After being bound to a rival in an escape game

Chapter 21 The Fatal Dinner Party

Tang Ru, who was the least threatening, died suddenly, Jiang Anxue was not surprised.He went downstairs with Ming Xiangzhao, the double mahogany doors were wide open, the wind howled, and the curtains in the house were blown up, the entrance was covered with white snow, and there were muddy shoe prints left by people coming and going on the white snow .

Sophia died outside.

To be precise, she was killed first, and then the body was thrown outside.

The goose feathers are snowing heavily, the cold wind is raging wantonly, the world is completely white, only the bright red spot under the pine tree is particularly dazzling,

Tang Ru was lying in the snow, his abdomen and chest were dripping with blood, obviously wounds left by a sharp weapon, and he stabbed several times in a short period of time, bleeding to death.

"Oh my God." Ruby knelt on the snow in fright, covering her face and sobbing, "First Arnold, then Sophia, next is my turn!"

Gritting his teeth, Robert said angrily, "Sponsor, who is Chris? If we don't find Chris, we'll have to finish the game!"

Ming Xiangzhao was thinking about comforting everyone in a panic, when he suddenly saw Jiang Anxue squatting beside Tang Ru motionless, his face was not gloomy, but it was cloudy anyway.

Among this group of players, apart from Lou Du, the one closest to Jiang Anxue is Sophia.It is normal for Jiang Anxue to be sad for Sophia's sudden death.

Ming Xiangzhao knelt down and comforted him, "There's nothing we can do about it, we can't predict it, so you..."

Jiang Anxue: "The ring is gone."

Ming Xiangzhao, who devoted himself wholeheartedly to comfort, was caught off guard: "Huh?"

There was an ominous streak across Jiang Anxue's bright and smooth face: "Where's Sophia's handbag?"

"In her own room, George and I went and searched, and there was no ring."

Ming Xiangzhao could see clearly that Jiang Anxue's demeanor was not the slightest bit sad, on the contrary... gloomy, cold, and sly, it made one's heart shudder!

Jiang Anxue stood up, brushed the snow off her shoulders irrelevantly, glanced at Tang Ru who had died tragically, picked up the top hat that was blown off by the wind, and put it on.

He said bitterly: "It's your own fault."

Ming Xiangzhao was stunned for a moment, with a puzzled expression on his face: "What?"

Jiang Anxue didn't answer him, and went straight back to the house.

Leaving aside the supernatural death method in the game, Jiang Anxue always felt strange about the plot in the book. How could a girl named Sophia kill Arnold who was tall and heavy?

Either have an accomplice, or drug.

The former is impossible. In the case of the latter, the murderer is obvious. It can only be Sophia who teaches in a university and can easily get laboratory chemicals.

As for Arnold being stabbed with a knife and headshot again, it was the character "Sophia" in the book venting his anger, that is, whipping the corpse.

Closer to home.

Sophia has a murderous weapon in her hand: lethal chemicals.

As expected, the drug was hidden in the ring Robert gave Sophia.

Tang Ru used the medicine in the ring, why?To kill, of course.

who to kill?

Of course it is an optional task guided by the administrator, Mr. and Mrs. James.

But why was it counter-killed again?

Because he is an eagle, and she is just a fledgling chick.

"Are all newbies so arrogant now? They don't want to survive, but they come here to do hidden missions." Holding a red wine glass, James took a sip slowly, "I played the poisoning thing in the last game. leftover!"

Ruby was a little scared: "I thought it was nothing to be afraid of being a newcomer, I really can't be careless."

"She wanted to die by herself, and if she killed it, she would kill it." James said disapprovingly, "The fewer people successfully pass the level, the higher the evaluation will be. The higher the evaluation, the faster the other shore flower will be painted, and we will be free as soon as possible, right?"

"That's true." Ruby sat down worriedly, and sighed, "I'm afraid that everyone will find out that we killed Sophia, and we will isolate us with the same enemy."

James hates iron and steel: "You are really worrying, everyone is eager to die and lose one competitor! In a game, you are the only one who clears the level, so how many points do you have to give?"

"I hope so." Ruby said sullenly. At the same time, the maid Ella knocked on the door, saying that the meeting was held in advance and everyone was asked to meet in the small living room on the west side.

【ding dong~】

[You have successfully survived for one day, and there are currently 8 players left. 】

The young man with beautiful pupils took a few steps in the living room and said, "Our first priority now is to find Chris, like hiding optional missions. I hope everyone will put it on hold for now, and don't accuse the mastermind behind the scenes."

"I agree." Ming Xiangzhao agreed with both hands, "Although I don't know what the optional tasks are, I have a vague guess. To put it bluntly, it's just four words, kill each other."

Everyone was startled and didn't say anything.

"I can give up the optional task." Andrea raised her hand suddenly and said, and gave Jiang Anxue a pointed look, and said with a wry smile, "Even if I want to do it, I'm afraid I don't have the ability. Of course, I You can give it up, what about you? Is there anyone here who has an optional mission to kill me? I won’t provoke others, but if others provoke me, then I will not be polite.”

"That's it." Robert said, "I won't be attacked if people don't attack me. If the other party comes to kill me, I have to fight back."

"Then set a rule!" Ming Xiangzhao said, "No one is allowed to do anything, at least until Chris is found, everyone must get along in harmony."

"Except for Chris's murder." James interrupted suddenly, "Like Arnold, Sophia, maybe they were all killed by the organizer secretly? Don't blame the players every time you die, okay?"

Ming Xiangzhao was choked and suffering from being unable to speak back, Jiang Anxue, who was wandering around, rescued in time: "Chris can't kill people at will, but players are different, they can do it anytime, anywhere."

George was taken aback: "Kyle, what do you mean by that?"

Jiang Anxue didn't answer him, but went downstairs along the stairs.

Ming Xiangzhao hurriedly followed: "Don't act alone, it's too dangerous!"

The two walked down the stairs from the second floor one after the other, and Jiang Anxue stopped at the intersection of the two floors.

There are many paintings on the wall facing the staircase.There are masterpieces by famous artists, some fakes, and impromptu paintings by the owner himself.

Ming Xiangzhao: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Anxue's gaze became sharper. He looked at all the large and small paintings on the wall, and couldn't help saying in surprise: "There is one more."

"What?" Ming Xiangzhao keenly looked at the dazzling array of paintings, his eyes were dazzled but he couldn't figure it out, "Which one is more? There are at least seventy or eighty paintings here, did you remember wrongly?"

"That memory is the only thing I'm proud of." Jiang Anxue moved a few steps to the right, and stood in front of a famous painting about [-] centimeters long, "That's it, it's suddenly extra."

Ming Xiangzhao followed Jiang Anxue's finger to look, and was suddenly amazed: "God, the world famous work "The Last Supper", is this authentic?"

Regardless of whether it is true or not, stealing this painting from the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan is a piece of cake.Of course, this is not the point, the point is "The Last Supper" itself.

On Passover Eve, Jesus and his twelve disciples sit at the table for the last meal they eat together.At the dinner table, Jesus suddenly felt very sad. He told his disciples that he would be betrayed by one of them, but Jesus did not say that the man was Judas, and the disciples did not know who would betray Jesus.

Judas betrayed Jesus to the Roman government for thirty silver coins, and to this day Judas symbolizes betrayal.

Ming Xiangzhao's face changed, he looked at Jiang Anxue and asked, "Is this painting a reminder? The betrayer means..."

Jiang Anxue was silent for a while, and said something that made Ming Xiangzhao's hair stand on end——

"There is "Judas" hidden among the players, and he is with the host Chris."
