Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 790 She saw it

 “Dong dong dong.”

There was a knock on the door. After a while, the sound of slippers approaching was heard from the door. A female voice asked cautiously: "Who?"

Yu Xing let himself ignore the rancid odor that hit his face, and said in a normal and polite voice: "Excuse me, is this the guide Gao Yiling? We are tourists who just arrived in the town today, are you in charge?"

Upon hearing this topic, the people inside seemed to relax. The door was opened a crack, revealing the face of the girl who was arguing with someone downstairs just now.

The girl was still a little worried. She froze for a while, and then she let go after confirming that the people outside were not evil-looking. "Yes... I should be responsible. I'm sorry, I delayed your play because of personal matters."

“I have always been the only guide leading this group in Nanshui Town, and the travel agency can’t replace you. It’s all my fault…”

"It's okay, we saw what happened downstairs." Yu Xing smiled at Gao Yiling, who was only as high as his chest, "It's a bit strange, so we thought of coming up to have a look."

Gao Yiling's eyes were dim. She naturally understood what "a little strange" meant.

 Given the situation in her family, she almost didn’t know what to do.

“Lingling, who is here?”

Suddenly, a weak voice came from the room. Gao Yiling suddenly came to his senses, turned around and said loudly: "Dad, it's okay, my visitor is here, you can sleep in your bed."

Is there really anyone?

Yu Xing's eyes flashed, and he turned his body sideways without any trace, giving a wider field of vision to the nightmare beside him.

He could see the living room behind Gao Yiling. The living room was in a simple style. Many of the furniture were made of wood and had little decoration. The sofa was against the wall and there was no one on it.

“Since you are a guest, please invite me into your home and stand at the door...cough cough cough cough cough..." After an earth-shattering cough, the voice continued, "What does it look like?"

"Oh, yes, yes!" Gao Yiling then remembered to invite people into the room. She smiled apologetically, "Come in and have a rest. I remember that the meeting time I informed you was three o'clock in the afternoon. Here I have something to do before, but you can come to my house to sit and rest for a while, it’s warmer at home than outside.”

 The three of them were put into the room. To be honest, the room was no warmer than outside.

Gao Yiling was wearing a very thin top and a skirt underneath. In a town where many people froze to death, her presence was quite intrusive.

Yu Xing sat on the sofa and looked down at the coffee table in front of him.

 The wooden coffee table is not very clean. There is some oil residue on the surface. In addition, there are large and small holes. No matter how you look at it, it is no longer suitable for continued use.

Hua Subai and Yan sat beside him, one on the left and the other on the right. They were very conscious of guests and did not touch things casually.

Gao Yiling brought a teapot and a few cups, and they were not empty: "If you want to drink water, you can pour it yourself. I have to take care of my dad, so I'll excuse you first."

With that said, she turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

She opened the bedroom door and closed it again. Due to the angle, Yu Xing and others were unable to see clearly what was going on inside at that moment.

"...Strange." Nightmare whispered, "Although her father made a noise, it doesn't smell like it can accommodate a living person. I still prefer that her father is dead."

How do dead people speak?

It just so happens that what deducers see the most is dead people talking, talking in different ways.

“Haha, the whole room is full of dead air. I advise you not to drink this water.” Hua Subai pushed the teapot away in disgust and wiped his hands.

  【The current main task has been completed】

The system suddenly popped up, and this time Yu Xing heard the cold mechanical sound again.

 However, after the completion notice appeared, no new tasks were given.

"It seems that the new mission will be triggered after three o'clock in the afternoon. Before that, it is more worthwhile to go to the town. Maybe you can encounter side missions." Xiang thought thoughtfully, "But the guide is also very interesting. I care." Yu Xing straightened the folds of his clothes, put the painting tube he carried with him, and thought for a moment: "Although the weirdness in this room is obvious, I don't feel any malice. In this case, I think more. Look at what's going on in the bedroom."

 It was the "dad" who asked Gao Yiling to invite them in. If there was no malice, then why?

Xiang suddenly thought of something: "Leave it to me to see!"

Yu Xing looked at her.

"I'm a woman. It's easier for me to be trusted than you in this situation. Just wait!" Xiang stood up confidently and went directly to the bedroom door to knock on the door.

“Guide, it’s embarrassing for us to sit here. In fact, I used to be a caregiver. Is there anything I can do to help?”

After a while, Gao Yiling opened the door in surprise, holding a wet towel in his hand: "Have you ever been a nurse?"

 She looked at the cool appearance of Miss Wolf Tail: "...I really didn't expect it."

"Of course you have to dress up according to your mood when you go out to play. I didn't do that when I was a caregiver." Xiang shrugged, her eyes starting to drift behind Gao Yiling, "Let me help you."

The bedroom is not large, and the bed is empty. However, there is a rather heavy wardrobe next to the door, blocking the corner farthest from the door.

She saw two thermos bottles and a washbasin over there, with steam rising up from the basin.

 It must be there!

Damn it, if she could only take two more steps in, she would be able to see the blind spot.

She was already prepared to be rejected by Gao Yiling. She just used this method to win the opportunity to take a look at the bedroom, but she happened to be unable to see it, which made her somewhat unwilling.

As a result, Gao Yiling's eyes lit up: "Thank you so much. I always feel that I don't take good care of myself. Please come and teach me how to take care of patients."

 Speaking, he held Yan's hand affectionately and walked inside.

At this moment, Nightmare had an unpleasant feeling, as if she was a prey that had fallen into a trap. She quickly turned back, trying to wink at Xing.

However, at this moment, she was struck by inspiration. The entire living room was like a peeling photo. There were spots of mildew on the walls. The floor was filthy, with pus covering it deeply and shallowly. The sofa where Yu Xing and Boss Hua sat on Wriggling insects crawled out of the floor, and the coffee table was occupied by dense maggots.

 There was a maggot lying on the mouth of the teapot, twisting and turning, and then fell in the next second.

 “Holy shit!” Yan blurted out a curse word, and her stomach churns, especially when she saw Yu Xing and Boss Hua sitting peacefully, as if they were unaware.

She did not actively use her ability to see this time. Instead, her ability was affected by the changing magnetic field when she entered the bedroom, and she passively perceived the appearance of this space.

Gao Yiling didn't seem to hear her angry swear words, and still pulled her through the door. She struggled subconsciously, but found that Gao Yiling was so strong.

 Generally, this kind of huge strength that does not match the appearance is exclusive to ghosts...

A towel was stuffed into Xiang's hand, and Gao Yiling closed the bedroom door directly.

 The girl's smile became more sincere: "Please?"

 Outside the door, Hua Subai sat up straighter.

"Did she look at us just now?" Yu Xing raised his eyebrows.

The eyes that were originally just meant to warn, but turned into shock and disgust in an instant, obviously saw something different.

He glanced behind him. There was only a bare white wall behind the sofa.

There seems to be nothing worth being embarrassed about.
