Chapter 393: 393: Seeing the White Glove Again
There were doubts, questions, and persistent confusions that couldn’t be sorted out.
“How did they die?”
“Didn’t they use any props?”
“Aqiang brought so many props with him. How could he have died?!”
“Exactly! Even if he died, it shouldn’t have happened so quickly!”
Regarding these questions, the man could only weakly shake his head, responding, “The cat was too powerful… too fast, no one could react in time…”
He started coughing quietly as if he was really weak.
A few staff members came forward to maintain order and took the man away for questioning. Finally, the commotion and chaos at the scene gradually subsided.
Bai Youwei watched as the man retreated, a sneer curling her lips. “He’s lying.”
Yu Yaqing was taken aback upon hearing this. “Why do you say that?”
“The 21st game is hide-and-seek, I’ve read about it. The game requires at least ten participants, and once inside, players need to find a place to hide, to avoid getting caught.” Bai Youwei turned to her and asked, “Do you think the players would all hide in the same spot?”
Yu Yaqing frowned, “Of course they would spread out and hide.”
Bai Youwei, “Since they would disperse, how could he possibly know that all the others are dead?”
Yu Yaqing was struck dumb.
“Yes, that’s right.” Yan Qingwen nodded thoughtfully, “Leaving the game using the puzzle piece would only happen when faced with extreme danger with no other means of survival. There’s no way in such circumstances someone could keep an eye on what’s happening to the other players unless all those ten people stayed together the whole time.”
Unable to hold it back, Lun Ang commented: “Maybe when he came out, he saw the others’ dolls, so he assumed they all were killed in the game.”
“If that’s the case, there is still a contradiction.” Shen Mo reminded Lun Ang calmly,”He said earlier that it was due to the cat’s ‘fast speed’, while all ten players were scattered, how would he know their cause of death? Also, when so many people came up to question him earlier, he didn’t panic at all. A normal reaction would be to deny and say he didn’t know anything.”
A scornful smile tugged on Bai Youwei’s lips: “That man is definitely implicated in the deaths of those nine people. Either he killed them directly, or he indirectly set a trap for them.”
“Why would he do that?!”
Yu Yaqing, already believing in Bai Youwei’s deductions, couldn’t help but ask:
“What was the purpose of killing nine people and wasting an opportunity with the puzzle piece?!”
Zhu Shu was also confused, wondering aloud, “If it was just for murder, there was no need to do it in the game…”
“Who knows~” Bai Youwei shrugged nonchalantly, “I do have a piece of advice for you. After joining the review team, if you come across the man who was wearing white gloves earlier, keep your distance. Don’t join the same team as him.”T/his chapter is updat/𝓮d by n𝒐v(ê(l)biin.c/o/m
Yan Qingwen gazed at the retreating figure, squinting minutely. “…it’s certainly strange. It’s never wrong to be cautious.”
“Indeed, his white gloves were very odd,” Zhu Shu added.
Almost everyone had taken note of the white gloves.
The incongruity was glaring.
Yu Yaqing had another concern, “If even such a large group of experts couldn’t clear game number 21, in 7 days time the city area will become a danger zone. Then, the base will have to be relocated to another place.”
She pursed her lips and turned to the others, “I need to go to headquarters, I’ll be leaving first!”
Yu Yaqing left in a hurry.
Watching her leave from the entrance gate, everyone’s thoughts varied.
Lun Ang asked Yan Qingwen, “Should we still apply for the assessment team?”
“Let’s wait for some news.” Yan Qingwen pulled out a cigarette and lit it with a nonchalant tone, “If we have to relocate the base, there’s no point joining the review team now.”
