Ming Ke: When the villain accidentally mixes into the protagonist group

The cobra woman opened the note handed over by the gray rabbit, and her eyebrows under the mask slightly raised. She glanced at the white snake gentleman in the distance without leaving any trace. She thought to herself, why does this man write lightly and heavily at times, as if he is hiding something - is he hiding his dominant hand, or does he not want people to recognize his handwriting? So she tried to ask: "Do you know that Mr. White Snake?"

Mingyue raised her little face with an innocent look, "I don't know him, what's wrong? Did he remember something wrong?" (The text omits part of the contact process, it would be too long to write it in full...) "No, I was just... asking casually." The cobra woman returned the note to the gray rabbit and said as if explaining, "He gave you this crucial clue so easily, I thought you knew him very well."

“Maybe he thinks I’m too young. Even if he gives me this clue, I won’t be able to win in the end. After all, in his eyes, I was forced to become a zombie.” Mingyue smiled brightly.

The cobra woman lowered her voice and pretended to be angry, but her tone seemed to be a reproach with a hint of pampering, "You know, my heart almost jumped out of my throat just now. Logically, you only need to push the identity of the original zombie to the white horse or the owl, right? There is no need to take that risk."

Mingyue's lips curled up slightly, and she smiled faintly, analyzing: "After the results of the first round came out, some people should have guessed that it was the contact between the two original zombies that caused the number of zombies to not change significantly. Then the original zombies could only be among those who only contacted once. I contacted twice, and Gray Wolf contacted more people."

"Yes, according to this reasoning, anyone who has not drunk the antidote and has come into contact with more than two people cannot be a primitive zombie. The participants this person has come into contact with should also belong to the human camp." The cobra woman looked at the young girl in front of her. Her eyes seemed gentle, but in fact, there were undercurrents surging. The smile did not really reach her eyes.

Mingyue looked at the cobra woman, trying to see something in her azure eyes, but as expected, she found nothing, so she pointed at the note and continued, "Lions, elks, white snakes, white horses, parrots, raccoons, white tigers, and owls. They are likely to be mistaken for primitive zombies by others."

"So in the second round, most people want to contact Mr. Gray Wolf, because he is definitely a human." The cobra woman looked at the Gray Wolf who was chatting happily with the man in black robes, and said softly, "I will contact him later. After all, only by infecting all humans into zombies can we win."

"After winning, will you still choose zombies?" Mingyue stared at the cobra woman without blinking.

The cobra woman did not answer, but threw the question back to the gray rabbit, "Whichever you choose, I will choose."

Mingyue lowered her eyes slightly to hide the disgust in her eyes. She always felt that this woman wearing a snake mask was not simple, just like the undercover agent wearing a white snake mask in the distance. She smiled and said, "If I were to choose, I would still choose zombies. After all, it is impossible for humans to have equal scores, and zombies will definitely not be eliminated. Maybe there are still people who want to join the zombie camp."

"That's right. Maybe the official game will end earlier than expected." The cobra woman looked at the petite girl in front of her, slowly squatted down, looked at the gray rabbit at eye level, and whispered, "You cheated in the last round of the loser's revival match."

"Huh?" Mingyue tilted her head and looked at the cobra woman with a puzzled look. Her expression was innocent and pure, as if she really had no idea what was going on.

"When they draw the cards later, can you tell me what cards they will draw?" The cobra woman looked at the gray rabbit with burning eyes, her eyes flashing, as if she was expecting a positive answer.

"Aren't there only two original zombies?" Mingyue blinked, looking confused. "Could it be that Sister Cobra, you are not going to choose a zombie? We just agreed that you would choose whatever I choose. Are you lying to me?"

Seeing that she couldn't get any more information from the question, the cobra woman could only chuckle, "Yes, there are only two original zombies, we chose them, and the remaining participants can only be humans."

Mingyue stretched out her little finger mischievously, and shook the white finger lightly in the air, "Pink."

The cobra woman was slightly stunned, then hooked her little finger with a helpless look on her face.

"Now that we've made a promise, you're not allowed to regret it." Mingyue said seriously, but when she retracted her little finger, she gently stroked the palm of the cobra woman's hand with her fingertips, touched a few calluses, and had some guesses in her mind.

"Okay." The cobra woman just smiled, but a barely perceptible dark light flashed in her eyes. She looked around and said softly, "It's okay to choose zombies, but aren't you afraid that humans will unite to deal with us? Or are you and them not at odds, and you're just acting?"

"They? Who are they?" Mingyue tilted her head.

"Look, these are the people who want to protect you." The cobra woman pointed towards the distance.

Mingyue followed the cobra woman's line of sight and saw Lei, who was wearing a black wolf mask, with his hands in his pockets. Next to him stood Busujima Kiriko, who was wearing a white tiger mask. Busujima Kiriko seemed to be persuading Lei to contact her, but Lei did not seem to agree.

"Are you referring to those two wolves?" Mingyue retracted her gaze and looked at the cobra woman beside her.

"Are they the only ones you have? Isn't it Mr. Siamese Cat? And Mr. Red Fox seems to be paying a lot of attention to you." The cobra woman's eyes were full of inquiry. She glanced at the admirers around the brown bear and whispered, "Are the gamblers who rushed up at that time really all his admirers?"

Mingyue glanced cautiously at the brown bear in the distance, lowered her voice, and asked in confusion: "If it's not his admirer, then who is it?"

The cobra woman smiled and said, "Shouldn't his admirers be those who worship violence and blood, and never use their brains to solve things that can be solved with fists?"

"Really? I really don't know that."

"Do you know about room number six?" The cobra woman changed the subject and fixed her eyes on Mingyue.

Mingyue nodded, looked around, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, she whispered: "I also heard that some people died inexplicably in their sleep these past few nights. Is this true? Could this cruise ship be cursed?" Mingyue's voice was mixed with tension and fear.

The smile on the cobra woman's face gradually faded, her mouth was pursed into a straight line, and her eyebrows under the mask were twisted together.

She knew about this matter, and also knew that the dead were all wanted criminals who had killed several people. She had suspected that the dead were killed by their enemies, but no matter how she investigated, she could not find a common enemy for the dead.

I also suspect that there are police officers among these guests, but those police officers will only think about arresting these people and will not kill them before the cruise ship docks. After all, those who uphold the law will only try to bring them to court, put them in jail, and let the law judge their crimes.

Suddenly, the cobra woman seemed to think of something, and she stared at the gray rabbit for a long time.

Mingyue felt uneasy seeing this and was just thinking of finding an excuse to leave when she suddenly heard approaching footsteps.

"Cough cough."

A sweet voice came from behind Mingyue, breaking the depressing atmosphere between Mingyue and Cobra.

"Sorry to bother you." Bearded Lily looked at the gray rabbit tenderly.

Mingyue felt that all the hairs on her body stood up, and a slightly stiff smile gradually appeared on her face, "Mr. Monkey, are you going to contact Sister Cobra? Sister Cobra is definitely a human being. I have carefully analyzed it."

However, Bearded Lily gently shook her head, raised her orchid finger elegantly, and pointed her finger at Gray Rabbit. Her sweet voice sounded again: "Little sister, I'm here to make contact with you."
