I Went Viral After Dating a Superstar-Chapter 164 - 153 Program
Thinking this, he walked over and, looking at Mu Qianli’s expression, his own face brightened considerably.
"Hey, Sister Qianli is here." Mu Qianli was applying makeup, and he sat down.
"What else? I’m just sitting here. If it’s not me here, could it possibly be my spirit?"
"..."
If it were any other day, Gu Xunyi would have been upset by her retort, but now he thought it was good, she was indeed trying to catch his attention on purpose.
Otherwise, when he came to greet her, would she have been so dismissive?
Forget it, she still seemed quite feminine when one looked at her.
He smiled slightly, with an incredibly warm expression.
Mu Qianli was so startled that her hand shook.
What’s with him, what conspiracy is he plotting?
How could he smile so happily?
She watched him, grateful that, at that moment, the show was about to start filming.
Everyone entered the filming mode. In the detective show, everyone, dressed up for their parts, included the regular guests as well as Mu Qianli and Gu Xunyi, totaling seven.
They were all seasoned players by now, so when they saw Mu Qianli and Gu Xunyi, they didn’t give them much face, even deliberately teasing them by assigning them the most difficult tasks.
Once they entered, the official outline of the detective segment was announced.
"The case starts today, everyone. As you can see, anyone present could be the criminal, and anyone could be the detective. Of course, the criminal knows they’re the criminal, and the detective is aware they’re the detective, but civilians understand nothing.
The detective has one chance to investigate who the criminal is and can directly ask which person is the criminal. The answer will be given in private, but civilians will not know this.
Likewise, the criminal gets one chance to kill and can find and eliminate the detective."
The game had some similarities with Werewolf, yet it was different.
The process of investigation wasn’t just narrative; various props and clues from the crime scene would also be provided.
After explaining, someone spotted Mu Qianli.
"I think the production team might try to provide the new players with a presence at the beginning for us to feel something fresh since we old-timers are all too familiar with how each other speaks when playing the criminal, which we might see through."
Several eyes turned towards Mu Qianli.
"Oh, doesn’t that mean Sister Qianli is very likely to..."
Mu Qianli smiled, "I feel that the one who starts off by assigning someone as the criminal is probably the criminal themselves."
Gu Xunyi said, "Why not the detective?"
Mu Qianli replied, "What did you hear him say? He said, when someone’s the criminal, we might see through them. He didn’t mention the detective at all. What does that tell you? It shows he’s focused on catching the criminal."
"..."
Everyone was stunned and turned their gazes toward the person who had just spoken.
"Wow, looks like the newbies aren’t so green after all, pretty sharp. You must have played quite a bit of Werewolf."
Mu Qianli said, "I’ve also been following Detective Conan since the second grade, and I’m not only good at Werewolf, you know!"
"..."
The case started quickly.
Mu Qianli was indeed a detective fanatic. Not just the Detective Conan series, she had also devoured a fair share of Japanese mystery novels.
So, right off the bat, she figured out it was a locked-room murder mystery.
Then she summarized various methods of committing a locked-room murder.
While others were still gathering evidence, she had already begun to profile the murderer based on criminal psychology.
Mu Qianli looked at everyone lightly, "I think, for him to use a locked room to commit murder, there are two possibilities, one is to create an alibi, and the other is to divert everyone’s attention. You’re thinking too hard if you imagine the criminal as an incredibly meticulous person with high intelligence. After all, the production team also can’t make the case too difficult. It’s not meant to trouble someone’s intelligence, like Handsome Gu, right?"
