Chapter 264: Clues from all parties gathered
As soon as Wu Rui finished speaking, everyone looked at her.
"Ms. Wu, this is no joke." Fatty Qian reminded.
He obviously didn't believe it.
Ke Lan also looked suspicious.
On the other hand, Mao Ge and Guo Zening, the two of them knew Wu Rui better and knew that the other party would not be joking about this kind of thing. If she said she had seen it before, it would most likely be true.
"I have indeed seen it. To be precise, I have seen this kind of thing in Lu Ting's hand." Wu Rui took the ticket from Ke Lan's hand and looked at it front and back. He took a closer look and confirmed, "It is indeed this thing. Although I only glanced at it at the time, One glance, but this kind of blood-red bill is rare, so the memory is still fresh, so there should be no mistaking it."
Lv Ting, Wu Rui's mentor, was in the initial level of 'Working for a Day'. In the scene, he taught her many basic knowledge about the day of confinement.
Of course, Luo Xi discovered afterwards that this Lu Ting should be the one who came to 'monitor' him, but from some clues, he knew that the other party may not be an enemy, because he was monitoring him at the time and even planned to 'do something' to Luo Xi. Lu Ting was not the only one who killed Luo Xi. She also killed a Memory Picker killer who tried to kill Luo Xi.
"Wu Rui, you said that you spent three consecutive days in the company with Lu Ting. Then when did you see this bloody note?" Luo Xi asked.
"The last time, actually, ten minutes before she said she was going to give up, I went to find her and found her staring blankly at the note. When I approached, she hurriedly put the things away. But I still see it clearly." Wu Rui was very sure.
Lu Ting, the guide, was very important to her, so she remembered the details of the time very clearly.
"At that time, she lingered outside at the entrance of the corridor for a long time. I noticed something was wrong, so I called her, and then she told me that she had given up and was leaving." Wu Rui had a strange expression.
After knowing the rules of the ‘Fairy Tale Town Admission Ticket’, she naturally thought of a possibility.
Lu Ting may not have wanted to leave at that time.
But because of some kind of 'accident', the monitoring of Luo Xi had to be interrupted.
Thinking of this, Wu Rui's scalp felt numb.
The real situation may be much more complicated than she imagined.
"Did you notice anything unusual at that time, or did you see a transparent person wearing clothes?" Luo Xi continued to ask.
According to Wu Rui's story, Lu Ting should have accidentally met the mayor at that time, and was forcibly given an 'admission ticket'.
Normal people who collect memories cannot refuse this kind of 'gift'.
Lu Ting must have been aware of this problem at the time, so after careful consideration, she made up a temporary lie that she 'gave up' because she was 'tired'.
Logically speaking, this lie should be very clumsy, but why did Wu Rui not have any doubts at the time, and not only did she believe it, but she was still immersed in emotion and gratitude.
This is indeed abnormal.
But if this speculation is true, it will lead to many other problems, and these problems are very difficult to explain.
For example, how did the ‘town mayor’ end up ‘beating workers for a day’?
"As for the mayor's whereabouts, has there been any mention of the pattern of his appearance in various rumors? Or, what conditions need to be met for it to appear?" Luo Xi squinted, although these questions were one by one. are emerging, but various clues are also gathering quickly.
Why did the mayor appear in the scene of "Working for a Day" and was summoned? Or did it go by itself?
Also, if the mayor appeared in the initial scene of "Working for a Day", why did he only give Lu Ting an admission ticket? Could it be that the mayor is discriminating against newcomers?
According to the rules of this initial scene, a new memory collector will be generated every time. If there are multiple memory collectors but only one of them is chosen, then the mayor's behavior is too obvious.
The mayor, or someone who summoned the mayor, obviously wanted to get rid of Lu Ting, so he was so targeted.
Based on this possibility and working backwards, we will come to the conclusion that Lu Ting, the memory collector, is very powerful and very important at the same time.
“Interesting!”
Luo Xi has calculated several possibilities, and no matter which one it is, the final result points to one person.
Just himself.
"So, I have to go to Fairy Tale Town." Thinking of this, Luo Xi changed into a set of clothes from the closet in this room, a very new black suit and white shirt, which made him see He looked a little more mature and steady than usual, especially with his special temperament, which made him look very different from usual.
"A man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. You look much more handsome in this suit." Wu Rui couldn't help but swallowed her saliva. She stared straight at it, not even a little bit. Conceal your thoughts.
"Fat man!" Luo Xi glanced at Fatty Qian, who immediately stepped forward: "Luo Ju, you command, go up the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of fire, I will never blink an eye."
"You go. Time Conference, try your best to find out as much information as possible about Fairy Tale Town. No matter whether it is true or false, synchronize the information to our discussion group. When necessary, you can use cards to exchange information. " Luo Xi. At this time, he took out a stack of cards and handed them over.
Quite a few.
“I understand, leave this matter to me.” Fatty Qian nodded, looking eager to try.
"You may not be able to do it alone, Guo Zening, you and Fatty are together." Luo Xi added.
"Okay." Guo Zening nodded immediately.
"Also, think about it, is there any way to bring this dog back to life, or maybe not to 'resurrect' it in the strict sense." Luo Xi pointed at the dog he brought back Watchdog corpse.
"Boss, I really know a way to do this. There is a level scene not far from here. After passing the level, there is a probability of getting a card called [Undead]. This kind of card can transform corpses into undead, but only It can take effect within one cycle day. Undead creatures are almost the same as when they were alive, and their memories and abilities can be inherited."
The speaker was Ke Lan.
Luo Xi nodded: "Brother Mao, Wu Rui, come with me and follow Ke Lan to that scene first."
After the plan is formulated, the next step is to execute it.
Fatty Qian and Guo Zening rushed to the Time Assembly Center together. Luo Xi, the others and Ke Lan took the watchdog corpse to attack [Undead].
On the way, Ke Lan explained the situation of that level scene in the car.
“That level scene is open all day long. The mechanism is not complicated, but it contains great dangers. If you are not careful, you may be damaged inside. Moreover, the card [Undead] is not used every time. can appear." Ke Lan told what he knew: "I tried to conquer it once before, but taking into account the cost issue, I did not succeed in the challenge. After I figured out that this level scene was actually very deceptive, I stopped going there. However, it is said that there are some memory collectors who specifically attack this scene, and they probably went there for [Undead]. If I can exchange with these veterans, With some information, things will be simpler."
"If necessary, we will not refuse this method," Luo Xi said.
Ke Lan then quickly explained the challenge process of that level scene.
“It is a box-guessing game. It is played by a single player. No one else is allowed to help. Finding the box containing the 'big prize' from the nine boxes is considered as passing the level. Cards can be obtained randomly. [Undead] may appear in the card.”
"There are three types of boxes, 'Jackpot Box', 'Trap Box' and 'Empty Box'."
"To open the box, you need to spend one [Memory], but if the total number of boxes is reduced, then open it The [memory] cost of the box will be doubled; purchase prompts are allowed in the game, but the prompts will not point to which box If there is a big prize, there will only be some general tips, for example, "In which box will the big prize not be in" this kind of tip, purchase tips also need to spend [memory]; you can also choose to spend [memory] to exclude an 'empty box' ', of course, the cost of excluding empty boxes will also double with the number of times. The more troublesome thing here is 'trap' Trap Box', because once the 'Trap Box' is accidentally opened, 'death' may appear inside, which means that you will be killed directly. There are also other traps, such as: blindness, amputated fingers, or slightly better, Can impose negative statuses such as 'Double selection cost next round', and 'Complete all boxes immediately' The result of 'zi', that is to say, if you draw this trap box after spending a lot of money to eliminate the number of boxes until there are only three or four left, then the number of boxes will be replenished to nine. It belongs to one night to return The kind before liberation!”
Ke Lan explained the rules of that level scene as comprehensively as possible.
Luo Xi listened carefully.
In the car, other people were also listening carefully to the rules of this scene.
By the time Ke Lan finished speaking, Brother Mao was still digesting and understanding, while Wu Rui had a quick mind and already understood the core of the game.
“In other words, if we want to get [Undead], just clearing the level once is not enough, because even if we clear the level, it is only possible to draw [Undead].”
“That’s right. , so when the time comes, each of us Everyone participates, so if you pass the level, the probability of drawing [Undead] is higher. According to the information I know, the probability of drawing [Undead] is about one-third."
"Three points One of them is not too small. If three of us pass If it is closed, the possibility of at least one person obtaining [Undead] will be very high.”
“However, it is not that simple to find the [Grand Prize] box at a relatively small cost, even if we do not consider [ Memory] The cost of the card, first If all the 'empty boxes' are eliminated, there will inevitably be a few 'trap boxes'. If you choose the wrong one, you will be in a negative state, or you will lose all your efforts to complete the box, or in the worst case, you will lose your limbs or even lose your life!" Ke Lan was less optimistic about the matter.
Because he had participated in this game and was relatively familiar with the mechanics, he knew that this level was definitely not that easy to pass.
