Live Action Murder Mystery

There were two candles on the dressing table without a mirror, and the candlelight illuminated the magnificent bedroom.

Gu Liang raised his head, looked around the room, his eyes stayed on the coffin for a long time, and then looked at the diary in front of him again.

After a while, he said: "The writing on the coffin lid in the princess room and this room is in English, it should be written by the Duke. But the diary is in Chinese. This Emily should be an oriental girl."

"The Duke fled from the West to the East, built an old castle, bewitched the villagers, and slaughtered the villagers by sucking blood. Ai Meili may be one of the villagers. She is beautiful, and the Duke was reluctant to kill her and turned her into a vampire. "

"Ai Meili, who likes the sun, can't see the light anymore. She doesn't want to drink blood, and has a deep hatred with Duke Dahl, and vows to kill him."

"That's how the story should be."

"As for whether the princess was born to him and Emily, it is not yet known."

"Yes, I agree." Boss Mei said.

Gu Liangdao: "In addition, there is a very important clue in this letter. Because the Duke drank a lot of human blood, he is powerful and not afraid of the sun. But this Ai Meili is afraid of light. The princess is not clear yet. Seeing the story of her drinking blood, it is assumed that she is also afraid of light, so only the Duke is not afraid of light."

"Agree." Li Xiaoyu thought for a while and asked, "It's just this clue, what is it related to?"

Gu Liang was thinking of Yang Ye at this moment.

Yang Ye, Earl William, did not receive the message that he was afraid of light.

Besides, when everyone left the castle to breathe, they just didn't dare to get close to the sports car, so as not to be illuminated by the car windows, but they didn't seem to be afraid of light.

There must be vampires in here.

But why are they not afraid of light?

Gu Liang had a very strange feeling in his heart, but he couldn't analyze it for the time being, so he could only say: "I don't know yet. But I think this should be a very important clue."

Speaking of this, Gu Liang looked at Li Xiaoyu: "The owner of this room is called Ai Meili, and your name is Ai Mama, and you two look exactly alike. But you said, you don't know about it at all?"

Li Xiaoyu shook her head: "I really don't know."

Immediately afterwards, the radio sounded. "Friendly reminder, there are still 10 minutes left for the first stage of exploration. Please go to the discussion room on the second floor, please do not delay the time. At 2:12, the system will announce the first stage of the voting task."

It was nearly 12 noon.Focus on the discussion room.

Seven players sat together, waiting for the system to broadcast.

Most of the players seemed to be sitting in a panic, because they didn't know what the first round of voting tasks were.

At 12 o'clock sharp, the system announcement finally rang.

"Ding dong. Hello, players! This time, we have set up staged exploration and staged voting."

"This setting is not to increase the difficulty, but to help players straighten out the logic, so that players can find the real culprit in the final stage!"

"This round of voting involves multiple issues. Each issue will be discussed for 15 minutes, and one-on-one time will not be allowed. Trust me, you actually don't have one-on-one time."

"Players can pick up the cards to answer the questions. After answering the questions, the system will immediately announce whether they are correct or not. However, the system will not announce the correct answers to the questions that the players answered incorrectly."

When Gu Liang heard this, he thought that the system might be right.

Setting up this link can indeed help players to some extent.

——For some questions, if everyone answers wrong, although the system does not announce the correct answer, it can at least help the player eliminate a wrong answer.

"After the voting session for each question is over, each player's choice will be announced on everyone's card page."

"In addition, some players have received the remaining side missions. Therefore, no rewards will be issued in the first stage. In the final part of the game, rewards and punishments will be settled uniformly."

"Are you ready? Then let's get started!"

"Please listen to the first question, wow, this is really a bonus question!"

"Question: Who is the person who brutally killed Yu Scumbag, Ai's best friend, and Mei Design?"

"Friendly reminder: time is limited, the topic is simple, you can reason with limited evidence, and you don't need to use your brain to spread your thinking."

"This tip applies to all subsequent questions."

"The timer starts! Please complete your vote in 15 minutes!"

After the broadcast.

Su Lan immediately said: "I know this. Me, Yang Ye, and this beautiful sister, we just went to the room of Mr. Rong on the 6th floor. There is a blank notebook in it. After drawing it with a pencil, you can see the words 'killing' The words 'them'."

"We discussed it and thought it was Mr. Rong who did it. He wanted to kill people and protect the reputation of Mingyuan Rong."

Gu Liang added: "I saw Yu scumbag's sports car just now, and the tire was flat. I also think it's Mr. Rong. Because only when he flattened Yu scumbag's tire can he persuade Yu scumbag to sit on it." Get in the business car arranged by him."

Sister Mei, who had always kept few words, also said: "I'm new to this script, and I don't know your previous situation. I originally thought...don't be so hasty, just rely on a piece of paper and an investigation of motives to lock in Boss Rong. But the system said a friendly reminder just now, and you can reason with limited evidence, so it should be him. Anyway, it’s not looking for the real culprit, it’s just a question.”

"Then I vote for him too!"

Li Xiaoyu rested her chin, "This question doesn't take 15 minutes... It would be great if I could move the time to other questions."

"Let you finish all the talking. I don't even have time to defend myself..."

Meng Qiancheng was speechless, "I'm afraid this sub-quest that I want to hide that I have killed someone is not poisonous. The system is unfair to me!"

15 minute later.

The voting interface for the first question appeared on everyone's cards.

Gu Liang should have just chosen "Boss Rong" and finished the job.

But at this moment, he discovered something - under Yang Ye's profile picture, his name was actually a question mark.

Among the options of suspects, there are Mr. Rong, Mama Ai, Mei Design, Boss Mei, Ming Actor, and Meng Tourist. Everyone has their avatars matching their names, and their names are well written, which completely matches their self-introductions.

Only Yang Ye's name is a question mark.

The system is really crazy.

Gu Liang frowned.

He felt that he and Yang Ye could not be blamed for their negligence.

They really didn't expect that there was almost no plot interpretation this time, and they started the first round of voting in this way, so that Yang Ye really didn't have much room to play.

The others obviously noticed this problem and all looked at Yang Ye.

System: "Congratulations everyone, you voted correctly! Boss Rong is the murderer who killed these three people."

"Please listen to the second question: Who is the murderer who killed the chef?"

Meng Qiancheng first looked at Yang Ye: "What do you mean by the question mark? You have white skin and a question mark in your name. Are you a vampire? Obviously, the vampire who killed the chef is you?"

Yang Ye adjusted his glasses, but his expression didn't change at all. "I'm not a murderer."

Li Xiaoyu also cast suspicious eyes on Yang Ye. "The system said, use limited clues to reason. Only you."

"Tsk." Yang Ye asked Li Xiaoyu, "Student Xiaoyu, what happened to the corpse in the coffin? Only you look the same as the duchess who is also a vampire. You may also be a vampire."

Li Xiaoyu: "..."

At this time, Boss Mei suddenly spoke up.

He took a deep look at Li Xiaoyu, and then looked at everyone: "I have something that I wanted to hide. Because it was my branch line, I said that I would help Mama Ai hide it. But I think, answering these questions correctly is right. Finding the real murderer is very helpful. So I decided to abandon the side missions and help everyone complete the main mission.”

"Mother Ai—"

Boss Mei looked at Li Xiaoyu again, "I don't actually know you. I am the boss of Pure Beauty Design. As I said, I came to ask her to go back to work and persuade her not to resign. I don't know why I When you meet you, you call me fiance."

"You are obviously my fiancé!"

Li Xiaoyu looked at Gu Liang for help, and then looked at Yang Ye, "I didn't mean to hate you just now, but you really look like a vampire, Mr. Yang Ye. Your skin is so white, and your name is still A question mark. But I really didn't lie!"

At this time, Gu Liang was actually caught in a dilemma, that is whether he should tell the story of him and Yang Ye being together.

If you say it, it's easy to expose the branch line; if you don't say it, everyone may suspect Yang Ye.

If everyone votes for Li Xiaoyu instead of Yang Ye, even if the answer is wrong in the end, for Gu Liang, at least one wrong option can be ruled out.But if he votes for Yang Ye, Gu Liang still can't rule out anyone.

Gu Liang frowned and thought for a moment, and when he had an idea, he immediately said, "Since there are multiple suspects, let's talk about the timeline. There are still 12 minutes left, so everyone will take 1 minute to briefly talk about it first."

Li Xiaoyu said first: "Let me tell you first! In case you suspect that I am imitating other people's timelines! I dare to be the first to say that I am definitely not a vampire!"

"I came here by taxi. When I approached the castle, there was thick fog. It wasn't the kind of murderous fog that restricted the venue in the game. It was the real white fog in nature. In my impression, the driver said that the castle was evil, Put me down and drove away by myself. I just walked around in the fog...At 8 o'clock, I wandered to the vegetable garden."

"Well, in the last script, Ai's best friend knew how to get from the vegetable garden to the castle. I don't know the character. I just wandered around in the vegetable garden. At 8:40, I met my fiancé, Boss Mei. He said he knew the way , let’s walk in the direction of the main entrance together.”

"When we arrived at the main entrance of the castle, it was almost 8:50, because at this time we heard the radio, the radio said it was 8:50, and it said that the chef was dead. So we walked through the lobby, towards the main hall and the back kitchen direction."

"It was almost 9 o'clock when the two of us arrived at the main hall."

After Li Xiaoyu finished speaking, she looked at Yang Ye: "It's your turn."

Yang Ye first asked Li Xiaoyu: "You said earlier that your fiancé came with you to find your daughter Ai's best friend. Why did you take a taxi here and meet him in the vegetable garden? Why did you stay in the vegetable garden for 40 minutes? This is enough for you From the direction of Taoyuan, go to the main hall through the west door, and then go to the back kitchen to suck blood."

"I don't know. The fog is a bit like a miasma. I just can't get out anyway. I'm really lost."

After Li Xiaoyu finished speaking, she sighed in her heart - why did she PK with Yang Ye?How could she beat it?

Boss Mei said at this moment: "Mother Ai's timeline overlaps a lot with mine, so let me continue."

"I arrived around 8:30. I came by car. I don't know if I can find my car in a while. Anyway, it was parked about 500 meters away from the vegetable garden. I also encountered thick fog, so I couldn't find it for a while. At the main entrance of the castle, I went to the vegetable garden first. At 8:40, I met Mama Ai, and the rest was the same as her. We arrived at the main hall at 9 o’clock together.”

After listening to his words, Yang Ye stretched lazily.

In fact, he really had no chance of cheating. He and Gu Liang arrived at the main hall at 9:40, and everyone was there at that time.

So he can only say that he arrived at the main entrance of the castle at 9:[-].

If you go any further, his arrival time may conflict with other players.

Yang Ye: "At 9:[-], I took a taxi and met a famous actor waiting for me at the door. Then we arrived at the main hall together."

Li Xiaoyu: "So simple?"

Yang Ye nodded: "It's that simple."

Hearing this, Gu Liang actually knew that his choice was the same as his own.

In this way, being able to know a rough timeline of everyone is actually considered a profit.

The game has just begun, and it's not yet time for them to expose the sidelines.

After listening to the timeline, think of a way to push it to the person with bigger loopholes, which should be able to clear Yang Ye's suspicion.

Sister Mei said next: "I also took a taxi. I also encountered fog and walked into the vegetable garden at 8:50. After hearing the broadcast, I walked towards the main entrance. When I arrived at the main entrance at 9 o'clock, I met Mr. Rong , and then came in with him. So the time when Mr. Rong and I arrived at the main hall was 9:10, 10 minutes later than Mama Ai and Boss Mei."

Brother Rong: "Since she mentioned me, let me tell you. I was driven back by the driver. Of course, when I was close to the castle, I also encountered fog. The driver couldn't see the road clearly, so I drove The car stopped about 300 meters away, and I walked over by myself. It was 9 o'clock when I arrived at the main gate of the castle. The rest of me was the same as Sister Mei."

"Then it's my turn."

Su Lan said, "Actually, I can summarize first. Mama Ai and Boss Mei arrived at the main entrance of the castle at 8:50, and at the main hall at 9:[-]. They were the first to see the corpse."

"Ten minutes later, at 10:9, Big Brother Rong and Sister Mei arrived at the main hall."

"At this time, I was at the gate of the castle. Ten minutes later, at 10:9, I came to the main hall."

"The last one is Ming Actor and—the question mark character. The two of them didn't arrive until 9:40."

Question mark character?

Gu Liang glanced at Su Lan, and then said lightly: "It's my turn. I have been sleeping until 8:50 when I was woken up by the system broadcast. I plan to take a shower before going to see the corpse."

During Gu Liang's pause, Meng Qiancheng smiled: "Yes, yes, I know you have a cleansing habit. Do you know—"

Meng Qiancheng looked at everyone: "In the last script, we are in a snow mountain. The mineral water provided by the system is placed in an insulated box, so it won't be frozen into ice, but if you take it out alone, it can't be taken far away. So you guys Guess what, when he went to the toilet, he specially brought a thermos just to wash his hands!"

Gu Liang continued calmly: "But there are bats in the bathroom of my room. I thought it would be inconvenient to go to the girl's room, and recalled that the room was unlocked when the scumbag left last night. So I went to his place .There are no bats in there and I can take a shower."

"After taking a shower, I arrived at the main entrance of the castle at 9:20. At this time, I didn't see the thick fog you mentioned."

"After waiting for 10 minutes, the taxi came, and my assistant, Assistant Wang, got out of it."

"Of course, I would add that the company said they would assign me a new assistant. But I haven't met the new assistant."

"So I'm not sure if this person with a question mark is really an assistant. The reason why his name is a question mark may indeed have another identity. But I did see him coming in a taxi at 9:20. The system said Don’t diverge your thinking. Then we shouldn’t overcomplicate things, such as he killed the chef, and then walked a long way to take a taxi or something, it’s impossible.”

"Therefore, I accept the inference that he might be a vampire."

"But even if he's a vampire, he's not the one who killed the cook. He doesn't have time for the crime."

Boss Mei glanced at the card now. "It's less than 2 minutes, everyone has to make a decision quickly."

Gu Liang thought for a while, and then said: "Mother Ai's story is indeed a bit bizarre, such as the corpse in the coffin, for example, she thinks Boss Mei is her fiancé, but Boss Mei doesn't know her, and she does have 40 minutes They are all in the vegetable garden, very suspicious."

"However, although she is suspicious, her timeline is the most detailed of all. Even if she knows that her timeline does not make sense, she dares to speak out. I don't think she is lying."

"Furthermore, there are actually four people whose timelines are too simple and vague, the question mark character, Mr. Rong, Dream Tourist, and Sister Mei. The question mark character can be ruled out from my perspective. Mr. Rong should not be a vampire, rule it out."

"Then, this should be a question of happiness. One of them is the real culprit, Mengyou and Meijie."

"Since Sister Mei mentioned that she had been to the vegetable garden at any rate. Dream Tourist directly said that he came to the castle. I might be inclined that Dream Tourist is the vampire who killed the chef."

"But no matter who they choose, it doesn't matter. Even if they choose the wrong one, one can be eliminated. Then the remaining one who was not selected has a high probability of being a vampire."

"The above are purely personal opinions."

After hearing this, Su Lan frowned and asked Gu Liang: "Why don't you talk about yourself? Your timeline is also very simple. You are the only one who stayed here all night. You are the most suspicious. You Maybe kill someone before going upstairs."

Gu Liang: "In your timeline just now, no one has used the elevator, right?"

"When I was about to go downstairs after taking a shower, I saw the elevator stop on the first floor. This can prove that I didn't go to the kitchen to kill someone and then go back to the room on the sixth floor, otherwise the elevator would stop on the sixth floor."

"Since none of you used the elevator this morning. It doesn't interfere with that conclusion."

Li Xiaoyu raised her hand instead: "I've noticed this! When I walked into the lobby at 8:50, I paid attention to the elevator. I went to the elevator to take a look. The elevator is on the first floor."

Gu Liang nodded to her: "Thank you."

Li Xiaoyu: "If you speak for me, I have to help you too. I'm really not a vampire! I didn't kill anyone! I can't tell my story clearly, but I really didn't lie!"

15 minutes is up.

Everyone's card interface is bright again.

After a while, the system said: "Let me announce the voting results for the second question!"

"Wow, the man with the question mark got 1 vote, Mama Ai got 1 vote, and Dream Tourist got 5 votes!"

The card interface then jumped out of the voting status of each player.

Meng Youyou, that is, Su Lan, voted for Yang Ye. It was voted for Butler Hao.

But what makes Gu Liang feel more fascinated is that Meng Qiancheng voted for Mama Ai.

"Why did you vote for me?" Li Xiaoyu gave Meng Qiancheng a questioning look.

Meng Qiancheng: "I hesitated for a while. Gu Liang did make sense. But your story is so strange! The lady's body is there, and this clue tells us that she didn't come back to life!"

"Only the coffins of the duke and the princess are empty. So, the ones alive in this story are the duke and the princess, a man and a woman, and two vampires."

"The question mark under Yang Ye's head portrait shows that he is a male vampire, and he is the duke who has done a lot of evil. Then the remaining woman is probably you, you are the princess who likes roses. If you lie in a coffin and like the corpse of sunflowers, then It's your mother. You have magic and can pretend to be your mother. That's why you two look the same."

Li Xiaoyu: "??? Why didn't I realize that your brain is so clear??"

Tsk, at the end of this stage, it feels like the boat of everyone's friendship is about to burst.

Gu Liang pressed his eyebrows.

"Ding Dong, please keep quiet!"

The system broadcast continued: "Meng Tourist got 5 votes. Is she the murderer who killed the chef? Congratulations! The vote is correct!"

After hearing this, Li Xiaoyu rolled her huge eyes at Meng Qiancheng.

Meng Qiancheng: "Hey, it's okay, it's okay, everyone voted right anyway. My vote doesn't affect the final result. At most, I won't be rewarded..."

System: "Next is the third question. Who is the murderer who killed Rong Mingyuan and Hao Butler?"

"Please make a choice in 15 minutes!"

Gu Liang actually wanted to wait for everyone to analyze first, and then he would speak last.

He doesn't want to make himself the center of attention.

Unable to bear Su Lan's revenge now, she took the initiative to ask him: "You are so good at analysis, then tell us, who is the murderer this time?"

Gu Liang raised his eyelids and looked at her quietly, without speaking.

Yang Ye said at this time: "Personal opinion, for this question, choose between sister Mei and boss Mei."

"In the last script, Mei Design said that she paid for the murder, that is, paying for the murder."

"Among us players, the only one who has something to do with Mei Design, knowing that she will go to the wedding, and who can instruct her to take the opportunity to kill people, can only be her sister or her boss."

"The boss said just now that he drove here by himself. Then he has the conditions to carry the tools of the crime. In addition, if he can kill Rong Mingyuan and Hao Butler at once, it is more likely that the murderer is a man. So I am more inclined Boss America."

"Similarly, we choose one at random, and it doesn't matter if it is wrong. Eliminate the wrong one, and the correct answer is the remaining one."

Speaking of this, Yang Ye looked at Gu Liang: "Liang Liang, what do you think?"

Gu Liang couldn't help but catch a glimpse of his eyes asking for credit.

After a while he finally said: "Agreed."

Fifteen minutes later, the system announced the voting results. Boss Mei got 15 votes and sister Mei got 6 vote.

Sister Mei's vote was undoubtedly cast by her boss.

The system announces the result: "Unfortunately, the answer is wrong."

Not Boss Mei?

Can sister Mei kill two by herself?

Gu Liang didn't have time to think, the broadcast continued.

"Next is the last question: Who is the vampire hidden among ordinary players?"

There is actually no objection to this question.

From the perspective of ordinary human beings, based on the current clues and the fact that the real culprit who killed the chef was Meng Tourist, Meng Qiancheng's analysis just now is actually reasonable-three coffins, two empty, and one with corpse.

Then, for the time being, the only vampires who can survive and come from time to time can only be the Duke and the Princess.

And so far, they have not found any clues about Earl William.

Then, they can only speculate that Yang Ye is the Duke of Dar, and Su Lan, who falsely claims to be Dream Tourist, is actually Princess Rose.

Gu Liang actually hesitated halfway through whether to continue to hide the branch line.

He finally chose to hide it.

Because he felt that even if he said that Yang Ye was the earl, it was still impossible to confirm who was the duke.

In addition to Yang Ye, there are two male characters.Excluding Mr. Rong, there is only one beautiful boss left.

But he thinks that it is possible that neither the boss nor the boss of the United States is the duke.

What kind of role the duke plays, we have to wait and see.

After 15 minutes, the system: "Wow, the question mark character and the dream tourist each got 7 votes. The question mark character? Dream tourist? You actually voted for yourself? Tsk tsk... so everyone answered correctly?"

"Unfortunately, the answer was wrong."

"Okay, four questions, two right and two wrong, everyone is still good!"

"The system has always treated players kindly. The men in black will deliver lunch and drinks to everyone later."

"It's 1 o'clock in the afternoon, everyone has an hour for lunch and a break."

"At 2 p.m., the second phase of exploration begins."

"The mighty Duke Dar loves his wife very much. But his wife died unexpectedly."

"Duke Dar very much wants to know who killed his wife."

"Please help the original owner of the castle!"

"Friendly reminder, the options for the second stage are not limited to players."

"Please work hard to solve the case and find the murderer who killed the Duchess 300 years ago!"

"The exploration time is 3 hours. At 5 pm, please return to the discussion room for discussion and voting."

"By the way, the name of this script is now announced—"The Folding Castle."

"Good luck with the game everyone!"

After the system finished speaking, the man in black brought lunch for everyone.

Meng Qiancheng first asked Su Lan: "Well... since you have been voted out, can you tell your story?"

Su Lan: "No. I don't want to say."

Meng Qiancheng: "Oh, don't be so hot-tempered. Everyone is doing missions. It doesn't matter if you failed the side mission. I also failed! Boss Mei also took the initiative to confess the side mission! Everyone works together to do the main mission. !"

Su Lan: "No comment. I don't want to say anything now."

Meng Qiancheng: "..."

After a while.

Yang Ye and Gu Liang were eating in the corner.

"Just after listening to the system broadcast, you look confident, what did you think of?" Yang Ye asked.

Gu Liangdao: "When I was looking at each room before, I had an idea. After listening to the system's announcement of the topic, I can almost confirm this idea."

"What kind of brain hole?" Yang Ye asked again.

Gu Liangdao: "The time and space 300 years ago and 300 years later have overlapped. But they are not completely overlapping. The title of the script this time is called Folding Castle. I think it is actually a folded time and space."

"The ancient castle is a space concept. In this space, there are two times, one is 300 years ago, and the other is 300 years later."

"I think the medium that folds the two time and space and makes them overlap... should be murals."

The author has something to say:

[Follow-up of yesterday's Brain Hole Theater]

When Yang Ye hugged Gu Liang and left, he heard the girls behind him talking a lot, probably discussing who would attack and who should suffer.

Yang Ye turned back alone and said, "That's right, I'm pure 1. Liangliang is my wife!"

Walking out of the restaurant, there was a fruit shop next to it. Yang Ye walked over to Gu Liang with his arms around him: "Daughter-in-law, what fruit do you want to eat? Husband will buy it for you!"

Gu Liang walked up to the boss and asked, "Are there any durians? I want some more. Please peel them for me, but I have to take the durian shells with me. There are other uses."
