129 Villa Wall Rules Strange Talk (5) If I can catch up this time……

Underground basement, Wang forehead frustrated and walked in the small room.

He probably belongs to the relatively low-class [ordinary person] category, clearly without any special identity, but this is already the third time he has participated in the strange discussion.

The three strange talks, this time made him uneasy. Because the previous two times were all the groups together to solve the mystery, even if they separated in the middle, it was not like each person stayed alone in a room.

What's even worse is that, from the current situation, it seems like the players have invisibly divided into camps, and he is unfortunately the one who has been excluded.

He walked faster and faster, the almost soundproof single-layer light brick wall transmitted all the sound of his footsteps to the next wall.

The student next door stared blankly at the wall, raised his hand and knocked twice, and replied, "What are you doing?"

"Who ——" Wang Zhen stopped his feet, also looking at that wall, felt that talking to others was fine, so he walked to the edge of that wall, pulled a chair to sit down, locked his eyes and stared at the ground: "Do you feel, we are being ostracized? It is very dangerous now?"

"Ah?" Su was surprised.

The weird talk master's nerves were all very tense. Although the king's words were unclear and unclear, they still immediately caused everyone to panic.

Next door, Li Xiaoshu immediately asked: "What do you mean? Can you explain it clearly?"

Wang forehead said one year and ten: "Just now I went to the first floor bathroom, saw seven or eight of them together going to the second floor, clearly carrying us to discuss something."

"What is this?!" Li Xiaoshu's voice increased, the uneasiness in her mouth becoming more obvious.

Wang nodded: "Yes."

Through the wall, Ly Tieu So could feel his face full of sadness.

The night before, when she attended the discussion, she was not too panicked. She carefully recalled it and said to Wang Zhen: "They probably did not intentionally alienate anyone. I also participated in the discussion the night before. At first glance, those people seemed to have relatively high levels of education and clear ideas, so they were more willing to gather to discuss countermeasures."

At Li Xiaochu opposite Tian Wenwen was also originally very nervous by Wang Zhen's words, hearing Su Ran's words he let out a sigh of relief, deciding to say: "Actually this is also quite good. The rules are weird, the big guys discuss a clearance method, then let the others hug the thighs to pass the clearance is also not bad. In other words... like me, a weak chicken joining the discussion may instead drag the hind legs, disturbing everyone's thoughts."

Wang Zhen smiled bitterly: "If it is a regular Rule Realm, then of course it is not a problem. But this strange talk, I am afraid it will not work."

Dien Van Van was surprised: "How do you say it?"

Wang forehead: "Don't you feel that this strange talk is different from other strange talks?"

The front only attended a newbie dungeon field text very vaguely: "How is it different?"

Wang Zhen said: "Usually, according to the rules of the game, everyone is in the same camp and has the same mission, so it is natural to join hands to pass it. But this dungeon... At least on the surface, that 'little brother' and our mission are clearly different. Moreover, we are so weak, he alone has the entire villa, I reasonably suspect that our camps are also different, it is an opposing relationship."

Suo naturally did not understand: "What about the relationship between the two? Still want everyone to go through it together?"

"No..." Wang Zhen recalled the content he had read online, his voice hoarse, "I saw the super talk, some Rules of the Realm force players to kill each other, also requires killing the enemy participants, only then can you survive."

"If we are currently in this type of dungeon, the most likely way for us to clear the pass is to kill the 'little guy', and those people who allied with him might mean changing camps. Wait until they kill us all, then we're done for."

"It's just that this doesn't make sense..." Su Ran tried to reason, "We're all trapped in this kind of small hole by the rules, it's not difficult for them to kill us at all, can't they just attack us directly? Besides, if joining the enemy camp means they can take the group to the next level, then everyone has announced that they're joining the enemy camp, isn't this nonsense?"

"Shhh." Wang Chen couldn't help but laugh mockingly, looking at Su Ran through the wall with disdain, "Student Party members are so simple."

He asked again: "If the method of killing people is there any specific requirement? If the camp changes, is there a limit on the number of people? Is it possible that the big shots have already filled up the group and are waiting for us to sacrifice ourselves, allowing themselves to pass through safely?"

"This..." Su Ran thought of saying no, because she felt that even if there were bad people in this world, they wouldn't be so big, to the point where a dungeon with nearly half of its population could coldly and mercilessly take other people as "sacrifice". But she heard the king's tone, she felt that he believed this wholeheartedly, as if his speculation had already come true, in this kind of situation she continued to argue would only lead to meaningless fighting.

Suo naturally did not say a word, Wang Tian saw that and must have felt that she was resigned to her own thoughts, in his heart there was a kind of inexplicable pride, continued to talk with Tian Wen Wen, Li Xiao Shu said: "So ah, I feel that we should think about how to resist, we cannot sit and wait for death, even if we do not kill people, we must think of a way to take the initiative, what do you think?"

Dien Van Van and Ly Tieu So could not see each other, but they both looked towards the direction of the king's forehead.

The girls felt that what the king said made some sense.

Even if we don't talk about opposing factions and the dangers of discussing strange rules, it's better to keep the initiative in one's own hands.

Several rooms away from each other was another small room. Because it was quite far away, Wu Jiang Dao could not hear their discussion.

He still climbed up the ladder, put his ear on the metal barrier in front of the bow and confirmed that there was no one above, then reached out and pushed the barrier.

"Clang, clang ——" after a very small two drops, the barrier was pushed away.

This is a little trick he used to do when he was a thief.

On the lock tongue, stick a piece of transparent tape. If the lock tongue is subjected to external force, it can easily come off, making the door lock ineffective.

This trick is not effective against high-end anti-theft doors, but it is more effective than simple locks. This block of wind on the door panel above the small room obviously belongs to the latter, so when Wu Jiang dug into the room and saw a small roll of transparent tape while checking the items, the DNA immediately moved.

Crawling out of the room, he gently brought the board back, avoiding being discovered by anyone leaving. Then he carefully walked out of the basement, mentally confirming that there was no one on the first floor. He had been hiding for a while, so no one would set foot in the house.

This is a really good location, the gap on the left side of the door shaft is just tilted towards the stairs. If that person with the prop "Miss Ninh" goes downstairs, he will be the first to notice her whereabouts.

.

On the third floor of the study, the tycoon sat on the ground, spending nearly an hour to finish organizing all the documents in his hands.

Although everyone had the heart to not let the "mutation speculation" disturb their thoughts, the medical history summary confirmed this speculation.

——In the 14 patient cohorts, 6 patients had bacterial pneumonia, and another 3 patients had bacterial enteritis, with the incidence of bacterial infection reaching 64%.

This figure is obviously higher than the average person's susceptibility to bacterial infection.

"So... Still focus on the mutation issue?" Zhang Liping looked at this result, his expression solemn.

Although this meaning was what they had speculated from the beginning, it was not a good thing at all. Because the conjecture behind this was that they had undergone a "mutation", and according to this fact, the timeline was extended, and it was very possible that they would mutate again in the not too distant future.

But they are not even clear when the next mutation will be.

Sitting together, Ye Xi and Wang Xinran silently faced each other. Wang Xinran's eyes quickly swept over the teammates sitting there. Ye Xi pointed down to show his approval. Wang Xinran then mustered up all her courage and reached out to take the medical record in front of everyone.

Seeing this, the teammates couldn't help but be stunned, but still handed over all the notes to her. Wang Xinran finally took back Ye Xi's two notes, searched for the circle on everyone's notes, and buried her head in thought for a while before she spoke: "Of the 14 individuals, two have a clear history of depression, one has anorexia nervosa, the other four have had a tendency to be resentful, three have a tendency to be stubborn, and one has anorexia nervosa, and one has anorexia nervosa."

"Although if we calculate them separately, the number of each type is not much. But if we classify them all as 'psychological problems', then——"

After speaking, she placed the stack of papers on the wooden floor in front of her: "—— So out of 14 people, 12 have different levels of psychological problems, the probability is about 86%, much higher than the rate of bacterial infection."

At the same time, this probability is also greater than the average person's psychological problem rate.

Probably the first time to carry out this kind of key calculation, Wang Xinran finished speaking with a slightly guilty voice. As the vice captain, Yang Ge was quick to grasp this kind of emotion, immediately expressed encouragement to the new team member: "Good guy, as expected of a real fighter, his overall ability is really formidable!"

Wang Xinran let out a breath and laughed, continuing: "So, is it possible for this to provide another kind of idea?"

"... For example?" Zhang Liping was a bit stupid.

It was a bacterial infection and a psychological illness, making this medical genius feel deeply unwell.

Vuong Tam Nhiem restrained her smile, her eyes turned to Tieu Lanh: "Tieu Doi just mentioned that he might be a doctor, is it possible that he is a psychologist?"

Tieu Lanh's eyes paused slightly, then he shook his head: "No."

Vuong Tam Nhiem stiffened: "Why?"

"Although they are both medical sciences, psychology is a relatively independent field of study compared to other disciplines." Xiao Leng pointed to the bookshelf not far away that was filled with medical books, "You can look at the books on the bookshelf, there are many books on surgery, internal medicine, brain pathology, infectious disease, even gynecology and pediatrics, but there are almost no books on psychology."

"So if I were to infer from recent literature, I feel that 'I' could be any kind of doctor, but not a psychologist."

"Like this..." Wang Xinran felt a bit discouraged.

She just thought, "Xiao Ming" might be a psychologist, bringing these patients here is to treat them, locking them in the basement this kind of strange operation has another hidden meaning, asking them to go one step further to reveal.

But if he is not a psychologist, then this conjecture is not established.

"However." Xiao Leng changed the subject, "'I' cannot possibly be a psychologist, it's not like you discovered useless clues."

Wang Xinran's eyes lit up.

Xiao Leng thought for a moment and said, "There is a possibility of a 'mutant infection', so as a doctor, I specialize in finding a group of people with psychological problems to be infected. I conduct medical experiments here. The specially made drinks from the refrigerated counter and the light pink spices used to cook rice are all experimental medicines."

"But if it is a story of 'infection mutation', why do we need to find the infected person with psychological problems?" Yang Ge expressed doubt about this kind of logic.

Xiao Leng nodded: "I'm just stating a possibility. As for the reason, it could be that 'I' discovered that people with psychological problems are more easily infected and can easily obtain antibodies, or it could be that people with psychological problems are more easily controlled, so they agreed to conduct this kind of experiment."

"So..." Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Zhang Liping leaned forward and asked with great interest, "What is this 'sleeping together' thing?"

Ye Xi continued: "If we consider it based on the 'infection mutation', '□□' is probably also an experimental part, because 'Xiao Ming' wants to observe the experimenter's body's reaction during sleep? So when sleeping, the experimenter has to wear handcuffs to avoid danger to 'Xiao Ming'."

Tieu Lang nodded: "There is such a possibility."

Diep Tich said again: "But I feel there is another possibility."

She paused in her words: "Our copy is only limited to this villa, but if we consider the complete world view, doesn't this copy mean that an 'infectious mutation' has appeared in the outside world, and we—a doctor and fourteen infected people are trapped together in this villa, trying to survive while also leading to a situation where we are isolated from the world?"

"Exactly." Tieu Lanh expressed his approval.

"So is it possible that the boss's mental state will become even more unhealthy during this process? Whether it's the infected person or the doctor himself, could psychological problems appear?"

Ren Ningning sat against the wall: "Theoretically, such a long period of time separated from the world will definitely cause psychological problems, but what do you want to say?"

"I thought this might be the explanation of 'sleeping companion' and 'gift'?" Ye Xi said, "The master is isolated from the world, and the doctor also has the pressure of researching viruses, so he especially requires others to accompany him. Even if he is afraid that he might be attacked while sleeping at night, he still wants others to accompany him. And 'giving gifts' is a kind of social interaction, which can make the person giving and receiving gifts feel satisfied, so the doctor specially arranged these things, intending to regulate the master's psychological state?"

"This seems very reasonable!" Yang Ge's face revealed a look of joy. Because Ye Xi's second type of speech for "giving a gift" behavior was also arranged to explain reasonably, bringing together the elements that everyone was paying attention to, forming a relatively complete story shape.

Diep Tich raised his eyelids: "But what if there is no 'mutant infection' at all?"

"If there is no 'mutant infection', what kind of story are we facing?"

"So..." Duong Ca was stuck.

Although Xiao Leng just emphasized that there was no need to deliberately think about the 'infectious mutation' hypothesis, this was the idea they had made from the very beginning, and each of them, including Xiao Leng himself, found it very difficult to completely bypass this idea.

Duong Ca was stunned, realizing that the influence of these four words "first in is master" was much greater than they had imagined.

So now Diep Tich asked, "What if there is no 'mutant infection' at all?" Duong Ca immediately felt his mind go blank, his thoughts from the first segment became jumbled.

This feeling is a bit strange.

Xiao Leng coughed unnaturally, his eyes instinctively avoiding Zhang Liping who had been "□□" for two days, his voice still remaining calm: "If there is no 'infection mutation' at all, this is probably just a perverted story."

Without "Infected Mutation", "Doctor Xiao Ming" also locked 14 patients in the underground basement, which is purely perverted behavior.

That meaning of imprisonment, unknown medicine, "sleeping companion", and also the so-called "giving gifts" are all part of perverted behavior.

This kind of background is projected into the real world, the rule of law column can probably hit the upper, middle and lower three periods.

However, considering that the first two rules mentioned "The world is full of dangers", the underground group also mentioned "Limited resources". Standing from the perspective of "Rules are not meaningless", he thought that the possibility of "Infected mutation" was still greater than "Pure perversion".

Yang Ge looked around: "Team leader, in my opinion, we should first help you check all the places again. We can also look through those medical books, in case there really are important clues?"

"In the end, whether or not it was a mutation, we cannot always rely on assumptions. If there is no mutation here, it is basically a criminal case, everyone's thoughts are all about to be changed, this concerns the overall thinking factor, we need to quickly clarify it."

"Maybe." Tieu Lanh nodded.

He himself also felt that it was impossible to completely ignore those medical books, but there were too many of them, and he alone was unable to handle them.

"Moreover, there are still a few blind spots now." Wang Xinran took out the rule from her pocket, and with the attitude of a school bully, she held the pen very seriously and drew the key points, "Rule 3 requires us to hear his footsteps when loudly saying 'you're back'; rule 4 mentions the person who wants to harm our family, friend; rule 6 says we must provide him with 'emotional value'." She raised her head, "If there is a suitable opportunity, we'd better try these rules, and see what they mean."

All 17 new people Qin Shishi hesitantly said: "There is no request to verify the authenticity?"

"At first glance, it doesn't look fake." Ye Xi shook his head, "This time's weird talk might be very similar to the previous 'Star Moon Apartment Rules Weird Talk', the rules themselves are real, the important thing is to dig up the story behind it, and from the story find the key to unlocking it."

She said this and remembered that the "key" to passing the exam that time was to make "Big Sister" obsessed with the admission notice letter.

If this time is the same as last time, what will the key be?

If the story is really about "Infection Mutation", then the key is most likely to be solving the infection serum or antidote.

But if it's "Pure pervert" like this...

So hard to say.

It could be that someone is obsessed with the item, or it could be a method for the rich to escape safely. It is even possible that this strange place also has a "dead teammate" equivalent to "elder sister", staying alone in another space-time, waiting for them to rescue her.

This kind of situation itself will make customs clearance difficulties on a large scale increase.

... Diep Tich imagined like this, couldn't help but start to look forward to the story of "Infected Mutation".

Compared to the "evil heart of man" hypothesis, what werewolf zombie bacteria infection is not so terrifying!

"Stand up!" Duong Ca clapped his hands, first stretched from the wooden floor and walked towards the bookshelf.

The others who followed her all got up and spontaneously split into several groups. Some stayed in the study room to read books with Yang Ge, while others went to the opposite resting room to check out the exercise and gaming equipment, especially the several game consoles.

This type of test is familiar to the veteran police team members, and it is not difficult for the newly joined team members to help out.

The only thing that required everyone to pay special attention was the restroom, drinking water, this kind of small thing - the third floor had no restroom nor water purifier, both of these things required going downstairs. In order to avoid breaking the rules, they first needed to "report" to Xiao Leng.

About an hour passed, and Ren Ningning decided to go to the bathroom. Out of caution, she did not go to the second floor's spare bedroom bathroom that she had never set foot in before, but instead chose the first floor bathroom that everyone had lined up to use.

At the moment her figure appeared at the staircase door, Wu Jiang, who had been hiding behind the door for a long time, his eyes lit up.

A few minutes later, a shrill scream echoed from the first floor to the third floor.

This voice was very sharp, but not too panicked, in a very short moment it disappeared, followed closely by a symbolic dull collision.

Everyone on the third floor was shocked. Yang Ge was the first to recognize Ren Ningning's voice. He threw down the book in his hand and ran towards the first floor.

First floor bathroom door, Ngo Giang Dao was a bit panic.

Roughly three seconds ago, he had steadily and ruthlessly squeezed Ren Ningning's throat. According to his plan, he only needed to hold on for a few dozen seconds, and this weak-willed girl would stop breathing, then be judged dead by the system, allowing him to randomly shoot out props.

Not knowing what happened, the person who was being tightly held by him quickly escaped the shackles and chains. Before he could react, the most sensitive part of his lower body received a severe blow from his knee.

... This seemingly weak girl was surprisingly strong. The pain from the blow instantly spread across half of his body, leaving him unable to even scream. His face was red from the pain.

Ren Ningning took advantage of the situation and skillfully turned around, raised one leg, and mercilessly kicked Wu Jiang's face.

In that instant, Wu Jiang Tao, in his pain and confusion, vaguely saw two small white hard pieces flying out of his mouth, accompanied by some bright red blood stains, together drawing a beautiful parabola in the air.

But before he could even make a judgment, "That's it," he lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground, losing all sense of perception.

Yang Ge immediately rushed to the first floor in the blink of an eye, staring at Wu Jiang Tao, and said, "What's the situation?!"

"He attacked me." Ren Ningning let go of the old man's foot, the corner of her mouth slightly twitched, "Probably an [Bad Luck Immortal] or a [Chaos Immortal], discovered that I had an item, and wanted to kill even more?"

"... Then he really found the right person." Yang Ge looked at Wu Jiang Dao with pity in his eyes, and tacitly carried the person up with Ren Ningning. There was no need to bother looking for a suitable place to put him, and he directly brought him to the basement of his own house, then moved the ladder in the room away.

Ren Ningning was closing the door when she discovered that there was transparent tape stuck on the lock. She frowned and said, "The owner of the mansion, would you come up with this kind of little trick to steal?"

Duong Ca glanced at her tearing off the tape: "It's also possible that it's not the owner."

Who said that villa area will not be invaded by bandits?

But going out to steal and entering a strange neighborhood is bad luck.

Because the ladder was taken away, they didn't need to worry about Wu Jiang Dao running out, not knowing where Xiao Leng put the key didn't matter. Ren Ningning directly put the shield on the table, dusted her hands, stood up, and suddenly remembered this matter: "... You rushed down to find me, and reported to Team Xiao, what happened?"

These words made Yang Ca's originally gentle expression instantly turn pale: "No..."

.

At the same time, Diep Tich made up his mind, closed the book he was flipping through in his hand, and silently looked at Tieu Lanh.

He was sitting in front of the computer, once again checking the documents on the computer.

She thought about it a few times in her head, and finally decided to use a casual tone to open her mouth: "I'll go get some more water."

"Okay." Tieu Lanh nodded.

Diep Tich left the study and went to the first floor. He opened the kitchen counter, found clean cups, took out two and placed them on the kitchen table. He turned around and entered the dining room to look for something on the storage counter.

She was looking for... Tea leaves. Or coffee would be fine, but it would be best to use dried beans, as the speed would look too formal.

Finally she found a box of black tea tea bags.

Diep Tich sighed, took out two bags and turned them back to the kitchen, put the tea bags into two cups, then went to the water purifier and filled one of the cups with boiling water. :,,.
