Yin Chengjue’s past life was a complete joke.
The star he personally groomed not only betrayed him but twisted the knife when his company was on the brink of collapse.
Reborn, he vowed ...
At this point, Rong Yu deliberately paused, giving everyone some time to digest the information, before continuing, "So, Teacher Liu is already a wolf in my eyes. However, I don't agree with banishing him on the first day, because we still have a white wolf in this round."
Rong Yu looked at Hua Yun: "The identity of the White Wolf cannot be verified by the Seer, so my personal suggestion is to keep Teacher Liu, the obvious wolf, for the time being, and then look for other wolves. Only if we really can't find any suspects should we vote him out. That concludes my speech. Pass."
"Clap clap clap!" Liu Qingling couldn't help but clap her hands: "Great! Xiaoyu, you've already decided that I'm the wolf! And it's all because of that unintentional remark I made."
Liu Qingling sighed, "I didn't think that much about it. When I saw someone get eliminated, my first reaction was that the werewolves had made their move. I didn't think about the witch. It was my oversight. I wasn't careful with my words, but you can't just accuse me of being a werewolf because of this unintentional remark, right? I think Lei Shao is right. There's definitely a werewolf between Xiao Yu and Xiao Yin. It's quite possible that the werewolves ganged up on the sheriff."
Liu Qingling: "I'll say it again, I really am the Seer. Originally, I wanted to check number 1 tonight, but now I've changed my mind. I'm going to check number 4 or 5. If the Witch still has the antidote, please save me. If not, never mind. After all, I don't have the Sheriff's badge right now. But it's okay. If I get killed tomorrow, you can identify the werewolves between number 1, number 4, and number 5. That's all I wanted to say. That's all."
Xiao Xiao had also written a lot on the paper in front of him. He looked at his notes for a long time, and finally looked up. While slowly tearing up the paper full of messy, dog-paw-like writing, he said, "The previous speakers all have their own reasons. This is only the first round of speeches. I haven't been able to completely confirm who the real wolf is yet, so I just cast my sheriff vote for Qin Ke."
Xiao Xiao crumpled the torn paper into a ball. "Although I can't find the werewolves for now, I can remind everyone that in this game, we have a special divine role called Cupid. If this special divine role creates a werewolf-human romance or a werewolf-god romance, then a third faction will appear in this game. That is, the Cupid faction, which is independent of the werewolf faction and the good people faction. So we must always be careful. If there really is a third faction in the game, we can't let them sit and watch the werewolves and good people fight each other and then reap the benefits. That's all for my speech. That's all."
Qin Ke: "Speaking on the 8th, I think Xiao Xiao is absolutely right! Cupid's divine role is quite special, and there is a probability that he can connect third-party teams," Qin Ke said, while gesturing casually.
Yin Chengjue immediately noticed that Qin Ke's gesture was pointing at him and Rong Yu.
Yin Chengjue: "..." Are you making such a big move because you're afraid I won't realize that you're the Cupid who connected the two of us?
Meanwhile, viewers with an omniscient perspective also noticed this.
—My God, his hint was way too obvious! Is he afraid people won't realize that President Yin and Xiao Yu are a couple?! I'm so anxious!
—Although I understand that what you said didn't mean that, I still couldn't help but read it that way, I'm so happy!
—I love that line, "I'm afraid no one will realize that President Yin and Xiaoyu are a couple!"
—I have to say, Keke's arrow really hit the nail on the head! I love it!
Fortunately, Qin Ke was always on the move, and most of the players without a god's-eye view didn't notice his little actions. Only Hua Yun's eyes followed the direction of Qin Ke's finger, her gaze lingering on Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu for a while before she thoughtfully wrote a few words on the white paper in front of her.
As a result, the viewers in Hua Yun's live stream immediately saw that he had drawn three lines on his white paper, connecting Yin Chengjue, Rong Yu, and Qin Ke together.
Prior to this, his record on this blank sheet of paper was:
Yin Chengjue: Good guy or white wolf?
Rong Yu: Witch or werewolf.
Liu Qingling: Werewolf.
Qin Ke: Cupid.
He wrote down the names of these four people, and he had already guessed them pretty accurately!
Since he has now linked Cupid and the lovers together, he added a sentence in the next row:
Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu are a couple.
After writing this string of words, Hua Yun paused, revealing an expression that could only be described as disgust. She then crossed out the words "couple" and added the words "dog male male" after them.
—Let me guess Hua Shao's thought process: There's only one truth, Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu are definitely a couple connected by Cupid—emmm, go to hell with couples! Two scumbags!
—Hahaha, shouldn't Hua Shao be thinking right now: This blind Cupid should be linking me to Wei Shu, shouldn't he? He has absolutely no sense of perspective!
—The truth is out! Hua Shao actually glanced at Wei Shu, his expression quite resentful.
—It was Wei Shu's turn to speak, but after being glared at by Hua Shao, he was probably quite bewildered!
Wei Shu, who was being closely watched in the live stream, scratched his head and gave an apologetic look: "Let me be frank, I'm a villager, a blindfolded player~ I still can't tell who the werewolves are, this game is too hard, sob sob sob, so I've decided to vote with the sheriff, Hua Zi, let's see what you can do!"
The reason why so many people are vying for the position of sheriff is not only because the sheriff himself has 1.5 votes, but also because the sheriff can arrange the speaking order, and no matter what the order is, he can speak last and give a concluding speech.
In the game Werewolf, the order of speaking may seem insignificant, but it is actually of utmost importance.
Because this is a game that tests one's speaking skills, players who speak later can overturn the statements of players who speak earlier, and then add their own ideas to steer the reasoning in other directions.
After all, the order in which players speak is determined by the rules, and other players cannot speak or communicate while one player is speaking, otherwise it will be considered a violation of the game rules.
Therefore, the order in which the sheriff arranges the speeches is very important. If the sheriff, who is the one who speaks last, is not confident in his ability to summarize the speeches, he needs to arrange the speeches of the players he believes are capable to be at the end of the speech order.
Of course, Huayun itself doesn't need to worry about this.
He glanced at the notes on the paper in front of him and said, "Let me summarize my initial impressions from this round of observations. I am the Seer, number 2 is a good person because only two wolves can kill at night, and they wouldn't be stupid enough to kill themselves. Nothing is clear on the first night, and the witch shouldn't poison anyone, so we can rule out the possibility of the witch poisoning someone. Therefore, we can guess that number 2, Teacher Yang, is a good person, but we don't know if he is a villager or a god. Number 3, Lei Shao, is pending. Number 4, Yin Chengjue, is my good person. I will investigate number 5, Rong Yu, tonight. Number 6, Teacher Liu, is a werewolf, for the same reason as Rong Yu's analysis. Number 7 is pending. Number 8, Qin Ke... pending. Number 9, pending."
—? ? ? Didn't Hua Shao clearly state that Qin Ke is Cupid? Why is it said to be pending?
"Are you stupid?! If he just said Qin Ke was Cupid, wouldn't the werewolves be able to kill Cupid directly based on his statement? His divine role has already been exposed. If he exposes Cupid as well, the werewolves only need to kill one more witch, and the entire divine team will be game over!"
Hua Yun continued, "Although I am now convinced that Teacher Liu is a werewolf, I agree with Rong Yu's statement that we should keep the obvious werewolf alive to lure out the white wolf. As for how to lure out the white wolf, I cannot say it here. If you trust me, please vote for number 8 with me."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ke's eyes widened in disbelief, and the live chat was filled with question marks.
Hua Yun then explained, "First of all, Teacher Yang, who left the field, is either a villager or Cupid. Since wolves don't kill themselves, and the witch's antidote can save her in this game, it's impossible for her to die on the first night. So, the deceased's identity is only one of these two. If we assume that Teacher Yang is a villager, we are now one villager short, so we absolutely cannot vote for a villager. I can't confirm the identities of the others, except for Teacher Yang, who is a villager or above. Random voting is very easy to make mistakes, so we can only vote for Teacher Yang first."
Hua Yun: "Similarly, if number 2 is Cupid, we would now be missing a divine position. My own divine position has already been exposed. If we vote for Cupid, then number 8 would definitely be a villager. Of course, if he were a werewolf or a white wolf, that would be even better, as it would eliminate a troublesome person."
Hua Yun: "In conclusion, I have decided that you can bet on number 8 if you want."
Broadcast: "The first day's speeches are finished. Voting will now begin."
Broadcast: "Voting time is over. The results are now being announced."
Number 4, 2 votes: 6, 7;
Number 6, 2 votes: 3, 8;
Number 8, 4.5 votes: 1, 4, 5, 9.
Broadcast: "Number 8 received the most votes. Number 8 is out. Please leave your last words."
Qin Ke: ? ? ?
Qin Ke: "Hua Zi! Are you crazy?! You already acknowledge that I'm a good person, so why are you still voting for me?!"
Hua Yun looked at the voting results and smiled mysteriously.
Qin Ke: "What are you laughing at! I get it now! You're not the seer at all! You're the werewolf! You're the werewolf!"
After speaking, Qin Ke looked at Yin Chengjue and Rong Yu, who had also voted for him: "He so obviously killed a god, didn't you two see it? Or are you werewolves too?"
Qin Ke wore an expression of self-convincing: "That's it! It must be! You guys must be werewolves! Otherwise, with your intelligence, why would you vote for me along with him? I'm clearly a good guy!"
"Because this isn't just a live-streamed game, it's also a promotion for a variety show," Yin Chengjue said slowly. "Variety shows are all about entertainment."
Qin Ke: "Huh? So?"
Yin Chengjue: "To know that you are a good person and then vote you out is, in my opinion, just a form of entertainment."
Viewers watching the live stream: "..."
