Chapter 620: Chapter 620: You Talk Too Much
“Why?!” The man with glasses couldn’t accept it, he grabbed a Yellow Eye and asked, “Who did you vote for? Why did you listen to her?! Did you figure out I was the X Guest from the beginning?! No… No! It’s impossible!!!”
The Yellow Eye slipped his arm out of the man’s grasp, responding irritably, “We didn’t figure it out, but she promised us that if we voted her way, win or lose, we would all get tools.”
The man with glasses widened his eyes, “Can… can it be done ?”
“Yeah.” Another Yellow Eye said, “If she really is the X Guest, we’re doomed anyway. Since number 11 was blocked by the Rabbit and couldn’t vote, we might as well listen to her, even if we were to lose, we could still get tools.”
Even if demoted to commoners, tools are still a very important asset. Unless dolls disappear completely from the world, tools would lose their value.
The man with glasses didn’t expect that he would be defeated by such a small detail.
He roared with unbearable fury, “Aren’t you afraid she will renege?!”
“She won’t go back on her word.” Short-haired girl stepped forward, “We got the Inspector as our witness. As long as we eliminate the real X Guest in the final round of voting, regardless of winning or losing, we could split tools.”
That means, apart from number 29, the people who were eliminated, numbers 6, 7, 14, and 24, would only lose puzzles, but not tools, and they could even share tools with the winner!
Such a huge temptation, no one could resist.
The short-haired girl looked towards Ya Chaohui, bit her lip, and added, “We tried to contact you and your partner, but you locked yourselves away, refusing any communication.”
Ya Chaohui’s head was low, his face gray, he couldn’t speak a word.
The man with glasses refused to give up, pointed at the corpse in the room and argued, “Even so! This shouldn’t be the result! He had just voted, why it doesn’t count?! Is the Inspector deliberately covering up?!”
“Hey, how can you talk nonsense?” The spectating ball quickly interjected, “He did vote, but his vote was invalid. Didn’t you notice that numbers 6 and 7 were tied? I mentioned that in this round only four people would be eliminated, so he should have chosen one from numbers 6 and 7 to vote for. But who would know, he pressed the invalid number 11, and now, well, all five have to be eliminated.”
“Tied… votes?… Invalid?” The man with glasses stumbled a half step backward, looking dismayed, “How… how could this happen.”
Bai Youwei looked at him emotionlessly, speaking in a light tone, “I guessed you would vote for number 7, so I had everyone take the first four spots during the initial voting. Counting your vote for number 7, that leaves five in total. But the final round is limited to eliminating four people, which means the remaining two people who haven’t voted could only choose from those with one vote.”
“What if they both voted for number 11?” The man with the glasses stubbornly gritted his teeth, “If they both voted for 11, then your vote count is 2! Even if I lost, you would lose with me!”
“In theory, yes, but, practically, it’s impossible.” Bai Youwei gently patted the rabbit in her arms, “Do you think, after the Thunder Effect was used once, anyone would be foolish enough to press number 11 again?”
The man with glasses was taken aback.
Once someone presses number 11, it will trigger Thunderstorm Electroshock! Seeing a living person turned to charred remains, who would dare to press 11 again? Are they an idiot?!
“Even… even if it’s … why did you all…” he tried with all his might to find a reason, unable to face his defeat.
The ball finally lost patience, “You talk too much! I’m going to start the rewards calculation now!”
The man with glasses suddenly disappeared into thin air.
