I played the devil's game with Yang Shou, and I got into the soul with one shot!

"What do you mean?" Xia Shi stared at Su Yi.

Su Yi continued: "If there really is a cult."

"Then undoubtedly, they often construct a distorted doctrine system, giving the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth mysterious symbolic meanings. Just like the doctrine of the Heavenly Father."

"If suicide is done in the five-element way, it may be seen as an act of completing a 'sacred ritual'. They believe that this can achieve some kind of 'transcendence' of evil or satisfy the 'certain order' advocated by the cult, and embody the cult's so-called 'essence of doctrine' through this extreme and bizarre way."

"Using a unique and complex five-element method to commit suicide can increase the mystery of the cult, making believers feel that this is an act that can only be performed by a special group of people who are "selected". This uniqueness makes believers believe in the authority of the cult more blindly, and also makes the cult's control over believers more solid."

Xia Shi nodded silently. He had thought about this before, but not as clearly, thoroughly and...detailedly as Su Yi's analysis.

Why does Su Yi seem to be studying this aspect? Xia Shi and Liu Hu looked at each other and saw a strange look in each other's eyes.

"You founded a cult..." Song Ya on the side said blankly. Obviously, she didn't expect Su Yi to be able to explain it in such detail.

Su Yi continued: "Cults like this have only two ways to control their followers through psychological manipulation."

"The first is long-term brainwashing, through which they instill distorted worldviews and values ​​into believers. For example, in daily "sermons" and "gatherings", they constantly emphasize the "impermanence" and "pain" of life, and that death is the only way to a "beautiful world."

"Through repeated ideological indoctrination, believers gradually reduce their fear of death and begin to identify with the 'way of liberation' preached by the cult."

"The second is... emotional kidnapping. Cults often create a 'family-like' atmosphere among their followers, which makes them feel a strong sense of belonging and dependence on the cult organization."

"Then they take advantage of this emotion and tell believers that if they don't do things according to 'God's will', it would be a betrayal of the organization and would bring disaster to their families."

"The family members they refer to are often cult members or their own families. It could be any of these."

Su Yi's answer stunned the three people present...

so detailed?

"It's a bit like an expert..." Tang Hu touched his temple. He was increasingly unable to understand Su Yi in front of him.

He was missing for 12 years. Could he have joined some cult?

So the current situation...

"If the other four people may have participated in a cult organization... then what about you..." Xia Shize spoke frankly and asked what she wanted to say directly.

Su Yi glanced at Wan Ziqiong who was sleeping beside him: "Of course... no..."

"This is what I meant by first, bewitching."

"I have always hated cults. After experiencing the case 12 years ago, I only dabbled in them briefly." Su Yi said naturally.

"Then the second necessity must be that the cult must do this." Xia Shi asked.

"Yes, that's right." Su Yi said.

In this world, he knew very well that powerful superpowers required a medium or some kind of restrictions.

"As for necessity, it is possible that the psychic who manipulated people to commit suicide needed restrictions to use his psychic powers."

"Of course, it could also be a necessary condition for the cult to achieve its goals."

"There are many possibilities. In other words, they have no choice but to do this."

Song Ya heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Su Yi's words.

"But there is another strange thing about thinking this way. If there really is a supernatural being who can control them to commit suicide..."

"From this perspective, the claim of a cult may not be real..."

"No." Su Yi and Xia Shi said in unison.

"No, there is most likely such an organization. This organization may not be very large, it may be a small gang." Xia Shi glanced at Su Yi and said.

"If there really wasn't such an organization, Zhu Ni wouldn't have known who would die next. She was very clear and knew she was going to die, but she... didn't want to die!"

Su Yi nodded: "Indeed, from this perspective, Zhu Ni actually knows everything. Only people who understand this matter can know this."

"So this so-called cult or organization is very likely to exist. Yes, it may not be a cult, or an organization, but at least, as Xia Shi said, it is a small gang."

"There is an organization and a purpose." Tang Hu also affirmed.

Su Yi continued: "But you should have also discovered why Zhu Ni didn't tell the police about this? Instead, she told He Lu."

"What does this show? The person who can help him is not the police, but He Lu."

“This is worth our study.”

"Why, when she clearly didn't want to die, could she only tell He Lu?"

When Xia Shi heard Su Yi point out the key point, she was stunned and her heart moved. After Su Yi sorted it out, her mind became clearer and she seemed to have a guess.

"Is it because only He Lu can save him?"

"And why can He Lu save him?"

"That's because... He Lu is her next!"

Su Yi just thought of this from the numerous confusing pieces of information, so he rushed to the next victim's home as fast as he could.

On the one hand, behind her is me,

On the other hand, there is the letter Zhu Ni wrote to He Lu.

He only gave it to the next person, He Lu, and not to anyone else. He also did not tell her parents, teachers, or the police.

Then according to what is said now, perhaps only I can save this fourth person,

Fang Hongyan.

Xia Shi and Tang Hu's eyes both flashed, according to Su Yi's previous remarks.

There may be restrictions on the killing of people with special abilities.

So, will what Su Yi analyzed now be related to whether the psychic's supernatural powers can take effect?

"Xiao Luo, hurry up, drive faster."

"Yes, Captain Tang!"

Su Yi analyzed silently to himself: "The remaining five elements are earth or gold, and then there is water."

"The first person, He Lu, is fire, and the third person, Lu Yu, is wood. The second person looks like he could be earth or gold. I personally think the probability of gold is higher, after all, he died of metal."

"The order of death in the last round was: Jiang Xue was water, Lu Yi was wood, Luo Xiang was gold, Li Qin was fire, and Zhu Ni was earth."

"Water, wood, metal, fire, earth, and this round is fire, metal, wood, or fire, earth, wood."

"It seems like there is no connection... or pattern..." Su Yi analyzed.

Everyone was silent, thinking about what Su Yi had just said and the current case.

Tang Hu looked at Su Yi seriously and couldn't help thinking,

It seemed that Su Yi was really thinking about the case, looking for clues, and studying how to solve this supernatural case.

Instead of hanging it high...

Maybe this man can really be trusted...
