Between life and death [unlimited]

In the early hours of this morning, after Si Yufeng, who is equivalent to a "military adviser" among the players, told everyone the shortcut that could quickly clear the level, he was immediately rejected by Shen Yingying and Zhang Jian on the spot. Shen Yu did not express his opinion. It also means supporting his sister.

Jiang Lai, who has always been used to being taciturn, did not express any opinions.

From Jiang Lu's point of view, this task is the most suitable for him since he entered the living space (if he can think of this shortcut himself) - just use a very simple and handsome hand up and down, no matter what It doesn't make any difference to him whether he kills one or two, or a dozen or hundreds of them.

But since the last time he experienced the incident of killing "Si Yufeng" with his hands, Jiang Xun's heart, which had been frozen for a long time, suddenly had a complicated feeling towards everyone, and it was this unknown feeling that made him somewhat unable to act like before. In that way, the three familiar people were attacked.

Just thinking about that scene, Jiang Lu would have the illusion of being heartbroken out of thin air.

—Has he started to become soft-hearted?

Jiang Xun couldn't help questioning himself in his heart.You must know that "kindness and softness" is not a compliment for ordinary people, but it is a derogatory term for a supposedly ruthless killer like Jiang Shuang.

Now he still doesn't know how to call these people who have entered his heart unknowingly as "friends"; he also doesn't know that this complex feeling in his heart is actually called "cherishing".

When the surviving people in this three-storey villa originally symbolized "Hope for Tomorrow" slowly woke up from their sleep, they found that the sunlight outside the glass was coming in directly from the large floor-to-ceiling windows like golden threads.It looks like that illusory symbolism is generally dazzling.

After experiencing the death of Shu Hua, a draft member, last night, everyone—whether players or NPCs—understands that their current situation is not very good, and it can even be said that they are struggling and walking on thin ice.As long as their heads are not short-circuited, they can analyze the law of "one person will die every day" in this villa.

It's just a more specific law that everyone hasn't discovered yet.For example, although the murderer killed according to the character of each person representing "original sin", will this character have a priority?

If so, what would be the order of precedence?Why did Susan, who represents "selfishness", die in front of Shu Hua, who represents "greed", and who might be the next person who will die tonight?

Even Si Yufeng has not found the answers to these questions until now.

So when eating breakfast this day, everyone with more or less disconcerted expressions on their faces obviously didn't have much appetite when faced with a table of delicious food.

Even Shen Yingying, who wished to eat a cow two days ago and was in the stage of having a strong appetite, only ate a little symbolically when faced with the delicious dishes in front of her.

Holding a silver dinner fork in her hand, she tapped the croissants on the dinner plate one after another, and suddenly sighed: "Oh... If it's like the one in the movie "Seven Deadly Sins", The content is just fine..."

"...At least, it can give us a reference."

Her voice was almost a whisper, so only Zhang Jian, who was sitting next to Shen Yingying, could hear her clearly.However, Zhang Jian, who usually doesn't like to watch crime dramas, has never heard of this term, so he asked again: ""Seven Deadly Sins"? Are you talking about a movie? Little..."

He just wanted to say "little girl", but suddenly realized that other NPCs were also present, so he had no choice but to change his words abruptly to "Little... Shen PD, what did "Seven Deadly Sins" talk about?"

"Xiao Shen PD" gave Zhang Jian another look, as if she was despising him for not even watching the classic David Fincher movie, but she still introduced it to him honestly.

Afraid that the NPC sitting across from her would hear it, Shen Yingying just whispered to him: "...it's about a policeman who is about to retire. In the last case of his career, he found out that the victim was forced to eat a lot of food to sustain his life. The stomach died, and the murderer wrote 'gluttony' on the wall with blood, and 'greed' on the floor. These two concepts reminded the policeman of the seven differences representing Christianity in "Paradise Lost". sin..."

"But I can't remember exactly what the crime is." Shen Yingying sighed again, and said, "However, all we encountered were sudden deaths, and the murderer never left us alone. clue……"

Zhang Jian didn't pay attention to Shen Yingying's emotion. Anyway, he is not a "brain tank" in the team, and he can't help with these things even if he wants to.However, through Shen Yingying's introduction just now, he suddenly thought of her corresponding crime, so Zhang Jian suddenly exclaimed: "Little...Shen PD! You you you...I know what your crime is!"

In fact, Shen Yingying was not interested in this answer at all, but after hearing the question, she reflexively asked Zhang Jian: "What?"

"Gluttony!" Zhang Jian feels that his mind is more flexible than ever before. Shen Yingying's performance these days is that she can eat, and she eats a lot in one meal!

"You won't be strangled to death in the end..." Zhang Jian thought with some worry, that kind of death is too painful...

However, Shen Yingying didn't react much after listening to it, she just continued to use the fork in her hand to blankly divide the poor croissant on the plate that was devastated.

Zhang Jian thought that Shen Yingying was frightened by himself, so he asked her: "...What's the matter? Are you convinced by my intelligence?"

Hearing that Zhang Jian was so narcissistic, Shen Yingying couldn't help giving him a big roll of the eyes, "Senior... Please don't feel so good about yourself, okay... Besides, I still tell you the content of "Seven Deadly Sins" What about yours, so I already knew..."

"And if you think about it carefully, that feature of Susan doesn't seem to be in that movie... The seven deadly sins should not include the 'selfish' one. It seems that it is only somewhat similar to "The Seven Deadly Sins", not completely Same……"

Because Shen Yingying didn't know what was wrong with Shen Yu recently, so Shen Yingying had been sitting on the left hand side of Zhang Jian and Si Yufeng's right hand side for the past two days, just sandwiched between the two; On the right side of the sword, there is a distance of one person from his sister.

So Si Yufeng also heard some chatter between Zhang Jian and Shen Yingying just now.He also had the same opinion about Shen Yingying.

When he first deduced that Susan corresponds to "selfishness" and Shu Hua corresponds to "greed", he immediately thought of this classic crime movie.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the mission content this time is very different from the movie.

For example, the real cause of death of Susan and Shu Hua is not the same as the death method that must represent this sin in the movie, and the murderer did not leave them any clues about the next person, and it should not be like Kevin Spacey. Finally came out to provoke the police.

Therefore, even if Bo Wen had a strong memory like Si Yufeng, in this situation of restricted activities, he couldn't find clues about the murderer's possible clues in the way the two died like the old policeman in the movie.

——In the movie, the protagonist found the murderer based on the borrowing records of "Paradise Lost".

But the players still have to train during the day, so they can't carefully investigate the similarities between Susan and Shu Hua.Moreover, Si Yufeng has an intuition that the key to this mission should not be on it.

Because the murderer looked like he was killing people indiscriminately, as if he was killing people just for the sake of killing people, without any specific purpose.How can it be like in movies or novels to pursue a sense of ritual, and then kill people according to a certain law.

In this case, at least there are still some clues to follow.It's not like they are now - they dare not take the "shortcut", so they have to bite the bullet and continue to live under the shadow of this "invisible murderer".

Speaking of which, this murderer is really good at hiding.The players had been discussing the mission in Shen Yingying's house last night, and even the professional killer Jiang Xun didn't hear the sound of the real murderer killing Shu Hua, even after rushing to the stairs in an instant, he couldn't Catch the figure of the murderer running away.

Could it be that the murderer's force value is higher than that of Jiang Xun?

If the place of murder was in this villa and on the second floor, according to common sense, when that person hit Shu Hua's head with a heavy object, Bai Xue, who lives in the same room as Shu Hua, would definitely hear something strange. , but after Si Yufeng asked Bai Xue, she found that she, like everyone else, only heard the muffled sound of the corpse rolling down.

Si Yufeng was puzzled by these places, so he decided to use his spare time today to investigate the places where Susan and Shu Hua died.

Today is the fourth day for the players to enter the game world, and the content is very simple. In addition to the daily training, everyone needs to shoot a "dinner VLOG" at night, which will probably become a more interesting part.

After the game yesterday afternoon, the remaining draft members also had a rough ranking.

Let’s not talk about the rankings of the rest of the team, just look at Si Yufeng and Jiang Yu as teammates. They obviously danced a dance in the competition, but the final ranking is like "a difference between clouds and mud" - Si Yufeng is The number one among all people is also due to his high EQ and IQ; and Jiang Lai's ranking honorably became the last after the death of Shu Hua, who was originally at the bottom.Comparing the two compartments, it is quite interesting to complement each other.

Jiang Xun himself is not the kind of character who cares about things outside his body, not to mention that this is just a "false" ranking in the mission.However, at the bottom of his heart, he also has some obsession with the "only debut" in this mission.

Of course, this obsession must have come from Jiang Ke.

If Jiang Xun could get the only chance to make his debut, it would be equivalent to getting the "key" to enter the Divine Blessed Knights. As a knight, he should continue to work under Jiang Ke's men, right?Just like before.

But if he wants to join the Knights, it should mean that he has to part with these temporary teammates now, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xun, who was sitting on the farthest side, couldn't help but glanced at the other four people with different expressions on their faces, but unexpectedly had a harmonious atmosphere with each other——Zhang Jian, as always, "harassed" calmly Yingying, the two of them knew they were arguing at a glance; while Shen Yingying's elder brother, Shen Yu, just smiled and watched the two of them arguing; and Si Yufeng, there was still nothing left on his dinner plate. That fried sausage.

When he saw Jiang Lai glanced over, Si Yufeng asked him with concern as he did yesterday: "Jiang Lai, why are you finishing your meal so quickly? Is it not enough? I still have a little here, do you want?"

Jiang Lai noticed that his teammate had that cunning expression like a little fox on his face again, and suddenly felt uncomfortable, but he still nodded and replied: "Okay."

He was suddenly thankful that he had remained expressionless the entire time.If he was like a normal person, he thought that the expression on his face just now would be very unnatural.

Looking at everyone who has cultivated some tacit understanding without knowing it, Jiang Xun thought: If he left like this and directly joined Jiang Ke's banner, they would definitely feel as sad as himself.

This day's time passed quickly during the training, and when it was almost dinner time, Shen Yingying came over and announced the content of the next game to everyone.

The next competition of the draft members will be on the sixth day. This quiz does not have any specific requirements for the content like the last time - it may be that the program team feels that the prescribed topics are too restrictive for the players, so they don't There is no mandatory requirement, just let everyone show what they are best at.

After listening to Shen Yingying's speech, and watching everyone pondering over their specialties, Jiang Lai immediately felt that the issues he was thinking about in the morning were completely imaginary—he is not good at any singing and dancing shows, so he has no hope of making a debut at all. !

As I said before, apart from training today, the contestants have another task to complete, which is to record an interesting "beautiful girl dinner" VLOG.I don't know which little clever ghost came up with this idea. Two of the contestants have already died here, and they still have to force their smiles and pretend to be laughing.

Tonight, the program team did not prepare any cooked food for the contestants, but prepared a lot of raw materials for them, so this time the dinner party needs the contestants to play "at will", anyway, as long as they don't kill people .

Cinderella looked at the vegetables and meat placed in the kitchen, and declared first: "Let me tell you first, I don't know how to cook. If you ask me to cook, everyone will only see the scene of 'burning the kitchen'. "

"However, if you want to experience an action movie scene, I don't mind."

Everyone: "..."

As a program planner, Shen Yingying was also in charge of recording with a DV. After hearing Cinderella's "terrorist" declaration, she directly pointed the camera in her hand at Si Yufeng, who seemed to her to be omnipotent, " Si...cough, Yufeng, you should know how to cook, right?"

Si Yufeng raised his signature smile at the corner of his mouth, nodded at the camera and said: "I do know a little bit, then I'll be in charge of cooking tonight, and I'll do the hard work for everyone to wash the vegetables and help me do some work. "

Shen Yingying couldn't help but sighed in her heart—Father Si was indeed an angel sent by God to save mankind from "water and fire"!

Zhang Jian, on the other hand, knew that he would not be able to help much after entering the kitchen, but would easily cause trouble for everyone, so he withdrew from the team with special self-knowledge, and cheered Si Yufeng by the way: "Xiao Feng, I will not I’m going, I’m afraid of causing trouble to you. But my spirit will always be with you, I’m optimistic about you!”

Jiang Lai, who doesn't like to join in the fun, planned to rest on the sofa like Zhang Jian, but he was finally "caught" by his teammates and forced into the kitchen.

"Jiang Xun, don't be as lazy as your predecessors!" Si Yufeng, who seemed to know the big secret, smiled at his teammates: "I remember that you are especially good at chopping vegetables~"

Jiang Xun, who had indeed shown off his knife skills unintentionally: "..."

——All right, anyway, cutting melons and vegetables is not much different from killing people and killing people.

So Jiang Xun was forced to wear a pink apron with exaggerated lace again. Under Shen Yingying's shaky but life-like camera record, the cold goddess who always had an iceberg expression seemed to have no It usually looks like no one should enter.

"Slice or shred?" After putting the washed vegetables on the chopping board, Jiang Lai asked his teammates.

Si Yufeng said: "Cut it into shreds. The thinner the better, it will taste better."

Under the watchful eyes of those NPCs who were still skeptical about "beauty chopping vegetables", Jiang Shang quietly pulled out a chef's knife that looked like a dagger from the knife case in front of him.

Then, he didn't even need to look at his eyes, as if his subordinates had spiritual consciousness. Everyone saw a burst of cold knife light jumping up, and regular "swish, swish, swish" sounds came from the chopping board. The vegetables have been neatly chopped into vegetable shreds with a thickness of only a few millimeters.

This is because Jiang Li deliberately slowed down his speed, fearing to startle those NPCs.Otherwise, if he really used all his strength, not to mention the simple action of cutting vegetable shreds, even if he was blindfolded cutting something on a balloon, no matter what shape it was, Jiang Shuang could complete it in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Xun has reached such a superb level with daggers and even knives, and it also benefits from his 20 years of continuous training of his basic skills.

After Shen Yingying uploaded this video to the Internet platform, and after it was broadcast the next day, netizens expressed that they were shocked by the "beauty cut dun" —— still such a perfect cut dun, so everyone left messages one after another.

"From this point of view, it looks like Lian Jiazi. It doesn't take decades of kung fu!"

"The program team is also really good, where do you find 'strange people and strange people'?"

"Not only is he beautiful, but his skills are not weak~"

"I guess Amaranthus must be an excellent graduate of New Western!"

Unexpectedly, this video turned out to be a beautiful "turnaround" for Jiang Lai - his audience's popularity surpassed the original No.1 Bai Xue in an instant, and he successfully left her far behind.

Perhaps the sky really observes our every move, and the achievements obtained by "stepping on" others will eventually return to the framed person.

Speaking of which, after the dinner party that night, Hua Jing's mother suggested that everyone could stay together at night.The purpose of doing this is firstly to ensure everyone's safety, and secondly, it is also convenient for everyone to investigate the murderer and see if the real murderer is hidden among everyone.

Everyone naturally agreed to this proposal.Although it may be a little inconvenient, life is the most important thing.

After all, before saving one's life, everything is nothing but floating clouds.

Because there was still some time before going to sleep, Si Yufeng dragged the players to search the place of death of Susan and Shu Hua again.

Susan was found dead in the house, and Shen Yingying didn't hear any abnormal noise that night, so the place of her death should be in her and Huajing's room.

According to Hua Jing, there was nothing unusual about Susan the night before her death. If there is anything special, it should be that she was a little tired from training that day and she rested earlier than the night before.

But Jiang Xun remembered that the lips of Susan's corpse were obviously black and purple, so the cause of her death was probably poisoning.

When they asked Huajing whether Susan had taken any medicine before going to bed the night before, Huajing suddenly remembered a detail that was easily overlooked.

"I don't know if she took any medicine that night... But I did see Susan drink a glass of water before going to bed. I thought that as a singer, she drank water before going to bed to moisten her throat."

"Where is that cup now?" Si Yufeng suddenly had a glimmer of hope in his eyes, so he hurriedly asked her.

But Huajing shook her head and said, "I understand what you mean. But after Susan finished using the cup, she brushed it. I remember she went to the bathroom to wash the cup."

Finally, Susan's cause of death had a starting point, but the clues were cut off again.

Si Yufeng was not discouraged either, he was still very strong in his heart.However, he immediately turned his attention to Shu Hua, who had just passed away today.

Because Shu Hua rolled down the stairs at that time, so if nothing else happened, she should have been attacked on the second floor.

But because the players don't have any available criminal investigation tools at hand, they can't find the real scene of the crime, so everyone had to first look for the heavy objects that the murderer might use to attack Shu Hua.

According to the judgment of the professional killer Jiang Shui, Shu Hua's head wound should be caused by hitting it vigorously with an oval or round object with a certain weight like a shot put.

"It might be something like a hammer." Jiang Lai said to the other four people: "Because her skull is comminuted, it must be very heavy."

After everyone searched the entire second floor inside and out, they found nothing again.

The program team may also be concerned about the fear of accidents in the middle, not only on the second floor, but also in the entire villa, there seems to be no such thing as a hammer or hammer, and everyone has not found any other objects with a round shape like Jiang Lai said. shaped heavy objects.

In fact, Si Yufeng had already expected this result - after all, only two NPCs died just now, and according to the bad taste of the system, they were still too early to break the game.

But before going to bed that night, Si Yufeng always felt that Jiang Lie seemed to have something on his mind today - I don't know how he could tell from the expressionless face of his teammates.Anyway, the moonlight outside was just right, so he was soft and fearful, and a little bit forcefully took his teammates to relax on the beach outside.

"Jiang Xun... How are you feeling recently?" Si Yufeng politely started with a rather clichéd beginning.

The two walked on the private beach outside, and they could feel the fine texture of white sand through the thick soles, and some sand would pour into their shoes from time to time, so they finally put beach chairs together where it stopped.

"What's wrong?" Unexpectedly, Jiang Xun also felt that Si Yufeng was a little strange tonight, so he immediately asked back.

In fact, Si Yufeng didn't know what was wrong with him. He found that since he entered this mission, he couldn't help but want to get Jiang's attention—including wanting to feed Jiang's breakfast every morning, and Every night, he couldn't help but sleep next to Jiang Shuang—in short, it was as if the rational bowstring in his mind was about to break.

He simply "broken the can and smashed it", and asked straightforwardly like his teammates: "Is there anything that bothers you recently?"

However, Si Yufeng still picked up something casually, like a newspaper on the table next to him, and kept kneading it in his hands, hoping to divert his current attention—this is a very typical human being when he is nervous. Subconscious manifestations that will be made.

Jiang Xun was stunned by Si Yufeng's sudden and direct question, and couldn't answer for a long time.

——He does have something to worry about now, and it's about Si Yufeng, Zhang Jian, Shen Yingying and the others.

But in his mind, he somehow felt that it was better not to let Si Yufeng know that he wanted to join the Divine Blessed Knights.

Just when Si Yufeng was about to crumple the newspaper in his hand into a ball of waste paper, Jiang Lai suddenly said to him: "It's nothing." And a sentence that sounded perfunctory, "I just feel that this mission is a bit difficult."

Hearing Jiang Lai's answer that he refused to talk to him, Si Yufeng nodded in frustration, and said, "Oh...that's fine."

Looking at the brightly lit scene behind him, Jiang Lai noticed that everyone had already started moving their own bedding to the living room on the first floor. Seeing that Si Yufeng had nothing else to do, he asked him, "Go back now?"

"Okay." Although Si Yufeng still had some regrets in his heart, it was obvious that Jiang Xun was unwilling to say anything more to him now.

But just as Si Yufeng put the newspaper back, Jiang Lai's keen vision suddenly caught something unusual in the newspaper.

He suddenly snatched the newspaper from Si Yufeng's hand, and when Si Yufeng asked him "what happened" in doubt, Jiang Xun unfolded the newspaper in front of the two of them.

Then he pointed to the somewhat familiar serial killer wanted revelation above, and said to Si Yufeng, "Look."

Si Yufeng couldn't understand the meaning of his teammate for a while, but when his eyes shifted to the photos of the ten victims killed by the serial female killer, he suddenly found in shock——

A young man in a T-shirt was smiling silently at them.It was the young PD who brought them into the villa in the first place.

The author has something to say: thanks to the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution: 7 bottles of Buli; 1 bottle of Junxie;

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
