Absurd deduction game

The three ghosts in the abandoned factory finally disappeared from the camera lens.

Time taken, one hour and twenty minutes.

After Yu Xing threw the camera away, he breathed a sigh of relief: Finally, I don't have to hold on to this thing anymore. I really don't know how the protagonist in some foreign horror games does parkour while holding the camera from beginning to end.

Zhao Yijiu still held the camera in his hand: Are you sure you don't need it anymore?

Then what else? If I don't change the battery, no one will be able to punish me. Yu Xing patted the dust on his hands and walked back from behind the desk. When he looked up, he saw a dark man standing outside the door. figure.

I don't know when the figure appeared. He was half-hiding behind the door quietly, with a pair of eyes peering into the office. Anyone with a poor mental quality would have been able to scare him on the spot.

Assistant Hao, you are here.

Zhao Yijiu quickly put the knife into his pocket and followed Yu Xing's line of sight as if nothing had happened.

Hearing someone calling out his identity, the figure outside the door moved. A flashlight suddenly lit up, shining from bottom to top on the man's fleshy face, casting a strange shadow.

It stands to reason that for ordinary applicants, that is, people who take the test without knowing it, if they finally complete the test and encounter another ghost, the ups and downs in their moods are no joke.

However, the two people in the room were as calm as they could be, watching Assistant Hao's performance in silence.

...Congratulations. After a few seconds, seeing that he could not achieve the effect he wanted, Assistant Hao smiled dryly and moved the flashlight away, and walked out from behind the door, intending to pretend that nothing happened, You two passed our company’s recruitment.”

Thank you, I'm so sleepy——

Um.

Assistant Hao has seen many newcomers who questioned angrily after hearing this, and some cried with joy, but he has never seen anything like these two people - they looked like they had expected it.

Look, that pale-skinned young man is still yawning!

Rubbing his eyes, Assistant Hao couldn't help but feel a little confused. Then he thought, maybe he had only been a newcomer tester for a short period of time and didn't have much experience. Look, they haven't arrived in an hour and a half. ah!

Thinking of this, he showed that standard smile on his face and waved for the two of them to come closer.

Zhao Yijiu put the camera in the cabinet and approached with Yu Xing.

Assistant Hao observed the expressions of the two of them. Although as a ghost, his vivid appearance was a bit inconsistent: Actually, your memory should have been restored by now. Think about it carefully. In fact, we are not there in reality. This deduction company exists.”

Yeah. Zhao Yijiao said calmly.

I understand, please continue. Yu Xing didn't care much.

Before, he did have information about this deduction company in his mind, including online reviews, well-known anchors, fixed programs, and even the company building used for the previous round of interviews, etc. It can be said that everything from the body to the society has made him No one can find fault.

After Assistant Hao finished speaking, Yu Xing recalled these memories and remembered that he had been implanted with these memories just a few hours ago. There was no such thing as a friend recommending him for an interview three days ago.

He has never done anything like searching online information or measuring company risks.

Of course, although his memory was inevitably distorted, he had known this for a long time, so he was not affected at this time. He believed that the same was true for people like Zhao Yiju who could get the sacrificial knife in advance.

Since our company is fake, you must be curious about what force distorted your memories and what our purpose is. Assistant Hao didn't care about the clear Not at all on the faces of these two people. Curious look, this is his mission and he must make it clear.

Here, I would like to solemnly announce again——

Welcome to the absurd deduction game!

As soon as his voice fell, Yu Xing felt a chill coming from all directions.

The cold breath burrowed into his body like maggots attached to his bones, and then gathered in his brain, as if it wanted to swallow up his soul - if people really had such a thing as a soul.

Vaguely, Yu Xing heard someone talking in his head.

It was very noisy, not one person, but many people, buzzing like hundreds of monks chanting sutras around their ears.

Gradually, there were cries and screams in the voices, the rumble of something falling, the sound of running, calls for help, and his most familiar roar.

The content of that roar was... Yu Xing frowned and took a hard bite on the tip of his tongue. The smell of blood spread in his mouth, causing him to forcibly interrupt the voice in his head.

He didn't want to hear it.

He didn't want to hear what was coming next.

The pain caused full awakening, and those sounds faded away like a tide. In the end, he only heard a mechanized voice——

The derivation test results are being evaluated.

The evaluation is completed. The candidate Yu is fortunate enough to meet the conditions and will be granted qualifications.

Generating persona template.

It’s a deduction game system! There was a little excitement in Yu Xing's eyes, knowing that everything he did was for this.

No one knows how long he had been waiting for this moment.

But before the results were generated, his pupils shrank, and he immediately covered his mouth with his right hand, swallowing the rusty smell that suddenly rose up in his throat, and a layer of sweat oozed from the surface of his body.

Oh, it’s finished...

Yu Xing took a breath and thought to himself: The cold breath just now seems to have aroused physical discomfort. If I don't rest, the consequences will be a bit unpredictable.

There are others here, and he doesn't want to expose too much.

The next moment, the mechanized voice sounded again: The personality mask template has been generated.

A translucent white template suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, connected to his consciousness. He barely needed to look carefully before the content on it was completely scanned by him.

[Personal mask? (unnamed)】

[Owner: Yu Xing]

[Basic information: Male, height 185cm, weight 65kg, age* # * # (error occurred)]

[Identity: To be activated]

[Mask proportion: not evaluated]

[Description of the holder: Let me see... something is wrong with you. How did you get let in? 】

[Personality sacrifice:? ? ? (Due to the fact that the first deduction has not been completed, the original explanation of the sacrifice’s ability is temporarily hidden, and the ability will not be affected. Please discover it by yourself)]

[Personality alienation degree:? ? ? 】

[Deduction Mall: Not open]

[Wish list: empty]

[Please choose to start the Persona Evaluation Game within three days. If the game has not started after 72 hours, you will be forced to enter at the last minute. If you succeed, you can activate the Persona. If you fail, you will be disqualified. Death is the ideal destination]

This is really... Yu Xing looked at this string of data that was equivalent to a player template and searched for adjectives in his mind.

Ah, yes, everything is weird!

Where the error occurred, and the holder described it, it seems extremely suspicious at first glance!

Yu Xing could only raise his eyebrows: Fortunately, no one else could see it.

In addition to this string of data, a lot of new content automatically appeared in his mind.

To put it in order:

He has now been selected by a game called [Absurd Deduction] and is already a quasi-player.

In this real, weird, and absurd game, players are called deducers and need to find answers, truth, and survive in game events one after another.

Deducers who survive will receive varying amounts of deduction points based on their game scores, which can be exchanged for anything they want in the mall in the Persona.

Including wealth, power, health, beauty, and everything else... desires born from the heart of the human heart.

The world of the game is affiliated with reality, yet independent of reality. All the order and science of the real world will be distorted and invalidated in this fragmented game world, forming new disordered rules. Deducers call the game world - [Absurdity] .

Yu Xing glanced at Zhao Yijiu next to him from the corner of his eye and found that the other person seemed to be still digesting the information, so he stabilized his trembling body.

He was starting to get cold.

His body is a curse to him, forcing him to constantly compromise and weaken himself. Otherwise, the more high-profile he is, the more likely he is to put himself in danger.

Tsk, that’s really annoying.

Yu Xing's face remained unchanged and his attention returned to the information in his mind.

There are two steps to becoming an official deducer.

He has just completed the first step, which is this simple deduction test. This is a [ridiculous] test of basic qualities such as intelligence, logic, reflexes, and courage. People who are not qualified... Zhang Shuya is an example.

In terms of gamification needs, he has already obtained the game invitation code.

However, you still need to do some operations to activate the invitation code and enter the game.

This activation operation is what [Persona] wrote last, to evaluate the game.

The evaluation game is single player.

This is good news for Yu Xing. Playing alone means that he can be a little more casual.

Do you understand? You have to participate in a game in three days. If you don't participate... Assistant Hao looked on with a smile. It wasn't until both newcomers understood that he came closer and said, I will die. oh!

Zhao Yijiu looked at him coldly: If you weren't so childish, you would still be the amiable fat man.

Assistant Hao belongs to the role of guide for novices. Although he is a ghost, he will not do anything to them. Zhao Yijiu knows this well.

So this boring little scare is really unnecessary. If Yu Xing... Yu Xing stops pretending, he is still a little used to it.

The amiable fat man suddenly became embarrassed. This new guy is not fun!

He sighed: Okay, okay, you just need to understand the rules. Since you are not official deductions, there will be no treatment benefits for the injuries sustained in this test.

By the way, there are three ways to survive this test. One, follow my initial instructions and honestly change the battery for four hours. Two, blind your own eyes, so that no matter whether the camera has power or not, No ghost will hurt you again. The third and most difficult one is your way of clearing the level, counter-killing the ghosts.

When you live to become official deducers, you will be rewarded for your performance.

That's all I said, you can go back.

After saying that, Assistant Hao came in high spirits and left in low spirits, turning into an invisible blood mist and disappearing into the air.

Regarding Yu Xing’s purpose and his physical condition, I will write about it later.

Thank you bosses for the rewards! A reminder not to shout so arrogantly about the ID of a certain reader on the fan list (raise a kitchen knife manually)
