Sprinkle dog food at the scene of a large escape

"Squeak, squeak..."

The sound of chewing kept echoing in his ears, Lu Xiaoyun woke up from his sleep, thinking in a daze that he must tell Brother Yu when he wakes up tomorrow morning, it is not good to always steal food at night, it is too noisy.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoyun turned over and fell asleep again.

This sleep was not peaceful, and when Lu Xiaoyun woke up, he couldn't tell the difference between day and night.

Lu Xiaoyun sat up and stretched herself, two 'duh' sounds came from the door, and when she heard the sound, she subconsciously looked up.

I saw a complete skeleton standing upright in front of the door. There were some fragments of clothes hanging on the skeleton, and there were still two eyeballs left in the eyeholes of the skull on the face.

The pupils dilated, the black pupils almost filled the whites of the eyes, and the eyes were full of panic and raised bloodshot eyes.

--"what!"

A woman's shrill and panicked exclamation broke the tranquility of the morning.

The quilt on the bed was churning, Chu Yixi threw off the quilt violently, turned over and sat up frowning, and heard this sound early in the morning, not only disturbing sleep, but also making people irritated.

Zhou Yan didn't know when he opened another bag of snacks, and when Chu Yixi came out of the wash, Zhou Yan was putting the last piece of potato chips into his mouth.

Seeing that Chu Yixi was staring at him, Zhou Yan turned the potato chip bag upside down and shook it, "It's gone."

Chu Yixi: "..."

Neuropathy.

When the two walked out of the room, they saw that the corridor was already full of people, and the center of the surrounding seemed to be where the sound came from.

Zhou Yan stepped forward to push aside the crowd and glanced inside, "What are you calling for? Disturbing people's dreams in the early morning."

With just one glance, he could see clearly the appearance of that person.

No, it can't be called a person, it's just... a skeleton.

From head to toe, a complete skeleton.

Under the rags, there was no trace of flesh and blood, it was inconceivably clean, only two eyeballs remained, showing that this was a living person.

Lu Xiaoyun, who was sitting next to the skeleton, had already been frightened and at a loss. Hearing the voice, he clenched the corner of his clothes and said tremblingly, "I... I am, I saw it when I got up..."

"He was standing at the door, and I was taken aback."

Chu Yixi visually measured the distance between the skeleton and the door, "The door? Has any of you moved this skeleton?"

A man said: "No, we heard the screams and went out to open the door, only to see this skeleton falling straight down."

"It fell down, but it didn't break..." Chu Yixi said, approaching the skeleton, leaning down to examine it carefully.

Chu Yixi reached out to touch his breast pocket, but he couldn't find the thing he wanted.

Zhou Yan reached out and handed him the glove, "Hey."

"Thank you." After thanking him, Chu Yixi put on his gloves and turned over the bones.

When his fingers touched the connection of the bones, Chu Yixi paused with his fingertips.

Zhou Yan asked: "What's wrong?"

Chu Yixi didn't speak, but held the two ends with both hands, and gently broke them off. There was still flesh and blood at the junction of the bones, and the blood inside even flowed normally along the texture of the flesh...

Chu Yixi turned sideways to show everyone this horrifying scene.

Everyone froze when they saw this, Lu Xiaoyun opened her eyes wide, feeling that she hadn't woken up yet, she asked in disbelief: "Is he still alive?"

How...how is it possible.

This cannot be explained by normal medicine at all, and Chu Yixi didn't know how to tell the difference, so he shook his head, "I don't know."

Zhou Yan looked at Lu Xiaoyun and asked, "Do you know this person?"

Lu Xiaoyun nodded, "Yes, he came in with me."

Zhou Yan asked again: "Are you sure this person is your companion?"

After all, apart from some scattered clothes, there was nothing on this skeleton that could identify him.

It can't be ruled out that Lu Xiaoyun's companion went to do other things and didn't have time to come back. This skeleton doesn't belong to Lu Xiaoyun's companion at all.

Lu Xiaoyun affirmed: "He is right. I remember that I used all the points to change the clothes on the island, so I can be sure."

Since there is no problem with identity, the problem is last night...

"Then did he do anything strange last night?" After Zhou Yan said this, he had already entered the room, lying on the folds of the bed, and looked towards the door in the direction Lu Xiaoyun said just now.

Lu Xiaoyun pondered for a moment, and said: "Yesterday... I was very scared because someone died yesterday, and he kept comforting me by my side. After talking for a while, I became a little sleepy. Hearing the sound of eating, I thought he was eating snacks when he was hungry, so I didn't pay much attention and fell asleep, and saw this skeleton at the door the next day..."

The sound of eating?

Chu Yixi pursed her lips, thinking of the missing flesh and internal organs of this man, as if that bloody picture had already appeared in front of her eyes.

I don't know who it is, but he stumbled and asked: "The chewing sound...could it be...?"

Although the words were not finished, it was already very obvious when the time came.

No one responded, but that was more or less the same thing in everyone's minds.

The bones without flesh and blood, coupled with the sound of eating, the result is already obvious.

Chu Yixi asked: "What did you find?"

Zhou Yan stood up from the bed, walked to the door, touched the holes in the wall, "There are two holes... as if they were drilled out."

Chu Yixi went in to take a look, and asked, "Did these two holes exist yesterday?"

"I... I don't know, I don't care about this."

Chu Yixi turned his head and glanced at Lu Xiaoyun, as if he wanted to ask something, but this time he saw the butler standing upright behind everyone.

Chu Yixi's breathing was impossibly stagnant. The housekeeper now looked much more kind than last night, but with the scene of last night, Chu Yixi felt that this pretending kindness was even more terrifying.

Zhou Yan followed his gaze, met the steward's gaze, pointed at the skeleton lazily and said, "Steward, someone died."

"Oh? My distinguished guest, do you know what you are talking about? This is absolutely impossible. How could there be such murderous people in our duke's mansion. You know, our duke hates these things the most."

Zhou Yan signaled everyone to make way, and showed the skeleton inside to the housekeeper, "The body is still there."

The butler opened his cloudy eyes to look at the skeleton, and smiled for a moment.

The housekeeper touched the top of the skeleton's head, kindly as if he was stroking a lovely child: "Isn't this gentleman alive and well?"

Live... well?

Hearing this, everyone's backs couldn't help but feel cold, and they were sweating profusely.None of them would question what the NPC said, but if what the NPC said was true, then... that person is still alive?

There is still blood flowing in the joint of the joint, and it is still alive.

The butler didn't explain too much, looked down at the time, bowed slightly and said: "Okay, my dear guest, it's time for breakfast, everyone hurry up and eat."

Lu Xiaoyun asked, "Are you going?" This sentence was almost subconsciously said to Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan narrowed his eyes, and looked at her unabashedly: "Of course, eating is the theme of this game."

Everyone followed the butler downstairs, and when they were seated, Chu Yixi asked a lot, "Who is dead, and he is still alive?"

Zhou Yan brought a large plate of carrots brought by the maid to Chu Yixi, "It must be a ghost."

Chu Yixi: "..."

kill without spilling blood.

Chu Yixi looked at the delicate piece of carrot in front of him, thought for a while, then cut off a small piece with a fork and brought it to his mouth.

Zhou Yanyi grasped his wrist, "Hello!"

Zhou Yan's original intention was to tease him, so as to save him from being sullen all day long and then becoming paralyzed, blinding his pretty face, but he didn't expect Chu Yixi to actually send it to his mouth.

Chu Yixi raised his eyebrows, leaned forward, opened his mouth to hold the fork in his mouth, "Well, it tastes good."

Zhou Yan: "...you brat who doesn't know how to live or die."

Chu Yixi finished eating the carrots without saying a word, put down the fork and thought about it, "So, my guess yesterday was wrong?"

After the others heard it, they became uneasy and hurriedly asked, "Guess? What guess? Is it a clue to clear the game?"

Chu Yixi glanced at Zhou Yan, and after seeing Zhou Yan nodded slightly, he said thoughtfully, "Assuming that Xu Manman died yesterday because he ate bread, but there are also people who did not have any problems after eating bread, so I checked the rest of Xumanman's bread and found that compared to other breads, the ingredients are the same, except that Xumanman's bread has some carrots in it, so I guess, it is not the bread that kills, but the carrots grains to death."

After a pause, Chu Yixi continued: "... But I didn't expect that everyone's breakfast this morning was a piece of carrot. If the carrot is fatal, then the group will be wiped out this time, and no elite will survive. Isn't the game pointless."

So...carrots are not the cause of death.

"Then why did Xu Manman die?"

Chu Yixi looked up, and the person who asked the question was the man Xu Manman was pestering, called Brother Zhang.

Before waiting for an answer, Zhou Yan said: "I don't know."

After Zhou Yan replied indifferently, Zhang Ge didn't know what he was afraid of, but he didn't continue to ask questions with a very bad expression.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhou Yan got up and said, "Have you finished your meal? If you have nothing to do, just look around to see if there are any clues to clear the customs. Don't just sit here."

Zhou Yan: "Let's go."

Chu Yixi hadn't figured out what the reminder was about, and didn't want to move, "I won't go, you go by yourself."

"You want to go." Zhou Yan said something that he couldn't refuse, and his hands forcefully brought Chu Yixi out.

Walking out of the villa, you will find the front hall. Regardless of the fact that this is a place where killing games exist, it is indeed a luxurious villa area.

Chu Yixi: "Why did you call me out?"

Zhou Yan did not answer his question, but asked instead: "Your reminder is not just carrots, is it?"

"Huh?" Chu Yixi snorted nasally, but also did not answer.

"I'll tell you what the carrots mean, how about you tell me the rest of the hints?"

"It's not fair to me." Chu Yixi refused decisively.

The matter of the carrot has already been figured out. If you think about it carefully, you will figure out what is going on sooner or later, but no one knows about the remaining reminders. Only he has it. This kind of exchange condition is not fair in itself.

Zhou Yan expected that Chu Yixi would not share it so easily, but he was still confident, "In this game, experience is still very important. If you only rely on your current thinking to deduce this clue, you will definitely not be able to analyze it. come out."

Chu Yixi pursed her lips, and had to say that what Zhou Yan said made sense, and what he gave was indeed very tempting. If there are many ways to explain the hint, then the remaining hints must not be intuitive.

Instead of having a clue but not being able to solve it and only rot in your hands, it is better to fight and form an alliance.

"Well, I'll give you the rest of the tips, and you promise to share with me after analyzing the results of the tips."

"make a deal."

Chu Yixi: "Then tell me what this carrot means first."

Zhou Yan: "On the first day we came, do you remember what the housekeeper said when serving the dishes?"

"Duke prepared a sumptuous dinner?" Chu Yixi asked tentatively.

"Yes, dinner, not breakfast. The theme of the game is that all things will happen only in the context of the theme. Breakfast does not belong to dinner, so even if you are late, the carrot will not die... It fits the theme, yes Novices don't know." At the end of the sentence, Zhou Yan added something extra, and saw Chu Yixi's black face with satisfaction.

Chu Yixi turned his head and left, the theme?What kind of reasonable explanation is this? !

What a waste of my leads!

"Little beauty, you haven't told me what the clue is."

Chu Yixi has no intention of breaching the contract, no matter how idiotic what Zhou Yan said, it is impossible for him to do such a dishonest thing.

Chu Yixi waved his hand: "We'll talk about it tonight."

Just as Zhou Yan was about to chase after him, he realized that he had stepped on something. After bending down to pick it up, Zhou Yan was stunned.

Zhou Yan greeted: "Little beauty, come here and see what I found."

"Call me little beauty again, and I'll make you a real beauty." As he spoke, Chu Yixi's eyes flicked across Zhou Yan's lower body as if in warning.

"Good little beauty."

"You—" Chu Yixi walked back a few steps and raised his hand to hit him, but Zhou Yan dodged it, and then slipped a stiff plaything into his hand.

Chu Yixi frowned in disgust, "What?"

At first glance, the stone-like thing placed in her palm was obviously what Zhou Yan picked up on the ground just now, and it was still dirty with mud and leaves.

Moreover, this dirty thing is in the palm of his hand at the moment, and he is not wearing gloves!

Thinking of this, Chu Yixi's face turned even darker.

Chu Yixi raised his hand and wanted to throw it towards Zhou Yan's face, "You..."

"Okay, okay, don't be angry, take a closer look at what this thing looks like."

"Like love."

Zhou Yan: "???"

What's the matter with you, little beauty?

"Cough." Seeing Zhou Yan choking speechlessly, Chu Yixi coughed lightly with his fist on his lips, and then carefully observed the thing in his palm.

The beak is obvious, like the corpse of some bird, but only the skeleton remains, and the body should have already decayed.

Wait……

Chu Yixi's face gradually became solemn, he gently opened the joints with both hands, only to see that there was flowing flesh and blood in the middle!

This……?

"This is the same as the man who died this morning."

It's just that whether the bird's body was eaten or what happened, there is no way of knowing.

While the two were talking, a large pile of crows gathered above their heads at some point, Zhou Yan raised his head and took a look, then took Chu Yixi's arm and walked back, "Let's go, go back first."

Chu Yixi took a quick glance at the crows before entering the villa.

Of course, the remains of the unknown bird were also carried with him.

Seeing them coming in, a few people sitting at the dining table hurriedly asked, "Why did you come back so quickly, did you find any clues?"

Chu Yixi frowned slightly, looked around for a week, and found that there were quite a few people sitting here without moving, "You've been sitting here all this time?"

The man scratched his head, "Well...we haven't participated in this kind of game a few times, and we don't have much experience, so we dare not walk around casually."

Chu Yixi didn't speak, it was the first time he saw someone who spoke of being lazy so freshly and refinedly.

Seeing that Chu Yixi didn't intend to tell the clues to share, one of the men became anxious, "What did you find out, tell me! Do you still want to leave here?!"

Chu Yixi didn't want to say anything more to these people, Zhou Yan casually played with the cold blade, and glanced over everyone, "We know what the clue is, and we can leave when the time comes, but what do you have to do with us? "

"you--"

"Old Xi! Shut up." The man stopped Lao Xi's words, looking at the cold blade in Zhou Yan's hands, his eyes were full of fear.

Lao Xi stood up angrily, "If you don't say it, don't say it, let's find it ourselves!"

With that said, these people left together.

Chu Yixi looked at Lao Xi's waist, the gleaming machete was hanging on his waist, he even felt that if Zhou Yan hadn't been there, these people just now might have killed people to get the clues they wanted .

"You see, this is the so-called human nature." Zhou Yan said: "In the face of death and interests, there is no human nature."

Chu Yixi took it for granted.

------

When Brother Zhang came back, Lu Xiaoyun was still following behind him.

Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows, as if he was thinking when did these two hook up.

Lu Xiaoyun walked to his seat panting and sat down, "Are you the only ones here? Where are the others?"

Chu Yixi squeezed a glass of juice for himself. For some reason, he intentionally threw a carrot in while squeezing the juice, "There are a few people who are just waiting to die, and Zhou Yan scared them out. After us, you are the first One came back."

Brother Zhang asked, "Did you find anything?"

Lu Xiaoyun hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, we found a very important thing, do you want to exchange it?"

Chu Yixi turned his head and looked at Zhou Yan, "Yes."

As he said that, Lu Xiaoyun had already taken out the so-called 'important thing'.

The corpse of a... crow.

This corpse was different from the one Chu Yixi and the others found, but a pile of minced meat underneath, with severed wings and leg bones piled up on top of the minced meat, and finally the pitch-black crow's head stood in the middle.

Chu Yixi: "..."

This picture... Chu Yixi pursed his lips slightly. Others might not know what was going on, but in Chu Yixi's mind, a similar picture instantly appeared.

This is... Xu Manman's death.

That night, after the housekeeper did something, Xu Manman's appearance.

Chu Yixi lowered his eyes slightly, and pressed the answer deep in his mind, planning to analyze it carefully with Zhou Yan at night, and exchange the information for now.

"We also found a similar corpse, but only the wreckage." As he spoke, Chu Yixi motioned Zhou Yan to take out the wreckage.

Under Chu Yixi's gaze, Zhou Yan slowly took out the wreckage in his pocket. The wreckage was wrapped with a layer of white cloth. It seemed that he was very careful. When Zhou Yan opened the white cloth bit by bit, Chu Yan Yixi was stunned.

He touched his breast pocket.

—the gloves are gone.

That white cloth... Bah!Where is the white cloth!Those are his gloves!

Looking at the dirt and rotten leaves on the gloves, at that moment, Chu Yixi had thousands of ways to kill this person in his mind.

Zhou Yan didn't hide it, and directly put this on the table for the two to check.

After looking at the wreckage, Lu Xiaoyun and Brother Zhang didn't ask any further questions, obviously they also knew the rules.

In the blink of an eye, it was night, and everyone was urged to return to the dining table by time. This time, the dinner was meat.

No one has a big piece of meat, no one knows what kind of animal meat it is, and no one knows how it is cooked. There is only a simple piece of meat.

This time, Chu Yixi didn't eat.

He would rather eat carrots at this time than eat an extra bite of meat.

It's just that this meat looks too weird.

Seeing this, Zhou Yan simply took him back to the room.

Back in the room, Zhou Yan locked the door behind his back, "You are quite vigilant? I'm not sure if it's good meat, so I won't eat it."

"I just think that kind of meat is tasteless." Chu Yixi opened the drawer of the bedside table familiarly, and saw a lot of snacks inside, and opened a pack of biscuits to eat. "Cookies are too sweet."

Zhou Yan: "..."

If you are so dissatisfied, let me go!

Suddenly thought of something, Chu Yixi put down the biscuit, fumbled for a notebook in his arms, "Here, here you are."

"What?" With an inquiring word on his mouth, he still took the notebook in his hand very frankly.

"clue."

Turning to the first page, there are two lines of exquisite silk flower characters engraved in the center: [The thing the Duke hates the most?Oh~ that’s probably the carrot, madam, and the Duke himself]

After reading this reminder, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "This duke is quite capricious."

"That's the Duke."

Zhou Yan: "The Duke hates his wife, and the Duke himself, do you have any clues about these two?"

Chu Yixi shook his head, "Go upstairs and have a look tomorrow, there should be clues about the Duchess."

"By the way, the crow that Lu Xiaoyun found today is the one I saw Xu Manman being put into by the housekeeper after his death last night."

Zhou Yan: "Then the one we found today should also be a crow. A crow shows the state of a dead person... Did you see a crow when you came in?"

"No, I walked out of the cave and went directly to the restaurant."

"It seems...tomorrow I have to go see the crow."

Chu Yixi clapped her hands and swept the biscuit crumbs into the trash can, "Okay, go to bed early."

Seeing this, Zhou Yan hurriedly stopped him, "Wait...you were the one who slept in the bed yesterday, so it's my turn today."

Chu Yixi didn't hear it clearly, he was already lying in bed and heard the sound.Looking up at him blankly, "Huh?"

The dark eyes seemed to be covered with mist, looking soft and harmless.

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, "No...it's okay."

Chu Yixi rolled his eyes, "Go to bed early."

Zhou Yan: "..."

grass!I'm hallucinating!
