What No. 1 said was so precise and reasonable that even Meng Fei couldn't help but applaud. What a good turn of events!
Everyone's eyes changed flickeringly.
I just fell in love with reasoning No. 7 and fell into an infinite spiral of reasoning. No. 3's expression became even more uncertain, as if he didn't know who to believe.
Even No. 8, who had always been determined, had a moment of wavering in his dark eyes.
When No. 5 had a private chat with him alone, he had already told him that the real killer deduced from the number of sticky notes was No. 1.
Of course, judging from the rebuttal of No. 1, it is entirely possible that this was a game laid out by No. 5 in advance.
After all, when No. 5 was assigned to stay alone in Room 5, it was already destined that No. 3 would come to assassinate him.
Has the groundwork started on the 5th since then? If so, this person's thinking is really far-reaching.
But why did No. 5 take the initiative to blow himself up and be forced to live alone?
Maybe this is also an accident. He asked to reveal his suspicion just to gain the trust of others, but he did not expect that No. 3 would actually arrange for him to live alone.
If he does not live alone, but lives with No. 6 or No. 7, it does not matter even if he is locked by the confinement lock. There is no need to do anything, he can just wait for No. 3 to continue killing for him.
After the arrangements were made, it was too late for him to refuse. If you refuse, it is very likely to arouse others' suspicion.
So he began to change his mind at that time, made an appointment to chat with someone, and began to reveal the killer's conspiracy shown in the number of post-it notes.
But the clearer this possibility becomes, the murkier the reality becomes.
Because according to the logic of the other party No. 5, the complete opposite may be as real as the image in the mirror.
If you can't figure out which one is real and which one is fake, it's all over.
For the first time in his life, No. 8 felt that his IQ was not enough. He was disappointed.
It turns out that in this kind of game, I am the character who is completely manipulated by these highly intelligent players?
No. 5 glanced at him and smiled with a hint of encouragement, as if to say:
"Don't give up on yourself, you are still of some use."
He imagined more insults on his own.
"I have a way to directly verify who the killer is."
No. 5 said to everyone.
"any solution?"
No. 8 and No. 7 asked almost in unison.
"The room can accommodate up to two guests at a time and cannot be shared by more than two guests."
This was on his original post-it note. This sentence should come from the original message left by the system, copied by the killer.
"This rule seems very simple. Because if there are three people, the killer will have no chance. The killer can't beat three people."
"But this rule also implies a method to verify the identity of the killer. It is clearly written that it is a guest. Only guests are subject to this restriction.
"Assuming that the killer is also subject to this restriction, then as long as we live in pairs, the killer can't enter the room at all, and he can't kill anyone.
"So the killer is exempt from this rule. In other words, if the killer is in the room, a third person will be able to enter the room.
"After I finished the private chat with No. 8 in Room 5, I transferred the key to the door of Room 5 to No. 8 and stayed in the room by myself.
"After the darkness, No. 3 came in to kill me. But in the end she didn't kill me, and the two of us stayed here until the darkness ended.
"At this time, there were two people in the room, myself and No. 3. No. 8 had the key to door No. 5. He tried to come in, but he failed. The door could not be pushed open and he could not get in.
"Because No. 3 is not a real killer. She is restricted by the room limit of no more than three people. She simply cannot enter a room where there are already two guests.
"This shows that it is an inherent characteristic of the killer to not be limited by the number of people in the room and cannot be transferred. Even if the killer gives all the items to No. 3, it will be the same.
"This also shows that I am not a killer. Because if I were a killer, No. 8 could come in.
"So it's very easy to verify who the real killer is. We can ask No. 1 and another person to enter the room.
"If people outside can't enter this room, it means No. 1 is not a killer. On the contrary, it means No. 1 is a killer!"
"Okay, you are right, not bad!"
The smile on No. 1's face was very stiff, showing extremely poor acting skills.
Is No. 5 right? No, in fact No. 5 is not right!
Of course, the system would not leave such a huge loophole, allowing the killer to be exposed from the rules so easily.
All the rules were "streamlined" by him. He intentionally deleted some of the details of the rules.
Only when it's dark is the killer free from the restriction of two people in the room. In bright time, the killer is also restricted.
So now he and another person enter the room, and if other players want to enter from the outside, they will not be able to enter!
Let them verify it, verify it quickly, and clear my suspicion again. The situation is like a mass of muddy water.
As long as darkness comes, I will not hesitate to kill again!
So he smiled awkwardly and clapped his hands, deliberately reminding:
“Which of you will come into the room with me?
"Assuming that I am a killer, you have to face me 1v1 in the room. A 1v1 between the guest and the killer will definitely lead to defeat.
"Of course, even if this is the case, the killer can only kill three people. You can also hang the lock on the door, and the guests will win in the end.
"But the winner never includes those who are eliminated by being killed. Whoever enters the room with me means that the hope of advancement is completely gone.
"Which one of you is willing to give it a try?"
Even if no one wants to get into the room with him to verify, he's just stalling for time.
There is only about a minute left before darkness falls, and these people will definitely hesitate.
Even if these people can't come up with a result from their discussion. As long as darkness falls and he starts killing people in the living room, there is also hope of a comeback!
"Let me do it."
Almost before he could change his mind, No. 8 was already standing in front of the door of Room 8, touched the door with his hand, and said:
"No. 1, there are still 50 seconds before darkness.
"I'll give you 20 seconds, go in by yourself, and then I will follow. This way any player outside can try to see if they can come in.
"If you don't go in when the time is up, I will take you down with No. 5 and No. 3 now. 30 seconds is definitely enough."
No. 1 walked into the room silently.
Facing three people in the living room, especially No. 3 who had the same assassination sword in his hand, he couldn't last more than 30 seconds.
When they arrived in the room, since there was still 50 seconds of light, as long as they verified that the door could not be pushed open, his suspicion would be eliminated. So people outside will not hang the confinement lock.
Next, darkness will come.
No matter what the people outside are like at that time, he can kill No. 8 in the room first, and then go out to kill other people, and still have a chance to win.
This is the last chance!
