deadly round table

The source of the syncope symphony was the parade performance plan of Evergreen Music High School in the summer vacation of 1976.

The marching band proposed to the principal to perform their piece, the Syncope Symphony, in the school's music hall.The horror of the Syncope Symphony need not be repeated. The Evergreen Music High School held a parade performance to promote enrollment. How could it be possible to agree to play the Syncope Symphony.

In that era, it was unbelievable for students to rebel against the school, and Evergreen Music High School was not at fault in this matter.Why did the members of the marching band openly act against the school unreasonably, and based on other sources of mental pollution derived from the syncope symphony, it can be known that the marching band not only played the syncope symphony in the music hall, but also in public During the parade performance, the Syncope Symphony was also played.

So who is behind the birth and performance of the Syncope Symphony?

Jiang Wenyuan once saw a group photo of the marching band in the parade performance plan in the principal's office. This group photo is also one of the sources of mental pollution.At that time, Jiang Wenyuan just glanced through it quickly, and after confirming that there was no Zhou Zhang in it, he clipped the photo back into the proposal and did not read any more.During this process, Jiang Wenyuan did not confirm the number of people in the group photo, because the plan clearly stated that the marching band had [-] members.

But in the music auditorium, Jiang Wenyuan clearly felt something strange.

On the stage, there are a total of thirty chairs, and on each chair is a musical instrument with the words "Symphony of Syncope" printed on it.Needless to say, these instruments are the instruments of the marching band.Because of this, Jiang Wenyuan discovered that a person had been forgotten.

In addition to thirty members of the marching band, there is also a conductor.In the group photo of the marching band, the conductor did not wear the uniform of the orchestra with the performing members, but wore a complete white suit and a formal bow tie.The member of the conductor looks about 25 to 30 years old, holding a baton in his hand. He should be the instructor of the marching band.

The conductor is an indispensable soul of the orchestra. Why is it recorded in the plan that the marching orchestra has [-] members instead of [-] performers plus a conductor?

Starting from the information of this deviation, two possibilities can be analyzed. First, an unknown object has been mixed into the performing members; second, the source of the fainting symphony is the conductor in white suit.

Although Jiang Wenyuan hadn't seen the photos to make a final decision, he was more inclined to believe that there was something wrong with the commanding members.Because the conductor is the core figure of the orchestra, coupled with his dual identity as an instructor, it is very difficult for the performers to go beyond his authority to promote the Syncope Symphony.Therefore, there is a high probability that the problem lies with the commanding members.

No matter how strong things are, there will be weaknesses. The eye of the storm is the calmest area in the center of the cyclone.The collective photo of the marching band that records the abnormal members is likely to be the eye of the storm in this round of the game.Finding the group photo and destroying the abnormal existence in the group photo is the last way Jiang Wenyuan can think of now.

But Jiang Wenyuan still had an extremely fatal matter in his heart.Zuo Zhiyan, as the betrayer of this round of the game, has already learned the complete story background before entering the game. Although the round table game only provides the story, not the solution to the story, but with the wisdom of Zuo Zhiyan, he can easily Deduce all possible customs clearance methods for ordinary players.Jiang Wenyuan could think of the group photo of the marching band as a shortcut to pass the game, and Zuo Zhiyan must have imagined it too.

After Jiang Wenyuan saw the group photo of the marching band, because it is a source of mental pollution, even if he wears it on his body and does not look at it, it will continue to have a negative impact on the spirit, so he put the group photo in front of Zuo Zhiyan again. Back to the plan.Jiang Wenyuan went to the principal's office again this time. In fact, he basically didn't have any hope of finding that group photo. He went here just to make himself give up and then find another way to clear the game...

But Jiang Wenyuan never imagined that he would find the group photo in the proposal in the principal's office.The moment Jiang Wenyuan saw the group photo, his mind was completely bewildered. He couldn't help doubting his own judgment. Isn't the group photo the key prop to pass this round of the game?Otherwise, how could Zuo Zhiyan make such a serious mistake and not take it away?

Jiang Wenyuan took out one of the dolls given to him by Yongqian from the special space. This is an old man doll missing two arms. It has a special ability: to judge the object in the player's hand, among all the customs clearance props in this round of the game ranking.

Because the special ability of the armless old man doll can only be evaluated for the props that the player has already obtained, and this kind of evaluation is basically meaningless. Those who can find the props for clearing the game have a considerable degree of control over the background story of the game , so this special function is really tasteless.Jiang Wenyuan posted it on the forum and sold it for a long time, but he couldn't sell it, so he brought it into the game without any other choice.Jiang Wenyuan didn't expect that he would use this doll one day...

When the armless old man doll disappears in the dots of fluorescent light, the special ability takes effect, and it is judged that the group photo of Jiang Wenyuan's marching band ranks first among all valid customs clearance props in this round of the game.

When the result came out, Jiang Wenyuan was stunned.

With Zuo Zhiyan's rich game experience, Jiang Wenyuan does not believe that he will not be able to deduce the importance of the group photo of the marching band when he has full control over the background story.Zuo Zhiyan will not make the mistake of knowing the importance of group photos to ordinary players, but forgetting to take them away.Therefore, the conclusion can only be that Zuo Zhiyan deliberately left the group photo.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wenyuan's tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Zuo Zhiyan killed Jin Xin with his own hands and allowed the source of mental pollution to kill other players. Zuo Zhiyan has indeed made up his mind to clear the game even if he wants to kill Jiang Wenyuan.But Zuo Zhiyan's awareness has a premise. The premise is that Jiang Wenyuan can't stand firm in this game, and is blinded by their relationship in reality, so he can't discover the truth of the game.

Before Zuo Zhiyan made the resolution to clear the game as a traitor, he also made another resolution: If Jiang Wenyuan would not be confused because he became a traitor, but could still see through the truth and have enough ability and determination to pass the game Round table games, then he is willing to give up the chance of survival to Jiang Wenyuan.

When Jiang Wenyuan was able to discover the abnormality of Zuo Zhiyan, he protected his spirit from being polluted, and visited the music auditorium again, and found the abnormality of the marching band, so he found the group photo again in the principal's office.This group photo of the marching band is Zuo Zhiyan's silent confession to Jiang Wenyuan——

I hope my sacrifice was worthwhile.

Jiang Wenyuan was holding a Swiss Army Knife, the tip of which was hanging above the group photo. His palms were full of sweat, and he was still unable to destroy the commanding part of the white suit in the photo.He could hear the sound of footsteps gradually approaching the principal's office, and the visitor walked into the principal's office at a leisurely pace.

Compared with Jiang Wenyuan, who has no image of crying bitterly, Zuo Zhiyan is still the perfect image of a social elite in Jiang Wenyuan's heart. His calm appearance reminds Jiang Wenyuan of the first time he saw Zuo Zhiyan .Zuo Zhiyan always performed so perfectly, even when the two had to face the desperate situation of life and death, he didn't shed a single tear.

Zuo Zhiyan calmly looked at the group photo of the marching band under Jiang Wenyuan's knife, "You found it."

Jiang Wenyuan didn't know what to say, his lacrimal gland seemed to be broken, and he couldn't stop his tears no matter what.

"It's almost time for us to say goodbye. I still have a few words to say to you." Zuo Zhiyan took a deep breath, "I have been thinking about a question since I entered this round of games. Keeping the style of a solo player, will it not be so difficult to make a decision if I meet you in a life-or-death situation. I think about it when I am awake, and I also think about it when I am asleep. Jiang Wenyuan has never regretted it Together with you, we will establish the Blue Bird organization."

Jiang Wenyuan might have a lot of things he wanted to say to Zuo Zhiyan, but Zuo Zhiyan didn't give him a chance to speak. He walked up to Jiang Wenyuan in a few steps, pressed Jiang Wenyuan's hand holding the Swiss Army knife, and pressed down hard. Stab into the center of the white suit conductor.The blade of the Swiss Army knife sinks deep into the photo, but instead of protruding from the table below it, it plunges into a void that feels to the touch like a mass of rotting muck.Amidst the terrifying screams of the commander in the white suit, a large amount of black mist poured out from the commander in the white suit's wound.

Zuo Zhiyan and Jiang Wenyuan got very close, facing each other, the distance between them was less than ten centimeters.

Zuo Zhiyan said to Jiang Wenyuan silently with his lips: Some Betrayer players have found a way to communicate with the round table game. Originally, the Betrayer player and the Betrayer player prostheses on the round table did not share their senses. Now the two You can already share your senses. This is how I know the location of your ring.Be very careful.

After explaining this sentence, Zuo Zhiyan let go of Jiang Wenyuan's hand, took a few steps back, and turned to leave the principal's office.After walking out of the principal's office, Zuo Zhiyan turned his head and glanced at Jiang Wenyuan, "Actually, I..."

Black veins spread from Zuo Zhiyan's neck to his face, he didn't continue, turned his head and left the principal's office.Jiang Wenyuan slid and sat on the ground, the group photo of the marching band disappeared in the lighted dots of fluorescent light, and the doll of the violinist took shape in the fluorescent light.But the mental pollution of the syncope symphony was still raging in Jiang Wenyuan's mind, clamoring for him to commit suicide quickly, he was the one who killed Zuo Zhiyan, what right did he have to live?

Looking at the doll sitting on the desk, Jiang Wenyuan now has two choices: follow the temptation of the syncope symphony, commit suicide and apologize; pick up the doll and pass the round of the game.

But Jiang Wenyuan's path has been blocked by Zuo Zhiyan. Zuo Zhiyan told him the information about the betrayer player. No matter what choice Jiang Wenyuan makes, Zuo Zhiyan will definitely die.Why did Zuo Zhiyan treat him so coldly and cruelly?

Jiang Wenyuan's tears blurred his vision, his heart was like a knife, and he stretched out his hand tremblingly. The moment he touched the doll, he clearly felt that he had killed Zuo Zhiyan...

A cold and dark round table space with six chairs.

One is an empty seat belonging to the round table game, and five chairs belong to the players.Zuo Zhiyan didn't kill the other four players. In order to alleviate Jiang Wenyuan's guilt, he forced him to clear the game. Zuo Zhiyan lied.

Jiang Wenyuan turned his head and looked at the position on the right. The space was empty, and the chair Zuo Zhiyan sat on was gone...

Jiang Wenyuan regained his physical functions in a numb manner, but did not choose to return to reality or continue the next round of the game.The time in the round table space is static, there is no time difference between entering the game and leaving the game, Jiang Wenyuan does not leave here, he feels that Zuo Zhiyan may still be alive.

Jiang Wenyuan didn't know how long he had been sitting in the round table space. Suddenly, one of the player's chairs fell apart and disappeared into the darkness.Jiang Wenyuan stared blankly at the place where the chair disappeared. He had already cleared the game, why did the player's chair disappear.Jiang Wenyuan thought for a long time, and only thought of one possibility. The player was still alive when the game was cleared, but he was too spiritually polluted. After the round table game re-evaluation, his state could not be counted as still alive. So do customs clearance failure processing.

Jiang Wenyuan closed his eyes in pain, and laughed miserably. If he hadn't stayed in the round table space, he would never have known that the Jin Xin killed by Zuo Zhiyan was a player who was predicted by the round table to be unable to pass the game, and he was still alive. It was already a dead man.Zuo Zhiyan stood in the position of a traitor player, there was no need to go to the trouble of killing Jin Xin, he killed Jin Xin just to force Jiang Wenyuan to stand on his opposite side.

Jiang Wenyuan even had deep doubts——

Zuo Zhiyan never thought about living, he had already given him the chance to live.

Jiang Wenyuan slowly wiped away the tears on his face, he could no longer escape Zuo Zhiyan's death.

A long time ago, Jiang Wenyuan brought Baimei into the round table game. That was the second time he met Zuo Zhiyan in the round table game. It was also in that round of the game that Zuo Zhiyan and him decided to form the Blue Bird.

During that round of the game, Jiang Wenyuan hadn't confirmed that Baimei was Chen Mian. Jiang Wenyuan had forgotten about a small thing Baimei did, but at this moment, he remembered it again.At that time, Baimei once suspected that Zuo Zhiyan was a traitor player!

Jiang Wenyuan didn't think it was Chen Mian's unreasonable trouble wearing a white plum vest.Chen Mian left him the bone carving doll, because Chen Mian knew that he would enter the round table game; Become a Betrayer player; Chen Mian told him that he would regret not quitting the round table game, and Zuo Zhiyan's death was one of the things he would regret...

It wasn't just Chen Mian who showed his foreknowledge of the future, Jiang Wenyuan himself had a sense of déjà vu in the round table game several times.The psychiatrist told Jiang Wenyuan that déjà vu is a normal psychological phenomenon, but now Jiang Wenyuan can tell himself with certainty that his déjà vu is not an illusion, but a fact that actually happened.

Although there is no definite evidence, Jiang Wenyuan can strongly feel that he has experienced what is happening now.This also makes sense, why he hates wishing on round table games so much.Because resurrection cannot bring a happy ending, but another painful reincarnation.

Jiang Wenyuan took a deep breath and pressed the button to return to reality.

After returning to reality, Jiang Wenyuan dropped the newly acquired doll, opened the door immediately, and ran to Zuo Zhiyan's game room.After Chen Mian failed the game and returned to reality, he survived for more than half an hour.But Zuo Zhiyan, he is a traitor player.Betrayer players know a lot of things related to the round table game, and the round table game does not want the betrayer players to disclose this information to ordinary players, so the round table game does not leave the last mercy to ordinary players to the betrayer players.When Jiang Wenyuan came to Zuo Zhiyan's side, he lay on the bed as if he had fallen asleep, his body was still warm, but his heartbeat and breathing had stopped.

The round table game did not even give Jiang Wenyuan and Zuo Zhiyan a chance to say goodbye. At the moment the game ended, the round table game took away Zuo Zhiyan's life and soul, leaving only Zuo Zhiyan to Jiang Wenyuan. Talk about the empty shell of the body.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of the Lunar New Year full of festive atmosphere.

The two big bosses of Jade Bird both entered the round table game that day, and the others stayed in front of the surveillance screen without much sleep. When Jiang Wenyuan rushed to Zuo Zhiyan's room like crazy, they also rushed over.

When they saw Jiang Wenyuan fascinated by the sleeping Zuo Zhiyan, Li Na asked uneasily, "Brother Jiang, why did you come to Brother Zuo's game room? Caused a magnetic storm. Shall we go out first?"

Yi Qingzhou realized that the situation was not right, so he did not use his venomous tongue, "Li Na is right, we will be in danger staying here, let's wait for Zuo Zhiyan to clear the game if there is anything to do. And even if there is something urgent, let it go first Well, Zuo Zhiyan slept so deeply, he must be too tired, let's talk about it after he rests."

Lu Qimiao was sensitive to Jiang Wenyuan's emotions, she silently walked to Jiang Wenyuan's side, put her hand on his shoulder, and said nothing.

Jiang Wenyuan was silent for a while, then turned his head to look at the other three people in Jade Bird, tore open his wound again, and showed it bloody in front of them, "I entered the same round of game as Zuo Zhiyan, he failed to pass the level game."

The core of Jade Bird is Zuo Zhiyan, and now that Zuo Zhiyan is dead, all members of Jade Bird, including Jiang Wenyuan, think that it is time for Jade Bird to fold its wings.But Zuo Zhiyan was never in their imagination, everyone in Jade Bird was still immersed in sadness, and everything went on in an orderly manner under Zuo Zhiyan's arrangement.

Zuo Zhiyan’s funeral was already scheduled by him; Zuo Zhiyan’s game company, villas, and money from black households, he had already made a will and donated it to Jiang Wenyuan; Lu Qimiao’s custody will also be transferred to Under the name of Jiang Wenyuan, all you need to do is go through the adoption procedures with relevant departments.Zuo Zhiyan didn't worry Jiang Wenyuan and the others at all, and he had already done everything.

At Zuo Zhiyan's funeral, Jiang Wenyuan met Zuo Zhiyan's family for the first time.

Zuo Zhiyan's family was very sad about Zuo Zhiyan's death. None of them came to blame Jiang Wenyuan for taking away all Zuo Zhiyan's property.At the end of the funeral, Zuo Zhiyan's father called Jiang Wenyuan to stop him. He looked at Jiang Wenyuan for a while, and said words that Jiang Wenyuan couldn't understand, "Thank you for accompanying my son. Going through the last part of his life. After his illness was diagnosed three years ago, he has been very unhappy. In recent months, he has changed a lot, and occasionally smiles when he goes home. Unfortunately, he still can’t Overcome the disease..."

Jiang Wenyuan silently watched Zuo Zhiyan's father leave, and went back to the villa to find Dr. Ma, "More than a month ago, when I came to see you for skin problems, you and another doctor on duty were discussing Zuo Zhiyan's physical examination. Report. In fact, what you are discussing is Zuo Zhiyan’s illness, right? Now that Zuo Zhiyan is gone, you don’t need to hide it from me anymore, right?”

Dr. Ma sighed, found Zuo Zhiyan's re-examination report, and handed it to Jiang Wenyuan, "Mr. Zuo's condition has deteriorated very badly in the past six months, but he does not accept surgery and chemotherapy, and continues to work intensively without paying attention to rest. , we persuaded him to be hospitalized for treatment, but he was unwilling to accept it, and told us not to tell you the real situation. Originally, if Mr. Zuo was willing to receive treatment, he would have lived for at least a year or two, and he would not be so far away like he is now. Sudden."

Jiang Wenyuan covered his face with Zuo Zhiyan's re-examination report, blocking his broken tears, how many times does Zuo Zhiyan need him to cry before he is reconciled?

Zuo Zhiyan said that a seriously ill person can support a blue bird, there is no reason why he can't do it.Whether it is spiritual or material, Jiang Wenyuan has obtained too many things from Zuo Zhiyan, and he must not let the blue bird formed by Zuo Zhiyan break its wings in his hands——

Jiang Wenyuan didn't return Zuo Zhiyan's reexamination report to Dr. Ma, he took the report away and locked it together with the doll in the safe.From today onwards, he is the boss of Jade Bird. He will put an end to the chaotic status quo of Jade Bird, let Jade Bird fly high again, and remember Zuo Zhiyan in the posture of Jade Bird.

——Since the round table game refused to let Jiang Wenyuan go, Jiang Wenyuan would not run away, and he would not let the round table game go easily.
