Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 23 Sister ~ Can you check it out?

Xiao Xuechen didn’t expect that San would make such a joke.

 To be honest, the facts tell us that whether people who don’t know each other will be disliked by girls if they make such a joke all depends on their appearance.

The villain in her heart blushed, but on the surface she counterattacked very calmly: "It's better to avoid it. You are more likely to be scared. When the time comes, my sister will lend you my shoulder if you cry in fear."

elder sister?

Yu Xing suddenly felt very interesting.

Calling yourself sister in front of him, oh hoo~

“Sister, do you want to go shopping with me?” He showed a smile, but no matter how Xiao Xuechen looked at it, she felt that there was something strange in the smile.

 The word "sister" is very strong, maybe it's mocking her! It must be!

 “Let’s go.” Yu Xing tilted his head.

Xiao Xuechen looked at him, subconsciously said hello, and then followed Yu Xing and passed by the villagers not far away.

“Are you the new guests?” When the villagers saw the two, they greeted them warmly and spoke with thick accents.

“Yes, sorry to bother you.” Yu Xing greeted them naturally, and then left with Xiao Xuechen.

What a pity... He temporarily gave up his previous idea. If Xiao Xuechen didn't come to him, he originally planned to blow out the candle of one of the villagers for fun...

 Or take the candle and the plate away.

Obviously it is not far from the town, but only a hilltop away. However, Guanjia Village has no electricity or even kerosene lamps. It only lights candles. Obviously, there must be something wrong with these candles.

 But this can be done by one person, but it cannot be so exciting with a girl. If some terrorist incident is triggered, it will be a trap.

So, Yu Xing thought it would be better to take this time to explore the Guanjia Village, maybe he could make unexpected discoveries.

There are a lot of villagers on the road. In such a small village, all the villagers seem to be out at night, and you can see white candles swinging in the air from a distance.

Their eyes have adapted to the darkness, and with the silver moon hanging in the sky, they can see the road clearly.

Xiao Xuechen followed Yu Xing for a while and found that there were fewer and fewer villagers wandering around, and even the houses were sparse. She realized and asked suspiciously, "Where are we going?"

 Yu Xing: "East of the village."

 “Why is it the east of the village?”

After looking around to make sure there were no villagers close enough to hear them, Yu Xing tilted his head, seemingly helpless: "Sister, didn't you listen carefully to the conversations of those villagers?"

Xiao Xuechen's ears trembled as he was yelled by Yu Xing's magnetic voice with a longer pitch. The tips of Xiao Xuechen's ears felt a little hot for no reason.

 Then she became confused again. Can she find information in the conversations among the villagers?

 She sounds like it’s all very commonplace.

Seeing that Miss Yu was unaware, Yu Xing raised the corners of his mouth because it was dark and could not see his face clearly, and explained: "I found the direction before the sun set. The entrance of the village is located in the north and west of the village. After entering, the village chief's My home is in the west, and even the accommodation we found for Wei Gong and the others are private houses in the west of the village. Why are they all in the west? "

“Sister, you see, the houses are also concentrated in the west. The further east we go, the fewer villagers there are.”

 He put away his smile and showed an innocent look to Xiao Xuechen: "Aren't you curious about what's in the east of the village?"

yes!

Hearing what Yu Xing said, Xiao Xuechen suddenly understood, as if he suddenly got an investigation direction.

 The next thing that came was surprise at Yu Xing. She and Yu Xing were walking side by side and couldn't help but look at Yu Xing's profile.

 The side face is so handsome... Bah! This is not the point. The point is that this painter San has really strong observation skills.

It sounds like the mystery of the east of the village has not been deliberately hidden by the villagers, but if San hadn't piled up so many small details, this point would not have been obvious.

 At least, no one would find out so quickly, because everyone’s attention is on the problems manifested by the villagers themselves.

Hand out his hand to tuck a strand of slightly curly hair on his forehead behind his ear, Xiao Xuechen vaguely felt that San might be a big shot.

 She wants to hug someone... ah, no, make a friend.

Guanjia Village is located at the foot of the mountain. The ground in the village is relatively flat. However, as you go to the corners, the land becomes bumpier and the weeds become more luxuriant.

A few minutes later, the surroundings were completely clear. There were no houses or flickering white candles, and the eyes were full of depression and desolation.

"The east side of the village is so deserted? Isn't it because the land is uneven that there are no people there?" Xiao Xuechen looked around and felt that if they continued walking, they would go directly into the mountains.

 “No.” Yu Xing chuckled, “Come here.”

The two of them were not far apart. Xiao Xuechen didn't understand the meaning of "come here" for a while. The next moment, she was pulled by Yu Xing's skill. She didn't feel any pain and was pulled to Yu Xing's body, and then shook. God has already crouched down.

 Why did I squat down? Xiao Xuechen became confused. She realized that San, a weak-looking painter, seemed to have some fighting skills?

"Look at the ground." Yu Xing's voice sounded from above her. She shook her head and looked obediently.

"Oh...ah, yes, the grass here is sparser than the surroundings?" At any rate, she considered herself to be an intermediate deducer above the horizontal line. Even if the light source was dim, she could still see it after someone prompted her.

"That's right," Yu Xing raised his eyes and looked at this inconspicuous path, "Some people often walk this way, and the road has been stepped on."

 There is more than one path, so it is mixed in the weeds and difficult to detect.

 But there must be something ahead.

"Hmm." Xiao Xuechen looked up at him for two seconds, and suddenly realized that his posture was stupid. He quickly stood up and coughed twice.

When coming out of the village chief's house, as it was just an excuse to get some fresh air, Yu Xing didn't bring the bag that the character carried on his back, and only stuffed his cell phone in his pants pocket. At this time, he took out his mobile phone and took a look at the time.

It was about six o'clock when I entered the village. I went to the village chief's house, chatted, ate, and discussed accommodation at the village chief's house. Then I hung out for a long time, and the time came to 8:04.

Then, he turned on the lighting function of his mobile phone, and the light, which was not too strong, illuminated a small distance in front of him. He couldn't help but miss the flashlight. The beam of the flashlight was very penetrating and could illuminate a long distance.

I don’t know if he has it in his bag. The implanted memory does not seem to involve such details.

“Guess, what’s in front of you?” Xiao Xuechen also took out his mobile phone for lighting. The two light sources together made the visual range wider.

"Oh, how could I guess this?" Yu Xing followed the traces on the ground and asked, "Sister, do you think of me as a prophet?"

“Ahem, no, there’s no loss in guessing.” Xiao Xuechen muttered, then quickly passed Yu Xing.

Unfortunately, due to the advantage of long legs, Yu Xing only accelerated slightly to catch up with her, and even let out a chuckle of unknown meaning.

 Xiao Xuechen: “…”

ten minutes later.

Neither of them expected that this road would be so far that it would actually go into the mountains.

 The hills to the east near the west of the village are gentler, more like a higher slope.

Multiple unknown large trees are scattered at random, dry and hideous.

The woods at night are very scary. Not only can a lone walker feel isolated and depressed, but the shadows of the trees can also cause people to hallucinate, such as seeing the tree trunks as human beings, or always feeling that someone is following them, or as if they are following them. I heard someone calling my name...

However, Yu Xing and Xiao Xuechen were in good condition at this time. The former didn't feel anything at all, and the latter was led by a teammate who seemed to be a big boss, so he didn't get distracted easily.

Finally, when Yu Xing, a black hole of physical strength, began to be unable to walk, they finally saw a building through the layers of tree trunks blocking their sight.

The building was chosen in a relatively flat area. They turned off the lights on their mobile phones as soon as they discovered the building, lest they be disturbed by something inside.

Yu Xing stood behind a tree and looked around. The building was small and seemed to be a very simple ancestral hall.

Xiao Xuechen stood behind Yu Xing, pinched the two naps on the back of his clothes, looked over, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Yu Xing thought for a while.

 “Come in, come and come.”

 Xiao Xuechen: “…” This reason is really irrefutable.

She has always felt that investigator deduction games are indeed very similar to team running, but there is no dice goddess or related monsters from the Cthulhu mythology. The bigger difference is that in deduction games, you must take the initiative to contact possible dangers. .

 So, even without this sentence, she would definitely choose to go in and find out.

 They often need to actively look for life-saving clues.

The two of them set out to approach the ancestral hall. As they got closer, the appearance of the ancestral hall gradually became clearer.

Vermilion wooden walls, dark brown mortise and tenon structure roof, about 20 square meters. From the front, it seems that there are several rows of wooden signs inside.

 And…a black coffin.

 Other than that, nothing special has appeared for the time being.

Yu Xing turned on the light again and stepped in.

This ancestral hall feels empty. There are tablets and coffins in the front, several tufts on both sides, and symmetrical candle holders behind the tufts.

 At this time, all the candles were extinguished, and the entire ancestral hall was lifeless and eerily quiet.

“Is this... the place where the funeral will be held tomorrow?” Xiao Xuechen also came in. She walked to the coffin and reached out to touch it.

"The coffins are all here... Do you remember the wooden sign we saw at the entrance of the village, which said Coffin Village?" She said so, and a more straightforward reminder had been released by the system. This game The name is Coffin Village.

"Remember." Yu Xing locked his eyes on the tablet stand, stepped forward to observe it, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "These tablets are all empty and have no words."

Hence, his gaze also shifted to the coffin: "I have seen this coffin until now...Sister, knock on it and see, maybe the person lying inside will respond to you~"

"..." Xiao Xuechen is not afraid. She has played so many games that she will not be frightened by the language. She just has a new understanding of the bad taste of her teammate.

 Her ability to judge people is better than many others. In addition to a woman's intuition, she also has the ability to develop in reality.

Seeing Yu Xing's innocent expression at this time, Xiao Xuechen snorted coldly in his heart: What shyness and shyness are all hallucinations! This guy, if you cut it open, it must be a very-very dark guy.

If it weren't for his good looks, this kind of person would have been beaten long ago!

"correct."

Someone whom she evaluated as Bai Qiehei spoke again: "The person lying in this coffin should be Zhou Yongsheng. The village chief said that today is the seventh day of Zhou Yongsheng's life."

Under the gaze of Xiao Xuechen's slightly widened eyes, he really knocked on the coffin lid twice, and said in a protracted voice with a smile: "What do ghosts do on the first seven days?"
