Card Room (Rebirth)

Chapter 295.2



No one knew the real couple except for Yu Hanjiang, Xiao Lou and Cupid. Therefore, only Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou knew that Cupid was lying.

Cupid revealed himself at this time while also expressing his stance. He supported the true couple No. 1 and No. 11. As for 4 and 14 who died for love, this statement was to confuse the audience and let everyone lower their doubts regarding Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou.

This Cupid was quite capable of playing and there were no logical loopholes in his speech. After all, there were too many deaths last night. If one of them was a couple then it was easier for people to accept.

The teenager’s eyes were also calm when he spoke. Obviously, many people at the scene believed Cupid’s words.

After Cupid’s speech, No. 23 suddenly said, “Cupid stated that 4 and 14 are lovers. I believe this for the time being. If this is the case, it can better explain how five people died last night. The thing I find strange is why nothing happened to the sheriff? I’ve played many Werewolf games and most of the sheriffs survive less than three days. Then have you noticed? No one seems to question our sheriff at all. Don’t think that this big brother looks righteous on the surface. Is he actually righteous? Have you never thought it was possible that a werewolf is the sheriff? Have we met a wolf sheriff?”

Many people shifted their gazes to Yu Hanjiang. Yu Hanjiang was quite calm and his expression didn’t change. He even cast an encouraging look at No. 23 as if to say, ‘You continue.’

No. 23 was startled by the calm gaze but kept talking. “Of course, I have no evidence. I just have a reasonable question. This is too strange. It is the fifth day of the game and the sheriff is still alive. Moreover, the prophet is still alive. He revealed himself on the second day. Why haven’t the wolves killed him despite it being the fifth day? This is too unreasonable.”

He paused before adding, “If the wolves tried to kill the prophet and he was rescued by the witch or protected by the guard then it makes sense. However, look at what happened the last few nights. On the third night, the wolves killed 27 and 30 after the prophet was revealed. The fourth night was a Christmas Eve because the flower butterfly said she happened to hug a werewolf, so the wolves couldn’t kill. On the fifth night, five people died. Two of them must’ve been killed by the wolves. So why didn’t they kill the prophet?”

“In other words, it isn’t the witch or guard saving the prophet. It is that from beginning to end, the wolves never moved against the prophet. Isn’t it strange?”

People turned to look at Xiao Lou. Xiao Lou smiled slightly, as calm as Yu Hanjiang. However, once the seeds of doubt grew in the bottom of the heart, these doubts would only become bigger and bigger, growing like a vine. Everyone thought about it carefully and it was indeed not right.

No. 11 revealed himself on the second round during the day. That night i.e. the night of the third round, the wolves killed 27 and 30 while ignoring the prophet. The fourth night was Christmas Eve. The fifth night, five people died but the wolves still didn’t do anything about the prophet. Why? The prophet was a great threat to the wolves. There was no reason for the wolves to keep him alive, right?

“I’m surprised. Last night the numbers 4, 10, 14, 19 and 32 died. Excluding No. 10 who was killed by a celestial card, the remaining four shouldn’t have as high a priority as the witch and prophet, right? Why aren’t they acting against the witch and prophet and are instead killing those who are more invisible?”

“I have a strange feeling like the prophet is being protected by the werewolves. Think about it carefully. Every time the sheriff votes, doesn’t he follow the prophet? I guarantee that they must be teammates. Perhaps No. 35 in the previous round is the real grave keeper and there is indeed a problem with the No. 11 prophet. The No. 1 sheriff is also likely to be a wolf! It is recommended to vote out No. 11. A prophet who messes with the rhythm can’t be allowed to stay!”

Two consecutive people questioned the prophet and many people at the scene cast doubtful glances at Xiao Lou. This was also expected by Xiao Lou. After all, it was the fifth round of the game and the prophet was still alive.

Anyone who could get to this level wasn’t stupid. If they couldn’t see that he was cooperating with Yu Hanjiang then if they went to the high level Hearts room, forget catching the murderer. They wouldn’t even be able to find suspects.

How should he resolve the current situation?

The person after No. 21 happened to be Liu Qiao and Xiao Lou turned his attention to her.

Liu Qiao stood up and opened her mouth. “Why didn’t the werewolves kill me and the prophet? I don’t know. I only know that the prompt I received last night was that No. 19 and No. 17 were killed. I didn’t save them using the antidote.”

“I will give you a careful analysis. Out of the five people who died last night, No. 10 must be a gargoyle. He abruptly claimed to be the prophet and pointed out 17 and 19. This is obviously to tell his wolf teammates to take care of these two key cards first. Facts proved that my speculation was correct. The prompt I received was that the wolves killed 17 and 19 so I poisoned No. 10.”

“Yet 17 didn’t die? There is only one possibility. No. 17 is the bewitcher. He can choose a person to be his stand-in at night. He chose either 4 or 14 and this triggered the couple chain effect, so that 4 and 14 died together.”

“The remaining No. 32 should be killed by the demon hunter or dreamer? Why did they kill 32? In my opinion, 32 did nothing during several rounds of speeches. Perhaps the demon hunter or dreamer thinks he is a wolf and killed him?”

Liu Qiao looked at the man next to her. “No. 17 is my silver water. He avoided the knife last night. As long as no one throws him out during the day, he won’t die at night. I suggest that No. 17 chooses a werewolf as a stand-in so that our good camp has a greater chance of winning.”

“As for the two people questioning me and the prophet just now, I don’t know why the wolves didn’t kill me and the prophet. Perhaps it has something to do with the wolves’ mission or perhaps the wolves deliberately didn’t kill us to confuse people.”

Liu Qiao mixed truth with lies, making people confused. In fact, what she said in the first half was true but she didn’t poison No. 10 last night. The innocent No. 32 was killed by her poison. However, only the demon hunter knew this. Once the demon hunter found out that No. 10 was a werewolf, they killed No. 10 immediately.

At this point, the demon hunter had two choices.

The first choice was to jump out and expose Liu Qiao’s lie, confirming that No. 10 was killed by the demon hunter. The witch must’ve poisoned a good person and there was a problem with the witch. At the same time, if the demon hunter revealed himself then the wolves would get rid of him tonight. It was because the existence most threatening to the wolves was the demon hunter.

The second option was to not act for the time being. They would act according to their own analysis, continuing to hunt and kill the werewolves at night to help the good people. Liu Qiao released a hook to help the wolves find the demon hunter. It depended on the demon hunter if the hook was grabbed or not.

Liu Qiao finished her speech and No. 17 continued to speak. He confirmed Liu Qiao’s words. “I am indeed the bewitcher. I bewitched No. 14 last night because I think he is a wolf. On the day No. 13 ran for the sheriff election, he helped speak for the false prophet No. 22 and No. 13. They must’ve met at night and knew each other. These two should be wolf teammates. This is the reason why I chose No. 14 last night.”

This was right. The wolves killed 17 and 19 last night and 17 bewitched 14, making 14 his surrogate. 4 and 14 were killed due to Cupid’s connection and they both died for love. The remaining 32 was killed by the demon hunter.

On the surface, this logic chain was okay. Only the demon hunter knew that the witch was lying.

The next No. 15 and No. 12 all acknowledged the inference of the five kills in one night. After all, there were testimonies from Cupid, the witch and the bewitcher. No one thought that the witch would lie.

It was Xiao Lou’s turn and he stood up calmly. “Some people questioned why the witch and prophet weren’t killed. I will explain it to you. On the day when I revealed my identity, I was prepared to be killed on the third night. However, I mentioned in my speech for the guard to protect me.”

“I explicitly asked the guard to protect me. Wouldn’t it be stupid for the wolves to kill me knowing that that guard would give me a shield? It would be better to choose two other people to kill. After all, the more good people that die, the greater the advantage of the wolves. In addition, they have other ways to deal with the prophet. For example, make the prophet lose his skills.”

“The fourth round was Christmas Eve. The wolves couldn’t do anything even if they wanted to. The flower butterfly happened to hug a werewolf.”

“As for the fifth round, why didn’t the wolves kill me? I can tell you the reason. It is because I lost my skill last night.”

Everyone, “……”

Xiao Lou still looked calm as he glanced at the two players who questioned him earlier. “The prophet is really easy to die in a 12 person game because there are no skills to target the prophet. However, this is a 36 player game. Don’t forget, the wolves had the nightmare to fear the prophet and stop the prophet from testing people at night. There is also the fire wolf. In the event that a wolf teammate dies during the day, the fire wolf’s anger can cause someone to permanently lose their skill.”

A look of helplessness flashed across Xiao Lou’s face. “It is a pity that the wolves dealt with me by letting me lose my skill and making me a useless person instead of rushing to kill me. I have to say that the commander of the wolves is very clever. He knows that if they kill me, the witch will save me. If they keep me as a hostage then the witch won’t dare to use her antidote.”

“Now I have been influenced by the fire wolf’s anger and I have completely lost my skill. I am no different from an ordinary villager. That is why they found other celestial cards to kill last night. The witch definitely wouldn’t save those cards and it is the best of both worlds.”

“If I was the commander of the wolves then I would do the same. It is because this can ensure that the wolves can kill more people and maximize the benefits, building up a numerical advantage in the quickest time. Do you understand?”

The group was stunned. They didn’t expect there to be this type of routine. Take the prophet hostage so that the witch wouldn’t use the antidote on others. At the same time, use the fire wolf’s rage on the prophet so that the prophet lost his skill.

It was amazing.

Meanwhile, the wolves’ reaction was: Why didn’t we think of this? Isn’t the prophet more like a werewolf than the actual werewolf?

The No. 28 wolf was even more wronged. ‘I didn’t use rage, you didn’t lose your skill—I didn’t, I didn’t, don’t try a scam!’

Xiao Lou definitely hadn’t lost his skill. He just found the most reasonable explanation for the current situation.

Besides, it didn’t matter if he checked people or not. The werewolves were gradually becoming dominant. The next home game could be handed over to Yu Hanjiang. He raised his head to look at Yu Hanjiang. This man was staring at him with a faint smile in his deep gaze as if telling him, ‘Rest assured. The next thing, leave it to me.’
