Chapter 46:

After Ruan Bai figured it out, he paused, but didn't make much reaction.
She still didn't understand what the boy's "get away" was meant to express. If she had left the kitchen, she had already come out, but if she were to leave the room, it would be impossible.
She is already a player, no matter what, she must stay here and clear the game for three days.
This is the rule.
It's just that the shape of the boy's mouth before he disappeared, still making Ruan Bai unavoidably feel a little trance.
The reason is also very simple, because she has already encountered a similar situation.
In the second round of the game, before the dean of No. 4 Middle School disappeared, he did similar behavior to her.
She gestured to Ruan Bai with a DSAS company icon and shook her head at Ruan Bai.
At that time Ruan Bai didn't understand what it meant to shake his head, but when he thought of Uncle Shen's end, Ruan Bai realized it instantly.
The teaching director meant that she, who was already aware of it, should stop paying attention to DSAS.
These ghosts may really have their own thoughts, and even know more than the players!
After this, Ruan Bai narrowed his eyes subconsciously.
In this case, she is not sure if it is a coincidence... So in order to verify the guess, in this game, she must find more opportunities to contact the ghosts.
The owner of the castle adopted 14 children. Assuming that these 14 children will appear once in turn, if she tries her best, she can get along with ghosts and monsters more than ten times in one game!
After finishing the plan, Ruan Bai went to the restaurant with simple dishes and put them on the table at once.
The location of the restaurant is not far from the kitchen. It is a corner near the stairs. A long table is placed there. On the table is a tablecloth embroidered with a family of four eating patterns.
On both sides of the dining table, there are fourteen chairs neatly arranged.
On the back of each chair, there is a small sign hung with different names in immature handwriting, corresponding to different children.
When other players saw that they had food to eat, they all gathered.
They pulled away the dining room chairs at will and sat down in a hurry.
One of the male players seemed to be hungry, and without a word, he ran over and squeezed the others away and grabbed the top spot.
His movements were so lucrative that the female player on the side screamed and gave him a dissatisfied look.
But the male player thought he hadn't seen it, he laughed twice, and after sitting down he picked up his knife and fork and started eating.
Ruan Bai was the last one to sit down because he had to run around to serve food.
Only when she came to the restaurant, she saw Xue Se standing next to her alone and did not take a seat.
"Xue Se, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?"
Seeing Xue Se like this, Ruan Bai was stunned and looked at her in confusion.
"I feel a little uncomfortable," the girl nodded and said softly, "You can go to the toilet with me."
Ruan Bai heard it, and before he could reply, he saw Xue Se shook her head at her and quietly made a gesture.
Xue Se was telling her not to sit down.
When Ruan Bai realized this, his heart sank slightly.
She immediately changed her nervous and concerned look, nodded and agreed to accompany Xue Se to the toilet.
The two of them left the restaurant without even pulling their chairs away.
Ruan Bai could see that Xue Se probably wanted to go with her to a place where no one was there and explain something.
Without hesitating for too long, the two walked out together.
However, before they had taken a few steps, they heard a violent noise coming from the kitchen!
It seemed like someone was snorting, there was the sound of chairs colliding on the floor when the player left the table in a panic, faintly, and the crisp sound of a knife falling to the ground.
Immediately after, there was the high scream of the eldest lady.
"It's dead, it's dead!"
problem occurs!
Hearing this sound, Ruan Bai's footsteps stopped suddenly.
Snowy glanced back faintly, and the light brown eyes were very calm, without any waves.
"Do you know what's going on?" Ruan Bai lowered his voice when he saw this.
Xue Lu was like this, without any surprise at all, it seemed to have predicted in advance.
Xue Se nodded: "No accident, he should have sat in the chair of the dead boy."
When she said this, she frowned slightly: "The number of players is the same as that of children. I don't think this is a coincidence. Besides, if it is a family, why are there no chairs for parents in the restaurant?"
Therefore, Xuese felt that something was wrong with this restaurant.
She predicted what might happen in the restaurant, so before Ruan Bai took a seat, she found an excuse to take Ruan Bai away.
Ruan Bai felt like he heard this.
14 children, 14 players, 14 chairs.
If the chairs in the dining room correspond to each child, the player who sits on the boy's ghost chair in the kitchen will die, which seems not very surprising.
Ruan Bai went back lightly and took a look, and found that the player who had fallen down was the player who grabbed the front row seat at the beginning.
His body fell to the floor, the chair was overturned, and the small wooden sign with the name "billy" fell to the ground.
And the blood-stained kitchen knife was stuck in his stomach.
The blood flowed slowly along his wound and fell on the carpet, staining the carpet with a black blood stain.
After the little boy disappeared, the kitchen knife was also gone.
I didn't expect it to appear again, it would be on this occasion.
"What happened, how did he die?"
"Where did the knife come from, has anyone seen it?"
Many of the players next to them were experienced, except for some surprises at first, they quickly devoted their energy to investigating the cause of death and exploring the rules of the game.
The players sitting opposite and next to the dead player also reacted, saying that the knife appeared out of thin air, and suddenly it was inserted into the male player's stomach.
"When eating just now, he seemed to be saying something," said the player sitting next to the dead man. "It's like someone calling him or asking him some questions, he responded, and then the knife Appeared."
Someone called him?
When Ruan Bai heard this, he cast his eyes on the male player who fell on the ground.
He died very quickly, without struggling or overreacting, as if he was asleep, he closed his eyes and fell.
Before he died, he was eating.
Seeing that they couldn't ask anything, the others went back to eat one after another.
Except for the fresh-faced newcomers, most of the old players behaved very calmly.
The eldest lady was even more straightforward, rolled her eyes and fainted, and was helped by her teammates and put it aside.
Ruan Bai and Xue Se looked at each other and returned to the restaurant.
In silence, they ate the first dinner.
After eating, it was already half past six.
Considering that the black-robed woman said that she could not go out before 8 o'clock in the evening, several players went upstairs and began to allocate rooms.
These rooms are very clean and medium in size, with two beds, separate toilet and bathroom, and there is a clock on the wall of the entrance.
Ruan Bai and Xue Se randomly picked a room, walked in, and hurryed to wash up before seven o'clock.
After all these things were resolved, the two sat on the bed together and began to analyze what had just happened and some of the death conditions that could be figured out in the game.
"I suspect that the male player who just died was repeating the death of the kid in the kitchen," Ruan Bai thought for a while and said, "I guess what happened to the male player was the experience of the little boy before his death."
She found paper and pen and wrote down the lyrics that were released on the third floor when the ghosts first appeared.
"In a quiet castle, there are fourteen children; the oldest sister went crazy and killed the oldest brother; dear father, dear mother;
Please tell us where did the kitchen knife go? "
"I paid attention to the ghost's body," said Ruan Bai, pointing to the second line of lyrics, "His body is the same as that of the player, with only a knife wound and no traces of struggle... So I think At the beginning, he should have eaten a meal that was drugged. After being unconscious, he was hacked to death by his sister."
If it's time to stay awake, then the little boy will resist anyway before he dies.
So obviously, his state before death was abnormal, and coupled with the behavior of the male player, it became clear how the boy died.
"So in this case... the role I play is the'biggest sister' in the lyrics," Ruan Bai thought for a while and continued, "This game may be to put the identities of those children on the players. "
There are only 14 seats in the restaurant, which either means that the adults do not eat with them, or it means that this place should only be occupied by children, and adults will not come here most of the time.
In this case, the eldest girls usually cook.
When the singing sounded, two main characters appeared in the lyrics, one was the "biggest sister" as the offender, and the other was the victim's "biggest brother".
It can be said that from the moment Ruan Bai agreed to cook and stepped into the kitchen, she was invisible and "claimed" the identity of the offender's eldest sister.
And the male player who sits in the boy's seat and eats the food she cooks is also actively "claiming" the identity of the victim.
Judging from the now empty castle, these children must be dead.
The next thing the player has to face is to reproduce the process of the child's death in turn.
Just become the perpetrator, the way to solve the dilemma will be easy, just follow the lyrics.
But once she becomes the victim, how can she escape death?
"I'm pretty much what you thought," Xue Se nodded after hearing her inference, "However, I also found something else."
She took a folded black and white photo from her backpack and showed it to Ruan Bai.
In the middle of the pattern, there are 14 children standing in a row. The oldest is only eight or nine years old, and the youngest is only three or four years old.
The children were wearing identical black robes, holding hands, and showing identical smiles to the camera.
And behind all the children, there is a man and a woman.
Their heads were not photographed in, and the top of the photo happened to cut their necks. Players could only see their bodies. Through their decent dressing, they could see that they were extraordinary.
This is a group photo of the children living in the castle.
Xue Se turned the photo over and found that the child's name was written on the back of the photo, from left to right, from the oldest to the youngest.
Among them, Ruan Bai recognized the name corresponding to the little boy, and as expected, it was "billy".
"You can sit around in a random position. There are more than a dozen people who ate the food. I think it should be more than two points that really caused the male player to die." Xue Se said lightly.
"If the other people didn't lie, and the male player was really called before his death, then it should be no accident that someone called him the name Billy, and he agreed."
The game will always give the player a chance to break the game, and will not fall into the dead of the player at the beginning.
The male player wasn't stabbed to death as soon as he sat down to eat, but he had eaten half of it, and then he had an accident after responding.
Regardless of the reason, whether he didn't hear clearly, or he responded casually, from the moment the male player responded, he was equivalent to admitting that he was billy.
Naturally, the identity of the little boy billy has since been implemented in him.
This was the main reason that caused him to receive a fatal blow.
The girl's finger flicked the ranking word, and finally, it landed on the name at the far right: "Your identity has been designated as the oldest sister, this should be your name."
Ruan Bai glanced at Cindy.
In the future, this name is likely to appear in front of her in various ways, and she should avoid admitting that she is Cindy as much as possible.
After the two of them simply clarified their thoughts, unconsciously, it was eight o'clock in the evening.
During the period, Xue Se also asked Ruan Bai if he had any plans.
"Yes," Ruan Bai thought for a while and told her, "I recently wanted to observe ghosts and understand their characteristics, so I will actively look for opportunities to approach them later."
Although Xue Se is young, she is very smart, calm and self-sufficient, and good at observing details, unlike a junior high school student.
More importantly, she is the player who entered the game for the second time. She is not an old man, nor does she have the fixed thinking of many old players in her mind.
Maybe in this game, Xue Se can find some details that she hadn't thought of before when facing the ghosts.
Xue Se listened to Ruan Bai's bold plan, but didn't show any expression of opposition, but just nodded to show that she knew it.
The two said a few more words, and when it was too early, they turned off the lights and lay down in bed ready to go to bed.
But before Ruan Bai fell asleep, the strange tune of singing came again outside the door!
"...The secondbrother learnedofthedeath,inthedarknightsecretlycrying;Onequietmorninghedreamedthathisyoungestsisterwasgrowinghorns;Dearfather,dearmother;Iwillcutofftheheadofdeath,protectmyhomeland......"
In the dead silence, the children's chorus voice echoed clearly throughout the castle.
Someone triggered the crisis again.
Ruan Bai opened his eyes suddenly when he heard this sound.
She turned on the light, looked at the time on the wall, and found that it was only half past eight.
It was only three hours since the last time the singing sounded.
Something's wrong... The frequency of this song is too frequent.
