I’m Actually a Bigshot

Chapter 97: There are two murderers

Views:

White "snowflakes" fell from the sky, just like that little by little on the soil of the street, on the chocolate houses, and on the candies of various colors.

Some aborigines who were walking on the street also stopped because of the sudden snowfall. Instead of avoiding it because of the snow, they showed happy and interested expressions, looked up at the sky where the "snowflakes" were flying, and showed A smile like celebrating a holiday.

Some people even knead the black soil into balls, hold them in their hands for a while, and then they become ooo balls covered with "snowflakes", which are directly placed on the top of their heads to become the latest head decoration.

Su Qingxing and the others didn't know how long they stared at the "snowflake", but maybe because the snowflakes fell fast, the street and the surrounding buildings were covered with a layer of white in a short while.

Candy houses with white snow

That seems to be a scene only found in fairy tales, and it is also the favorite scene of cartoonists.

"It's not snow." Chu Bai stretched out his hand to catch a piece of white, and then said with a chuckle, "It's coconut flakes."

White desiccated coconut.

So in an instant, the world in front of me became different from the "beautiful snow scene" imagined by everyone. After knowing Xue's true face, what everyone sees now is...

Oo Oo crumbs dipped in shredded coconut.

Crystal candy dipped in coconut.

Coconut dipped chocolate.

Even marshmallows and mints with shredded coconut...

Thinking about it this way, the sweets outside seem not as sweet and greasy as imagined before, and there is a sudden urge to taste coconut chocolate and coconut marshmallow.

After adding shredded coconut, many desserts seem to become softer and more friendly.

"So it's snowing." An aborigine in a black and white uniform stood behind Su Qingxing and the others at some point. He had an ordinary face but a kind smile, and his small eyes were narrowed into slits. He looked like a very friendly person people.

For the aborigines, they may not have the concept of shredded coconut in their minds, they just think it is an ordinary weather change. It feels like you are looking at snow in the real world, but you don’t know that the snow that melts when it falls in the palm of your hand may be delicious sugar in the eyes of people in another world.

"Are you here to rest here?" The other party seemed to be the owner or employee of this rest station, "After all, you seem to have been standing here for a long time."

"Hello." Su Qingxing, as the captain of the participating team, nodded to the smiling gentleman behind him, "We came from a far away place and wanted to stay overnight, but I'm afraid we didn't carry enough..."

In the end, Su Qingxing didn't know how to describe the "currency" that Gourmet Planet used for transactions. He had seen it in a dessert shop before, and it seemed to be a kind of candy with golden sugar wrappers.

They who have just come to this world naturally cannot own the currency of this world, so Su Qingxing hopes to get help from the other party.

"That's right!" The gentleman still smiled kindly, "I am the owner of this inn, and we don't have many guests here on weekdays, so there are some vacant rooms for everyone to rest."

"Thank you." Everyone thanked like a good boy, and suddenly felt that the aborigines on this planet were also quite warm.

"But I have one condition." The boss was still smiling, "How about you helping out at the inn tonight and tomorrow morning? I wonder if this will affect your schedule?"

"No problem." Su Qingxing felt that the conditions proposed by the other party were reasonable, "It's just that we haven't done similar work, and if we do something wrong, please ask the boss for advice."

Facing the kind smile on the boss's face, Su Qingxing also showed a gentle smile, and the two reached an agreement in each other's smiles, completing the agreement to replace the accommodation fee with work.

The rooms of Su Qingxing and his party were arranged on the second floor. Because they did not pay the accommodation fee, they rejected the boss's proposal of sharing a room for each person, and only wanted four rooms. Su Qingxing shared a room with Death God, Qiao Lu shared a room with Tong Yan, Chu Bai shared a room with Qin Guan, and the only woman, Murong, shared a room alone.

Because it is a gourmet planet, everything in the room is made of sweets, the bed is made of chocolate, the mattress is made of pillows and gummy candy, and the quilt is made of soft cotton candy.

The floor of the room seems to be coconut fudge sprinkled with shredded coconut, so it feels soft when you step on it, and there is a faint fragrance of coconut milk that permeates the room.

For unknown reasons, except for the very light coconut fragrance, Su Qingxing didn't smell the sweet smell of other desserts in the room, even if he was lying in the cotton candy-filled donuts by the window, except There is no other feeling other than relaxation and comfort.

"Very nice room." Although the god of death praised, but when he noticed that this room turned out to be a standard double room, that is, with two separate beds... his eyes still looked a little disappointed.

"I think it's better for us not to stay in the same room." Su Qingxing said such a sentence suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

Su Qingxing sighed, and said worriedly: "Although I don't know what happened before, I can be sure that I will be rude when I am hungry. If I am suddenly hungry in the middle of the night, I don't know if I will Will suddenly rush to your bed and do something bad."

"..." Reaper was silent for a few seconds, and then said very firmly, "No, I'm fine here, at least I can help fill my stomach. If you mistake other people for me, they may get hurt."

"I won't get hurt." In order to make his fiancé make up his mind, Death emphasized it again.

"That's right." Su Qingxing was convinced by the god of death in this way, and then got up from the sandwich sofa, opened the transparent candy door, and walked to the balcony of the guest room.

Standing on the open-air balcony like this, Su Qingxing could see more clearly the white shredded coconut falling from the sky, and the dark chocolate roof of the whole dessert town was covered with a layer of white, which looked extraordinarily beautiful.

Some fluffy shredded coconuts floated directly across Su Qingxing's cheeks and landed on his shoulders, like soft feathers brushing by, and they didn't feel disturbing at all. And the God of Death just stood beside Su Qingxing, watching his fiancé look up at "Snow", but the smile on his face was more beautiful than the surrounding snow scene.

You are looking at the snow, but I am looking at you.

The voices of Murong and the others came from outside the door of White Chocolate's room, which also reminded Su Qingxing of their promise to the owner of the inn. According to the agreement between the two parties, Su Qingxing and his party will work for the post station tonight and tomorrow morning.

"It's time for us to go downstairs." When Su Qingxing turned around, he saw the god of death staring straight at him, coughed lightly, and walked directly past the god of death towards the door.

"Do you like your own room?" Seeing a group of people going downstairs, the owner of the inn came up with a thick stack of things, "Fortunately, it is the off-season, if it is the peak season, everyone may have to be wronged in the lobby all night .”

"Boss, what do you need our help for?" Su Qingxing had already looked around, but didn't see anyone, only a few stacks of things on the surrounding tables.

Only then did Su Qingxing remember that the aborigines in this world don't need to eat, so places like hotels and dessert shops lack the content of taking care of guests' meals.

"This is a post station, of course it is a place to deliver letters and newspapers." The boss once again refreshed Su Qingxing's original guess, and handed them a large stack of black and white newspapers in his hand, "The postman will come to pick up newspapers and letters after a while. They will tell you the names and quantities of the newspapers you need, and you are responsible for sorting them out.”

"And I've sorted out the letters over there according to the blocks, just tell the postman to take them away." The boss said, clapping his hands, "There shouldn't be any problems with these tasks, right?"

"Understood." Su Qingxing took the lead to respond, "Even if you encounter any problems, the postman who came here should be more experienced than us, and you can ask them for advice then."

"That would be great." The smile on the boss's face became even brighter, "Then I have an affair with the female owner of the clothing store next door tonight, and I'll leave it to you here! It's really a good thing to see you, If I let her dove again this time, I may never have the opportunity to watch the snow with her again in this life."

As he said that, before the group could react, the boss had already gone out with cheers and dancing.

"..." Everyone silently watched the boss disappear from the door, and even Tong Yan, who was always said to be innocent, couldn't help but sigh at this moment, "This boss really trusts strangers like us."

Maybe the people on Gourmet Planet are really simple? "Besides this reason, Murong couldn't find any other explanation.

"Excuse me." At this time, several teenagers carrying candy bags lined up and walked in from outside the store, "We're here to pick up today's evening paper, isn't the boss here?"

"The boss is out, and we are here to help." Su Qingxing and the others each claimed a part of the newspaper, so as not to be in a hurry later, "If there is anything that is not thoughtful, please forgive me."

"Thank you everyone!" The teenagers looked more like newsboys than postmen. Some teenagers standing in front looked a little shy when they saw Su Qingxing, but they still greeted Su Qingxing with their companions. Su Qingxing and the others bowed politely, "Please give me your advice."

They're all very polite kids.

"Hello, I want 500 copies of "Daily New Dessert", thank you."

"Hello, 300 copies of the Decoration Guide, thank you!"

"400 copies of "Latest Landscape", thank you!"

"Trouble, I need 300 copies of "Apparel and Beauty."

"..."

Because the newspapers in everyone's hands are in stacks of 100 copies, everyone's movements and speeds are very fast, and the newspapers in their hands will be distributed soon. The teenagers in charge of delivering the mail also spontaneously and orderly walked to the other side of the table, neatly packing the letters into candy bags.

Just when Su Qingxing and the others felt that the matter could end easily, a somewhat hasty figure rushed into the store door, which caught Chu Bai's attention.

"I seem to have seen him somewhere."

"I also think it looks familiar." Murong lowered his head and thought for a while, then he suddenly realized, "Is it the person who came in to distribute newspapers when we were in the dessert shop?"

Before Su Qingxing woke up, the boy rushed in and threw dozens of newspapers and turned to leave, so he left some impressions on Murong and the others.

"Sorry, I just finished posting the urgent issue, and then I heard that a new newspaper has arrived." If the boy was not on Food Planet, he might have been sweating profusely, "Please send all the "Local Law and Order" newspapers to Me, thank you!"

Hearing what the young man said, Su Qingxing and the others discovered that there was still a large pile of black and white newspapers in the corner, and the layout looked somewhat similar to the one they had read before.

Before handing the newspapers to the young man, Chu Bai and the others took out a few newspapers and said to the young man, "How about keeping these few newspapers here?"

"Of course." The boy nodded immediately, his expression still a little anxious, "I have to keep some to distribute to the guests who come and go here, so you can get a few more!"

After the boy left with the newspaper, there was no one else in the store except the people from Ghost Town No. 666, so everyone sat down around a certain table and began to study the newspaper called "Local Law and Order".

All newspapers seem to be of the same material, and there aren't any dessert-like pops of color, just pure black and white. And this time, there was no picture on the front page of the newspaper, but a big line written in a shocking font——

"Forty-five people were killed and their bodies were incomplete!"

Below the title, there is also a very detailed description of the time and place where the killing occurred, as well as several areas where the incident concentrated. Later, in a very stern tone, he told the residents near the dangerous area not to go out alone in the near future, or simply move to a safer place temporarily.

According to the dangerous places pointed out in the article, Su Qingxing found that the places where the murder...or cannibalism cases occurred were mainly distributed in two blocks. But because they don't know the map here, no one knows where the two blocks are and how far they are from each other.

Sitting there, Chu Bai, who was in charge of analyzing and interpreting the newspaper, read all the way down, even recited the methods of self-protection in case of danger and the skills of how to identify dangerous people, before being stopped by Tong Yan who was a little sleepy , and sincerely begged Chubai to stop.

"Brother Chubai, there should be no point here, right? Let's analyze the demon mentioned in the report! That guy should be the little girl we saw in the newspaper before? What did you say earlier? ? Ogra?"

"It's Ogre FT, a perverted murderer named Ford Taut." Chu Bai corrected Tong Yan's weird way of thinking, and directly turned the newspaper in front of him, pointing to a certain place and said, "Isn't it just a near miss here?" Missing point?"

As if Chu Bai had won, he just pointed to the line of small characters at the end of the article.

When everyone sitting around the table stretched their necks to look at it, they finally saw clearly the key line that said—the portrait of the suspect is on the back.

"Well, this is indeed very important information." Tong Yan admitted defeat.

What happened next surprised everyone. After all, before Chu Bai turned the newspaper to the wrong side, everyone thought they would see the girl Qiao Lv had mentioned before...

But in fact, there are two different portraits of the suspect on the back of the newspaper, and they are still a man and a woman.

On the right is a photo of a young Western girl. Although the color is black and white, it can be seen that her face is round and cute, with some freckles. There is no heavy makeup on her face, and her expression is in a calm and smiling state. The light-colored long curly hair hangs over the shoulders, and there is a big bow headband on the top of the head. The similar tutu skirt she wears adds a little childlike feeling to the girl herself.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a man-eating devil, but like a cute princess preparing to perform on the school stage.

And the man in the photo on the left...in a suit and leather shoes, with his head back erect, with a thin face and a high nose bridge, has nothing to do with it and is also a little different from the orientals. He also wears a pair of glasses decently, and his expression looks a little serious.

Is this also a suspect for cannibalism

No, this kind of thing, which is similar to a passport photo, is what the newspaper calls a "portrait"? Su Qingxing felt that he had never seen such a realistic portrait of a criminal suspect.

"I know this person." Chu Bai suddenly pointed to the male portrait on the left.

"Someone you know? No, someone Bai Chu knew?" Su Qingxing looked at Chu Bai, but the other party just shook his head.

"It's not counted as an acquaintance. It's just that I know him and he doesn't know me. After all, Bai Chu only saw this person's introduction in a book. At that time, this person had been dead for decades." Seeing from Chu Bai's expression It sounds a bit complicated, "This person is Ford Taut."

"What, this is Tetete?! Could it be that these two are actually teammates? One is the murderer at the beginning, and the other is a fan who later admired Tetete? Now the idol and the fans commit crimes together?" Tong Yan still couldn't remember The name of the person in the portrait.

"Qiao Lv, have you seen this person?" Su Qingxing turned his head to look at the wheelchair, and now the only person who has seen other ghost town teams here is Qiao Lv.

"No." Qiao Lu's voice sounded immediately, "I'm sure that there is no such man in the two teams that appear within a kilometer here, and there is no similar person in the team of the blonde girl."

"There should be four teams descending into this world, that is to say, there is one team farther away." Su Qingxing took the newspaper and read it again.

"Here." Death's finger also tapped on a certain line, "Two dangerous areas, two blocks, two prisoners, the distance may be very far."

"Mr. Shen is right." Chu Bai also nodded in agreement, "If Qiao Lu hadn't picked up Mr. FT nearby, then it's very likely that even this girl wouldn't have noticed that her idol was competing with her on the same stage. .”

"For star fans, they might be so excited that they would cry, right?" Murong sighed, "However, since this newspaper has started to be distributed, this young girl will soon know about this big surprise, Surprise! "

Mr. Shen? Su Qingxing was stunned when he heard Chubai call the god of death, and then looked at the god of death beside him strangely. Could it be that this guy introduced his name to others as... Shensi

Although death...meditation...sounds very convenient, but when he thinks of this name, Su Qingxing feels that some things he deliberately wanted to forget surfaced again, and he couldn't forget them afterwards.

"Okay, that's all the information in the newspaper at the moment." Chu Bai took out a pen from the pocket inside his white coat as he spoke, "Let's list a few important doubts."

"Where did this pen come from?" Tong Yan, a curious baby, asked online.

"Don't ask questions that are not the main point..." Although Chu Bai said so, he still answered honestly, "I found it in the drawer of the bedside table in the room."

After finishing speaking, Chu Bai pressed the pen in his hand and began to write on another unnecessary newspaper——

First, what is the authenticity of newspaper information

The second point, if the information is true, is there an acquaintance between the two suspects

The third point, why eat a full forty-five people

The pen in Chu Bai's hand is like a bubble pen that children like, squeezing out a thin layer of chocolate sauce, writing words on the newspaper, leaving a strong smell of chocolate.

However, the chocolate pen did not overwhelm the host in the end, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but stay on the third question.

"Even if you think about the first and second questions carefully, you can't think of any definite answers, but the third question... I also think that no matter how hungry these two people are, there is no need to eat so many aborigines?" Mu Mu Rong imagined that scene and felt a little headache, "Even if you don't eat all forty-five people, your stomach is not endless."

How much can a person eat in one meal

If you eat two roast chickens in a row, can you continue to stuff your stomach

After all, the aborigines here are not small thumbs, but ordinary people who are about the same height, fat and thin. Under such circumstances, how much did these two human-looking devils eat

"It's just like a bottomless pit." Qin Guan, who had been listening silently by the side, couldn't help but whispered, and suddenly jumped up from his seat in the next second, pointing directly at Tong Yan, "It's a bottomless pit! It's indeed a bottomless pit." ! They keep eating because they can’t get enough to eat!”

The faces of the people around also changed drastically.

"What's going on?" Tong Yan hasn't grasped the key point yet, "What are you pointing at me for? I'm not that Tetete. My staple food is strawberry-flavored marshmallows."

"Qin Guan didn't want to say that you are a murderer." Su Qingxing also had a clear face at the moment, "He just wanted to say that these two murderers may be the same as you before, no matter how much you eat, you can't fill your stomach."

"No matter how much you eat, you can't fill your stomach?" Tong Yan thought for a moment, "But the reason why I can't eat is because I thought that all marshmallows are the same, but after I found out that what I needed was strawberry flavored marshmallows, I'm filling my stomach in no time."

"What if... every aborigine's taste is different?" Death asked grimly.

"..."

There was an eerie silence.

"If the murderer's staple food is aborigines, then they are likely to be like Tong Yan, thinking that all aborigines are the same and can fill their stomachs... But they didn't realize that the aborigines are actually the same as the cotton candy in the flower bed. Each flower has a different taste." Su Qingxing broke the silence and summed up his thoughts.

"So, I'm so hungry that I can only continue to eat." Death's right hand tapped the table, "People are different from cotton candy, and they can't even distinguish the taste by color."

Here's what Ghost Town Team 666 guessed—

The staple food of these two contestants should be aborigines, and they chose such a staple food probably because of Mr. FT's hobbies during his lifetime and the respect of the lady behind him for Mr. FT.

But not long after entering the gourmet planet, the first wave of hunger hit, and everyone began to look for their staple food and try to fill their stomachs.

These two people thought that their staple food was aborigines, and that every aborigine in front of them could fill their stomachs. But what they didn't expect was that every aborigine's taste might be different.

Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill behind them. After all, they never thought about thinking about the taste of the aborigines. Perhaps this is what fundamentally differentiates them from these two murderers.

When I left the reception earlier, that Miss Lemon once said that apart from the staple food, no matter what I ate, I would not be able to fill my stomach, nor would I be able to make the tortured hunger go away.

Su Qingxing and the others have all experienced that kind of hunger, so they know how crazy they will be when they are hungry. So they could imagine those two murderers desperately eating, desperately trying to fill their stomachs!

But most of what they find are different tastes, no matter how many or even dozens of them they eat, they can’t fill their stomachs. There is only one thing they can do—keep eating, eat more !

"The aborigines here are all very kind." Tong Yan said, "Whether it's the uncle boss here, the clerk of the dessert shop before, or the postman boys...they look no different from ordinary people, and are even better than many people. Both better and kinder."

Others also showed expressions of approval.

At this moment, Su Qingxing found that the mentality of his teammates had changed. Before that, they never seemed to have considered the existence of the aborigines, and they didn't pay much attention to these aborigines walking around the food planet.

But at this moment, there was worry in everyone's eyes.

Worry about the Aboriginal people.
