Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 18 Let’s make a deal

Zhao Mou didn’t have the slightest impression of the face that was revealed after taking off the mask, except that it looked good.

It is precisely because this appearance is absolutely unforgettable, so he is sure that he has never seen this man who calls himself Yu Xing before.

Zhao Mou was 120% wary of uninvited people.

 Obviously, this was the teammate his brother met during the assessment last night. He originally thought he was just a newcomer with potential, but unexpectedly, things seemed to be a bit beyond his expectations.

 Can find their home...no, it's his brother's home. It seems that the other party should rely on something.

"Please come in." Thinking of this, Zhao Mou showed a particularly official smile. He shook hands with Yu Xing and let Yu Xing into the room.

Yu Xing took a look at the exquisitely furnished and expensively decorated living room, and sat down on the sofa obediently.

 “Small wine, go get a glass of water for the guest.” Zhao Mou sat down opposite Yu Xing, elegantly assuming the posture of a host.

His eyes revealed a faint scrutiny, which invisibly put pressure on Yu Xing.

 He wanted to see what the purpose and abilities of those who had the courage to come were.

 However, the situation did not go in a direction that he could control.

Zhao Yijiu sat down next to Zhao Mou, crossed his legs and gave him a cold look: "If you want to pour the water, pour it yourself. I'm not one of your subordinates."

Yu Xing also smiled, his mood not affected at all: "Hey~ It seems that Mr. Zhao Mou is not very capable of directing Brother Jiu."

 Zhao Mou: "..." Although this atmosphere made me understand that Xiaojiu has a good sense of Yu Xing, at least neither party has any ill intentions, but why is she so uncomfortable for no reason!

It is true that he has had less contact with Zhao Yijiu over the years, and he no longer knows the younger brother he used to be.

But he didn’t expect that Zhao Yijiu would not give him face in front of outsiders...

It seems that showing off his power is not enough. Zhao Mou changed his mind and naturally changed his approach: "Yu Xing? Nice to meet you."

“Me too, I have admired his name for a long time.” Yu Xing smiled.

"You are here today to have a drink, right? How about you guys chat first?" Zhao Mou retreated before advancing, and the arc of light reflected on his lenses flashed by.

"You're not going to check my house specifically for what I promised you, are you?" Zhao Yijiu looked at Yu Xing with a look in his eyes that seemed to be hesitant to say something.

Wouldn't it have been better if I had known that I would have left my contact information last night? If you come here directly, it will easily be taken as a provocation by Zhao Mou.

"That's not true. How can I be so powerful that I found out about the famous Zhao family among the deducers in one night?" Yu Xing shook his head. Unexpectedly, he directly rejected Zhao Yijiu's guess, "Actually..."

“I am here for Mr. Zhao Mou, or in other words, for the strength of the entire Zhao family.”

“…” Zhao Yijiu stared at him coldly.

"Oh? Then I'm a little curious. How much do you know about us?" Seeing Yu Xing being so straightforward, Zhao Mou couldn't help but squint his eyes, smile like a fox, and raise his tone.

"The Zhao family is a big family among the deduction forces and is very famous in North China. The most famous thing is the Zhao family's understanding of many intelligence materials in the deduction world. To use a metaphor, the Zhao family is like an encyclopedia, or intelligence Boss, the deducers in North China should know you more or less." Yu Xing's tone was somewhere between serious and casual, making it unclear what attitude he had in commenting on this family, "I didn't at first. I thought Brother Jiu belonged to this Zhao family, but when I checked Brother Jiu’s contact information today, I found something wrong. "

"Brother Jiu's performance is obviously not that of a newcomer. There must be teachers or other support behind him. And I happened to find out that the 'alienation route deducer Zhao Mou', who has become famous recently, is actually Brother Jiu's brother. Brother Jiu was injured last night. Normal medical methods are difficult to treat wounds caused by ghosts, so I guess Mr. Zhao Mou, who has the healing sacrifice, should be the one to heal Brother Jiu."

“Since there is such a good opportunity to meet Mr. Zhao Mou, of course I can’t miss it, so please forgive me for disturbing you today.”

Such a long paragraph, but also full of information.

When Zhao Mou heard this, his posture gradually relaxed, because what Yu Xing said was not a secret, but information that domestic gamers who were promoted from senior to "differentiation level" could easily know.

After all, the Zhao family is very special. Other deducer forces are basically gathered from different places. There are only a few families that can ensure that someone can enter [Absurdity] and continue the inheritance of deducers from generation to generation.

 This family reputation has been around for a long time.

"It turns out you are from another force." Zhao Mou pushed up his glasses, "You came specifically to block me. You must be seeking the intelligence capabilities of the Zhao family. Therefore, I hope you can be honest and honest about which force you represent now. ?”

For a newcomer like this who has just entered the deduction game, his intelligence has not yet been included in the scope of what the Zhao family needs to collect, so even if he comes into contact with the intelligence management work, he knows nothing about Yu Xing.

 Which force? Yu Xing sighed secretly.

 He is not a member of any force, he is truly a loner.

But...he knows quite a few people, and it's time to bring in someone who is least easy to verify as a shield.

 He is the kindest, most honest, and the least able to deceive others. If there is no need, he will definitely not deceive the Zhao family...probably?

Yu Xing glanced at Zhao Yijiu, who was sitting next to him and said nothing, and said, "Mr. Zhao Mou must have heard of Qu Nianqing, right?"

"Qu Xianqing?" Zhao Mou's pupils shrank, and then he was a little surprised, and smiled, "Of course, she is much more famous than me, a brutal loner, a female devil in the alienation line... What, you don't want to say that , are you hers?"

"That's not impossible. I'm her friend." Yu Xing decisively blocked the shield in front of her.

Zhao Mou had a lot of free time: "Can this be proved?"

 He had never heard of the solitary woman having friends around her.

"Okay~" Yu Xing took out her mobile phone, "Shall I ask her to add you on WeChat?"

  Zhao Mou: Ah, this... this is what my sister has thought of.

With WeChat already taken out, Zhao Mou naturally had many ways to verify the authenticity. He waved his hand: "No, if you add WeChat so suddenly, I'm afraid she won't like me and will kill me next time."

 Having made a little joke, the atmosphere in the living room has relaxed a lot. Except for the refrigeration and air-conditioning Zhao Yijiu, whose face gradually turned bad, everything seemed so harmonious.

Zhao Yijiu, who has little contact with his own family: I am the only one here who doesn’t know anything.

“So, what’s the purpose of your visit to our house?” Sensing his brother’s mood, Zhao Mou coughed dryly and asked.

Yu Xing raised his eyes: "I won't trouble the entire Zhao family for the time being. In my own name, I would like to ask you to help me pay attention to something."

Zhao Mou became interested: "Oh? What is it?"

“A degenerate who calls himself an actor and never reveals his real name and appearance, and the force behind him, ‘Single Prism’.”

"this is yours?"

"Enemies." Yu Xing said, his expression didn't look like he was talking about enemies at all. The smile became brighter, but it made people feel chilled in the heart for no reason. "He and I have such a grudge that we must die~"

 Zhao Mou: That’s really a big hatred.

He knows the actor, who rarely appears. He is the highest-level deducer in the legend. Now he has no way to obtain the other party's information.

The reason why I have heard of him is because it is rumored that Qu Nianqing is at odds with the "Single Prism" organization and has great conflicts, and the actor is one of the members of the Single Prism, and may be the initiator of the Single Prism.

"This business is neither big nor small." Zhao Mou smiled at Yu Xing. After all, Yu Xing only asked him to pay attention, and there was no compulsory demand. Moreover, the entrustment was made by him personally and would not involve the entire Family, "I can help you keep an eye on it, but what are you going to pay for it?"

"The Zhao family is headquartered in Tianjin. Over the years, it has gradually penetrated into the surrounding areas. I never expected that your family's influence has begun to spread to the Jiangnan area." Yu Xing was very confident, "Your scope of activities is still mostly in Tianjin. , Brother Jiu probably lives alone in Mijin City, right? You can’t help him all the time. If you agree, I can guarantee his safety before he is promoted to a senior level~"

Zhao Yijiu frowned when he was suddenly called.

 He became a bargaining chip?

Although his brother Zhao Mou has an out-of-touch personality, he is indeed very strong, but Yu Xing...he has just completed the assessment with him, so how can he have the confidence to "protect" him?

 Hehe, I thought that if I were smarter and more skilled, I would be able to...

Yu Xing turned to look at him with a smile: "Of course, Brother Jiu must agree to this kind of thing. Hehe, just do me a favor. Brother Jiu, I really need your brother's intelligence power!"

 Can you... turn out to still respect his ideas?

 Zhao Yijiu's hair was smoothed, and his gloomy expression relaxed slightly.

 He said coldly: "You, the primary and intermediate stages, protect me?"

"You can protect me!" Yu Xing followed the good example and showed an expression that reminded Zhao Yijiao of his experience last night. "However, I will do what I say. If Mr. Zhao Mou agrees, I guarantee that you will die." If you don’t lose, you can be promoted stably without any worries.”

"Is this what Qu Nianqing meant?" Zhao Mou looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was a little moved.

Zhao Yijiu is young and has a closed personality. Even though he has received training in skills and logic since childhood, he still has little deduction experience.

He would feel more at ease if someone could protect him.

“Well, Qu Xianqing can also help if necessary. Hey, why don’t you add WeChat.” Yu Xing said, opening the phone interface and approaching Zhao Mou.

 Zhao Mou: "..." Still nothing.

"I will give you an answer after verifying this matter. If you are really on the same side as Qu Xianqing, I can help you on my own behalf." He nudged Zhao Yijius with his elbow, "Little Wine, what do you think?”

 “Whatever.” Zhao Yijiu dodged Zhao Mou’s elbow.

 He is not an arrogant person who does not know how to weigh the pros and cons, so he has no reason to refuse.

If what Yu Xing said is true, then in addition to his own profit from this "transaction", Yu Xing can get the information he wants, and Zhao Mou... can also take the opportunity to hook up with Qu Nianqing.

Oh, even though he didn’t know who Qu Nianqing was in these two mouths...

"Then it's settled. Mr. Zhao Mou can give me a reply at any time after confirmation." Yu Xing stood up, "Then I won't disturb you and leave."

Zhao Mou felt that this person came as soon as he came and left as soon as he achieved his goal. He was very ruthless.

 “WeChat.” Seeing Yu Xing turning around to leave, Zhao Yijiu suddenly spoke.

 “Huh?” Yu Xing blinked at him blankly.

“Give me WeChat. Do you want to raid my house next time?” Zhao Yijiu stretched out his hand coldly and handed his QR code to Yu Xing.

 …

 After leaving Bishui Garden, Yu Xing looked at the setting sun and bought a six-yuan Maotai-flavored pancake on the street.

He found the contact directly noted as "Qu Xianqing" on WeChat, biting into the pancake and typing:

"Innocent girl! I just used your name to do something. If you find that someone is checking you recently, don't be too cruel."

After a long time, Yu Xing reached the door of his house, and Qu Xianqing slowly typed a question mark.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　?)

This female devil who is described by Zhao Mou as being cold and lonely sent a confused cat emoticon, and then asked in voice: "When did you become a deducer?"

 “Last night.” Yu Xing typed.

 “Is your revenge about to begin?” The voice over there was clear, and he obviously knew more than Zhu Yan.

Yu Xing smiled and answered each word one by one: "It's already started."
