In Apartment 1404, Dong Xie put his cell phone on speakerphone and placed it in the center of the table, listening to the message from Lian Zixin.
"It's an expected thing." Mu Ziyi sat on the other side of Dong Xie and said: "If you want to kill people on a large scale on the train without causing any alertness to the people on the train, this is the best way. The train is running as usual.
, so that Blood Letter can continue. This may not be the ability of the evil spirit itself, but the intervention of the apartment."
"Listen to me," Dong Xie said to Lian Zixin on the other end of the phone: "Which carriages are currently confirmed to be affected? Please record it and send it to me."
"I have records. Currently, there are carriages No. 6, No. 9, No. 12 and No. 13. There are four carriages in total."
"You are in Car No. 5, but Car No. 6 is also in trouble?"
Dong Xie originally thought that maybe the apartment would let the evil spirit start killing passengers in the far car, and then move little by little to the car where the residents were. But from this look, it doesn't seem to be the case.
"Didn't you encounter any suspicious passengers?"
"For the time being... I haven't encountered such a passenger yet, so I can't be sure..."
So far, no residents have been killed or injured. Judging from the fact that the residents have not lost their memory, there should be no situation where the residents die and then lose their memory. Therefore, perhaps the clues to the survival route have not been fully revealed yet.
However, the killings of evil spirits have no intention of avoiding the residents. Once the restrictions in the apartment are relaxed, the consequences will be disastrous.
Dong Xie looked at Mu Ziyi in front of him worriedly and said, "You...do you have any ideas now?"
Mu Ziyi looked at the mobile phone in front of her without thinking, held it in front of her and said, "Lian Zixin, judging from the information you provided, the limitation of this Scarlet Mission is not space, but time and number of people.
.The restriction of evil spirits should be to wait for a period of time before killing a resident. If there is no restriction on space, once the resident cannot find a way out, his early survival can only rely on luck."
"Are the evil spirits hiding among the existing passengers?" Lian Zixin asked.
"This actually doesn't make much sense. It's not a mystery novel. Even if you know who it is, it doesn't make sense. The train is only so big and far smaller than the attack range of evil spirits. Avoiding it will not increase your hope of survival."
When Dong Xie heard this, he thought for a while and said, "If it were you, what would you do? Given the existing information?"
After all, if the current situation continues, the residents will just have to wait for death.
Mu Ziyi held out three fingers and said: "Generally, the ways of survival can be roughly divided into the following three categories. First, immunity-type survival methods. This type of survival method generally involves residents using some means to avoid the attacks of evil spirits. Second,
Countermeasures, through some means, impose some huge restrictions on the evil spirit, or make it unable to move or move to other areas, or make it lose the ability or will to kill residents or even anyone. Third,
In the complete killing method, the residents use some kind of back-up device left in the apartment to kill the evil spirits in turn."
"Hmm... Then maybe it will be this time?"
"It's all possible. But from the general analysis, most of the blood characters' ways of survival are immunity type, followed by counterattack type, and the final number of complete kill types is the least. Assuming it is immunity type, for example, the blood type you performed not long ago
Character, by eliminating all the red color on the body to avoid the attack of evil spirits. Then, the residents need to obtain certain conditions that are different from other passengers. If it is a counter-attack type, then the killing range of the evil spirits needs to be reduced to a certain
Some specific carriages, or moved outside the train and never come back."
"A certain condition...what is that condition?"
"This requires you to observe on site. If you want to generalize the conditions, you need a large enough sample size to conduct statistics."
Speaking of this, Mu Ziyi covered her mouth and said: "Okay, I actually used some inappropriate words just now. After all, the so-called samples are also human lives."
"Judging from the current situation...the residents who were killed, their age, gender, carriage, bunk beds...all have nothing in common."
"Six, nine, twelve, thirteen...there are odd numbers and even numbers," Mu Ziyi murmured: "If there is no thirteen, it can be judged that the car insurance victims are all multiples of three. Are you sure about the number in carriage No. 13?
People were indeed killed, right?"
"Yes, for sure."
"How many passengers in Car No. 13 are missing?"
"There are two, we asked people around."
"How many questions did you ask in total?"
"Yes, there are three or four people..."
"Then it's unlikely that the evil spirit disguised himself as a passenger and committed perjury. Is there no way to determine the specific time of the murder?"
"This is...a bit difficult. We have a limited number of people and cannot monitor every carriage at all times."
However, Lian Zixin began to gain some confidence after listening to Mu Ziyi's analysis. After all, the other party was a giant-level resident who had actually experienced more than ten times of blood words. Putting aside good and evil, Mu Ziyi's ability to execute blood words must be
There is no doubt about it.
At this time, he was in the tenth car, talking to his mother Ziyi and Dong Xie, and observing the passengers.
"I feel like the passengers who were victims can't see anything in common for the time being."
"That may not be a immunity-type way of survival, but a counter-type way of survival. The key is to impose restrictions on the evil spirits. However, no residents have died yet, so the information may not be sufficient, so you can only use my words as a reference.
, don’t jump to conclusions easily.”
"Okay, thank you, Miss Mu." Lian Zixin knew that Mu Ziyi's willingness to take action this time must be because of Dong Xie. He is not an ignorant person, "Dong Xie, thank you very much."
"Listen up," Mu Ziyi gave him a suggestion: "From now on, record the passengers you see in every carriage, record them with their obvious appearance features as much as possible, and then when you find someone disappearing, calculate the time.
, try your best to estimate the time of the murder, and you may be able to understand the killing and activity patterns of the evil spirits. There is also a very important thing. You should check each other’s records of the passengers in each carriage as much as possible. See
Whether there are any discrepancies, the evil spirits may erase your relevant memories respectively."
"okay, I get it."
Lian Zixin took out a notebook and began to record every passenger in each carriage. According to the body shape and clothing of the passengers, he recorded the people in each carriage, and then patrolled repeatedly to see if anyone disappeared.
After hanging up the cell phone call, Mu Ziyi raised her head, looked at Dong Xie, and said, "Do you have any ideas? About this mission with letters written in blood."
"This..." Dong Xie's lips moved a few times and he said, "I really have nothing to add. I feel that compared to you, I still have a lot to learn."
"The word "blood" is limited to such a small area as the train," Mu Ziyi seemed to be very concerned about this point: "This kind of situation was relatively rare in the past."
"Hmm... Is this very... important? I have seen the scarlet record, and some people used to perform the scarlet record on buses."
"What you are talking about is to allow residents to infer the identity of the evil spirit on the bus passengers and narrow the scope of activities. It allows residents to have no other buffer zone except to infer the evil spirit and use the restrictions provided by the apartment to counterattack. If the resident does not infer the evil spirit,
Spiritual identity, the restrictions of the apartment cannot protect them in such a small space. But this time, this is not the case."
"So? What does this mean?"
"The reduced range of activities means that even if the apartment limits the range and speed of evil spirits, it is still too dangerous for residents. This may have something to do with the fact that there is a way out."
"I, I don't quite understand..." Dong Xie felt that he was on the first floor now, and Mu Ziyi was probably at least on the tenth floor.
"Generally, the scope of the activity space of the Scarlet Letter is itself a protective measure for the apartment. There are two possibilities for reducing the activity area. First, the escape itself may impose a new space restriction."
"Then...what about the second one?"
"The second thing is that the train actually has far more than thirteen carriages, and there is also a huge hidden space!"
