It is strictly forbidden to collapse people [Unlimited]

The servants in the villa quickly called the police, but because of the heavy rain, the police could only come to the island after the rain stopped tomorrow.

Valospa is a D-level dungeon, and everyone here is not like a newcomer participating in the game for the first time. They have already understood the mission requirements without any further explanation.

—Find the master's killer before the police come the next day.

Of course, the prerequisite is that they themselves have to live until the next day.

Everyone finished their dinner thoughtfully.

The servant didn't live in the villa, and probably thought there was a murderer hiding among them, so he left the house after packing up his things.

Mo Jue keenly heard the sound of the door lock turning.

After the servant left, some players turned the doorknob and found that they were locked in the villa.

This small island villa is considered Western style as a whole. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it. After careful observation, you can find many obviously religious decorations. Even the paintings hanging in the corridor are always indescribably wrong. .

Lu Fanqi opened a drawer casually, and unexpectedly saw a disc carved into a coiled snake shape, with a symbol similar to the Bluetooth signal of a mobile phone engraved on the back.

Lu Fanqi was slightly taken aback, then silently closed the drawer.

The players around him were a little curious, and opened the drawer to check after him, but they couldn't see what it was. The man's name was Zhou Chong, and he seemed to be a talkative personality. Lu Fanqi: "What is this? A Bluetooth speaker?"

Innocent student Lu asked questions and answered: "It should be runes."

The other party obviously didn't understand: "What?"

Lu Fanqi had no choice but to explain from the beginning: "Runes, the word itself translates as 'secret knowledge', transliterated into runes or runes, in medieval Europe, especially Scandinavia and the British Isles, used to write certain The language of the Nordic Germanic language family is composed of 24 runes, and its history can be traced back to at least 2 centuries ago, and it has a strong religious atmosphere."

"Runes are often thought of as parallel letters to the Latin alphabet, but they were originally sacred symbols, used to help wizards memorize chants, and legend has it that the Lord God Odin learned after hanging from the tree of sacrifice for nine full nights .They are the medium of incantations that activate spells when summoning divine power. Magicians who use runes can be said to be representative summoners in ancient Europe..."

Zhou Chong was completely dizzy, nodded with a clouded face, and pointed to the bluetooth symbol: "Then what does this mean?"

Lu Fanqi pursed his lips, and replied, "Berko—the meaning of birch tree, represents growth, rebirth, and new life..."

"Oh? Is that so?" Zhou Chong obviously didn't believe it, and looked at him suspiciously, "Then why are you embarrassed?"

Lu Fanqi looked at him confidently this time: "That's what I mean, I didn't lie to you, if you don't believe me, go ask Leshen."

Only then did Zhou Chong nod his head, barely believing it.

He Yingran was on the other side of Lu Fanqi, and after hearing their conversation, he poked his head over and took a look curiously.

Then he blinked at Lu Fanqi with a look of enlightenment, and whispered to him: "What are you thinking of? I am studying European cultural history, and I seem to have seen similar murals or hieroglyphs somewhere, this rune Did it come from something weird in the first place... like female boobs or something?"

Lu Fanqi glanced at her like a frightened little animal.

He Yingran immediately understood, and was also a little surprised: "Hey? Really?" She paused, and couldn't help laughing, "Haha, what's the matter, why are you blushing, it's so cute... ..."

Probably more and more weird details were discovered, strange sculptures, paintings that were obviously some kind of weird ritual, and even the book that was pulled out of the magazine shelf was Paul Herman's "Norse Mythology"...

The atmosphere in the room gradually became a little uneasy.

Some players suggested in a low voice: "Should we go to the master's room to see the corpse?"

After all, they are here to participate in the Aksha game, and they still need to complete the task of finding the murderer. They are not really guests who are trapped in the house and only need to live until dawn.

Immediately, someone eagerly retorted: "We all know that there is a problem with this house, and we still want to see the corpse?! Isn't it rushing to become the next target?!"

Zhou Chong glanced at the person who spoke: "Why are you so excited?...Are you guilty?"

The one who retorted excitedly was Li Ou, who was the last one to gather in the living room. He was obviously flustered at the beginning, but now he seemed to be caught by Zhou Chong's words, which seemed even more unnatural.

His face was flushed red, beads of sweat slipped from his forehead, and he stretched his neck and shouted at Zhou Chong: "Who is guilty?! Go yourself if you have the ability!!! Anyway, I am..."

"Clang, clang, clang..." The bell rang suddenly, interrupting the dispute between the two.

Li Ou's voice froze, and everyone in the room was attracted by the sudden ringing of the bell, and turned to look at the vertical pendulum clock that suddenly rang in the center of the living room.

Shen Yongle was slightly taken aback.

eight o'clock?

Why did the clock strike at eight all of a sudden?

Did the clock ring just at seven o'clock?

In order to wait for the master before, they delayed for nearly an hour before starting to eat. During the meal in the dining room, no one paid special attention to the bell in the living room.

Everyone was a little nervous, not sure what the ringing of the bell meant.

Shen Yongle subconsciously turned her head, wanting to confirm with the Sir whether the bell had also rung at seven o'clock...

As if waiting for the panic to accumulate to the highest level, a flash of lightning flashed across, accompanied by a "boom" thunder that fell not far away, and the lights of the villa suddenly went out.

The players let out a small exclamation in an instant.

Fortunately, nothing else happened.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, the whole villa seemed to be quiet, like a huge monster waiting to devour something.

There was silence in the living room for about half a minute, and finally someone took a short breath as if suddenly regaining their breath.

Many players were a little nervous, subconsciously looking at Shen Yongle: "Leshen..."

"T-Turn off the lights... what now? Shall we, shall we all go back to the house and sleep?"

Immediately, another player refuted him: "No way! Everyone should stay together, otherwise no one will know who died..."

"Yeah, the murderer... um," the player thought for a while, and seemed to feel that it shouldn't matter if he explained it clearly, so he boldly continued, "The murderer is among us, who knows if he will kill others... "

The barrage is also echoing: [Think about Aksha's usual peeing, everyone is locked together, how can nothing happen? ]

[It's safer to stay together... What if the murderer continues to kill? ]

Shen Yongle's hands and feet felt a little cold, and then he felt a familiar hand holding his slightly cold fingers.

He turned his head and glanced at the Sir, regained his composure in an instant, and spoke first: "I also think it is safer for everyone to stay together, because everyone is suspected, and it is convenient for us to monitor each other."

Qi Junze seemed to see what he said, and immediately added: "How about this, we all stay in the living room, if someone goes to the bathroom, they must wait for the previous person to come back, that is to ensure that only one person leaves everyone's sight every time .”

Mo Jue didn't say a word, he just changed the simple holding of Shen Yongle's hand into interlocking fingers, and rubbed him with his thumb.

Shen Yongle: "..."

Why do you think Sir Alex did it on purpose?

Inexplicably, people can't help but imagine the contempt of the king who said "I don't have the same knowledge as you, because I can pull as much as I want, but you can't touch it".

Le Shen shook his head, and quickly turned his attention back to the copy process.

Usually, Sir Alexis is in charge of allocating tasks in consideration of the overall situation, but this time Mo Jue's character design is really not suitable for the first time, and Le Shen took the words out of caution.

There is nothing wrong with what Qi Junze said, it is almost a classic plan that the protagonists must use in all the murder cases in the stormy isolated island.

However, countless similar movies, TV dramas and novels tell us that this method cannot be effective for a long time-because unexpected events will soon occur, which will lead to the destruction of order.

For example, now, when the lights are turned off, they can't even see the people and things around them clearly, and they can't even be sure if there are fewer people.

"It takes a while for human eyes to adapt to the light." Shen Yongle continued to host, "How about this, let's stay where we are and don't move, everyone counts, and then everyone tells what they did before going downstairs at six o'clock. Have you met the owner of the villa?"

Everyone had no opinion, so everyone reported from one to thirteen first to confirm that there were no shortage of people.

Then he heard Zhou Chong's voice and said: "Then let me talk first."

"I didn't return to the villa until five o'clock in the afternoon. I simply took a shower because I was drenched in the rain, and then I came down directly. I didn't go anywhere else and didn't meet the owner of the villa."

Next to him was Lu Fanqi who was standing in front of the drawer just now.

Lu Fanqi said: "I didn't go out today, I have been studying Scandinavian magic and religion in the house - I originally came to the island to borrow books, because the master's books can't be taken away. Being able to borrow books in the house, I believe many people come here because of this.”

Shen Yongle looked at his direction, knowing that Lu Fanqi was deliberately reminding him and his lord.

From this point of view, the owner of the villa should be a lover of Nordic mythology or religious culture, so he collected so many related items and books in the house. Most of the visiting guests came to borrow related books, not necessarily related to The owner is familiar with it.

Afterwards, the players had never met the owner of the house, and most of them were interested in related content, so they came to the villa to borrow books or hold discussion salons with their friends.

Only it was Qi Junze's turn.

He looked at Shen Yongle affectionately, implying something: "I came here for someone."

Shen Yongle: "..."

Forget it, just pretend you didn't see it.

As soon as Shen Yongle turned off the lights, he quietly held his little hands with the Sir. For some reason, hearing Qi Junze playing the affectionate hero here, he found it a bit funny, and scratched his hands in Mo Jue.

The lord immediately held his hand backhanded.

Shen Yongle: "?"

Shen Yongle quietly leaned over and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

The players are still proving their innocence one by one. Shen Yongle and Mo Jue have finished talking. Before, they walked clockwise from Zhou Chong to the left, and they will soon return to the last person on the other side of Zhou Chong.

According to the position before the lights were turned off, the person sitting there should be Li Ou who has always been a little abnormal.

Mo Jue obviously felt that he was suspicious, so he quietly paid attention to him.

At this moment when Shen Yongle came to ask, the lord also quietly lowered his voice, and explained in his ear: "When the count was reported just now, although thirteen numbers were called, there were only twelve voices."

Shen Yongle's ability to distinguish sounds is similar to that of ordinary people, and he can only quickly distinguish familiar or particularly recognizable timbres. Sitting in a circle with more than a dozen strangers like this, and each of them only briefly utters a number, the It's impossible to tell if someone reported it twice in the dark.

The barrage is very tense: [God!do not scare me? !Did something weird get in here? ! ]

[It's not that there is one more, but one is missing, right? ! ]

[But I just counted the shots with Leshen, and there are indeed thirteen people present! ]

[Ah, ah, barrage body protection! ]

In the dark, Mo Jue signaled Shen Yongle to look in Li Ou's direction, "He hasn't moved a single step since he just got up."

Originally, in just five to 10 minutes, many people might not move because they were too focused, mentally empty, or tense and stiff. Even among the thirteen people present, there were no less than three or four people who had hardly changed their postures since then.

But Li Ou is different.

Ever since he appeared, he has been restless and restless, making small movements constantly. At the same time, because his head is covered with cold sweat, he would take out a paper to wipe his sweat from time to time, so he sat next to the small corner cabinet where it is most convenient to take out paper towels.

But now, not only did he no longer draw paper regularly, he even stopped all small movements.

The alibi statement finally reached him as well.

Shen Yongle frowned slightly.

The barrage didn't dare to come out.

The player who just finished speaking was sitting next to Li Ou. Hearing his silence for a long time, he called out to him with some doubts: "I'm done talking, it's your turn."

The girl who spoke was Yu Hanjin. She probably remembered the names of the players around her on purpose. Seeing that he was silent, she reached out and patted him subconsciously, "Is your name Li Ou? Are you distracted? You should say..."

Suddenly another thunder flashed outside the window.

With a sound of "wow", the whole living room was instantly illuminated as if it were daytime.

Yu Hanjin was taken aback for a moment, and then retreated suddenly after seeing Li Ou's appearance clearly: "Ah——!!!!"

Li Ou leaned softly on the sofa, his eyes widened, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, his expression was horrified and terrifying, his lips were bright red, his skin was flushed abnormally, two lines of blood and tears burst from his eyes Flowing out from under the eye sockets, it looked more and more horrifying.

Yu Hanjin was the closest, and was instantly terrified, screaming and about to cover her mouth.

In the next second, Sir Alex grabbed his wrist.

Mo Jue frowned tightly: "Acute cyanide poisoning...you just touched him, don't cover your face."
