Chapter 135: A three-party conversation
Ye Xuan was able to tell that it was a fake belt, not because he was a treasure appraiser, but because the system's appraisal was absolutely the most accurate.
For a game, if even the system's judgment is no longer valid, then what else can be real?
"Fake?" The thief was not convinced at the time, "Tell me, why is it fake?"
No one actually cares whether the belt is fake or not; what everyone cares about is the jewels inlaid on it.
However, the authenticity of the belt also depends on the jewelry.
Therefore, the thief felt a little nervous.
"This, I don't know what's false about it, but it's just a kind of, uh, a kind of intuition, do you understand intuition?" Ye Xing was stunned for a moment.
Yes, he doesn’t know these things. What’s the point of telling that thief?
Oh, by the way, it’s to discuss cooperation. Only with cooperation can there be sharing of spoils.
Perhaps, the system's lack of response was not due to the authenticity of the belt, but because he did not meet the condition of "sharing the spoils"?
After all, he simply accepted the benefits from the thief and played no role in stealing the jewels.
That's alms, alms.
So, he told the thief sincerely, "To be honest, I can't tell whether this thing is real or fake. I just think the host of the banquet must have a backup plan, otherwise he wouldn't let you get the treasure even though you were locked up here."
He just didn't quite understand why the thief could so casually give him the belt while being imprisoned.
Maybe, that's the problem.
"Those guys outside are only responsible for catching people. They don't care whether you bring anything in or not." Another unfamiliar voice sounded in the small "dark room".
The voice contained a hint of smile, as if it was watching the fun of these two people.
"Woo, who is that?" Ye Xuan was startled by the voice that came out of nowhere in the darkness. "Please tell me your name, please!"
Although the room is so dark that I can't see the people sitting opposite each other.
After hearing this, the man laughed out loud: "Before asking someone's name, it's basic courtesy to tell them your own name first, right?"
This person's laughter was a clear, childish voice, like that of a little child.
But this did not make Ye Xing relax his vigilance, but instead increased his fear.
You know, in many horror movies, the most terrifying characters appear to be children!
This map is not normal at all, even horses can drive cars.
Not to mention if a little ghost comes, wouldn’t that be an easy thing?
"Don't worry, I'm not here to hurt you, hehe." The guy was still laughing and could see someone's fear.
This time, the laughter was even more strange, like surround sound.
"Please don't laugh..." Ye Xing said weakly.
He found that the conversation now became between himself and the unidentified guy, and the thief seemed to have left the group chat of three people.
By the way, the Phantom Thief never communicated with the third voice from beginning to end.
Is this something only he can hear? Is this really a ghost?!
The source of most fears is the rich imagination of human beings.
Even though he knew that his wild thoughts might be the source of his fear, he was unable to stop his increasingly outrageous imagination.
Before he was scared to death, the voice sounded again: "I'm not in the room you're in. There's no point looking for me."
It seemed that the other party thought that they had already started looking for him.
But this person didn't expect that, of the two people in the room, one didn't want to pay attention, and the other was very scared.
This was also beyond his expectations.
You know, the guy who could install a radio in the "small dark room" must have seen many people being locked up here.
Ye Xuan doesn't know this yet. After he knows it, he won't regret not staying calm and looking for it. Instead, he will be glad that he was so scared that he didn't dare to move.
It was because of this that he received help from the other party.
"We didn't look for it." The real NPC told the truth about the actions of the two people in the house.
One person sat still, while the other sat upright.
"Oh?" The voice seemed to be aroused with interest. "No wonder there is no movement... Not bad, quite interesting!"
After that, the voice laughed in a new way, bringing auditory torture to those who listened.
What a beautiful laugh, very penetrating.
Ye Xuan complained about the other person's laughter and raised his hands to cover his ears.
There is no need to adjust the hearing on the panel at this time.
He covered his ears just to express his dissatisfaction and resistance.
It’s not a question of whether or not you can listen.
It's a question of whether he wants to listen or not.
Even though no one could see him in this dark room, he still had to strike this pose.
This is a silent protest. He cannot let the weird laughter pollute his spirit!
"You covered your ears." The voice sounded, startling Ye Xuan.
How did the other party know? !
If he knew at this time that the other party had laughed more than once, he would understand where this prediction came from.
Few people can accept this kind of laughter!
"Yes," the Phantom Thief actually echoed at this time, "He did cover his ears."
The person who had been silent for a long time spoke for the first time and actually exposed his "teammate".
No, even if we are not in the same camp yet, it is not appropriate to expose us like this, right?
Moreover, in such a dark room, how could anyone see him covering his ears?
Ye Xing remained silent, he knew that it would be useless even if he tried to explain himself.
Forget it, let's just leave it at that. The other party is not in this room anyway, so we can't hit him.
That's not right. Shouldn't the guy who laughed so mentally pollutingly be the one who should apologize to him?
What is he guilty of? Fall down!
After simulating slamming the table in his mind, he felt an unprecedented sense of calm.
That's how it should be, troubles retreat -
"Don't think you can block me by keeping silent~" the annoying voice sounded again, "Now is the time for conversation!"
What time?
Why force dialogue?
Could this also be part of the mission?
Ye Xuan felt even more confused.
Who is this guy? Why was the step of exchanging names skipped?
He had even prepared a fake name that he could use, but it was in vain.
The principle of exchanging sincerity for sincerity is very simple.
From this we can infer that a pseudonym probably cannot be exchanged for one's real identity.
However, he still wanted to give it a try.
After all, if you get useful information in exchange, you can make a lot of money without doing anything!
In this kind of plot-based game, collecting and mastering information is of paramount importance.
All gaming techniques are useless in the face of absolute information asymmetry.
If he knew what kind of person the other person was, he would be able to think of more possible paths to take.
Especially now that he is locked up here, it can be said that he can hardly move an inch.
Huh?
Since the man said he was not in this room, how did he communicate with them?
He finally noticed the problem.
The thief had figured out the locations of the radio and broadcasting devices.
"There." The Phantom Thief seemed to see through his confusion - his night vision ability was really strong, worthy of being a thief who could travel at night.
The thief turned on the flashlight and indicated the direction.
With the help of the not-so-bright light from the flashlight, Ye Xing was able to see the device clearly.
"So that's how it is... Wait, you have a flashlight but you don't turn it on?!" he said in surprise.
The darkness made him think of unrealistic things in fear. If he didn't want to destroy the authenticity of the game background for the time being, he would have taken a lamp from the mall.
If you want to take it, take the brightest light!
Get the searchlight!
The Phantom Thief didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what kind of outrageous thing the other party was thinking at the moment. He just said in a flat tone: "Oh, I just don't want to use it. I can see it clearly."
It's quite easy to see things in a room of this size.
The real NPC felt like he was being shown off.
Is this guy showing off his night vision?
It’s not a cat, let alone an owl. Is it so amazing that it can see clearly at night?
However, Phantom Thieves can probably be called "nocturnal animals", right?
He had never heard of a thief stealing treasures in broad daylight.
Maybe it exists, but he just doesn't understand it.
"You see," the voice sounded again, "I'm upstairs from you."
After saying that, he laughed softly a few times and didn't sound like a child anymore.
"Upstairs? Is that another small dark room?" Ye Xuan took out the map and borrowed the thief's flashlight to look at it. "It's not drawn..."
"This is the top floor." The thief added.
In addition to the main hall, this banquet hall also has several small rooms, but they are all on the edge of the first floor.
Because there is only one floor here, it can be considered a "bungalow".
This five-meter-high bungalow has no attic, and the ventilation duct that I climbed before is already the highest point indoors that a person can stay.
Top floor?
upstairs!
"Could it be that you are actually an angel, and 'upstairs' refers to heaven?" Ye Xuan began his bold guess.
This is not impossible, everything is possible in the game.
"No matter how you think about it, that's not the case..." The voice became very helpless.
A question that so many people have speculated about has today welcomed the most outrageous candidate answer.
"So, you are actually an alien, and your UFO happens to be parked above this banquet hall?" Ye Xuan had another idea.
The fact that the system gave him a few options before was already outrageous, so he wouldn't think it was a big deal if an alien appeared at this time.
"No! No!" The man obviously didn't expect that he would suddenly turn from an angel into an alien, and he was very angry.
What is the structure of this person's brain? How can he say such irrational words with such confidence!
If Ye Xuan knew what the other person was thinking at this moment, he would probably laugh out loud in a weird way.
In his opinion, everything on this map is "unreasonable"!
Every choice he made along the way was so abnormal.
Did anyone care what he thought about this? No!
So he didn't care.
Guess a few more!
Until the other party guesses the correct answer and then announces it!
