Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 176 Alice in Hell (9)-One must die?

 What is rolling over?

 Or is there a dining cart that was pushed over by someone?

Everyone sitting at the long table couldn't help but have questions in their hearts, and at the same time they were made nervous by the sudden sound.

 The sudden loss of vision made them all feel uneasy.

However, before they could brew more uncontrollable emotions, the candlesticks on the long table lit up one by one. The light of the four candlesticks enveloped the surroundings of the long table, reflecting the smiling faces of the masks. , everyone was startled when they saw each other, Yu Xing even trembled when he saw Huang Bai directly opposite him.

In front of them, dishes covered by semicircular silver covers appeared out of thin air. Not only that, but also red wine, drinks, sweet soup and other drinks appeared on the table.

The aroma of the dishes emerged from under the cover, making Yu Xing's nose twitch, giving rise to a hint of anticipation for dinner.

However, other people's focus was different from Yu Xing's. At least he could see things. After a brief shock, everyone ignored the food plate that suddenly appeared and looked at the front seat.

Different from the empty chair just now, there is now a slender figure there.

 The candle flame flickered for a moment.

Suddenly, a pair of overly large blood-red eyes and red lips crashed into their eyes, and their pale corpse-like faces turned into expressionless zombie faces. In the candlelight, the lethality doubled!

"Ah um!" The girl Huang Bai seemed to be more afraid of jumpscare type shocks. She was about to scream out without paying attention. Huaiyan Jishou on the side quickly gave her a chestnut on the back of her head through the mask to stop her from screaming. Got stuck in throat.

She covered her head and shrank back in grievance. Remembering that she shouldn't make a sound to attract the BOSS's attention, she stayed still and started pretending to be dead.

The figure chuckled, but there was still no expression on his face. His scarlet eyes looked around among the eight deducers, with a vague meaning of exploration.

Yu Xing just glanced at the figure. Like others, he avoided looking at the figure for a moment, and then narrowed his eyes to look at it. This extra figure is of a normal female figure, leaning lazily on the back of the seat, playing with her long nails painted with red nail polish.

Her black hair was braided into a complicated and exquisite Western bun, with a few strands of bangs on both sides of her cheeks. She was wearing a familiar Lolita dress, still in red and black as the main color, with several reflective elements inlaid on it. A noble gem of gleaming light.

　　　…”

The more Yu Xing looked at it, the more she felt that, compared with her outfit, a small ruby ​​that accidentally dropped was not worth getting angry at. It was so unexpectedly petty.

 That’s right, this is Alice!

But…it’s Alice 2.0 with a revised aesthetic.

This time Alice has no sense of machinery at all, and her movements are smooth and natural, just like a living person. However, the pressure has not been reduced at all, but has become a little bit more weird.

"Hello, I'm Alice. Welcome to my castle - my theme park." Alice was a little regretful that she didn't find the hateful guy she was looking for, so she sat up slightly and started to introduce herself. .

 The people on both sides didn’t dare to say a word, and they didn’t support him at all.

The butler standing behind Alice's chair applauded: "Welcome."

Dutifully!

 After the steward applauded, Zeng Lai and Huai also started applauding, and then the audience heard sparse applause.

Alice seemed very satisfied and pressed her hand: "Thank you tourists for your enthusiasm. I believe that everyone has come here after a long journey and your stomach is already growling. I will not delay everyone's dining time. I am here...for you." Add a little fun to the experience.”

Yu Xing felt that Zeng Lai beside him became serious.

 Obviously, what Alice is about to say is an extra part of the rules. If you understand it incorrectly, you may die in the next few hours.

"Well..." Alice seemed to be thinking temporarily. After a few seconds, she emphasized, "Then, let's have a simple fun for the first time. Before tomorrow's breakfast, each of you must be alone. Enter more than ten sealed rooms~"

"Only the first person to enter each room will be counted as successful. After everyone enters the required number of rooms, the eleventh room will not count. What you will encounter in the room depends on your luck. I hope you can encounter something and leave a lasting impression on this trip. ”

 As soon as he finished speaking, a task prompt appeared on Yu Xing's panel.

  【Room Progress 0/10】

It shows that the completed part is 0, indicating that entering the room must start from this moment. Otherwise, his bedroom will definitely be counted as one, not to mention the utility room, electrical control room and other places that he has entered on the second floor.

Alice's tone was quite sincere, as if she really felt that encountering things was a good thing for tourists, and this request didn't sound particularly difficult, so many people secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, her next sentence announced that they were relieved. She admired the eye pattern on her nails in the candlelight: "Warm reminder... At present, in the castle, excluding the areas that require keys to open, there are seven Ten rooms.”

  “!”

The extrapolators wearing smiley masks couldn’t smile at all.

Doesn't this mean that if the status quo is maintained, there may not be enough room for several people!

Han Zhiyong, who said little after entering the deduction, asked: "What will happen if we don't enter enough rooms?"

"Not enough?" Alice asked back, staring at him with scarlet eyes, "Such inactive tourists will make me very sad, then bring the unqualified person to his monster and watch him die. ”

　　　…”

 Good guy, you can’t even run?

If only brought in front of his own ghost, the deducer may be able to barely escape with the reserve of sacrifices and props, but if there is an Alice watching the whole process, it will really be a life-or-death situation!

It turns out that the 40% of the confrontation in this comprehensive deduction is reflected here!

 From now on, at least until tomorrow morning, everyone is an opponent.

Alice, who succeeded in making trouble, saw the solemn atmosphere among the tourists, nodded with satisfaction, and stood up: "Then, these are all the rules after this meal. I wish you all a happy meal."

As soon as she turned around, Yu Xing keenly heard the sound of wheels rolling. In just a moment, the candlelight went out like the previous chandelier, and the scene fell into darkness again.

 “Gululu…”

 The sound of the wheel was loud and gradually faded away. This time, the deducers were not distracted by the unknown and began to guess - was the sound of the rolling wheel made by Alice?

 Alice’s feet are wheels, not shoes? Or...she doesn't have any feet at all?

Regarding this point, Yu Xing is naturally the person who knows the best. During the Alice Paradise period, the two-meter-tall mechanical Alice had wheels under her feet. At that time, her whole body was made of metal, and the existence of wheels was not obtrusive. But today, Alice clearly It looks like a human, but it’s still like this?

Yu Xing vaguely thought of something, but there was no sound in the darkness.

More than ten seconds later, the sound of the rolling wheels could no longer be heard, and the crystal chandelier on the ceiling lit up again, this time much brighter, dispersing the ambiguity and depression a lot.

"I can finally eat..." Yu Xing really felt hungry. When everyone else was immersed in a subtle atmosphere, he muttered quietly and looked at the dishes on the table with a satisfied smile.

At this moment, with everyone watching, Yu Xing took off his mask and put it on his lap, then naturally opened the silver mask in front of him. In front of his eyes, a sweet and sour pork loin that was very suitable for Eastern tastes appeared. The sweet aroma suddenly filled the surrounding air, making everyone swallow their saliva involuntarily.

 But...hey...Xing, who claims to be "a newcomer, I dare not say anything", why are you so calm? ?

　　It is normal to take off the mask. It is impossible for a few people to go without eating. System points can strengthen physical fitness, but it does not provide the option of living without grains. You will still be hungry when you should be hungry, and you will still die if you are hungry.

 You must take off your mask when eating, so sooner or later, their faces will be seen.

The nun also mentioned that this mask can actually be taken off at any time after checking in. Taking it off and putting it on may encounter unique dangers, so in real terms, taking off the mask does not mean anything, but it means less. The baggage on the face is removed, and the breathing becomes easier.

Just to feel safe in their hearts, everyone has been wearing masks until now.

 But this is not the point. The point is that most of them are already competing for room seats. Why is this guy named Xingde still ready to eat like he doesn't care?

 Isn’t he worried? Not in a hurry? Even if a gambler is willing to take him with him, he is not foolproof! Doesn't he have any hostility towards others? This seems very low to those of us who have already begun to think about how to plot against others...

And this appearance... is a little too superior, **** it!

 In this era, no matter what profession, complaining has almost become instinctive.

 Especially when there is danger but the danger is not urgent yet, people will talk madly in their hearts to divert their attention and consume their anxiety.

At this moment, Yu Xing became the target of their complaints.

After a few beeps in his mind, everyone took off their masks one after another. Yu Xing took a bite of the tenderloin and narrowed his narrow eyes into a slit with satisfaction, not forgetting to look at others through the slit.

There is a saying, although the three chefs in the castle don’t look normal, the dishes they cook are definitely delicious and delicious, and they are better than many chefs in reality!

Huai is a curly-haired boy, in his mid-twenties, while Huangbai is younger, a girl with big eyes and a heroic look on her brows.

Hie's appearance is plain, like an office worker rushing past on the street every day. His cheeks are slightly thin and his cheekbones appear to be a little prominent.

Han Xinyi and Han Zhiyong have both met. The former has contacted them several times, and the latter has followed them. In short, they are all familiar faces... Well, this mashed potato is also delicious.

Gambler Zeng Lai is a little younger than Yu Xing imagined, even smaller than Huai. His short brown hair is neither long nor short, his skin is a healthy wheat color, he has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is a traditional Chinese handsome guy. At this time...

 Why are you staring at me?

Yu Xing swallowed the food in his mouth and glanced at Zeng Lai in confusion.

Zeng Lai curled his lips: "Good guy, that kid Ren Yi didn't tell me you looked like this. Sure enough, he is just a strategy machine and doesn't pay attention to anything else..."

Had he known that, he wouldn't have bragged in front of Yu Xing that he would be attracted by Medusa in the late-night guild. I'm so embarrassed.

Yu Xing did not comment on this. He also greeted: "Senior, you should also eat. Only after eating can you have the strength to occupy the room."

They have all been to the fifth floor and know that even the open corridors may not be explored due to various external factors. Therefore, it is said that there are seventy rooms, but in fact it is a bit more tense.

Hearing this, Yi, who was sitting close, felt that the seat under his **** was not a seat, but a stove. He ate a few bites in a hurry, and then said to the butler standing by the long table, "I'm full, can I go?"

The housekeeper nodded: "Of course, remember it's bathing time at seven o'clock, don't be late~"

 After getting permission, Geng immediately stood up and ran away without saying hello to anyone.

 “Holy shit!” Huang Bai cursed, looking at the food and then at Sophora japonica.

Huai said: "Go and grab the room first."

Huang Bai hummed and immediately ran towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

He was heading towards the third floor, which was everyone's bedroom. In order not to waste time fighting over it, the pony-tailed girl went directly to the second floor, which had the most small rooms.

Their actions made several people unable to sit still and followed them away. Even Han Xinyi smiled sweetly at Yu Xing, stood up, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "I'm leaving first, my wise **** If you could tell me why you are not in a hurry, sir, I would be so happy..."

 She didn't finish speaking, she looked at Han Zhiyong and went to the second floor.

 At the moment, there are only three people left at the dining table, Yu Xing, Zeng Lai and Huai.

Yu Xing didn't seem to be affected at all. He picked up the soup and took a sip to soothe his throat.

Huai and Zeng Lai looked at each other and said first: "You two seem to have the confidence to complete the task of occupying the room. You can't even move?"

Zeng Lai's appetite was aroused by Yu Xing. He put a large piece of meat into the bowl and asked, "Aren't you leaving too?"

"Haha, I'm not in a hurry." Huai glanced at Yu Xing, "This...Xing doesn't look like a newcomer who doesn't know anything."

Zeng Lai thought to himself, that’s right. This man has Qu Nianqing’s guidance.

 He didn't think about it before, but after seeing Yu Xing's appearance, he suddenly felt that he understood.

 Ahem... Anyway, how could someone with Qu Nianqing's guidance know nothing and just pretend!

"I wonder why Xing is so calm?" Huai Hui said so much, but he was actually sending a signal of goodwill. He knew that Zeng Lai could understand his invitation to form an alliance. As for the result, he naturally answered this question. manner.

Zeng Lai touched the faint stubble on his chin and glanced sideways at Yu Xing, feeling that he was not panicked at all. He patted Yu Xing and said, "Hey, tell me?"

Yu Xing wiped his hands with a paper towel, raised his eyelids, and shifted his gaze from the good-looking food to the two living, inedible humans. He said slowly: "Because it's not necessary. This competitive relationship may not be established. As long as we develop new It shouldn't be difficult to get eighty rooms. What's more, some rooms are difficult to enter directly. If you don't have enough strength, these rooms will always be empty, and there will definitely be no shortage of rooms that require conditions to enter. Otherwise, Alice wouldn’t have to spend an entire night completing this task for us.”

He showed a harmless smile: "Taking a step back...even if we don't open a new area, it is normal for people to die during the exploration process. As long as one person dies, a room is enough."
