Chapter 838 Who is the assassin?
It was Su Yunshu's turn to speak next. Su Yunshu said calmly, "I have a heavy responsibility and will never fall down easily."
She deliberately made her words ambiguous, making it sound like a knight expressing his loyalty, and also a bit like a king hinting at his own importance.
Then it was Si Nian who said, "As for me, I can only say that I hope everyone doesn't make the wrong choice."
Li Tang has been carefully observing everyone's expressions, hoping to find a little clue from the superficial efforts. "I am a civilian or above, I must be a good person, the good people must believe me."
Yu Rui rolled her eyes at Li Tang and said, "Everyone's identity is unclear right now, so it's better not to trust anyone for now. My identity is very ordinary."
Jin Bei's eyes moved around everyone's faces. "So everyone is a good person. Some of you must have lied, but I am sure that I am a good person."
"My identity is definitely very important among us." Ren Xiao nodded affirmatively.
After the first round of descriptions, no one provided any information. Everyone said they were good people, but there were only so many good people, and the assassin was hiding among them.
"The first round of descriptions is over. It's getting dark, everyone please close your eyes!"
"Assassin, please open your eyes! Assassin, please close your eyes! Knight, please open your eyes! Knight, please close your eyes! King, please open your eyes! Knight, please raise your hands! King, please close your eyes!!! Will the assassin initiate the assassination?!"
The assassins discussed secretly using sign language and decided not to take action in the first round. Without any intelligence, it was too dangerous to kill a person. Killing civilians was fine, but if they killed the knights, there would be one less person in the camp.
"It's dawn. No action took place yesterday,"
The director's words made everyone fall into deep thought again. They needed to think carefully about why the assassin did not take action, and they also needed to figure out why everyone was not the assassin.
Gao Lang was the first to speak according to the order of speeches just now. "I am definitely a good person. I was the first to speak just now. My words are quite credible."
Song Xian nodded thoughtfully and said, "I don't have any information to provide to you. I can only say that the king has kept his identity information hidden.
It was Su Yunshu's turn to speak next. She held her chin and thought for a while. "I think the assassin didn't attack in the first round. In addition to being afraid of killing someone by mistake, he might be waiting for us to become suspicious of each other and reveal flaws. So we have to speak carefully and don't let him take advantage of us."
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
Then it was Si Nian's turn. "I agree with Su Yunshu. I don't have any special information, but I think it would be suspicious if someone was too eager to distance themselves from the matter or to identify others."
…………
Jin Bei: "I feel like we can try to share some details. Although the assassin hasn't taken any action, there may be other small moves."
Ren Xiao crossed his arms and said, "I still say that my identity is very important. But I now suspect that someone is confusing us and deliberately blurring the point. Everyone should be careful of this kind of person."
After everyone expressed their opinions, the second round of description was completed.
The director spoke again, "It's dark, please close your eyes. Assassins, please open your eyes, assassins, please choose a target..." The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone held their breath, wondering whether the assassins would take action this time.
The assassin slowly opened his eyes and scanned everyone's faces one by one.
Finally, his eyes stopped on Gao Lang, and he raised his hand and pointed at him gently.
Seeing this, the director silently took note and signaled the assassin to close his eyes.
"It's dawn. Gao Lang was eliminated last night. His identity is a civilian. Gao Lang is eliminated. The assassination team will suspend one assassination opportunity," the director announced.
Everyone sighed. This was such bad luck. They didn't expect to be chosen by the assassin so early.
Song Xian frowned. "It seems that the assassin wants to disrupt our rhythm and make us lose our composure."
Su Yunshu continued, "That's right. We must be more cautious from now on and not expose our thoughts so easily."
Si Nian also nodded in agreement, but Jin Bei suddenly pointed at Ren Xiao and said, "I've always thought you were weird. You're the last one to speak in every round. You just need to combine our previous speeches."
Ren Xiao remained calm and responded slowly, "My last speech was just a rule. Should I be suspected because of this? According to your logic, wouldn't the first speaker be the most innocent?"
Jin Bei was speechless for a moment. She was always outspoken and never controlled her words. When she quarreled, she always relied on her loud voice, and once the other person was right, she dared not say anything.
