not in love

"What did you find?"

"That card was Mi Chen's task yesterday. She has been hiding in the room to avoid all activities since she bumped me into the pool, but she still insists on completing the so-called daily tasks of the program group. It's not very strange. ?"

Yu Zhijuan frowned and analyzed,

"And there are so many things in her room, she doesn't need the shopping qualification last night."

In fact, the layout and stocking of Mi Chen’s room can almost be described as luxurious. There are two small refrigerators in the corner, one is filled with champagne and soda water, and the other is stored with essence and facial masks for skin care. , the table is also covered with elegant plush blankets, with various types of essential oils and aromatherapy consoles placed on it, and the storage basket next to the closet is also full of low-fat snacks such as dried vegetables and dried fruits. You can spend the rest of your time comfortably in this room.

It's just that when everyone came in, they were scared out of their wits by her corpse, and almost no one noticed the abundance of material in her room.

"You mean she might have been coerced?"

Lin Xie was thinking about the probability of this possibility, since Mi Chen suddenly pushed her into the water without thinking, her behavior was indeed uncharacteristic.

According to her personality and previous attitude towards Zhijuan, even if she did something wrong, she would not feel guilty. Two days ago, she used her stomach pain as an excuse to stay out of the house, not so much hiding from Zhijuan. More like avoiding someone else.

"She knew there was danger on the island,"

Yu Zhijuan kept recalling in his mind Mi Chen's look and expression when he hid behind the door and reminded him in a low voice to tell him to get out of here the day before.

"But she didn't run away herself. I guess she didn't dare, and judging by her appearance at the time, the person who watched and threatened her should be not far away."

"You think that person is hiding in the villa?"

"Yes. Otherwise, Mi Chen wouldn't have to pretend to be arguing with me at the top of his voice. She wouldn't be able to hear the man shouting if he wasn't in the villa."

"Mi Chen completed the task as required, but was killed..."

Lin Xie looked at Mi Chen who was lying in the middle. When he took the task card on the bedside table, he pulled the quilt to cover the face of the corpse. Their abilities were limited and they couldn't get more useful information from the corpse.

"Because her final value is to die in front of us, whether her mission or mine, the purpose is to transfer the suspicion of killing her to me."

"I'm afraid what the murderer wants is not to make you take the blame for him, but to make other people alienate you."

"I guess so,"

Yu Zhijuan paused, the suspicion caused by the smell of perfume is easy to clear up, but he and Mi Chen had conflicts before, and their task cards are so weird and special, even if the other guests don’t say anything, they still feel the same in their hearts. It is also inevitable that there will be some shocks.

The murderer wanted him to be alone, but it was a pity that Lin Xie was missed.

"If it was Mi Chen yesterday, there is a high probability that it will be my turn today. It will be dangerous for you to stay with me..."

"I can't leave you alone,"

Lin Xie interrupted Yu Zhijuan,

"You know it."

"..."

Seeing Lin Xie's expression, Yu Zhijuan knew that he couldn't be persuaded, so he sighed and said,

"One more thing. Last night I observed the release of hypnotic gas. It was just a small dose of ether, but because the closed room was too quiet and the temperature was warm, it was easy to make people fall asleep."

"The replacement of the doors and windows in the villa should be carried out when everyone was asleep the previous nights, so the sound of the wake-up call was so loud, making us think that we were sleepy because we were suddenly woken up... To renovate the pipes, doors and windows in the villa, a Humans can't do it."

"That's why I just said that there is no need to go downstairs. Because Cui Zhumei will not go to the island again, and the so-called program group was either a scam from the beginning, or was held hostage by someone. Now Wynne Island has been controlled by the murderer. Even if he planted bombs on the island on a whim, it is not impossible to sink the entire island... Teacher Lin, are you afraid?"

Yu Zhijuan raised his eyes and looked at Lin Xie meaningfully.

"The murderer will not sink the island,"

Lin Xie raised his hand and hung the broken hair beside Zhijuan's ear behind his ear, revealing the shining gemstone on his earlobe,

"I'm not afraid either."

"How do you know the murderer won't?"

Yu Zhijuan gave a low laugh, it seems that Lin Xie also noticed what he noticed.

"Taking so much effort to imprison you on an isolated island makes you a target of public criticism. The murderer won't do it so quickly. If I were him, I would be reluctant."

"It's not a good thing to be as perverted as a murderer."

Yu Zhijuan raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

Cui Zhumei had repeatedly emphasized that the game mechanism should not be destroyed, and Michen was still forced to do the task before he died, which was also following the rules of the game. It seems that the murderer wanted to turn Wynne Island into his own game field.

What is certain is that the man behind the scenes must have enjoyed killing people.

Facts have proved that his guess is not wrong.

Lu Youyou and the others happily rushed to the living room, picked up the tablet computer that was left on the dining table the night before, and connected the video call, but Cui Zhumei was not seen.

In its place was a man wearing a black cap and overalls.

When they went to the island on the first day, the staff who checked their luggage and returned the game props they handed in wore this overalls, and the uniform FE was printed on the peaked cap.

"Cui... Where's Miss Cui?"

Song Tiqing, who was crowded at the front of the screen, choked slightly,

"You should also be a staff member, right? We've died here, do you know that! I'm going to leave the island now, immediately, immediately!"

"Mr. Song, be safe and don't be impatient,"

The man in the black hat waited for Song Tiqing to complain before opening his mouth slowly. The brim of his hat was pulled down so low that people could only slightly see his chin with blue stubble.

"We have seen what happened to Ms. Mi Chen through the camera. I'm sorry for causing panic to everyone. The program team will send someone to deal with it immediately..."

"What's the deal with it? Do we want us to stay here? We're going to the island, and shouldn't you call the police? What does it mean that the program team sent someone to deal with it?"

Xu Ruqing interrupted the black hat in dissatisfaction. From what he meant, it seemed that the program crew didn't think Mi Chen's death was such a serious matter. This made the guests present feel very uncomfortable and even shuddered.

"And Cui PD? Didn't Cui PD come back when the weather gets better?"

The female singer also asked anxiously.

"Please calm down, everyone,"

The black hat explained unhurriedly,

"Cui PD's family has an urgent matter, so she rushed back to Korea overnight, but before she left, she had already communicated with us about the upcoming program arrangement..."

"Can't you understand human language? We are going to the island! No recording!"

Song Tiqing was about to crack the table open,

"Someone was killed on your show! Mi Chen was poisoned to death! It's not an accident, there are murderers on this island!"

"...Congratulations to Mr. Song for getting today's shopping qualification."

The tone of the man in the black hat suddenly rose, but his words caused everyone in front of the computer to fall into confusion.

"What, what do you mean, you?"

Song Tiqing shook his head in bewilderment, and smiled angrily,

"You don't want to say that I killed Mi Chen, do you? What? Could it be that my mission is to kill Mi Chen? What kind of shopping qualification do I kill for?"

"Mr. Song, you are so excited. In fact, starting today, you will enter the second stage of FE. Everyone must have heard of the script killing. As you can see, there are dead people on the island. You are both detectives and suspects." People, the player who can find the murderer and punish the murderer will win directly, and at the same time, if Mr. Song draws the correct conclusion related to the deceased just now, he will be eligible for shopping."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

Xu Ruqing was stunned for a long time before turning to Song Tiqing in panic,

"Drama, script killing...? Mi Chen is not dead? Is this immersive script killing?"

"What's the use of asking me, how would I know!"

"But didn't you go to see the corpse? Is it real or fake? Is Mi Chen dead?"

"I, I just took a look, but I didn't see it clearly! Didn't Lu Youyou see it too? She was the first person to find the body, why didn't you ask her?"

Song Tiqing said unhappily.

He cared more about what the black hat said he had come to the correct conclusion?It means that Mi Chen was really poisoned to death?

"Hey, Lu Youyou, can you see clearly? The corpse is actually fake, right?"

Xu Ruqing looked at Lu Youyou again.

"I... I'm not sure, I saw her lying on the bed and foaming at the mouth, it was frightening to death... Besides, I have never seen a dead body, how do I know if it is real or not?"

"...What's the use of the two of you! You were so frightened that you even went to the toilet to vomit, but you couldn't even tell if the corpse was real or not!"

Xu Ruqing complained.

"Then the corpse is lying there anyway, why don't you go and see for yourself?"

Lu Youyou's words made Xu Ruqing speechless. He was afraid that everyone would vote to send him to investigate the corpse, so he could only deceive himself and others to conclude,

"I think we were making a false alarm. The program team has said that now it's changed to the script killing mode. Mi Chen must have colluded with the program team. Isn't she going to join the team soon? Maybe it's because the schedule can't be opened. I have to go first, so the program crew simply set her as the deceased. Brother, am I right?"

In fact, most people know whether Mi Chen is dead or not. Once they see a corpse, they can realize that it is definitely not a prop.

It's just that the current situation of the guests is too passive, and no one wants to have anything to do with the murder case. At this time, when the program group throws an olive branch, they will naturally choose to accept it and jointly whitewash the peace.

"You don't have to worry about this problem,"

The man in the black hat who watched their quarrel with relish finally spoke again,

"For everyone, it doesn't matter whether the corpse is real or not. The important thing is to find the murderer and punish him. Starting today, the daily mission will be cancelled, so everyone can only be eligible for shopping if you actively participate in the search and reasoning. However, every day The game will continue, and the winner of the game can still regain 'freedom'."

"Hey, the program team has said so, it must be false,"

Xu Ruqing comforted everyone by saying,

"Now that scripts are so popular, the program team must want to catch the heat. Don't be afraid, everyone. As I said earlier, there must be someone with a special identity for so many guests, and the murderer is the person with the special identity."

"Do you have any questions?"

The man in the black hat laughed,

"If there is no problem, everyone can start their own investigations."

"Wait a moment!"

Lu Youyou habitually raised her hand to ask questions,

"I have another question... You said just now that you want to find the murderer and give punishment, right? I can understand finding the murderer, but what counts as punishment?"

"Miss Lu's question is on point,"

The man's face was almost completely covered by the shadow cast by the brim of his hat, but he could still tell from his tone that he was smiling at the moment,

"This is also a puzzle for everyone to solve. For a murderer who poisoned Miss Michen to death, what do you think is punishment?"
