Weird Apocalypse: Rebirth Starts with Trillions of Ghost Money

Hearing Chen Mu's question, the players present all frowned in thought.

They are not fools and can sense the contradiction in Boss Zhao's behavior.

Boss Zhao told them the methods while setting various traps for them.

In addition to what Chen Mu said, Boss Zhao only said half of what he said. There is another point that is also very obvious -

On the morning of the first day, when Boss Zhao asked them to work, he did not force them to feed the pigsty in the whole morning, but let them do whatever they wanted.

It was this sentence that made the players relax their efforts and fail to discover the pigskin ghost in time in the morning.

As for the lunch box, Boss Zhao said that after Zhupigui stole the food, he could clearly feel that the lunch box became lighter.

But Jiao Zhizhi's lunch box was filled with mud and pig skin.

If Chen Mu hadn't thought of it, and the players hadn't found the Pigskin Ghost, another player would probably have died today.

From this perspective, Boss Zhao may be helping the players, but it is unlikely that he is helping the players.

There is always a motive behind a person's behavior.

Although some NPCs behave strangely in strange quests, it is definitely not just for the sake of setting them up. There must be reasonable motives behind them.

Boss Zhao must be the same!

Based on his experience and reasoning, Chen Mu came to a conclusion.

"I think Boss Zhao is using us as tools." Chen Mu said word by word, "He is using us as cannon fodder to deal with the pigskin ghosts in the slaughterhouse."

After hearing Chen Mu's inference, Zheng Zetao followed Chen Mu's train of thought and analyzed:

"That makes sense. There are only two ways to deal with the pigskin ghost.

The first is to find it in the morning and kill it.

By the afternoon, the Pigskin Ghost had become stronger and humans could no longer deal with it. The only way to deal with it was the Pigskin Ghost's killing rule - it could only kill one person a day.

So the second method is to send someone as a sacrifice in the afternoon and deliberately let the pig skin ghost kill him. "

Tao Tieyi said: "Yes, this explains why Boss Zhao told us the 'rice testing' method.

It seems like he is helping us, but in fact he is asking us to work hard to find the pigskin ghost.

This is like using a group of cannon fodder. At least we need to give them tools to work, and the 'rice detection' method is the tool given to us."

Jiao Zhizhi couldn't help but ask: "But this doesn't explain why Boss Zhao wants to cheat us.

He only spoke half of the story, not telling us that the 'rice test' would be ineffective in the afternoon, and told us to 'get used to it and not finish it' on the first day, which indirectly killed Lin Xiao.

Since they were using us as cannon fodder, they should have let us make full use of our resources and finish the work in the morning. Why did they deliberately kill one of us?"

The problem of Jiao Zhizhi is also difficult for players to understand.

What was Boss Zhao's purpose in deliberately killing Lin Xiao?

Compared to killing Lin Xiao, it would be more in his interest to let Lin Xiao live and continue to find trouble for him every day.

This is also what Chen Mu thought about during the day.

After work, Chen Mu reviewed the situation and thought of a key point.

time!

Chen Mu said word by word: "The key to the problem is time!

When we arrived on the first day, it was already past eight in the morning. By the time we finished cleaning and started working, it was at least nine in the morning.

We only have three hours to work.

Don't forget, we started working at 7:30 this morning and it took us nearly four hours to check all the pig pens.

So from Boss Zhao's perspective, we, a few newbies, only have three hours and there is a high probability that we will not be able to feed all the pig pens.

What if there are only a few pig pens left and the pig skin ghost is in those pens? What should I do in the afternoon?

Could it be that he told us in advance that if we encountered the Pigskin Ghost in the afternoon, we would definitely die, and then sent us to those pig pens in the afternoon to use human lives to satisfy the Pigskin Ghost's killing quota for today?

We are not fools and we will definitely not do it, or use other excuses to conceal or evade.

If we don't die, at night, the pigskin ghost will theoretically be more powerful, and it is likely to kill people randomly, and Boss Zhao's life will also be in danger.

So the best way is to hide it from us and let us know the danger in the afternoon.

Ignorance is bliss. Yesterday afternoon, Boss Zhao could have sent us to the pigpen where the Pigskin Ghost might be, and used our lives to satisfy the Pigskin Ghost's killing spree.

Lin Xiao is the victim.

I think this is why Boss Zhao did this.”

After Chen Mu's analysis, Zheng Zetao and the others thought about it and it seemed to be true.

"But if that's the case, how do we explain the rice issue?" Jiao Zhizhi frowned and said:

"Today we proved our ability to work and we were able to check out the pigskin tricks this morning.

Boss Zhao should help us find it and kill it in the morning.

But why didn't Boss Zhao tell us that Zhupigui would replace rice with mud?

If it weren't for you, Brother Chen, I'm afraid one of us would have died today. What good will this do for Boss Zhao? "

Faced with Jiao Zhizhi's continuous rebuttals, Chen Mu sighed helplessly.

"Ms. Jiao, you have a rebuttal personality. No matter what suggestions I make, you always retort me." Chen Mu smiled helplessly, "I really can't answer your question.

In a strange mission, not all questions can be answered. It is normal to have some unsolved mysteries left. It is harmless.

It's getting late, so my suggestion is that starting from tomorrow, everyone should work hard in the morning to find the Pigskin Ghost and kill him.

In the afternoon, we can look for clues and see how to completely deal with the Pigskin Ghost.

I don't think anyone wants to stay in this damn place for thirty days.

Everyone should work hard to find clues. "

None of the players present objected to Chen Mu's arrangement.

"What about the warehouse? When can we go see it?" Jiao Zhizhi asked.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow night. Let's look for clues tomorrow and see if there is any breakthrough." Chen Mu said.

After the discussion, the players returned to their containers and prepared to turn off the lights and rest.

Chen Mu was the only one left in Chen Mu's room.

He looked at the light above his head, thinking about what had just happened.

Jiao Zhizhi asked a very good question, why didn’t Boss Zhao tell them that Zhupi was so cunning that he would replace rice with mud?

It is hard to think of a reasonable explanation for this problem based on Boss Zhao's behavior. It seems that he did something illogical specifically to set a trap for the players.

Fact... is it really so?

The figure of Jiao Zhizhi couldn't help but appear in Chen Mu's mind.

This little girl's behavior is a bit suspicious.

Every time Chen Mu made a suggestion, it was beneficial to clear the strange mission. But every time, Jiao Zhizhi would refute it and try to refute Chen Mu's suggestion.

She seemed to be refutating just for the sake of refutation, so much so that Chen Mu couldn't help but complain, wondering if this girl had a refutation-type personality.

By the way, the lunch box with rice mixed with dirt was also Jiao Zhizhi's.
