"Everyone, calm down." The class monitor shouted and finally calmed the chaotic crowd down.
"Is there any use in panicking? Can we leave this place just because we panic? We're not students anymore. Some of us even have jobs and families. I know you're afraid, and I'm afraid too, but the more afraid we are, the more likely we will be used by the murderer. We can only leave this place if we help each other and stick together. The ship is not unusable. We can slowly explore and see if we can start the ship again. We still have a chance to leave." The class monitor's words had some effect, but it was only temporary. If something similar happened again, the situation would become even more difficult to deal with.
Now that the clues had been cut off, they could have gotten some information from the murderer, but the Island Master had interrupted them. It seemed that the Island Master did not want to end this game so quickly. However, I will find some clues and find the person who killed Xu Liu.
Although it was lunchtime, none of the people present could eat. They just ate a little and went back to their rooms. Moreover, ever since Li Kui's incident, everyone would lock their rooms at night to prevent others from plotting against them. Even people who trusted each other would not let them in.
I took advantage of the last two days to continue searching the house where Xu Liu was killed.
The house was still the same as when we came here. I stood at the door and imagined the situation. According to Chen Wu's description, they were divided into two teams to search the house. Two people searched the second floor, and three people searched the first floor.
Xu Liu happened to be searching the second floor, so he found the message in the bedroom on the second floor. After Xu Liu found a way to escape from the island, he immediately told Chen Wu.
After that, what happened? I returned to the writing on the second floor. There were no traces of a fight beside the writing on the ground. This was strange. Even if I used Xu Liu's trust in them, there should be blood stains. However, after searching the entire house, I didn't find any blood stains in the house, except in the rice jar in the kitchen on the first floor.
When I came to the kitchen, I picked up the knife that had fallen to the ground and looked at it. I suddenly thought of a possibility. If Xu Liu was stabbed after his death, there would naturally be no blood on the ground. However, since Xu Liu was killed, why did he have to add another knife? What was the point of doing this?
"But if Xu Liu wasn't assassinated by a knife, how did he die? I remember that all of us didn't bring any tools when we went out to explore. So, if Xu Liu was killed by Chen Wu, how did he die?" If he was beaten to death, then there should be traces of beatings on Xu Liu's body. In that case, there should be wounds on Chen Wu's body.
However, I saw that other than Chen Wu's clothes being a little messy when he came back, there were no wounds on his body. That should be able to rule out the possibility that Chen Wu beat Xu Liu to death. However, if he didn't beat him to death, there are only two other possibilities. He hit his head hard or strangled him to death.
However, I didn't see any strangulation marks on Xu Liu's neck at that time. As for the heavy blow to his head, I didn't seem to have checked Xu Liu's head at that time because I saw a knife stabbed in Xu Liu's chest at that time, so I didn't think that Xu Liu was killed by other methods. But now that I thought about it, it was very likely that Xu Liu had suffered a heavy blow to his head. In addition, I had touched a small strand of hair in the rice bucket, which confirmed my guess.
However, Xu Liu's body has already been buried by us. It was impossible for me to dig up Xu Liu's body. If I did that, not only would it be disrespectful to the dead, but there would also be people who would think that I wanted to destroy the corpse and point the finger at me.
Time passed bit by bit, and it was almost the end. If we didn't find any conclusive evidence after three days, we might fail. We had already seen the consequences of failure before, although we didn't know the principle behind it. However, no one would think that they were having a nightmare.
"Haoxuan, I have something to tell you.”Just as I was panicking, Xia Mengting found me.
"Alright, the three days are about to end. Everyone, please proceed with the final judgment.”When the game was about to end, the broadcast sounded. The Island Master's voice was still as chilling as ever. It was clearly a very ordinary electronic synthesized voice, but it sounded like a roar from hell to their ears.
"As everyone can see, time is almost up, but we still haven't found the murderer. I can only say that the murderer is very lucky and very smart. I hope that when the murderer returns to the continent, he can help us contact reinforcements and rescue us. I, Wang Xiao, will definitely reward you handsomely." At this point, many people were still thinking of letting the murderer leave to call for help. However, they didn't know that once the murderer left, all of them would die. Although it was my fault for not saying it out loud at the time, I had made that decision to avoid chaos.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you. If the murderer successfully passed the three days, the rest of you will fail. Since you failed, you will be punished. As for the punishment, I don't think I need to explain it to you.”The Island Master's voice sounded again.
However, this time, everyone fell into a deathly silence. Then, it exploded like a bomb.
"Which bastard is it?”Someone roared angrily.
"Admit it yourself. If I die, my father will never let you off. You have to know who my father is!”Some people began to threaten him with their family background.
"Murderer, come out. I'll give you all my money.”Some people wanted to use their wealth to exchange for their lives.
"Tell me, is it you? I look at you suspiciously.”Some people began to suspect the people around them.
"How can you doubt me? We are brothers.”The rupture of trust made people feel despair.
When people were facing death, they would always do things that were beyond common sense. Even though they usually hated these things, even though these things were not allowed by morality and law, they were worthless in the face of life and death.
"Actually, if you want to survive, there's actually another way.”
This extreme desire to live became the Island Master's greatest pleasure in the game, and it would also become the opportunity for everyone to enter Hell.
"Actually, you have another way to survive.”The Island Master's voice rang out again, and everyone heard the argument.
"That is, kill the rest.”His voice was calm, but it was like a whisper from the underworld.
