Infinite spooky game

Chapter 371 Not Guilty

As the review proceeded, Fu Jue answered all the questions raised by the investigators in an orderly manner. Even if the answers he gave were not completely satisfactory, there was nothing wrong with them from the perspective of procedure or logic.

An hour passed quickly, and the middle-aged man from Ying County said loudly: "From the information we know so far, Fu Jue is innocent, and his actions in leading the Weird Investigation Bureau in the final instance are reasonable. If you have no objection, then we can disperse."

None of the investigators responded. Not all losers have the magnanimity to praise the winners. This is not the result they want to see or are willing to accept.

Fu Jue stood up from his seat and walked straight to the door. The investigators from the Beidu General Administration who were waiting in the corner of the room also left their seats and surrounded Fu Jue.

Everything was done in silence. The group of people walked out of the investigation room expressionlessly, without saying a word or even looking at anyone else.

The tall woman who asked the question first took a few steps forward and suddenly said, "Fu Jue, the two cards [Fallen Savior] and [Eternal Witch Priest] both have a lot of small cards. How many seats do you plan to give us among the candidates who enter the final copy?"

Fu Jue did not answer immediately, but glanced at a young woman with a buzz cut beside him: "Li Yunyang, do you have any remaining cards in your hand?"

The woman was dressed in camouflage military uniform, with sharp eyes and a heroic demeanor. She was none other than Li Yunyang, who had topped the previous rookie list and held the [Eternal Witch Priest] identity card.

In the early days, she had been playing the weird game as a free player until she was specially invited to attend the guild conference two weeks ago, and then she joined the Tingfeng Guild. Yesterday, she followed Fu Jue back to the Jiuzhou Guild and officially became an investigator of the Weird Investigation Bureau.

In her words, she herself had no opinion on the major guilds, nor did she know what the role of the guilds was. She was only willing to be in the same guild with Fu Jue because she agreed with his philosophy.

The tall woman looked at Li Yunyang and said with a smile: "I heard that the identity card of [Eternal Witch Sacrifice] has a total of eight small cards. There are some powerful players in each county. The candidates for the final copy must be selected from the best. What do you think?"

Li Yunyang looked at her in silence for a while, then smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't listen carefully on the day of the Guild Conference. It wasn't until I went to Sunset Ruins and saw the Revelation Monument that I realized that the identity card had so many uses.

"That day, I was in a dungeon and suddenly saw some small cards under my identity card. The dungeon was a bit difficult, so I didn't think much about it and gave all the small cards to my teammates in a desperate attempt."

The tall woman frowned: "Not a single one left?"

Li Yunyang laughed dryly and spread his hands: "Yeah, there's not a single one left."

This is complete nonsense. Any normal person would not slack off when attending a guild meeting for the first time. How could he still be ignorant of the role of the identity card after Yu Jinsheng emphasized it?

Even if you really slept through it, didn't you check the forum after the conference? There are so many posts analyzing ID cards in the forum, how could you not have read any of them?
If a player is intelligent, upon seeing the identity card change in the dungeon, his first reaction would be to understand the situation first. How could he send out the small card without saying anything?
And it's fine if you just send them out, but according to the principle of "don't put all your eggs in one basket", shouldn't you keep a few for control experiments? Isn't it too much to keep none?

This is obviously because they are afraid that others will play tricks, so they take the initiative. There is a high probability that there is the instruction of the Longjun faction behind this.

Anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on, but they just couldn't say anything. After all, Li Yunyang was a newcomer who had just joined the Weird Investigation Bureau yesterday, and no one had any reason to interfere with what she had done before joining the Bureau.

The tall woman still didn't give up: "Li, you should know that the final copy is full of dangers. Even the top 100 players can't guarantee that they can escape unscathed.

"Are you sure you want to get your friend into trouble? After the small card is bound, it shouldn't be untransferable, right?"

Li Yunyang sighed and made a heartbroken expression: "Yes, I regretted it after I knew all these twists and turns. It was all my fault that I got confused at the time and involved them.

"But I asked Weird Game, and it turns out that bound cards cannot be transferred. Even if the owner dies, they will only be reclaimed by Weird Game."

As they were talking, other investigators came to the corridor one after another and listened to the entire conversation between the two. The old man from Maple Leaf County looked at Fu Jue with a smile: "Mr. Fu, the girl is relatively young, you are not going to give away all the small cards, are you?"

Fu Jue shook his head: "[Fallen Savior] also has eight small cards, and the candidates for binding have not yet been determined. I agree with Ms. Sandy's opinion. The final dungeon is full of dangers, and participants must choose the best. I hope to select the most suitable players for the weird game from each county to enter the final dungeon and make the best decision for the group."

The old man blinked twice, obviously not expecting Fu Jue to agree so readily.

The representative of Crystal County said, "Then let's determine the candidate based on the ranking of the list before it was destroyed. Fran Parker from our county is ranked 21st on the overall list and 8th in the Investigation Bureau..."

"No." Fu Jue shook his head again, "Before today, you have said more than once that the ranking of the comprehensive strength list does not conform to the actual situation, and I also agree with your point of view.

"Using value judgment to replace factual judgment, using results to negate the value of process, valuing force over intelligence, and using prop reserves as latitude and longitude without considering one's own strength, this set of evaluation criteria is not scientific."

The old man had a bad feeling and narrowed his eyes: "How does Mr. Fu plan to select the candidate?"

Fu Jue raised his left hand to check his watch, then glanced at everyone: "There are still thirty-two hours and thirty-seven minutes until the final instance opens. Players who are interested in entering the final instance will be matched with new instances from now on. The eight people who have cleared the most instances within the time limit will be selected."

The investigators looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

All those present were experts in the weird game, ranking at the top of the destroyed overall leaderboard. For them, clearing the dungeon was like solving a middle school math problem; although it was not easy, it was not considered to be deliberately difficult.

Fu Jue's proposal seemed to be entirely out of public interest, wanting to assemble a team that was good at clearing dungeons, and there was no sign of any hidden trap.

Then they saw Fu Jue take out a handful of white rings from his pocket and casually scatter them on the ground, his voice calm: "During this period, I will also participate in the matchmaking, and the possibility of accidental death cannot be ruled out. In order to prevent the Bureau of Tricks from losing the [Fallen Savior] card on the eve of the final instance, players who are interested in binding this card can match with me and enter the same instance."

Discussions arose. Li Yunyang also took out a red ring and threw it on the ground like Fu Jue did: "I will listen to Senior Fu Jue. I will also go to the dungeon later. Comrades are welcome to help support me."

The Crystal County representative asked coldly, "What do you mean? Do you think we are going to take your ID cards?"

Without waiting for Fu Jue and Li Yunyang to speak, Shao Qingmin stood between the two groups and snorted, "I've been watching from the side until now. I was just giving you face before, but now I can't stand it anymore.

"Who knows what you are up to? The final copy hasn't even been decided yet, and you're already rushing out to accuse me and engage in political infighting!"

Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out, Fu Jue raised his hand and made a downward gesture, signaling his people to be quiet, then turned around and left without changing his expression.

A dozen people from the Long County Local Investigation Bureau followed him and disappeared into the corner of the corridor, leaving the investigators from other counties looking at each other in bewilderment.

After a long time, the investigators with different expressions bent down and picked up the ring that fell on the ground. Some of them quietly put it on their little fingers.

Fu Jue took the elevator to the first floor and walked into the makeshift office. Li Yunyang quickly followed him and asked softly, "Senior, what should I do next? Do I need to prepare anything in advance?"

"That's not necessary." Fu Jue looked back at her, not knowing what he was thinking of, his tone became a little gentler, "Just stay the same in the face of change, and then try your best to survive, that's all." (End of this chapter)
