I thought I was just playing a game

Chapter 5 Beginner's Book·Classmates Association

The voice of DM sounded from the top of everyone's head.

["Doctor Pillow" found the deceased, the third session officially started, everyone is invited to gather in the lobby. 】

[From now on, until the murderer is found, you will not be able to leave the No. 4 courtyard of Dongjiao B&B Villa. 】

[It is reported that the deceased Yingde owed a large amount of loan sharks during his lifetime. Brother Hao, the leader of the loan sharks, was very angry and vowed that you should hand over the murderer within 48 hours, otherwise all of you will be burned to death in the villa. 】

Zhenliu listened carefully to every word in the system notification, and then thought of the main task I saw at the end of the character biography - to judge whether you are the murderer in this case, if so, please hide; if not, please assist the police Catch the culprit.

The police and Brother Hao are two different concepts.

The voice of 333 also appeared next to Zhenliu's ear, and the third session of the novice guide began: [The third session, to put it bluntly, is a simple self-introduction. After all, everyone has only read their own biographies before. The character played by the player is not yet familiar.All you need to do is give the basic information and the shortest timeline, you understand? 】

Zhenliu nodded, saying more and more mistakes, before all the information is clear, he will definitely not tell the whole story, if he later finds out that he is the murderer, then he will not be able to come back.

So far, the only question that Zhen Liu has asked is: "Does the murderer clearly know that he is the murderer?"

【unclear.The scripts in the Twilight Detective Museum are divided into two types. One is the scripts that are available in every script killing shop on the market. This kind of script is usually marked very clearly on the murderer's biography-"You are the murderer"; One is the original version of Twilight himself. The "Classmates Reunion" you are playing now is one of them. The murderer is not clear. 】

Zhenliu was thoughtful, and secretly guessed that the game did this to balance the faction mechanism. The murderer needs to reveal that he is the murderer before he can take the next step.

This is why the timeline jumps directly from after the banquet to the incident, without the need for players to interpret what happened that night. They can only learn about the most critical piece of information last night from the biography of the characters.In other words, if you want to restore the truth, you have to rely on sufficient information exchange between players.

Thinking about it this way, Zhenliu felt that his quest line was quite tricky. He not only wanted to decide whether he was the murderer, but also whether the person he had a crush on was the murderer.In the side mission of Zhenliu, one of them said this-if the person you have a crush on is a murderer, would you choose to protect him? (6 points for successful protection).But if he is a good person, then his main task is to solve the crime and catch the murderer, which directly conflicts with the side task of protecting the person he has a crush on.

Zhenliu suddenly had a bold guess, whether the tasks of other players would also have such contradictions, and they also have people they want to protect.

You hide it for him, and he hides it for the other one, so that the truth will become confusing.

In other words, whether you can win in the end depends entirely on personal choice.

Of course, this is just Zhenliu's immature inference at present. Whether it is true or not remains to be seen later.

***

The five players sat around the dining table in the hall, and each of them could use the light screen to record the information they learned from other populations at any time, and the light screen was only visible to them. Of course, the audience in the live broadcast room also As you can see, the only thing that can be guaranteed is that other players cannot cheat by peeking.

Before everyone sat down, Zhao Erdai proposed: "Shall we sit according to the position we had at dinner last night?"

Qiao Basketball has already opened the first position, and looked at Zhao Erdai strangely: "Why? You suspect that someone has already made a move at the banquet? The deceased died in the early morning. Do you know something?"

"Just a precaution."

Seats are a trivial matter. Since Zhao Erdai said so, everyone chose to copy the seats from last night without any other choice.There are only five people in total, and everyone's seats are easy to remember, and no one is wrong.It's just that I don't know if it's because of superfluous intentions. After Mr. Zhao's proposal, Lawyer Jin had a look at him, with a feeling of "you're a little meddlesome".

It's hard to say whether it's because Lawyer Jin is the murderer and he doesn't want to reveal too much information, so he thinks that Zhao Erdai is troublesome; or because Lawyer Jin is a good person, but because he competes with other players, he doesn't want Zhao Erdai to remind new players.

In short, on the left side of the long table are Zhao Erdai, Qiao Basketball, and Lawyer Jin, and on the right side are Professor Lu and Dr. Zhen.The deceased sat alone on the wide side of the long table last night, because he felt that there was the host seat, just like it is often performed in TV dramas.That is to say, the two closest to the deceased at the banquet were Zhao Erdai, Professor Lu, and Lawyer Jin the farthest.

It can be said that everyone's position is very delicate, and there are always some abnormal points that do not match their personalities.

Now it is 3V2 face to face.

Veteran player Zhao Erdai has just spoken, and now continues to act as the host temporarily: "Old rules, let's introduce ourselves first. Are there any novice players here?"

No one speaks, and novices will admit it to themselves unless they are stupid.

Before Zhenliu could finish thinking this way, Qiao Basketball raised his hand and confessed very cooperatively: "I played it once before."

"I know, we worked together in your last round. It doesn't matter, I will help you if you don't understand anything." Zhao Erdai seemed very helpful and a good teacher, "Let's introduce ourselves first. Let’s start with me, and then Professor Lu, Joe Basketball, Doctor Zhen and Lawyer Jin, can we intersect like this?”

Zhao Erdai's last sentence was obviously not asking for the opinions of everyone on the field. His eyes were always looking at Lawyer Jin at the end.

Zhenliu also draws an inference because of this. Zhao Erdai not only recognized Qiao Basketball, who had cooperated once, but also might know Lawyer Jin, and Lawyer Jin is an old player who is better than Zhao Erdai.

Although Lawyer Jin didn't say a word, he vaguely meant that he was in charge behind the scenes.

In other words, the three people on the opposite side of Zhenliu were born with a passion for each other, and they first formed a small group that was not stable.A true novice like Zhenliu seems a bit orphaned.

Lawyer Jin is also worthy of being an old player who has played a lot, and he is not as unprofessional as Xiao Zhao, who is temporarily separated from the role.He raised his hand and glanced at the golden watch in his hand, and urged: "No matter who you are, let's start quickly. I have an important client to meet on Monday, and I don't want to be delayed by this kind of thing."

Compared with the deceased, Lawyer Jin cared more about his career, and he could even feel it. Compared with the tension of socializing last night, after the death of the deceased today, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Qiao Basketball also echoed: "Yes, yes, which one of you is the murderer, just admit it, and don't let everyone be burned to death by Brother Hao."

I don't know if it's Joe Basketball's character design, or the character of the player who plays him. In short, it's quite... amazing to be able to say this.

The hard-working Xiao Zhao began to lead the team bitterly.

It is not known what Zhao Erdai looks like in the game setting, anyway, in their game, he looks like Xiao Zhao.The slightly drooping eyebrows lowered his supposedly good-looking facial features, and his overall demeanor showed a feeling of unconfident and honest, which is quite different from the arrogant and domineering rich second generation set in the script. gap.

It's okay for Xiao Zhao to act with all his strength, but when he breaks away from the role like he is now, his lack of independent character is fully exposed.

It's not that he is completely at the mercy of others, but that he is a character that can be easily swayed by others.

Zhao Erdai made a sample for everyone, and made a very standard self-introduction: "My name is Zhao Erdai, 35 years old, I am a rich second generation, and my career is old. My father is Boss Zhao, a well-known wealthy businessman in our city. This The villa is also a homestay owned by my company. I lent my project to hold this class reunion for everyone.

"My timeline last night was very simple. I had dinner here with everyone first. After the banquet, I went back to my room to play games. I played until very late before falling asleep, and then it seemed that I was woken up not long after.

"I have nothing to do with the deceased Yingde, I'm just a middle school classmate, gone."

Xiao Zhao's introduction... is almost equivalent to saying nothing. It is the kind of words that sound full of words but actually have no information. It can be said to be very technical.

This "honest man" doesn't look as honest as he appears.

Professor Lu, who has an outstanding appearance, sat across from Xiao Zhao with his eyes blank. When Zhao Erdai introduced him, Professor Lu did not bow his head to take notes at all. He was still immersed in his role. In short, Professor Lu's eyes didn't seem to be on the case. He spent more time looking at the bananas hanging in the kitchen than any of the suspects present.

Yes, in the semi-open kitchen, there is now a bunch of bananas hanging for some unknown reason. They are golden yellow, curved, and have a smooth appearance. In short, they are a bunch of bananas that look very good.

When it was Professor Lu's turn to introduce, the most concise version was born.

"Professor Lu, 35 years old, a university professor, and everyone present are middle school classmates, but they are not familiar with each other.

"Eat from 9 o'clock to 11 o'clock, go back to the room to take a shower at 11 o'clock, come out once for something later, and then sleep until I am woken up.

"I hate the dead."

Qiao Basketball was outspoken. His real age should not be too old, so he asked in surprise, "That's it?"

That's it.

Professor Lu didn't even bother to talk to the other party.

To be honest, this kind of person who refuses to communicate is a bit like hanging up, which is not a good game performance.But Zhenliu discovered a different point. Professor Lu clearly explained his time information, what time to do, and when to end, at least much clearer than the seemingly sincere Zhao Erdai.

Zhao Erdai's timeline is blurred throughout, as if he was preparing for fabricating the timeline in the future. For example, he said that he played very late, 2 o'clock was very late, and 4 o'clock was also very late.

It's a game of liars and no one tells the truth in the first place.

Uh, except, Joe basketball.

Joe Basketball has a childish look on his face, and he can't support his tallest and strongest appearance in the game. He has a lollipop that he doesn't know where he conjured up in his mouth. From the moment he spoke, he was full of emotions and chattering.

"My name is Joe Basketball. I am 34 years old. I used to be a basketball player. I played for the provincial team and was almost called up to the national team. But then some accidents happened, which caused a huge deviation in my whole life. In fact, it is not Let’s count it as a deviation. My family background was not very good in the past. I only wanted to fight for my mother to live a good life. I have an older brother, but it is said that he got lost when he was a child, and then my mother’s spirit is not counted. Okay, I want her to lighten her burden, but I’m not good at studying. The only thing I can do is my athletic nerves. As a sports student, I went to a good school and became classmates with everyone. I didn't take a good career path, and I still failed in the end. I didn't get ahead, but instead caused my mother to travel around in her later years..."

Qiao Basketball and Professor Lu formed a very sharp contrast. He talked a lot, and it was no longer like introducing himself, but reciting a personal biography.

It's just that these words currently sound like useless invalid information.

However, Joe Basketball still doesn’t have that self-awareness. The more he speaks, the more he gets better. He seems to have really brought his emotions into it: “Oh, really, this role is quite similar to some of my past experiences. The psychological The test is really accurate, and I always want to satisfy my mother, and work hard for her..."

Zhao Erdai had no choice but to interrupt the children who were about to fall into personal memories: "It doesn't need to be so detailed."

What Xiao Zhao said is already very tactful, but if someone is a little more tempered, he will directly say "We are not interested in your past, how about talking about the contents of the book?".

"Oh, ok, ok, let's talk about the timeline." Although Joe Basketball is good at speaking, he can also listen to persuasion. Most of his irritability comes from the contempt of others. When you communicate with him normally At that time, he was actually pretty easy to communicate with, at least he wasn't so self-righteous, "I was probably, uh, wait a minute last night, let me take a look."

Joe Basketball seemed to have gone through the biography of the characters, and after a while, he started again.

"I was late last night because of the traffic jam on the road, and I didn't bring an umbrella, so I could only run wildly with milk tea in the wind and heavy rain. Fortunately, I met Zhao Erdai on the road, so we got in the car and went to the villa together. We arrived The time is about 8:30 or so.

"When I arrived, there were only Yingde and Lawyer Jin in the villa, and then Yingde said that Dr. Shen..."

"Doctor Pillow." Lawyer Jin rarely spoke, interrupted Joe's basketball, and made a very unnecessary correction.

Zhenliu's name is often called by mistake, and he is used to it. He himself has not expressed any objection to this, but Lawyer Jin complained first.

"Ah, your surname is Zhen. It's so strange. Is there such a surname?" Qiao Basketball is currently the person who shows the most personality traits. He is impulsive, talkative, young and undetermined. Tabs that are not easy to focus on.He obviously forgot to continue explaining the timeline, and devoted himself to studying Zhenliu's unique surname.

Zhao Erdai had to become a nanny again: "Let's talk about the timeline first? Other things can be discussed later."

Joe basketball just continued. He scratched his head and tried to recall, but the memory didn't look very good: "Where did I just say? By the way, by the way, Yingde said that Zhao Erdai and I were the last to arrive. , you are all upstairs, and then we started to prepare. Lawyer Jin also went upstairs. Around 9:[-], you went downstairs, and the banquet began.

"At the banquet, I remember that everyone seemed to have had contact with the deceased. In fact, the seats are meaningless at all. Either we actively interacted with the deceased, or the deceased leaned over.

"The banquet ended at 11 o'clock. Doctor Zhen went upstairs first, and Professor Lu chased after me. I was left by the deceased to pack the tableware. Lawyer Jin accompanied me. I don't remember where the second generation went.

"I finished packing at about 11 and then I saw the deceased go upstairs but his bedroom was on the ground floor and I don't know what he was doing upstairs.

"My room is also on the first floor, and I have been waiting for the deceased to come back, because he asked me to wait for him, but I finally waited until around 12:30, and I waited for him. I was super sleepy at the time, so I just chatted about something Then it broke up.

"After that, I went back to the house and slept until I found the doctor and the dead in the morning. I screamed and it was gone."

It can be said that it is a very trivial but very detailed timeline. Joe Basketball even took the initiative to confess that he met the deceased alone after the banquet. He was probably the last person the deceased saw before his death.

However, how to put it, Zhenliu can also guess that according to the situation last night, everyone must have met the deceased alone, and so did he, so that everyone will be given a chance to do it.How the deceased died is still unclear.Judging from the first impression of the scene, the deceased was lying in a pool of blood and was stabbed in the body.But whether it was fatal or not, no one can say for sure.

After Joe played basketball, it was Zhenliu's self-introduction.

Just like Zhenliu looked at and analyzed others before, now when it's his turn, everyone evaluates him in their hearts.

"Doctor Pillow, 34 years old, surgeon. At present, I should be regarded as the first witness of the murder scene. Generally speaking, at this time, I should call the police and become the reporter.

"I'm used to getting up early, and I remembered that I had something to look for the deceased, so I went downstairs and knocked on the door of the deceased, but he didn't respond to me, and then I found that the door was ajar, so I subconsciously pushed the door and walked in. I saw the deceased , and it didn’t take long to wait for Joe Basketball and Professor Lu.”

Professor Lu, who had been wandering too far, suddenly responded. He nodded: "I actually went downstairs with Dr. Zhenzhen. We both live on the third floor. When we reach the first floor, I will go to the kitchen to cook. I was just about to take down the bananas I hung up yesterday, and the milk in the microwave was not hot yet, when I heard screams, I rushed over."

What he meant was that Zhenliu, as the first witness, had little possibility of committing the crime on the spot.Because Professor Lu's words can be confirmed from the microwave oven usage records in the kitchen.

Smart home, forever god.

"What are you hanging bananas for?" Qiao Basketball asked for everyone, his eyes were full of curiosity.Zhenliu believes that when he asked this, he either doubted Professor Lu, or simply wanted to know why.

Professor Lu answered Qiao Basketball this time: "In this way, the bananas will think that they are not yet ripe, and after picking them, they can eat the freshest ones at any time."

Joe Basketball was dumbfounded: "???" Are you serious?

Zhenliu was thinking about why Professor Lu suddenly helped him at this time. Generally speaking, the first witness is the most suspicious focus position, and it is a card that the murderer must want to resist.

[Because of love! 】

【This really is a love book! 】

[Is this the player who said before that he wants to choose the person he loves? 】

[Forget about the person you have a crush on, Xiaoliu, look at Professor Lu by your side!When others talk, he doesn't reply at all. When you talk, he will testify to you every minute.And judging from the current situation, the two of you have to stick together, and the other three are obviously from the same country.If you are not united, you will definitely lose.If a good person is voted out, points will be deducted. 】

[Banana milk can be said to be very healthy. 】

Zhenliu still can't see the barrage at present, he habitually draws a circle on Professor Lu's name, thinking while drawing, but coincidentally, he just wrote on the light screen at this time: "He helped Me, to hide myself."

Barrage:【? ? ? ] Something is wrong with you, friend.
