After the whole network was blacked out, I made the boss the canary

As expected, the guests all showed their ID cards one after another, implicitly taking them as the leader.

But the higher you jump, the harder you fall.

If Gu Siyi and Zhou Yun are unable to shoulder their responsibilities, then their high spirits at this moment will backfire on them like a sharp knife, causing more suspicion and targeting.

Chen Shuo ignored Zhou Yun's smug look and fell into deep thought, holding the detective ID card in his hand.

This character is both a detective and a doctor, so there is a high probability that someone will die in this script. It may be related to special plant toxins, or the life-saving method may be related to plants.

There are also archaeologists, and it seems that the treasure is most likely related to the history or legend of the town.

Chen Shu made a superficial analysis in his mind based on the identity card.

But why is there no murderer card in this script-killing game?

The people introduced here have just arrived in the town, so they can’t be the murderers. Never mind, it’s a variety show after all, so it’s normal that it may not be the usual script-killing type.

Chen Shuo was thinking deeply when he was startled by a loud cry as he stepped into the town.

"My child—doctor! Is there a doctor? Save him!"

An old woman was crying over a mannequin in the shape of a child.

You know what, her crying was quite realistic, with tears streaming down her face.

As Chen Shuo was commenting, he caught a glimpse of a corner of eye drops sticking out of the old woman's pocket.

Well, the case was solved. It was fake crying with the help of eye drops.

Zhou Yun was also frightened by the noise and took a few steps back. Only when she saw that it was a fake did she relax and approached the old woman with a concerned look on her face:

"Mother-in-law, what's going on? What happened?"

The old woman grabbed Zhou Yun's arm and said, "Doctor! Doctor! Please save my child!"

Zhou Yun was hurt by the pulling and tried to pull her hand back while shouting, "Mother-in-law, I'm not a doctor! Let me go..."

The old woman let go of her hand and said, "If you're not a doctor, why are you here? Doctor! Doctor! I want a doctor!"

It seems that she is playing a mentally unstable old woman.

Chen Shu watched all this happen.

Xixi swallowed and stepped forward: "I, I'm a doctor!"

The old woman held Xixi's hand earnestly: "Doctor, my child is not dead, please save him!"

Xixi said with concern: "Old lady, don't worry, I'll check his condition first."

Xixi looked at the dummy, feeling a little at a loss as to where to start. She saw a card slot and tentatively put her ID card in it.

The dummy beeped and played a mechanical voice:

"The patient is poisoned and his vital signs are weak. Use a strong antidote to temporarily stabilize his condition. Please find a real antidote herb to treat him within half a month."

It seems that this is the "main mission", a very old-fashioned script.

However, does this ID card have to be held by the person himself to be valid, or can it be valid even if someone else holds it?

Chen Shuo silently kept this doubt in mind.

Gu Siyi spoke:

"Everyone has heard that we need to find an antidote to save this child. This tells us that we will definitely need the cooperation of a doctor and a botanist."

"Botanists and doctors are divided into two detoxification teams to search for detoxification herbs. The others can follow whichever team they want, or they can choose to explore freely."

Most of the guests were reluctant to give up the clues that were right in front of them, and they all agreed with Gu Siyi's grouping. Only Xixi, who was suddenly arranged to be in the same group with Zhou Yun, was a little at a loss.

After all, Xixi had the experience of openly confronting Zhou Yun before, so how come she was grouped together with Zhou Yun? This was obviously intentional.

I just don't know whether it was because of the first public clue in Xixi's hand, or he was deliberately looking for an opportunity to harass her.

Chen Shuo gave her a soothing look and shook his phone to indicate that he was contacting her, and Xixi calmed down.

Chen Shuo watched the two groups go away and had no intention of following them.

Seeing that most people had left, the old woman sat down on a bench to rest, but she didn't expect that Chen Shuo hadn't left, so she froze there for a moment.

Chen Shuo tried to hold back his smile, lest the old woman get angry and go crazy:

"Old lady, I'm a detective. I want to know why your child was poisoned?"

The old woman started to act crazy again:

"Doctor, doctor, are you here to save my child? Thank you, thank you!"

Statement patiently repeated: "I'm not a doctor, I'm a detective."

The old woman insisted: "Doctor, please check my child's condition!"

This was repeated two more times, and the figure in the distant corner completely disappeared.

Chen Shu smiled: "Old lady, I'm a detective."

The old woman couldn't stand it anymore: "You idiot! Are you crazy or am I? I'm crazy and you're still asking me questions!"

Chen Shuo grinned: "Great, it turns out that you can occasionally regain consciousness, mother-in-law. Can you tell me what happened to your child?"

The old woman muttered: "How come this idiot looks more like an NPC than me?"

Chen Shuo tilted his head slightly, as if he was tired of squatting, and changed his posture, revealing the camera behind him.

The old woman's face froze, and she quickly got into the mood. The stiffness of her lines was obviously improvised:

"Yes, yes... I am rarely sober, and I didn't expect to run into Gua, cough, baby you!"

"Old lady, don't be nervous or anxious. What happened?"

The old woman looked resentful and racked her brains to recall the background of this identity:

"Oh, that's right! My child was playful and went to the mountains to bring back a few strangers. Not long after, he fell ill. It seems that he was punished by the mountain god because he ate the offerings of the mountain god!"

"Mountain God? What kind of mountain god is that? Does he have a title?"

"This... the mountain god is the mountain god, in charge of this piece of land."

"How often do you worship?"

"Well...if you want to worship, then worship. I won't go up the mountain to disturb the mountain god if I have nothing to do."

So people only worship the mountain god when they want to pray to him. Is this mountain god the "murderer"?

If I cure this child, will I be punished by the mountain god?

Chen Shu was just randomly guessing in her heart. The current plot development was so common that it really didn't arouse her interest.

"Then I want to go to the mountain temple to investigate. Old lady, can you lead the way?"

The old woman evaded the question: "Alas, my legs and feet are not good, it's not very convenient."

Chen Shuo sighed: "Is that so? It seems that you don't really want to save your child. Then there is no need for me, a detective, to conduct an investigation without a commission."

The intercom on the old woman's waist emitted a red light warning of violating her character. She became anxious instantly:

"Hey hey hey! You idiot! Oh no, great detective, if you don't mind, just come to my house and have a seat. Although I have a disability, I can get you a map!!"

Chen Shu curled his lips: "Then do you want to entrust me with something?"

The old woman's eyes flickered, and she said reluctantly:

"Yes, please, great detective, please investigate the cause of my child's death. For this, I am willing to hand over the treasure that my family has treasured for many years."
