Absurd Deduction Game Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Alice Hell (5) - Corpse Researcher

The taste was very light at first. After Yu Xing caught it and he concentrated his attention, the taste became stronger and stronger.

It is a bit pungent, mixed with the smell of preservatives, fresheners and other chemicals. It is even a bit familiar to Yu Xing.

His brows under the mask frowned: "Did you smell it?"

"What is this?" The gambler paused when he heard this. Hearing his discovery, he tried to smell it, "It doesn't smell like anything."

“No, there is.” Yu Xing relaxed his brows and looked around.

From the observation deck, he could barely see the outlines of all the surrounding buildings, and a nerve in his mind was touched by the smell: "It's the smell of a potion."

As soon as he finished speaking, a scratching sound suddenly came from the third floor corridor on the right side of the observation deck and on the other side of the kitchen.

The gambler immediately reacted quickly and squatted down, covering his body behind the fence, and looked through the gap in the fence towards the place where the sound was made - in fact, this could not hide his figure, but it was not a completely useless effort.

When he glanced at his temporary companion from the corner of his eye, he found that Xing's reaction was no slower than his. He had already hid in the corner of the observation deck where he was least visible to the left and right sides. Only the tail of one eye was exposed behind the crescent-shaped hole in the mask. The upturned phoenix eyes reflected the pale golden light in the light.

“Squeak—” Another unpleasant scratch brought the gambler's attention back. This time he also smelled the smell of the potion that Yu Xing mentioned, and had the illusion that he was in a chemistry laboratory.

The scratching sound was very regular, like a piece of hard metal scratching against the wall as something moved forward.

Yu Xing covered his throat in discomfort. Smelling the smell, he roughly knew whose corresponding ghost was walking in the corridor on the third floor opposite.

Probably his own.

As soon as he finished his thoughts, a huge figure slowly walked out from the shadows on the opposite side.

The entire third floor is an arc-shaped structure, and the walls sometimes disappear. At this time, what can be seen in the outline of the observation deck is a semicircular corridor, which is usually covered by walls, leaving only a half-person-high fence in half, which is convenient. Visitors look around the kitchen on the second floor from the third floor.

An object walked from the shadow behind the wall to a place shrouded in dim light. This process was quite shocking, at least it made the gambler whisper "tsk tsk", and Yu Xing also raised his eyebrows.

The first thing that appeared in their sight was a thick pipe, the color of which was unclear, flying in the air at a semi-circular angle, squirming slightly, like a living thing.

The outside of the pipe is actually covered with a layer of sharp metal teeth. The scratching sound must be caused by the sharp teeth colliding with the wall.

After that, a muscular zombie over two meters tall wearing a white coat walked out in a matter of seconds. Its appearance is extremely ugly, its body proportions are unbalanced, a pair of shoulder blades protrude exaggeratedly, its limbs are extremely thick, and its muscles are vertical and horizontal. Many blood vessels just grow outside the skin. You can see the movement of its blood vessels and tendons without taking a step. .

The metal-like pipe grows on the back of the big zombie, making its already burly body even bigger.

Yu Xing estimated that one of the zombie's arms might be as thick as his waist. This thing is different from the cryer. It is full of intimidation and extremely dangerous at first glance. It can knock out the brains of people with one slap. .

【You discovered the "Ghost Researcher", the ghost notice has been updated】

Zombie researcher…

Yu Xing curled his lips, and his guess was confirmed.

This is indeed his corresponding ghost. The old-fashioned white coat on the big zombie is exactly what those people in the actor's research institute who point outside his container all day long wear.

The pipe was the huge pipe used to transport the breath that transformed his body, and the smell of the potion was what he smelled all the time when he was soaked in the glass container - he was wrapped in the light red chemical liquid, except for the Apart from taking him out to cut slices, draw blood, and perform physical examinations, he was never separated from the liquid surrounding him for a moment.

No wonder it smells familiar... Even though many years have passed, smelling this smell again easily brings back Yu Xing's memory.

"I smell it..." While the two deducers were secretly prodding and observing, the zombie researcher suddenly opened his mouth, his voice was dull and rich, with a self-mixed sound.

The gambler was startled: "Oh my god, such a powerful thing, can't it still be sane? What kind of **** could come up with such a thing? This is too perverted!"

I don't know whether he meant that the Resentment Researcher looked abnormally strong or that the person he corresponded to was abnormal. Yu Xing touched his nose, as if he had been reprimanded.

The next moment, the Resentful Corpse researcher turned his head towards the observation deck and shouted: "I smell it! The smell of experimental products! Two!"

This time, Yu Xing could clearly see its face that he had not looked at carefully just now.

This face... is a very unique face.

The top of the head is bald and covered with sarcoma. There are only black holes left in the eyes. It seems that someone has dug them blind. There is no trace of human beings under the eyes. There are no noses and ears at all. The place where the nose was originally has turned into pieces. The piece of flesh is connected to the rest of the face.

The mouth has no lips, only sharp teeth are left, which are stained with blood and fleshy foam, as if they have just eaten.

Its neck is also very thick, swollen to the same diameter as its head. All in all, this is a very deformed and strong zombie. Not to mention that it cannot resist its danger in this game, even if other gamers use it When it comes to props, you may not dare to stand in front of them.

Yu Xing was silent for a moment, then stood up in response to the "eyesight" cast by the corpse researcher.

The gambler looked at him with a strange look behind his crooked smile: "Oh? You are very brave, brother."

The next second, Yu Xing stumbled forward, and suddenly felt dizzy and his eyesight turned black.

—I hid too quickly just now, but now I got up and forgot that I was anemic for a moment.

The resentful corpse was still howling. It became excited when it smelled the two experimental products, but did not react at all to Yu Xing who stood up.

Yu Xing waited for the dizziness to subside, shook his head, and shouted at it with a higher pitch: "I'm here!"

"Experimental subject, the experimental subject escaped, I want to catch the experimental subject..." The researcher turned a deaf ear and lowered his voice, as if he was mumbling to himself.

Then, it shook the pipe on its body left and right, its sharp teeth hit the ground, and a few debris popped out of the floor.

It "looked" in the direction of the observation deck for a while, then ran away with heavy steps, as if it was planning to catch someone.

“Holy shit?” The gambler looked at the direction it was leaving and hurriedly pulled Yu Xing down from the observation deck. “It's not here. Does the ghost in the castle know the way?”

"Probably... we don't know each other. Otherwise, we can easily be seen by ghosts wandering far away. They all know the way. Wouldn't it be easy to chase us? And we don't even know where they will come out." Yu Xing shook his head, looked at the gambler and said, "They should be like us, they also need to find a way for a long time. And I just tried it. The researcher of the zombies has no vision and hearing. He probably only relies on the sense of smell to move. The so-called coping tools may be Something that can mask its sense of smell. " ˜ It's very possible, good guy, you're coping well. As a newcomer, you have great potential!" The gambler patted Yu Xing's shoulder happily, and he didn't look too much. With a panicked look, maybe even if Yu Xing didn't say anything, the gambler would have already reached the same conclusion from Yu Xing's behavior just now and the reaction of the corpse.

“Your handling method is very suitable to my taste. I don't know if you have watched my live broadcast. Like you, I like to seek death!”

Yu Xing: "...Haha, senior's deduction style is unique, and I like it too~"

He really hasn't seen it. Not only has he not seen it, he has never even heard of the gambler's name.

But he was not seeking death, he was just using the complex terrain of the castle to make a relatively safe verification.

I don't know where the Resentment Research Institute went. After Yu Xing finished dealing with the gambler, he and the gambler continued to move forward, while opening the ghost notice and taking a look.

【Ghost 4: Resentful Corpse Researcher】

【Corresponding tourist: Xing】

　　【Description/Source: 1. A strong and deformed corpse, full of resentment, wearing a uniform from a certain research institute, with an attack pipe behind it. 2. It regards living people as experimental subjects and is extremely cruel. No one has ever seen its attack mode. 3. It comes from Xing's past. When Xing was used as an experimental subject by a researcher, he accumulated resentment in his heart. After he killed the researcher, his disgust at the gaze of the research institute caused the resentful zombie to lose his eyesight and evaluate him as much as the researchers evaluated their objects. He was so ashamed of his behavior that he lost his hearing. In addition, due to Sachi's curiosity about what is on the other side of the pipe, the wraith has a special ability. (Since Xing is the corresponding deducer of the Resentful Corpse researcher, the source analysis has been directly provided)]

【Attack method/Special ability:? ? ? 】

【Solution:? ? ? 】

【Notification progress: 50%】

This ghost was ranked No. 4. Yu Xing didn't know what standard this was based on, but thanks to the personal version of the ghost notice, a lot of information was directly open to him.

But...the clarity of this analysis was beyond Yu Xing's expectation, and it can be said to be very to the point.

If others can know the source analysis by getting the corresponding props, it seems a little bad to him, and I believe the other seven people will think so too.

If you want to protect the secret in your own hands from being discovered by others, you must get your own corresponding props, but the props are useless in your own hands, which is equivalent to even if you get the props, the deducer's disadvantage against the ghosts is also There will be no relief at all.

He had thought before that if one person gets a prop and passes it to someone else, wouldn't both of them have collected information about ghosts? If a team appears in the castle at this moment, they can use this to score points.

Now he knows that giving props to others is also a matter of courage, because the things he has done, or the things he does not want to mention deep down in his heart, will be completely exposed in front of others, many of which are the most intimate. Teammates are also not allowed to know.

The purpose of Alice Hell is as naked and sinister as ever, it is to force the deducers to make choices and pay for what they have done.

In this way, everyone has to face complex choices.

Yu Xing suppressed what he was thinking and continued to do what he came out to do. He walked with the gambler for another six or seven minutes, during which he didn't encounter any ghosts.

He noted down the roads he passed along the way, and drew a three-dimensional map in his mind based on the scenes he could see from other floors from time to time.

The map was successfully established with the third floor as the main body and other floors as auxiliary ones.

At this moment, the gambler slapped him: "What are you thinking about, little brother, look at the front, the bathroom, and the stairs!"

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows and looked forward.

The entire journey did not end in one corridor. They passed several small paths and decided to continue walking along the main corridor.

Ahead, this main corridor truly bifurcates for the first time, splitting into two equally wide corridors.

There is a sign in the middle of the corridor. The sign in the right corridor says "Bathroom", and the sign on the left says "Up to the fifth floor" and "Down to the second floor."

The two looked at each other, and Yu Xing said: "Would you like to go to the bathroom first and take a look? Is there any danger?"

"Go in and have a look. I bet it's not fatal. You have to be brave." The gambler waved his hand and walked to the corridor leading to the bathroom. Yu Xing looked at his back and narrowed his eyes slightly, then raised his legs and followed superior.

The style of the bathroom fits well with the rest of the castle, showing a strong medieval classic style.

There is a fork in the outermost road, and the men's and women's bathrooms are separate. Yu Xing followed the gambler into the men's bathroom and saw the bathtub in the middle of the bathroom at a glance.

The bathing pool is round in shape and has a diameter of four meters. It is considered a medium-sized pool. There are white towels neatly placed beside the pool.

It is not bathing time now, there is no water, so the luxury of the whole bath is more vividly reflected.

The bottom of the pool was actually inlaid with gems, both red and blue. This made Yu Xing extremely doubtful that the small ruby he picked up was really so important. It was worthy of Alice, who had a "rich family", to remember it for so long.

There is a wooden bathtub next to the bathtub, which is similar in shape to the one Yu Xing saw in the Bloody Mary room on the second floor of Sheqing Bar. It can only accommodate one or two people.

Looking further to the side, there are rows of wooden cabinets, probably used to store the clothes changed by tourists. Yu Xing casually opened a half-covered door and took a look inside. He didn't see any clothes, only a pool of blood.

“There is blood.”

Yu Xing called the gambler to take a look, and the gambler stood by another open wardrobe and spread his hands: "I know, I have some here too."

Turning around again, the gambler tapped his fingers on his pants: "The cabinets that can be opened are all bloody, and there are exactly eight cabinets that cannot be opened."

what does it mean…

I don't know what the blood in the wooden cabinet is for, maybe it's hinting at something, but there is too little information at the moment, and Yu Xing can't tell.

And it may be that the bathroom is closely connected to water, and water is yin. Just standing here, both of them felt the cold air, as if there was an intuition urging them not to stay here for too long.

“Let's go,” said the gambler.

Yu Xing nodded. As soon as the two stepped out of the bathroom, they heard the voices of other deducers.

It's the end of the month, and all the monthly votes have been voted in. It's a pity that they expire and become invalid (////)
