"You don't have evidence, right?"

The Short and Fat player took a drag of his cigarette. Obviously, when he realized 1801 was silent, he knew it was in the bag.

He organized his wording in his mind.

"Do you know why I chose to co to 1801 blindfolded?"

"Of course, part of the reason is to guard against the possibility that you are: playing the role of Killer A in the plotline, and might ruthlessly attack ."

"But the main reason is..."

Speaking up to here, the Short and Fat player got stuck, and he reorganized his wording again: "The main reason is, at this mont, I am a bit unsure about the judgnt of a certain kind of lie."

"A certain kind of lie?" Li Jianguo looked at him with a half-smile. Obviously, he had also discovered the 【certain kind of lie】 within this earlier.

However, being blindfolded, the Short and Fat player didn't see Li Jianguo's current expression.

"How many households do you say there are on this floor in the plotline?"

This question made it difficult for Li Jianguo to answer for a mont.

Because, judging from the plotline, there should be a child, and the child lived with an adult.

And there were nine of them. If the child and adult lived in one household, didn't that an...

There were only eight households on this floor?

But, from an objective factual perspective, there were nine rooms on this floor, and only one person in each room. Then at the very beginning, before the plotline started, the residential situation...

There were two possibilities:

One: Among the nine rooms, one room was empty, with no one living in it.

Two: Spatial isolation!

Simply put, Killer A broke into Killer B's room. If these two people were placed in the sa room from the start, when Killer A deduced his own identity, he would kill Killer B at the first mont.

Therefore, to both place the two people in the sa room, and also avoid Killer A being instantly killed by Killer B at the start, the person who designed this plotline spatially isolated the two.

A one-to-one replica of Killer B's room was created. This way, Killer A was in Killer B's room, and Killer B was also in their own room. But spatially, they wouldn't encounter each other at the beginning, thereby avoiding the situation of Killer B being instantly killed by Killer A.

It's not over yet. Killer A left his own room and broke into Killer B's room. Then who occupied Killer A's room?

The answer is Killer C.

Killer BC lived in the sa room. When Killer A ca, Killer C ran out of the room and broke into Killer A's original room.

Not hearing Li Jianguo's answer, the Short and Fat player frowned slightly and said speechlessly: "Please give so response, otherwise it will be very hard for to continue the following words."

"I know what you an." Li Jianguo's response indicated that he had followed the Short and Fat player's train of thought and 【deduced】 the two possibilities for the existence of an extra room.

"Very good, we can continue our previous topic. In other words, there might be a problem with our numbers in the group chat."

"In the deduction, the adult and child who might exist in the plotline should live in the sa room. Then their numbers should be exactly the sa, or rather, only the adult has a number, and the child doesn't."

"The group chat is based on the residents' room numbers. Since the adult and child live in the sa room, then they should only have one number in the group."

"Whether the room is empty or spatially isolated, there should only be eight numbers. But there are nine numbers in the group."

Listening to the Short and Fat player repeatedly state the problem he had already deduced in his mind earlier, Li Jianguo lost his patience: "Make a long story short."

"From a deduction perspective, Killer C's number in the group chat in the plotline is wrong."

"But from an objective perspective, we didn't think it was wrong before."

"How should this be judged?"

The correct phrasing should be: How should this lie be judged?

But the Short and Fat player felt this shouldn't count as a lie. However, he remained cautious and chose the Avoidance of Lying, not saying the word 【lie】.

Li Jianguo frowned.

'I can understand what he ans.'

'Previously, when we were conversing in the corridor, because we didn't know each other's nas, we all referred to each other using our group chat numbers.'

'But, from a deduction perspective, there is a problem with the child's number among the nine people. The child simply shouldn't possess a number in the first place.'

'In other words, if the deduction is correct, we were all lying before.'

'But, from an objective factual perspective, we were certain we weren't lying.'

'Then the question arises...'

'Did we actually lie or not?'

'Judging from just now, the prohibition on lying follows the Liar-Detection Principle, which ans judging whether the other party is lying from objective facts.'

'And in objective facts, all nine people possess numbers, so it wasn't a lie.'

'Unless...'

'The objective facts are negated, which ans proving that the child indeed has no number.'

'It's just that...'

'Up until now, we still aren't certain who the child is. If we rashly prove that the child simply has no number, breaking this kind of lie that is the truth, then when speaking again, we can't use numbers to refer to soone, otherwise it will be very easy to inadvertently tell a lie.'

From a God's perspective, the child's number was a typical Deceiver's Tongue. His/her number belonged to soone else. Once the Deceiver's Tongue was broken, using a number to refer to soone again would be telling a lie.

Li Jianguo frowned in deep thought.

'I am Killer A who broke into soone else's room, then my number...'

'Is not 1801!'

Thinking of this, he unexpectedly felt a chilling sensation lingering in his heart.

'A blunder!!!!'

At this mont, the hand he was holding the cigarette with was trembling. Because, speaking from general Common Sense, he knew at the very first mont that his number was not 1801. If in the previous conversations, if he had said...

Words like 【I am 1801】.

Then, he would have definitely lied.

From a God's perspective, if Li Jianguo had said 【I am 1801】, then he would have constructed a Deceiver's Tongue, and he would also be the active party constructing the Deceiver's Tongue. Once the Deceiver's Tongue was broken, the 【I am 1801】 he said previously...

Would turn into a lie.

So, Li Jianguo closed his eyes and carefully recalled the words he had spoken before.

A long while later.

He finally confird that whether it was in the corridor before or in the conversation just now, he had not said anything like 【I am 1801】.

'What a sinister ga!'

'First, there's a problem with the announcent, secondly, there's a problem with the numbers, and it's also filled with massive amounts of unknown information, as well as the prohibition on lying. This setup is trying to pitch people into a deadly trap!'

The gold content of the text ssage 【Do not reveal your identity and past】...

Was still rising!

It was exactly because of the existence of this text ssage that everyone had not said things like their number being XXX.

Li Jianguo could even imagine, if they hadn't lost their mories, how high must their IQs have been?

Moreover, he felt that the person who designed this Plot Simulation should have designed it while not having lost their mory. Their goal was to make everyone die here.

The sinister degree of this person was simply unimaginable. Perhaps this was a ga, they were Players participating in the ga, and the person who designed the ga was the organizer.

Retracting his wandering thoughts, Li Jianguo looked at the blindfolded Short and Fat player again.

'He shielded the information in Room 1801 by blindfolding himself, out of fear that that kind of special lie would be seen by him, resulting in it being broken?'

'But why would he do this?'

'Logically speaking, once that kind of lie is broken, it is also broken objectively.'

'Simply put, if one person breaks it, the kind of special lie existing on everyone will be broken at the sa ti.'

'And the person who broke it inside knows the special lie was broken, while the people outside wouldn't know the special lie was broken at all.'

'This could catch them off guard.'

'Oh, I rember now. They wanted to target the person at a disadvantage in the rules, which ans targeting . But they don't know that the person to be targeted is . Therefore, when the Short and Fat player confirms he is not the person being targeted, he won't voluntarily go and break this kind of special lie.'

'Brilliant!'

'Brilliant!'

'Worthy of the style of the School of Military Strategems, Plan First, Fight Later. I was being led around by the nose.'

Because this was originally the room Li Jianguo first appeared in, even if he saw the scene inside, it would be impossible for him to break that kind of special lie. But if the Short and Fat player saw it, there might be a risk of it being broken, and the 【teammates】 outside might be in danger.

Therefore, the Short and Fat player simply blindfolded himself directly. Even if Li Jianguo wanted him to break it, he couldn't see, so he couldn't break it.

Thinking of this.

Li Jianguo's expression was peculiar, thinking whether he should tear off the black cloth on the Short and Fat player's face.

But, he considered that the reason the Short and Fat player explained these deductions was highly likely probing his identity. After all, if he was a civilian and not the person being targeted, he wouldn't go and tear off the black cloth on the Short and Fat player's face. Only Killer A in the plotline would do this.

Moreover, even if he tore off the black cloth, the Short and Fat player could also choose to close his eyes.

'I seem to have fallen into a misconception. Since I am being targeted by them, then I should be the strongest among the nine people.'

'Judging from everything previously, everyone's IQs are about the sa. The question is...'

'Where am I stronger than them?'

'Wait!'

'Just now, when Big Gold Tooth died, I seed to be able to control my free will...'

As the saying goes, Trying to Steal a Chicken Only to Lose One's Rice.

The Short and Fat player probably never dread that the indecisive Li Jianguo was about to go offline. The one walking towards them next would be...

Absolutely rational, and the indecisive Li Jianguo optimized under an absolutely rational state to be able to consider all aspects.
