Chapter 302: A Survival

After carefully observing half of the footprints, Lin Qi felt a chill in his heart.

It wasn't that the footprints were scary, but he found that although the details of the soles couldn't be seen, the footprints were small and it looked like they were left by a woman.

After Dr. Jenna died, Judy was the only woman here...no, there was me.

Could it be Judy? It doesn't look like it no matter how you look at it. But who else could she be? It can't be me. I am not really Mount Emei.

No, I know I'm not, but what would Judy think if she saw it? What will others think?

What a ruthless tactic to alienate someone, not only killing people, but also heartbreaking.

It was obviously for Judy and me.

Realizing all this, Lynch glanced nervously at the other two people. They didn't seem to notice the footprints. Judy was in a daze beside him, while Rooney was still checking at the waterhole.

Lin Qi secretly calmed down and acted as if he was going to help. He also went to the pool and approached the footprints without leaving any trace.

It doesn't matter, as long as I can erase the footprints, everything will be fine.

Blocking Judy's sight with her body and paying attention to Rooney's face, Lynch had slowly approached the footprints.

As long as I can destroy the scene, this alienation plan will not... Wait, what am I doing?

Almost about to stretch his legs to destroy the footprints, Lynch suddenly woke up. This was not like those detective dramas. In fact, other people were secretly observing. Once I was about to destroy the evidence, they all showed up and caught me on the spot. Completely speechless.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Lin Qi believed that he was not standing in the void and competing with the air.

Vision relies entirely on light, and Rooney has previously shown that he can deflect light, so no matter where he looks, it will not necessarily affect his ability to monitor his every move.

The ground is surrounded by moss, and moss itself is a type of plant. Carl Jones's power is related to plants. He can use vines to attack Salin from the air, so he may not be able to monitor this place from the air.

There are also Jack Adams' rats. There are obstacles everywhere. It would be too easy for a rat to hide. He can also spy here.

So, I was actually trying to destroy evidence in a sneaky way under everyone's watch?

It was a ridiculous scene, but Lynch couldn't laugh at all. He realized that when he was observing and speculating on others, others could also speculate on him.

Now the opponent has finally taken action. This group investigation is actually a killing game against him.

Got general.

Lynch stood by the footprints as if nothing had happened at this time, making no move to destroy the evidence, and quickly analyzing the situation in his mind.

No, it's not too bad.

The first is Judy. She is a cultist and is naturally separated from other people. Moreover, she knows many of my secrets. If she betrays me, the situation will be far worse than it is now. So at best, she could only be swayed around by people's persuasion, and she might not even know about it at all, and was just being used.

Then there are three men left. Carl Jones destroyed the central channel, but Rooney carefully inspected it and even touched such disgusting filth. Carl also privately exposed Rooney's identity as a church knight, and Jack also exposed Rooney's identity. They are not close to Karl either, indicating that the three of them are likely to be wary of each other and form their own system.

So when they suddenly join forces to make a plan, it is very likely that it is not a deliberate cooperation, but is driven by someone with intentions behind the scenes, just like the detective in the story leads others to watch the suspect jump into the trap. No, he doesn't even need to come forward himself, it's enough to lead others to doubt me.

Now he finally showed his fangs and conquered our army.

Lynch breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Rooney, who was looking at him sideways, wondering if he was ready to make a move, and then looked at Judy behind him, who was not in a good situation, and suddenly narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Hello General, what's the best way to deal with the General?

Of course I flipped the table and raised your chessboard, so I let you play.

Taking a few steps back lightly, Lynch moved away from the footprints, and Rooney's back paused for a moment. Although there was no actual movement, Lynch could feel the pressure in the air suddenly relaxing a bit.

As expected, you are staring at me, then I will help you.

Just after taking two steps back, Lin Qi suddenly stepped forward and returned to the footprints. When he felt the pressure suddenly increase, he stepped back again and stayed away from the footprints.

There is no mistake, let’s get started.

Quickly distanced himself from Rooney, Lynch bravely retreated to Judy, and suddenly clapped his hands. The solitary applause sounded particularly strange in the dark and silent environment.

"You two, come out too. Since everyone has lost patience, come out and explain everything clearly." Lynch raised his voice, his tone was brisk and calm, "Everyone knows that we have a traitor among us, and now we are here In such a situation, only traitors dare not talk openly. So, do you two still want to hide?"

Rooney turned around suddenly and looked at Judy. He didn't move rashly, but moved a few steps away with a gloomy expression. Judy... just tilted her head and glanced at Lynch with a confused look on her face, as if to say: What are you talking about? ? I do not know.

Tsk, girl, stop pretending.

Sure enough, after a few minutes of silence, the stone door leading to the central corridor quietly opened, and the handsome Carl Jones and the bearded Jack Adams had already rushed over from the front tomb.

Carl Jones is no longer as tired as before, but his expression is quite familiar. Jack Adams is still the same as before, holding a wine bottle and looking drunk, except for a pair of mouse-like beady eyes that swivel around from time to time.

"Gee, everyone has finally gathered together. Since we set off, we haven't sat down and chatted. I miss the days in the entertainment room before departure." Lin Qi covered his face with a fan and said with a sweet smile, "Everyone has his or her own way. Everyone has their own identity, and with so many things going on, shouldn’t we have a good chat in person?”

"What's there to talk about?"

The two of them strode over and each stood at a corner. They all distanced themselves from each other and faced each other. Carl Jones said solemnly:

"Mr. Rooney has recognized your identity. You are a cultist of the Swollen Daughter and an emissary sent by the evil god. Your appearance itself is very suspicious. The person who saved Salin in the end must be you, the last person the doctor contacted before the accident. It’s you too, you left footprints here again, what else do you have to explain.”

"I used to call her a beautiful lady, but now I call her a cultist." Lin Qi smiled and asked, "So, then I should do my best to promote this ceremony. Why did I kill people for no reason, and killed two people in a row?" A? Isn’t this destroying the ceremony?”

"Although we don't know the specific content of the ceremony, Dr. Jenna said that the ceremony can be carried out even if only one person is left." Carl Jones said bitterly, "You saw Salin contacting the outside, so kill him first After killing him and knowing that the doctor was related to the Archaeological Association, you have to eliminate all unstable factors and ensure that the ceremony goes smoothly. "

Hiss, that makes sense. I was almost convinced.

"And for cultists like you, the reasons don't matter." Rooney also snorted, "You are twisted and can kill for any reason."

"Shut up, I don't want to talk to you now." Lynch raised his eyebrows, and said coldly with a lowered expression, "We will settle the accounts later, we don't have time now."

Rooney opened his mouth, but was speechless for a long time.

Lynch turned to the others and said with a smile on his face: "Now that everyone has gathered, I will perform a magic trick for everyone to cheer up."

"Become a living person."
