Demon Gatekeeper [Unlimited]

After eating and drinking, some players who hadn't slept all night leaned on chairs to catch up on sleep.The rest of the players got together to discuss the next step.

Dugu didn't sleep well last night. After breakfast, he felt a little drowsy. He leaned on the edge of the table and dozed off with one hand resting on his chin. Just as he said hello to Duke Zhou, there was a ghostly voice in his ear, which disturbed him. woke up.

"A passerby. A passerby."

Dugu opened his eyes, Lion, Zhang San, and Miss Mingyue stood in front of him together.Dugu rubbed his face, pulled himself together and asked, "What's the matter?"

The three of them looked at each other, and the lion said, "Passerby, we discussed it, and we think we can capture the thief first, and let Mingyue girl trick the mayor over here. We catch him and force him to tell the truth. What did you do to the town? It’s just that the mayor will probably bring a few guards, we’re afraid we won’t be able to fight, you and brother passer-by B are both pretty good, so I want to ask you to help us out.”

Dugu knew that this skill was good, and the main praise was Yu Yuan. The skill of stabbing the devil to death with a single knife was naturally extremely good.But because Yu Yuan usually behaved very sticky to himself, they started from him and wanted to pull the two of them together to help.

"Don't go." Dugu flatly refused, and looked at the lion strangely. He had the impression that the lion was not such an aggressive person. He looked at the two people behind the lion from the corner of his eyes: "Who came up with this idea?"

"Zhang San. He heard from Miss Mingyue that he can make up an excuse to lure the mayor here." After speaking, the lion looked at Dugu's disapproving expression and asked, "Do you think there is any problem?"

"Of course there is a problem. Who knows how many guards the mayor will bring, are you so sure they can handle it?" Nian Xiuzhu said: "Then Miss Mingyue wants to arrest the mayor, so why not secretly poison her? Shall we confront the mayor's guards?"

"It's not just you two, we've found eight brothers in total, and the lion and I will be there too." Zhang San annoyedly protected Mingyue girl behind him, "It's easy to say, where can we find them? Let me explain that Miss Yue, a girl's family, has already helped us enough, how can we let her take another risk?".

"Hiss—" Dugu raised his eyes and looked at Zhang San, feeling that his attitude was a bit strange, his attitude towards an NPC was a bit too attentive.

Dugu said unceremoniously to Miss Mingyue: "Miss Mingyue, can you please leave first? I have something to whisper to them, it's not convenient for you to listen."

"What's the inconvenience?" Zhang San said dissatisfiedly: "Miss Mingyue is the owner here, how can there be any reason for guests to drive away the owner?"

However, Lion understood what Dugu meant. He was probably worried that what he said next would be judged OOC, so he turned his head and said to Miss Mingyue apologetically, "Sorry, there is indeed something we need to discuss separately."

"It's okay, then I'll go to the outside room, you can call me after you have discussed it." Miss Mingyue acted very reasonable, bowed her body and left.

Dugu watched Miss Mingyue go out, and then closed the door: "The NPC is gone, so I have to speak directly. I can't trust this girl Mingyue, so she wants to arrest the mayor and let her go by herself. We can't give her As a gun, less than half of the players are left, and we can't afford to consume it. In addition, Miss Mingyue is just an NPC, no matter how good-looking she is, she is also a system tool, so there is no need to maintain it so sincerely, brother Zhang?"

Zhang San glared at Dugu angrily: "What are you talking about? They are living people in this world, and we are the invaders. They have helped us enough, so forget about your ungratefulness and continue to use them. You are too selfish."

"Pfft—your logic, I'm selfish if I don't listen to you? It's really a fun for me." Dugu chuckled lightly. He doesn't like to quarrel with others, but those who don't speak human words can be excluded.

"It's not about me alone, it's for the safety of all our players and even the residents of the town." Zhang □□ retorted: "Isn't it selfish that you don't want to participate in the battle despite your strength?"

"You said passer-by A used NPCs, you said it was selfish, but you wouldn't be selfish if you let him fight with the guards?" Nian Xiuzhu hit the nail on the head with precision.

The doctor showed professional judgment: "Forcing others to sacrifice themselves for others is the disease of the Holy Father, which can be cured."

The two rarely found a common language in quarreling with others.

"Forget it, I wasn't looking for you." Zhang San turned his gaze to Yu Yuan: "Passerby B, I heard that you once subdued a demon by yourself. We need your help."

Yu Yuan lowered his eyelids, took out the dagger from his pocket and wiped it with the hem of his clothes: "You first apologize to Brother A Jia."

Zhang San felt something was going on, and his eyes lit up: "As long as I apologize, will you help me?"

Yu Yuan raised his head, his eyes locked on Zhang San like a poisonous snake, but his voice was extremely gentle: "If you don't apologize, I will kill you first."

The surroundings were quiet for a moment, and Zhang San felt a gust of cold wind crawling up his back.The murderous intent in Yu Yuan's eyes seemed to be substantive, not a threat at all, but a plain statement of a fact.But the more he is like this, the more creepy he is.

"Pfft, I was joking." Yu Yuan smiled, and the murderous look in his eyes disappeared in an instant, turning into full of jokes: "Look, I scared you."

Zhang San was robbed by four people in turn. He blushed and turned to leave: "If you don't help, you won't help. There are so many people here, there is always someone who is willing to help."

"Don't go, I have a question for you." Dugu stopped Zhang San: "You have been living here for the past few days? Why didn't you contact other players before?"

Zhang San: "Why should I answer you?"

Snapped!Yu Yuan slapped the dagger on the table and looked at Zhang San threateningly.

"I was injured and fell into a coma. I just woke up yesterday evening." Zhang San said reluctantly.

Dugu stared at the other person's eyes, Zhang San spoke with confidence, without any guilt.Either it's telling the truth, or it's acting first-rate.

Dugu: "What about after waking up?"

Zhang San: "When I woke up, I saw Miss Mingyue. I heard the story she told for a long time. It was roughly what you heard today, but it should be more detailed. I asked her about Qiongzhiyu again, but I didn't expect to hit it by mistake. After completing the main task, I thought about going back quickly and telling you about the matter. I didn’t expect to find out that there was a fire there when I went to the ruined temple. I heard you guys discussing where to go next, and I discussed it with Miss Mingyue, so I put you I took it."

The lion looked at Zhang San with a complicated expression, and unconsciously raised his voice: "What did you say? You were the one who completed the main task yesterday?"

This voice woke up many players who were still dozing off, and the players who were chatting also stopped and looked towards the lion.

"It's me?" Zhang Sanlang replied.

Dugu raised his eyebrows, it was quite lively now.

No, the Lion immediately turned his head to look at Dugu upon hearing the words, and asked, "Passerby A, didn't you say that you and Passerby B completed the main task?"

"Yeah." Dugu nodded, "So he's lying."

Zhang San exploded immediately: "Who do you say is lying, it was Mingyue girl who told me herself!"

Lion's doubts about Dugu hadn't been fully dispelled, so he called Tutu and said, "Can you tell me again how Brother A, passer-by, saved you yesterday?"

Tutu felt that the atmosphere among the few people was a bit strange, so he recalled obediently: "Tutu was captured by three villains, and then Passerby A and Passerby B suddenly appeared, beat up the villains, and saved me. , Then I fainted, and I was already here when I woke up.”

"How did you faint? Did you see Passerby A and Passerby B ask the NPC about the truth about Qiongzhicao?"

Tutu shook his head: "I don't know, I fainted as soon as I fainted, didn't you tell Tutu that they unlocked the main mission, Brother Lion?"

The lion stared at Dugu and asked, "Can you explain why Tutu fainted at that time?"

"I knocked it out." Yu Yuan rushed ahead of Dugu and said, "She kept crying, it was too noisy."

Tutu stared at Yu Yuan in disbelief, his eyes seemed to be accusing: Tutu is so cute, why do you think Tutu is noisy?

"So no one can prove it." Zhang San sneered and looked at Dugu.

"Do you have someone to prove it?" Dugu asked back: "In addition, when we first met yesterday, I didn't say that I did the main task, but now I bring it up and say that I asked someone about the situation in advance, and I think it's okay to impersonate it?"

Zhang San: "Isn't it the best proof that Miss Mingyue knows the truth? Before Miss Mingyue told her about it, none of you told her about Qiongzhicao."

"Then how did I know the truth?" Dugu asked following Zhang San's logic.

Zhang San: "The devil also knows the truth. I heard from the lion that you followed a devil for several days before, and the explanation you gave after you came back is also very far-fetched."

Dugu laughed: "If you know the truth, it proves that you are good people. If I know the truth, it proves that I am a devil. Why can't it be the other way around?"

"I'm definitely not a devil!" Zhang San seemed to be out of breath, raising his voice an octave.

The lion is a little undecided. Now the two sides must be lying, but neither can produce conclusive evidence.The lion's inner balance began to tilt towards Zhang San. After all, Dugu had a history of contacting demons.

Dugu looked at Zhang San: "I know you are not a devil."

"What do you mean?" Zhang San froze for a moment.

Dugu: "But Miss Mingyue is, and you, have been brainwashed by her."

This is the only possibility that Dugu came up with to explain the current situation. Zhang San is a player, no matter how confused he is, it is impossible to help the devil, or the other party has skills similar to his own, and can manipulate Zhang San to make him lie, or It's that Miss Mingyue has a way to influence Zhang San's memory, making him feel that he really completed the main task yesterday.

"Nonsense." Zhang San looked at Dugu: "Don't quibble, Miss Mingyue saved everyone today. If she was a devil, why didn't she kill me earlier? Why didn't you let NPCs besiege you last night? Why didn't you go to dinner in the morning? Poisoned inside? Besides, if she is a demon, then you can tell me, where is another demon hiding, why hasn't she appeared?"

Dugu was silent for a moment, he really couldn't figure out why the last demon came here and hid and didn't show up at all, the mayor and the lunatic are both suspects, but now he feels that they are neither of them.

Yu Yuan's eyes flickered for a moment, and there was a demon left, others didn't know who it was, but he knew it.The reason why he didn't show up was also very simple. Guanshi Qian was frightened by him a long time ago, and he didn't dare to show up in front of his eyes again.But he is not in a hurry to speak out now to help Dugu out of the siege. Firstly, it is a bit troublesome to explain, and secondly, he wants to see Dugu's response. After all, his brother Dugu has never let him down.

"Can't you tell? You are all demons. From the beginning, you didn't know how to sneak into the players and wanted to kill everyone."

"If I'm really a devil." Dugu leaned back on the table next to him, raised his chin slightly, revealing his beautiful neckline, and smiled arrogantly: "This game will be over the next day."

"Who doesn't speak big words." Zhang San curled his lips in disdain.

Dugu came up with a plan: "For example, on the first night when none of you thought that demons could be mixed into the players, make porridge with Qiongzhi grass leaves, take them back on the first night, make up any reason, and give it to a kind passer-by." I tricked you all into drinking it, how many people do you think will reject me? It doesn’t matter if I refuse, just kill the remaining shrimp soldiers and crab generals.”

Everyone gasped, recalling that if a player brought back hot porridge on the first night, he would probably not refuse it.

"I'll analyze the ingredients. I can tell if you added something." The girl who said that there was no poison in the rice just now said.

"Even if you find out that it's Qiongzhi grass, can you figure out that people will die if they eat it? At that time, I'll mix a few more vegetables into it and just say it's vegetable porridge. Are you sure you can tell?" Dugu That's exactly how Mr. Da poisoned the lion and others.

"Maybe you didn't think of it at the time." Zhang San stiffened his neck and refused to admit defeat.

"Then there is another way." Dugu smiled evilly, and at this moment, it looked like a devil: "Borrowing a knife to kill people, for example, when you come to Miss Mingyue's house today, leave a mark along the road for other demon companions to chase you. I found out that you were hiding in the mayor's outer room, and told the mayor. Do you think the guards would kill you after the mayor wearing a cuckold found out? This yard is only this big, there is no back door, and the walls are high , you have nowhere to go even if you want to run."

The player panicked again, and even wanted to go out to see if someone really left a mark along the way.

Dugu blinked, and showed a pure and harmless smile again: "So you see, you are still alive, isn't it my best proof?"

"Dong, dong, dong." The door was knocked suddenly, and the panicked voice of Miss Mingyue came in: "It's not good, the mayor brought someone over suddenly, and they are already at the door."

The players gasped and looked at Dugu in unison.

Dugu: ...

The author has something to say: Dugu: I really just use a random analogy.
