Chapter 495 The Optimal Solution
Fan Ru heard Chang Nian's calm analysis in the microphone, and her hand holding the phone was shaking slightly.
When the voice on the other side fell, she had already put away the flashlight and replaced it with a knife, and asked anxiously:
"Then I will start now and change the arrest time of all the introduction cards!"
Tongguan's answer was still so low and powerful, and the rational words pointed out the first step of action:
"There is no time to change all the introduction cards. You only need to solve the prisoner's room that will be revived the fastest.
Rooms 3, 6, 7, 13, and 14."
Although the voice on the other side of Tongguan did not seem to be particularly loud, it seemed that there was still some doubt about this way of life.
But Fan Ru's heart was already surging. Before the words on the other side were finished, she had already arrived at the door of Room 3.
The introduction card is a metal plate embedded in the wall.
The gray background made the strange red light unable to illuminate, and the handwriting engraved on it was neat and tidy, which made people recognize it immediately, which shows the strength of the engraving.
The special information representing ghosts is the horizontal, vertical, left and right strokes on these iron plates.
Fan Ru was holding the handle of the knife, and his eyes were full of the bottom line:
"Arrest time: January 1, 2008"
Tongguan's words were still echoing in the mobile phone microphone. He was guiding Fan Ru to tamper with it in the fastest and most labor-saving way.
There was no need to worry about the month and date, just changing the year was enough to achieve the goal.
In fact, he didn't need to teach him, Fan Ru was still smart in this low-level technique.
In fact, with the addition of the Tongguan couple and more and more mission cases, the newcomers had already completed various learning and training while waiting for the mission.
The sound of the sharp blade rubbing on the metal plane was not pleasant, and it would only evoke discomfort in the hearts of the living.
But Fan Ru still used the fastest speed to carve an extra bend at the end of the "2" in "2008".
"2" became "3", "2008" became "3008".
The past time, in the blink of an eye, became a distant year, so the things that existed before should fall into the future.
Fan Ru nervously poked her head out and took out a flashlight to illuminate the quiet Room 3.
She said nothing, but her heart was beating wildly, her blood was flowing backwards, and she was looking forward to the result with longing and fear.
On the other end of the phone that was always connected, Tongguan, Chang Nian, and Jie Zheng also held their breath and dared not speak.
Until Fan Ru's face stained with dried blood slowly squeezed out a weird smile, and then laughed.
The loud laughter shattered the previous despair and fear like a wave, and became the only sound on both ends of the phone.
…
Chang Nian took a long breath, threw the braid on her chest behind her back, and was also infected by Fan Ru's laughter, sitting on the table and swinging her legs.
Hong Fu stared at the phone on the side, his eyes flashed a few times, and he also scratched his head and laughed foolishly.
Just a moment later, they all found that Tongguan and Jie Zheng still hadn't let go of the tight string, and the two were still staring at the photos on the table.
"What's wrong? Didn't we find a way out?" Chang Nian put his hand on Tongguan's tense shoulders and asked softly.
But Tongguan still didn't look up, just started to divide the photos into groups again, without looking up:
"With so many ghosts, it won't be that simple."
He changed the subject and asked the phone on the table in a deep voice:
"Prisoner No. 3 succeeded, what's the current status?"
"All the tables and chairs inside disappeared, obviously all the supernatural powers have withdrawn!"
"Well done! Now you go to the remaining No. 6, No. 7, No. 13, and No. 14, and continue to tamper with the time."
Fan Ru was very busy, with waves of footsteps and the uncomfortable sound of knife friction.
Xie Zheng stood at the edge of Tongguan, took out a cigarette box from his arms, lit a cigarette for himself and said faintly:
"The success of Room 3 does not mean that it is the common way for all ghosts to survive.
Do you remember what Yu Guo said to us at that time?
The sixteen ghosts are numbered from 2 to 17, where did Prisoner No. 1 go?
The root of everything, the overall sense of disharmony of the Tangren Wax Museum has not been found.
I always think that even if we can deal with all the ghosts from 2 to 17, if we can't crack the root ghost child of the Tangren Wax Museum, Fan Ru will still not survive."
Chang Nian fell silent after hearing this, she slowly frowned and was about to say something.
But Tongguan raised her hand to interrupt her, stretched out her hand to ask Xie Zheng for a cigarette, but just held it in his mouth without lighting it.
"Wait, it's not over yet."
...
"Brother Tong! It's not right!
I have tampered with the arrest time of No. 13 and No. 14, but the wax figures in the house have not disappeared, nothing has changed!
Now the wax mud of No. 14 is almost completely peeled off!"
Sure enough, within two minutes, Tongguan heard Fan Ru's very surprised cry for help.
His eyelids jumped, and he spit out the unlit cigarette in his mouth, and quickly turned out the identity photos of prisoners No. 13 and No. 14.
The information on the introduction cards of No. 13 and No. 14 was taken more clearly.
In general, the light on the second floor seems to be much better than that on the first floor. At least the words on the introduction cards can be clearly illuminated.
"Identity: Prisoner No. 13;
Charge: Soul-sucking;
Arrest time: February 1866."
"Identity: Prisoner No. 14;
Charge: Grave digging;
Date of arrest: September 19, 1921. "
The method of tampering with the time of arrest is invalid, so there is only one answer:
These sixteen ghosts are real and fake.
The fake ones can be eliminated by tampering with the time, but ghosts like No. 13 and No. 14 are real.
There are other ways for these ghosts to survive.
And, I am afraid that the number will be quite large!
Tongguan read out the information of the first batch of wax figures that were about to be resurrected in a deep voice, but what is the use of this simple information.
He grabbed a handful of hair and shouted into the microphone:
"Sister Fan, tell me the situation in Room 14..."
But this time, he was interrupted by two photos thrown at him before he finished speaking. He raised his head and looked blankly at the end of the conference table.
Fang Shenyan's eyes were blocked, leaving only the light reflected on the lens. He said calmly:
"Prisoner No. 10, crime: stealing corpses and dressing up;
Prisoner No. 16, crime: sleeping with corpses;
You compare these two prisoners with Prisoner No. 14. Is there a clear logical chain? "
Tongguan's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Fang Shenyan with gratitude, and grabbed the two photos thrown to him.
"No. 14 digs graves, No. 10 steals corpses and disguises, No. 16 sleeps with corpses...
This is a whole series of sequences related to corpses!"
Jie Zheng squatted down anxiously, looking at the photos arranged by Tongguan in order, and suddenly realized.
"16 ghosts, all have internal connections through crimes.
Perhaps, we can classify these ghosts, eliminate them, and finally only keep a few ghosts! "
At this point, there is a sign of the clouds clearing up.
Because just after Jie Zheng finished speaking, Xiao Qianduye sent another three photos.
"Prisoner No. 5, crime: likes to eat heavenly spirits,
Prisoner No. 8, crime: rodent intestines,
Prisoner No. 9, crime: first crime. "
Xiao Qianduye walked to Tongguan with three photos, took out the photo of prisoner No. 3 again, and said in a cold voice:
"The first sin of human nature is gluttony, eating brains, biting intestines, and finally dying of gluttony.
No. 3, No. 5, No. 8, and No. 9 are the four stages of gluttony.
Now let Fan Ru change the engraving of room No. 3 back and integrate these four ghosts together.
In this way, we eliminated three ghosts, retained one ghost, and then integrated the other ghosts in the same way.
The single-digit ghosts that were finally integrated complemented and devoured each other according to the attributes of the crime.
This is the optimal solution for the survival of sixteen ghosts!"
