When the clown asked the little girl to continue identifying, the little girl wanted to identify her sister-in-law this time, but was told by the clown that if she was shocked again, she might die. The little girl hesitated and could only point to her sister-in-law.
A brother.
The second brother who was pointed out cursed loudly. In addition to scolding the little girl, he also scolded his father and elder brother, and even scolded his sister-in-law, telling her to just die.
In the next two rounds, the little girl pointed at her eldest brother and her father respectively, and they both cursed. At first they would scold the little girl, but then they started to scold each other.
From the words they used to insult each other, Schiller could tell that the men in this family were each unique in their own way.
Hef has been addicted to gambling since he was expelled from the team. The eldest brother was killed when he bullied others at school and broke one of his legs. He is still lame. The second brother likes petty theft the most. Not only does he go out to steal things,
He also stole money from the family and beat his mother when he asked her if she wanted money.
The only relatively innocent people in this family are the grandfather and mother, and they are also the best people to the little girl.
After shocking the others, the clown asked the little girl to continue pointing out, but the little girl refused to point out her mother and grandfather even if the clown threatened to kill her.
If it were an ordinary murderer, when this step was reached, he would either let the little girl watch him electrocute her dear relatives, or he would kill the little girl in front of her relatives.
But the clown is not an ordinary person. He praised the little girl with great surprise and said: "That's great! Little Jenny! This is exactly what I want to teach you. If you don't want to do something, then firmly refuse!"
"
"Your refusal won them victory. Well, now the game is over and your family can be reunited. I will let them go now."
You can imagine what happened next.
The physical fitness of adult men is relatively good. Even if the electric current causes huge damage to them, it still does not affect their mobility, and there will be a brief period of excitement after being shocked.
They rushed towards Jenny like crazy and wanted to kill her, but because Jenny didn't refuse, they suffered so much pain.
More importantly, their dignity was provoked.
It can be seen from the structure of the Hef family that they are a very traditional family. The men work outside the home and the women take care of the children at home. Even if the family is so poor, they do not want their women to go out to work.
In this game, their identities are reversed, and the one who is the weakest and most in need of protection becomes the judge who can decide the life and death of others.
The mother and the elderly grandfather, who have always been at the bottom of the family class, escaped the disaster, but the men who usually showed off their power and integrity at home suffered a fatal blow and made all kinds of ugly appearances.
They thought they had lost their dignity and could never bear such an insult. Anger engulfed their hearts.
But they are not usually people who face difficulties, otherwise they would not lead their lives like this. They are used to wielding knives at the weaker ones, actively ignoring who is the culprit of all this, and intend to give those
A lesson for those who have no ability to resist.
Blood stained the screen red.
After the video ended, neither Batman nor Schiller spoke.
"How was it?" Schiller asked.
"There are so many questions." Batman said, "I don't know where to start."
"Oh?" Schiller looked at him with some interest and said, "If you can say that, it seems that the problem is really big."
"The biggest problem is Jenny." Batman looked at the bright red screen. He stretched out his hand and dragged the progress bar with the mouse to return to the beginning. The screen was fixed on the first close-up of the little girl Jenny.
This little girl named Jenny doesn't actually look very delicate and cute. At first glance, she looks like a rural girl who is often exposed to wind and sun. Her hair is a bit messy, but she has a pair of big brown eyes and she looks very energetic.
"She's so calm," Batman said.
Of course, Schiller also noticed this. It can be said that from the time the clown appeared to the time the Hef family started killing each other, Jenny never cried or had any special fear. Basically, she did whatever the clown asked her to do.
.
This is very unreasonable. A little girl who is only 6 years old can say a complete sentence when encountering such an accident. It is considered that she drank too much Mengpo soup and did not forget it.
You know, even when Batman was a child, his first reaction after his parents suffered an accident was to cry. This is a normal human psychology and emotion.
Even though this little girl named Jenny is a genius who can stabilize her emotions in such a terrible situation, the understanding she shows is a bit too exaggerated.
Maybe for an adult, such a scene is not very complicated, but for a little girl who is only 6 years old, there should be too many things in this scene that he cannot understand.
This village is very remote and does not have access to the Internet. It is estimated that the TV stations will not receive a few broadcasts. A little girl growing up in such an environment is unlikely to have much knowledge.
She will definitely be confused as to why her family members were fixed to chairs, because she may not even understand what "kidnapping" is.
It was also difficult for her to understand why the Joker asked her to point at one person, because she had no idea what a serial killer was, what a home invasion was, or what a psychopath was.
It is even more impossible for her to understand what the instrument of torture made by the clown is, why when it is pressed on someone, the other person screams, and it is impossible to understand the meaning of the screams and curses of her family, because many things
It's too profound for her.
Human beings are always limited by their own knowledge. This 6-year-old girl named Jenny has been exposed to too few things in her short life, and there will naturally be more things she does not understand.
But she didn't ask anything during the whole process, she just did whatever the clown asked her to do, without any curiosity or fear about what happened, as if she already knew what would happen.
This is not the reaction a little rural girl should have.
When a normal child encounters this kind of thing, he will either burst into tears and be unable to say a word. Even if he does not dare to cry, he will not dare to do anything at all. He will look for his father at one moment and look for his mother at another.
Even if it is not in such a dangerous situation, and it is really just a similar game, children of this age group can rarely concentrate for such a long time, and it is impossible to say, do and present what they say.
The reaction is completely off topic.
But Jenny just did it.
This made Schiller very suspicious of her identity, because he remembered that Batman had said before that when the lost goat disappeared, only little Jenny knew the direction in which it disappeared.
Without this clue, the Hef family would not have found the goat carcass in that direction, and naturally they would not have eaten the mutton.
Could Jenny have deliberately let go of the goat, led the Hef family to a certain place, and tampered with the goat's meat, causing the Hef family to go crazy?
No, Schiller thought of another possibility. The goat and all that might be just a cover. After all, judging from the video, the Hef family's language and logic are normal, and their various emotional reactions are also natural. They didn't watch it.
There's nothing crazy about it.
So the story that the Hef family went crazy after eating mutton might be a rumor, but they were kicked out by other people in the village because the villagers saw something that made the villagers think that the family had gone crazy.
As a member of the Hef family, Jenny is the youngest daughter who is least likely to lie. If she does or says something, it can easily affect the judgment of the villagers.
This made Schiller think of one thing, that is, Madeleine's notes said that these weird monsters are intelligent, and can even be said to be very cunning.
These monsters may not all have powerful skills, but they can completely fool humans with their invisible presence and evil wisdom. Jenny looks like she has been bewitched by a demon.
If a certain monster really possessed Jenny first, led the Hef family to kill each other, and then possessed other people after Jenny died, then who could this person be?
"Is the body in the security room on the first floor the lighthouse keeper?" Schiller looked at Batman and asked.
Batman nodded and said, "He should have been killed by an outside invader."
"No, that's not right." Schiller said: "He was not killed by the madman in the video."
"Who is that?"
"It should be Hef." Schiller continued: "After the Hef family was released, Hef first killed other members of his family, or they killed each other, and only Hef survived.
one."
"Then maybe he wanted to leave here, or maybe he was mentally stimulated. When he came to the first floor, he killed the lighthouse keeper, but was also bitten by his dog."
The main reason for Schiller's inference was the injury on Hef's leg, because he had fought with those dogs and was familiar with the size and attack methods of the hounds. The scar on Hef's leg must have been left by the hounds.
It turns out that he had a conflict with the dog owner.
Batman frowned. If this is the case, there is another possibility, that is, the monster possessed the little girl Jenny, leading the Hef family to kill each other. After Jenny died, he possessed him again.
On Hef, let Hef kill the lighthouse keeper.
However, Hef lived until he met Schiller and the others, and he died in the end. After his death, the monster would definitely find a new host.
Everyone on the team was present when Hef died, which means this cunning monster could be in anyone.
"Do you think he can influence us?" Batman asked.
"I think the monster should not have the ability to communicate directly." Schiller said: "After all, he is not the devil in myths and legends. He has to rely on chatting with people to influence others. Otherwise, he would not choose a little girl as a host, because children's thinking and
Their communication skills are not as good as those of adults, so it is actually more difficult to convince them and get them to perform something perfectly."
"You mean monsters can directly affect thinking?"
Schiller nodded.
"There's some trouble now."
After Batman said this, he found Schiller looking at him with slightly doubtful eyes.
"What's the trouble?" Schiller asked.
"People who may be affected don't even know they are affected." Batman explained: "They may do evil things subconsciously."
Schiller looked at him, hesitated to speak, and finally said.
"But apart from you, is there anyone else in this team who has room for improvement?"
