Absurd Deduction Game

 Chapter 33 Black Rose

 Two sentences appeared at the same time, the first was encouragement, the second was judgment in despair.

The blood on the stairs of Naihe Bridge slowly spread out, revealing the stairs again.

At the same time, Yu Xing heard a woman's scream, and the fear in this scream almost penetrated the soul.

Yu Xing took off his mask, seemed to feel something in the wide eyes of the ghosts around him, and looked towards the stairs.

 “It’s him! He’s the waiter!”

 “We were deceived!”

Although the ghosts were surprised and angry, none of them came forward to attack him.

Yu Xing stared at the stairs and said nothing.

 A few seconds later, a woman appeared at the end of the stairs crying, it was Xiaoyan.

She was covered in blood, as if she had just been fished out of a pool of blood. When she saw Yu Xing’s eyes, she screamed: “Help! Help—!”

Xiaoyan's legs seemed to be broken. She staggered to the ground and started to crawl down. Just when she was about to fall directly through the gap in the stairs to the first floor, a black hand stretched out from behind her, grabbed her hair and dragged her into the darkness.

Her fingers grabbed the steps, but only left a few **** finger marks on the steps.

"ah-"

Screams rang out in the darkness, and no one knew how Xiaoyan was doing now.

“…” Zhao Yijiu also took off his mask, and together with Yu Xing witnessed a short period of the “erasure” process.

They didn’t know what was behind that black hand. In short, it was something that could kill Xiaoyan. Even if Xiaoyan tried her best to escape and survive, she still couldn’t escape the fate of being wiped out.

"If you can't save him, just try your best to avoid the same fate." Yu Xing said to the silent Zhao Yijiu, and then he saw a puff of green smoke floating from the distance out of the corner of his eye.

 The green smoke paused in front of him for a moment, and then penetrated into his body.

Yu Xing knew intuitively that this was when Yi Qing entered the Qing dream.

 The prompt of the deduction system sounded at this time.

 【About to leave the deduction】

 …

 After a period of distortion, Yu Xing heard the settlement in the darkness.

 【Deduction Tips: The confrontational deduction game "Horror Bar" has ended】

  【Exiting the deduction】

 …

The sky was bright and the wall clock on the wall started to move again. Yu Xing opened his eyes. After getting used to the dim light of the bar, standing in such a bright space, he suddenly felt bright and open.

He calmed down and regained all the consciousness in his body. He took the electric kettle and filled it with a pot of water. He turned on the switch and looked at himself amidst the sudden noise.

 Very good, no holes in the head.

The pain also disappeared, leaving only a little lingering illusion because I didn’t want to experience it again.

 He ​​sat on the edge of the bed and looked at his deduction prompt panel, which suddenly had a lot more information. He rubbed his brows and looked at it carefully.

　　【You have met the requirements for promotion to the differentiated level. The next deduction will be forcibly opened in three days. It is a special single-player deduction. If you survive successfully, you can complete the promotion】

"Well... I have enough points. There was no special deduction for promotion to intermediate and advanced levels before, so things after differentiation level should be a lot different." Yu Xing squinted his eyes and thought for a while, feeling that this is similar to online games. The updated version is the same.

 Special single-player deduction, equivalent to the process of downloading an update package.

"The time is forced to be three days later. Do you want to give the deduction time to prepare? It's a good time to ask Xiaoququ what should be paid attention to in this deduction." He quickly made up his mind to go to Baihui for information and was looking forward to this deduction. .

Then he took a look at his current persona template.

  【Personal Mask】

  【Holder: Yu Xing】

  【Basic information: Male, height 185cm, weight 65kg, age *#*# (error occurred)】

[Identity: Senior Deducer (5002/5000)]     Mask proportions: Calm 18%, Crazy 21%, Kind 9%, Gentle 9%, Indifferent 10%, Evil 8%, Casual 2%, Lazy 1%, Tough 7%, confusion 14%. 】

　　【Owner's description: After observing several deductions, I finally know what's wrong with you. This is an unkillable person, and the degree of personality alienation has exceeded the upper limit of human clear thinking, so why can you stay sane? In other words...in fact, you have no sense at all. Hiss, it’s scary to think about it. 】

 【Personality Sacrifice: &#*|*^(data error), Mingzhu Tears, Something Wrong Doll, Photography Dreamland (Weared 4/6)】

 【Personality alienation degree: 51% (personality alienation degree exceeding 20% ​​will have a negative impact on the deducer's personality. Your personality alienation is too high, please suppress your sins)】

 【Deduction Mall: Select to enter】

 【Wishlist: Number entered 1】

 【Deduction game direction selection market: select to enter】

Yu Xing didn’t pay much attention to the data other than points and sacrifices after the previous deductions. Today he took a good look and found that many things had changed.

 The most obvious thing is that in the owner's description, the system finally no longer just says "something is wrong with you".

Looking at the new description, Yu Xing laughed out of his throat without denying it to himself.

In addition, there is another data that has changed, which is the proportion of his persona.

 Madness and chaos are each increased by one percent, and kindness and gentleness are each reduced by one percent.

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows and recalled it, and found that there seemed to be no problem.

After entering the absurd deduction game, he saw ghosts much more frequently, and most of them were evil ghosts and people. He was always dealing with these things, and he would indeed be subtly affected.

but…

  Why does his personality ratio add up to 99%? Who else ate the other 1%?

 He is very interested in this, because based on his past experience, there are too many possibilities for the reason for missing one percent.

 It’s quite interesting, isn’t it?

Yu Xing looked forward, his gaze unfocused, as if he was just looking at somewhere in the void casually.

 After a while, he came back to his senses and sighed quietly.

The Horror Bar rewarded a prop called the Ghost Mask. He studied it and found that it was used for disguise.

　　【Evil Ghost Mask: Weared on the face, it can disguise the appearance as a ghost in the current deduction game, but the mask is invisible and becomes invalid when taken off. The number of usable times is 5/5】

It is a fairly useful prop, plus [Meng Po Soup (fake)] which restores the degree of personality alienation, [Alice's Ruby] which can start the Alice Hell deduction game, and [Time Imprint] which has no function at all. ], he already has four props.

It is worth mentioning that at his current level, props cannot be embedded in the personality mask, so he always carries these props with him. He took a look at the Meng Po Soup packaged in a blue box. Fortunately, This thing is not a real bowl of soup, but a translucent and different-colored pill.

Yu Xing estimated that it won't be long before Zhao Mou comes to him to buy Mengpo soup. It will depend on how much the Zhao family asks for it. If the items in exchange are sincere enough, it is not impossible to sell them.

The Zhao family should be able to find out his current living situation. He is not short of money, so the Zhao family should not do such stupid things as using money as a bargaining chip. Otherwise, they will really be disgraced as one of the three major families.

After sorting out this information, Yu Xing poured the boiled water into the cup and waited for a while until it could be put into his mouth, then he took a sip to soothe his throat.

Hmm...it's not as delicious as Yiqing's hot tea.

After rubbing his clean hair, without the sticky feeling of blood in the bar, Yu Xing sighed comfortably and was about to take off the dagger from the persona and let Yi Qing walk around and see it. In the new world, I heard a gentle tapping sound on the window.

The sound is neither too loud nor too quiet, so that he can definitely hear it without making people feel that it is offensive or destructive.

He was startled and looked towards the window, only seeing glass and no figure.

Then he chuckled: The room he lived in was not on the first floor. How could he see anyone when he looked over?

If you really saw it, it would be a horror movie, but it is broad daylight now, and even if it is a horror movie, it will not make any waves.

 “Dong, dong, dong.”

The knocking sound continued, and it seemed that he would not stop without looking. The sound was very rhythmic, and it was impossible for some bird to accidentally hit it.

Yu Xing narrowed his eyes, stepped forward, and opened one side of the window glass and screen to face the sunlight.

There was naturally no one or ghost outside, but on the outer window frame, there was a card and a black rose pressed with stones.

 The moment he saw these two things, Yu Xing's expression changed, and he decisively closed the window as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

 “I’ll go…” Yu Xing muttered, with a strange expression, and a rare hint of bewilderment and reluctance to face appeared in his narrow phoenix eyes. After more than a minute, he opened the window again.

The wind blew in, blowing Yu Xing's always pale face with a comfortable warmth. He picked up the card with a dull face and weighed between throwing away the black rose and the stone or taking it back to the house.

"Don't harm passers-by..." After muttering softly to himself, Yu Xing picked up the roses and stones, closed the window, then immediately turned around and threw the roses into the trash can as if it were hot, and then turned over the card.

There is only one sentence on the card. The brush strokes are very beautiful. The ink is not dry yet. It seems that it has just been written recently, and there is a hint of familiarity in the tone.

“Long time no see, I found you again, Xiao Yuxing, don’t throw away the flowers I gave you so quickly next time~”

　　"Don't you think you'll be tricked?" Yu Xing glanced out the window again.

He wanted to know how the man put the things on his windowsill. He had never wanted to deal with a person so much.

And will never "accept" any flowers from the other party again.

This volume is over, and the next volume will advance the main plot. One is Yu Xing’s own past, which will be selected and written in the deduction. The other is that the single prism should also have contact with the protagonist Yu Xing (˙˙) This chapter is free.
