Day of Imprisonment
#246 - Second round of plot reasoning
Most people here didn't understand what the high school girl was going to do, but soon they would find out.
Footsteps came from the stairs.
In the stairwell, a horse-like face appeared.
The administrator, Old Ma, came up.
The high school girl visibly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Old Ma, whimpering a few times.
"The killer admits defeat, the game enters the second stage, huh? Why is one person still unconscious?" Old Ma noticed the Affability with a head full of blood over there. He walked over to take a look, then picked up a glass of cold water from the table and splashed it on him.
"Ah!" Affability was splashed awake.
However, it was clear that he was still a bit dazed. Half of his face was covered in blood. He looked up and stared at Luo Xi as if he had just come back to his senses.
His eyes instantly turned fierce.
The next moment, he grabbed a small metal fork from the table and lunged forward, clearly intending to fight to the death.
Old Ma pulled him back with one hand.
"Let go of me, I'm going to kill him!" Affability's face was full of madness, clearly his anger had clouded his mind, and he no longer had the wisdom and affability he had before.
"If you continue to attack other players, I will kill you in the name of interfering with the game's progress," Old Ma warned.
This time, Affability could only calm down.
And when he figured out what had happened, his expression became strange.
"The killer admits defeat? The second stage of the plot game begins?" Affability never expected this to happen. He turned his head to look at Luo Xi, wanting to ask something, but he held back.
He probably still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
"Now that everyone is conscious, let me repeat it again. If the killer admits defeat without killing anyone, the game will enter the second stage. Please note that once this mode is activated, it is mandatory and cannot be withdrawn. You must participate."
"Now, everyone can take out your job cards. Job cards do not need to be kept secret in the second stage."
At this time, the high school girl was also released, and the tablecloth in her mouth was also pulled out. She took out her job card and flipped it to the front.
Job: Enforcer.
Ability: When any player 'reports' any player, the reported person can be 'arrested'. Whether the arrested person is the killer or not, they will be eliminated (killed). However, after falsely accusing good people twice, the enforcer will lose their identity and become a civilian.
"There are indeed restrictions." After seeing the job description of the Enforcer, Hook Nose and the others figured out the restrictions and connections between the jobs in the previous game.
After thinking carefully, they all looked at Luo Xi.
Without a doubt, the game ended in this way with the smallest probability, but it happened.
It was because this 'Robber' was ahead of everyone in understanding the core of the game, and knew the identity of the key job, and then decisively knocked the Enforcer unconscious.
Of course, knocking the Enforcer unconscious was because the other party wanted to fulfill the job's requirements before the end of the game.
As for the killer admitting defeat later, starting the second stage of the game, it should be completely 'accidental'.
"I now announce the game content and rules for the second stage of plot deduction." Old Ma was always so rigid, very serious and solemn in his demeanor: "Because the previous Enforcer did not complete the task of capturing the 'killer', their identity is reduced to 'civilian'. The 'killer' chooses to admit defeat voluntarily without killing anyone, making up for their crimes, and also becomes a 'civilian'. The abilities and requirements of the above two jobs are all voided. In the second stage of the game, I will personally join the game and play the new 'Enforcer'. As players of the game, you need to explore, discover, and find the plot content in specific game scenes, and promote the plot to proceed. Only by carrying out the plot to the last step can you pass the game."
"Wait a minute!" Affability said at this time: "Are you saying that we have to explore and discover the script ourselves? That is, there is no script at the beginning. In that case, there are two possibilities. One is to find the script content, and the other is not to find it. If we don't find it, what will happen?"
"This is a good question." A smile seemed to appear on Old Ma's face: "The plot will still proceed, but you just don't know it. It's like a bus running. Whether the passengers know the stops and destinations along the way does not affect the bus's travel plan. In the end, it will still reach the terminal."
"Does that mean that even if we are kept in the dark the whole time, it won't hinder us from passing the game? Is that what you mean?" The strong man over there asked.
"That's right!" Old Ma nodded.
"That's simple. If we can find it, we'll find it. If we can't find it, we'll just lie down and do nothing," the day laborer said indifferently.
Old Ma chuckled twice and said nothing.
"Then, the second stage of the game officially begins!"
After saying that, Old Ma walked to a sofa over there, stood still, and then sat down with a thud.
He didn't move.
"Isn't he also joining the game, playing the new 'Enforcer'? What does it mean that he's sitting over there?" the mature woman asked.
"Now that the game has started, as a part of the game, how he acts is entirely up to him. However, I feel that it's not a good thing for the administrator to join the game," the high school girl said, adjusting her glasses.
"What should we do now?" the day laborer asked. This person clearly had an instability that didn't match his actual age. Logically, someone his age should be serious and not talkative, but he was acting very proactive at the moment.
Affability turned to look at Luo Xi, touching the wound on his head. Fortunately, the bleeding had stopped, leaving behind a lot of scabs.
Luo Xi didn't care about this obviously hostile gaze.
He had long reached the 'state of not caring about anyone's opinion'. Everything was only for the plan and the goals to be achieved. Because he didn't harbor any personal emotions, there was no such thing as dislike or like, hatred or any other emotional things.
As for the questions raised by others, such as why the administrator wanted to join the game, what exactly was going on with the second stage of the plot, and what they should do now.
Luo Xi didn't consider them at all.
In his opinion, the game had started, so it was time to act.
It was that simple.
Luo Xi walked over to Old Ma and sat on the sofa next to him.
"Old Ma, since you are the new Enforcer, then you have also inherited the abilities of the original Enforcer, right?"
"Yes." Old Ma didn't move, only glancing at Luo Xi with his eyes.
"Then, the reporting and apprehending mechanism still exists, right?"
"If there is no 'Killer', then the reporting and apprehending mechanism will be meaningless." Old Ma didn't answer directly, but went around in circles.
The latest novels are first published on Liu\\_9\\_Shu\\_Ba!
"I can understand that, and vice versa."
Before Luo Xi could finish speaking, a rapid telephone ring suddenly came from a room on the second floor.
This sound was like a bolt of lightning across the night sky, startling everyone. Luo Xi turned to look, and many people had already run over there, while a few others stood frozen in place.
Obviously, the sudden ringing represented the direction of the 'plot'.
Moreover, it must be a very obvious hint.
"I suggest you go take a look. Others may not be able to capture the details," Old Ma suddenly said in a low voice.
Luo Xi remained noncommittal.
Although he was almost certain that Old Ma in front of him was Jia Wu among the Six Ding Six Jia, he couldn't be sure whether the other party was a friend or an enemy, especially in the Day of Imprisonment, where the line between the two was very blurred.
So Luo Xi got up and walked over there.
He wasn't the first to arrive, nor was he the last. At this moment, several people had already arrived at the door of the room where the phone was ringing. It was the second room on the west corridor on the second floor.
The strong man and Affability in front were trying to open the door.
But obviously, this door was locked and couldn't be opened without a key.
The phone was still ringing, inside this room.
"Heh, the first problem has arrived. A call that may represent key plot information is blocked by a locked door. Only by opening the door before the phone stops ringing will there be a chance to obtain this key information," the mature woman said.
Basically, this was the current situation.
Solving a problem in a short period of time.
"The lock is a mechanical lock, and it's a common and easy-to-pry A-type. Give me a hairpin and a hair clip, and I can pry it open in a minute," said the day laborer. At least from the outside, this guy didn't look like a technician, but it was understandable.
Day laborers usually know a lot. Perhaps the other party has also worked as a locksmith. Moreover, this is not a difficult industry to enter. As long as there is an experienced master to give a few pointers, you can get started.
But before he could finish speaking, Luo Xi took two steps forward and kicked the door hard.
Bang ~
The impact force, which obviously exceeded the strength of ordinary people, directly destroyed the door lock, and the door was kicked open.
Then, under the stunned gaze of everyone, Luo Xi walked into the room and picked up the phone on the table.
"Almost forgot, his profession is a robber, and a robber breaking down a door... this setting is reasonable," the high school girl smiled, adjusted her glasses, and leaned over.
She was not a killer now, but a civilian.
She didn't seem as serious and preoccupied as before.
The room was not big.
Moreover, there was a bed and a wardrobe on the side that occupied most of the space. The phone was on the bedside table, it was an old-fashioned telephone. The room was decorated very warmly, and the bedding was very exquisite, even the smell of washing could be smelled on the sheets.
Luo Xi was answering the phone. There was obviously a voice on the phone, but because the old-fashioned telephone didn't have an external function, no one else could hear it.
Some people were dissatisfied.
Because this call must be related to the second stage of the plot in the scene.
But dissatisfaction was useless. Luo Xi kicked open the door, and he was the one with the strongest 'combat power' among these professions.
The few people who could squeeze into the room had already filled the room, and several others were standing outside the door, their eyes on Luo Xi and the telephone in his hand.
About a minute later, Luo Xi hung up the phone.
Affability next to him glanced at the phone and then at Luo Xi.
"What did it say inside?"
