Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 698 The Magician’s Deception

 In the empty conference room, two people with different thoughts were quietly arguing.

The actor's tone of voice, which said it was a pity that he didn't kill the child, made Carlos' veins jump in his forehead. His hand holding the mop pole tightened, and he still faked a smile: "Ha, the little guy is gone anyway, it doesn't bother you. Come on, why don't you tell me what you want from me, a poor cleaning worker?"

"Hmm." The actor uttered a confused syllable, "I thought you were looking for something to do with me. Haven't you been trying to get my attention?"

The little paper figures who tried to evade but failed, are like the funny cat sticks that hide their ears and steal the bell.

“I don’t understand~” Carlos scoundrel said, “I have never interacted with you, how can I try to attract your attention? The surveillance cameras are filming me. I worked honestly today and didn’t go anywhere else.”

The actor chuckled lightly: "Your paper man doesn't seem to think so."

"What paper man? What are you talking about?" Carlos took two steps to the side and put himself in the center of the surveillance camera. "I really don't understand. Maybe you have the wrong person."

The actor's eyes flashed, but he was not angry. Instead, he stepped forward, looked at Carlos's tense body, and then sighed: "You are still good at disguising details as always. Unfortunately, I stood outside the door for a long time just now to confirm your mood. Very good, you showed your flaws."

 Carlos’ eyebrows moved slightly.

However, his eyebrows are hidden under the blue hair, so this subtle expression is difficult to notice.

The actor leaned down and picked up the bucket.

 “Let me help you finish the rest of the work, and then...come with me to have a meal?”

　　The tone is that of discussion, but the smile is a determined smile.

He squinted his eyes and made eye contact with Carlos: "If you want to know something about me, I'll give you a chance to observe it in person without using paper figures as a medium. I believe you can observe it more carefully."

"Wow." Carlos blinked, looking a little surprised, "I didn't expect the actor to be so generous. In various rumors, you are a very moody and cruel person. I thought you had to hit me first. A meal…”

"Magician..." the actor murmured, "Whether the 'actor' can beat the 'magician' depends on the magician's mood, don't you think?"

Carlos shrugged, ignored the words, and continued to mop the ground.

 The actor really helped him share some of the work.

 After a while, the conference room was all cleared.

 Carlos leaned the cleaning tools against the wall, exhaled, and suddenly said: "Where is the flaw you mentioned just now?"

"Hmm..." The actor rubbed his temples, seeming a little helpless, "You have already thought of it, but you still want to ask me, is this called... a full set of acting?"

"Ah~ if a magician's magic is found to have flaws, of course he will still ask the audience where the flaws are. What if the audience is cheating him?" Every word Carlos said suddenly seemed to become meaningful. He got angry, but it was obvious that he did not intend to continue testing the actor, because the flaw mentioned by the actor was indeed fatal.

 As the manipulator of the paper man, he shares the same line of sight with the paper man.

　　When his paper man peeked at the actor writing the patrol list from a distance in front of the base gate, he naturally knew that he had been discovered by the actor.

In this case, even if he was far away in the conference room, he should feel terrified about this, instead of humming happily because of the beautiful scenery as if nothing had happened.

 Either he was sure that the actor would not come to him because of this, or he did not care about the actor at all, but after the actor knocked on the door and came in, his fear was completely contradictory.

 Ten minutes later, the two hostile people sat face to face in an empty seat in the cafeteria.

 Nowadays, there are empty seats everywhere in the canteen, and there are only a few pitiful scraps left in the vegetable bucket.

 The actor sits up straight, which is related to his long-standing habit of being elegant and reserved.

 He reached out and took off the breathing filter on his face, revealing a pointed chin and thin lips that perfectly matched his eyebrows.

In contrast, Carlos's sitting posture looked quite sluggish. He put one hand on the table and supported his chin with the other, looking closely at the actor's overly beautiful face.

The actor smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed, like a clear spring thawing, and his voice became soft and graceful: "So, what does the magician want to do by attracting me here? He doesn't just want to observe my appearance."

"It's not that I'm attracted...forget it, I am." Carlos made sure that the place where he and the actor were sitting was in the blind corner of the cafeteria. He simply took out a paper manikin from his pocket and played with it in his hand. Then, he admitted that he made deliberate mistakes several times and was discovered by the actor, "You have been keeping quiet, which makes me very scared. You know, when facing a snake, it is better to wait for the snake to suddenly appear after hiding for who knows how long. I might as well lure the snake out of its hole if I give you a bite.”

"I see, you want to know what I'm preparing." The actor curled his lips, but obviously didn't do anything. The paper man in Carlos's hand went to the actor's hand, and the actor caressed the paper man's neck with his fingers pityingly. Suddenly, with a strong force, the paper man was torn into two halves.

 Carlos took a breath, and the color on his face faded for a moment. This paper man seemed to have established a life connection with him.

 “Are you angry?” Carlos asked.

"Hmm~ There's a hint of it." A joke flashed in the actor's eyes, "If you are willing to let me destroy all your paper figures... I don't even mind forming a brief alliance with you in this deduction."

“Hey, you’re so cruel, aren’t you just trying to kill me?” Carlos raised his eyebrows. This time, as he tilted his head, his expression became much more obvious.

easy.

 When facing the actor, without unnecessary pretense, he was still relaxed and happy—even though he had just suffered some less obvious injuries because of the paper man.

He said: "How about we be honest and honest? If you don't come to trouble me or Zhao Yijiu, what are your plans?"

"In your eyes, I seem to be a guy who can cause trouble." The actor shook his head and chuckled, "If you must ask so clearly...Magician, you can be considered an old friend of mine, and I have always... cherished it. Friendship.”

Carlos decided to commit suicide at this moment: "Strictly speaking, this is the first time we have met. By the way, do you mean cherishing... just like you do to Yu Xing?"

　　The actor paused.

Two seconds later, he burst out laughing and said: "What are you thinking, magician? How could Aixing be like you? To me, he is the most special and important."

"If it's Ah Xing here, I will definitely find trouble." The actor's expression became a little distressed, but coupled with his deliberately exaggerated tone, it seemed very weird and morbid: "Catch and maim Zhao Yijiu No matter whether it’s brainwashing or not, I must give A-Xing a gift. After all, if I don’t show some presence, A-Xing won’t even look at me.”

 “Zhao Yijiu is really unlucky.” Carlos commented with difficulty.

"Who knows? Zhao Yijiu is also a very interesting child. I originally wanted him to join Monoprism, but after thinking about it, I just let him stay with Aixing. The better their relationship will be..." the actor's voice The long, genuine smile made people shudder, "When I hurt Zhao Yijiu, Axing's memory will be deeper."

At this point, the actor changed the subject: "In short, you have misunderstood me. I am just an innocent and simple actor. I really have no intention of doing anything to you in this deduction. Anyway, Xing has not been breaking the mirror recently. What does it mean if I treat Zhao Yijiao?"

Carlos roughly understood the actor's thoughts and asked enthusiastically: "What about me? You can choose what to do with me. I am just fat meat brought to you. You don't plan to maim me as a way to destroy me." The gift of the mirror?”

"But it takes some effort to **** you. I haven't had that interest recently." The actor stared straight at him with a pair of light eyes, seeming to be quite troubled, "Magician, he is one of the most difficult people to deal with... Before I’m not sure exactly when you ‘came back’, and I watched the Rookie King live broadcast that you and A-Xing attended together.”

“After reading it, I believe that you and A-Xing were indeed newcomers who had just joined the game when they met.”

"But when did the deduction start to change?" The actor lowered his eyes, raised the corners of his lips, and said in a voice as light as a whisper: "I spent some time on this, and finally, I found it in the records of the anomaly system. A backup of records called Tomb Palace.”

 Carlos applauded softly: "As expected of an actor, it's so accurate. You don't already know what happened to me in that deduction, right?"

"Unfortunately, I have indeed guessed it." The actor looked at him as if he were looking at a fun toy, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, "The timeline of that deduction was extremely confusing, and you just followed the instructions. The messed up timeline was brought back to the past from the future.”

"For this purpose, I made a special trip to the future, and then I was really sure. In the last moment of the Tomb Palace deduction, you, the magician many years later, killed yourself in the normal timeline of the Tomb Palace, and then Instead of my former self, I came to the present.”

The actor suddenly felt a little regretful as he spoke: "When A-Xing invited you to join Po Jing, you had already replaced your original self. From then on, you started running a huge scam and deceived your teammates. Fooled your enemies."

“Why can’t I do this? I also want to join Broken Mirror and deceive Xing as a friend again…”

"Stop, stop, stop." Carlos made a stop gesture, "I don't have any bad intentions. Even if I let time flow normally, I joined the Broken Mirror and gradually grew up in the Broken Mirror team. When I became a magician, you said that I was just a kid."

The magician was obviously a little troubled: "Well, I've come from the future anyway, but I still want to be with my friends... That old monster Yiqing has discovered me a long time ago, but fortunately he didn't tell anyone , Otherwise, how can I explain it to my teammates?”

"Not to mention, now I can sit at the same table with Broken Mirror's enemies and talk calmly? Yu Xing won't kill me if he knows!"

 “He can’t kill you now.” The actor reminded him with a smile.

"He can beat me to death. I have to bring myself to the point of death even if I hurt myself. Anyway, he can definitely beat me to death. Otherwise, why would I be fooling around!" Carlos covered his face in despair, "No one will do it then." Believe me, I don’t have any bad intentions, ah~~ Zhao Mou will also torture me to death..."

The actor quietly looked at a guy who clearly had the power to crush the people he was talking about, but was still worried about the attitudes of these people, and smiled with understanding.

 Sure enough, feelings are the biggest hindrance.

"Ah, when you said that I am your old friend, did you also say that from the perspective of a future actor? Because we are one of the few real-level ones?" Carlos was worried enough and put his hand down, "Including you taking me Throw it into the Ghost King's stomach once, and I'll kill all your puppets once?"

 These are all things that will actually happen in the future.

 At the end of the day, no matter what the actors say about their relationship, they are absolute enemies.

 It's just that the timeline has changed, and the future will also change. The reason why they are so peaceful now is because there is no conflict of interest for the time being, and conflicts are not beneficial to this doomsday deduction.

An actor can greet anyone with a smile for what he wants, and he can also make people’s heads fall off in an instant.

 The same goes for Carlos - you will become proficient in this kind of thing if you do it more often.

“By the way, I haven’t complained about life at the base with Zhao Yijiao today.” Carlos remembered this and took out another small paper man.

He hinted to Zhao Yjiu every day that the actor was more interested in Zhao Yjiu. In fact, it was to cover up that the actor might know his true strength and not take action against him.

The actor regarded him as the same level, and Yiqing found him particularly interesting... Carlos had to find a reason for himself.

He quickly connected with Zhao Yijiu with a paper manikin in front of the actor.

Since the actor has stated that he has no intention of taking action in this deduction, there is no need to worry too much about meaningless precautions. You can save them for next time.

"…What's the matter?" On the other side of the paper man, Zhao Yijiu remained cold and indifferent.

However, Carlos' tone changed. The ease with which he was talking to the actor suddenly turned into complaints: "Zhao Yijiu! Ahjiu... I just had dinner. I'm exhausted today. I have to take turns to choose the base." , I would rather stay in the city like you~"

Performers watch the performance of a real-life magician.

"Besides that." Zhao Yijiu said simply and clearly, "Did the actor do anything else?"

 Carlos laughed: "No, he went to patrol the base today and still broke my little paper figurine. He may not be able to tolerate me anymore."

 The actor smiles.

However…

At the other end of the paper man, an impossible voice suddenly appeared.

He was probably a little far away, and the sound came vaguely.

“Brother Jiu, is this the communication from Carlos?”

"Is he afraid of being targeted by the actor? It doesn't matter. You tell him that the actor won't touch him."

 “Why? Ha…”

“Because I’m not on the list of deducers. Why does he need to trouble you? Isn’t he looking for things to do for himself?”

 The expressions of both Carlos and the actor changed.

 This voice... is unmistakable, it is Yu Xing!

Yu Xing is back? Did you even enter this deduction? Right next to Zhao Yijiao?

Carlos cut off the contact in an instant, and almost at the same time, a strange aura wrapped around the paper man. If he hadn't cut off the contact in time, the curse would follow the paper man and go to Zhao Yijiu in the blink of an eye!

Carlos looked back at the actor who had made the curse.

The smile on the actor's face was a bit strange. His voice was very soft and he tilted his head like a puppet: "You know, peace is void."

Carlos: "How about giving me a chance to escape?"

Although he is of that legendary level, in order to disguise himself after coming to this timeline, he took the initiative to find the absurd system to suppress his abilities. At this stage, he is not as strong as the actor.

As soon as he finished speaking, the curse of the actor was already strangled, and Carlos was cut into countless pieces!

 However, what fell down was not minced meat, but scraps of paper.

 A small paper figure was destroyed in the air.

 The magician transformed people into living beings and disappeared.

I didn’t want to get stuck in this place, so I wrote four thousand words directly. There are a lot of foreshadowings, such as Yiqing’s special attitude, the actor’s special attitude, the huge space power that Yu Xing (Kalodi) saw when he established the world passage, the tomb palace Carlos' final choice and timeline changes.

By the way, Carlos is not considered a kid.

perhaps.
