Lin Sanjiu felt as if she was watching a live-action movie.
Bohemia had her feet up on her desk. She was munching on a bag of potato chips that she got from her subordinate's office. Descartes was leaning on the armrest of her chair, leaning back to watch the live broadcast of a game with the theme of "final exam".
After Descartes requested to communicate with Lin Sanjiu, the entire wall of the office disappeared and was replaced by a brightly lit classroom. The "camera" on the screen was facing Lin Sanjiu. She was sitting in front of a desk, staring at her test paper with a worried expression. From her side, Lin Sanjiu could see rows of male and female students in white shirts. All of them had their heads down and were concentrating on the test paper. The pens in their hands were scratching noisily. The only person who didn't know what she was doing was probably Lin Sanjiu.
She stared at her test paper with a blank expression on her face.
"Has she ever been to school?" Descartes asked.
"How would I know if she went to school or not? She doesn't look very educated."
Lin Sanjiu obviously heard him. She frowned and was about to look up when she was stopped by a female voice from afar, "Number 39! Don't look around! You're not allowed to look up during the exam! "
Biting her lip, Lin Sanjiu lowered her head reluctantly. She stared at her test paper for a while, but she didn't miss a single word. Lin Sanjiu didn't know the content of the test paper. After a while, sweat started to form on her forehead.
Bohemia couldn't see the content of her test paper, so she couldn't help Lin Sanjiu even if she wanted to. Besides, Lin Sanjiu didn't want to help. She looked around the classroom and swallowed a mouthful of potato chips. She complained to Lin Sanjiu, "There are no weapons in this classroom. How am I supposed to open the scoop for you? Oh, by the way, can you help me check if there is a ceiling fan on the ceiling? "
Bohemia was such a lazy murderer that the victim had to think of a way to get herself killed. She saw Lin Sanjiu's eyebrows twitching, but she didn't dare to raise her head. Bohemia couldn't help laughing. She sounded a little carefree, "Why do you look like that? Think about it. If you cooperate with me to open the scoop for you, isn't that considered suicide? It's killing two birds with one stone. Besides, you can control the situation and won't really die. "
Bohemia did not care whether "cooperating with Lin Sanjiu" was considered "suicide" or not. As long as Lin Sanjiu achieved her goal, it was fine. As for Lin Sanjiu, even if Lin Sanjiu exited the game, she would still look like a fool who was ready to embrace the truth. Bohemia really did not care whether Lin Sanjiu could leave the game or not.
Lin Sanjiu lowered her head. She didn't know if she had agreed to the suggestion. She bit the tip of her pen and thought hard about the test paper.
In the final exam game, she was a student who was under high pressure. Her actions were strictly restricted, and she couldn't cross the line. In the Bohemian game, "if there is no prohibition, it is possible"; "final exam" is the opposite — its rules are "white list". Lin Sanjiu would be informed of what she was allowed to do by the NPC in the game. However, she was not allowed to do anything outside of that range. Even though she was just a student in an examination hall, she seemed to have even less freedom than the prisoners in Bohemia's prison.
Bohemia waited for a while, but she did not get a reply. She grew impatient, "How about this? If you agree, blink once. If you disagree, blink twice quickly."
Lin Sanjiu bit her lip and hesitated for a few seconds. She blinked her eyes quickly.
"Very good! Is there a ceiling fan in the classroom? If there is, blink once. "
She blinked again.
"Is it near you? If it's near, blink once. If it's far away, blink twice. If you don't know … If you don't know, just stare at it for a while. "
Lin Sanjiu opened her eyes wide. She did not dare to blink for a long time. Bohemia chewed her potato chips slowly. She was not in a hurry at all. After half a minute, she said to Lin Sanjiu, whose eyes had turned red, "Oh, what a pity."
What should she do to affect the other game? She could not reach it.
As soon as Zhang Heng called out to the dungeon host, the square-faced man immediately responded. Bohemia raised her voice and asked, "How can I move the thing in the game?"
"You can't touch the item in the other game directly, but you can look for me to exchange for the right to affect the environment of the other game."
"Exchange? What can I use to exchange for it? "
"There are two principles of exchange. One is to harm others to benefit oneself, and the other is to sacrifice oneself for others. Let me introduce you to the second method first — "
"No, just tell me the first method," Bohemia said as she wiped the crumbs from her mouth. Bohemia wiped the crumbs from the corner of her mouth. She made up her mind very quickly. She turned her head and bared her teeth at Lin Sanjiu, "... You want to cooperate with me to 'commit suicide', don't you?"
Lin Sanjiu lowered her gaze and nodded. She seemed to trust Bohemia.
"When you successfully increase the difficulty of the other party's game, set up obstacles, or cause the other party to lose hope of completing the game, I will grant you a certain amount of authority based on your achievement. With the corresponding authority, you can ask for help from the other party's NPC in the other game, or you can take the other party's item back into your own game. As for how you use your authority, it all depends on you. I call it 'trade'. "
"How can I increase the difficulty of her game?" Bohemia sat up immediately. She was eager to get into action.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course."
As soon as the voice faded away, the image of Lin Sanjiu and the classroom disappeared. The white wall of the office with all kinds of certificates hung on it came back into view.
"Since you want to increase the difficulty of the game, it's pointless to let the person hear it," the host explained. "Since the game the target is in is a 'final exam', you have to answer a question to obtain the right to trade."
"Just tell me what the question is."
The instance dungeon moderator snapped his fingers and someone suddenly knocked on the office door. Amidst the loud knocking sounds, the instance dungeon moderator calmly explained, "Among the people who entered your office, one of them is a serial killer who has yet to be discovered. In a brief interaction with you or another person, he or she has revealed his/her suspicious points. Please answer according to the suspicious points. Which person is the serial killer? "
Bohemia gulped. "A serial killer?"
The knocking continued. Apparently, it would not stop until she gave the order to let the person in.
"Yes. This is a mini-game between the big game and the big game. However, I have to remind you that if you give the wrong answer in the mini-game, your onion will not be undressed. However, the unidentified serial killer will officially stay in your game and move around you. For example, if he is just a background NPC in the past, who knows what kind of qualitative change will occur in the mini-game. "
"Huh? Wait a minute, this … "
"You didn't let me finish my introduction just now. You already asked me to give you a question," the host sighed. "You have to listen to the rules in the future."
Bohemia's shoulders slumped. Even if she knew the punishment, she couldn't stop playing the mini-game. After thinking about it, she blamed Lin Sanjiu.
Her impression of serial killers came from the movies. In fact, even though she might have killed more people, the concept of a "serial killer" was more chilling.
The knocking on the door was neither fast nor slow.
Amidst the knocking, Bohemia mustered her courage and called out, "Come in!"
"Miss Winters?" A woman that Bohemia had never seen before poked her head in and smiled, "The results of the previous examination are out."
Bohemia had always yearned for a refined and scholarly temperament, and this woman was the epitome of "high intelligence". She was probably in her early forties and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Her skin was fair, and her chestnut hair was neatly combed. When she spoke, she spoke softly and clearly. Bohemia knew that she was definitely not a serial killer.
Bohemia's gaze suddenly fell on the woman's white blouse.
A splatter of crimson liquid stained the side of her white blouse. Even though the area of the stain wasn't big, anyone could tell that it was blood.
Descartes was so agitated that he twisted his body and shouted, "It's too obvious! Blood appeared at the beginning of the game. This is too obvious. It can't be her! Oh, but if the person who came up with the question guessed that we would think this way and deliberately did the opposite, then she could be … "
"It's all nonsense!"
Bohemia was frustrated that she couldn't tell it to shut up, so she used her higher consciousness to clench it. Then, she pretended to be calm and asked, "Oh?"
This was the method that she came up with. If she didn't want to expose herself, she had to talk less.
"The result is not very ideal," the gold-rimmed glasses sighed, "I thought that we would be able to find the victim's DNA from the vomit of No. 1702. Unfortunately, there was nothing. No matter what he did with the only piece of the victim's body, he wouldn't have eaten her as the prosecutor thought. This time, his lawyer will have something to say when he appeals. After all, there is a video of cannibalism on the computer, but it doesn't mean that he would do it. "
There might be DNA in the vomit?
Bohemia felt that the potato chips she had just eaten were about to climb up from her stomach. She took a deep breath and pointed at the person who was probably a doctor. She then changed the topic, "Your clothes …"
"Ah," the female doctor looked down and was shocked, "Someone was injured in a fight this morning. When he was sent to me, he accidentally got it."
It seemed to make sense. As the warden, Bohemia only needed to ask around to know if anyone was injured in a fight.
"By the way," the female doctor suddenly stopped smiling and nodded slightly at her, "I have received the flower basket you sent. He is so young, not even one year old yet … Thinking of this, I feel that the world is too unfair. But you don't have to worry about me, I … I have been mentally prepared since the day I was pregnant with him. "
Her child passed away?
Bohemia's suspicions were aroused. She mumbled a few words, took the large brown envelope, and thanked the doctor. Just as the doctor turned around to leave the office, two more people approached the half-open door.
"Miss Winters."
The two men were both wearing the same black jacket with the FBI logo sewn on their chests. One of them was tall and the other was short, but they looked equally serious. "… Can we talk to you in private?"
