Xia Xiaoxian was suddenly startled. She opened her eyes and looked up at the man in the flying fish suit.
Seeing that the man in the flying fish suit didn't say anything, she slowly said to the other eight people, "My name is Xiaoxian, and I'm... I'm actually a relative of each of you!"
"Of course, to be fair, I'll also tell everyone where I am."
"Although I live in Kyoto now, I am actually from Yanjing."
"Relatives? How is that possible?"
The other eight people exclaimed in surprise at the same time when they heard Xia Xiaoxian's first sentence.
You know, the word "relatives" is too general, and she actually said they are everyone else's "relatives"!
This relative instantly connected the other eight people together, but in their memories.
They have no relationship with each other at all, not even knowing each other.
"Let me first tell you the truth about what I know."
"As for whether it's true or not, you can judge for yourself after listening to it."
Xia Xiaoxian also knew that it was extremely difficult to make everyone believe what she said.
The man in the Feiyu suit trembled slightly. It seemed that Xia Xiaoxian's sudden words were probably beyond his expectation.
"Actually, this is just a game."
"And we are just ten people in the game."
"Besides, there are actually complicated relationships between the ten of us."
There was some confusion in everyone's eyes.
Xia Xiaoxian was talking about ten people, so could Xia Yongan, who was previously assassinated by the man in Feiyu suit, also be a character in the game?
The beginning of the game is not to find the "trickster".
Everyone began to weigh in their hearts how much of Xia Xiaoxian's words were true and how much were false?
Everyone fell into focused listening mode.
"My surname is Xia, and my name is Xiaoxian. Except for Mingyu, Mingbao, and Jiujiang, everyone else has the surname Xia."
"Xia Lin'an, Xia Ping'an, and Xia Yong'an are all my biological brothers, and Xia Xiaoyan is my sister."
Everyone had an expression of bewilderment on their faces, but they all looked at the man in the flying fish suit.
Despite such ridiculous words, the man in Feiyu suit didn't even show any intention of stopping him.
Everyone could only continue to listen to Xia Xiaoxian's story in silence.
"Xia Chongwen and Xia Chongde are also brothers, and their relationship with us is that they are from the same clan."
"Li Jiujiang is a cousin of all of us with the surname Xia."
"And the Zhang sisters married Xia Chongwen and Xia Lin'an respectively."
"impossible!"
Xia Chongwen and Xia Chongde were the first to exclaim at the same time. How could they be brothers? Absolutely not!
If anyone else was said to be Xia Chongwen's brother, he might be able to accept it.
The only person he felt disgusted with was Xia Chongde, as if he were his enemy for several lifetimes!
"That's impossible!"
Then Zhang Mingyu and Zhang Mingbao exclaimed in unison, "I don't have sisters like that!"
The top prostitute and the decent embroiderer have nothing in common at all, how could they be close sisters?
Although there was no strong dislike and aversion between them like between the brothers Xia Chongwen and Xia Chongde.
However, it is obvious that they look down on each other.
The embroiderer despised the prostitute's dirty body, and the prostitute despised the embroiderer's dirty clothes.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, there was an unconcealable disgust in his eyes.
"She must be the deceitful one!"
Li Jiujiang and Xia Pingan, a thief and a scholar.
Originally, they should have gone in opposite directions. But unexpectedly, at the critical moment, their views were surprisingly consistent.
"Do you want to save the other eight people by yourself?" The person who said this was Xia Xiaoyan, and there was more than just suspicion in her eyes.
"Maybe, what she said is the truth, and...we are all in an illusion and don't realize it." Xia Linan's words made Xia Xiaoxian and the man in Feiyu clothing admire him.
There was a little more warmth in the way they looked at Xia Linan.
Looking at the reactions of the other eight people, Xia Xiaoxian simply smiled faintly, "If you don't want to believe it, then just treat it as a story."
Who isn’t in the story?
Xia Xiaoxian knew in her heart that after leaving this game, all memories of everyone else here would be deleted, just like when they entered the game.
Then in this game, she might as well tell the truth!
"Before I came here, it was because I accompanied Xia Linan on a blind date with the Zhang sisters."
"Xia Xiaoyan, Xia Ping'an, and Xia Yong'an also accompanied us all the way. We all came to the spring outing in Kyoto City together."
"After the spring outing, I happened to meet Li Jiujiang, Xia Chongwen, and Xia Chongde."
"Originally, Xia Chongwen was the host, inviting everyone to gather at Zuixianlou, but unexpectedly, Zuixianlou was packed. Just when everyone was about to get very upset, the owner of Zuixianlou came out and invited everyone to play a game called 'Huaben Sha'!"
"So, what I know is that everyone here is just playing a game..."
Xia Xiaoxian's tone was calm, as if she was telling the story of a group of people who had nothing to do with her.
Moreover, the story does sound a bit absurd at this point.
The other eight people present listened to Xia Xiaoxian's story attentively. Although they still looked quite surprised and confused, they did not question her again.
At this time, the man in the flying fish suit also walked closer to everyone.
He nodded slowly and said to everyone, "Everyone has finished their story. I'll give you one stick of incense. You only need to give your own answers, and you will know your own ending."
really......
Xia Xiaoxian's heart moved.
Upon hearing this, the other eight people were obviously panicked to varying degrees.
After all, they thought, it only took an incense stick of time!
born?
Or death?
A stick of incense!
Li Jiujiang and Xia Chongde both want to choose the other as the "deceitful one"!
After all, thieves and constables are naturally hostile to each other.
What Xia Chongwen was most puzzled about was Xia Ping'an, who seemed to be the most harmless.
He looked too weak.
Xia Xiaoyan and Zhang Mingyu were very skeptical about Xia Xiaoxian's words at this time.
Xia Ping'an, Xia Lin'an and Zhang Mingbao still seemed undecided.
Xia Xiaoxian looked at the expressions of the crowd and knew that she, the "trickster", had almost undoubtedly won this level.
According to the rules set by the man in the flying fish suit, the other eight people except the "Cunning One" made the correct choice and chose the "Cunning One".
Then the remaining eight people can survive together.
Xia Xiaoxian has been trying to figure out whether the "storybook killing" arranged by Xu Yunxuan is what she thought.
Or is there a deeper meaning, or is it just a form of entertainment for Xu Yunxuan, a person in modern society?
