The Fool of the Gods

Cheng Shi naturally didn't know that Du Xiguang had asked Fang Jue to go out and party in the middle of the night.

He was on the first floor of the hotel at this time, asking questions to the drunkards who often drank with the "bard".

They seemed to be indifferent to the death of their drinking buddy, and only cared whether there was a discount on today's drinks.

It was still the same old routine. Cheng Shi stole the wine from other tables and came to this table to exchange stories.

Seeing that there was free wine, several drunkards exaggerated the story of their friendship with the "bard".

"Athos is an experienced traveler. Although he doesn't drink much, he has a wide range of knowledge. It is said that he has been to many places underground."

"You said he is a puppet? Don't be ridiculous, man. He must have been replaced. How can a puppet drink? Won't it get rusty? Besides, he paid for the wine."

"Why do I care where the real him is? I just want to know where his money is. Damn it, his room was emptied by the law enforcement department. It is said that he made a lot of money by writing books. If I could inherit this money, I would probably drink until the day I die. . "

"Bullshit, I am the son of Athos, only I have the right of inheritance."

"What? A believer of [Filth]? He is not a believer of [Filth], he is a beggar of faith, he believes in every god.

How do I know? He can say seven or eight prayers of gods in one breath, can you?"

"Hey man, is there any free wine? If not, go ask the boss for some. Athos often does this, and the boss will always give one or two bottles."

Cheng Shi withdrew from the table with a stiff smile, and his expression sank as soon as he returned to the room.

It was a very advanced puppet technique, and none of these drinkers noticed his abnormality.

And there are only a handful of professions that can achieve this level of puppet control. If it is related to [Filth] and [Death], there is only one profession:

Desire master.

A wizard who believes in [Filth].

A profession that can concoct puppets with desire.

The question is where is this murderer who is suspected to be the master of desire hiding now?

No puppet can leave the master too far away, so it can be seen that the murderer is still in the hotel.

But... can he hide so well?

He was not suspected by anyone, did not reveal any clues, and even used puppets to play tricks on the people of the Grand Court of Inquisition. He did not look like he was at a disadvantage at all.

Cheng Shi even wondered if exposing [When Fear Comes] was also part of his plan.

Because such a hidden murderer only needs to carry the murder weapon with him, and it is impossible for anyone to find him.

So, why did he put the semi-artifact in the room? Was it to send it to the hands of the Grand Court of Inquisition?

What was his intention in doing this?

Wait! !

Could it be! ?

His target was the Inquisitor?

Mo Qiusi! ! ? ?

Cheng Shi was shocked by his own thoughts, but when he thought about it carefully, it was completely consistent with all the details.

Use a puppet to create chaos, downplay your own existence, and then throw out the murder weapon to make the Grand Inquisition feel that the victory is in hand.

Next, it is natural to use the [When Fear Comes] in Mo Qius's hand to complete some unexpected operations.

Cheng Shi took a few deep breaths, and a bold guess arose in his heart.

Could it be that the sacrifice of this trial... is Mo Qius?

How is it possible!

A first-level judge of the Grand Inquisition?

Look at the reaction of the people to know how deep this brother's popular base is, and look at the death of Yunni and the ascetic to know how strong this brother is.

How can such an existence be solved by players?

Uh... Don't say, 6 2400 players are really not certain.

The problem is that 3 have died now, and there is a scumbag among the remaining 3.

Of course, I won't say who the scumbag is.

But there is another possibility, that is, the sacrifice is the murderer.

But at present, it seems that this "sacrifice" seems to be more difficult than the Grand Inquisitor.

Until now, players have not found where he is.

The clues are intermittent, and the inference can only be based on guesswork.

Cheng Shi stayed in the room all night, thinking and paying attention to the movements next door.

Finally, at 2:30 in the evening, a subtle noise came from the door.

Cheng Shi looked up in astonishment.

"?"

Why is the noise coming from his own door?

He immediately got out of bed quietly and slowly approached the door. After confirming that there was indeed someone outside the door, Cheng Shi did not take a conservative and cautious defensive posture, but suddenly opened the door unexpectedly.

At the moment the door was quickly opened, a waiter with an embarrassed look on his face lost his support and fell sideways into the room, falling mercilessly.Lie down.

Waiter?

Cheng Shi quickly stepped on the waiter's shoulder and asked playfully:

"Why, you come out to work part-time so late after get off work?"

The waiter obviously didn't understand Cheng Shi's teasing. He smiled awkwardly, but didn't struggle at all:

"Sorry to bother you. The boss said you were injured, so he asked me to bring some medicine. It's in my shirt pocket."

Cheng Shi didn't move, and said with force:

"Oh? Then I have to thank your boss, but is this how you deliver medicine?"

The waiter laughed awkwardly and said with a red face:

"Sorry, this is all my fault. I am too curious. I will report to the boss truthfully. Please forgive me."

The waiter didn't lie, and his attitude was sincere, and it didn't seem like he was cheating.

Cheng Shi hesitated for a moment, but still reached his hand into his shirt pocket.

However, when he touched the waiter's chest, he was stunned, then quickly withdrew his hand, smiled and said thank you.

The waiter got up from the floor in a panic, bowed repeatedly and left, and closed the door of the room.

Cheng Shi looked at the note in his hand and fell into deep thought.

...

On the other side, Du Xi stood by the wall with bated breath, listening to the movement in Cheng Shi's room next door. When the sound disappeared, he shook his head at Fang Jue who was sitting in the room.

"It was the owner of the hotel who sent someone to deliver the medicine, but this waiter may have some tricks, and Cheng Shi discovered it.

He is very alert and shrewd, not like a believer of [chaos]."

Fang Jue nodded first, then shook his head and said:

"The smell of [chaos] can't deceive people. This rational eroder has a high divinity. As he said, being close to [order] is more chaos in the eyes of [chaos]. "

"Hehe, according to this, aren't you more chaotic than him?"

"The premise is that he believes in [chaos], and I believe in [order]. The same external manifestations are wrapped in different cores, so each individual called human is different.

Okay, no more gossip, there are still 15 minutes, I am looking forward to tonight's journey."

"I am looking forward to it too. After we leave, remember to remove the silent barrier so that the neighbors will not be suspicious."

Fang Jue nodded and said nothing more.

...

3 o'clock came quickly.

Cheng Shi sensed that the person next door was gone, and decisively opened the door and walked out.

He had some guesses about where the two people were going, but now he didn't follow his own thoughts.

He looked at the note in his hand again and again, and walked to the first floor with a gloomy face.

The note said that there was a closed space under the bar in the lobby on the first floor, which was very suitable for meeting, and asked him to come alone.

Alone?

Okay, just alone.

Today, I will also be a lone wolf.

I want to see what the murderer who caused panic in Yongzhan Town looks like!
