a quarter of his

The place where the book was published was in a community opposite the old campus.

In the past few years, with the popularity of "Star Detective", reasoning games have become a little popular.Many people saw business opportunities and rented [-] to [-]-square-meter rooms in residential buildings near colleges and universities, decorated them a little, made a few partitions, bought some props, and put them on Dianping and Meituan for business.

There is no appearance fee, and the decoration cost is less than that of the escape room. You can make money by buying a few scripts, which is simply a costless business.

Lin Jingfan and the others got off the elevator on the 20th floor. Along the way, they saw several rooms with open doors, such as escape rooms, VR experience halls, DIY cakes, etc. They were all doing business for college students, so they couldn't help but click their tongues.

"It would be nice to open a shop like this in front of the school after graduation," Lin Jingfan said, "Students' money is really easy to make."

"That's enough, Fanzi," Xie Chao mocked, "The alma mater is waiting for you to come back and become a well-known alumnus. You go out the door to earn money from your juniors and sisters."

"What's wrong with earning money from my juniors and younger sisters?" Xiang Tian said, "How do you know that the owner of the shop is not our former seniors and sisters, maybe he will become a well-known alumni after opening it."

There were a total of seven people who came to play the game, besides Lin Jingfan and Zhou Hao, Xie Chaozhuang Mengyuan and his wife, Xiang Tian and two class committee members from other classes, all of them were Lin Jingfan's good friends, and they were also better than the other.

After sitting down, Lin Jingfan first introduced Zhou Hao to his friends one by one, and then said: "This is my intern colleague and roommate, named Zhou Hao, Mr. Zhou's Zhou, Ri Tianhao, a second graduate student in the Computer Department of G University. , everyone can call him brother Hao or brother."

"Wow, G is big", everyone was amazed.

"Brother is awesome!"

"Brother Hao is awesome!"

Lin Jingfan and these few friends are also age figures in C University, occupying the top 985 years of age all the year round.However, there are also barriers between universities. Although C University is [-], in terms of the comprehensive level of the school, it is still suppressed by G University after all these years.

When a bully sees a bully, there is always a sense of sympathy.These few friends of Lin Jingfan were also very familiar, and immediately greeted Zhou Hao warmly.

"Hello, everyone," Zhou Hao nodded briefly, and simply said hello.

Lin Jingfan had vaccinated everyone in the group the night before, and didn't mention anything else. He only said that this friend is relatively introverted and withdrawn, and he is not good at expressing himself. Therefore, no one felt uncomfortable when he said that. .

The proprietress pushed open the door with a stack of scripts, and began to introduce the stories of each script to them.

Seven people have two popular ones, one is an ancient script, asking about the dynasty, the identity of the protagonist, the region, etc., the proprietress will keep it secret, and only say that there is no spoiler at all.The other is a spy war script, and it is said that there will be a decisive battle at the end.

The seven people were undecided between the two. Xie Chao raised his head and asked, "Is it true? Don't engage in that kind of parallel world travel through time and space, which is really unexpected."

"Both of them belong to the original style," said the proprietress, and Lin Jingfan lowered his head and softly explained to Zhou Hao what "original style" meant.

"I know," Zhou Hao whispered, "I read it in the book."

Lin Jingfan was relieved, and asked the others: "What should we choose? Or choose the spy war "Island", it sounds very exciting."

Lin Jingfan knew that if he chose the ancient one, a group of bad friends would definitely force him to play the role of the eldest lady or the maid. Ever since he knew that he had performed Chu Yuxun at the annual meeting, it has become a repertoire of the party. Busy proposed to choose the script of the era.

However, when drawing the script blindly, he still drew a female character.

"Hahaha who did the heavens bypass?" Zhuang Mengyuan smiled gloatingly, "Resign yourself to your fate, Fanzi."

The character Lin Jingfan got in the script was called Liu Xiangren, who appeared to be a patriotic female reporter.Her father, a member of the underground party, died unfortunately during an interception of Kuomintang intelligence. Her mission to the isolated island this time was to replace her father to assassinate the intelligence dealer "Camel", and use a fake token-a chess to defraud the real information. Help our teammates kill the Kuomintang agents...

It is a righteous character, and Lin Jingfan was very satisfied after getting the script.Every time he plays this kind of game, he is very honest. If he plays a villain or a murderer, he always has a guilty conscience, and he will be spotted right away.

After reading the script, one needs to introduce himself first. Lin Jingfan knows that in this kind of script, everyone has a superficial identity to cover up their true intentions, and they will not reveal it in public chats, and can only rely on private chats later. some information.

After a round of introductions, Lin Jingfan probably remembered everyone's identities, and then came to the private chat stage.

The first round of tasks - all players complete their own tasks in the first stage.

Everyone can freely choose characters to chat with, or conduct private transactions. Lin Jingfan knows that his purpose is to exchange fake keepsake chess to obtain real information, and there are also people on his side who carry false information to fish in troubled waters, so he must first find his teammates. .

In the first round, he had a private chat with Xiang Tian.

The two first chatted about some irrelevant story backgrounds, and Xiang Tian straight to the point: "What is your purpose for coming to "Island"?"

"I heard that there is a gang of officials and bandits here, and they are doing some illegal arms transactions. As a patriotic reporter, I am here to expose this evil deed." Lin Jingfan made up a reason casually, while thinking about Xiang Tian's identity.

Xiang Tian's character in the script is the son of a landlord, nicknamed "Scholar". The task in Lin Jingfan's script is to assist the scholar and get rid of the Kuomintang.However, is this scholar that scholar? He decided to test it out.

"Do you have anything to give me?" If Xiang Tian is really a scholar, then he must have false information in his hands.

Clinker Xiang Tian shook his head in confusion: "I don't know."

"Do you have anything to give to me?" Xiang Tian asked Lin Jingfan with a sly smile.

The two were too familiar, when Xiang Tian asked this, Lin Jingfan felt strange, and said cautiously: "No."

The two separated, and Lin Jingfan chatted with several people one after another. When it was Zhou Hao's turn to chat privately, before he could speak, Zhou Hao said directly: "Do you want to hand over something to me?"

Lin Jingfan: "!!!"

Is Zhou Hao an enemy or a friend?

Lin Jingfan felt that he was already in a state of desperation.There must be two camps, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Zhou Hao is the Kuomintang?Or did a few teammates think of themselves as the KMT?

"Are you a good person or a bad person?" Lin Jingfan looked at him warily.

"A good person," Zhou Hao said, "From a historical point of view, I am a good person. What is your identity?"

"Tell me your identity first," Lin Jingfan said.

"I am the Communist Party," Zhou Hao said, "You took a fake chess set and exchanged it for fake information, right?"

"Are you saving the National Assembly?" Lin Jingfan didn't expect Zhou Hao to admit his identity like this, "You have false information?"

Zhou Hao took out an item of information from his hand and handed it to him: "The real information should be on your friend's boyfriend."

"Xie Chao?" Lin Jingfan raised his eyebrows, "How do you know?"

"I just asked him if he also had an intelligence report, and he told me."

"Then what should we do now?" Lin Jingfan asked, "What is your task?"

"Kill the 'camel', kill the Kuomintang, and give false information to the Kuomintang," Zhou Hao said, "I want you to help me find another chess player."

"My task is also to kill camels." Lin Jingfan had already completely believed that Zhou Hao and himself belonged to the same country, "Then I'll go to Xie Chao to deceive information, you can test Yuanyuan, I haven't talked to her yet. "

"No hurry." Zhou Hao took out a pen, sat on the chair and began to write and draw. "Let's analyze the whole situation first."

"So far, there should be four forces on the field, the country, the Communist Party, the warlords, and the bandits..."

"Isn't there only the country and the Communist Party?" Lin Jingfan was shocked.

"If my guess is right," Zhou Hao continued to draw on the paper, "warlords and bandits should be free forces. In the final battle, choose one side to attach to. Bandits and warlords are opposing forces, so it is impossible to attach to one side at the same time."

"Everyone's task must be to kill the 'Camel', the 'Camel' will definitely die after the first level, so I guess the next public chat will be to find the murderer..."

"Wait," Lin Jingfan was completely confused, "How did you analyze this? This is your first time playing?"

At this time, the boss knocked on the door outside, and the first round of private chat ended.

"When you get the clues, you are in charge of your two friends, and I am in charge of the remaining two." Before leaving, Zhou Hao glanced back at him.

The seven returned to the round table and sat in a circle again.

The proprietress came in with a stack of new materials, and the first sentence was:

"The camel died."

Lin Jingfan: "!!!"

The second round of tasks - find the murderer who killed the "camel".

Several people draw a new script, after reading it, they state their alibi, look for the murderer, and select the four least suspicious people to draw new clues.

Sure enough, Zhou Hao guessed it right again.

Lin Jingfan and Zhou Hao operated in secret during the voting session. Both of them had the opportunity to draw new clues, and finally voted Zhuang Mengyuan as the murderer.

Lin Jingfan was almost convinced that Zhuang Mengyuan was the KMT who brought the token to hand over the information, and immediately leaned back in her chair expectantly, waiting for her to accept the punishment—showing her "secret props" and revealing her first mission.

"Damn, who is my teammate, pig teammate?" Zhuang Mengyuan stood up through gritted teeth, and read: "My first task is to assist members of the 'Salvation Council' to defraud the KMT's intelligence."

Lin Jingfan was dumbfounded for a moment, and looked at Zhou Hao in disbelief.

Zhuang Mengyuan is his teammate!

In Lin Jingfan's heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses roared past, but he couldn't show it too clearly. When he looked at Zhuang Mengyuan, the latter gave him a hard look.

"We were both cheated," Zhuang Mengyuan said in a private chat after listening to Lin Jingfan's situation, "I was also cheated by Xie Chao, damn it, I thought he was cheated, but it turned out that In order to play in front of me, they must have exchanged real documents before! Zhou Hao must be the Kuomintang, and Xie Chao, they are the people we want to kill."

"You didn't lie to me too, did you?" Zhuang Mengyuan looked at Lin Jingfan suspiciously while speaking.

"I'm definitely not." Lin Jingfan said with tears streaming down his face, "I'm almost regretting it to death, okay, let me show you my script."

Lin Jingfan spread out the script directly to Zhuang Mengyuan to read, and the two were completely tied to death. Lin Jingfan said: "Zhou Hao said, the remaining few people should be free forces. How much chance we have of winning depends on how much we recruit." People...Damn, this guy is too secretive, I trust him so much..."

While talking, Xiang Tian pushed the door in and said angrily, "Men are big pigs! I'm here to take refuge with you two."

So the trio of girlfriends joined forces, and began to lobby other forces to join.

The third round - the ultimate battle.

In the last round, it was basically clear that the forces of the two parties had been basically determined, and they needed to use the chips given before the game to secretly shoot arms and armor to kill people.

All ordnance players make their own bids, and the highest bidder wins.

This round basically relied on brains and luck. Lin Jingfan, Xiang Tian and Zhuang Mengyuan also recruited another person to join the group, discussed the things they wanted to shoot, and went to the boss to bid.

However, I don’t know if their luck was too bad, or the other party predicted their bids in advance. Almost all the things they took were unsold. They only managed to piece together a gun and two bullets, but they didn’t have a set of armor. Ping Ren gun's rhythm.

"It's dead," Xiang Tian said with a bitter face.

The decisive battle begins.

The proprietress walked in with an evil smile, showed a 98K and a Browning pistol, and said sinisterly: "I didn't expect that, I am a 'Camel'."

Lin Jingfan and the others had already guessed her identity after some deduction earlier, so they weren't too surprised, but they didn't expect that the 'Camel' had guns and armor.

Suddenly he understood that the ultimate goal of this game should be to let the two forces fight first, and the winning side needs to kill the 'camel' to get the highest reward.

On the Kuomintang side, Zhou Hao was in charge of shooting, and Xie Chao was in charge of putting on the armor.

Zhou Hao showed the cards representing the gun body, magazine, and bullets, picked up the mold gun on the side, raised his wrist slightly, and aimed the gun at Lin Jingfan.

The previous props were all small cards, until the moment the gun came out, Lin Jingfan suddenly entered the scene. He looked at Zhou Hao's indifferent eyes, and a strong feeling of being betrayed suddenly invaded his whole body. , which made him feel extremely wronged.

However, Zhou Hao turned the gun slightly and pointed it at a boy beside Lin Jingfan.

"I'll kill 'Tie Nan'", Zhou Hao read out the name of the boy's character.

Boss: "Is there any Tier [-] A?"

Boy: "No."

The trigger was pulled, there was no bullet, and there was an empty sound, and the boy stood in regret.

The next moment, Zhou Hao pointed his gun at Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian also has no armor and leaves.

The next moment, the gun pointed at Zhuang Mengyuan.

Lin Jingfan felt that he did it on purpose. He knew that Zhou Hao's final mission targets were him, Zhuang Mengyuan and the proprietress "Camel". A person's death is simply a kind of torture, it is better to give him a good time.

Zhuang Mengyuan also went offline.

Lin Jingfan's scalp tightened, it was his turn.

He has completely integrated into the plot at this moment, and he has a tragic feeling of "our party is dead" in his heart, and he only feels that he is sorry for the country and the party.

Thinking of joining the Communist Youth League at the age of 13 and joining the Party at the age of 18, as a successor of socialism with a strong root, I came out to play a game and let the Party lose, I felt a kind of indescribable guilt and sadness.

He looked at Zhou Hao quietly, waiting for the last moment to come, but Zhou Hao suddenly pointed his gun at the "camel".

"Are you going to shoot me?" The proprietress obviously didn't react to his operation.

Zhou Hao nodded, handed out the bullet card again, and fired two shots at the "Camel". The first-level armor and second-level armor of the camel were all destroyed, and another shot would kill him.

At this time, Zhou Hao only had the last bullet left in his hand.

"I told you to kill Fanzi first," the teammate said from the side, "There is still hope of winning."

"One less bullet", Xie Chao seemed to understand what Zhou Hao wanted to do, "It doesn't matter if you kill anyone first."

Zhou Hao didn't say anything, and gave the last bullet to "Camel", "Camel" went offline, and Zhou Haofang's ordnance was exhausted.

"It's your turn." Zhou Hao picked up Browning on the side of the table, twirled it nimbly with his fingertips, and handed the gun head towards him to Lin Jingfan, saying the first sentence after he started the slaughter talk.

The air was stagnant for two seconds, and everyone was stunned.

It was only then that Lin Jingfan realized that he still had a Browning and two bullets on his side. Given that there were no more weapons on the field, these two bullets could be said to refer to whoever hit whom.

What's happening here?

Lin Jingfan looked at Zhou Hao suspiciously, but found that his eyes were filled with a faint smile, and he looked at him dotingly as if the people around him no longer existed.

Those eyes were straightforward and affectionate, as if flirting with him.

Lin Jingfan's ears suddenly became hot, and he looked away unnaturally, his heart beating wildly and irregularly.

The atmosphere on the field was very strange, and even the boss looked confused.

However, Xie Chao finally found the desire to survive after running away from home at this time, and said humbly: "Fan, why are you so dazed, shoot me and brother Hao, and you will win."

Lin Jingfan only felt that it was too humiliating to win, but it was not easy to get angry, so he had to shoot in humiliation and won the round.
