Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

After clearing the snow from the door, Lin Yu pushed open the heavy metal door covered with wood and entered the cabin.

The furnishings in the room were obviously different from all the previous "strongholds".

Workbench-style tables and chairs, a spacious single bed with a quilt, a single wardrobe, a wall-mounted bookcase...

There is even a special wine cabinet and a stove with pots and pans, and many iron cans on the stove.

Although most of the furniture was covered in dust, it could be seen that...

There were actually people living here.

Unlike those "temporary bases", they are not for people to live in at all!

Every decent house has a stove.

And through observing this room, Lin Yu could roughly draw a conclusion.

"The person living here is probably a serious and self-disciplined intellectual."

he muttered.

After all, the beds were neatly made and the tables and chairs were neatly arranged, almost like someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Even the books on the bookshelf and the wine in the wine cabinet are arranged in order of height.

At the same time, although no one has used them for a long time, the metal handles on the wine cabinet door are newer, while the metal door handles on the bookcase have been polished to a smooth and bright color.

From this, it is not difficult to conclude that drinking is just an occasional drink for him, but reading should be done every night.

and……

When you get closer to the bookshelf, you will find that the spines of the books are written with some English book titles.

The "Death Game" is ultimately inseparable from reality...

At least the language is common.

It’s just that the English titles are a bit difficult to read.

The literal translation is probably...

"The Principle of Happy Mechanics", "Extremely Good Angry Gears", "Crazy Wrench", "Stupid Tire"...

When I opened the bookcase and took out the books, I saw large areas of black marks when I flipped through them.

Any areas that appeared to have had some kind of "illustration" were completely blacked out.

Lin Yu could only roughly judge from the remaining fragments and the book layout...

These all seem to be some kind of academic works.

All these books point to a "subject" that Lin Yu cannot understand for the time being.

This made Lin Yu fall into thought again.

"So, this is what the owner of this room reads every night?"

"And...the black stripes are so neat and straight, it's very likely that the owner of these books deliberately painted them black."

"Then why did he do this...is this a disguised way of destroying these books?"

Lin Yu let out a breath.

But there are better ways to destroy a book—like setting it on fire.

Lin Yu stroked the smooth footers of the books and thought.

These books must have been read from time to time, but there are still no missing pages or curled edges.

This explains...

The owner of this book not only loves cleanliness, but is also likely to love books very much and is a natural book lover.

The image of a young male scholar living alone in the snow began to take shape in Lin Yu's mind.

As for why it was a young man...

Because the clothes displayed in the wardrobe in this room are all men's coats, the colors are relatively plain - but the styles are all slim-fitting, and the pants are also relatively stiff in style, which is more suitable for young people.

Then, Lin Yu stuffed all the books back into the cabinet.

Then he looked at the workbench.

On the wooden workbench, there was a lot of residual pencil dust around the edges of the table.

Although the owner of this place has wiped it carefully, the pencil dust stuck in the cracks of the table and seeping into the tiny texture gaps is not so easy to clean.

Lin Yu was able to tell this by the fact that there was only pencil dust around it.

"Perhaps this table was once used for drawing?"

If you're just writing, pencils aren't used very often... they're also hard to find around the desk.

Lin Yu knocked lightly on the table, wanting to see if there was any secret compartment hidden under this obviously heavy table.

And just then...

"Boom!"

The door was pushed open.

At the door, a young man with handsome features and wearing a red woolen hat appeared.

He looked at Lin Yu in the room, a little surprised, and then reacted.

"Oh—you're the 'doctor' I met earlier, May!"

The person who came was none other than the "Detective" Forporro.

He looked at Lin Yu, rubbed his hands, and looked very excited.

"I didn't expect to see you here... It seems you're quite perceptive, May!"

Forboluo sighed, "You came here because you discovered something strange about this place, right..."

Lin Yu looked at Forboluo and quickly switched to the same personality he had used when facing the "detective" last night.

A more serious and responsible night shift doctor.

He coughed twice and said, "It happens to be mostly by chance..."

Lin Yu continued to ask.

"Speaking of which, how did you find out there was a problem here?"

"Of course, because I followed your lead and wandered around today, and I discovered... that these strongholds are incredibly 'regular,'" Forboluo said, waving his hand. "Although they appear to be scattered haphazardly, they're actually quite regularly distributed—at least in the three places I visited, every abandoned stronghold had exactly seven other strongholds!"

"If you look down from above, you'll see... all the strongholds are arranged in a perfect circle!"

"And according to my deduction... this current stronghold is the center of the circle!"

Lin Yu looked at Forboluo in surprise.

He was somewhat amazed at Forbolo's "spatial thinking" ability.

Lin Yu took out the map.

"You're still quite capable, Detective."

"I got the map from an NPC, so I was able to spot the clues and make this judgment."

Lin Yu said this, took out the map and showed it to Forboluo.

The detective took a quick glance and calmly waved his hand.

"Sprinkle some water, basic drill—but as a 'doctor', you're pretty good at figuring out the clues by looking at the map!"

Lin Yu nodded: "But with the help of the map, I can discover more than you - have you noticed that all the strongholds on this map not only happen to fall within a full circle, but this full circle can also be divided into twelve equal sectors of thirty degrees?"

Lin Yu said this sincerely. Forboluo took a look and then nodded in surprise.

"Really? That's an interesting discovery!"

Lin Yu exhaled, then said: "Although I am a 'doctor', but... I am no worse than you, a 'detective'."

"Rather, a 'doctor' and a 'detective' are a perfect pair, aren't they?"

Hearing this, Forboluo laughed. "You're right. A 'Doctor' can heal others, so he should be the 'best partner' with everyone."

Lin Yu smiled when he heard his answer.

"I see……"

Lin Yu suddenly took out the [One-sentence Lie Detector] and said, "I have a prop here that functions as a lie detector."

After saying that, Lin Yu threw the lie detector to Forbolo.

"Clap!"

The polygraph hit Forbolo and then fell to the ground.

Forboluo subconsciously dodged, then looked at the polygraph on the ground, looking up in surprise.

"Huh? What are you doing?"

"See if you have a physical body."

As Lin Yu spoke, he already had another prop in his hand.

The moment Forbolo lowered his head, Lin Yu had already taken the [Guaranteed Hit Revolver] in his hand and pointed the gun at "Forbolo".

"How could someone named 'Furboro' not understand the story behind the doctor and the detective..."

"But I'm still glad you're real, fake."

"Or……"

"'Chat'."
