Chapter 127 The Wolves’ Brains and Acting Skills
She slept too late yesterday, which made Lin Xi, who had been going to bed on time and getting up early every day, feel a little dizzy. When she went to the bathroom to wash up, she saw that her eye bags were a little obvious. Lin Xi pouted, washed her face and brushed her teeth quickly, then changed her clothes and went out.
She wasn't the first or last to leave, but somewhere in the middle. However, Lawyer Qin, whom the muscular man and the middle-aged woman had been trying to get, had already left last night, so they still didn't know which room she was staying in. That didn't matter; they could use the process of elimination.
There were only four rooms, and no one knew who they belonged to. However, Lin Xi saw the man with a relatively low presence walking out of the room opposite the middle-aged woman.
So now it is:
Lin Xi, middle-aged woman (wolf), gangster, unknown, male high school student (deceased), unknown;
Dubbing, male with low presence, unknown, model, muscular man (wolf), female with low presence.
Choose one out of three, but the accuracy rate is only one-third.
A group of people walked downstairs one after another. The model, the voice actor, and the male high school student did not go out. When Lin Xi walked forward, he also saw a particularly obvious mark on the door panel of the room between the gangster and the male high school student. It was probably caused by the muscular man hitting it with an object last night.
They came to the first floor, and Lin Xi started to make breakfast for herself. This time, she didn't take it directly to the second floor to eat, because it would be too obvious to walk back and forth, so she found a big bowl for everyone, cooked a bowl of noodles and two eggs for herself, and took the bowl to the rest area in the corner of the living room and ate on a chair.
Lin Xi didn't eat alone either, she would secretly call Chen Sang Ning out and feed her some.
This scene was a bit disorienting. Shen Sangning half-peeked out from Lin Xi's side, then leaned against Lin Xi, using her body as a barrier while nibbling noodles. Halfway through her snoring, she felt someone approaching, and immediately slipped back into Lin Xi's body.
After testing, I found that the first rule in the main rules, "This game can only have 11 participants", is the same as the number requirement in "Sweet Home". In fact, you can do it secretly as long as no one realizes.
The person who came was the girl with a relatively low presence. She was quiet and seemed a little introverted. She looked at Lin Xi and suddenly said, "Ms. Lin, you didn't seem to sleep well last night. What were you doing?"
She could clearly see that Lin Xi's eye bags were heavier than yesterday, hence her question. Her implication was that if she wasn't careful, she'd label her as a wolf. Lin Xi wanted to keep playing, so she put on a show: "I've said it many times before, I'm a weak woman, powerless. Last night, I was terrified, afraid those ghosts would choose me as their opponent. What if I died?"
"I stayed awake until 4:30. After I was sure those ghosts wouldn't come looking for me, I went to bed."
She turned around and blamed the girl: "On the contrary, you, Miss Fan, you look very good and it seems that you slept well last night. How did you sleep so soundly? Can you teach me? I don't want to be frightened all night long."
Miss Fan looked at her for a moment, then smiled. "There's only one reason why I slept so well. Regardless of whether I can sleep or not, if they really come looking for me, I'll be dead. I might as well get a good night's sleep."
But in fact, not many people sleep well. Even for someone like Lawyer Qin who looks very smart and intelligent, Lin Xi found the dark circles under her glasses. Lin Xi slept for at least a few hours, maybe Lawyer Qin didn't sleep all night.
♀
At Lawyer Qin's invitation, everyone headed to the restaurant. Lin Xi cleared the bowls from the table. Chen Sangning said sullenly, "I haven't eaten my egg yet." Lin Xi quickly called Chen Sangning out and tossed the egg to her. Only after she finished her own egg did she feel satisfied.
Lin Xi poured the remaining soup and noodles into the kitchen waste bin, then put the dishes into the dishwasher before slowly returning to her seat. Meanwhile, the models and voice actors who hadn't appeared before also arrived, pulled out their chairs, and sat down in their previous seats.
Lawyer Qin glanced around and noticed that the male high school student hadn't come down. She frowned and said, "It seems that the young student must have died last night. Alas, it's so pitiful that he died at such a young age."
The muscular man took the opportunity to suggest: "Does anyone know where his room is? Let's go check him out together. If he's alive, we should find him alive. If he's dead, we should also tidy up his body."
The suggestion made by the muscular man was actually quite scheming, but Lawyer Qin agreed: "His room is right next to mine. I didn't see him come out just now, so I was a little worried. Let's go and check it out."
Lawyer Qin accidentally revealed the location of his room, but unfortunately it was still unclear which room it was, after all, they didn't know who lived in the rooms on the left and right of the male high school student. Some people wanted to go, but some didn't want to go, thinking that there was no need to see the person who was dead.
The gangster held on to this thought, and the model didn't want to see it either: "I don't want to. He was killed by someone. His death must have been horrible. I don't want to see it."
Finally, the seven of them went upstairs and, led by Lawyer Qin, arrived at the door of the high school boy's room. The lawyer knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside. Just as the muscular man was about to break in, the voiceover said, "Try to turn the doorknob first."
The muscular man turned the doorknob and it opened. In fact, he opened the door in the same way last night, but now he couldn't help showing some surprise: "It really opened!" He pushed the door open, but found that there was no one inside, so he showed a stunned expression on his face: "No one inside?"
"How is that possible?!" Lawyer Qin was the first one who didn't believe it. He pushed the muscular man aside and walked in. Others followed in one after another.
But just as the muscle man had said, there was no one inside, and no body either. It truly became a scene of no one, no one alive, and no one dead. The middle-aged woman expressed fear: "How could this be? Where's his body?! Is there really a ghost?"
You weren't like this when you saw the sanity drop last night -
Lin Xi silently complained in her heart, these ghosts were truly dedicated, and each one of them had superb acting skills. Whether it was the muscular man or the middle-aged woman, their performances were flawless. If Lin Xi hadn't known their identities in advance, she would probably have been fooled by her.
Lin Xi is not the only one who has this idea. The live broadcast room has been constantly brushing:
[The acting is really good, can Lin Xi learn from him? 】
Lin Xi really has no acting skills. She didn't show any surprise, astonishment, or fear.
[Auntie, Muscle Man: 100 points, Lin Xi: 0 points! ]
[Does this dungeon rely on ghost teammates to carry the team? ]
[If it doesn't work, the official should enroll Xijie in an acting training class. Her acting is really unbearable. She has a silly face.
Performance! To say her eyes are dull is an understatement! Oh my god, Lin Xi's eyes are so bright, how can they look so dull?
[The current Lin Xi is Niu Hulu·Daidu.]
The good news was that Lin Xizhu was in the middle of the team, and the room was so small that the group could only go in slowly, and then everyone started looking. However, the room was clear at a glance, and even if there was a place where someone was hiding, it was only the bathroom, the closet, and under the bed. After checking, no one was found, which made everyone's expression become heavy.
Lawyer Qin first proposed: "Is it possible that they moved the body?"
The voiceover shook his head. "Impossible. First of all, why would we go to all that trouble to move the body? Not only would it do no good, but it would also likely leave more traces in the process. And there's no way to hide on the second floor. We just walked around the first floor and there's nowhere to hide."
The muscular man took the opportunity to raise a different point of view: "You just said that there is no way to hide on the second floor? That's not necessarily true. What if the body is really hidden in his room?"
The voice actor's face remained gentle, but his brows furrowed. "The question you're asking... isn't necessary. What good would it do? If someone were to search the room like you did, you'd probably be caught."
But Lawyer Qin felt it was necessary. She was a person who valued evidence. Now that the body had disappeared inexplicably, she would definitely want to find it. So with the cooperation of Lawyer Qin and the muscular man, everyone agreed to the search.
First, the two rooms next to the high school boy. I checked the room on the right first. The muscular man asked, "Whose room is this?"
No one answered, so Lawyer Qin asked, "Could it be the room downstairs?"
The muscular man directly denied it: "It can't be that beautiful model. She lives next to me. I know her."
"It's not that man's, he lives next to me." The middle-aged woman added, and everyone present shook their heads. The only possible answer was either an empty room or the gloomy man's room. The muscular man chose to open the door directly. It was empty inside, with no signs of anyone living there.
Everyone looked at the places where corpses could be easily hidden, but found none.
At this point, the Wolf Team had already achieved their goal: to find Lawyer Qin's room. It was to the left of the high school boy, the room the muscular man had smashed with something. But they still had to make a show of it, so they searched the other rooms and concluded that the model's room was the gloomy man's.
In the end, only two people's rooms were left unsearched. When they went downstairs to inform the gangster and the model, both of them looked surprised.
The model even opened his mouth and said directly: "Are you sick? Why did you search the room? The Wolf Team is not crazy, why did they hide the body in the room?"
But everyone had been searched, and only the two of them were left. The model could only angrily lead them to the door of her room: "I've made it clear in advance that I will only let women in. There are four women besides me. It's impossible for everyone to be a wolf. They are enough for inspection."
After the room was searched, Lin Xi finally thought: There is such a trick?!
