Chapter 51 Betrayal (4)

  "I also think No. 3 is a thief."

  At the age of twenty, No. 10, who had just revealed his figure, wore a big red Tang suit. Only...

  A festive red traditional Chinese garment with a majestic and powerful... tall hat embroidered on it.

  "No. 9 has become the thief in my mind, although I don't think No. 9 is a cop, but I think No. 9 is a good guy." No. 10 Gao Da Tangzhuang man said with a swagger, flipping his hair. However, No. 10 Gao Da Tangzhuang man's hair wasn't particularly long, and despite his occasional flips, his hair didn't have the slightest bit of flair.

  "No. 3 is too exaggerated! Overacting! Bad review!" No. 10 Gundam Tanaka stretched out an index finger, seemingly wanting to shake it, but due to his stiff fingers, ended up shaking his wrist instead.

  "It's suggested that the yamen runners check No. 9 tonight, if No. 9 is a civilian, then directly take down No. 3 in the next round." The man with the high hairdo, No. 10 Tang, raised his right hand and smoothed out his hairstyle.

  "The speeches of the people in front just now, all seem to be no big deal, except for No. 8..." The figure of No. 11 'exposed' with a gloomy face.

  A close-fitting black leather jacket, a square-inch hairstyle, sharp facial features, plus an age of around thirty or so, and the neatly trimmed beard on his chin and cheeks, absolutely the type that many girls admire.

  "No. 8's speech sounds 'pretty' nutritious, but with a little thought, it can be found that they are all irrelevant questions." The black leather jacket man No. 11 frowned slightly: "No. 13 must not be the thief who is out of the game. If the thief kills himself, how can he recognize another thief?"

  "As for whether No. 13 is a scarecrow or a human, that's not the point. It feels like No. 8 is looking for a scarecrow. But...” The black-jacketed man, No. 11, hesitated: “But what No. 8 said sounds like he's trying to find out who the scarecrow is. Even if he is a thief, there's no need for him to take the risk of finding the scarecrow.”

  "Of course, it's not ruled out that No. 8 is really dizzy. But if No. 8 is pretending to be dizzy, he must have a special identity card. Either he's an undercover cop or a fake-dizzy thief." The black-jacketed man, No. 11, sighed: "But I'm just a civilian, and I only dare to question the authenticity of No. 8's card, but I don't dare to confront him. It seems that it's up to the cops themselves to define what this card means for No. 8."

  Compared to An Yi's attire during the first contact, this time the suspected 'schizophrenic' patient in position 12 was not wearing that hospital gown with the words 'XX Second Schizophrenia' printed on it inside his jacket.

  Even... the golden-rimmed glasses on the bridge of the 12th suspected "schizophrenic" patient's nose, looked very scholarly, if not for An Yi having some understanding of him, he would have been taken for a worker in the education sector.

  "Number 15, come out and be killed. The others will be discussed later." Number 12, a suspected 'schizophrenic' patient, used his thumb to push the middle of his glasses slightly upwards.

  As the 12th suspected 'essence' spirit patient's shadow retreated into darkness, lanterns marked with different numbers floated before An Yi's eyes.

  After a slight hesitation, An Yi finally raised his hand and pointed at the lantern marked with the number fifteen.

  Her eyes scanned around, and her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

  Actually, just now An Yi reported that the 3rd Chrysanthemum 'flower' yellow cucumber earrings youth was killed, not because An Yi thought the 3rd Chrysanthemum 'flower' yellow cucumber earrings youth should be killed. But...

  It's just a casual report! To put it bluntly, An Yi is simply nonsense!

  In the case where 16-year-old pseudo-girl, No. 1 Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse T-shirt girl are likely to be eliminated, An Yi can only consider hiding himself from now on.

  As for how to hide? Be low-key, shrink a bit, and it seems that the possibility of being cut is smaller. But what about the facts?

  In An Yi's opinion, being low-key... can block knives. The lower the profile, the easier it is to get stabbed when thieves can't find the officials.

  An Yi is a yamen runner, but he has no interest in blocking knives. Especially in this situation!

  The more upright and proper the constable is, the less likely the thief will believe he's a constable, and the less likely he'll get hurt. At least that's how An Yi sees it!

  His gaze lingered on the darkness around him, An Yi's face changed slightly from time to time, and various thoughts flashed in his mind.

  The brief voting time ended with the kindling of a robust flame in the brazier, and the results were displayed on the parchment above.

  Full vote! The unexpected yet expected voting result has appeared, and the 15th white-haired girl was unexpectedly eliminated with a full vote.

  That's right, it's unanimous! Because... even the 15-year-old white-haired girl voted for herself!

  As he looked at the voting results, An Yi's eyes twitched slightly, and at the same time, the figure of the 15th white-haired girl appeared out of the darkness.

  A bright beam of light, at the moment when the 15-year-old girl in white appeared, emerged in the starry night sky and poured down, shining on the 15-year-old girl in white.

  The beam of light did not dispel the surrounding darkness, but illuminated the figure of a 15-year-old girl in white, her image clearer than ever.

  Her face was calm, and there were no signs of any emotional changes on the face of the white-haired girl No. 15. Perhaps she was calm in her heart, or perhaps... this existence had frozen the expression of the white-haired girl No. 15.

  As the light pillar appeared, the 15-year-old white-haired girl's body slowly floated into the air.

  The 15-year-old girl in white, already filled with a quiet aura, slowly floated up under the illumination of the light pillar, existing like a holy angel at this moment.

  It's just...

  When the 15-year-old white-haired girl's body floated to a certain height, the mysterious power that existed in the darkness suddenly dissipated, followed by...

  With a thud, the 15-year-old girl in white fell straight to the ground.

  A blurry existence of flesh and blood, stuck in the original position of the 15-year-old girl in white sweater, it is impossible to see any outline of the original 15-year-old girl in white sweater in that pile of existence.

  The bonfire went out, darkness had just fallen, and everything that entered his eyes made An Yi stunned for a moment.

  Since getting in touch with Zhongshan, Uncle Zhang has always given An Yi a gentle and peaceful feeling, but at this moment...

  The uncle wearing No. 4 Zhongshan suit had a rather unsightly complexion.

  Not only that, but the No. 4 Zhongshan uncle glared at the No. 16 fake voice 'girl' and scolded in a low voice: "Do you know that if you do this, you will kill everyone?"

  "What's wrong with me?" The No. 16 fake little 'girl' spoke in a stubborn tone, with a hint of discontent.

  "What's wrong with you?" The voice of the middle-aged uncle in No. 4 Zhongshan attire became even deeper: "You reported that No. 15 is an unknown identity to be killed, what if she isn't a thief? What if the thief makes a move?"

  An Yi opened his mouth, wanting to try to persuade him, but in the end he just sighed silently and didn't say a word.

  Just after joining the team, it's not suitable for An Yi to speak the truth and try to mediate. Even if An Yi tries to persuade him, it may have the opposite effect.

  He slightly raised his eyelids and glanced at the No. 1 Tang Laoyan Mi Laoshu body warm 'girl' with a glance.

  Although An Yi is not suitable for speaking in a relaxed atmosphere, it does not mean that as an old man in the team, Tang Old Duck and Mickey Mouse are not suitable for speaking to 'girls'.

  Probably aware of the situation, No. 1 Tang Old Duck Mi Old Mouse hesitated with a pouted mouth: "Captain, she didn't mean to be like this... Besides, the current situation may not be that bad..."

  An Yi silently watched all of this and slightly shook his head.

  In An Yi's view, it was far more than just bad.

  If the thief is brazen enough, they can now take away the 16th fake little "girl" and the 1st Tang Old Duck Mickey Mouse sweatshirt "girl" with a farewell note.

  Of course... An Yi would never say such things, or else it would be adding fuel to the fire.

  The No. 4 Zhongshan-clad uncle's face changed color, and he let out a sigh. Although his expression was still not very good-looking, he didn't continue to scold the fake-voiced little girl No. 16.

  Just as An Yi's contradictions had temporarily passed...

  "I'm not wrong! Number 15 dared to make a fatal PK, although it didn't form a fierce jump, but he must be a thief! I believe my intuition!" The fake little girl in No. 16's voice spoke out again with a stubborn tone: "If I didn't do anything wrong, what right do you have to bully me?"

  "Hey!" The middle-aged uncle wearing a Zhongshan suit looked unwell: "Intuition? You've been through many experiences, how can you still be like this? Intuition? Maybe intuition is right once or twice, but what about three times? Four times? Relying on intuition, it's impossible to survive in this cruel environment! At least not for long!"

  He roughly realized that his tone was a bit heavy, and considering the young age of the fake little 'girl', Uncle Zhang in the No. 4 Zhongshan suit took a few deep breaths, restraining his emotions, and spoke kindly: "We are a team, especially one with an official identity. Yes! If we were a bandit team, perhaps we could disregard our teammates' lives, after all, the main route for bandits is to hide. But we are officials. And if we want to keep living, we shouldn't think too much about our teammates..."

  Uncle No. 4 Zhongshan's words were moderate and his tone was much calmer, at least in An Yi's opinion, there was no problem.

  But...

  "Teammate? Ha!" The fake little 'girl' with the No. 16 jersey suddenly let out a cold laugh, interrupting the words of the middle-aged uncle in the No. 4 jersey.

  Even...

  "Team member? Don't deceive me just because I'm young! He said the same thing back then, with the same words, but what happened in the end? Didn't he abandon everyone and enter the high-end arena by himself?" The fake 16-year-old girl's voice suddenly became agitated: "You think I'm young, so you think I don't understand anything? I just didn't say anything!"

  "When you get the right opportunity, will you still care about this so-called team? Will you? Will you?" The No. 16 pseudo-girl asked in a series of questioning voices.

  Because of the 16th fake voice little 'girl', whether it's the 4th Zhongshan suit uncle or the 1st Tang old duck and Mickey Mouse T-shirt 'girl' suddenly fell silent.

  An Yi's eyebrows jumped lightly.

  The 16th fake voice little 'girl' these words, in An Yi's ears sounded a bit inexplicable. At least as the newly joined team member An Yi, very clear about the specifics of this speech. Only...

  There were several key points, but they were noticed by An Yi.

  "Him"? "Opportunity"?

  Various possibilities flashed through his mind as An Yi fell silent and pondered the meaning behind the words of the fake little "girl" on the 16th.

  Thinking back to when he first joined the team with only three people, An Yi's eyes sparkled.

  This team used to have four people. Even through the fake voice of Little 'Girl', Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse's T-shirt 'Girl' attitude towards Uncle Zhongshan, An Yi felt that the fourth person might be the original captain of this team.

  It seems that for some reason, he abandoned this team.
