Chapter 98 It's a Natural Progression
Qi Xia raised her head blankly. The person telling the story now had become Officer Li.
"My name is Li Shangwu, from Inner Mongolia. I am a criminal police officer." Officer Li said calmly, "Before coming here, I was guarding a fraudster."
"But I made a mistake. I obviously waited for that person, but I got into a struggle with him during the earthquake."
"He knocked me out and I came here."
The original long story now only became three sentences.
Everyone told the same story, but at this moment Officer Li was acting very abnormally.
Fortunately, only Qi Xia remembers what happened.
"Interpol?" Xiao Ran exclaimed at this moment, "You are a police officer, why don't you think of a way to save us?"
"Because I..." Officer Li was stunned for a moment, "To be honest, I don't know how to take everyone out. If I have that opportunity, I will definitely do my best."
"What kind of nonsense is this?" Xiao Ran asked in confusion, "You are a policeman, you should investigate and find a solution yourself! Do you think every time there is a murder case, you always say "I don't know who the murderer is" "Who" can close the case? "
"This is different..." Officer Li shook his head, "What I can do now is too limited. I can only try my best to save everyone's lives..."
The more Xiao Ran spoke, the more excited he became, and he pointed directly at the human-goat beside him: "Isn't this the 'murderer'? Just arrest him! ! "
"That's enough." Qi Xia couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted, "Is it annoying that you keep yelling and screaming?"
Qiao Jiajin also nodded: "Isn't Tiaozi a human being? We can't move now. The power of life and death lies in the hands of the sheep-headed man. What do you want Tiaozi to use to arrest him?"
"You...!" Xiao Ran wanted to argue, but suddenly he saw Qi Xia's cold eyes and Qiao Jiajin's strong arms, and instantly knew that these two people were definitely not kind-hearted.
She understood that people with such eyes were different from the police. She could keep yelling at the police, and the police would never dare to be rude, but she could not mess with the two men in front of her.
"I...I'm just too scared." Xiao Ran looked aggrieved, shook his head and said, "Oh, maybe I trust the police too much."
"Yin and yang are weird, bullying good and fearing evil." Qi Xia snorted coldly, "You are not a "liar" who is sowing discord, are you? "
"How is that possible?!" Xiao Ran yelled, "How could I be a "liar"? Don't spit on me! "
"Oh?" Qi Xia nodded, "Since you are not a "liar", then what is written on your card? "
"It's written..."
Xiao Rang was about to blurt out, but was stunned for a moment.
The sheep-headed man never said anything about his identity card other than "Liar" from beginning to end.
He only said, "If a liar is drawn, he must lie."
If you want to clear your suspicions, you must reveal your identity in public.
But what is the word written by the other identity?
"The truther"?
"Ordinary people"?
"Participant"?
Or a blank card?
Xiao Ran felt that the blood in his body had gone cold, and he was so scared that he couldn't help himself.
The young man in front of him was so smart that he had forced himself into a desperate situation with just one sentence.
Several people were looking at Xiao Ran blankly at this moment, with rather confused expressions on their faces.
Yes, if they start to suspect that Xiao Ran is a "liar", then the situation will be a bit complicated.
According to the known rules, "there is and is only one liar" on the scene, and everyone thinks that person is themselves, so in theory there can be no other liars.
So they are now in a dilemma, wondering whether there may be "multiple liars."
"I, why should I tell you?" Xiao Ran saw that something was not going well, so he could only break the pot and argue, "What if you are the "liar" and just want to get the answer from me? "
Qi Xia nodded: "What you said makes sense. In that case, I'll take a gamble with you."
"A gamble...?"
"Yes, I shouted "three two one", and you and I shouted out the words on our cards at the same time, so that everyone present could judge whose identity was made up. "Qi Xia is going to treat Xiao Ran well here. There is no need to keep the black sheep.
"This..." Xiao Ran obviously hesitated.
Qi Xia sneered in her heart, if this was really a game of "there is only one liar", she would definitely die.
Because no one present knew what the other identity was, as long as Qi Xia swore out one identity, he would have won.
"three."
"two."
Qi Xia counted down with a stern expression.
Just when he was about to say the word "一", Dr. Zhao suddenly came out to smooth things over: "Hey, forget it..."
Qi Xia turned to look at him.
"Brother, we can't embarrass women. I don't think you two look like "liars." If you really want to vote, you should wait until everyone has finished telling their stories. "Dr. Zhao said with an apologetic smile.
Of course, it is impossible for Qi Xia to convict Xiao Ran as a "liar" here. After all, the real answer has yet to be revealed.
The subsequent game of "Sprung Bamboo Shoots after a Rain" also required the joint efforts of nine people. Xiao Ran could not die yet, so he agreed to Dr. Zhao's request.
"Okay." Qi Xia nodded, "As long as that woman stops pointing fingers at other people, I have no problem with it."
"How could I point fingers at you..." Xiao Ran pouted, revealing a lovable expression, "I was just too scared."
"Don't be afraid, I believe you." Dr. Zhao said with a smile.
After Officer Li finished telling the story, it was Ringo's turn.
She told the story of her encounter with an earthquake on the 26th floor.
Finally, it was Qi Xia.
Qi Xia also told his whole story.
When he finished, he couldn't help but sigh that "time" is really a very wonderful thing.
Although he knew everything that had happened, when he told the story for the second time, it was still quite different from the first time.
Including various grammars, wordings, and narrative order.
But look at the others, except Officer Li, they clearly didn't know what happened before, but they told the story exactly the same as the last time.
In this case, who is right? Who is wrong?
When Qi Xia finished telling the story, the sheep announced that everyone had entered a 20-minute free discussion time.
Qi Xia also asked the Sheep Man for another blank piece of paper and wrote down the formula he had written before word for word.
What happened next was almost logical.
Qi Xia led everyone to point the finger at the Sheep Man, and the Sheep Man shot himself again in front of everyone's surprise.
