Chapter 163： ultimate challenge

Why don't you remember the time traveled?

Lu Shijin found it difficult to understand, but now his mind was dizzy, and he couldn't think about it, and Rongzhi asked three questions again.

Lu Shijin had no choice but to wave at Rongzhi, staggered back to his room to rest, lay down and fell asleep within ten seconds.

It was a dreamless night.

The next morning, Lu Shi woke up early this morning. He didn't receive any new instructions from the APP on his phone. He first went to the bathroom to take a shower to refresh himself.

When I was taking a shower, I suddenly recalled the thing that Rong Zhe told him last night that he lost his memory, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Does he really have amnesia or just doesn't want to answer his own question?

If he was lying to him, Lu Shijin felt that there was no need for Rongzhi to directly say that he had amnesia. Even if he made it up casually, it would be more convincing than the reason for amnesia.

If it's true... then it's even more strange, why does everyone else remember everything, but it's easy to lose their memory?

Wait, does anyone else know?

Lu Shijin wiped the water droplets on his face, remembering that after getting on the boat, he didn't seem to have heard anyone mentioning their mission.

After taking a shower, Lu Shijin finished dressing, and it was eight o'clock in the morning.

The mobile phone has been silent, and it seems that everyone should have spent the night peacefully without any accident.

Lu Shijin felt a little hungry. After a night of hangover, he was eager to find some food to replenish his energy, so he went out of the room and went downstairs to have breakfast.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Lu Zhongze standing in the corridor, and when he saw Lu Shijin leaving the room, he stuck up enthusiastically, which made Lu Shijin wonder if Lu Zhongze was waiting outside and squatting on him.

The enthusiasm of the other party made Lu Shijin a little overwhelmed, but he also understood that Lu Zhongze was in the most dangerous situation right now, and of course he wanted to win more allies for himself.

Lu Zhongze came up and wanted to hook Lu Shijin's shoulder, Lu Shijin turned sideways slightly without a trace, making Lu Zhongze's raised hand flutter, but Lu Zhongze didn't feel embarrassed, and still greeted Lu Shijin calmly: "How was your sleep last night? ?"

"It's okay." Lu Shijin smiled, but looking at the dark circles on Lu Zhongze's face, I'm afraid he was worried and couldn't sleep all night.

"Go for breakfast? Let's go together?" Lu Zhongze suggested carefully observing Lu Shijin's face.

It happened that Lu Shijin also wanted to ask someone if he had amnesia, so he nodded in agreement, and the two went downstairs together to the banquet hall. Several people were already sitting in the banquet hall. They were Mr. and Mrs. Feng, Mrs. Li, and the nanny. .

They had almost eaten, but when they saw Lu Shijin and Lu Zhongze coming in, they didn't leave immediately, and quietly pricked up their ears to listen to what others were talking about.

The second round of voting is about to take place, and no one wants to give up halfway at this time and be voted out.

The waiter brought Lu Shijin and Lu Zhongze breakfast. It was a standard Chinese breakfast, soy milk, eggs, steamed buns, and fried dough sticks. It was very simple and nothing special.

Lu Shijin took a sip of soy milk and asked Lu Zhongze in a low voice, pretending to be chatting, "By the way, did you receive the final challenge after completing a few tasks?"

While peeling the tea eggs, Lu Zhongze replied nonchalantly: "I was unlucky. I did fifteen missions before I received the final challenge. Some people were lucky, and they were triggered after completing five missions."

"Then what system are you bound to?" Lu Shijin asked again.

Lu Zhongze swallowed a tea egg in two mouthfuls, and said vaguely, "What kind of villain strategy system, every time I have to go to attack the crazy villain big boss, every time I am abused, it's a fool!"

"Anyway, I got through it," Lu Shijin laughed dryly to show his sympathy, Lu Zhongze took a sip, his eyes sparked with anger, and he clenched his fists and said, "So I must not fall here, otherwise all the hardships I have suffered before will be in vain. Got it!"

"What is a villain," Mr. Feng on the side heard what the two said, and couldn't help but say, "I'm the worst, okay? I'm bound to a system that collects the villain's remorse, please, that's the villain! Is it so easy to regret? The system requires me to defeat the villain every time, and then die in front of the villain in order to reluctantly collect full regret points! There is no such thing as a good death."

Mrs. Feng said quickly: "I'm not much better. After I passed through, I was assigned a system of blackening counterattacks for female supporting roles. I had to defeat those rich and beautiful protagonists who had the halo of the protagonist to complete the task. Playing with your heart and mind like a palace fight, it exhausts me to death."

"So, do you all remember the tasks you've done and the systems you've bound?" Lu Shijin asked with a smile.

Lu Zhongze: "Of course, doesn't anyone remember?"

Lu Shijin: "No, I'll just ask."

"By the way, what system are you bound to?" Lu Zhongze asked curiously.

Lu Shijin remembered 711. In the past two days, there was no 711 buzzing in his ears, and his life seemed to lack something, and suddenly there was some melancholy in his heart.

Lu Shijin said in a low voice, "Affectionate male supporting system."

"As soon as you hear the name, you can guess it, it must be a cheating system." Lu Zhongze pouted and said with great disgust, "For the sake of the coolness value, we don't care whether our host is willing to do those broken tasks or not, it is simply forcing the good to be a prostitute, I I've never heard of a system that is not foolish." After complaining, he didn't forget to seek approval from Lu Shijin, "Are you right?"

Lu Shijin saw the same expression of righteous indignation on everyone's faces. He was embarrassed to have objections, so he nodded perfunctorily, "Yes."

As soon as the voice fell, Lu Shijin suddenly snorted from behind.

Lu Zhongze turned his head first than Lu Shijin. I don't know when, behind Lu Shijin stood a tall and tall handsome man, whom he had never seen on the boat, and asked strangely, "Who are you?"

Lu Shijin also turned his head. The man standing behind him was wearing a white coat with a white shirt inside. The buttons were buttoned all the way to the top, and the tie was neatly knotted. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looked alienated. The eyes are cold, and there is a sense of abstinence.

Who is this?

Players, you look at me, I look at you, obviously don't know each other.

The man raised his chin, lowered his gaze arrogantly and glanced at Lu Shijin, then snorted and looked away.

Lu Shijin, who was inexplicably rolled his eyes, was speechless: ...Unexplainable, did I offend you?

However, although the man looked like he didn't like him, Lu Shijin didn't feel any real hostility from him.

Just when everyone was curious, the captain appeared in time to introduce to everyone: "Let me introduce to you, this is the forensic doctor we invited, Xu Chen, Dr. Xu. Dr. Xu was originally on vacation, and I heard that we were on board. With his help, I believe we can find the murderer before the police arrive!"

It turns out he is a forensic doctor!

The crowd immediately changed their attitudes, with smiles on their faces.

Just kidding, the forensic doctor is going to do an autopsy soon. The first person to know the cause of the old man's death, if he can find out the slightest bit from his mouth, it will be much better than their wild guessing like no flies here!

"Hello Dr. Xu! It's really hard for you!" Lu Zhongze was the closest to Xu Chen. He stood up and wanted to shake hands with Xu Chen, but Xu Chen didn't seem to want to give Lu Zhongze this face, and he didn't take his hand in the pocket of his white coat. The meaning of coming out, Lu Zhongze withdrew his hand embarrassedly, knowing that Xu Chen would not eat his tricks, he sat back angrily.

"You can get to this point on your own? Don't you rely on the help of the system at all?" Xu Chen sneered, "I don't know, I thought you were all capable, but all of you raised your bowls and called your father. , put down the bowl and scolded the mother, ruthless."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what made this Doctor Xu unhappy. It was the first time they met, and the words were so ugly.

After Xu Chen finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at Lu Shijin again, with a hesitant expression.

Lu Shijin: "???"

Can an NPC be so arrogant now?

The captain, unaware of the embarrassment in the banquet hall, said flatly, "You have also met Dr. Xu, and the autopsy results should be available later in the afternoon, but when the autopsy results come out, it is not immediately clear who the real culprit is. In the afternoon search for evidence, I believe you should have found some new clues, so there will still be a round of voting at noon, please tell me who you suspect, and we will interrogate the person who has the most votes."

The captain took Xu Chen out of the banquet hall and went to the third floor. As soon as they left, the banquet hall fell into sighs again.

"Damn, who the **** is this murderer? Can you identify yourself? How many people does he want to kill? He wants to trade his life for the lives of nine people?!" Mr. Feng couldn't hold back his breath. He slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table forcefully, "Don't you have a bad conscience!"

"Why are you in a hurry," Mrs. Feng advised him in a low voice, "the autopsy results haven't come out, and no one is sure whether they are the murderer or not. Even if they know, how can they easily come out and confess their guilt? Don't say a word, let others see joke."

Mr. Feng said angrily: "What kind of joke am I letting others see? Isn't what I'm telling the truth? We have to wait for the murderer to win and we all lose to be happy, right? I'm going to say, the murderer who I said is ashamed. , because he has already died two people, and it is very likely that he will die next, even if he wins, he is not afraid of having nightmares at night in the future and these people will come to him for his life!"

The more Mr. Feng talked, the more boundless it became. Mrs. Feng kindly reminded him to stop talking, but Mr. Feng didn't appreciate it. Mrs. Feng's face twisted and she ignored him angrily.

After the death of the Li family's father and son, and the second round of voting to be faced, everyone's nerves were tense and could not stand any stimulation.

At this time, another person walked into the banquet hall, and everyone looked over, it was a long-awaited appearance.

The only person who hasn't come now is Miss Gao. Maybe she doesn't have the habit of eating breakfast, so she hasn't come down for a long time.

"Since everyone is here, I have an idea," Mrs. Li, who had never spoken, suddenly said, "You should have some evidence in your hands. Since you are looking for the murderer, instead of waiting for instructions to go to that parlor , it would be better for us to openly and honestly bring out all the clues to discuss and discuss, so as not to be led astray by those who are interested, what do you think?"

Mrs. Feng responded quickly: "Agree."

Mr. Feng raised his hand: "I have no opinion, anyway, the murderer can't be me."

Lu Zhongze was a little dissatisfied, "Hey, who are you referring to?"

Mrs. Li said blankly, "If you don't want to participate, you can go."

Lu Zhongze waved: "Cut, I'm not leaving. What if you pour dirty water on me? I'd like to hear what you have to say."

Lu Zhongze didn't leave, and Mrs. Li didn't chase anyone. She looked at the nanny and Rongzhi who were sitting in the row with her, and then looked at Lu Shijin, "What do the others mean?"

"Isn't there still one less person?" The nanny pointed to the vacant Miss Gao seat opposite and whispered, "Miss Gao hasn't come yet. Are you going to call her?"

Mrs. Li said coldly, "I don't think it's necessary. It's her business if she doesn't come, and it has nothing to do with others. With so many of us, should we wait for her alone?"

The nanny shut up and chose to remain silent, no more words, but there was no intention to leave, it should be accepted by default.

Lu Shijin and Rongzhi nodded in tandem, both expressing no objection.

In fact, rather than discussing clues, what Lu Shijin wanted to know was why Rongzhi had no memory of the previous tasks.

He had already tested it just now, and everyone else clearly knew what tasks they had done and what system they were bound to. There was no reason for a person to forget it.

So, what secrets are hidden in Rongzhi?

Lu Shijin glanced at Rongzhi several times, Rongzhi noticed his gaze, raised his eyes to meet him, and frowned to signal him to listen carefully to others' analysis of clues.

It feels like Lu Shijin, who was caught by the teacher and deserted in class: ...

All right, let's find out the **** murderer first.

"Who shall speak first?" Mrs. Li waited for a while, but no one took the initiative to speak, so she took a sip of water and cleared her throat, "Then let's start with me. Let me tell you some things I know first, my 'sir' You also know about my son. As for me, Mr. Lu didn't want me to directly inherit the estate. He told me that he was going to set up a fund to help me manage the money. I could get money from that fund every month. I receive living expenses, but you can also see that I like a luxurious life. Of course, the living expenses are not enough for me, so I am dissatisfied with Mr. Lu. The night before yesterday, I went out for a beauty treatment, but I did a perfect cosmetic surgery. I didn't go back immediately, but went to the third floor to find Mr. Lu, I wanted to talk to him about the cancellation of the establishment of the fund, and I also brought some medicine, which is a kind of drug that will numb people after taking it, and can cause paralysis."

"Did you give him medicine?" Mr. Feng asked quickly.

Mrs. Li shook her head, "No, because he told me why he set up a fund for me. The surnamed Li failed in his investment and couldn't make up for the shortfall. You all know that, then he turned his head to me. On his body, he stole all my valuable jewelry and sold them. It was discovered by Mr. Lu. For the sake of the child, it was impossible for me to divorce him. Mr. Lu was worried that after his death, I would be deceived by the surname Li, so I have always misunderstood his intention to ask the Foundation to help me keep my property. Now that the misunderstanding is resolved, it is of course impossible for me to give him any more medicine, so I just wanted to do it, but I didn't do it, and I counted it. Medicine, that medicine is not enough to kill."

Mrs. Feng asked, "Then do you have any doubts?"

Mrs. Li raised her hand and pointed directly at Lu Zhongze, "He."

Lu Zhongze's face changed slightly, and he sneered again and again, "Come here, I knew you would point at me."

Mrs. Li also sneered: "I don't doubt you for no reason, I have evidence."

Lu Zhongze frowned and said stubbornly, "What evidence?"

Mrs. Li casually flicked her nails, "You and the old man's mistress, there is evidence that Miss Gao has an affair, the old man knows about your affair, and the old man wants to cancel your inheritance rights, so you became angry and decided to kill him, right? As for Miss Gao, a person like her couldn't have any inheritance rights, but it was because she threatened the old man that if she didn't share her money, she would expose her relationship with you and bring shame to the Lu family, so the old man would compromise. .Am i right?"

Like an eggplant beaten by frost, Lu Zhongze slumped down on the chair, silently confirming the authenticity of what Mrs. Li said.

Mrs. Li: "Then can you tell me what your method of killing is?"

Lu Zhongze raised his head and said confidently, "I didn't kill anyone!"

"That's Miss Gao's murder?" Mrs. Li asked with a smile.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lu Zhongze would definitely increase others' suspicions of him if he didn't tell it, so he had to confess: "...Well, I said, our plan is to let Xiao Gao change the old man's medicine, Xiao Gao is a nurse , It was she who thought of this method, she changed the old man's medicine in advance, but the old man took the wrong medicine, at most, he would be unconscious, and it would not be as serious as death."

Mrs. Feng's face changed greatly: "You are also changing medicines?!"

Lu Zhongze was stunned for a moment. He didn't seem to understand why Mrs. Feng said "yes". In response, he asked suspiciously, "Could it be that you are too?"

Mr. Feng nodded sharply, "Yes, we also thought of the method of changing the dressing!"

Mrs. Feng thought of something, and she raised her voice and said, "If we say that we have changed the medicine twice, it means that we have not changed it? The old man's death must have nothing to do with the medicine!"

There was a hint of joy on Lu Zhongze's face, "Yes! It has nothing to do with us!"

Lu Shijin listened to them silently and found it amusing. There was no direct evidence to show that he was innocent, and it was quicker to put aside the relationship.

There are ghosts to believe.

When Lao Tzu is a fool, can't you see that you are trying to talk?

I am afraid that before he came, these few people had discussed it.

Mrs. Li looked at Lu Shijin with inquiring eyes, "What about you? What are your motives and methods of killing?"

Lu Shijin smiled and said calmly, "It's not a coincidence, the instructions given to me by the APP are also to change the medicine."

Lu Shijin glanced at the opposite Rongzhi, and Rongzhi understood it, and then he said softly, "Me too."

The faces of everyone were as ugly as swallowing flies.

"If you have this uncooperative attitude, I don't think it is necessary to continue the discussion." Mrs. Li said coldly, apparently wanting to blame Lu Shijin and the others.

Lu Shijin stood up and shrugged indifferently, "There was no need to discuss it at first, which murderer would be stupid enough to admit that he was a murderer? It's all been played all the way, don't take anyone for a fool, you can continue to act if you want, I I won't accompany you anymore."
