Chapter 99 Charles’s last hope
Charles' voice was low, and his sinister gaze slid across everyone's face. In his opinion, these guys were the murderers who destroyed his flower garden.

Unfortunately, now is not the time to deal with them. This matter needs to be considered in the long run.

There is no way to deal with them until this game is over.

The players stretched out their hands and pointed silently at one player.

The player sneered and heard the footsteps getting closer behind him.

"You guys are crazy."

He was taken away after saying this. Jing Zhao glanced at the innocent player. It was useless to say anything now. The most important thing was to get the last 1% and destroy this copy.

Charles was silent, and then spoke slowly: "Your performance these days has really opened my eyes, but unfortunately, you only have one chance to be eliminated. Tomorrow night is the deadline. Guess who is the murderer? The civilians and the detectives and the wizards win. If you don’t guess correctly, the murderer wins.”

As he spoke, his voice was like a bellows and he laughed: "I hope the side with more of you will win, but tomorrow, those of you who do bad things to my flower garden will be severely punished by me. Don't think that I don't know. ”

After Charles finished speaking, he went upstairs directly.

Jing Zhao felt that Charles's last sentence was probably a bluff. The roses were so important to him, how could he let them go? If he knew they were the ones who destroyed them, he should have dealt with them long ago.

Even if it can't be solved because of the rules of the game, I will think of other ways to give them some color instead of verbal threats like now.

Liu Ming didn't pay much attention to what Charles said. For them now, it was just a normal threat. Their current goal was to spend this last night.

“I really don’t know who’s going to be picked tonight.”

The player at the front said something, which successfully made Cai Yongqi look up at him.

Cai Yongqi took a deep breath. The ghost coins and props he had on him were not enough to support him in buying props like a scapegoat doll.

He thought about using props to exchange for some ghost coins today, but he failed.

Because the level of his props is not high, most people are not willing to exchange with him, and his reputation is not good.

Back in the room, Cai Yongqi sat helplessly on his bed. How was he going to survive tonight?

I always feel that the murderer will choose him here tonight.

Cai Yongqi felt good, so Jing Zhao chose him again.

Only this time, Jing Zhao didn't pretend anymore.

Cai Yongqi looked at all the players today, so although the surroundings were a bit dark, Cai Yongqi unfortunately could vaguely recognize that it was a female player.

"You changed your identity again today to confuse me?"

Cai Yongqi could no longer survive, so Jing Zhao didn't waste any words and planned to deal with him directly.

The light brightened little by little. Cai Yongqi squinted his eyes, wondering what the light was about.

With the help of light, he actually saw Jing Zhao's face.

Cai Yongqi's eyes widened, and he was actually allowed to see the murderer's face clearly before he died. This was really ridiculous.

But this time, he could not survive to identify Jing Zhao.

Jing Zhao was also fully prepared. Cai Yongqi knew that she would come, and she was also afraid that Cai Yongqi would fight to the death.

But she didn't expect that Cai Yongqi would die calmly, and the glimmer of light floating around Cai Yongqi was not a prop, but a setting of the game.

It’s not like players haven’t used lighting props when they were in the dark before, but unfortunately they were useless.

For the last time, people actually saw the murderer's face clearly. This game is really real.

Jing Zhao reached out and tapped Cai Yongqi, watching Cai Yongqi fall to the ground in pain.

Without a trace of emotion in her eyes, she left directly and went back to her room to sleep. Everything would be over tomorrow.

At dawn, the players discovered that Cai Yongqi was dead. Many people had guessed it last night.

Jing Zhao looked at Cai Yongqi's body. Will Charles send someone over to take away the flower seeds?

She and Liu Ming looked at each other, Liu Ming nodded, indicating that he would stay here, and Jing Zhao followed the people down.

Liu Ming's figure shook for a moment and then disappeared into the darkness. He wanted to see who was dragging away the corpse every day.

Also just in case, they planned to pick up the flower seeds along the way today.

Liu Ming looked at the corpse on the ground, but it was a pity that this thing could not be put in a backpack or packed with props.

He watched those people go down and hid Cai Yongqi's body in the closet, then cleared away the traces and waited for Charles' people to come.

Liu Ming didn't wait long when he saw the servants going upstairs. They were obviously surprised when they didn't see the body.

The two looked at each other, looked around the room, and then saw the wardrobe.

When they all went to look at the wardrobe, Liu Ming appeared behind them, got rid of the servants, and then dragged Cai Yongqi's body to his own room and locked the door.

For now, Charles probably doesn't know.

Liu Ming walked to the living room and nodded to Jing Zhao as usual.

"Today is the last chance. Everyone's focus today should be on finding the murderer first."

The atmosphere among the players was somewhat silent. In this game, they did not have high trust in each other, which led to the current situation.

Lin Ke's words made several players nod.

"But now we don't even have anyone to provide information. On the last day, the detective should come forward on his own, right? If the detective is here, it is equivalent to having two chances."

Everyone started looking for the detective one after another. Chen Ying saw that it had nothing to do with her, so she stopped getting involved.

After a few minutes, Liu Ming raised his hand and said, "I am the detective."

Jing Zhao looked sideways and saw that the detective was always beside him, so did Liu Ming know her identity.

This was the first time Jing Zhao panicked after receiving the murderer's identity card, but she quickly calmed down.

Even if Liu Ming knew her identity, he should be on the same side as her since he didn't reveal it for so many days.

But Liu Ming's sacrifice was too great.

"I'm not very good at decrypting and solving cases. When the time comes, you choose the most suspicious one. I can verify your identity once, but only once. Don't waste it."

After Liu Ming finished speaking, he took back his hand and stopped making any sound.

Seeing that Liu Ming was a detective, Fang Fangyuan rolled his eyes.

Liu Ming is cooperating with Jing Zhao. Has he ever explored Jing Zhao's identity?
If he finds out that Jing Zhao is the murderer, will he protect Jing Zhao? It would be foolish to put yourself in danger of losing the game.

Fang Fangyuan thought for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Boss, do you have the opportunity to detect your identity every day?"

"Yeah, almost."

"Then who have you investigated? Tell us so that we can reduce our suspicions." Fang Yuan continued to ask.

Liu Ming replied with a normal expression: "Jing Zhao, Chen Ying, Du Chenghua."

Most people here still know the three of them, Jing Zhao raised his eyebrows.

Fang Yuan couldn't see any flaws in Liu Ming's face.

"Are they all civilians?"

"Jing Zhao is a commoner, Chen Ying is a wizard, and Du Chenghua is a murderer." Liu Ming glanced at Fang Yuan, who stopped asking.

"After excluding two, plus the three big guys, these are the only ones left."

As Lin Ke spoke, he recalled what Zhang Shiming and Cai Yongqi had said before. After all, these two people were killed by the same murderer.

They still felt that the murderer could only be on his own floor. This should be a rule of the game that Charles did not mention.

They have long been accustomed to the strange creatures in the dungeon hiding half of their words. They should be trying to figure this out by themselves.

"Okay, now let's analyze it carefully and we have eliminated these people."

Jing Zhao turned to look at Liu Ming, who showed a confused expression: "What's wrong?"

Jing Zhao shook his head: "Nothing."

It seems that Liu Ming really knows her identity and plans to take her out.

Fang Fangyuan knew that what Liu Ming said was very important to these players.

Jing Zhao cannot be solved by elimination, so he can only let Charles solve it, or he can do it himself at the last moment.

But that Liu Ming is a bit annoying. He knows that Liu Ming is from the Game Administration Bureau, and he also knows that Jing Zhao has recently joined the Bureau. No wonder Liu Ming has been guarding Jing Zhao.

Fang Fang was far from participating in the discussion. He was thinking about whether he could have a chance to take action.

Jing Zhao looked through the mall and remembered the first stand-in prop used by Wen Sifan. This prop was not cheap, but Jing Zhao bought it conveniently.

When the substitute stays here, she and Liu Ming will go to the fifth floor.

When those people weren't paying attention, they left their avatars behind, and even Fang Fangyuan didn't notice that the two real bodies had left.

Putting on the invisibility cloak, Liu Ming first took Jing Zhao to the closet in his room, then lit a fire and destroyed Cai Yongqi's body.

Looking at the burning flames, they walked straight to the fifth floor.

If Cai Yongqi's body is left, it will most likely become Charles's last hope and their biggest variable, so it must be destroyed.

A sudden fire broke out on the second floor, which shocked many people. When the servants saw the smoke, they rushed over to put out the fire. The players also went from the living room to the courtyard.

"Damn it." Lin Ke cursed in a low voice.

The players are all here, so who set the fire?

Fang Fangyuan subconsciously looked at Jing Zhao and Liu Ming. They were both there, weren't they?

The fire on the second floor did not spread, but the servant went over to notify Charles.

Charles was disturbed from his dream, and he suppressed his anger and asked: "It's so early in the morning. It's okay if your bodies are not found. The second floor was burned down. What's the point of raising so many of you?"

He angrily accused, and at the same time hated the players even more.

These annoying people, wait until tonight, and turn them all into flower seeds to relieve the hatred in his heart.

"Master, we found the charred body in a room on the second floor. Because it was too badly burned, it was too useless to be used as flower seeds."

Jing Zhao and Liu Ming heard everything clearly from outside, and these servants who could go up to the fifth floor knew a lot.

Charles held his forehead: "Don't worry about the rest. Watch out for me about the dozens of players in the courtyard. These are all my flower seeds. If they ruin my plan, I will kill them first and then deal with you." "

The servant quickly said yes.

When the servants came out, Jing Zhao and Liu Ming were already in the study.

There's nothing interesting about that cloakroom, and now it's the study and bedroom that are more suspicious.

The roses were not placed in a conspicuous place, Charles did not come out of the bedroom now, and the fire on the second floor failed to lure Charles away, so they had to be careful.

"Is there something like a darkroom?" Liu Ming asked in a low voice.

Jing Zhao thought it was possible. She looked at the bookshelf. There were many books on the bookshelf that she hadn't read for a long time, except for a few flower-growing manuals.

The door creaked open, and Charles walked in. He paused slightly, as if he noticed something.

Jing Zhao looked at Charles. Because he was still aware of his presence when he was wearing an invisibility cloak before, she and Liu Ming specially used a light rose scent to cover themselves this time.

The scent of roses blended into the study room. Charles nodded his nose and walked to the bookshelf without saying anything.

Jing Zhao held his breath and watched Charles' next move.

Charles pulled out the flower-growing manual. The bookshelf trembled, making a dull sound, and slowly split into two halves to reveal the door at the back.

There really is a darkroom.

Jing and Liu Ming followed Charles in.

Charles felt a slight fragrance blowing on both sides of him. He smelled his clothes, and it was the same fragrance as his clothes.

Without any suspicion, he walked into the darkroom and looked at the roses he had planted here.

There are only a few roses raised here, very few, but they are quite big, much bigger than in the real world, and the flowers are bright. They swayed slightly when Charles came in.

There are no scary teeth or legs. Apart from being surprisingly big, there doesn't seem to be anything special about it.

But this thing is the secret recipe for Charles to stay young.

"Good boy." Charles' voice was vicissitudes of life, and light burst out from his cloudy eyeballs, "He is mature."

Charles went to the table over there to get a knife and a plate, and Jing Zhao knew what he was going to do next.

If they want to take this rose and become younger, how can they let Charles get his wish?

Charles had just cut off a piece with a knife. The cut green stem contained something similar to flesh and blood.

Before he cut the second piece, the rose in front of him was suddenly smashed into pieces and then burned into black coals.

bang-

The plate and knife in Charles' hands fell to the floor, and it all happened before his eyes.

He clenched his fists and looked around at the empty surroundings.

"Who's here? Get out of here!"

His voice was sharp, with a sharp cry, and his body was covered with green tendons, which looked very scary.

Jing Zhao and Liu Ming did not move where they were, and finally saw the familiar broadcast.

【warn! ! warn! ! 】

[The deviation has reached 80%, the copy has collapsed, and the escape game is expected to start in five minutes]

[Game mission: Kill Charles]

[Countdown to 5:00, the game is about to start, players please be prepared]

The red siren made every player see it. This time, the last round of the game was a thriller game, and it actually meant killing the man in front of him who was in a state of rage.

Not caring about observing the changes in game tasks, the darkroom began to shake. Charles could not find them and was prepared to let them die together.

The two of them hurriedly used their substitutes and exchanged their identities. As soon as Jing Zhao opened his eyes, he had already returned to the courtyard.
