Chapter 122 Mermaid Elegy and Werewolf (12) She is at my feet...
The President finished speaking and calmly sat back on the sofa in the corner. The crowd fell into a deathly silence, the chaotic chatter subsiding to a whisper.
None of the dignitaries present were stupid. No matter how nice the president's words were, it did not prevent them from immediately recognizing the current situation.
——The current situation is: between the dispute between the werewolves and the good guys, there is another powerful force intervening. For their own safety, they'd better gain the trust of the President as soon as possible to avoid death at his or his hands.
But what if the president is a werewolf?
There were many people who had such doubts, but they immediately dismissed the idea.
If Mr. President is really a werewolf, the situation for the good guys will be very bad. They'd better hope that Mr. President is really on the same side as them.
In the second half of the discussion, the atmosphere became very subtle. Almost everyone carefully looked at the president's face when speaking, and their awe was evident in their words.
Meanwhile, perhaps distracted by the president's pressure to use force, the discussion yielded no results. They even overlooked the fact that the white bear hadn't roared. In fact, if they had investigated this, they could easily have identified two suspects.
——The four white bears who blew themselves up yesterday had a total of eight upstream and downstream customers. Six of them were killed at night, leaving two, who can be called the downstream customer of white bear A and the downstream customer of white bear B respectively.
Among them, White Bear A's next player was not killed because his next player was the Werewolf. If he was killed, White Bear would directly become the adjacent player of the Werewolf and roar in the early morning.
Without the aid of a wolf breeder to confuse the audience, this would be equivalent to exposing the werewolf directly, so the werewolves could only let go of this good player certified by the white bear.
As for the fact that White Bear B's next home was let go, it was purely a sleight of hand. The werewolf didn't want White Bear A's next home to attract too much attention, so he left an extra player behind.
The werewolf players put a lot of thought into this little design, but they didn't expect that the appearance of Mr. President made everyone completely ignore this point.
For a moment, not to mention the werewolf players, even the ghosts who were watching in the dark felt very sorry. They had thought that they would see the two white bears' next generation trying hard to prove themselves.
Soon, everyone realized that they had nothing to say to each other, and the discussion came to an end. People either sat there silently thinking about who to vote for, or walked out.
Seeing this, the ghosts also walked out. Suddenly, they heard someone in the distance say loudly, "Did you notice those people were silent?"
The ghosts subconsciously turned their heads. The person who spoke was a white man in a suit and tie with gray hair, and he was referring to them, the ghosts.
The others originally looked at him like the ghosts, and then looked at the ghosts in the direction he pointed.
The man immediately added, "I noticed them yesterday! They've been here for two days straight, but they haven't said a word!"
The ghosts subconsciously looked at Si Ling again.
Si Ling was in a good mood at the moment, so he became quite patient. He shrugged at the old white man and said in fluent English, "There are many people who didn't speak, sir. This happened suddenly, and most people are confused about the situation. Many people don't want to join the discussion, but they don't know what to say."
"Yes, that seems to make sense." The old white man raised his chin slightly, his expression rather arrogant. "But I've observed you for a long time. Not only do you not participate in the discussion, you don't even whisper to each other. It seems that you don't care about the situation at all, nor do you care about the threat posed by the werewolves."
Si Ling raised his eyebrows, waiting for his next words with anticipation.
The old white man paced forward and analyzed loudly: "I think I have reason to suspect that you are werewolves. Your discussion took place in the middle of the night, so you don't care what we said. You appeared here just to refer to our words and decide who to kill tonight!"
He was aggressive and became more and more emotional as he spoke.
When Si Ling was still a few meters away, a figure blocked his way.
The old white man was stunned and looked up subconsciously. Xuan Chi did not say anything, but just looked at him coldly with his eyes lowered.
“…” The old white man felt that this man was not someone to be trifled with, so he stopped tactfully, and even his aggressive tone weakened.
He looked at the goblins and said, "Maybe we should vote them out first. If they really are werewolves, it's game over."
"Ha." Li Qi laughed, deliberately speaking in a Texas accent he had learned from the three werewolf brothers. "Old man, I don't mind you voting for us, but open those eyes of yours that only know how to stare at children and perverts and take a look. Are we players?"
"?" People and ghosts were all in an uproar.
People didn't understand what she meant at first, and the ghosts didn't understand where Li Qi's sarcasm came from.
Li Qi fell silent for a moment, then said in a rather loud voice, "Didn't you see? This old man was in the PDF file of visitors who previously exposed Epstein's island! His youngest grandson is several years older than the victims on the island. Isn't that disgusting?"
“…” The ghosts and monsters showed contempt, and even the expressions of many humans became very subtle.
While the guests on this island overlapped significantly with those on Lolita Island, not everyone was like that. In the eyes of quite a few, while abusing mermen, as aliens, was acceptable, it was still perverse to abuse the young of their own kind.
For a moment, the old white man looked a little embarrassed. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, don't interrupt me. I want to say..."
"I didn't interrupt!" Li Qi immediately looked at him again, "I told you, we're not players. If you don't believe me, why don't you try it?"
Many people immediately looked through the list on the panel. The list was accompanied by photos. They flipped through it from top to bottom, but they couldn't find any photos of this group of people.
"How is this possible?!" A surprised voice came from the crowd. When the old white man heard this voice, he guessed what was going on and looked at the ghosts in astonishment: "How is this possible? You..."
He was a man of great resilience. Although he had just been urging everyone to join forces to kill these people, he immediately lowered his stance when he noticed something was wrong. "Friends, please forgive my previous offense. I really didn't expect such a possibility. Can I ask why you aren't players?"
He hoped that there was still a possibility for this game to change from a "player" to a "non-player".
"Tsk." Li Qi tutted his lips in disdain, walked around Xuan Chi who was blocking his way, and patted his shoulder. "Maybe it's because we are all good people, unlike you who have done so many evil things. If God could keep accounts, your account book would probably be thicker than the Bible. How could he not want to take you away?"
Old white man: "..."
Li Qi turned around and wanted to leave. The ghosts didn't want to bother with them any more, but someone keenly caught the message revealed by Li Qi's taunting. The middle-aged woman from yesterday walked up and said, "Sorry to bother you."
She stopped not far from the old white man, keeping a distance from the ghosts. She looked at Li Qi and said, "It seems that you are very disdainful of our hobbies. So, I want to ask, why did you appear on this island?"
Li Qi laughed without a trace of guilt: "You have money, connections, and a lot of free time. Why not come and see this amazing species of mermaid?"
The woman turned a deaf ear to this explanation and continued to ask gracefully, "What I mean is...with all due respect, could it be that you guys are the ones behind all this?"
Li Qi responded quickly: "Excuse me, if I had this kind of skills, I would definitely not be so idle."
"..." Si Ling couldn't help but look at Bai Ma and asked her with his spirit body, "How did she grasp the mentality of the rich second generation so well? Did you teach her?"
Bai Ma: "??? Am I that kind of rich second generation!!!"
Li Qi's answer was actually very convincing. In addition, she was just an ordinary person when she was alive, so she didn't have the temperament of a "successful person". Saying such words made her look like a playboy, not like a capable person who could create such a big scene.
But the problem is that besides her, this group also includes Si Lingxuanchi, who has an unusual temperament, and several vampires. Li Qi's words are enough to excuse herself, but they are completely unconvincing when applied to them.
Countless suspicious eyes fixed on them. Most still had some sense and just watched in silence, but some had been driven to the brink of collapse over the past two days. Concerned about the possibility of their fortune being inexplicably lost in this horrific place, a young man burst through the crowd, gun drawn, and charged at them: "Assholes!"
"What? No!" His companions felt something was wrong and wanted to stop him, but they were a step too late. With two gunshots, the bullets flew out of the muzzle and headed straight for Li Qi's eyebrows!
Next, different people saw different pictures.
In the eyes of most people, the bullet suddenly turned when it flew in front of Li Qi and shot into the wall not far away. Since the rules of the game had long stated that "non-players cannot be harmed", after experiencing two days of strange situations, everyone accepted this result well.
From the shooter's perspective, he saw the other oriental lady next to Li Qi tilt her head slightly with an expressionless face, and then...
She was still standing there without moving, but she had already flashed before his eyes.
"You...you..." The man's pupils suddenly shrank and he fell to the ground in fear.
Both the middle-aged lady and the old white man realized that he was about to be retaliated against, and they quietly and carefully retreated.
As the man stared intently, Si Ling's body remained in place, her face suddenly approaching him. Her face turned as pale as paper, her eye sockets bulged, and her entire eyeball was white, with only a pinprick of black pupil in the middle.
Those dark pupils studied him intently, as if observing an unknown creature that intrigued her. She smiled, her lips curling upwards at first, then reaching a certain point where they couldn't move. Unsatisfied, she began to crack at the corners of her mouth, centimeters apart, all the way to her ears.
"Ah...Ahhhhhhhhh!!!" the man screamed heart-wrenchingly.
The next second, the horrifying scene in front of him suddenly disappeared.
He was stunned for a moment, then he crawled to his feet and tried to escape. Just as he stood firm, something fell from the sky, hit his head with a "bang", and then continued to fall to the ground, rolling to his feet.
The man looked closely and saw that it was the head of the woman who had just mocked him.
When she stopped at his feet, her face was facing upwards, her eyes looking at him, and she blinked twice.
