Absurd Deduction Game

Chapter 36 Before the Storm Comes

 Opening his eyes again, Yu Xing was still sitting on the big chair in his bedroom, with a casual posture and a lazy state.

The investigator analogy does not consume real time. It is still a cloudy evening. He remembered that he had hardly eaten on the second day in the game, and his stomach growled.

It happened to be dinner time. Yu Xing rubbed his hair, stood up and stretched his back, then walked out of the bedroom towards the kitchen.

There is plenty of food in the refrigerator. He looked at the ingredients and decided to make sweet and sour pork ribs, kung pao chicken, tomato scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, and a bowl of seaweed and egg soup...all in small portions.

Having been single for so long, her cooking skills have improved day by day. Yu Xing often feels that even if she doesn't have such a face, she can still seduce with her cooking skills - no, she can capture many girls.

He put on his apron skillfully, and while using various knives to process different ingredients, he looked at the changes in the persona in his mind.

In fact, his panel did not change much after the end of Coffin Village. It was just that his deduction points increased from 233 to 934, which was only 66 points away from being promoted to an intermediate deduction. In addition, Ming Zhulei was added to the column of personality sacrifices. name.

 【Personality Sacrifice: &#*|*^(data error), Mingzhu Tears (worn 2/6)】

Before entering Coffin Village, Qu Nianqing mentioned to him the rules for the abilities of sacrifices. The same sacrifice will have different forms and abilities after being fused with different personas.

He has just learned about this, because before becoming a deducer, he could only hear some [absurd] general information from these people. The specific information is restricted by the rules, and the deducer cannot tell ordinary people.

 At this moment, he also wanted to see what the candlestick had become.

After obtaining Mingzhu Tears, it was automatically put on Yu Xing's persona mask. There was a small black prism-shaped pattern on the left cheekbone of the mask, and there was a flame with only light and shadow burning on it.

 He ​​wiped his hands on his apron, and with a thought, he peeled off the sacrifice from the mask, and his hands suddenly felt heavy.

 A simple and exquisite closed hexagonal Chinese-style portable candlestick appeared in his hand. He pinched the hard ring above the candlestick with **** and lifted the candlestick up.

How can I put it... The appearance of this candlestick has changed so much, like a beautifully made revolving lantern. The six sides are carved with different complex patterns. I can’t tell what material it is made of. It is black, like bamboo, like wood, and even a little bit like... iron.

Hands were slightly heavy, and from the fine hollow surface in the middle of the pattern, one could see a candle inserted inside. Perhaps due to the light, Yu Xing couldn't tell whether it was a red candle or a white candle.

 He concentrated his consciousness and looked over, and easily got the information about this sacrifice.

 【Sacrifice: Mingzhu Tears】

  【Form: Chinese style portable candlestick】

[This sacrifice has been fused with "Personal Mask", and the fusion ability is: ① Light the white candle, and the holder will enter a pseudo-ghost state. In this state, the breath is equivalent to zombie-like ghosts (can deceive low-IQ ghosts) , the body becomes stiff and corrupted, and the attack power increases slightly. No time limit, can be used at most once per deduction. ② Light the red candle, and all thinkable things within the scope of the light will enter a state of gradual decay and trance without distinction, lasting ten seconds, and can be used at most once in a deduction. ①②Abilities can be used separately. 】

[Description: After merging with the personality of the deducer Yu Xing, the appearance of the sacrifice turned into an antique carved portable candlestick. There is a candle in the candlestick at all times. The color changes according to the ability used, which is very powerful. 】

【Note: Although its coolness has improved a lot, please don't carry it in white clothes at night, otherwise people may think that they have seen the most handsome ghost agent in history, and you will be the hot search headlines the next day. 】

　　 Yu Xing: "Oh~" I know I'm handsome, but there's no need to even praise me.

His attention was focused on ability ①, and pseudo-ghost transformation and unlimited time aroused his interest.

In other words, if he wants, can he even use ability ① as soon as he enters the game, and then complete the entire deduction with a corpse-like body?

 It seems quite interesting...

 Moreover, Yu Xing had other ideas.

If the white candle is lit, will he...will the negative state of his body still exist? after all…

 A "boom" sound woke him up from his thoughts.

He looked down and saw that he was holding a kitchen knife in his right hand and a candlestick in his left hand. Unknowingly, he chopped the kitchen knife **** the chopping board, and the blade was deeply embedded in it.

Taking back the candlestick with consciousness, Yu Xing touched his nose with his free left hand: "I'm sorry, Chopping Board. Actually, I just don't like it and want to buy a new one."

  Chopping board: wdnmd.

 …

 “I am willing to accept your commission.”

After spending two hours finishing dinner, Yu Xing took out his mobile phone and played with it for a while. As soon as he logged out, he received a voice call from Zhao Mou.

On the other end of the call, Zhao Mou's voice sounded calm and gentle. People who were not familiar with him would never associate him with the "crosstalk actor" he was when he got along with Zhao Yjiu.

"Mr. Zhao Mou seems to be in a good mood?" Yu Xing was sitting at the desk in the study room with a book spread out in front of him. Of course, he was playing with his mobile phone just now, so the book was spread out lonely.

"Well, I have found a clue to something. My family asked me to rush back to Tianjin. Here in Xiaojiu, he has completed the mask assessment. Don't break your promise."

Yu Xing heard noises around Zhao Mou, who seemed to be at the airport. It seemed that he had something urgent to do and needed to fly away overnight.

"Will do."

It's just a matter of protecting Zhao Yijiu at the junior and intermediate levels. He believed that with their abilities, after completing the main mission and adding another deduction, they would be almost ready to be promoted to the advanced level.

At this time, Zhao Mou was sitting comfortably in the terminal in a suit and tie, listening to the announcement of flight times on the radio: "By the way, I have some information to give you about the things you want me to pay attention to." Yu Xing's pupils shrank. , the fingers holding the phone suddenly tightened, but in just a moment, he returned to normal: "Is it a single prism?"

“Yes, I can’t get the actor’s information for the time being, but I did have an interesting revelation this morning.”

The reason why Zhao Mou has become famous recently is, in addition to his IQ and layout, there is also a very important reason - the divination ability that one of his sacrifices brought to him.

No one can be sure which sacrifice allowed Zhao Mou to obtain this rare ability. It was not just divination, but also omens and luck. Some people even speculated that he had more than one related sacrifice, otherwise he would not be in the world. So strong in this aspect.

Yu Xing also understood this from Qu Xianqing's mouth, so he decided to cooperate with Zhao Mou, because in terms of investigative ability alone, he himself was not bad, and he also had Zhu Yan as his helper. Only divination, this kind of Special powers he doesn't have.

 “What kind of revelation?” he asked.

Zhao Mou was bored and fiddled with the puppet pendant tied to the handle of his suitcase: "Tomorrow, southwest of Mijin City, there will be a celebration. The single prism member you want will leave clues there."

"I remember." Yu Xing thanked him and hung up the phone.

 Southwest direction, celebration…

 He raised his eyebrows.

Isn’t that Ruibo University?

 A certain member of Monoprism will appear at Ruibo University tomorrow?

Thinking of this, his eyes became cold.

　　All members of Monopris are lunatics, anti-social and anti-human personalities abound, and almost all members are depraved. Generally, as long as they appear, they will inevitably cause death and disaster.

 Ruibo University has Zhu Yan...

It seems that he must arrive as early as possible tomorrow to avoid anything happening to Zhu Yan.

 After all, she is just an ordinary person.

 …

 Ruibo University, anniversary.

As an annual festival, Ruibo’s school anniversary has always been very popular.

Every year on this day, Ruibo will open tourist areas and small game areas in every corner of the campus, and open the campus to allow tourists to come in and visit, turning the school anniversary into a large exhibition.

It is said that the original intention of the school anniversary was to promote the campus culture of Ruibo. As a result, the school was too big and the person in charge could not manage it, so the rights to hold activities were handed over to various societies. This is great. Facts have proved that we will never One cannot underestimate how much fun college students can have.

After several events, Ruibo’s school anniversary has become a small festival for the people of Mijin City. Many people from outside the school will go to join in the fun that day, causing the school to be full of people.

Yu Xing doesn't like to be in crowds of people, especially in summer and winter. In summer, if there are too many people, it will kill you from the heat, but in winter, people are like spheres packed together, and those who ask for WeChat to chat are very annoying. .

He originally planned to accompany Zhu Yan around and have fun from beginning to end, support Zhu Yan in front of her classmates, and not lose anyone, but now it seems that he has to check the movements of the single prism .

 Early in the morning, after confirming the time with Zhu Yan, Yu Xing deliberately tidied up.

He was wearing a large white printed T-shirt. The full name on the Internet was "Fifth-quarter-sleeve Korean boys' trendy brand loose college style T-shirt." Although he couldn't understand the purpose of such a long list of prefixes and suffixes, the name I was persuaded to give up, but the clothes themselves were okay. I put on a pair of jeans and a thick sports bracelet. It was indeed pleasing to the eye, and I felt much younger.

Hmm... Zhu Yan bought it for him online based on her personal aesthetics. Yu Xing estimated that wearing it this way would be more in line with the tastes of contemporary young people.

 At least Zhu Yan should be very happy, just like when he held a parent-teacher meeting for her before.

Yu Xing put on his peaked cap and left the community, bought four steamed buns, picked up a small bicycle on the roadside, and wandered towards Ruibo University.

When he arrived at the school gate, Zhu Yan was talking with a few friends in the shade, seemingly waiting for him.

Yu Xing parked the car and found that it was only nine o'clock and there were already a lot of people. He ignored the looks of the people around him and walked towards Zhu Yan with gentle steps.

“Isn’t it true that my brother is not my boyfriend? Didn’t you say that none of my family members are in Mijin City~” He had good hearing and could hear the girl with light makeup next to Zhu Yan joking.

"Stop making trouble." Zhu Yan tied her hair into a ponytail and wore a very designed off-shoulder T-shirt and high-waisted hot pants. The hem of the clothes was tucked into the pants, revealing her slender waist.

Her brain was confused as soon as she heard this question, and it was hard to explain. She could only guess along with her classmates: "Just show off your affection every day, okay? Don't always think that everyone else is single."

“Tch, how can I show off my affection?” the girl with light makeup said while holding the arm of her boyfriend beside her.

Zhu Yan rolled her eyes at her.

These are all friends from her music club. They had nothing to do in the morning, so they came over and were curious about who she invited.

 Speaking of which, why hasn’t Yu Xing arrived yet...

Just as she was thinking about it, she guessed the answer from the sudden change in the eyes of her friends.

The next moment, the plastic bag containing the greasy buns was placed on her finger, and a familiar voice said with a smile: "Breakfast, stuffed with vermicelli, eat it quickly."

Yu Xing: I worry about my brother, my boss, my old father, and I have to help her show off (ω)
