Chapter 64: Gambling on Needle Tips 6

  Quietly watching the dying campfire, An Yi's eyes flickered.

  Entering the night with an impasse of immortals, if the thieves can't think of a suitable way out, they can only break through violently!

  A dagger falls, a yamen plaque is stolen, and the thief leaves behind a will! The first yamen officer will definitely be killed! After all, according to what the old man in the 15th Western-style suit said, if they enter the dark night without dying, the doctor won't have to drop the needle between the two teams!

  Then... directly enter into the third night!

  On the third night, the doctor will definitely subconsciously go to give injections to the remaining two yamen in the yamen team. But... if this needle is wrong, the good people's camp will basically lose!

  Even if An Yi killed a thief on the third night, it would be useless!

  After all, since the doctor misinjected the needle, it means that among the remaining two yamen runners, one will be stabbed to death and the other will have a needle mark on his head!

  Then at that time the third thief who was left, just continued to commit suicide in fear of punishment! At that time, did the doctor give acupuncture to the only remaining official or not?

  If you don't get an injection, the thief will pull out his knife and the policeman will be stabbed to death; if you do get an injection, the thief won't pull out his knife and the doctor will be beaten to death!

  That is to say, as long as the thief is afraid of being punished, on the third night, the doctor will come out with a needle. If he makes a mistake, it's very likely that he'll lose! If he continues to make mistakes on the fourth night, then he'll definitely lose!

  Unless... unless the doctor gave his consent on the third night and also on the fourth night, then there is still hope!

  In other words, if a thief is afraid of the law, on the third or fourth night, as long as one stitch goes wrong, it's very likely to be all over!

  And... by the fifth day, there were still five or six cards that hadn't been checked!

  If the 2nd light yellow suit youth is a yamen team, then there will be six cards that have not been checked; if the 4th sable fur coat man is a yamen team, then there will be five cards that have not been checked.

  The doctor may end up hastily injecting both bailiffs in this situation!

  A chance to kill two birds with one stone, and gamble with the doctor's needle! The thief has a great hope of killing an officer. Even... if lucky, can kill all officers!

  Even if the thief was extremely unlucky, two knives couldn't kill a single officer, but...

  At the time, there were actually still five cards or six cards that hadn't been checked!

  If the thieves really use this violent method, then Team 2's light yellow suit youth will have six cards left unchecked if they are the constables; and Team 4's sable fur coat man will have five cards left unchecked if they are the thieves.

  Of course, it's not ruled out that the yamen runner got lucky and caught the last thief. But... what if?

  And if the thieves really use this method, it's possible that three notorious thieves who are afraid of punishment and kill themselves with three knives would be enough to kill all three bailiffs!

  An Yi's face sank a little bit by bit.

  This method has a bit of a gamble element, but if you think about it from another perspective, if the thief can't come up with a better way to break through, then this method is undoubtedly the best!

  At this thought, An Yi's eyes suddenly twitched. He couldn't help but suspect the identity of the old man in the 15th worn-out suit again.

  No. 15 old-fashioned western man knew this method of flat voting, wouldn't he also know that using violence to break the deadlock is a way out for thieves?

  An Yi dares to affirm that this 15-year-old old-fashioned western man must know this method of violent breaking through the thief!

  But if you know, why not speak out and remind the doctor in advance?

  The thief's use of this violent method is crucially dependent on the doctor!

  The second knife, that is, the one from the third night, as long as the doctor doesn't go to the yamen to confess, he can cut off the path of the thief!

  In other words, if the thief is really afraid of punishment, then the doctor doesn't need to use a needle!

  Let the thieves kill the first two bailiffs and only save the third one! Only in this way can we avoid the possibility of sewing a wrong needle.

  Only in this way can we ensure that the yamen can survive until the fourth day. As for the rest... it depends on whether the yamen can find the last thief or not!

  After all, with at most eight or nine unknown identities, the probability of finding the thief in at least three attempts is not small.

  Otherwise... if the doctor makes a mistake with the needle on the third night, he will probably lose; if he also makes a mistake with the needle on the fourth night... then he will definitely lose!

  The doctor's difficulty in threading a needle on the heads of two yamen is undoubtedly much greater than that of threading a needle on one yamen!

  But why didn't the old man in the 15th suit remind the doctor in advance?

  Is the old man in suit No. 15 a thief?

  Frowning, An Yi's face was full of surprise and uncertainty.

  But if the old man in the 15th suit was a thief, why didn't he stop his accomplice from stealing on the first night?

  Isn't this a waste of effort! As I said before, isn't he afraid that others on the scene will know about this method and expose all the loopholes?

  This is completely contradictory!

  And this tie has a great deal of randomness!

  If it weren't for An Yi's support, it would be almost impossible for the old man in the 15th suit to get naked votes. After all, if only the old man in the 15th suit agrees with this method, others may think he is a thief cheating on naked votes!

  But why didn't the old man in the worn-out suit on the 15th remind the thief that there might be a violent ending?

  An Yi's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.

  Wait!

  An Yi suddenly stiffened for a moment, thinking of a possibility!

  If, if...if the old man in the 15th suit was that doctor, did he have to remind the doctor of this matter?

  Because Old Man 15 was that doctor, he subconsciously forgot to remind himself of this crucial point!

  He took out his medical license and tried hard to pretend to be a doctor!

  But... a fake is still a fake!

  In this case, it seems like it can barely be explained...

  Although he thought the old man in the 15th suit was likely to be a doctor, An Yi still couldn't confirm it 100%. At the same time, his mind slowly shifted and analyzed the three people on the surface of the thief, considering the possibility that they were just pretending.

  After some thought, An Yi once again ruled out the possibility that the thief would directly use a sewing needle to commit the crime.

  Unless... unless the thief made a mistake in issuing the first ID card, he would be afraid of punishment and gamble with his life, otherwise it doesn't make much sense.

  If it goes on like this, the bandits will probably lose too much. Will the bandits wait stupidly for death? Anyway, An Yi doesn't believe that the bandits will do so!

  But...

  The brief darkness receded, and the figure of a 10-year-old girl in a plain long dress emerged from the shadows.

  A greasy steel wire appeared, wrapping around the ankles, waist and chest of a 10-year-old girl in a plain long dress, binding her entire body in circles. Then...

  The two ends of the steel wire rope were tightened bit by bit.

  The girl in a plain white No. 10 dress with her body bound by steel wire rope full of oil stains, slowly began to deform and twist.

  The internal organs were gradually squeezed out of the body of the No. 10 plain-colored long skirt girl until... The body of the No. 10 plain-colored long skirt girl was completely strangled into a bloody and blurred mess.

  "Number Three, is that so? Didn't you say you had a special identity?" The girl in the plain long dress with the number 10 on it spoke in a calm and quiet tone, but there was a hint of annoyance: "Why did we investigate you, only to find out you're just an ordinary citizen?"

  "Hehe. ID number three, that's it." The girl in the light-colored long dress numbered 10 sighed: "I've been cut off, exit from gate two."

  "Ha. Are you guys going to cut yourselves too?" The girl with the single-shoulder strap on her school uniform No. 11 glanced at them and said, "If you have what it takes, then you should also cut yourselves tomorrow night! If you don't, I'll look down on you!"

  "It's all about balance, you think you can just take a shortcut and become a noble?" The girl with the single-shoulder strap sneered.

  "Last night's search was a disappointment, the 14th one turned out to be a civilian! Since we didn't find anything special, let my second-in-command and companion come out. Let's wait for the next inspection." The girl with a single shoulder strap, No. 11, looked displeased.

  "Ha! Ha! Ha! So, Number Eleven, you're saying that tomorrow you'll still be trying to knife us?" The young man in the number 12 beach shorts sneered: "If we get knifed, can we say it's self-inflicted? You guys definitely only dare to knife us, but not yourselves! Because you're afraid! You're afraid of being discovered by the inspectors and getting eliminated directly, which would be equivalent to wasting a self-knife!"

  12th Beach Shorts Youth cursed a few mouthfuls: "Tsk, tsk, it's not going well, this 14th round might turn against the people! Snipers are ready at all times! Once the 14th turns against the people, you're ready to open fire and kill tonight!"

  "Feeling, feeling......" The 13th ponytail girl bit her lip and hesitated for a moment: "I feel that No. 12's speech is not good."

  "The feeling of No. 12's speech, subconsciously thinks that No. 14 is a good identity. But... but..." The little ponytail girl hesitated again: "But if you're the constable, shouldn't you question whether No. 14 might be an accomplice to No. 11's thief?"

  "After all, there are four thieves, and it's possible for the thief to give himself a fake ID to pass off as his companion?" The little girl with pigtails on the 13th number bit her lip: "But in the subconscious of No. 12's speech, he thinks that No. 14 must be of good status! How strange!"

  $$14, with a messy haircut, covered his cheeks and glanced in the direction of No. 12, who was wearing beach shorts in the dark: "Actually, I also think that No. 12 is just a thief. What kind of nonsense is this? He even said he's waiting for me to make a comeback?"

  "That's right, I want to rebel against this people's certificate! But it was the 12th who made me rebel. Can I? The 14th Mo Xi styled his hair: "I am indeed a people, and the people's certificate issued on the 11th is correct."

  "Number 12, aren't you just waiting for someone to turn against you? Well, just wait then. I estimate that Number 3 will turn against you and take you down! At that time... Ha! Self-inflicted wound plus being turned against, and another one will be taken out! You'll have a great time!" Number 14, Mo Xi, sneered with a cold smile.

  $$The old man in the 15th suit habitually adjusted his glasses frame: "It seems that there's nothing for me to do for now."

  "Let's hear what No. 3 has to say first. If No. 3 is against the people, then No. 4 will come out. If No. 3 is not against the people, then No. 2 will come out." The old man in the worn-out Western-style suit summarized and concluded early, and went down to vote.

  "Right." The old man in the 15th suit paused for a moment: "The doctor gave someone an injection last night, right? Tonight, remember to change to another one! Don't accidentally kill someone with one shot, after all, there are unknown identities on the scene that can't be defined. What if you accidentally kill a sniper? In any case, tonight, Doctor, you choose someone who might be a thief and give them an injection."
