Absurd Deduction Game

 Chapter 80 The newcomer competition begins

Yu Xing and Qu Nianqing are undoubtedly action types. After deciding to go to Fuhua City, they bought the latest ticket to Fuhua City and rushed to the airport.

 Neither of them brought any luggage, and planned to buy some somewhere else. After the plane took off, Yu Xing took out his mobile phone to check the recent news in Fuhua City, and unexpectedly discovered a recent case.

 With the deducers of the Fallen Line, it would be impossible to live in this place.

He used a search engine, which did not show any valuable internal information. He only briefly mentioned that young men had their throats cut occasionally on rainy nights in the city recently, and the police suspected that it was the same person.

"Cut your throat..." Yu Xing's eyes darkened. He took a look at the weather forecast of Fuhua City. There have been more than one rainstorm in the past month. The rainstorms come and go quickly. If every crime is completed in the rain, it means that the criminal is in advance. It is planned and in control of one's actions, not an impulsive crime without consciousness.

People in the fallen line can be roughly divided into two types. One is those who cannot restrain their inner desire to kill. They may not be able to bear it anymore while walking, so they randomly choose a target to kill.

 The other type is a highly intelligent criminal who has a well-planned plan and enjoys not only killing but also playing tricks on others.

 In situations of equal strength, the latter is much more difficult to deal with than the former.

Yu Xing smiled vaguely, his eyes full of coldness.

 …

 After getting off the plane, the sky above Fuhua Market was overcast, and it was sultry and oppressive.

 This is a developing city. Although it is nominally a third-tier city, its economic strength and consumption level are growing steadily. The street buildings in the city center are very beautiful.

After entering the city, Yu Xing's perception of Ling Heng became clearer. Ling Heng's position was motionless, and he must have found a place to live.

In order to facilitate tracking, Yu Xing took Qu Xianqing to live in the hotel where Ling Heng lived. He lived in the room directly below Ling Heng. But Qu Xianqing arrogantly stayed in Ling Heng because he had never met Ling Heng. Heng next door.

 The two simply bought some daily necessities and clothes, and then began to spy on people with malicious intentions.

 For the next 30 days, Ling Heng did not step out of the room except to eat in the restaurant.

 The members of the Single Prism in Floating Flower City were just as Yu Xing imagined. They were very cautious and did not come to see Ling Heng directly. They were probably waiting for an opportunity.

Qu Nianqing didn't want to wait passively, so he took advantage of this time to visit several places where the previous crime occurred.

She is very capable and can avoid plainclothes police and surveillance. She completes the identity information of the deceased through conventional means such as visiting the deceased's neighbors, making insinuations, and investigating the social relationships of the deceased.

Yu Xing spent a day and a half making soy sauce, staying at the hotel to eat, drink, and sleep. At most, she provided some remote opinions to Qu Nianqing when she went out to investigate.

 Because Qu Nianqing had sacrifices to reduce his sense of existence, but he did not.

Yu Xing estimated that with his current physical condition, he would be exhausted halfway through the investigation. If he was discovered by the police who were secretly monitoring him, there would be a lot more trouble.

 So he should just be a lazy fish.

 Seventeen days have passed since the first deceased with his throat cut was found. During this period, there were many heavy rains and three new victims were found.

The police were under great pressure and did not want to cause panic, so they kept a low profile in the investigation. Qu Nianqing had no way of knowing the progress of the police investigation and could only start with the deceased.

On the evening of the 30th, Qu Nianqing said to Yu Xing: "I will sort out the information and send it to you. You first have to deal with the rookie competition after midnight."

 The newcomer competition starts at 0:00 on the 31st and does not occupy real time. After all viewers confirm to watch, the time flow rate will be unified. If you choose to exit the live broadcast midway, you will not be able to enter again.

Yu Xing is quite looking forward to the rookie competition. After all, he has never performed in front of many people. It is quite exciting to think about it.

 …

 When it was five minutes before midnight, Yu Xing received a system prompt. 【The newcomer competition is about to begin and you are about to enter the live broadcast room. Are you ready? 】

Yu Xing looked at Qu Xianqing who was visiting his room.

 Maybe this is a common problem among women... Qu Nianqing said that there were many female deductions watching the live broadcast, so he asked him to take advantage of his own advantages, tidy up well, and dress nicely, so that he could get a lot of rewards.

 He was very unconvinced by this.

With his face, does it matter what he wears?

Then Qu Nianqing ignored him.

“Have I entered the game?” Yu Xing said hello to her.

“Okay, I’m here to remind you that you can watch.” Qu Xianqing nodded and closed his eyes.

 Yu Xing chose to enter.

 Suddenly, his eyes fell into darkness, as if the whole world suddenly turned off the lights.

Yu Xing immediately felt that the surroundings had become cold and cramped. He reached out and touched it, and found that there were metal walls behind him and on both sides.

 Knowing it in his heart, he touched it upwards, and sure enough, the top of his head was also metal.

 He was like being locked up in a small box, like a commodity that had been deprived of vision and imprisoned.

"Why do I feel that the system's space transition between reality and deduction games is getting smoother... I was lethargic for a while before, but now it's just a blink of an eye." Thinking secretly in his mind, Yu Xing moved forward.

At present, only the front has not touched the edge. He knows without thinking that he should move forward.

After walking for more than ten steps in the dark, Yu Xing overturned his initial imagination of this space.

This is not a box, but a narrow corridor, with a faint light in the distance.

 He quickened his pace. He had not officially entered the game yet. Qu Nianqing told him that before the official start of the rookie competition, each participant would have a period of "appearance" and preparation time.

Yu Xing got closer and closer to the light, and finally he saw the source of the light clearly.

That is actually a screen.

 The screen reflected the surrounding environment. The corridor he was in was green, only about one meter wide and two meters high.

For a man like him, who is 185cm tall, this place is too narrow and can easily cause psychological panic and depression.

 He stopped in front of the screen and looked at it.

 The screen is divided into three parts, with a countdown at the top showing [4:12], [4:11]…

 The lower part is lines of text, and the middle part…

Yu Xing looked at the popping barrages on the screen in the middle part of the screen with amusement.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Coming, coming, look at this silhouette, it's a man's. ]

He showed up, and it turned out to be a man. It was boring, so I went next door. ]

  [What kind of magical appearance do I have! ]

  [Ouch, your expression is very calm, that’s my thing. ]

　　[He saw the barrage, hahahaha hello! ]

  [A pretty boy, disgusting]

  [The upstairs is sour, sour, sour]

 It seems that this barrage is real-time. Perhaps this is the only opportunity for the presenter to interact with the audience during the entire live broadcast.

 The barrage is very active. At first glance, it looks like melon-eating friends watching the live broadcast in real life. It is difficult to imagine that this is a group of differentiated gamers.
