The clone looked at the smiling mayor and became more vigilant.

"Okay, thank you for being willing to listen to my half-buried old man telling stories, young travelers." The mayor sat next to him, holding the teapot, hunched over, showing off his half-hearted tea skills, while

He sighed slightly intoxicatedly: "... I believe you all know something about the curse of Trilli Town. The townspeople... live in fear of monsters every day and every night, and no one knows what death will be like."

Sometimes it will fall on you..."

"How long has this been going on?" Edward asked, leaning back in his chair.

"Actually, the situation was not so bad originally." The mayor sighed slightly: "This situation was terminated ten years ago - the great God told us that He will definitely send His blessings to protect us. But, I don't know why.

,Recently, this situation has happened again..."

"Ten years ago?" Edward raised his eyebrows: "Mayor, what is the origin of the curse?"

"Origin..." The mayor spoke in a low voice, and the wrinkles on his face looked like they could kill a fly: "It should have started decades ago, after [that person] arrived in Trili Town..."

Edward looked a little more serious.

"It was an extremely sunny day. I was still young at the time, and the town of Trili was peaceful..." the mayor said: "But the [hunter] in the village brought back a child. He was a wolf boy... who had been ganged up on since he was a child.

Raised by wolves, we rescued him...

We gave him food, bought him clothes, taught him how to read, and taught him to be a normal person... All of us thought that life would go on until one day..."

His tone was slow and filled with deep sorrow, as if he had fallen into a valley in an instant:

"——We just discovered what kind of monster we rescued."

"Crash——!"

The tea bowl in Jasmine's hand was knocked over and spilled all over the clone nearby. She rushed in quickly and kept bending down to apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I didn't mean to..."

Her hands were shaking. Even after she stood up, her hands were shaking as if they were twitching.

The clone noticed that there was a layer of fine fuzz on the back of her hand.

"Jasmine, why are you so careless..." The mayor seemed to be lifting her gently, not even intending to change clothes for the clone: ​​"Be careful next time, you know?"

The doting in those eyes drags people down like deep water.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry -!" Jasmine nodded her head as if she was pounding garlic, her fingers pinched the hem of her skirt tightly, the blue and white color was particularly obvious, as if she would not give up until she got a response.

The girl's voice was clear and crisp, but it sounded particularly noisy at this moment.

But suddenly, the clone's body shook violently.

"Travelers from the outside world, our story..." The mayor seemed to want to continue telling his story, but he watched the clone kick over the stool and jump out with a "swish".

"Traveler No. 1, Traveler No. 1? Don't you want to listen to my story?" He shouted from behind, but the clone had already rushed out like lightning.

…

In front of the ancestral hall, Su Ming'an elbowed the villager who was surrounding him in the stomach, knocking him unconscious. The next moment, a blood-stained stick was about to hit his head.

With a "bang" sound, he caught the stick with one hand, but the sudden burst of strength from the villager, who looked obviously thin, actually made his wrist sore and numb.

The woman with red eyes on the side was not to be outdone, and swung her hoe over, just as it was about to scratch his waist. He instantly exerted force, and spatial fluctuations appeared instantly, knocking the woman in front of him upside down, and then attacked all the way behind him.

The townspeople were overwhelmed.

"boom"!

He grabbed the stick and hit the man behind him on the forehead. Watching him roll his eyes and fall to the ground, Su Mingan moved his sore wrists. After confirming that no one could still stand, he looked at Yamada Machichi who was standing aside.

"Thank you." Yamada Machichi whispered.

Su Ming'an ignored him and squatted down to check on the townspeople.

[Have you discovered (the unconscious townspeople), do you want to start reconnaissance? (The clues obtained by reconnaissance are related to spirit and wisdom)]

[*You have obtained clue three: The fluff on the back of your hand]

[(Fuzz on the back of the hand): You find that the body hair on these townspeople seems to be too lush, like downy]

[Get 10 exploration points]

[The clues have been recorded in the clue column and can be viewed at any time.]

He had some guesses about the situation in this world, but he still needed further clues. Thinking that the clone should have finished chatting with the mayor about the story now, he turned his attention to it——

He saw himself in the clone's eyes.

He turned around and saw the clone who had just arrived, with lingering fear still in his eyes.

"Didn't I arrange for you to talk to the mayor?" Su Mingan frowned. He didn't know how this clone came back without permission.

"But, your situation just now was very dangerous." The clone looked at him.

Su Mingan felt something was wrong, something wrong with his skills.

He suddenly realized that this core skill... might sometimes be out of his control.

He still cares about the "independent personality" mentioned in the skill introduction.

...Although it is good to have wisdom and it does not require dual-line control, it cannot do everything in place.

"Remember this." Su Mingan said to him seriously: "From now on, as long as I don't change the order, you are not allowed to change it without authorization, no matter how dangerous my situation is, even if I am on the verge of death. If I die, use your career points to resurrect me.

——Precious clues are more important than my life, do you understand?"

"……Understood."

"Go back now and listen to the rest of the story." Su Ming'an asked him to go back quickly, and then looked at Yamada Machichi next to him.

"How do you want me to repay you?" Yamada Machi stared at him with black currant eyes.

"Are you a werewolf?" Su Mingan asked while looking at the collapsed ancestral hall in front of him.

"If so, will you kill me?" Yamada Machi said with a slightly trembling voice.

"I am a witch, of course I will kill you."

"……I'm not."

"Very good, then tell me the clues you got?" Su Mingan tilted his head.

"...I didn't get any clues either." She pinched the corner of her skirt and her dull voice seemed to be covered with dust.

I almost laughed like crazy when I saw the barrage:

【Fairy dialogue, inexplicable sense of harmony hhhh】

【How can you open a store if you don’t have anything!】

[This lolita girl is so cute. I haven’t seen her live broadcast before.]

[I feel much cuter than Lin Jiang]

[You don’t really think they are harmless, do you??]

[Maybe it’s a wolf, it’s definitely not easy to explode like this.]

【I smell a new CP.】

[?Have you started again? Please go to the CP area of ​​the World Forum and don’t come here to bully me! 】

【……】

"Then get out of here." Su Mingan stopped talking to the girl.

He went to observe the collapsed ancestral hall, but unfortunately, he did not get any investigation tips. It seemed that this clue point had been destroyed.

When he raised his head again, Yamada Machichi was no longer there.

Su Mingan ignored the townspeople on the ground who had been knocked unconscious by him, and returned from here to look for clues in other parts of the town, but those NPCs just smiled at him and asked him in an extremely warm and intimate manner.

Stuff them with those fresh fruits.

The clone also returned to the mayor's room, but the story seemed to have been finished. Even the mayor and important target Jasmine were nowhere to be seen.

Only the door was locked and could not be opened using annihilation.

Coincidentally, when Su Mingan was collecting clues, he saw Edward walking from the side, holding something like a tablet.

He saw Edward giving him a provocative smile.

"...Although I don't know why, you didn't listen to the mayor's story completely. But...you missed a very important clue, Su Ming'an." Edward whispered softly: "This will be your downfall in this game - you

You can’t beat me.”

"The more provocative words you say, the lower your chances of winning." Su Mingan said: "Stop setting a flag for yourself."

Edward's eyes flashed coldly: "...Do you really think I don't dare to kill you in the daytime?"

"You don't dare." Su Ming'an looked at him with a smile: "Because you see your trump card clearly and know that you are not a prophet, so you admit that Lu Shu is a prophet and that I am a witch. Kill me, Lu

The tree will definitely not let you go. No matter you win or he wins, if one of the priests dies and both of them die, do you really have any hope of winning?"

"As long as I kill you in the eyes of everyone, the victory of the camp will have nothing to do with me..."

"——Edward." A cold female voice came from the right. Mizushima Kawa Sora walked here at some point, his steps as light as a black cat: "Don't say that."

Edward also realized that he had made a mistake. He closed his mouth and fixed his heavy eyes on Su Ming'an. Then he walked sideways towards Mizushima Kawakora and bumped into him hard.
