"It's difficult..."
Looking at the list and map in his hand, Mu You leaned back in his chair, rubbing his eyebrows and sighing.
"What's bothering you?" A soft voice sounded at this time.
Mu You opened his eyes and took a look.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, when get off work was approaching, there were no customers in the store. Xiaoya had enough time to go out for a walk. He and Lin Xue were the only two people in the store at this time.
Lin Xue sat on a wooden chair by the window, bathing in the sunset, with a medical book on her legs and reading quietly.
Mu You thought: "Xiaoxue, have you ever played Werewolf?"
"No."
Lin Xue looked up at him and pushed up her glasses: "But I have watched some videos and know the rules."
"Then tell me, if there is a werewolf killing game and there are no witches or prophets, how can the good guys find the werewolves?" Mu You simply asked this question to Lin Xue, wanting to hear what this highly intelligent academic would do. answer.
"There are no witches, no seers..."
Lin Xue repeated the question strangely, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "In that case, under normal rules, there may be no solution."
"oh?"
"The essence of Werewolf is actually a game with asymmetric information. Such a game must have a logical introduction as a starting point, and the abilities of witches and prophets are the only ways for the good guys to obtain information. Without Without these two identities, the whole game has no logical starting point. Everyone can say "I am a good guy" and then pass, then the game will become a rigid game. As long as the werewolves make no mistakes, the good guys will Defeat is inevitable." Lin Xue finished this sentence in his usual calm tone.
"..."
Mu You was stunned. He just asked casually, but he didn't expect Lin Xue to give such a professional analysis.
However...it's no use!
After a lot of analysis, the conclusion was that there was no solution, and it still couldn't solve any problem. It just made him understand how serious the situation he was facing now was.
"Can we just give up..."
Mu You smiled bitterly and shook his head. From this point of view, the game has reached an impasse, and we can only find ways to confront the werewolves in reality, but in this case, the danger will greatly increase...
"No." At this moment, Lin Xue suddenly spoke again.
"Um?"
"If the good guys just want to win, there are actually two ways." Lin Xue said.
"ah?"
Mu You was quite surprised. Lin Xue actually said there was a solution to an unsolvable problem? And there are two kinds?
"What is it?"
"First, if there are more than two werewolf debating masters in the good guys camp, they can use the coordination of words to guide the werewolves to logically talk about themselves." Lin Xue said.
"so……"
Mu You frowned quickly after hearing this, but then shook his head. This method didn't work for him, because the game didn't provide players with a way to communicate at all, and communication with other NPCs was stumbling, so how could he talk about killing werewolves?
"What about number two?"
"The second thing is even simpler. A good person can open his eyes and peek at the werewolves at night. Anyone who doesn't close his eyes is a werewolf..." Lin Xue said.
"Cheating..."
Mu You was a little bit dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Lin Xue, who was always serious, could actually give such a "humorous" answer.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, the werewolf in the game has nothing to do with me for the time being..."
Mu You stretched and decided not to worry about such unsolvable matters.
"Wow wow wow..."
At this time, a siren suddenly sounded outside.
Mu You subconsciously stood up and looked outside, and saw police cars roaring past on the street. At least seven or eight police cars passed by.
"What happened?"
Mu You felt a little strange and was about to get up and go out to check the situation.
"Here comes the water, here comes the water! Who wants to drink?"
Xiaoya suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, holding a bag of iced drinks in her hand. While shouting, she had already given one bottle to each of them.
"Thank you." Lin Xue smiled politely and took the drink.
"Thank you... Xiaoya, what happened outside?" Mu You asked hurriedly.
"Well, I was just about to say this! I heard that there was a murder in the community over there, and so many police officers came. It's scary!" Xiaoya said with lingering fear.
"Homicide?" Mu You was surprised.
Over there, Lin Xue also looked up in surprise.
"Yes, the owners are talking about it. The incident took place in Building 39, Hongwan Community, not far from my home. All the residents of the building over there have now been scared away. The floor has also been cordoned off by the police. Posted on There are a lot of seals, and the police should be investigating the case inside now." Xiaoya said.
After hearing this, Mu You's face suddenly became very solemn, because he suddenly remembered the two murders of players that happened three months ago.
Could it be the same this time...
"By the way, who died?" Mu You asked hurriedly.
"ah?"
Xiaoya was stunned for a moment. She really didn't pay attention to this. She hurriedly opened her phone and looked through the WeChat group.
"Oh, the victim seems to be a girl who lives alone. She was found dead almost a day ago. How pitiful..."
"Girl? Are you sure?"
"It's a girl, that's what everyone in the group says, look." Xiaoya hurriedly raised her phone to show it to Mu You.
Muyou took the phone and looked through the chat history.
According to the statements of the few insiders in the group, the victim was a woman in her twenties, an office worker, and lived alone. It was said that the accident happened last night, but no one heard the screams, and she was not discovered until daytime today. The blood was reported to the police.
"Is it the 'little girl' player? She was also discovered by a werewolf, so she was killed at home?" Mu You immediately thought of this possibility.
Unfortunately, the information in the WeChat group is very mixed. The so-called 'insiders' owners were vague about the situation at the scene. The victim's method of death was not mentioned at all. It is impossible to judge whether a werewolf committed the crime. .
"It seems necessary to go to the scene and see for yourself..." Mu You thought.
The specific details of the case obviously have to wait for the police report. However, if a werewolf is really involved, it is very likely that the police will not report the specific details.
He can only rely on himself to check...
Thinking of this, Mu You didn't waste any time and immediately went upstairs to pack his things. He stuffed all the usable equipment into his backpack, zipped it up and went downstairs.
"Boss, are you going out again?" Xiaoya saw Mu You's outfit.
"Well, I'm going out to do some errands. By the way, there aren't many people today, so you guys should get off work early... remember to lock the door later." Mu You left these words and hurried out the door.
"oh……"
Xiaoya came to the door and looked at Mu You's back that disappeared instantly, still a little confused: "Walk so fast?"
At this time, Lin Xue walked silently to Xiaoya, glanced at the street outside, thought for a while, and suddenly asked: "Your boss...has there been anything strange recently?"
