Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 170 Alice Hell (3)-Room

"Da da da…"

In the empty castle, the nun walked quietly in front, introducing the rooms she passed from time to time. Apart from her voice, there was only the slight sound of the deducers' sneakers stepping on the floor.

Yu Xing focused part of his attention on listening to the nun's tour guide's introduction, while looking at an extra page of illusory paper in his mind.

After the nun mentioned the existence of ghosts in the castle just now, he received a new deduction prompt.

 【The "Ghost Notice (Personal Version, Not Sharable for this deduction has been triggered】

 This is a page of black letter paper, with a line of large characters written in white ink on it - Ghost Notice, and lines of small characters below.

  【Ghost types: 9】

  【Encountered; 0】

  【Resolved: 0】

  【Ghost 1:? ? ? 】

  【Corresponding to tourists:? ? ? 】

ˆ【Description/Source:? ? ? (Triggered when the corresponding solution prop is found)]

  【Ghost 9: Alice at Night】

  【Description/Source: 1. A fierce ghost named Alice, who is obsessed with collecting sins for some reason and enjoys punishing sinners. Of course, she herself is not a good person. 2.? ? ? 3.? ? ? 】

  【Attack method/Special ability:? ? ? 】

  【Solution:? ? ? 】

  【Notification progress: 10%】

 【Collect three kinds of ghost information to get 1000 points reward】

  【Collect five types of ghost information to get a one-time prop reward (cannot be taken out of the deduction)】

  【Collect seven kinds of ghost information to get a one-time prop reward (can be taken out of the deduction)】

  【Collect nine kinds of ghost information to get a sacrificial reward (can be brought out for deduction)】

A very long piece of paper recorded a total of nine kinds of ghosts. Now Yu Xing looked at it, except for the large question marks, there were ruthless "0"s. Only Alice's column, due to past contacts, was barely clear. Strongly written 10%.

And it’s a surprise that if you collect notification information, that is, if the notification progress reaches 100%, there will be additional rewards.

Listening to Huangbai’s already anticipated tone and systematic phrasing, Yu Xing guessed that this should be a new addition to the differentiation-level deduction game, perhaps in every deduction.

 “This is your room.”

Just as he was thinking about it, the deducer had followed the nun to a long corridor.

 The corridor is circular in shape, with flat red cashmere carpets and doors far apart. Oil paintings, wall lamps and other decorations are hung on the wall opposite each door.

"There are a total of ten rooms here. You can choose your own accommodation. However, you cannot change it after you confirm it."

The nun blinked her dark eyes, held the rose in both hands, and bowed slightly to them: "Now is the free time for all tourists. After choosing your room, you can look at the time schedule and get familiar with each other, or you can Go to various parts of the castle to search for props. I need to remind you that the ghosts have already started wandering around the moment you enter the castle. Maybe you have seen them before you realize it. ”

Her words made the masked deducers stiffen, and they instinctively recalled what they had just seen.

There seem to be oil paintings, sculptures, medieval armor decorations, mirrors, etc...

Who can remember this?

Yu Xing was not distracted by the nun's words, but noticed something else.

 There are eight tourists in total, why do we need to generate ten rooms?

Judging from the nun's tone, at least she doesn't live here, so the housekeeper and the chef she mentioned are most likely not going to live here either. So what's the use of the two extra rooms.

 Qu Nianqing told him that the difficulty of differentiation-level deductions has soared. If this is the case, then all the details that were not noticed in the deductions that he has experienced must be remembered now.

The nun looked at the silent tourists and said expressionlessly: "Don't forget to go to the hall to eat on time. I still have things to do, so I must leave first."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the tourists to react, she turned around and walked towards the other end of the corridor. She was soon obscured by the curvature of the corridor, and her back could not be seen.

"Then choose a room first." Huai said casually, and then walked to the fourth room from the beginning. He already put his hand on the door handle before turning to look at others, "Are you okay?"

“Then I want the fifth room!” Huang Bai jumped up and followed him, with a bit of a fan attitude, but he didn’t know how much of it was true or false.

She opened the door without any hindrance, suddenly turned around, looked at everyone and asked: "Aren't the brothers and sisters who didn't introduce themselves just now... don't you want to say hello to everyone?"

Yu Xing understood that she was planning to find the person who cut the throat and take targeted precautions.

There is nothing unexplainable about the name of his mask, so he immediately said: "I am Lucky."

The corner of his lips under the mask curled up, and he added: "I have just been promoted, and it is my first time to advance to the leveling deduction. I don't understand anything, so I didn't dare to speak before. I hope I can survive."

 Don’t dare to speak? Or do you want to collect information quietly?

Apparently not many people present believed what he said, but since he had a good attitude, he cheerfully gave him a few symbolic words of encouragement.

Huang Bai said: "Come on, come on, survive the first time, and you will have experience next time!"

The gambler also spoke with a Northeastern accent and patted Yu Xing's shoulder generously: "You have no experience, so if you don't mind, you can follow me. I'm on the right track and won't cheat you!"

Is it the right path? Yu Xing nodded and agreed: "Thank you."

This is the first time he has met someone on the right path. Before, both Qu Nianqing and Zhao Mou were on the alienation path, while the actor and Han Xinyi were on the degenerate path.

 He has always lamented that there are too few people in the world who adhere to the right path.

And now it is indeed his first differentiation level game. It would be good to have someone as a leader to supplement his knowledge and experience on the spot. A relatively famous righteous line is undoubtedly the most suitable person among the deducers here. .

 Zie's eyes lit up: "I don't have much experience, can you help me?"

The gambler glanced at him and touched his chin: "Okay."

 The White Face, the Cutthroat Man and the Evil Ghost did not choose to disclose their identities and expressed their attitudes with silence.

At the moment, the eight people have faintly separated into several small groups. Huang Bai obviously wants to follow Huai, Gambler, Zhi and Yu Xing, who has just revealed his identity, the three of them are barely certain that they will act together.

Han Xinyi and Han Zhiyong were together, while Bai Mian was alone.

After that, everyone chose a room. The gambler chose the first room. Behind him were Yi and Yu Xing, followed by Huai and Huang Bai. Then there was an empty room, followed by Han Xinyi, Han Zhiyong, Bai Mian, and the third room. Ten rooms are also vacant.

When Yu Xing was choosing a room, a sweet and sweet voice suddenly broke in. When no one was paying attention, Han Xinyi took a few steps closer and said kindly: "Xing~ If it's your first time, I can teach you a lot~ Where do you want to live? I'll live next door to you. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me!" Yu Xing looked at her with a half-smile.

Han Xinyi actually knew that he was the convener of this deduction, so she should have thought that he had some information that no one else had. If this was publicized, Yu Xing would attract everyone's attention and he could do whatever he wanted. inconvenient. But she didn't point it out. She just refused to share information and planned to find an opportunity to get his information herself.

　　There is a saying that her petite body and soft voice are a good protective shell. If she did not say anything, few people would connect her with the perverted murderer of the throat-slitting case.

"Of course, you who can fool me around don't know anything like you said~ But I am willing to believe you. I believe everything you say." Han Xinyi even quietly took off the mask , showing him a signature sweet smile, the dimples getting deeper and deeper.

 She laughed softly: "I live next door to you, so it's easy for you to find my weakness and kill me!"

Yu Xing did not take off his mask, but replied in a gentle voice: "That's very generous of you, but there is no room next door to me."

He chose the third room. There were already people on the left and right, so Han Xinyi said "Okay" and entered the seventh room.

Han Zhiyong heard the whole process from the side and held his breath in his chest, not knowing what to say: "..."

He had no idea what his niece was thinking. He only had an intuition that told him that if he didn't take action against Yu Xing, they might really be killed by this incomprehensible young man, even if his niece was very strong.

 The niece is moved, although it is a twisted possessiveness, but Yu Xingke has no tendency to waver at all. He really does not think that his niece can pull Yu Xing to the side of the single prism.

Han Xinyi could die if she wanted to, but he didn't.

Han Zhiyong's eyes flashed with murderous intent, he stared at Yu Xing who walked in the door, and sneered.

 …

Yu Xing didn't feel Han Zhiyong's gaze. He has a strong sense of perception and has always been sensitive to it.

　　After closing the door, he chuckled and looked around the room.

The environment is not bad, with medieval luxury style everywhere, and a large bed in the middle, which looks very soft.

There is a lamp beside the bed, and there is also a lamp on the desk next to it. Generally speaking, the light source is sufficient.

　　He did not carefully search the bedroom for anything that should not be there, but after closing the door, he saw a piece of paper taped to the back of the door.

This is probably the timetable the nun wrote in advance. It says:

  【Breakfast: seven o'clock sharp】

 【Lunch: twelve o'clock sharp】

 【Dinner: 18:30】

 【Bath time: 19 o'clock to 20 o'clock】

 【Night activities: 22 o'clock to 4 o'clock in the morning】

Yu Xing combined the nun’s prompts and roughly went through the entire deduction process.

 Five hours at noon and six hours in the afternoon will have different "play" modes due to Alice's different additional rules. Nighttime is the most dangerous but also the most profitable time period.

After confirming these, Yu Xing turned his attention to the room.

Although the nun said that the clock in the hall is the only clock in the entire castle, in fact, the room is still equipped with an ancient small clock. The hands now point to four-twenty. It can be imagined that the area of ​​​​the castle is It took them about ten minutes just to walk from the lobby on the first floor to the room on the third floor.

He was thinking about the scarlet eyes in the sky outside the castle, and he checked around the room to make sure that there were no eyeballs of Alice's type hidden in some artifacts.

 Without Alice's gaze, Yu Xing took off his hood and mask and took a breath.

This mask is different from the transparent masks usually produced by the embodiment of personality masks. It has substance, weight, and its own material.

 So...it feels a little stuffy to breathe while wearing it.

Yu Xing was already weak and had difficulty breathing for more than ten minutes, which made him feel dizzy.

"It seems that we must avoid chasing battles with masks on in the future..." He coughed twice, straightened his hair that was messed up by the hood, and looked towards the only window in the room.

This window does not have a lighting function because it is not facing the direction of the outer railing of the castle. There is a faint silver reflection behind the curtains.

Yu Xing walked to the window, holding a mask to cover his face, and looked out quietly. He could only see a vast silver-gray space that he had not passed before. There were sculptures of various sizes in it. He leaned against the window. Admired the frame for a while.

These sculptures come in various forms, ranging from everyday human images to images similar to Olympus gods. However, without exception, they are all sculptures of a single individual. No sculpture has two or more individuals at the same time. .

　A total of hundreds of sculptures fill the silver-gray space. Looking down from the third floor, it is quite spectacular.

I just don’t know where the sculpture field is located on the first floor, and which stairs to go down...

Yu Xing coughed twice again and had to admit that the structure of Alice Castle was too complicated.

Following the nun around, he didn't form a topographic map from hall to room in his mind because there were too many missing areas.

He whispered: "We have to add the map as soon as possible, otherwise our movements will be severely restricted in the future."

At this moment, a cold breath crept up his back, making him suddenly feel like he was being watched.

His eyes flashed, and he immediately put on his mask again and pulled up his hood. His eyes scanned the sculptures below, suspecting that one of the sculptures had "come alive", and he noticed him at the window on the third floor.

However, after scanning around, he could not find the source of his gaze. The sculptures were some distance away from him, and the faces could not be seen clearly, let alone the direction of the eyes.

It can be said that as long as they don't move, it will be difficult for Yu Xing to find the abnormal one among the sculptures... Or maybe, all the sculptures are abnormal.

“…” Yu Xing closed the window and drew the curtains, blocking the sight that the sculptures might cast on them. However, the feeling of being stared at did not disappear. Instead, it became more intense, even rising to the level of a sense of crisis.

 There is a malice... coming.

Isn’t it because of the sculpture?

Yu Xing sighed softly and took out the [Photography Dreamland] that had been silent in the mask panel for several days.

Green smoke rose, and Yiqing's figure emerged from the smoke for the first time. He turned around in the void, and his elegant voice was filled with gritted teeth: "Are you finally willing to let me out?"

"Shh..." Yu Xing raised his index finger to his mouth, "Look around, where are we?"

Yiqing was stunned for a moment, suppressed the sadness of being imprisoned for many days, and looked around.

 He calmed down: "Other worlds?"

"Yes, there are other interesting places you want to visit." Yu Xing smiled, "You can have some fun, but... we have to solve a little trouble first."

 “Dong dong dong.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

　　Tomorrow’s update has been postponed to tomorrow afternoon
