People are gambling crazily, their charm is super S

The system appeared after a long absence and reported the favorability.

"Because you gave Momobami Kirari the correct answer, her favorability towards you has increased a little."

Naoki was even more confused. Was the answer Kirari gave him true?

Really, I can’t see through it.

……

"Number 17, what's your suit?"

No matter how much Naoki struggled, it was time to answer.

"My color is plum blossom."

In the end, Naoki did not accept Kirari's reminder, nor did he trust No. 8, but chose to believe No. 16.

Because she believes in favorability.

Although No. 16 is not a conquerable character and you cannot see the specific value, you can still feel the other party's favorability.

The mask spoke and judged: "Answer—correct!"

bingo!

Naoki breathed a sigh of relief and immediately turned around to glare at Kirari.

You actually lied to me!

Kirari showed no guilt at all for lying, and said with her usual elegant smile, "Naoki, I said I was giving you a reminder, but I didn't say it was the right reminder."

And playing word games, I hate that the most.

However, the answer No. 16 gave herself was correct, and it seemed that she could be trusted.

As long as there is someone you can trust, you can get through this round of game safely.

In this round, some people finally started to be eliminated.

Number 24's chips were reduced to zero and he was eliminated.

As people started to be eliminated, the atmosphere on the scene began to become heavier.

Round 12.

Naoki turned around and asked No. 16: "What's my color?"

No. 16 was about to answer when No. 8 suddenly interrupted.

"Number 16, are you out of your mind? It's true that Number 17 saved your life in the last round, but she was kidnapped later and you also saved her. You two no longer owe each other anything."

"If you keep going like this, aren't you afraid that she'll cheat you in the last round, and you'll end up giving away the answer yourself?"

What is this woman number 8 doing? She was very nice to me in the last game, and she listened to me in everything. Now that she is no longer a teammate, she starts to make trouble.

When No. 16 heard what No. 8 said, he was a little doubtful, but still shook his head.

"At least Naoki isn't lying to me now."

Number 8 still didn't give up and continued, "Hey, Number 16, I know you have a crush on Number 17, but you don't know what kind of person she is in real life, do you?"

Naoki:? ? ?

"I happened to have heard of her. She's a well-known philandering scumbag in the academy. She has a girlfriend on the surface, but secretly has countless suitors."!!!

What the hell, how could Number 8 know my background? I don't even know her. Besides, no one except Sachiko Juraku should know that I'm two-timing.

"what?"

After hearing this breaking news, No. 16 was obviously stunned and looked incredulous.

That was the look of the person you love falling from the altar.

Number 8 said, "This kind of thing is well known in her college. She changes girlfriends every month and has countless backups. Of course, her backups are people like you."

"Take the initiative to show some goodwill and favors, keep them hanging, and dump them when you get tired of playing with them."

The gossips No. 8 talked about became bigger and more specific, and Naoki felt relieved.

Because what she said was completely wrong. He did not change his girlfriend every month, and it was not known to everyone.

The information doesn't match, which means that No. 8 is completely making things up.

Woman No. 8 is very good at lying and has a talent for lying calmly. At least with Naoki's current level, he didn't realize that the other party was talking nonsense at the first time.

"Number 8, you're trying to sow discord, but your words are quite despicable. Do you expect others to believe you just by making up some nonsense?"

Naoki said calmly, looking at No. 16: "No. 16, I helped you before completely out of my own goodness. But No. 8 is right, you saved me once, you don't owe me anything anymore."

"Your answer now, and mine, is based on the most primitive trust, not any favor relationship."

After hearing what Naoki said, No. 16, who was originally shocked and unbelievable, slowly returned to normal.

Number 8 raised his lip slightly and said, "Number 16, do you really believe the nonsense that Number 17 said?"

Naoki:?

This woman hasn't given up on sowing discord yet?

Number 8 pointed at Kirori and said, "In the fourth round, the woman in front of you who said she saved you out of her own conscience actually deceived Number 10 together with us."

"Do you remember how she sounded when she first explained her reasons for saving you? Because the mask was the real enemy behind the scenes, not everyone else."

"But this time, when her own interests were involved, she began to betray her partner Number 10 from the previous round. Do you think what she said to you was true?"

"She saved you just to win people over. In the last round, I had a gun. Even if you behaved strangely after I saved you, we could have eliminated you. She didn't take any risks at all."

Naoki:……

Oh no, my previous move of suppressing and then praising in order to win over Kirari will cause No. 16 to misunderstand.

Sure enough, after hearing No. 8's words with such clear logic and detailed reasons, No. 16's expression when looking at Naoki began to change.

"Number 16, I don't know how to explain this to you, but time is running out. Let's get this round over with first."

Number 16 took a deep breath, exhaled, and said, "Okay, Naoki, your suit is spades."

Naoki also looked at the pattern of number 16.

"You are Heart."

……

"The countdown for the twelfth round has ended. Now all players will reveal their suits."

Number 8 still passed smoothly.

Qi Luoli didn't know who she contacted, but she accurately described the pattern.

Number 16 said the red heart answer given by Naoki and passed the test successfully.

It was Naoki's turn.

Of course she chose to believe what No. 16 said.

"My suit is spades."

“Answer—Wrong!”

The mask's pronouncement of right and wrong, just like every time before, hit Naoki's heart like a huge hammer.

No. 16 lied to her and didn't tell her the real pattern.

Because time was running out, Naoki didn't go to check with anyone else.

"Number 17 answered incorrectly this round, and one hundred chips will be deducted."

Naoki frowned and looked at No. 16: "You still don't believe me?"

Number 16 looked at Naoki with a complicated expression. He looked at Naoki for a while and said, "Naoki, you didn't lie to me, but I lied to you. If I said I was just testing you, would you believe me?"

"I will tell you the correct answer next, if you still believe me."

Naoki frowned, not knowing whether No. 16 was about to turn against him or was simply shocked by No. 8's words.

Is he really trying to test whether he trusts her? Such words sound like a lie.

However, he only had 10 chips left, and if he failed again he would lose everything.

The risk is too great.

Kirari quietly came to Naoki and said, "Naoki, you should cooperate with me. I will tell you the clues."

Naoki:……

Do I have to tell myself another tip that I don’t know whether it is true or false?

These women don't know who to trust anymore.

If Jule Sachiko were here, she would easily be able to tell who was lying.

……

[Sister Jule, your mind-reading skills are amazing. I'm so envious. I just can't learn this kind of talent.]

"To be as accurate as I am does require talent. But if it's just about judging whether someone is lying, it's much easier."

"Ah, you're not talking about those lie detector machines you see on TV shows, are you? Even if they really work, you wouldn't put one on your opponent when gambling."

[There are books on psychology and micro-expressions, but you might not be able to read them all. Also, everyone's habits are slightly different, so observation is the most important thing.]

[After all this talk, there's nothing I can use immediately.]

[Why would you use it? If you need it, just contact me like last time.]

but……

But now I am in the virtual game world and have no way to get in touch with her.

Wait, is there really no way?

Naoki turned on the game cabin function. Although the function of exiting the game was disabled, the other functions were still there.

One of them is the emergency contact function, which is a built-in function to prevent accidents.

It is estimated that some people have used it to contact their families, but it is obvious that the outside world has not yet found a way to lift the blockade and rescue them.

Naoki made an Internet call through the game cabin with trembling hands.

I hope Jule Xingzi will answer an unfamiliar number late at night.

I don’t know what time it is now.

A long minute passed.

A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Naoki was almost in tears.

[Naoki? I had a feeling it was you before I answered the phone.]

[Wow, Sister Jule, your mind reading skills are so amazing, please help me quickly.]

There was a chuckle from the other end of the phone.

"Is this the reason you're looking for me late at night? Who are you gambling with again?"

[Anyway, the situation is a bit complicated, so I'll keep it short.]

Naoki told Sachiko Juraku about the current situation of the game.

I don’t know if she can still read minds since there is no video this time.

【Kirari is also in the gambling game? 】

[Well, I feel like she's trying to deceive me.]

While connected to the internet, Naoki started the 13th round. In the previous round, another person was eliminated.

[Naoki, based on your description, without your tone or facial expression, it's a little hard to tell if you're lying.]

Naoki felt a little disappointed. Was there nothing Sachiko Jura could do about it even though they were connected through the Internet?

[However, according to the rules of this game, there are still clues.]

[The game is about random suits, right? Since it's a computer-generated one-in-four chance, you understand.]

Naoki felt that something he had been ignoring had finally come to light.

Since it is a random probability, and there are still 8 people alive, the probability is calculated as one in four, that every two people present have the same suit.
