"It seems that student Qi Run is quite guilty. As soon as I turned off the microphone, he called you," William said without looking back, "Isn't it, Du Police Officer?"
"He's just worried that something will happen to you," Du Ruoxian said in a deep voice, "Isn't it you who is really guilty?"
"Why should I be guilty? Officer Du's hands are so steady that he won't cause accidental injury, but—" William let go of Du Ruoying and raised his hands, "Raise a gun at an unarmed and innocent citizen. Is it illegal?"
Du Ruoxian stretched out one hand to support Du Ruoying, who was about to slip, and held the police gun firmly with the other hand: "Innocent citizens? Innocent citizens who take advantage of others?"
"This is not taking advantage of others," William said, "Let me tell you some good news—Xiaoying has been injected with three doses of torture drugs, and now she is completely in a state of answering questions. Officer Du is so smart, You should know what a rare opportunity this is."
Du Ruoxian was stunned.
"You must have a lot of questions you want to ask her," William continued unhurriedly, "for example—why did she agree to be with me, why did she investigate the case without telling you, why don't you discuss all these questions now? Do you understand?"
"Such a despicable thing..."
"We didn't give the medicine, and we didn't kidnap her. We just came to rescue her. By the way, for the purpose of sharing her worries, I asked her two questions. That's all. Is this despicable? Who would Blame us?"
There was a slight shaking from the muzzle of the gun, and William knew that Du Ruoxian hesitated.
"One more step, and he will be able to fall into his control."
"So I said a long time ago that this is not taking advantage of someone's danger," William continued, "You did this because you care about her, and I can't be more clear about that."
The muzzle moved away slowly.
"Come, let her tell you the answer herself." The extremely gentle voice was an irresistible order.
"Then, obediently become my pawn, dear Mr. Knight."
After a short silence, Du Ruoxian put down the police gun.
"boring."
"Oh? You're not going to know?"
"Of course I want to know, but not in this situation." He suppressed the pain in his heart and said, "Even if it is for her benefit, I will never do such a thing against her will." After that, he Picking up Du Ruoying, he said softly to her, "Xiaoying, come home with me."
"I don't, I won't go with you, I want William!" Du Ruoying's face flushed like drunkenness, and her speech became childish, as if she had degenerated into a three-year-old child. "William! William James Moriarty! Why did you abandon me?"
"What did you say?" Du Ruoxian looked at William in astonishment, "Molly... Artie..."
Although he had already guessed in his heart, he still felt extremely unbelievable when the guess was confirmed.
William shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Student Xiaoying has already started talking nonsense, it seems that it is better to send him to the hospital for examination."
"Hmph, what hospital? You want to find an excuse to send me away, so you can go and fool around with other women, don't you? Don't think I really don't care, I'm actually...I'm really angry!" She suddenly lowered her head Clinging to Du Ruoxian's shoulder and crying bitterly, "I'm so angry, why am I so angry?"
Feeling her sobs, his heart throbbed faintly: "Moriarty, what do you want to do to my sister?"
"Let's talk about these topics on another occasion." William waved his hand to signal him to calm down. "I have a bad feeling that they should start cleaning up the scene."
"them?"
Du Ruoxian was about to ask in detail, but the room began to shake violently. Then, with a huge bang, the surrounding walls cracked, and the cracks were like black lightning bolts, which covered the walls and ceiling in an instant, and the space above his head Above, fragments of the concrete floor mixed with plaster ash and sawdust foam rained down.
"This house won't last long, so get out first." Du Ruoxian protected Du Ruoying's head, and ran towards the door, "Find a cover as soon as you get out, there are snipers on the roof at five o'clock."
"I know."
William was about to catch up with his footsteps, but unexpectedly, the soles of his feet swayed, and his whole body suddenly lost his center of gravity, and his head became dizzy. .seven
In the corridor, there was another explosion, and the huge impact directly hit him against the wall. He supported the wall and pressed his hot forehead tightly, feeling more and more chaotic before his eyes.
"At this time..."
Are you going to be left behind?
no, I can not.
With that guy's personality, he must be eager to save the kidnappers, and it is impossible to leave him alone.
"Hey, why are you in a daze? Get out!" Du Ruoxian's voice really came back, but it sounded like it was separated by a layer of water, "Moriarty, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell? Hey... "
Vaguely, William felt that he was supported by a solid shoulder, and was quickly dragged to the dazzlingly bright outdoor. The moment they stepped out of the door, the room completely collapsed.
But Du Ruoxian didn't go to the bunker immediately, because he was stunned by the scene in front of him——
The gurgling blood continued to approach his feet along the gentle slope of the concrete floor. The source of the blood was the five masked kidnappers. They were lying in an open outdoor area, but they were all smashed by huge concrete blocks from nowhere. Lost his head, lost his life.
Du Ruoxian didn't react until a bullet flew from [-] yards away.He dodged in time, the bullet whistled and grazed his cheek, cutting a bloodstain as thin as a silk thread.In desperation, he took Du Ruoying and William and crawled behind a huge concrete cylinder lying horizontally.
William opened his eyes in pain, and then looked at Du Ruoxian with great interest: "Why did you save me? You already know my identity."
Du Ruoxian wiped the blood on his face, and said calmly: "Don't get me wrong, no matter who you are, I won't die, and I'm still a policeman, even if you're guilty, the person who can decide your life and death It shouldn't be me."
"That's right, I'm the only one who can decide your life or death," Du Ruoying interrupted suddenly, "Will the bastard, hurry up and please me!"
Seeing her drunken appearance, William couldn't help laughing: "Student Xiaoying talks nonsense, and she really has a set routine."
"What nonsense? Your reply..." She was about to raise her hand in protest, but he covered her mouth.
"Shh, the enemy is still nearby, don't talk." He threatened her with a gesture of shooting.
Hearing the word "enemy", Du Ruoying immediately fell silent, she nodded obediently, and he let her go.
"What are you going to do next?" he asked.
"Wait here for rescue," Du Ruoxian said, "My colleagues will be here soon."
"You know that's not what I'm asking." William smiled.
"I... haven't figured it out yet." Du Ruoxian glanced down at Du Ruoying in her arms, who had already dozed off comfortably, "Moriarty, you are really the Moriah who fought against Holmes Tim?"
"Yes." He said frankly.
"Then - what about Sherlock Holmes, has he also come to our world?" Du Ruoxian asked.If Holmes himself is here, he has at least one direction to lean on.However……
"I don't think so." William looked up at the sky and sighed softly.
It is also located at a high latitude, but here is completely different from London. The sky in Beiyu City has always been very blue, as blue as the color of a familiar pupil, so clear and flawless that it is almost moving.
He had imagined countless times how great it would be if he could meet Xia Li again under such a sky.
After all, they fell together at the beginning, there is no reason for him to come here alone.
After coming to this world, William has exposed himself to hot news many times, whether it is burning the master's photo in class, or deliberately blowing up the inside story after the arson case, in addition to some necessary needs, in fact, he also has another heart. Careful thinking, that is to be able to receive Sherlock's echo.He knew very well in his heart that according to Sherlock's temper, seeing these news, it is impossible for him to take no action at all.
But after so many days passed, he waited for nothing except all kinds of insignificant villains jumping around.
Everything is so irrational that it seems like a dream.
Will it be a dream?
On the eve of falling to death, a dream at the dying moment?
If this is the case, does it mean that as long as the game is cleared, he can wake up from this dying country and return to Louis and Albert?Or can I just continue to be alone, wandering in this strange era forever and ever?
He watched Du Ruoying silently. At this moment, she was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed, her cherry lips were lightly pursed, and she looked very soft, which reminded him of the touch when they kissed. Dream.
It was three o'clock in the afternoon after the statement was recorded at the police station, and the sky gradually gathered dark clouds.Du Ruoxian had no choice but to stay in the police station and let Du Ruoying and William go back to school together.Fortunately, the effect of the medicine has worn off, and she has fully recovered.
"Student Bai Qirun said that everything for task four is ready, and all that remains is to press a button," William said to her on the way back, "However, according to the rules of the game, you need to press this button yourself."
Du Ruoying nodded: "No problem, let's solve it now."
"Student Xiaoying promised very readily this time, so readily—" He deliberately paused, "It makes me a little uncomfortable."
"Don't be complacent, we're just taking what we need this time!" She raised her head and protested to him.
"All right, all right, I hope you can have what you need like this every time."
"..." Du Ruoying gave him a blank look, "Speaking of which, I've wanted to ask you for a long time. You have such a high EQ, and you can make the canteen aunt who has never met so happy with just a few words. Why do you treat me so well?" What a shame, anyway, I am also the key to your resurrection, will you lose a piece of meat if you speak nicely to me?"
"I'm also thinking about Xiaoying." William smiled slightly, "If you talk sweetly to you every day, aren't you afraid that you will really like me?"
"Who...who will like you, narcissist!" Du Ruoying said angrily, and unconsciously quickened her pace to throw him behind her, but William stretched out his hand to hold her back.
A piece of warm body temperature suddenly stuck to her back, followed by his steady heartbeat.He lightly held her wrists, and whispered in her ear: "When Xiaoying cried and said that she didn't want me to fool around with other women, I felt happy from the bottom of my heart. I didn't expect to say no now." It's really sad to like me."
The heart seemed to be hit by a mallet, almost hitting the chest cavity.Du Ruoying froze in place, unable to recover for a long time.
sad?
This guy... Seriously?
Feeling her ever-increasing pulse in the palm of his hand, William showed a triumphant smile: "Since I met Xiaoying, I have often dreamed about you all night long. Don't tell me you really haven't touched me at all?" Other thoughts? Don't you ever think that in the sea of subconsciousness called 'dream', freely, privately, and completely irrelevant to reality, do something you really want to do to me—"
"Stop!" Du Ruoying broke away from him with a flushed face, "You, you... why are you saying this all of a sudden? Are you in heat again?" Doing weird things in dreams, why does it sound so similar? The plot setting that cannot be judged.
"It was you who said you wanted sweet talk." William shrugged innocently.
"Uh, uh... well... I just said it casually... just casually," she scratched her head with some excuses, "and this is not sweet talk, it's completely... malicious harassment, right?"
"Student Xiaoying is not satisfied? Then I'll change to another—" He smiled slightly, and opened his hands to her again.
"No, no, no need." She instinctively took a few steps back, while protecting her heart tightly, "Anyway, I'll trouble you to keep your mouth shut from now on, thank you!" Flirtatious, just three or five sentences softened her ears, and made her almost fall into it.She dared not do it again.
Sure enough, I don't deserve to enjoy his kind words...
By the time the two of them entered Bai Qirun's apartment, the blush at the tips of her ears hadn't faded away.As soon as the door was opened, Bai Qirun's eyes fell on her ears.He hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He led the two of them to sit down in front of a laptop, and then introduced: "Although it is just for you to press a button, it is not that simple. Du Ruoying, you have been targeted by STOS, I am worried They are likely to interfere with your mission four. So you have to listen carefully to the next plan-"
"Yeah." She nodded nervously.
He has been despised as a pig teammate by him countless times, and he must not make mistakes this time.
"I have adjusted the system time in a unified way. It is now 55:[-]. When it is [-]:[-] a.m., you can press Enter, and I will operate the computer in the next room at the same time to escort the operation of the entire program. Half an hour. During this process, you can no longer use the computer, and you are not allowed to perform any operations, remember?"
"remember."
"Brother Lian, keep an eye on her. This guy always likes to lose the chain at critical times." Bai Qirun said, "This mission is not a joke. The failure of the virus to intercept and spread is not a big deal. If the virus falls into the In the hands of STOS, things will be in big trouble."
"Well, I'll keep an eye on her."
After explaining everything, Bai Qirun turned and went into the bedroom.
The moment the system time jumped to four o'clock, Du Ruoying pressed the Enter key as scheduled, and at the same time, Bai Qirun began to quickly operate the keyboard on the other side.
Just when she thought her part of the task had been completed perfectly, the screen suddenly went black, and a line of text popped up——
"Do you trust Bai Qirun so much? You obviously don't know anything about him."
"It's STOS's conspiracy, don't worry about it." William grabbed Du Ruoying's hands as he spoke, lest she operate the computer when her mind gets hot.
"If I say that Bai Qirun is a member of our STOS, will you continue to trust him, Du Ruoying?" The second sentence only popped up for a moment and then disappeared, apparently successfully intercepted by Bai Qirun.
But Du Ruoying still saw it.
Immediately after that, a photo popped up. Although it only passed by briefly, she could clearly see that there were Bai Qirun and Yu Chen in the group photo.
Further down, the information that appeared could not be regarded as flashing, it was simply switching at a speed that the human eye could not adapt to. She resisted the urge to take a screenshot and stayed up until 04:30 in the afternoon.
At the moment when the needle pointed to 04:30, everything returned to calm, and even William, who had been holding her hands behind him, disappeared without a trace, as if he had never existed.
The bedroom door creaked open, and Bai Qirun came out rubbing his sleepy eyes, looking very disappointed.
"You... have you seen it?"
"I saw a little bit." Du Ruoying said cautiously.
"That--"
"Then I'll treat you tonight," she hurriedly replied, "but let's make it clear in advance, I only have three hundred left."
A gleam of light flashed across the obsidian-like pupils.
"By the way, there is also William." Du Ruoying subconsciously touched the phone, but found that the phone was not with her.It was only then that she remembered that Yu Chen had taken her mobile phone away during the kidnapping case.
Her heart suddenly sank.
"Hold it." Bai Qirun threw a matte silver-white spare phone into her arms, "Don't worry, the system will follow you, it's useless for them to take your phone away."
She took the phone, turned it on, and started logging into WeChat.
Unconsciously, a layer of sweat broke out on the palm of her hand, and her heart almost jumped to her throat. For the first time in her life, she felt that the process of logging in was so long.
until--
[System Message] Congratulations, the fourth mission has been successfully completed!The total time is 6 days, 8 hours and 04 seconds.
[System Message] Task [-] has been successfully unlocked, waiting for players to open it.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Start mission five."
As soon as the words fell, William reappeared on the sofa.
"Oh, I didn't expect to meet again so soon, classmate Xiaoying," he squinted and smiled, "I thought you were planning to wait until the next time you were kidnapped to call me."
……
She shouldn't have released this golden retriever with a poisonous tongue.
"Let's have dinner together tonight, I'll treat you," she pretended to be calm, "But——For Teacher William, please pay the bill yourself." After finishing speaking, she returned an angry smile.
"Eh?! I came to rescue you with a high fever. Is it too much to not even invite you for a meal?"
"You are a teacher who earns tens of thousands of dollars a month, and you let penniless students invite you to eat, you are going too far!"
"Okay, okay, can we wait until dinner is over before arguing, I'm starving to death." Bai Qirun said displeased.
In this way, the three of them had a small celebration meal at a barbecue restaurant outside the school gate.
"By the way, what's the reward for task four?" Du Ruoying asked while picking up a skewer of roast lamb.
William stopped cutting the toast, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes: "Speaking of which, the content of the reward this time is really strange--adding one to the charm value, does Xiaoying know what this means? "
"Pfft," Du Ruoying chuckled, "I know, it means you have become more handsome."
"I see." William smiled calmly.
"Come on, let's toast!" She happily raised her beer, "Celebrate the successful conclusion of Mission Four!"
With the crisp sound of clinking glasses, outside the window, the night rain in Beiyu City finally fell.
However, the other side under the night sky.
A blue-eyed young man with a short ponytail was staring closely at a scruffy boy in the room. The boy was restlessly lying on the desk, holding a crumpled English manuscript in one hand, and a mobile phone in the other. "No signal", there are a few lines of fluorescent blue fonts floating in the center——
【System Message】Task [-]
Content: With the help of Sherlock Holmes, the player personally announces the whole truth of the case.
Status: in progress
Time limit: unlimited
With the light tap of the skull ring, a handful of ash quietly fell into the cigarette butts all over the floor: "Tch, why is it so difficult? Just keep reading, keep reading! The case will be solved, right?" ? Is what I wrote so difficult to understand?"
"You asked me to read it, but look, Sherlock," the boy turned bitterly and threw a test paper at him, "In my English test, reading comprehension is zero, zero!"
"..."
"Hey, if I knew it, I would choose all C, so I shouldn't have believed the nonsense that three long and one short choose the shortest..."
"You still have the mood to reflect on the test paper," the blue-eyed youth looked out of the window desperately, "We have been trapped in this ghost place for more than ten days, if you don't solve the case, do you want to be Robinson Robinson or Friday?" ?”
"Blizzard Villa mode, I know," the boy shrugged, "It's a fully enclosed cram school on an isolated island. I expected this to happen long before I came here."
"Then why don't you settle the case quickly..."
"Don't worry, speak slowly, the translation software won't be able to respond." The young man said, "I really don't blame me, I really can't understand what you wrote, and I can't understand it after translating it, and I can't even read it. How do you want me to solve the case?"
"... Then you have to read it for a few days before you can understand it? Do you have to wait until all the people in the cram school are dead, and only you and the murderer are left, then you can understand it?"
"Hey, this is also a good way." The boy nodded.
"...God!"
"He's just worried that something will happen to you," Du Ruoxian said in a deep voice, "Isn't it you who is really guilty?"
"Why should I be guilty? Officer Du's hands are so steady that he won't cause accidental injury, but—" William let go of Du Ruoying and raised his hands, "Raise a gun at an unarmed and innocent citizen. Is it illegal?"
Du Ruoxian stretched out one hand to support Du Ruoying, who was about to slip, and held the police gun firmly with the other hand: "Innocent citizens? Innocent citizens who take advantage of others?"
"This is not taking advantage of others," William said, "Let me tell you some good news—Xiaoying has been injected with three doses of torture drugs, and now she is completely in a state of answering questions. Officer Du is so smart, You should know what a rare opportunity this is."
Du Ruoxian was stunned.
"You must have a lot of questions you want to ask her," William continued unhurriedly, "for example—why did she agree to be with me, why did she investigate the case without telling you, why don't you discuss all these questions now? Do you understand?"
"Such a despicable thing..."

"Oh? You're not going to know?"
"Of course I want to know, but not in this situation." He suppressed the pain in his heart and said, "Even if it is for her benefit, I will never do such a thing against her will." After that, he Picking up Du Ruoying, he said softly to her, "Xiaoying, come home with me."
"I don't, I won't go with you, I want William!" Du Ruoying's face flushed like drunkenness, and her speech became childish, as if she had degenerated into a three-year-old child. "William! William James Moriarty! Why did you abandon me?"
"What did you say?" Du Ruoxian looked at William in astonishment, "Molly... Artie..."
Although he had already guessed in his heart, he still felt extremely unbelievable when the guess was confirmed.
William shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "Student Xiaoying has already started talking nonsense, it seems that it is better to send him to the hospital for examination."

"No, no, no need." She instinctively took a few steps back, while protecting her heart tightly, "Anyway, I'll trouble you to keep your mouth shut from now on, thank you!" Flirtatious, just three or five sentences softened her ears, and made her almost fall into it.She dared not do it again.
Sure enough, I don't deserve to enjoy his kind words...
By the time the two of them entered Bai Qirun's apartment, the blush at the tips of her ears hadn't faded away.As soon as the door was opened, Bai Qirun's eyes fell on her ears.He hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He led the two of them to sit down in front of a laptop, and then introduced: "Although it is just for you to press a button, it is not that simple. Du Ruoying, you have been targeted by STOS, I am worried They are likely to interfere with your mission four. So you have to listen carefully to the next plan-"
"Yeah." She nodded nervously.
He has been despised as a pig teammate by him countless times, and he must not make mistakes this time.
"I have adjusted the system time in a unified way. It is now 55:[-]. When it is [-]:[-] a.m., you can press Enter, and I will operate the computer in the next room at the same time to escort the operation of the entire program. Half an hour. During this process, you can no longer use the computer, and you are not allowed to perform any operations, remember?"
"remember."
"Brother Lian, keep an eye on her. This guy always likes to lose the chain at critical times." Bai Qirun said, "This mission is not a joke. The failure of the virus to intercept and spread is not a big deal. If the virus falls into the In the hands of STOS, things will be in big trouble."
"Well, I'll keep an eye on her."
After explaining everything, Bai Qirun turned and went into the bedroom.
The moment the system time jumped to four o'clock, Du Ruoying pressed the Enter key as scheduled, and at the same time, Bai Qirun began to quickly operate the keyboard on the other side.
Just when she thought her part of the task had been completed perfectly, the screen suddenly went black, and a line of text popped up——
"Do you trust Bai Qirun so much? You obviously don't know anything about him."
"It's STOS's conspiracy, don't worry about it." William grabbed Du Ruoying's hands as he spoke, lest she operate the computer when her mind gets hot.
"If I say that Bai Qirun is a member of our STOS, will you continue to trust him, Du Ruoying?" The second sentence only popped up for a moment and then disappeared, apparently successfully intercepted by Bai Qirun.
But Du Ruoying still saw it.
Immediately after that, a photo popped up. Although it only passed by briefly, she could clearly see that there were Bai Qirun and Yu Chen in the group photo.
Further down, the information that appeared could not be regarded as flashing, it was simply switching at a speed that the human eye could not adapt to. She resisted the urge to take a screenshot and stayed up until 04:30 in the afternoon.
At the moment when the needle pointed to 04:30, everything returned to calm, and even William, who had been holding her hands behind him, disappeared without a trace, as if he had never existed.
The bedroom door creaked open, and Bai Qirun came out rubbing his sleepy eyes, looking very disappointed.
"You... have you seen it?"
"I saw a little bit." Du Ruoying said cautiously.
"That--"
"Then I'll treat you tonight," she hurriedly replied, "but let's make it clear in advance, I only have three hundred left."
A gleam of light flashed across the obsidian-like pupils.
"By the way, there is also William." Du Ruoying subconsciously touched the phone, but found that the phone was not with her.It was only then that she remembered that Yu Chen had taken her mobile phone away during the kidnapping case.
Her heart suddenly sank.
"Hold it." Bai Qirun threw a matte silver-white spare phone into her arms, "Don't worry, the system will follow you, it's useless for them to take your phone away."
She took the phone, turned it on, and started logging into WeChat.
Unconsciously, a layer of sweat broke out on the palm of her hand, and her heart almost jumped to her throat. For the first time in her life, she felt that the process of logging in was so long.
until--
[System Message] Congratulations, the fourth mission has been successfully completed!The total time is 6 days, 8 hours and 04 seconds.
[System Message] Task [-] has been successfully unlocked, waiting for players to open it.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Start mission five."
As soon as the words fell, William reappeared on the sofa.
"Oh, I didn't expect to meet again so soon, classmate Xiaoying," he squinted and smiled, "I thought you were planning to wait until the next time you were kidnapped to call me."
……
She shouldn't have released this golden retriever with a poisonous tongue.
"Let's have dinner together tonight, I'll treat you," she pretended to be calm, "But——For Teacher William, please pay the bill yourself." After finishing speaking, she returned an angry smile.
"Eh?! I came to rescue you with a high fever. Is it too much to not even invite you for a meal?"
"You are a teacher who earns tens of thousands of dollars a month, and you let penniless students invite you to eat, you are going too far!"
"Okay, okay, can we wait until dinner is over before arguing, I'm starving to death." Bai Qirun said displeased.
In this way, the three of them had a small celebration meal at a barbecue restaurant outside the school gate.
"By the way, what's the reward for task four?" Du Ruoying asked while picking up a skewer of roast lamb.
William stopped cutting the toast, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes: "Speaking of which, the content of the reward this time is really strange--adding one to the charm value, does Xiaoying know what this means? "
"Pfft," Du Ruoying chuckled, "I know, it means you have become more handsome."
"I see." William smiled calmly.
"Come on, let's toast!" She happily raised her beer, "Celebrate the successful conclusion of Mission Four!"
With the crisp sound of clinking glasses, outside the window, the night rain in Beiyu City finally fell.
However, the other side under the night sky.
A blue-eyed young man with a short ponytail was staring closely at a scruffy boy in the room. The boy was restlessly lying on the desk, holding a crumpled English manuscript in one hand, and a mobile phone in the other. "No signal", there are a few lines of fluorescent blue fonts floating in the center——
【System Message】Task [-]
Content: With the help of Sherlock Holmes, the player personally announces the whole truth of the case.
Status: in progress
Time limit: unlimited
With the light tap of the skull ring, a handful of ash quietly fell into the cigarette butts all over the floor: "Tch, why is it so difficult? Just keep reading, keep reading! The case will be solved, right?" ? Is what I wrote so difficult to understand?"
"You asked me to read it, but look, Sherlock," the boy turned bitterly and threw a test paper at him, "In my English test, reading comprehension is zero, zero!"
"..."
"Hey, if I knew it, I would choose all C, so I shouldn't have believed the nonsense that three long and one short choose the shortest..."
"You still have the mood to reflect on the test paper," the blue-eyed youth looked out of the window desperately, "We have been trapped in this ghost place for more than ten days, if you don't solve the case, do you want to be Robinson Robinson or Friday?" ?”
"Blizzard Villa mode, I know," the boy shrugged, "It's a fully enclosed cram school on an isolated island. I expected this to happen long before I came here."
"Then why don't you settle the case quickly..."
"Don't worry, speak slowly, the translation software won't be able to respond." The young man said, "I really don't blame me, I really can't understand what you wrote, and I can't understand it after translating it, and I can't even read it. How do you want me to solve the case?"
"... Then you have to read it for a few days before you can understand it? Do you have to wait until all the people in the cram school are dead, and only you and the murderer are left, then you can understand it?"
"Hey, this is also a good way." The boy nodded.
"...God!"
