There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 700 - 601: Don’t you want experience points?
Chapter 700: Chapter 601: Don’t you want experience points?
The bar was really quiet.
It wasn’t to the extent of hearing a pin drop, but it was as if the crows and sparrows had been silenced, no one daring to crack wise under such a heavy atmosphere.
Especially with a gun pointed right at them.
And beside them was a corpse with eyes wide open in death, several officers were examining the body, and the sll of gunpowder still lingered in the bar.
In such an eerie atmosphere,
Miss Jenny actually proposed having a drink.
...
This…
This was really…
This was just too naive!
Miss Jenny was indeed that pure goddess oblivious to the ways of the world. She knew nothing, rely an innocent who loved to have fun!
Certain dim-witted gazes had already started to heat up.
Xu Shuo found it strange too. He looked at Jenny, but she just smiled back at him, her smile beautiful.
After a long pause, Xu Shuo said expressionlessly, “I don’t wish to treat you to a drink, Miss Jenny, and I don’t think this is a good ti for that either.”
Jenny heard this, but wasn’t angry.
Still smiling, she just sighed with regret, “Alright then, can I leave? I want to go sowhere else for a drink.”
A beauty sighing, tugs at the heartstrings.
The onlookers in the distance hesitated with their words.
Xu Shuo spoke indifferently, “No, you don’t have the freedom to move about at present, not until we have investigated this matter thoroughly.”
Jenny tilted her head, “Why not?”
Xu Shuo, “Because I suspect you’re the murderer.”
Jenny, “Am I the murderer?”
Xu Shuo, “These deaths all have sothing to do with you.”
Jenny, “Do they have sothing to do with ?”
Just before their repetitive behavior could start again,
The bar owner suddenly ca forward, patted Jenny’s shoulder, and said in a low voice, “Miss Jenny, these are n from the Police Inspectorate, it’s best you listen to them for now.”
Jenny turned to look at him and obediently nodded her head.
Xu Shuo examined the interaction between the two, his lips curling into an interested smile.
After the bar owner comforted Jenny, he sneaked a glance at Xu Shuo, only to et his gaze, and then gave a sowhat sheepish smile.
But as he was pondering his next move, Xu Shuo didn’t press on about his relationship with Jenny.
Instead, he turned to look at the lounge area of the bar.
With just one sweep of his glance,
All those n itching to play the hero and rescue the damsel instantly cooled down, unanimously avoiding his gaze, not daring to look at him.
Only then did Xu Shuo withdraw his gaze and continue speaking to Mr. Lei, “Therefore, for your safety, I hope Mr. Lei can cooperate with the investigation of the Police Inspectorate, and give us a truthful account of your itinerary during this ti.”
The transition to this subject seed seamless, as if there were no issues at all.
Mr. Lei had been scanning Miss Jenny’s figure. Hearing the voice, he then responded, “Oh, I’ve been chasing Miss Jenny recently.”
“We are all aware that you’re chasing Miss Jenny.”
Xu Shuo said coolly, “So if Mr. Lei can’t provide any substantial information, I’ll have a hard ti not suspecting you…”
“Ah, alright, alright!”
Mr. Lei, looking overwheld, reclined onto the sofa, “Stop suspecting , Inspector Berrod, I’ll just talk to you seriously.”
He then suddenly sat up from the sofa.
Leaning in towards Xu Shuo, he whispered in his ear, “I can give you any information you want, but in return, shouldn’t you give sothing?”
Xu Shuo glanced down at him, “Like what?”
“Like taking responsibility for my safety from now on?”
“The Police Inspectorate naturally will…”
“No, no, no, no~”
Mr. Lei shook his finger and smiled, “What I want is for Inspector Berod personally to take care of my safety.”
Xu Shuo looked at him silently.
Not wanting the entire Police Inspectorate’s power but insisting on Inspector Berrod’s personal protection, Xu Shuo couldn’t help but suspect that this guy had realized sothing.
Of course, it seed there wasn’t much to hide anyway.
So, was Mr. Lei’s mission related to the crisis?
Possibly.
After all, from the very beginning, this character appeared as a semi-victim, and from the current information all around, the killer was very likely after Mr. Lei this ti.
So, if there was a first, there could be a second.
Mr. Lei isn’t dead yet, so the murderer will most likely strike again.
What’s worse, the main task Mr. Lei received is probably in opposition to another player.
If Xu Shuo agreed to this request,
it would an imperceptibly setting up a player-type enemy.
But he thought again…
Isn’t my task to find the murderer?
So, is there a difference?
As Xu Shuo was pondering whether to agree or not, suddenly, the voice of his deputy ca from beside him, filled with shock and doubt.
“Boss…”
The deputy had just been looking at a ssage on a portable terminal and now looked up at Xu Shuo, his expression hesitant.
Xu Shuo raised an eyebrow and gestured for him to co over.
The deputy, not planning to announce what he had discovered loudly, walked over and whispered a few words into his ear. Mr. Lei, who was already leaning close by, rudely moved in closer to eavesdrop.
“Boss, it’s not the sa toxin as the one in the Jenny incident. This one kills upon ingestion.”
A toxin that kills upon ingestion.
So that’s why the unfortunate soul died so quickly.
And this ssage also ant—
There might be two murderers!
The murderer of the “Jenny incident” had five sequential cris using the sa thod and toxin, so it made no sense to suddenly change their approach on the sixth.
There could only be two explanations: one was accidental, and the other was the ergence of a second murderer!
In other words, soone else wanted Mr. Lei dead!
Or it could be said that this victim was indeed the intended target of this murderer.
Suddenly, Xu Shuo had an epiphany.
[Main Mission: Capture the mastermind behind the “Jenny incident.” (Submission type)]
The system specifically ntioned the “Jenny incident.”
Was it implying that this script had two different cris?
After sending the deputy away, Xu Shuo looked at Mr. Lei, whose expression had grown even more bizarre, and for a mont, both were silent.
The situation had beco complicated.
Mr. Lei glanced at him, as if he had also read the words “It has nothing to do with ” in the young man’s eyes.
Mr. Lei: “…”
Mr. Lei forced a smile through gritted teeth and said in a low voice, “I also have a lot of information about Jenny. We could cooperate. I rember you just took office in the Midtown District this month—doesn’t Inspector Berrod want to crack two cases at once?”
—rits! Don’t you want any rits?!
Xu Shuo pondered for a mont.
Then he looked at him seriously and said, “It’s going to cost extra.”
Mr. Lei was imdiately stunned.
After a long pause, he asked hesitantly, “International Currency?”
Xu Shuo looked at him aningfully.
Mr. Lei curled his lip: “Isn’t that a bit much? If you don’t want to cooperate, forget it. It’s not like I can’t do without you. It’s just that I think Inspector Berrod’s ability is quite good.”
Xu Shuo felt a bit regretful.
This person was not as easy to rob as Luo Kai, which truly was a bit disappointing—second-level newbies really didn’t have much to take after all.
He said with lackluster interest, “Alright then.”
Mr. Lei shrugged, “Okay then… huh?”
Did this guy just agree?
…
…
ps: The following content is the second revision, without deducting any points.
The Abyss Script has already been successfully PASA’ed by everyone.
Now it’s the second round for the war scripts and rule scripts.
Here’s a spoiler about the setting:
The dieval war script is a long-form, faction-based affair, with armies from the kingdom and the Holy Court clashing.
The rule script is like an amusent park, with lots of fodder, little fighting, and mainly about experiencing various amusent rides. Complete the experiences to pass, so there won’t be any intelligence showdowns.
Well, it’s up to everyone to decide where Shuo will go.
