"Detective Conan?" The other party smiled and nodded. "Very interesting."
"Hehe." Su Bai took a deep look at the lawyer in the black suit. He didn't say anything and walked straight in.
The lawyer followed Su Bai to the villa. Su Bai's meaningful smile made him a little puzzled, and it was not until Su Bai knocked on the door that the lawyer woke up. He had been chatting with Su Bai in English before. From the moment he got in the car, it was Su Bai who had been speaking in English. However, when the doctor said the word "Conan", he suddenly spoke in perfect Chinese.
Although both the Chinese word "Conan" and the English translation "Conan" referred to a person, if the pronunciation of "Conan" was purely based on the pronunciation of "Conan," it should be similar to the tone of "Nen." If a normal Westerner heard the tone of "Conan," it would be difficult to immediately think of this cartoon without the prefix "Detective" or "Detective."
The lawyer gritted his teeth. He knew that the doctor in front of him must have found out that he was actually not a Westerner. At first, he wanted to test the other party, but in the end, the other party inadvertently dug a pit for him to test the truth.
The porch was opened from the inside, and the door was opened by an old man with a crooked face. He was wearing a butler's uniform, very much in line with the image of a modern old butler in the general TV series. This made Su Bai pay a little attention to him.
Under the guidance of the old butler, Su Bai and the lawyer walked into the living room. There were many people sitting in the living room. Fortunately, the living room was big enough. Even if there were seven people sitting in it, it still didn't seem crowded.
Yes, there were seven people sitting in the living room, so this old butler should be an NPC.
Among the seven people, there were three Westerners, two women and one man. There were four Asians, three men and one woman. Su Bai didn't see any familiar faces, and he guessed that no one would use a familiar face at this time.
The nine of them sat down. No one introduced themselves, because everyone knew that the nine of them were all using fake faces and fake names. Why would they introduce themselves if they had nothing better to do?
Everyone looked at the others with a little vigilance. Su Bai looked around and found that no one was arrogant or disdainful. There was also a violin and a piano in the living room, but no one used them.
If anyone could sit there and play a beautiful song in this environment, they would definitely be able to show off their cool, but such a pretentious person would end up miserable.
Su Bai believed that among the nine people, there should be at least three high-level listeners, but everyone hid themselves.
After all, being high-profile when one shouldn't be high-profile was called having a mental illness.
After all, being high-profile when one shouldn't be.
"Ladies and gentlemen, lunch is ready." At the old butler's invitation, everyone went to the dining room for lunch. It was very exquisite Western food, and the taste was not bad. After lunch, the old butler gave everyone a door key, meaning that this was the rest of the room to rest.
In addition, the old butler also said that the iron chain bridge was broken, and the repair team would come about a week later, because there would be continuous storms starting tonight. Whether it was planes or vehicles, it would be difficult to carry out work on the mountain at this time.
Everyone took their keys to the second floor with a heavy heart. The first floor had a large dining room, a large living room, and a large gym, while the second floor was full of bedrooms.
Su Bai's room number was 201, the first room on the second floor after the stairs, and the location was not bad. After entering the room, Su Bai locked the door with a backhand. He believed that there would be many people who would do this.
Taking a deep breath, Su Bai's originally heavy face also revealed a relaxed smile at this time. Opening the window, there was a mountain range outside, and the distant mountain top was still covered with snow. To be honest, it was very beautiful. The scenery here was comparable to Jiuzhaigou, but unfortunately, the current situation made it difficult for people to be in the mood to enjoy the scenery.
After walking into the bathroom and taking a cold shower, Su Bai lay on the bed. This story had just begun, and everyone was not even clear about the rules of the game, so for the time being, there should be no danger.
However, whether it was sitting in the living room or eating, everyone looked worried. Su Bai was very clear that if it was an ordinary veteran like this, it would make sense. How could slightly outstanding veterans and high-level listeners not be able to grasp the rhythm of the broadcast in the world of the story?
The reason why they looked so worried was that they were afraid of being seen by others.
Hiding one's incompetence.
It was to hide their weaknesses.
However, sleeping at this time was a bit too much of a waste of time. Su Bai first started to search in the wardrobe and bedside table, but the wardrobe and bedside table were empty, and the bottom of the bed was also empty. Other than the quilt and pillows on the bed, there was really nothing left in this room.
Su Bai originally thought that there would be a dagger here so that everyone could use it to kill.
Hills should be here, but Su Bai could not see which one was Hills. Although the two of them had reached an alliance at the beginning, under the premise of the protection of the mask, whether it was Su Bai or Hills, neither of them had the intention of tearing off the mask to find the other person for the time being.
After searching for a while without any results, Su Bai could only lie back on the bed. He was trying to put himself in the shoes of an ordinary person. First of all, according to the taste of the broadcast, in an isolated villa with nine people, it was impossible for there to be no bloody violence or suspense.
But now, the rules of the broadcast were actually not fully revealed, so at least from Su Bai's point of view, he did not find a reason to kill. In essence, it was because he did not have enough impulsive benefits.
He was now an ordinary person, so how should he operate it?
It was best to find something to defend himself. Although Su Bai had a physical strengthening system, he was now an ordinary person. His melee combat ability was equivalent to that of a retired veteran, or even worse. This was because even if his previous fighting style was biased toward melee combat, it was based on his strong enough physical body. Using the body of an ordinary person to fight was obviously not suitable for him, as the kind of mutually damaging combat method was obviously not suitable.
If the other party had a weapon, he would definitely be very afraid.
Weapon?
After thinking for a while, Su Bai opened the door to his room and walked downstairs. In the living room sat a Western woman with brown hair. She looked very beautiful. In fact, among the nine people, all of them were handsome men and beautiful women. Su Bai's Su Yuhang was also a very handsome man, which was understandable. After all, except for a few people with unique tastes, most people liked to make their characters prettier.
Moreover, if he did not make his character prettier and handsome at this time, it would instead attract attention, just like how a handsome man among a large group of ordinary people and an ugly man among a group of handsome men would be very conspicuous.
The woman was reading a book. When Su Bai walked down, he only glanced at Su Bai and did not have the slightest intention of chatting. Su Bai walked into the kitchen.
The kitchen was filled with all kinds of vegetables and fruits. When he opened the fridge, there were also drinks and fresh milk. In short, there was no need to worry about food or drink.
When Su Bai walked to the table and reached for a kitchen knife, he found that in the container where there should have been seven kitchen knives, there were only five left.
This meant that there were already two people who used kitchen knives as self-defense weapons.
Su Bai smiled and reached for a narrower kitchen knife and put it in the inside pocket of his clothes.
After that, Su Bai returned to his bedroom.
In the evening, the old butler called everyone down for dinner, and then everyone returned to their respective rooms.
That night, Su Bai slept very lightly. When the next day, the old butler called everyone for breakfast again. All nine of them ate breakfast together, then lunch, then dinner, and the next day …
Until dinner on the fourth day, Su Bai thought to himself as he ate. Until now, no one had died. This was true. Even an advanced listener would not dare to act rashly in this state.
However, the reason was still because there was no motive to kill!
However, it was already the fourth day. Su Bai did not believe that the broadcast really planned to gather nine people to eat and drink this time. If nothing unexpected happened, the broadcast should have added a motive at this time.
The people at the dining table were no longer as indifferent as they were at the beginning. Many people were even chatting with each other. Obviously, they were on guard, but after four days, they had become much more familiar with each other. There were even people in the gym who had started working out.
After putting down the cutlery, Su Bai walked up the stairs to his room. He was in the room near the stairs. When Su Bai opened the door, the brown-haired woman who liked to sit in the living room and read suddenly said faintly, "The broadcast should give a motive."
Su Bai glanced at the woman, and the woman also glanced at Su Bai. The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Then, Su Bai watched the woman walk into the room next to him. Then, Su Bai also walked into his room.
As expected,
On the bedside table,
There was a piece of white paper!
Is it here,
Motive?
Su Bai locked the door from the inside and walked to the bedside to take the piece of white paper in his hand:
"The first person to kill will have the right to ask me one thing."
Su Bai's breathing suddenly stopped,
This was the motive for murder sent by the broadcast,
Su Bai believed that this note should be on the bedside table in all the rooms.
At this moment, the appearance of the little guy appeared in Su Bai's mind,
As long as he killed one person,
As long as he killed one person,
Then he would be able to find out the little guy's whereabouts from the broadcast!
Su Bai's eyes began to turn slightly red,
It was obvious that this motive was enough for Su Bai!
Of course, Su Bai knew that this motive should be suitable for most people!
