield they valued.The ones with the best mentality are Liang Xi, Anthony, Chris and House.It's just relatively good, they are all self-respecting people, and they don't want to be the last three.It can be speculated that today's werewolf killing everyone will play very seriously.

The butler randomly shuffled the cards and distributed them to everyone. Everyone looked at each other for a long time before looking at their own ID cards.Steward Instructions Set up two werewolves, a witch, a seer, a hunter and three commoners.

Liang Xi was dissatisfied when he heard it: "Three gods, how can two wolves live?"

It is indeed unfriendly to werewolves, and the good camp will not shout for werewolves, unless Liang Xi is a werewolf.

Liang Xiyi said that everyone instantly felt that the game was a bit uninteresting.Based on their understanding of Liang Xi, Liang Xi's behavior of self-declaration was very strange.Everyone can feel that today's werewolf killing is not interesting.

The steward explained that the objection was invalid, because the objection was made after the cards were dealt out, and justly reminded that Liang Xi had publicly proposed the configuration during the afternoon tea.Everyone wondered what the intention of Liang Xizui calling to catch the thief was.

Even more crazy is Chris, he is a witch, and Liang Xi died on the first night, should he be saved or not?Let’s not save Liang Xi. In case Liang Xi is a good guy, and his side loses a neutral general, unlike Kenxi and Ke Lante, Liang Xi does not hold any position among the eight people and has no hostile attitude towards others.Help, what if Liang Xi is a bad guy?Didn't he become an idiot once?

The people wearing blindfolds waited quietly, but no one made a sound. Some people began to suspect that the witch was fishing.Because as long as there is a guest urging at this time, it is equivalent to breaking the rules, and 1 point will be deducted from the total score.Civilians only get one point per win.

The housekeeper didn't expect such a dignified scene to appear in an entertainment game. Within 4 minutes, there was only the voice of the butler asking non-stop.

It was finally dawn, and the steward announced: "Liang Xi is dead, please explain your last words."

When she died, the witch considered whether to save or not.First of all, it is ruled out that Anthony and House are witches, and intelligence personnel will not spend too long thinking about doing things.Kensey and Kelante can also be ruled out, because they are seniors, no matter how active they are, they can't compare with their total achievements, and the number of contacts between the two parties is not much, and they mostly handle cases for judicial agencies, so they are not well-known. From Ke Lante's point of view, he didn't think about the value of 4 minutes.

Among the remaining three, Fanny's mentality should be that she would rather lose the game than maintain her temperament. Whether right or wrong, the little queen has the ability to make quick decisions.After all, to Fanny, this is just a game, and there is no shame in losing to these people.So Fanny can also be ruled out.

Bobby's position is very weird. If Bobby is a witch, he will save himself. If Bobby is a werewolf, he will kill himself first.Nobody saves herself, Poppy must not be a witch.

After excluding everyone, the only witch is Chris.

Liang Xi looked around, his face was changing, everyone waited patiently, and kept as serious as possible, treating others with a poker face.

Liang Xi's second thought: Who is the werewolf?

First rule out Kensi and Krant, they will kill each other, unless they are twin wolves.There is a high probability that they will not choose themselves as the target because they are twin wolves, because they have the arrogance of their predecessors.Thinking about it, the two wolves will choose Chris, Bobby or Fanny, and kick out the person they think is the weakest.Last night, the werewolf made a quick decision, which objectively didn't fit the configuration of Kelante and Kenxi, the old enemies of the two wolves.

Secondly, Fanny can be excluded, Fanny will not kill herself first, she will kill Bobby first, women are so emotional.Moreover, in repeated contacts, she found that she is willing to listen to other people's immersive speeches. Once she starts to analyze, she will be like a flood discharge dam and cannot stop.

There must be a wolf between Anthony and House, and House is higher in probability.Because Anthony still has a certain amount of apology for holding him hostage to shoot the video.But rational people are one-on-one, and off-site factors do not interfere much with them.

Nine out of ten people who will kill him first are Bobby, because Bobby knows his own strength best.

After Liang Xi figured it out, he turned over his cards. He was a hunter. Liang Xi said, "Chris, you poisoned Poppy to death at night. The remaining wolf is between Anthony and House. I will kill House, and you vote for Anthony. Referee, the hunter shoots and takes House away."

Bobby threw the card angrily: "Explode." Can this game be played?I didn't even know what I did wrong, and I lost without saying a word.

House was also speechless: "I said I can't kill him, he can help us carry the exile." As an intelligence officer, he pays more attention to strategy. Since Liang Xi took the initiative to make himself the focus of the first round, let Liang Xi be exiled in the first round. become the focus.Unexpectedly, Bobby wanted to kill Liang Xi, and House felt that Liang Xi was a valuable target, so he finally agreed.I didn't know that I lost so badly.

Ke Lante asked, "Chris, why didn't you save Liang Xi?"

Chris replied: "One reason I was worried about him killing himself. Later I figured it out. If Liang Xi died, he would at least have a last word. If he was a good person, he could tell some information. If he died the next day, he could only Leave without a word. Let me ask, how many people guessed that I was a witch?"

Currant and Kensi raised their hands together, and Anthony also raised his hands.Fanny didn't know at all, and she didn't know how these people analyzed that Chris was a witch.

Chris is an ordinary person, and Thresh is a planner. He is habitually thoughtful about things, and he cannot make a life or death decision in a short time.

Bobby asked: "Chris, do you believe in Liang Xi? Will you poison at night?"

Chris replied: "Liang Xi's flop is a hunter. He is a good man. I will definitely poison you to death according to his words. Even if he is wrong, it is Liang Xi's fault. If Liang Xi is right, I didn't do it. Civilian The failure was blamed on me. After I had been seen through by Liang Xi and kidnapped, I had no other choice."

Seeing that everyone was discussing about the same, the housekeeper said: "The civilians will each get one point, and we will move on to the next round."

……

In the second game, there was no off-site information from the first game, but the deceased was very strange, and it was Fanny who had been listening to everyone's conversation without chewing.After the butler announced the deceased, Fanny couldn't believe it: "Me? I'm dead?" Why?Why are you killing a harmless little girl?And witches, why not save a young woman?Do you want to use your antidote on the bad old man?

Fanny looked left and then again, but she didn't find anyone guilty at all. What should I say about the last words?Fanny thought for a long time: "I am a prophet. I checked Bobby's identity and he is a good person." After finishing her last words, she walked to the side and sat down.

Everyone has their own thoughts and no expression.Kerant and Kensey spoke first, they didn't talk much, and they didn't have a clear attitude.

Chris said: "I think the one who can accurately kill Fanny should be one of the detectives. Rational analysis shows that Fanny's killing value is not wasted..."

Fanny glared, although it is true, but don't say it.

Chris said: "Unless the werewolf finds out that Fanny has an identity. Someone observed the expression and found that Fanny got an identity card. I think the werewolf should be one of Kensi, Krant, and Liang Xi."

Bobby pointed at Liang Xi: "Only he, only he would be so bad. Believe me, everyone present except him is a gentleman, how could he kill a beautiful little girl?"

Fanny was about to send the electric eye, and Bobby continued: "She is still so ignorant, only he can do it."

Fanny burst into tears, she shouldn't have participated in the damn game.

Liang Xi finally spoke: "I agree with what Chris said, one of the three of us is a werewolf. It is better to choose one of the three than to choose one of the two. I think there must be a wolf between House and Anthony. The reason is the gentlemanly demeanor mentioned by Bobby .To be reasonable, I also have a gentleman's demeanor on the surface. Anthony and House will never stop because of the gentleman's demeanor. I personally think it is Anthony, why? Let me explain."

Liang Xidao: "A detective Wolf found out that Fanny had an identity and wanted to kill Fanny. Wolf B was confused about this. He didn't understand why he killed Fanny? But it didn't take much time, and the werewolf killing was over. , Wolf B obeyed the decision of Wolf A. I speculate that Wolf A is two famous detectives. I may be Wolf B, because I, House and Anthony will obey the decision of Wolf A. Chris and Bo Both are good people, the reason is that they will not observe and find that Fanny is a prophet, ruling out the possibility that they are A wolf. They are more stubborn, and it is difficult to be B wolf. I judge that A wolf is Krant and Kensi One of them, B Wolf is one of Anthony and House."

Liang Xi said: "I suggest casting Anthony this round and poisoning House at night. The werewolf kills one person at night. In this way, there are 3 good guys left and 1 werewolf left. We still have another chance."

So Antony was cast, and into the night, House was poisoned by the witch.The next day the steward announced: "Bobby is dead, and the werewolf is victorious."
