deadly round table

After Jiang Wenyuan clearly knew that the round table game was targeting him, seeing Zuo Zhiyan and himself entered the same round of the game, the first thought that came to Jiang Wenyuan's mind was that the round table game had a conspiracy.But Jiang Wenyuan quickly calmed down. They were wearing the latest version of the common faction bracelet, and Zuo Zhiyan was still holding the robot doll he gave him. They would definitely be assigned the status of ordinary players of the same faction.Jiang Wenyuan got rid of distracting thoughts in his mind, and began to pay attention to the situation at the round table.

There are not many people in this round of the game, there are only twelve players in total.However, it is worth noting that even the last few players in terms of comprehensive strength are very calm, and their neat clothes and bags are enough to prove their status as veteran players.There were no new players in this round of the game.

The lamp in the center of the round table was dark, and there was a melodious sound of a violin. A wooden doll wearing a black long dress and lacking details of the face, hands and feet put down the mini violin on its shoulders.It silently walked to the empty seat, carefully put down the violin and the bow, and then turned around holding the skirt in both hands. The skirt drew a beautiful arc in the air, and she walked towards the player with the lowest overall rating of the game on the left hand side of the empty seat. .

The way the dress doll collects the price is the most common touch method to collect the price. I don’t know if it has something to do with its violin player setting. It does not charge and will affect the function of playing the instrument. All players’ vision, hearing, cardiopulmonary function and hands and feet The functions have been retained, which has greatly improved the overall survival rate of players.

The price for Jiang Wenyuan's being taken away was half of his liver function and all of his gallbladder function, which would basically not affect his actions.After gaining freedom of movement, Jiang Wenyuan and Zuo Zhiyan confirmed the location of each other's rings.

The dress doll returns to the empty seat at the round table, picks up its miniature violin, and resumes playing the music.The melodious sound of music reaches every player's ears clearly. This doll, which has not said a word from the beginning to the end, plays until the end of the 60-second countdown. Players off.

After switching to the game world, the violin music played by the doll was still echoing in Jiang Wenyuan's ears, which was very exciting.Jiang Wenyuan looked at the players around him. From their expressions, he could tell that their moods were similar to his.

Players gathered in front of a long-abandoned school, on the school gate already overgrown with vines and vegetation, there was a sign with peeling paint, Evergreen Music High School.

"Thank you alumni for participating in this activity of reminiscing their alma mater! I am the person in charge of this activity, Zhou Zhang of the 76th class." A man in a suit and rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose said to the players.He looks about 30 years old, with a refined face and a decent manner of speaking, which is easy to make people feel good.

Zhou Zhang said emotionally: "Unknowingly, our alma mater has been abandoned for ten years. In order to recall the glory of Changqing Music High School. In this activity of reminiscing about our alma mater, we will live in the abandoned alma mater for five days. Except for the fixed actions every day, the rest of the time is free for activities. Please use video, audio or text to record the life of these five days. After the event is over, we will collect your materials and make a commemorative issue The program was posted online as a souvenir."

"Please rest assured that we have obtained the permission to enter the school and cleared out the dormitory a few days ago. The water and electricity supply are all right, and the ingredients and cooking conditions are also complete. It's just that due to budget problems, we have not hired no cooks to cook, so We need to do our own meals for three meals a day. But I believe that this little difficulty will definitely not trouble us!" Zhou Zhang's arrangements are very appropriate, basically taking care of every aspect.

However, Jiang Wenyuan always remembered that this was the game world. He happened to be standing close to Zhou Zhang. After carefully observing Zhou Zhang's hands, Jiang Wenyuan found that there were several calluses on Zhou Zhang's hands. cello case, it is not difficult to guess his current work.

Zhou Zhang picked up the cello at his feet and said to the players: "Let's go, alumni, let's return to the Changqing Music High School that educated us to become talents!"

Jiang Wenyuan didn't follow immediately, the players walked into the school gate one after another, until almost everyone had left, Jiang Wenyuan didn't move, Zuo Zhiyan walked up to him, "So lost in thought, what are you thinking? "

"I'm thinking of that violin piece that the puppet plays, which keeps playing in my head, plus the map of this round of the game is a music high school, and the guide NPC is a cello player. I don't think it's just a coincidence , there must be some weirdness in it." Jiang Wenyuan told Zuo Zhiyan his worries.

What Jiang Wenyuan could see, Zuo Zhiyan could of course also sense, that's why he didn't urge Jiang Wenyuan to enter the school, "Then what are you going to do?"

With a reliable companion around, Jiang Wenyuan's data-crazed attribute is ready to move again, "Since our identities are set to be graduates of music high schools, we should all be able to play certain musical instruments. The violin player doll is not accepted. With the physiological functions we need to play, we can create the conditions ourselves to make it impossible to play an instrument. Let's be a control group."

Jiang Wenyuan took out a Swiss Army knife, disinfectant alcohol, and a hemostatic bandage from his bag, "I'll cut a wound on your left index finger, don't worry, I'm skilled enough, and you won't feel too much pain. After the finger is injured , During the five days of the game, you can't play musical instruments in terms of prerequisites, and you can just form a control group with me."

When Jiang Wenyuan separated the two groups into the control group, in fact, he already felt that it would be safer to be in a state where he could not play musical instruments.Teaming up with Zuo Zhiyan and sharing risks, Jiang Wenyuan didn't care who was safer.What's more, if you can take this opportunity to get a little revenge on Zuo Zhiyan, a workaholic, why not do it.

Zuo Zhiyan snatched everything from Jiang Wenyuan's hands, "You should be the reference group who can't play an instrument. In case there is a situation where you need to play an instrument, instead of listening to you who have never learned how to play an instrument My ears might as well come by myself."

"This..." Jiang Wenyuan couldn't refute. There is also a small concert hall in the villa, complete with piano, violin, cello, oboe and other orchestral instruments, most of which Zuo Zhiyan can play, and is very proficient.Jiang Wenyuan could only stretch out his left index finger towards Zuo Zhiyan, "Then you should be gentle and don't cut too deeply. After the game is cleared and returned to reality, there is still a lot of work waiting for me."

"Do you think I'm you?" Zuo Zhiyan ruthlessly pierced Jiang Wenyuan's secret thoughts. After disinfecting Jiang Wenyuan's left index finger and Swiss Army knife with alcohol, he wiped the first and second knuckles of his left index finger. Make a continuous, about 1mm deep wound.With this wound, Jiang Wenyuan would definitely not be able to play an instrument within five days.Even if he is forced to play a musical instrument, the pain in the wound on his finger can remind Jiang Wenyuan that something is wrong.

Zuo Zhixing cut the knife very quickly, and Jiang Wenyuan finished it before he felt the pain.After Jiang Wenyuan stopped the bleeding and put on a bandage, Zhou Zhang had already led the other players away.Jiang Wenyuan and Zuo Zhiyan packed up and ran to catch up with the large army.

Zhou Zhang didn't realize that two people in the team were left behind. At this time, he smiled and explained to a female player, "Changqing has been abandoned for ten years, neglected to maintain, the circuit has long been aging and cannot be used, the water pipes are rusted and broken, and the water and electricity are all bad. We pulled it again. In order to save costs, we set the dormitory in a male dormitory building that is closer to the main circuit main water pipe. The male and female dormitories cannot be separated, and the dormitory is set in the male dormitory building, so that you girls can recall high school accommodation I am sorry for the experience of life that left regrets."

Zhou Zhang's warm and masculine aura is extremely strong, and the young female player who was approached by him lowered her head shyly, "Senior, you don't need to apologize for this. We are already very honored to participate in this event of reminiscing about our alma mater. When we were in high school, we didn't have the opportunity to come to the boys' dormitory to find out, and now we have this opportunity, which is very good."

This young female player, Jiang Wenyuan remembered, was the fourth place in the round table, and she could be ranked fourth in a game full of old players. Her overall strength is definitely not bad.Jiang Wenyuan couldn't tell at a glance whether she had already assumed the role of an evergreen graduate under the influence of many factors, or whether she was deliberately flirting with Zhou Zhang.

In the round table game, there is also a small group of crazy players who follow the evil path of the strategy game, because the truth of the background story of the round table game is often related to the NPC in the game world. If his life is threatened, it is better to directly hit the NPC directly.

NPCs are not real people, no matter how dirty and nasty methods are used on them, they do not need to bear legal responsibility, which is much safer than facing ghosts.Although sometimes the boss is among the NPCs, causing players to lose their lives, but in most cases, it is relatively safe to face NPCs.Then the players of this faction are divided into two camps: one is to deal with NPCs directly with bloody means, and the other is to conquer NPCs emotionally and physically.

The latter also spawned a watering discussion post in the forum that Jiang Wenyuan liked a lot.

The name of the post, Jiang Wenyuan, has only been seen once, and he probably will never forget it in his life: During the dangerous period, he had sex with NPCs without condoms, LZ did not take contraceptive pills, and if he got a pregnancy test, he would come back and report to all the water friends.

Players who are well-versed in round table games are usually not poor.The host who posted the post was a good player, and her casual attitude was vividly expressed between the lines.Anyway, I don't know when I will die. If I am not pregnant, I will treat it as nothing. Even if I am pregnant, I will kill it if I am not happy, and give birth to study if I am happy.

But at the beginning, the post built a very scary high-rise building. After the host posted the post, he never replied.Whether she was pregnant or not, and whether she gave birth to a child, are all mysteries.

Jiang Wenyuan looked at the young female player who was about to stick to Zhou Zhang, and couldn't help but think of this post, so he couldn't distinguish her current state, whether she was playing with NPCs, or was affected by the game and automatically assumed the role of a school girl .

Zhou Zhang brought twelve players to the dormitory, "There are three dormitories available here, and each dormitory is for six people. We have a total of 13 people, three girls and ten boys. One of the dormitories is divided between girls and boys. Divide the two dormitories equally. Do you have any opinions?"

As far as the player itself is concerned, the defense between men and women is not worth mentioning in front of life.One of the female players was bound into the game with a certain male player. She wanted to have sex with her teammates. She wanted to refute Zhou Zhang's decision, but was stopped by her teammates in the end.

Jiang Wenyuan only needs to share a dormitory with Zuo Zhiyan, it doesn't really matter who the rest of the roommates are.

Since Zhou Zhang, the guide NPC in this round of the game, feels very good, and he is the only NPC in this round of the game, the male players are quite happy to share the dormitory with him.After some scrambling, Jiang Wenyuan, Zuo Zhiyan and two other male players lived in the same dormitory, and the remaining five male players lived with Zhou Zhang.

After the players settled in the dormitory, Zhou Zhang organized everyone to have a meeting in the dining hall next to the boys' dormitory.Just as Zhou Zhang told them, the dining hall was cleaned very clean, and it will be their daily dining and meeting place from now on.

After everyone arrived, Zhou Zhang put some materials on the table, "These are some old souvenirs we collected from our past teachers, let's take a look together."

Most of these memorials are photos, and there are several medals and trophies, all related to music.

The male player sitting next to Jiang Wenyuan found a Polaroid photo among those photos. He picked up the photo, and there were several teenagers in the photo. They were wearing short-sleeved summer clothes, gesticulating at the camera, and smiling happily. The time is marked in the lower right corner: 1976..8.12, it should be a photo taken during the summer vacation.Turning to the back of the photo, there is a line written in charcoal on it: We have had a great year, haven't we!

The male player who picked up the photo shared the dormitory with Jiang Wenyuan, they exchanged names, his name was Liancheng.Liancheng looked at the photo with a look of nostalgia on his face, and he opened his heart and said: "During the summer vacation in high school, I and some buddies invited girls from the same class to play in the amusement park. I played a prank on the girl my best friend liked in the haunted house. I accidentally made her cry, and then my best friend and I had a big fight, and we all broke up. Looking back now, that time was really the happiest time in my life. We finally went to the amusement park together Just kidding, I must have lost my mind to make such a boring prank. If I could turn back time, I would definitely cherish that time..."

After Liancheng started, several players also expressed their feelings and shared their good time during the summer vacation.Like Liancheng, they also left regrets during that good time, expressing regret for why they did that at that time.

Zhou Zhang was also very happy to see everyone discussing in full swing, "When we organized this event, we once visited the old principal. The old principal said that when the school was abolished, many things were left in the school. Take a walk around the campus to pan for gold. I have already seen these things, you can watch them first, I will prepare lunch, and let everyone taste my craftsmanship. Fang Chun, can you let go of my arm?"

Fang Chun was the female player who was staring at Zhou Zhang just now. She stood up and said, "How can I let the senior cook lunch for 13 people alone? Let me help. My cooking skills are very good."

Zhou Zhang thought so, so he didn't refuse Fang Chun's help.

After the two left, the remaining players continued to discuss the fond memories of high school summer vacation in full swing.

Jiang Wenyuan didn't participate in the discussion, but he missed listening to their chat. At this time, Jiang Wenyuan noticed a player.He was wearing a shabby winter coat, his skin exposed outside the clothes was dark and dark, and his hands were very rough. He looked like a heavy manual laborer.He kept shaking his legs impatiently. After waiting for a few minutes, he found that everyone had no intention of stopping the topic of high school summer vacation. From high school!"

The player's words successfully destroyed the warm atmosphere at the dinner table, and the dinner table fell into a brief silence.

A female player with big wavy red hair curled her long hair with her fingers. Her memory was interrupted halfway through, and she was in a very unhappy mood. After looking up and down at the male player, she used He asked in an extremely disdainful tone: "Why are you yelling, let's talk about our world, if you don't like to listen, just plug your ears! Oh, look at your shabby appearance, a poor ghost, don't you have never been to high school, jealous We have high school memories."

The male player was speechless by her words, his dark skin could not stop his embarrassment, "My family is poor and I can't afford to go to high school, so what, I, Zhang Tieniu, can stand upright and work hard for the country Contribute. It's not my fault that I didn't go to high school, so I have no reason to be ridiculed by you!"

Zhang Tieniu couldn't stay any longer. After finishing speaking, he got up and left the dining hall.After Zhang Tieniu left, the atmosphere in the dining hall could not restore the warmth just now, but became a little awkward because of Zhang Tieniu's departure.Players stopped talking about their high school summer memories and silently looked at photos, medals and trophies on their desktops.

Jiang Wenyuan had been observing the players carefully, and he did not miss Liancheng's actions.Liancheng was the first player to pick up the photo of the teenagers, which sparked the topic of high school summer vacation. He quietly stuffed the photo of the teenagers into his pocket.

Before I knew it, it was noon, and Zhou Zhang and Fang Chun had already prepared a sumptuous lunch, ready to serve.

After Zhang Tieniu ran away in anger, he never returned to the dining hall.Jiang Wenyuan took the initiative to stand up, and said meaningfully: "Zuo Zhixing and I went to find Zhang Tieniu and come back. I hope that after Zhang Tieniu comes back, everyone will stop talking so exaggeratedly."

However, when Jiang Wenyuan and Zuo Zhiyan found Zhang Tieniu, what Jiang Wenyuan said in the dining hall had lost their meaning.

Zhang Tieniu died on the short journey back to the dormitory from the dining hall——

Zhang Tieniu was lying on the ground, a pool of blood had accumulated at the throat, the dark red blood hadn't completely solidified.

Cause of death: cut throat and carotid artery, and died of excessive blood loss.

Jiang Wenyuan leaned over to check Zhang Tieniu's wound, the traces of the wound were clearly caused by sharp weapons.Zhang Tieniu couldn't find any sharp weapon matching the wound, so the possibility of suicide can be basically ruled out, that is homicide.What is the reason why Zhang Tieniu must die?
