The movement she made attracted the attention of Phoenix Wright, but he just glanced back, and then continued to tie the rope.

But when he turned around, Miyanagi Chinami was stunned, because she discovered that there was actually a cloth stuffed in the mouth of Naruhodou Ryuichi.

What was the situation? Didn't he tie up the two deceased men, himself and Kayaba Akihiko, because he was worried about them being snitched on?Why did he attack himself... Could he be crazy?

So are Phoenix Wright Ryuichi and Kishibe Rohan really crazy?The answer is of course not.

Next to the fire, the two men used a little force to completely tighten the rope around each other, ensuring that it was absolutely impossible for each other to escape from the restraints.Because the rope was tied so tightly, the two even fell to the ground when the rope was tightened, and because their legs were completely tied, it was even difficult to get up for a while.

So there were five caterpillar-like things lying in the hall of the resource house. Their limbs were tied tightly and their mouths were stuffed with strips of cloth.Not only was he unable to move, he was unable to even insult and ridicule.

As for killing each other or using an informer to report on the living, it was no longer possible. Now, no matter whether they thought about it or not, the only thing the five of them could do was to fall to the ground and slowly wait for death.

Even the method of death has no choice. Maybe they starve to death because there is no food, or they die of thirst because they can't drink water. Even if the fire is extinguished, they freeze to death. possible.

And this is what Ryūichi Naruhodou wants.

Although he fell to the ground with his whole body restrained, Phoenix Wright's eyes were more determined than ever before.

Nagito Komaeda wanted to sacrifice the lives of two people to obtain the survival of the last person. One person died and three people survived, which sounded like a good deal.For Ryūichi Naruhodou, such a thing is unacceptable. As a human being, he will never approve of the behavior of comparing the value of life based on quantity.

Save a hundred people and kill ten, save ten and kill one - such a decision would never be allowed by Phoenix Wright!

He didn't know what the hope Nagito Komaeda had been talking about all day long, but he would never think that this kind of behavior of treating human life like a number could be hope... Therefore, Naruhodou Ryuichi would use his own method to prove.

Prove his hope of becoming Phoenix's Ryuuichi!

Since normal methods can no longer achieve the ending of everyone's lives, the craziest methods are used to break the deadlock.

Nagito Komaeda wants to use his own initiative to wait for death to create a boring program without other influencing factors, so as to bring down the show team.

Ryuichi Naruhodou directly deprived others of their ability to move, creating a desperate situation where everyone had to lie on the ground and wait for death, thereby forcing the show crew to quit!

First attacking others with violence, and then forcibly depriving others of their rights to move and leaving them to die - Phoenix Wright didn't even bother to count how many criminal laws he had violated with this behavior.

Anyway, based on Wright's experience as a lawyer, even if it wasn't the death penalty, it would be enough for him to make sparks out of his sewing machine in prison.

But he didn't care.

As mentioned before, he has now completely let go of his previous reserve as a lawyer.If it were in the outside world, I am afraid that after his lawyer badge was revoked and his lawyer's qualifications were revoked, he would have to go through a long period of severe beatings in life before he could face everything so calmly.

But thanks to the extreme environment in this game, he had to completely adjust his mentality in just one month, from a lawyer who acted within the rules to a lawyer who would use all means for his own justice. A method person.

Wright didn't know whether this was considered a fall or a growth, but he knew that he could change many things now.

The upright star of the legal world, Naruhodou, could not avoid being framed by his opponents, but the current enthusiastic public, Naruhodou Ryuichi, could.

In the same way, the upright lawyer Naruhodou Ryuichi cannot break the current desperate situation and save everyone, but he, Naruhodou Ryuichi, can.

Blocking the lives of five people on whether the show team would end up breaking the deadlock was something no one in their right mind would do, but he just had the confidence.

After hearing all the previous programs from Kishibe Rohan, he was confident in the program team's actions.

Even at this moment, Phoenix Wright had some understanding of Nagito Komaeda - maybe sometimes the so-called hope means that you have to do crazy things that are unreasonable to ordinary people in order to defeat despair.

Cheng Butang Ryuichi could feel many eyes looking at him.

Miyanagi Chinami was glaring at him bitterly, I, Komaeda Nagito, was staring at him eagerly, Kishibe Rohan looked at him with a chuckle, and Kayaba Akihiko looked at him expressionlessly.

There were complex emotions in everyone's eyes, but Ryuuichi Nishikido no longer wanted to distinguish what these emotions represented, so he slowly closed his eyes.

Others may disapprove of his actions, but so what?

The so-called hope is a deep belief in oneself.

......

Time is most easily extended in boredom.

Coupled with hunger, fatigue, cold... In such pain, people's perception of time in the outside world will suddenly slow down, as if it is a kind of torture.

Phoenix Ryuichi couldn't even tell how much time had passed, and he had long since stopped paying attention to the rising and setting of the sun outside the window.

Just because his mind is empty - in this kind of despair, emptying his mind is the only way to reduce the pain.

He used to be hungry, but not anymore. He couldn't remember how long ago that feeling of hunger hit him, maybe 2 minutes ago?It could be two hours, two days, or even two years.

This kind of trivial matter is insignificant now, just like the other tied up people in the room, who are all lying on the ground quietly like corpses at this time.A while ago, they had rolled and twisted desperately, but now that they realized that everything was in vain, they gave up struggling and lay there quietly.

The fire in the middle of the hall had long been extinguished, and the cold air was eerily quiet, making people think of the morgue where the dead lay.

As a result, at this time, I still can’t tell whether the cause of my death will be death from freezing or starvation...

The last thought flashed through Wright's mind, and then in the silence, his consciousness gradually dissipated——

pat.

The sharp sound of high heels hitting the ground suddenly stung Phoenix's consciousness.

The next moment, applause sounded, and with that sound, Wright's already fuzzy thinking gradually came to his senses.

"It really... leaves me speechless."

The blond woman in a blue skirt clapped her hands, and for the first time the corners of her lips showed a smile that was not the usual smile: "Forcing the program team to come in, even from the first episode to now, you are the only ones who dare to do this. Something is coming."

"It's so unexpected. I don't know whether you are brave or crazy."

"But...well done, and I really mean it."

Chapter 402 You may win, but the program team will never lose

"But being tied to the ground like this and hungry, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk properly."

Margaret smiled slightly, and the next moment, the ropes on the people who were tied into caterpillars seemed to have come to life, untied themselves and scattered on the ground.

Not only that, they were obviously so hungry that they were unconscious and no longer had the strength to make a sound, let alone move.But now after the ropes were untied, they strangely felt that the weakness in their bodies had completely disappeared. Apart from the hunger emerging in their bellies, they were no different from ordinary people.

"As a reward for you, food will still be prepared, right?"

Margaret walked to the Resource Department and opened the door. Several tables filled with various delicacies appeared on the snow outside. The scent of someone wafted into the Resource House almost instantly, bringing The greed in everyone's stomachs was completely aroused.

At this moment, their minds basically lost any ability to think, and the food in front of them simply became a collection of all their desires.Just like a hungry mouse seeing cheese placed on a mousetrap, even if it knows there is a trap ahead, it will definitely reach out and bite it.

The five of them got up on their hands and knees and rushed out of the door of the resource house, thinking about food.No matter he is a famous cartoonist or a wise scholar, at this moment, driven by appetite, the most basic human desire, he has lost all grace and cares about nothing except wolfing down food in his mouth. Not on.

I'm afraid that even if there is a murderer chasing behind them, they would rather be a dead ghost than run away.

"The food reserve is sufficient. It doesn't matter if you don't need to eat in such a hurry, right?" Margaret followed them leisurely and walked out of the resource room, but at this time the others paid no attention to her and just looked at her. Take care of yourself.Margaret smiled helplessly when she saw this, pulled out a plastic chair from somewhere and sat down calmly.

"I see, even if the body no longer needs energy replenishment, will the psychological hunger still make the mind lose control?" Margaret glanced at the snowy field, with a hint of thinking in her eyes: " But the AI ​​program transformed from a human being doesn’t seem to feel hungry, it’s obviously a human consciousness... Does the change in thinking after turning into a robot, or is it simply a matter of strong willpower?”

No one else present noticed what Margaret was saying; all they had in mind was food.

Time passed quickly, and it was not until half an hour later that the last person put down the plate in his hand and burped with satisfaction, and the crazy eating finally came to an end.

Looking at the messy scene in front of her, Margaret raised her eyebrows slightly and said jokingly: "Although I know that you may not care about your grace, but with all due respect, the way you just looked was like you were humping in a trough. The food is the same, but I just have to put my front hooves in."

No one responded to her. After eating and drinking, they only looked at her with wary eyes.

"You don't have to look at me with such hatred, okay? After all, I saved you all from near death, so you can be a little gentler to me." Margaret smiled and shook her head: " But it’s not that we can’t understand you... Don’t worry, we won’t do anything else, because the farce you staged is already very effective.”

She stood up from the white plastic chair and took a serious look at Ryūichi Naruhodou in front of her: "You are really brave. In other games, most of the contestants with normal mental states We all wanted to distance ourselves from the show team, but instead of doing that, you boldly attacked the show itself and dragged us into the game."

"Brilliant, brave, crazy - especially you, Phoenix Wright."

"Your plan is to forcibly take the lives of four other people to bet that your deduction is correct. You know, according to Komaeda's plan, at least two people can survive, but with you, only all of them can survive. There are two options: and everyone dies. Are you so sure that we will end? You must know that showing up to save you violates our principle of not interfering with the actions of the contestants."

"If you don't even believe in yourself, then there is no chance of winning from the beginning." Ryū chuckled and calmly wiped away the remaining rice residue from the corner of his mouth: "As for violating the rules... ...Ha, maybe what I said is a bit blunt, but I’m afraid the only rule of your program team is that there are no rules.”

"I have always wondered about one thing. Why is there such a host in your program? If you throw us into a desperate situation and kill each other, you need to tell us the rules of killing each other. Are there any There are too many methods, such as writing directly on paper or wall, sending voice, video, etc. If you want to increase the tension between us, using this completely inanimate method will only increase the sense of fear. Why bother? What about having a live host?”

"After hearing about the previous games from Kishi, I finally determined the reason - this is because compared to those dead rules that cannot be changed, a host with his own judgment has more agency and can make the game more exciting. And act on your own.”

"In the first episode of the show, the Black Bear host once said that the most important thing as a host is not fairness or honesty, let alone ensuring the fairness of the game, but making the show exciting! So in the face of that kind of When the show becomes boring, you as the host will definitely take action, even if it breaks your rules."

"And in the end, the result proved that it was correct." Ryūichi Naruhodou grinned: "This time we won."

"Do you think you won?" Faced with Phoenix Wright's confident speech, Margaret covered her mouth and chuckled: "Maybe, but so do we?"

"Although you may not have noticed it, your own behavior of challenging the program team has already constituted excellent material for the program, right?"

"?!" Naruhodou Ryuichi had the same expression, and the little pride he had originally disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"You think that killing each other out of hunger is the effect of the program, and the Komaeda contestants pushing the living to sacrifice their lives for the dead are also the effect of the program, so in order to prevent us from succeeding, we forced everyone to resist the program together. But in this world What attracts people is not only the chaotic brutality and noble dedication, but also the courageous spirit of Don Quixote who dares to challenge the strong, which is also what countless people yearn for."

"I'm sorry to tell you, Phoenix Phoenix Player, that after you launched the challenge, the ratings of the show not only did not decrease, but actually increased~" Margaret said with a genuine smile.

"How is this possible?!" Wright's eyes widened in disbelief: "If that's the case, why are you helping us out?"

"The brave man has exhausted all his mechanisms, but in the end it is meaningless and useless. Isn't this ending boring? In contrast, the audience will prefer a plot in which the righteous brave man successfully defeats the devil. Therefore, For the sake of the show’s effect, what if I come out and give you a few words of praise?”

"Of course, the above will not be broadcast, otherwise it will affect the audience's mood."

"But this doesn't mean that we don't like your behavior. On the contrary, we will expect more outstanding contestants like you to do things that exceed the expectations of the program team. Often such super expansion can attract the audience more, right? .”

"What's wrong with the unpredictable stage of destiny? If you can pull off such a trick next time, we won't mind helping you - of course, you have to find some new tricks? Same thing. If the trick is used a second time, the viewing quality will be much worse."

"Then the above is what I want to say. The game will end at noon the day after tomorrow. As a reward for exceeding the expectations of the program team, food will be provided to you during this period. We will even hold a farewell party for you tomorrow night. Prepare delicious cakes."

"For the above, please excuse me."

Chapter 403 Miyanagi Chinami: Don’t sleep too much at night

Margaret left, but the atmosphere in the snow only became heavier.

The reason is already clear. At this time, Chinami Miyanagi's eyes were staring at Phoenix Wright and Kishibe Rohan with full resentment, but Kayaba Akihiko, who had taken everything calmly no matter what he faced, was looking at them now. Not even the slightest bit friendly.

Faced with the murderer who suddenly attacked him and then tied him up to die, any thinking person would probably not be able to have a good look towards them.

Kishibe Rohan and Komaeda Nagito are the beneficiaries of Naruhodou Ryuichi's plan, so it's not easy to say anything. After all, all three of them are alive now, but the two of them, Kanami Yanagi and Kayaba Akihiko, were originally A game that you can survive and even easily win in the first few days.But now he was forced to join a risky gambling game with a near-death experience, and he almost starved to death before he could survive until now.

What was originally a simple victory has now turned into a long torture for the lives of several people who have nothing to do with him. It would probably be unbearable for anyone.

Ryūichi Naruhodou was mentally prepared for the time being. After all, he himself knew how heartbreaking what he did this time was to the two deceased people. If Chinami Miyanagi or Akihiko Kayaba were prepared to beat him up now, After a meal, then he...

It will let these two people know how equal he is to both men and women, Naruhodou Ryuichi, and he will hit both men equally!

Why should he stand and let them beat him?He didn't do anything wrong, so what's wrong with him just wanting everyone to live?

Don't use the moral kidnapping rhetoric to condemn him. He, Phoenix Wright, is no longer a lawyer. As an ordinary citizen, he has no morals!

However, although Phoenix Wright was ready to fight with a smile on his face, what was unexpected was that Chinami Miyanagi, who had originally thought she would lose her mind and rush forward, did not act.

"You'd better not sleep too much at night." After saying this in an unusually calm tone, Miyanagi Chianami glared at him indifferently and returned directly to the resource room.

Oops, I’m really hated so thoroughly...

Ryūichi Naruhodou shook his head. His intuition told him that Chinami Miyanagi was not joking this time. The resentment in her tone had evolved into actual murderous intent.

If he really slept too deeply at night and there was no one around to help him, he might actually be stabbed to death by Chinami Miyanagi in his sleep...

"Oh, Mr. Naruhodou seems to have been completely targeted by Chinami, and he even did such things as directly saying harsh words. You must know that even if Mr. Naruhodou is killed, you will be killed later. Voted out.”

Nagito Komaeda showed a heartless smile and suggested in a sincere tone: "Have you considered striking first? Anyway, Mr. Wright, you have already thought about it, right? Faced with this kind of murderous reserve force, you must You have to hit hard."

Naruhodou Ryuichi didn't pick up Nagito Komaeda's quarrel. He just glanced at him sideways and smiled: "Why am I back to Mr. Naruhodou now? Didn't I just call me Naruhodou before?"

"Ahaha, doesn't this show respect for you?" Nagito Komaeda scratched his head, with an innocent face: "Maybe I had some misunderstandings before, but this time it successfully proved that you have the courage to overcome despair. Ability - you can also become hope! In that case, how can I disrespect you as a stepping stone to hope?"

"It's so annoying." Phoenix Ryūichi sighed: "I don't care what you think. But I hope you can calm down in the last two days and stop causing trouble. Personally, I still hope There are more people who can leave this game alive, do you understand?"

"Mr. Naruhodou, do you mean to kill me directly if I do something inappropriate again?!" Nagito Komaeda's face turned pale with shock.

"... Seriously, I'm afraid you'll be shot three times for your crime."

Naruhodou Ryuichi really doesn’t want to deal with Nagito Komaeda, a guy with a normal brain circuit. If the law finds him guilty, Nagito Komaeda will naturally be sentenced to death after he goes out; if the law finds Nagito Komaeda innocent of his actions , then I don’t want to overtake the cook.

After all, it is just a dream world, and no one is dead yet.When the game ends, I will resurrect those who died before, and then everyone’s actions in the game will be judged by the law.

But if he is resurrected... is it necessary for a crazed terrorist like Gin to be resurrected?

Thinking about it, Phoenix Wright walked into the resource room.

-

At night, Phoenix Wright didn't sleep well.

In order to prevent the tragedy of being unable to wake up after falling asleep, he simply squinted his eyes to rest almost the whole night, always alert to the movement around him.

Because the supply of food was sufficient, Miyanagi Chinami, who didn't have to worry about physical problems, re-lit a fire in a studio and stopped sleeping in the hall with them, but it also forced Naruhodou Ryuichi to fight higher. of defense.

Nagito Komaeda and Rohan Kishibe had no worries at all. After eating, they lay down next to the fire and slept soundly. It might even be the most comfortable night since entering the game.

There is no need to worry about food or being killed. After all, there are only five people left, and the two dead must have the password of the living to survive.In addition, Miyanagi Chinami had clearly shown during the day that the target she wanted to kill was Wright Phoenix, and they could be said to be extremely safe now.
