In less than ten minutes, two cars drove over from the main hall. After all, the distance was not very far, and the fire and smoke from the vehicle explosion could be seen.
This time it was Dimitri, Jack, Cynthia and Deloris who drove over. After the four people arrived at the scene, they were a little surprised to see Lu Ning still alive.
"What did you come out for? What happened? Who attacked you?" Dimitri asked in shock.
"Can we talk about it when we go back? Now it's basically confirmed that there is a murderer on the island." Lu Ning pulled at the wet skirt of her clothes.
"Get in the car." Cynthia pointed with her thumb, "Jack, please help me."
"Don't worry, this car won't explode again." Jack Swan took out some tools and walked to the almost burned-out vehicle and asked, "Doctor Lu, what attacked you?"
"Magic." Lu Ning went down the slope and found his medical kit, while Jack Swan checked the car.
"Magic...isn't it a superpower?" Dimitri licked his lips, "There are quite a few magicians on this island, so this is a bit difficult to handle."
"You still want to find the murderer?" Cynthia snorted coldly, "Looking at this scene, I'm afraid no one is here."
"Wouldn't it be easier if you learned how to counter-track? Cynthia... you're a little too lazy." Dimitri reached out and knocked on the car shell, "There are quite a few traces left on this thing."
"You are very capable, why don't you give it a try?"
"Hahaha, I'm not in this direction." Dimitri waved his hand, "I hope you can solve your problem soon, Cynthia."
"That's a lot of nonsense...Jack, what's going on in the car?"
"No, the other party did it very cleanly. Even if there was a tracker or something like that, it would probably be burned down, so that's not good." Jack Swan removed a few parts from the car, "But I found the thing you were talking about."
"What?" Lu Ning frowned.
"It's the same style as what I gave you." Dimitri laughed, "I felt something was wrong early on, so I not only prepared a back-up for you, doctor, but also installed one on all vehicles. Black box. I have to thank Cynthia for giving me the inspiration."
"I remember that you guys have different opinions, right?" Lu Ning looked at Cynthia again.
"Just get used to it, this is Howard." Cynthia shrugged.
"I really shouldn't believe that you have any sincerity in cooperating..."
After Jack completed his inspection, everyone took the car back to the main hall. Lu Ning briefly talked about his experience, and Dimitri later used the black box to verify that what Lu Ning said was true.
Except at the end - because of the cover of the gunshot, Lu Ning's last counterattack was considered to have hit the created familiar.
"But this way, we can't determine who is the one who attacked you." Justina said regretfully after hearing this, "Familiar shaping is a spell that many magicians know, because it does not consume a lot of materials. , it just requires a larger section of the magic book. Every magician here can do it."
"I said, can't you just take out that magic book and read it? Wouldn't it be clear at a glance? Didn't that gardener do the same thing?" Kajiab said impatiently, "This time there is clear evidence. Aren’t you going to check it in front of me?”
"Mr. Kajabo...is the person who was found by his father. Don't you know this?" Lenwood asked.
"Um?"
"Magic books are not something that can be read casually. Yin Asong doesn't even carry his magic book with him, so he is not a real magician at all. And reading the other party's magic book means seeing through all the other party's preparations , able to carry out targeted arrangements... Do you think this is possible?" Lenwood explained.
"It doesn't matter, I basically won't trust anyone now." Lu Ning said coldly, "I won't live with anyone today. I will go back to my room and bring a gun. Who dares to come to me? Then don’t blame me for shooting him directly.”
"Ah... this is not necessary, is it?" Dolores was a little trembling, "I don't know who wants to kill you.
, but the magician can definitely attack you without entering the room..."
"Is a magician omnipotent? Even face to face, you may not be able to block my shot." Lu Ning narrowed his eyes, "I have already fought back once, so I can have a second time. As for what you want to do, I don't care. No, if you find a body, come find me again. I'm going back to change clothes now, so don't follow me."
After saying that, Lu Ning walked back to her room and ignored everyone.
"Oh, no wonder you're angry..."
"It's not very safe this way, why don't we just keep it a little tight?"
Everyone was talking about it, but no one really tried to persuade him to stay. When Lu Ning left like this, a few people felt a little bit in danger.
"Speaking of which, my father died yesterday because of one person." Mayuri Daida said gloomily, "She will probably turn into a corpse tomorrow."
"Then I'll go back too." Kagabo snorted, "Since you all said so, and the doctor said that magicians can plan killing methods, then my room is safer."
"We will not restrict your freedom, but luck like Dr. Lu's will not happen many times. A murderous magician has too many ways to kill a lone person," Lenwood said.
"Yes, of course, Dr. Lu must have the ability to survive. You should consider your own strength." Dimitri added a threat with a smile.
There is no doubt that fear of death is a common feature of most people. Except for tourists who don't care about this, people still agree to rest in groups the same way as yesterday.
"But we should add a condition." Orlando suddenly said, "Now that everyone has a preliminary concept of magic, we should also consider the method of killing people through magic. I suggest that during the night watch, in addition to paying attention to the corridors, In addition to the movement of people, we should also pay attention to whether the people in the house are using magic. Under the current situation, we temporarily think that using magic is equivalent to committing murder, is that okay?"
"Of course." Lionwood said happily, "Everyone is here except the doctor, so we magicians will make an agreement? The use of magic must be under everyone's supervision, how about it?"
Everyone's reaction was mediocre. The effectiveness of this agreement for magicians was very low, basically nothing. After all, everyone has a way to secretly activate magic.
Time soon came to night, and Lu Ning sat in the room and read a book all afternoon. After Rennix died, she had no job. Now her biggest entertainment besides reading books was guessing the identities and abilities of the tourists.
Referring to her own abilities, the killing ability is easier to crack than the auxiliary ability. After all, the killing ability only requires a reasonable explanation of the crime scene, while the auxiliary ability requires a complete construction of the crime process. From this point of view, those who draw more support abilities are the most difficult to deal with.
As for identity, Lu Ning still had to consider which unlucky person would choose a servant.
When choosing an identity, you need to think about a name, and the distribution center will confirm it in your mind. Therefore, there is no comprehensive selection perspective. Under this condition, the choice of tourists is purely based on first come, first served. Choosing a servant means that someone is curious about the information on the servant side. In turn, it is very likely that they learned some information about the servant in the previous round. The servants were most likely related to Lian Qingyi in the previous summary. The person who played Lian Qingyi in the last round was Yu Guiting.
Why is it this person?
Even though they didn't have much communication, Lu Ning also knew that Yu Guiting was a bit of a crazy person. It was difficult to guess what he was thinking, and he didn't have very accurate logical rules. Although this will also put him at a disadvantage at certain times, it also makes logical analysis easy to fail on him.
While thinking, Lu Ning turned her gaze back to the book in her hand.
"Desert Rush" records a rally that took place in the desert. For more than twenty days, Tsuburaya Temple followed the contestants across the entire desert, witnessed the desert oases, and also recorded the warmth and warmth of human life. The text in this book is not as immersive as the previous travel notes, but looks down at the players as if from a superior perspective. However, the descriptions of many players are very detailed. The players’ future interviews may also be controversial.
In contrast, "Crystal Hills" is a book about a scientific expedition team. They were formed under orders from their superiors to investigate a bizarre phenomenon that occurred in the wasteland. In the end, after encountering countless incomprehensible phenomena and making a lot of sacrifices, the captain finally sent back the investigation data, but the team disappeared forever. In the wilderness.
The two stories don't seem to be closely related, and there is no obvious overlap, but they give Lu Ning an inexplicable sense of similarity.
"Is the previous story too obvious?" Lu Ning pinched her eyebrows and planned to stop here first. She locked the door, picked up the gun and lay on the bed, looking completely ready to fight the murderer to the death.
The hustle and bustle in the main hall faded over time, leaving only the sound of rain hitting the glass. Late at night, Lu Ning, with her eyes closed, suddenly reached out and took out a candle from under the pillow.
The cursed attack does not need to limit the secret room, as long as the number of people watching is reduced. In the dead of night, only the night watchers are awake.
Since you want the life of others, you must also be prepared to be killed.
Lu Ning took out a bottle of medicine, used the powder inside to draw a simple ritual circle, lit the candle, and stood in the center of the circle. She closed her eyes and felt the familiar demon whisper in response to her.
After more than a dozen breaths, Lu Ning opened her eyes.
The curse is completed.
At dawn, terror seemed to be ready to strike. A scream tore through the cold air, but Lu Ning just turned over on the bed, not caring about what happened.
Until Cynthia hurriedly knocked on her door.
"What's wrong? Someone died again? Didn't you sleep together last night?" Lu Ning frowned after opening the door.
Cynthia sighed.
"What if the accident happened to all the people on the last shift?"
There were six people who died. There was no accident in the Orlando group, but the people in the last group of each of the other three groups died.
Enwood, Juno Into, Fuchiko Watanabe, Mayuri Daida, Jack Swan, and Takaya Kanzaki were killed last night.
Lu Ning's first reaction when she heard the news was a bit confused. She killed someone last night, what happened to the others? In this kind of environment, the murderer in the scene still wants to take action? Or is it that any tourist feels as threatened as he does?
[In view of the general environment,
When she was going out, Lu Ning heard Kajabo's yelling. After what happened last night, it was obvious that the wizard no longer believed in the words of sticking together to save lives.
Dimitri, who had obtained the position of temporary head of the family after Lanewood's death, was not so relaxed now, and his expression became a little lost. It's not that he cared much about the deaths of his brothers and sisters, but the subtle killing methods were enough to scare him. After all, when I woke up in the morning and saw the person guarding the door turned into a corpse, I knew how dangerous the situation I was in last night if I thought about it for a moment.
Lu Ning put on her gloves and began to examine the body dutifully.
Lanewood remained sitting on the chair with his head bowed. There was a dried, wrinkled bloody mass on his knees, which was his entire face with some facial flesh. A hole was ripped open in his back, and two vertebrae were severed and gouged out. Lu Ning opened her clothes and saw black and purple marks on Lanewood's heart, and tiny pinholes on the forearms of both hands.
Mr. Yin Tengjun was lying on the ground, his tongue was pulled out, his mouth was bloody and bloody, and the nails on his hands and feet were all pulled out, but other than that, there were no other external injuries. No cause of death could be discerned.
Then came several other rooms. The cause of death of Watanabe Fuchiko was very clear, that is, he was shot in the head, but it was not a penetrating wound, and Lu Ning did not find a bullet in the wound. In addition, her hands made strange gestures. The fingers of her left hand were curled upward in a claw-like shape, while her right hand was downward and pressing the chair with her fingertips, much like she was about to type on a keyboard.
There was an obvious strangulation mark on Mayuri Daida's neck, but this was not a fatal injury. What really killed her was a stick that nailed her to the chair.
The same thing Lu Ning saw on Rennix yesterday.
Jack's death must have been the most miserable. His skin had been scratched by sharp objects and had turned into a lake of flesh and blood. Finally, the murder weapon slit his throat, and the blood completely covered the carpet beneath him. Soaked.
Kanzaki Takaya seemed to have been poisoned, his body was covered in bruises, his hands were still digging at his own throat, and he fell not far behind the door. His eyes were round, but even the whites of his eyes turned pure black. No one dared to touch the corpse until Lu Ning came to this death state.
After the inspection, Lu Ning described the results of his inspection in the hall, without giving any insights, just like before. And everyone in the hall was silent for a long time.
"Tell me, did anyone see or hear something last night?" Zhai Jingqiu broke the silence.
