"Number 26, why did you kill him?"

Wu Ying seemed to find the mechanism quite interesting, and kept resting her chin on her hand, observing everyone's expressions with great interest.

It wasn't until Tang Yunxi specifically asked her that she turned her gaze away, speaking casually as if this incident wasn't a stain, but a badge of honor worth showing off.

"When I was in school, a small group bullied me for three years. Later, I felt that people like them were just wasting resources, so I put drugs in the milk tea I bought."

"……oh."

Tang Yunxi felt a mix of emotions, unable to describe the feeling, and could only remain silent.

Next up was player number 9's turn to ask a question. He nervously rubbed his hands together as he spoke.

"I'd like to know, where do you rank your crimes?"

Player 16 glanced at him, clearly a little surprised that he would ask such a question. The question seemed difficult to answer, but it also seemed quite simple.

"I'm definitely in the top four."

Number 9 and 11 clearly haven't killed anyone, while the other four have all killed, so I'm definitely in the top four.

Wu Ying pondered for a moment: "Maybe I'll be in the top three?"

Both of them had green lights on, which shows that they were speaking from the heart. After all, a lie detector can detect the truth but not the right or wrong.

When it was Yi Zanglan's turn, she stared at the six words on the blackboard for a long time, expressionless, seemingly lost in thought.

She finally answered calmly, "I believe I am innocent."

Yan Zhao nodded with a cold smile: "I also believe I am innocent."

As soon as he finished speaking, the green light turned on.

"I'll either be fifth or sixth."

Tang Yunxi initially thought it was a stupid question, but when she looked at her two teammates, she subtly realized that they were genuinely recalling something and were truly thinking about it.

They not only believed they were innocent, but also believed that no one had the right to judge them as guilty.

On the other side, player number 9 was very annoyed that he had wasted an opportunity. This time, he decided to ask Tang Yunxi, at least to find out who was in last place.

"Number 11, even if you haven't killed anyone, have you ever hurt anyone?"

"No," Tang Yunxi said frankly. "They're the ones who hurt me."

The green light comes on.

Player 16 had clearly prepared his questions, his sinister gaze fixed on Yi Zanglan and Yan Zhao.

He had a general understanding of Wu Ying's situation, so he should ask these two women.

"Number 12, who have you killed?"

Yi Zanglan smiled and said succinctly: "Rotten person."

The green light came on again, and the problem was easily glossed over.

Damn, that's really cunning!

Having been caught off guard, Number 16 grew increasingly angry and quickly adjusted his questioning style, directing his criticism at Yan Zhao.

"Number 24, please describe in detail how you committed the murder."

The prison guards said that you can ask any question, but the decision on how to define the answer is ultimately in your own hands.

Yan Zhao remained silent for a few seconds. No one knew what she remembered during those few seconds, but when she looked up, everything returned to calm.

She said, "How specific can I be? I killed my dad, my mom, my brother, my whole family."

"..."

The green light is on.

The atmosphere plummeted to freezing point.

As Yan Zhao said this, he stared at Number 16, making Number 16 feel a chill down his spine and get goosebumps all over his body.

He quickly wrote her number on the first line of the answer sheet.

Is there even a need to think about it? This woman is absolutely number one!

……

When it was Wu Ying's turn, she observed Yi Zanglan for a long time but couldn't make up her mind.

She found herself curious about this woman, after all, she had never forgotten how Yi Canglan had used sound to pinpoint her location that night and directly grabbed her knife while she was invisible.

Since she unleashed her special skill, no one has ever been able to dodge her blade.

At that moment, curiosity even overshadowed the competitive desire to guess the ranking correctly.

Oh well, she doesn't need a reduced sentence anyway, so the morning's study assignments are just a way for her to kill time.

She asked, "Number 12, what was your previous job?"

Yi Zanglan raised an eyebrow and answered easily and fluently without the slightest hesitation.

"A critically ill patient at Liushan Anding Hospital, patient number 27319."

"..."

This was completely unexpected not only by Wu Ying, but also by No. 9 and No. 16.

Since they didn't know Yi Zanglan before, they were naturally shocked by this answer.

Is he/she mentally ill? Or severely ill?

You can't tell at all!

But the green light came on, proving that Yi Zanglan was not lying.

Aside from Yan Zhao's calm and unsurprised expression, even Tang Yunxi couldn't help but glance at Yi Zanglan.

She had watched Yi Zanglan's live stream and knew a little about it, but she thought that Yi Zanglan was just pretending to be a mental patient to confuse other players.

It turned out that it was the truth.

Wu Ying looked confused. She couldn't figure out the cause and effect. How could it be that it seemed like a huge lie, but the lie detector judged it to be true?

Undeterred, she asked again, "Did you kill someone before going to the mental hospital, or did you go to the mental hospital first and then kill someone?"

This time, Yi Zanglan truly considered it carefully, and his final answer was:

"Yes, we have them all."

The green light is on.

"..."

Wu Ying was stunned.

The exciting moments on the field kept coming one after another, and at the same time, the live broadcast room was buzzing with excitement.

【You have them all? What does "you have them all" mean?!】

Did she start killing before she was admitted to the mental hospital, and continue killing after she was admitted? Is she a walking meat grinder? Does this make sense?

Is the lie detector broken? Doesn't the system even get checked?

[Let's put aside this madman for now. Is Yan Zhao any better? She just confessed to killing her entire family!]

No wonder one is a prisoner and the other a curse master; system titles are never given out randomly!

I'm a little confused about which of these two should be ranked first!

[But actually, this round isn't that difficult. Two of these six players just happen to be exceptionally skilled. The top two and bottom two are practically a foregone conclusion. With a little thought, you should be able to guess the outcome fairly accurately—what if you tried it with six average players who are completely indistinguishable?]

……

Now it's Yi Zanglan's turn to ask a question.

She was writing on the answer sheet, clearly already having the answers in mind; asking questions was just a formality.

Moreover, she showed no interest in anyone else, instead chatting as if she were talking to her teammates.

She asked Yan Zhao, "Will you regret the things you've done?"

"Probably," Yan Zhao replied calmly. "I regret not letting them suffer more before they died."

"Then you're better than me." Then she asked Tang Yunxi, "Compared to before, were you happier, or are you happier now?"

Tang Yunxi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "I'm even happier now."

"Okay, that's good. I wish you continued happiness."

The other three people listening in: "..."

What are they even talking about?!

Then Yan Zhao quickly wrote a few lines on the answer sheet and raised his hand to signal.

"I have no further questions. I abstain."
