The night crows sing not a lament but a death song.
No one had expected this upside-down relationship before tonight.
Cheng Shi and the other two followed the Night Crow's trail and investigated for a while, and discovered some other blasphemers sporadically.
It was not until the blood moon in the night sky began to dim and the sky was about to brighten that these noisy night crows flew away in groups, flying to somewhere outside the town.
Qin Chaoge wanted to chase after her, but Li Bola stopped her.
Such a move would be too alarming.
And of the six players who were supposed to be working together, now there are only three of them left investigating.
The investigation should not be carried out too deeply before sufficient forces are integrated.
What she meant was that before fighting external enemies, we should first stabilize the internal situation.
Cheng Shi deeply agreed with this.
However, after experiencing tonight, the truth about the death of teammates in the hotel was almost revealed.
That is, someone deliberately imitated the behavior of this fable guardian and killed someone.
The murderer is the player, and can only be a player.
Perhaps because there is not enough time to find out everything before and after opening the eyes, he/she overlooks the fact that the "punishment of blasphemers" only occurs at night.
Of course, it is also possible that they happened to encounter a fleeting opportunity, so they improvised the crime and then covered it up casually.
In short, this clumsy fake suicide split the player camp, which was not so solid to begin with, into several parts.
Ji Ran, Hu Xuan, and a temporary team of three.
It would be unlikely to successfully pass the trial with only half the number of people.
So we must bring in more fighting force.
Three missing one.
Whether the next person to come to the table will be a warrior or a mage depends on which of the remaining two teammates is a human and which is a ghost.
Once the lineup is determined, the subsequent trials may not be too difficult.
Although the murderer's true face was not seen all night, the truth was already before us.
The three of them investigated for a whole night and found no contamination from the blood moon. Instead, all the residents in the houses where the night crows landed were dead.
This shows that the so-called "punishment for blasphemers" is simply an illusion, and the person truly directing all this behind the scenes is a master who acts swiftly and stealthily.
But at least he was not a supporter of [Blood Moon], because he clearly had the ability to massacre the entire town, but he didn't.
Similarly, he would not be a believer of the Eternal Day, because Cheng Shi could be sure that at least half of the people who died that night were his most devout followers.
This is very interesting.
This horrific murderer seemed to be deliberately creating panic and trying his best to maintain the "accuracy" of the song.
If the ballad is a fable, then he is undoubtedly the executor and guardian of the fable.
If a person could persevere in crawling in the shadows to do this in such a long history of a small town, there must be a meaning behind it. As for what this meaning is...
Probably, that is the answer to this trial.
Cheng Shi could match almost everything he saw with the fable, but he couldn't figure out the night crow in the ballad.
What role did these dark birds play in this massacre?
Why did the murderer follow the trail of the night crow to kill people?
Are they the judges?
The three-man team did not find any other "blasphemers". When they turned back, they saw a large number of jailbreak passengers who had committed suicide on the streets.
Their expressions were all filled with fear and their limbs were twisted in an exaggerated manner, but even so, their right hands were still broken and grasped at the hilt of the knife in front of their chests.
The Guardian of Fables is very obsessed with suicide.
Cheng Shi looked at the corpses all over the long street and discovered a new business opportunity.
"Don't tell me, I think selling daggers in this place must be very profitable. There is no shortage of customers."
"......"
The two teammates were slightly stunned and did not follow Cheng Shi's train of thought.
But then they felt relieved that Cheng Shi's face was no longer gloomy.
This [corrupt] priest seemed to have an overly strong sense of justice, and his expression had never improved since he saw people dying one after another.
But they didn't know that the reason why Cheng Shi looked so bad was not because of the death...
Actually, it’s also because of the death.
After checking all night, the amount of sacrifices Cheng Shi owed had reached double digits. God knew how he was going to repay them.
If I delay paying it back for a few days, that "generous" adult won't charge me interest, right?
Harm pia.
"Okay, it's almost dawn. There shouldn't be any other twists and turns tonight, so we can take a break for a while."
A smile appeared on Li Bola's slightly tired face. It seemed that the wind was also tired tonight.
Qin Chaoge agreed very much and nodded frantically:
"Call it a day! What do you mean, go back to the hotel?"
Cheng Shi rolled his eyes and gave a friendly reminder:
"Ma'am, don't forget that we are still prisoners. If we want to go back, we have to go back to the dungeon."
"?" Qin Chaoge's face darkened and she retorted, "I escaped from prison with my own ability, why should I go back?"
"......"
Cheng Shi shook his head helplessly, then frowned and said, "I've been walking around all night and checked so many bodies. I always feel like something is a little strange, but I can't tell what it is."
Li Bola smiled tiredly:
“Isn’t it strange enough that someone is acting out a fable in the night?
But fables are false and will eventually be discovered, just like lies, which will eventually be exposed."
She had just said half of her words when Cheng Shi's expression turned a little strange.
