Surprise Hotel
Chapter 307 The Missing Man
Upon hearing this, the three immediately realized that this guy had dug another big hole in the boring plot.
All the scattered ones can be chained together, that is to say, the four seemingly unrelated side tasks are actually talking about one thing.
Lu Xing thought about it and couldn't think of how to connect them together.
This guy Ning Wuyi seemed to know everything, but he didn't know if it was due to the existence of the spoiler ban, and he dared not reveal more information to a few people.
?"Then we should investigate separately. This will be more efficient.?" Lu Xing said, "Then we will tell each other what we have discovered, and try to put all the clues together.?"
"I think it's ok?" Xianuo raised his hand in agreement.
The four moved separately, and each went to one house according to the previous assignment.??
Lu Xing went to Wang Po's house.
Before entering the door, far away, I heard the cry of the old woman in the courtyard.?
"My son, where have you been?"
Sad crying, accompanied by intermittent sobs.
Lu Xing pushed the door and entered, the sobbing in the room suddenly stopped, replaced by suspicious inquiry.
"My son, is that you?"
Lu Xing knew that he had triggered another NPC dialogue, but apparently this NPC was much more vivid and flexible than the previous "wise man".
The "wise man"?, Doesn't look very smart.
"Hello Wang Po, I am a foreign visitor. The wise man at the entrance of the village said that you are in trouble and I am here to investigate." Lu Xing said.
Knowing that the other party is an NPC, he felt that it was strange to say that.
"Oh, it turned out to be a guest from outside." Wang Po's expression and demeanor were so vivid that she didn't look like an NPC, "I made you laugh, I am really eager. My Wang Liang has been missing for a long time, and the villagers also followed him. , But he just couldn't find him. Their Taoyuan Village has been closed for generations and no one will go out. I am worried, he is afraid that he was eaten by some beast!"?????
[Clue reminder: Ask about the signs before the disappearance.]
The system suddenly gave directions for questioning.
"Then before he disappeared, were there any signs?" Lu Xing asked according to the guidelines.
"Before he disappeared..." Wang's wife fell into the memory, "He was always red at the time, and there was a special smell on his body. There was always a smile on his face, and he didn't say anything good when I asked him."
[Clue reminder: Ask if it is a case.]
"Before him, were there anyone else in the village missing?" Lu Xing glanced at the prompt box and asked again.
"It's strange to say that this is really not an exception." Wang Po thought about it. "A strong man disappears in the village every year, which causes many women in the village to be widows. Our Taoyuan village is about to become a widow village."
[End of the dialogue, get a portrait of the missing Wang Liang.]
After receiving the portrait from the system, Lu Xing withdrew from the Wang Po's house.
In the portrait, Wang Liang is very recognizable, with a Chinese character face, high cheekbones, small eyes with raised corners, and a mole on the center of the eyebrows, which is crooked.This aspect, at first glance, is not a good life.
Lu Xing returned to the village entrance to join the other people.
"How is it?" Xianuo asked.
"I have been to Wang Po's house. Wang Po said that her son has been missing for a long time, and this phenomenon of men disappearing is not a single case. It happens every year. Taoyuan Village is a closed village and few outsiders enter and leave. Wang Po himself It is suspected that her son was eaten by a beast. Have you found any clues?" Lu Xing said.
"The reason for the relationship problems between Brother Li and Sao Li is that Sao Li suspects that there are women outside of Brother Li. A very strange phenomenon I found is that there are many women in Taoyuan Village, and many women are widowed at a young age. It is suspected that Brother Li was seduced by a widow of a certain family, and he also found a woman's silk scarf from him, so he had a big fight." Xianuo said.
"I went to Widow Zhao's house." Yuan Ling said, "Her need is to help pick a bucket of water, and I have already done it. Widow Zhao has been a widow for some years, and he said that his husband had disappeared somehow. She said Their existence seems to be cursed, and men often disappear."
"From the first three things, the only thing that holds up the main clue at the moment is that men in this village are frequently missing, and most of the women in the village are widows." Lu Xing analyzed, "This is why Widow Zhao asked someone to help carry water. Why did Big Brother Li cheat during marriage."
"There is a fourth branch line!" Xia Nuo looked at Ning Wuyi, "Have you been to Uncle Sun's house?"
"I've been there." Ning Wuyi nodded, "Uncle Sun's house did not have a missing person, but his little grandson ran out to play last night and bumped into it. It's not that there were heads in the vegetable field. The high fever persists and my consciousness is unconscious. Uncle Sun and his wife have searched in the vegetable field, but they have not seen any heads at all. The above is all the things I asked."
"Hey, aren't you the original author? Why don't you have any extra clues for us?" Lu Xing looked at him and asked.
"Please, I just wrote an outline. When designing the outline, I circled the Novice Village. I said that I would set up a weird event. If you unlock this event, you can leave the Novice Village directly. Otherwise, you can only Continue to hunt wild monsters here. There are four branches in this event, and each branch is related to each other. But I just designed it to end here. What Wang Po, Li Ge, Sun Shu, Zhao Widow, this is not my design at all It came out. So what kind of incident it is, I am also very curious. Judging from the current situation, the people who construct this world will not be worse than me."
"So you don't know! Cut, I thought you knew it!" Lu Xing sighed, "Forget it, let's solve it by ourselves. Missing men, cheating incidents, many widows in the village, children saw the vegetable field Someone...what clues are needed to connect these things together?"
"I guess, we must have missed some details. So let's exchange it." Xian Nuo said, "I'll go to Wang's house, Yuanling to Li's sister-in-law's house, and Ning Wuyi to help Widow Zhao carry water, you Go to Uncle Sun's house and check what the child saw the head."
"Is the sacred task of helping the widow pick water finally my turn?" Ning Wuyi suddenly became excited, rubbing his hands and asked Yuan Ling, "Widow Zhao is not beautiful?"
"Pretty, very beautiful! You try to pick two buckets for her as much as possible. Her family lacks men. And there are very few outsiders in this village. If you do a good job, she might leave you as a husband!" Yuan Ling rolled his eyes angrily.
"Hehehe, don't care about that much, let's look forward to it!" Before a few people left, Ning Wuyi was already strode away.
