Infinite Murder Mystery Game: The Beauty with a Delicate Palm

"I'll go, I'll go!"

Qiao Yinuo was incredibly excited when she saw Su Mian and immediately pounced on her, exclaiming, "Ragdoll cat! This is great, I'm going to be carried away again!!!"

Sleep: ...

This time, I really can't take him flying.

Tiffany stepped forward. "That instance, you saved me, didn't you?"

Su Mian nodded. One of the female streamers who died in the last instance was Tiffany.

The bug was fixed, and it naturally came back to life. She wiped away her tears with excitement, "Thank you, Ragdoll Cat."

Su Mian was a little breathless from being hugged by the two people, and the twins' expressions changed when they heard the word "Ragdoll cat".

Besides that person, there are also frequent posts from people saying they were carried to victory by Ragdoll Cat, which suggests they are very skilled players.

I finally met her in person today, and she turned out to be such a delicate-looking girl.

"Gentlemen, please don't stand at the door, find a seat."

The cleaning lady approached the group with a broom; several round tables had already been set up.

The tablecloth was a bright red plastic sheet, with a teapot and enamel cups pressed down on the corners, their rims touching each other with a crisp sound.

They walked discreetly to an empty round table and sat down. Steam rose from the kitchen, and the aroma of cooking oil mixed with the smell of steaming meat swirled in the yard. Occasionally, the sound of spatulas tapping against the edge of pots could be heard, and people were carrying stools in and out.

Bundles of fireworks and firecrackers were piled up at the base of the wall, their red paper covers gleaming in the sun.

Today is Mao Rongjun's engagement day.

Everything was so festive and harmonious, but as soon as I sat down, the neighbors and villagers looked over immediately, their eyes wide and their expressions quite strange.

The new girl swallowed hard and lowered her head even further.

Su Mian grabbed a handful of corn candy from the metal plate and put it in her bag, completely unperturbed.

"bride……"

"bride……"

The murmurs came from all directions, making the men's scalps tingle. They only looked away when Mao Rongjun's father came out of the house.

Mr. Mao was wearing a brand-new but ill-fitting navy blue Zhongshan suit, with the collar buttoned up tightly.

He was holding a red lacquered tray with a pair of scissors wrapped with red thread, a wooden comb, and several red ropes on it.

He walked to the middle of the courtyard and cleared his throat.

The surrounding noise instantly subsided, leaving only the clanging of spatulas from the kitchen.

"Although... Rongjun has something come up and it will take him some time to get back, the auspicious time cannot be missed, so we will proceed with the proper etiquette as before."

The courtyard was packed, and applause erupted instantly, leaving the famous player looking puzzled.

Qiao Yinuo leaned closer and asked, "What do you mean? Aren't we neighbors here for the banquet? How did we become brides?"

Tiffany glanced at Qiao Yinuo, who exuded a silly air, and said, "The system means that the bride is among us."

Qiao Yinuo said "Oh," then frowned at Tiffany, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"Nothing else," Tiffany said with a gentle smile, just as she had in Wibbens.

The same kind and approachable manner.

"I feel sorry for Ragdoll cats, there are too many people to take care of them."

Same green tea.

However, it seems that this time the green tea's target is someone else.

Qiao Yinuo stared wide-eyed speechlessly, grabbed Su Mian's arm, and winked at Tiffany.

Sleep: ...

She scratched her face, unsure whether she should join the fray.

On stage, Mr. Mao held the microphone, his voice low and somber, "Looking for a bride..."

He looked over here and said, "The first step is to comb the bride's hair. Her hair must be smooth and shiny, and then tied with a red string, symbolizing the couple's unity."

He picked up the wooden comb from the tray, then grabbed a rope, and carrying the tray, walked step by step toward their table.

The newlywed looked around nervously, glanced at us, then quickly looked away, asking anxiously, "What does this mean? Are we going to... are we going to have our hair combed? What happens if we're chosen?"

No one answered her; everyone tensed up.

Mr. Mao stood by the table. If you got close, you could smell the stale scent of mothballs on him, mixed with a faint scent of incense and candles.

He stood behind Tiffany. "Look up."

Tiffany raised her head slightly, and amidst the horrified gazes of the others, she picked up the wooden comb and actually began to comb her hair, stroke by stroke.

Tiffany slowly combed her hair from root to tip, her scalp aching from the pulling, but she didn't show a single expression.

"Not smooth enough," he muttered, turning to the next one.

Qiao Yinuo, the female gamer, forced herself to remain calm and let him comb her hair.

"Hair texture is too stiff, that's not good."

When he got to the new player, his eyes slowly brightened, and he took out a red string and tied a knot in his hair.

The new girl covered her mouth and looked at them for help, but saw that her father was still combing his hair. Su Mian was puzzled for a moment, but then seemed to understand something.

The twins were both passed over, and the last one was Su Mian, who was also tied with a red string.

Tiffany and Qiao Yinuo looked at her with concern.

Just when everyone thought it was over, Mr. Mao picked up the microphone again and said, "The second step is to cut out the character for 'double happiness.' The bride's hands must be skillful, and the cut-out character must be neat and auspicious."

"How come there are still some???"

Qiao Yinuo was on the verge of tears, while Su Mian looked on with understanding. "He won't give up on anyone who could become his bride."

"Our situation is already uncertain. If this 'double happiness' character isn't cut well, things might not go well for us."

The glossy red paper had already been placed on the table. Everyone picked up a piece. Father Mao handed over the scissors. Hearing Su Mian's words, Qiao Yinuo became even more nervous. She had never been married, so how could she cut out the double happiness character?

Qiao Yinuo could only look around and see Su Mian folding things by herself, so she began to imitate her.

Su Mian certainly knew how to cut it, after all, she had studied it before coming, but that just shows that she couldn't cut out a perfect "囍" character.

If later players discover, while searching for clues, that the real bride cuts out the double happiness symbol, they will surely connect it to this scene.

The red hair tie had already covered her expenses; whether or not the double happiness symbol was cut, she could keep it. So, the double happiness symbol absolutely could not be cut.

I'm afraid the killer might be too clever for their own good and cut out a perfect piece of evidence, only to find out later that it was one of the key clues.

Su Mian almost fell for a trap during a mid-game segment of a murder mystery game she played before.

So when she observed that Qiao Yinuo didn't know how, she demonstrated the normal steps. After Qiao Yinuo finished cutting, she secretly made a few more cuts, and the finished product became a mess.

When Mao's father saw the character "喆" that she had cut out, he frowned, waved his hand, and then went to look at the other characters.

The twins got their hair cut very well, but the newcomer struggled for a long time and couldn't get it done. However, she had the first round of hair ties to save her, and her father didn't say anything.

After spying on Su Mian, Qiao Yinuo successfully escaped a disaster.

After surveying the area, all the players had been shortlisted as brides, which meant they could all survive. Mr. Mao walked back to the platform and looked in another direction.

The people at the table near the door were all dressed very formally, in suits and ties, which contrasted sharply with the others. One of the middle-aged men stood up with a friendly smile.
