Chapter 600: Chapter 600: The Suspect (Added for kklin)
Xu Fanghe quickly received a note sent by the thugs.
There were six numbers written on the note this time: 3, 4, 5, 17, 29, 30
As usual, Xu Fanghe asked everyone for their opinion. After finding out that there was a person corresponding to number three, he crossed out the number three. Then, after pausing for half a second, he crossed out 29 and 30, as well.
Everyone looked confused.
Xu Fanghe calmly replied: “Just a smokescreen.”
He added, “There are still several hours left before the third round of voting. Everyone, go back and get some rest.”
Someone hesitated and didn’t want to leave, expressing their worry to Xu Fanghe: “Dr. Xu Fanghe, if we lose more members in the third round of voting, then…”
There were only five people left with Yellow Eyes. If they lose more members, even if they make it to the last round of voting, there’s no way they can win the game!
That’s because the condition for clearing is that, after five rounds of voting, the eye color of the survivors should be consistent.
If there are only five people left after five rounds, how can they ensure the consistency of eye color if there are not enough Yellow Eyes?
Xu Fanghe, who was sitting on his knees with his eyes closed, calmly replied: “Don’t worry, I’ll handle this. You all go back first.”
Seeing no other choice, everyone reluctantly left.
Bai Youwei also wheeled away in her wheelchair. As she left, she heard two men speaking in hushed voices:
“No idea what he’s up to… If he says he’ll handle it, he should let us all know how he plans to do it…”
“I think he’s out of options, right? He promised that none of the Yellow Eyes would be eliminated in the last round, but what happened? We lost two more people!”
“What should we do… If we lose another one, we’re sure to lose…”
“We were played by Blue Eyes, and all that talk about Heavenly Punishment… really…”
“We shouldn’t have let him lead in the first place…”
The two men walked further away, discussing and sighing as they went.
Bai Youwei watched them for a while, before slowly wheeling away…
…
At the front door of the cylindrical house, just as she prepared to open the door, a figure emerged from behind the house.
Bai Youwei immediately looked around.
No one was following, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.
She opened the door and waved towards the figure behind the house: “Come in.”
The person who arrived was the leader of the Red Eyes, that short-haired woman.
“Their planned voting numbers this time are 4, 5, 17. The numbers crossed out by Xu Fanghe are 3, 29, and 30. I suspect his number is either 28, 29, or 30.”
As Bai Youwei spoke, she tore off a piece of paper and quickly wrote down all the numbers she had just mentioned.
The short-haired woman shook her head, “It’s not 30; 30 is a Red Eye.”
Bai Youwei crossed out 30 and made a special circle around 28 and 29, “In the previous two instances when Xu Fanghe listed the numbers, he never went beyond 27. I suspect his number is in between 28 and 29. We should try to vote out these two numbers in the next round.”
Looking suspiciously at her, the short-haired woman asked, “Are you really sure that Xu Fanghe is the X guest?”
“I’m not sure.” Bai Youwei responded candidly, “If it’s not him, then it must be the thug. There is no third option.”
The short-haired woman was even more puzzled, “Why have you never suspected me? And why did you tell me your number?”
When the short-haired woman had called Bai Youwei a “Fool”, Bai Youwei seized her wrist and asked if she was calling her “me” stupid. She emphasized the word “me” and wrote “11” on the short-haired woman’s arm.
Bai Youwei answered, “Because I’ve tested you, and you’re not the X guest.”
“You tested me?” The short-haired woman knitted her brows in recollection, “…When?”
Bai Youwei smiled gently, “Last night. I told you that I suspected the thug was the X guest. You said it didn’t seem like him, that his white partner seemed more like the X guest.
If you were the X guest and found out I was suspecting the wrong target, you should have reinforced my mistake, not tried to correct me. So, you’re definitely not the X guest.”
