Chapter 149: Invitation for the Train Mission
Wen Xishu looked at the little girl.
The little girl also had an eerie smile, like a toy.
But this little girl, she was naturally a great actress.
She could sometimes appear very lively, and at a moment's notice, her eyes could be filled with tears.
Her acting skills were simply top-notch.
Wen Xishu had actually found the opportunity to obtain an invitation.
He himself also had a premonition that the next move... might be a failure, with his own death in the quest, or he would get the invitation.
The first time he got an invitation was when Wen Xishu and Jack understood each other's thoughts.
Although the second time was not, it was by relying on a dice.
But the third, the fourth, nearly every time he got an invitation, it was at a critical moment, understanding what the "qualified person" was thinking.
The most recent time, at Rokkasho, he realized that the Mage was not a bad person, so he told the Mage he would cooperate.
So in fact, Wen Xishu was very clear about one thing, the most important point about getting an invitation is to solve the problem like the question setter, putting yourself in the shoes of the "qualified person", after understanding his situation, then solve the problem.
This increases the likelihood of getting an invitation greatly.
This also requires that an excellent Deceit Tower climber must have a sufficient understanding of human nature.
But there is one type of person in this world that is the hardest to understand.
Chaos.
At this moment, Wen Xishu felt a kind of chaos as if he had encountered a destroyer.
The carriage was full of people with stories, gathered together, just like raising poisonous insects.
Wen Xishu didn't completely not understand this kind of person.
In order to find pleasure, they could do anything, everything was for their own happiness.
Now, he guessed the little girl might be such a person.
"Everyone to you is a toy, the trafficker is indeed a trafficker... but she didn't intend to sell you, rather you latched onto her willingly, simply because you thought it was fun..."
"You enjoy witnessing the despair on others' faces, especially when... players stick a good card on you, that look of surprise and regret."
Wen Xishu said these words, but the "evil" card in his hand never stuck on her.
If the good card was wrong, a policeman would be lost. If the evil card was wrong, then all the policemen would be gone.
He was still somewhat hesitant.
What if he was wrong?
What if there were still twists and turns?
So should he wait until car 012 to further verify?
In the end, Wen Xishu did not give the evil to the little girl, he seemed to decide to wait until more lines were collected to judge.
His acting skills were on point, as if he had already started to observe the conductor behind him.
At this moment, Wen Xishu silently recited two words in his heart.
"Mirror."
The mirror that could reveal his own panel suddenly appeared in front of Wen Xishu.
The mirror was invisible to others.
Including the little girl.
This was the second time Wen Xishu summoned the mirror during a mission, the first time was in the elevator of the Reversed Seven Mansion.
This time, Wen Xishu intended to observe.
In the mirror, Wen Xishu noticed that when he turned his back, the little girl's eyeballs... moved.
Her gaze changed!
It was a mocking gaze, as if looking at a toy.
At this moment, Wen Xishu was finally certain that the little girl did have a problem.
He suddenly turned around, and the "evil" card that should have been for the male conductor and the robbers was given to the little girl.
At this moment, the little girl's gaze became increasingly mocking.
Her lines also changed:
"Didn't wait for the police uncle but got you instead. Do you think, in that world, you'd be safer? Hee hee, I'll be waiting for you."
After saying this, the little girl disappeared.
In her seat, something very familiar to Wen Xishu appeared.
The invitation.
It was the first time Wen Xishu obtained an invitation in such a manner.
In the past, whenever Wen Xishu obtained an invitation, there was a sense of turning enemies into friends.
Whether it was Jack, Tang Rui, or the An Family Brothers, Master Lingqing...
But now, he felt like he was about to enter the "second phase of the boss."
The reason Wen Xishu summoned the mirror was because, he thought it over and over, it was impossible that everyone in the carriage was a "toy."
The chaotic evil fun seeker might even turn themselves into a toy, to see how players would be misled.
But they would also definitely leave some clues, or deliberately say certain lines, to let the players realize the possible truth.
Just like out of sheer bragging.
So Wen Xishu concluded that this "toy" was different from other "toys."
It only appeared to be a toy on the surface, in reality, it was silently observing the players.
Using this point, and with the aid of the mirror that could not be discovered, Wen Xishu saw... the little girl indeed changed.
However, when the evil card was stuck on, and the invitation was obtained, Wen Xishu felt more unease inside.
"It's very strange, according to the information from the safe house, this train corresponds to the 29th floor."
"The 29th floor should not be easy, even in the Desire Tower. Because a destroyer has already appeared."
"But the little girl felt more like the destroyer to me."
"The 29th floor, no matter how destroyed, couldn't be more destroyed than Rokkasho, right?"
"However, it's hard to say."
"Because the 29th floor must have been visited by many more people than Rokkasho, after all, Rokkasho is more than forty floors up."
"So the more people who have visited, theoretically, the more times the destroyers have restarted, the more operations they have had."
"The more impact on the world as well."
