Chapter 618 - 617: Why Don’t the Male Contestants Fight First

"The third possibility is that I’ve guessed wrong, and Guo Yin is not the traitor. In that case, the traitor is among us from earlier, and secretly attacked Guo Yin during the chaos."

Dealing with the other traitor is essential, after all, only one person can survive in the end. The longer the other traitors are around, the more likely I am to fail.

She said it all in one breath, anticipating the next sentence as she spoke, finishing the whole paragraph without a hitch.

These three possibilities are all she can think of now. To dispel others’ suspicions about her, she added at last:

"Actually, whether Guo Yin is the traitor or not doesn’t matter. It’s either Brother Chen Yi had something reflective on him, or there’s a genuine traitor among us. And I lean towards the latter."

"Sounds reasonable," Shu Ran covered her ears, "But I think we can’t listen to you anymore. You’re always guiding everyone’s thoughts to follow yours."

Guan Yu: "You finally got smart. Mu Qiu is the thought butcher; everyone needs their own ideas."

Li Yang: "Makes sense."

Chen Yi: "Indeed, it makes some sense."

Shen Zhousong: "Very true."

Mu Qiu: "...What do you mean?! What do you mean?! Everything I said is true!"

Guan Yu shrugged: "Oh. But we just don’t believe it anymore."

"But what I said is really true! Every word in that speech just now was from my heart!"

"No wonder Shu Ran covered her ears; she didn’t want to hear your heartfelt words."

"......"

Chu Qiu grinned, poking his head out: "Mainly, there’s a high chance you’re the suspect yourself. If half of what you said before was true and half wasn’t, perhaps what you said about not being a traitor is also false?"

"In that case, let’s speculate in reverse, there’s an 80% chance she’s the traitor." Shen Zhousong joined the discussion.

Guan Yu nodded confidently: "Round it up, and it’s 100%."

"?" Mu Qiu was expressionless, "Is there such a rounding method in this world?"

Basically, they think she’s the traitor, right? But the note she used on Guo Yin didn’t work before.

Could it be...she really is the traitor, and the note did work, it’s just that 049 was super delayed in receiving the signal?!

Or maybe 049 got stuck in traffic on the way? That would be really jammed, taking so long to arrive.

Her change in expression became apparent, Zhao Yu leaned closer and asked her: "What, thought of something again?"

"I think......"

"Think what?"

"049 probably came by tractor."

Zhao Yu: "...... Are you sick?"

Mu Qiu wasn’t angry anymore, no longer dwelling on whether they believed she was innocent, instead she asked them a question.

"When Brother Huai and Han Xizheng were slaughtered by 049, was it like just now with Guo Yin?"

Chen Yi shook his head: "Brother Huai went peacefully."

"...Okay, so he didn’t resist. Then where did 049 appear from at the time?"

This question Shu Ran remembered clearly, answered: "It came from behind the photographer, none of us noticed it. As soon as it appeared, it covered Han Xizheng’s mouth and dragged him away."

"It couldn’t have been behind the photographer all the time, and it shouldn’t be that there’s one behind each person’s photographer.

Could it mean that it received information that someone was going out and then came over leisurely from somewhere?"

She looked around, carefully watching the backs of the photographers nearby.

The person playing 049 is very tall, the photographers couldn’t block them.

Shu Ran crossed her arms, furrowed her brows: "What are you trying to say?"

Guan Yu speculated: "Are you saying that 049 coming here takes time, so it’s possible that the person who attacked Guo Yin had already done so?"

Mu Qiu snapped her fingers: "Exactly. Previously, it didn’t feel like this when Brother Huai and Han Xizheng were slaughtered, because they were sneak attacked by someone.

And Guo Yin sticking to Brother Chen Yi was blatant, obvious, so 049’s arrival was also obvious. In this way, there’s a delay in 049 killing."

Shu Ran: "I don’t understand."

Li Yang: "I’m confused."

Shen Zhousong: "It’s a bit roundabout."

Chen Yi: "What do you mean?"

Guan Yu: "Here’s the thing, whatever you don’t understand, treat it as lies, and what you do understand, even more so, are lies. I suggest we get rid of her first."

Mu Qiu: "...... I mean, maybe I really am the traitor, and the attack on Guo Yin worked previously, it’s just that 049 got delayed in traffic."

"With that delay, they might as well have stopped for a meal to digest before coming over." Cheng Zhirang had also learned to joke.

Mu Qiu couldn’t refute this, she simply pursed her lips sadly.

"Well then I don’t know what’s going on. If someone really took advantage of the gap to attack Guo Yin, it wouldn’t leave no trace at all, right? We were all standing side by side at the time."

"If we don’t get it now, it doesn’t matter, let’s solve a few people first. Won’t our thoughts clear up? Brother Cheng, you go home and rest first, we’ll start with a low-stakes round."

Guan Yu was stretching his ankle and wrist joints, looking ready to start fighting.

Chu Qiu chimed in: "Right, right, right, let’s have a melee first, everyone go all out, see whose slaughter works, then we can pinpoint the traitor and speed up the game."

Li Yang was startled: "Playing so hard!? Successful or else!"

Guan Yu waved it off, looking exceptionally calm: "Anyway, I don’t want to live, I want to go drink instant noodle soup."

"...That’s your only goal?"

Chen Yi and Shu Ran hesitated, they didn’t really agree: "We only have us left in the two groups, if we just randomly eliminate one, it’s a total group failure, don’t think we don’t know what you’re plotting."

"How about—"

Shen Zhousong leaned on Cheng Zhirang’s shoulder, a mischievous smile on his face, suggesting:

"I mean, how about you ladies have a round first? We’ll stand far away and not get involved."

Chu Qiu’s eyes lit up, trying hard to suppress a grin: "I think that’s doable."

Shu Ran sneered: "I also have a suggestion, how about you gentlemen have a round first? We’ll also stand far away and not interfere. Even if we do intervene, we wouldn’t threaten you, wouldn’t that be fairer?"

Mu Qiu quickly raised her hand: "I think that’s possible!"

Zhao Yu and Guan Yu also followed by raising their hands: "Possible! Possible!"

They just want to see the long-legged, handsome guys in a melee! This is the same reason students liked to watch basketball games, now they want to see them fight, it’s the same reason.

"You take note! We’ll be cheering and rooting for you from the side!"

"Go, go, go! Show the viewers in front of the cameras that you’re all the most handsome!"

"Really love seeing the male guests fight! Everyone hurry and take screenshots, record videos for the friends watching the show!"

Alright, the atmosphere has been set, it’s decided for the male guests to go up.
