Chapter 309 Charles: A man can’t say no
Looking at the red rose in his hand, Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the others.
Since he has become a "ghost", the other "ghost" must be the player.
In the next round of the game, two other players will win the game as "ghosts".
In the final round, four players again win the game as “hiders”.
In this way, they all achieved the conditions for ultimate victory.
Three victories, and a change of identity.
This is Lin Jiu and his team’s plan.
Basil glanced at the few weirdos who had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, and thought to himself: You'd better pray that the other "ghost" is not you.
After all, if the "hider" wants to change his identity, he has to kill the "ghost".
But unfortunately, the other "ghost" is not a player.
It's Xilin.
Okay, someone is going to die.
Xilin looked at the red rose in her hand, and for some reason, she shuddered.
An indescribable panic made Xilin look at Lin Jiu, who was sitting leisurely on the sofa playing with roses, with some fear.
What happened before came to mind again. Xilin quickly looked away and took a few deep breaths.
It's okay, it's okay...
Xilin, who didn't know that she was in the countdown to death, comforted herself in her heart.
As the clock struck midnight, the second round of the game began!
Lin Jiu could feel that he was sent to a dark space in an instant, but he vaguely felt the presence of another person.
Not far from him.
And this was not felt through keen perception, but through the rose in the hand.
It seems that the "ghost" can sense the location of another "ghost" through the roses.
I'm afraid it can still be used for communication.
Lin Jiu raised his brows slightly, which made his next actions easier.
100 seconds is not a long time.
But in this dark, silent and uneasy environment, every second becomes extremely torturous.
Xilin was probably in a panic and didn't notice the effect of the rose in her hand, so she was very quiet.
But Lin Jiu was sure that the other party must be very panicked right now.
He made no attempt to soothe her.
Silently counting down the last seconds in his heart, Lin Jiu slowly opened his eyes, then stood up, ignoring Xilin who had not yet recovered, and walked straight out of the manor.
Before getting rid of Xilin, he had one thing he needed to confirm with the "Hider".
Besides, there were Blue Rose waiters in the hall, so it was not convenient to take action.
It is a good opportunity to test whether there are any limitations on the "ghost" sensing the other party's position through the rose.
There is a tacit understanding between the players.
Lin Jiu quickly found Charles, who was hiding perfunctorily.
"I need your help." Lin Jiu said.
Charles was a little surprised. "What do you want me to do?"
"I need you to ask the mirror a question," Lin Jiu said. After a pause, he added, "If you can't do it, don't force it."
The "ghost" cannot look into the mirror, so it cannot ask the mirror any questions.
This is why Lin Jiu asked Charles for help.
Charles raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I thought you knew this level of mental pollution wouldn't have a significant impact on me, Nine." He added meaningfully, "A man shouldn't say he's incompetent. Besides, it's rare that you need help, so how could I refuse?"
Seeing that Charles looked very happy, Lin Jiu said nothing more.
Through the roses, Lin Jiu quickly confirmed Xilin's location.
She was still inside the manor, moving very slowly, as if she were taking a stroll. Lin Jiu strongly condemned her lack of seriousness in taking the game.
Since the "ghost" needed to stay away from the mirror, Lin Jiu did not follow Charles closely, but walked behind him at a distance of five meters.
Although Charles was not worried about being discovered by Celine, he decided to look in the garden first.
He was lucky and found a mirror in just five minutes.
The surface of the medium-sized floor-length mirror was gray and covered with a thick layer of dust.
Charles, who was somewhat of a germaphobe, frowned slightly, but he still walked forward. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the mirror, he silently repeated the question that Lin Jiu had asked him:
Can people in the same camp kill each other?
In the mirror, the blurry reflection began to distort after more than ten seconds, and finally, it turned into bright red handwriting and appeared on it: [OK.]
The next second after the answer emerged, Charles felt a cold breath rising from the soles of his feet to his heart.
He tensed his body slightly, and before he turned around, he heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
By the time Charles came over, Lin Jiu had already started dismantling the puppet.
He casually threw the black rose aside.
"The answer is yes." Charles walked forward, looked down at Lin Jiu who was concentrating on dismantling the puppet, and spoke softly.
"Wait until that woman gets outside the manor before you do anything." Lin Jiu said without even looking up, "Throw the body into the flowers. I'm sure the roses will be very happy."
He said it so casually that it gave the illusion that he was actually talking about what to eat tonight.
Charles was used to it and responded softly.
Lin Jiu did not spend too much time on the puppet. As he thought, it was just a finely crafted puppet. What really made it move was the black rose that he casually threw away.
Throwing away the broken limb in his hand, Lin Jiu's eyes fell on the black rose.
The rules state that if you see a black rose or anything related to it, you cannot get close.
The moment he grabbed the black rose, Lin Jiu felt a strong consciousness trying to take over his body, but he easily suppressed it.
It seems that this rule is actually used to protect them.
Lin Jiu destroyed the black rose very easily.
The moment the sharp blade pierced the black rose, Lin Jiu was momentarily dazed. It wasn't because of the large amount of polluted air, but because at that moment, he heard a piercing scream.
The overly sharp voice made him dazed for a moment.
Like blood, black liquid flowed out from the "wound".
Lin Jiu and Charles watched the black rose wither and rot quietly. Only when the polluted smell completely disappeared did they relax their tense bodies a little.
Lin Jiu turned to look at Charles with a faint smile on his face: "Let's go?"
"good."
