Chapter 450: Is it Complex or Simple?

Chen Ran walked out of the poisoned wine Secret Room.

He found...

This was still a room.

This room was very small in space, only about five square meters. In the middle was a table the size of a mahjong table, as well as four chairs.

There were four doors at the front, back, left, and right of the room.

Chen Ran stood at the front door.

Lin Xuan stood at the back door.

Jiang Zhe stood at the left door.

Qiu Yinong stood at the right door.

They walked into the room, and with a series of bangs, all four doors closed automatically, turning it into a Secret Room.

The four sat in different positions.

Top seat: Lin Xuan.

Bottom seat: Chen Ran.

Left seat: Jiang Zhe.

Right seat: Qiu Yinong.

A screen of light appeared in the middle of the table.

【Role-playing.】

【Actor: Must perform behaviors corresponding to the identity setting. If deviating from the identity setting, obliteration/disappearance punishment.】

【Non-actors: Must kill/expose the actor within two hours, and can immediately clear the stage. Otherwise, all will face the obliteration punishment.】

The light screen disappeared, and the four fell into deep thought.

'【Actor: obliteration/disappearance】 In other words, this actor could be a human, or it could be a virtual person.'

Thinking up to this point.

The four surveyed the Secret Room. They thought to themselves that since the Secret Room was so small, if they used the Liar-Slayer's protection mechanism to test whether it was a human or a virtual person...

Then the person touching someone else would touch others while being bounced away, be bounced away again, touch others again, and so on. They would be bounced to death alive.

Chen Ran pulled out his cigarette case, opened it with one hand, grabbed a cigarette with his mouth, and lit it.

Seeing him do this, the three immediately understood that this should be some kind of habit of Chen Ran's.

Sure enough, seeing this, Qiu Yinong fished out some chewing gum from her pocket, unwrapped the wrapper, and after putting the gum in her mouth, she folded the wrapper in half, and then in half again. After three times, the wrapper was folded into a square the size of a pinky fingernail, and then she pocketed it.

The two looked at Lin Xuan and Jiang Zhe.

Lin Xuan and Jiang Zhe exchanged a glance, both helplessly shrugging their shoulders.

After all, Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong had no idea about the habits of the two of them.

Seeing this, Chen Ran thought for a moment, took out four A4 papers from his bag, gave one to each person, and the other three also took out their pens.

None of them dared to speak and could only write.

Chen Ran: Lin Xuan, is your skill always in an active state?

Lin Xuan: Yes, in the other spaces there are also four people in this Secret Room, with the exact same appearances.

Chen Ran: Lin Xuan provides a lie, Qiu Yinong uses her skill.

Chen Ran: After time resets, Qiu Yinong reminds Jiang Zhe to use the Liar-Slayer command skill.

Chen Ran: I will use my skill last.

The three pondered for a moment and nodded.

Lin Xuan: "I lied."

Qiu Yinong immediately pointed her gun at the ceiling.

"Liar-Slayer·Wheel of Time!"

In front of the four doors, the four exchanged a glance and walked into the room, sitting in their different positions. With a series of bangs, all four doors closed automatically.

Qiu Yinong immediately took out pen and paper, and wrote on the paper: Jiang Zhe, you immediately use your skill.

Jiang Zhe frowned. He couldn't help but remember that in front of the Gatehouse, Qiu Yinong had used a skill that seemed to reset time.

Thus, he pulled out his gun: "Ghost Whisperer·Emperor's Seal of Reincarnation·Reverse the Future."

The memories of the three returned.

And they all looked at Chen Ran. After all, on the previous paper, Chen Ran wrote he would use his skill last.

Chen Ran took out pen and paper and wrote: You guys know, I can't use skills.

After finishing, he observed everyone's expressions, and seeing no change.

He continued to write: For the next game, everyone place your Liar-Slayers in the middle of the table.

The three hesitated slightly, and rarely, none of them handed over their Liar-Slayers.

Chen Ran: Then there's no other way.

The next moment, without any warning, Chen Ran pulled out his gun and pointed it at Lin Xuan: "You lied."

Bang. A gunshot rang out, and Lin Xuan died.

Immediately after, Lin Xuan's appearance changed, turning into a scrawny youth.

A light screen appeared in the middle of the table:

【Stage Cleared!】

A door appeared on the wall directly opposite.

The three didn't speak.

Jiang Zhe glanced at Chen Ran.

'My and Qiu Yinong's skills are very special. As long as they are used, it can be confirmed that we two are real.'

'And Chen Ran himself can confirm that he is real. Then...'

'In Chen Ran's judgment, Lin Xuan must definitely be fake. Furthermore, just now, Lin Xuan provided a lie to Qiu Yinong so she could use her skill. Therefore, this actor Lin Xuan is a human, not a virtual person.'

'The actor provided a lie according to Lin Xuan's setting, because Lin Xuan is a spatial skill owner. If he didn't provide a lie, we would immediately be able to judge that he was fake.'

'Since 【Lin Xuan】 told a lie, and is a human, not a virtual person, Chen Ran naturally dared to Judge him, and Judged him to death.'

'That's not all. If Qiu Yinong and I couldn't use our skills, he could confirm that the person among us two who didn't use a skill is the fake. I have to say...'

'This plan is very comprehensive. It not only identified the identities of the three of us but also forced the actor to tell a lie. Killing four birds with one stone!'

'Only...'

Jiang Zhe withdrew his gaze. During the time he was thinking, Qiu Yinong had already inconspicuously picked up the Point Card on the corpse of the scrawny youth.

Jiang Zhe: "..."

'Wait, why do I feel that the combination of Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong is...'

'Shameless + Scheming!'

…

"Liar-Slayer·Wheel of Time!"

Qiu Yinong took out pen and paper and wrote down: Jiang Zhe, you immediately use your skill.

Jiang Zhe thought for a moment. He remembered that in front of the Gatehouse, Qiu Yinong's skill could reset time.

Thus, he pulled out his gun: "Ghost Whisperer·Emperor's Seal of Reincarnation·Reverse the Future."

The memories of the three returned.

Chen Ran took out pen and paper and wrote down: Everyone put your Liar-Slayers in the middle of the table.

But strangely, this time none of the three handed over their Liar-Slayers.

Chen Ran pondered for a moment, took a few deep puffs of his cigarette, and said, "My name is Chen Ran."

Then he wrote down: Everyone say it.

Qiu Yinong: "My name is Qiu Yinong."

Jiang Zhe: "My name is Jiang Zhe."

Right at this moment, Lin Xuan suddenly drew his gun and pointed it at Qiu Yinong: "You lied."

Bang. A gunshot rang out, and Qiu Yinong died, her appearance also turning into a bespectacled woman.

A light screen on the desktop:

【Stage Cleared!】

At the same time, a door appeared on the wall opposite the Secret Room.

Lin Xuan was just about to put his gun away when he was stopped by a look from Chen Ran.

He was startled, and immediately pointed his gun at Jiang Zhe.

"You lied."

A gunshot rang out. Jiang Zhe died, his appearance turning into a Middle-aged Uncle.

"You lied."

Lin Xuan aimed at Chen Ran and pulled the trigger, but click, the bullet jammed.

'Chen Ran is real.'

'I have to say, Chen Ran's plan is very brainless and simple. Everyone just needs to say their own name.'

'I should know that I am the me from another space, and I can freely Judge them. Even if the Judgment fails, it's not a problem.'

'Therefore, as long as the actors say the names they are playing, they will definitely die without a doubt.'

'Of course, if I didn't dare to Judge them, it would prove that I am a fake.'

'Fuck, I shouldn't have Judged. If I let Chen Ran think I was fake, he might have Judged me, and the Judgment would fail...'

While Lin Xuan was having sweet dreams, Chen Ran had already inconspicuously picked up the Point Cards from the two corpses and pocketed them.

Lin Xuan: "..."

'Still as shameless as ever.'

Chen Ran ignored Lin Xuan's resentful gaze.

The two walked out of the Secret Room.
