Vol 5 Chapter 81: The real man behind the scenes

Yusaku Kudo took a breath and slowly approached the man, and said, "You should be very strange, why should I say you lied. Do you remember that you once claimed to be a mountaineering enthusiast? That's what you told me. , You are a complete liar."
Ma Wei Rongte thought about it, then turned around.
This man no longer had the wretchedness and embarrassment of the past. Now, he slowly sat on the sand in front of everyone, raised his legs, took a cup of hot tea on the side, and took a sip.
Ding……
The sound of cups and plates touching each other filled the entire villa.
"You said you are a mountaineer. After that, I went to check the shoes of all seven of us. Among the seven, I excluded me, my wife, Aizen, Julia and Alice who I knew. Two smaller shoes. After that, there are hiking boots for you and Richard. One of these two hiking boots is very new, with almost no scratches. The other pair seems to be worn often, There are scratches everywhere on the upper. Which of these two shoes do you think is yours."
Rongte laughed and said, "Does this still need to be said? Of course it is the shoes covered with scars. For climbing, there are many sharp rocks on the mountain. It is natural to be scratched."
"..."
Rongte thought he was smart. As a result, before Yu Kudo could explain, Richard next to him immediately showed a surprised and surprised expression.
The fat man rushed to Rongte and said.
"No, it's totally wrong. The shoes of a real mountaineer should be good. It is definitely not a broken shoe with scratches."
Rongte's expression instantly solidified, and he blankly raised the cup with his hands, and stopped moving.
Yusaku Kudo nodded and said, "There is nothing wrong with it. Due to the danger of mountaineering, good equipment is always a priority. A good mountaineer will take good care of his equipment. Even if it is messy on sharp rocks. Wherever possible, I will try my best to look for gentle slopes, instead of allowing my shoes to be full of scratches. Only beginners will let the shoes be covered with various marks and damage their equipment."
The relaxed smile on Ronte's face disappeared once again.
He lowered his head again, looking at the cup of tea, and also at the reflection of his brown pupils inside.
"You are not a skilled mountaineer. Perhaps you are not even a beginner. You just come to the foot of the mountain and go up the mountain after loading up with equipment. Then, you think that the more scars on your shoes, the more mountains you have climbed. , I deliberately scratched so many wounds on the shoes. Waiting here again, quietly waiting for our characters to appear in this villa one by one."
Having said that, Richard finally put down his teacup with a snap.
He gritted his teeth and said fiercely again: "You're wrong. I'm just a mountaineer. I didn't even know you would be here. All this was just an accident."
"No, it's not an accident. Even the accident we encountered while climbing is within your scope of observation."
"Accident? Did you say that avalanche? What's the matter? Why do you say that I am the owner of the villa?"
"...Rongte, Brad. If I remember correctly, you came out to open the door for us when my wife and I came to the villa for the first time. Then, you complained like that..."
"'Victims? Please close the door after you come in, OK? It's cold to death.'"
Rongte was taken aback, and said, "This... I did say that, so what?"
"How? There is a big problem in this sentence. That is, why did you think we were...the victims?"
"……Uh!"
Yusaku Kudo spread out his hands and sneered.
"This gem villa was originally intended to arrange a rest for the climbers while climbing.
Therefore, it is actually a normal thing for someone to come to this villa. Even if the snow is heavy outside, after coming to this villa, the term "victim" cannot be used. Instead, it is more appropriate to use words like ‘passenger’. That being the case, why was your first reaction when you saw my wife and me, but it was the "victim"? "
Rongte's eyes rolled, and he quickly responded, "Ah, that's because I happened to see the avalanche outside. Ah, that avalanche was really big enough. I thought no one could come up again. ."
"Hey……"
"You...what's wrong with you?"
Yusaku Kudo took a breath, closed his eyes, and said slowly.
"Your words happen to be digging your own grave."
"what?"
"Miss Alice, I ask you, do you know what happened to us before entering the cabin."
Alice gave him a surprised look and shook her head.
"Then, do you see an avalanche outside. Or rather, hear the sound of an avalanche."
"This... I really didn't hear... because once the snow on the mountain blows up, visibility is terrible. Sometimes you can't see your five fingers even if you stretch out your hand. As for the sound... so loud. The howling of wind and snow is hard to hear, right?"
Alice replied, and Alice’s answer made Wonte's mouth completely open and unable to speak.
"Now, tell me. Why did you know that it is an avalanche? Under such a blizzard, it is completely impossible to'see'. In other words, you have "created" the avalanche. For the top of the mountain where the ice and snow have first melted, Only a few guided bombs can easily create an avalanche. In fact, we did hear an explosion-like sound before the avalanche arrived."
"You are a beginner in mountaineering, but you claim to be a musician here. You said something you shouldn’t know, and made a judgment that violates common sense. You ignored the victory that could have been achieved directly, and protected your needs. Protected gamer. So now, what reason do you have to tell me, you, are not the master of this game, the'Master of the Villa'?"
...
………Ha ha.
Wonte, smiled.
After a not too long silence. The corner of his mouth finally raised a smile.
After a round of chuckles that were completely different from his previous image, this person slowly raised his head, revealing the yellowish-brown pupils under his golden head.
"Really...very awesome. Mr. Yusaku Kudo."
The man shook his head, slowly, sighed, and said.
"It's a pity that it wasn't Richard who realized all this, but you, an outsider I accidentally found. This really makes me feel imperfect. This game...Hi."
"Hi what hi? Your identity has been recognized by us. Now, you must stop this game immediately"
Alice yelled out loudly, which was clearly what many people thought. ..
