As I said before, this game is a tutorial for beginners.
In other words.
There is a way to cheat in this game.
But the way Gu Moli thought of was completely different from the other three. The other three wanted to hinder other detectives from exploring and solving the case, or even kill other players, but this option was rejected by Gu Moli from the very beginning. Although he understood their ideas, he did not agree with them.
You ask why
Check out the game tips yourself.
Tip: Think faster. This is a competitive game. What you need is absolute speed. But on the other hand, maybe making others slower is also a way. However, I don’t recommend it. After all, can a famous detective who suppresses his peers still be called a famous detective
Did you see it
Didn’t the system say that it doesn’t recommend this solution
Then why use it
For Gu Moli, the real purpose of this reminder is not the following information about obstructing others, but the first sentence at the beginning: think faster.
This is translated.
It's actually a brain teaser.
Then the answer is obvious.
The system is reminding players that seemingly complex problems can actually be easily solved by changing your way of thinking. The only difference is the way of thinking.
Now.
Let's take a look at the specific information of the twelve cases, pull up the game menu, and look at the background and settings of this detective copy word by word.
Background: It was a sunny morning. A large-scale mass murder occurred in Sheti City, which is known as the safest city in the world. The cause of death was various, including shooting, poisoning, strangulation, crushing, beheading, etc. In each city, the police detained a considerable number of suspects, but could not find the real culprit. As a famous detective in Sheti City, you will work with several other famous detectives to assist the police in solving this serial murder case.
There are three suspicious areas.
The first is the name of this city, Sheti City. Generally, there are few cities with such weird names, but it may just be the bad taste of the game itself, so let’s put it aside for now.
The second is the crime scene. There are twelve different crime scenes in the twelve urban areas within the inner ring of the city. Why are there twelve? Why are they placed in different places
The third is the cause of death. Shooting, poisoning, strangulation, crushing, beheading, too many methods of killing show that it is very difficult to solve the case. There is no similarity. It is very difficult to draw inferences from the case itself.
Let’s look at the script setting again.
The minimum difficulty to pass the level is to solve three cases.
The highest difficulty is to solve all twelve cases.
So here comes the question.
Since this is a novice copy, it is absolutely impossible to set an impossible goal. Although it seems difficult, there must be a way to achieve it. However, according to the third suspicious point in the previous background, too many causes of death make it more and more difficult to solve the case as time goes on.
According to Gu Moli's calculations, it is impossible to solve all the cases within one day.
Then the question goes back to the original game prompt.
Think faster.
It is impossible to solve all twelve cases within the time limit by solving them one by one, and there is no similarity in the modus operandi among all the cases.
What to do then
When you can't find a clue, review the known clues.
Gu Moli looked back at the first and second suspicious points regarding the background.
Sheti City, twelve crime scenes.
Sheti.
Most people may not know that these two words are actually the name of an ancient calendar, which uses sixty Jiazi as its operating cycle. It is also called Sheti Ji and Sheti Ge. This calendar uses the twelve Earthly Branches to divide time. The twelve Earthly Branches are Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, Hai, Zi, and Chou.
Recall the names of the twelve urban areas where the crimes occurred.
Those who are attentive should have discovered that the names of the urban areas that the previous players visited were Zi District, Wei District, Chen District, Si District, Wu District, Chou District... which just correspond to the twelve Earthly Branches.
That's right.
on the other hand.
Gu Moli also knew another theory, which was that the twelve Earthly Branches corresponded to the twelve months of the year.
Yin is the first month, Mao is the second month, Chen is the third month, Si is the fourth month, Wu is the fifth month, Wei is the sixth month, Shen is the seventh month, You is the eighth month, Xu is the ninth month, Hai is the tenth month, Zi is the eleventh month and Chou is the twelfth month.
So here comes the question.
How can we match the real culprit of the case with these twelve months
Birthday year and month.
So Gu Moli looked through the suspects' information again, which was very interesting. Among all the suspects in the twelve cases, the birth months of the suspects in eight cases were the same as the month corresponding to the subway station where the crime occurred. There was no duplicate suspect in any case.
As for the remaining four.
What a coincidence.
It just happens to correspond to the birth months of the four detectives played by the four players, Fireworks Fade Away, The Invincible, Watson, and Ferris Wheel of Love, and all other suspects have no corresponding ones. All that needs to be done next is to simply match them to the names, which is not difficult.
By the way, Gu Moli had obtained the information about the four detectives and the suspects from the police before coming.
certainly.
This kind of reasoning ultimately remained nothing more than speculation. In order to confirm that he was right, Gu Moli specifically contacted the police to compare several cases that had been solved, and finally confirmed the correctness of this reasoning.
What else is there to say
Solve the case!
After Gu Moli removed the system-related part of this reasoning, he told the young man everything from the name of Sheti City to the twelve Earthly Branches and months.
The latter clapped with a delighted smile on his face.
“Brilliant!”
"very good!"
Almost at the same time, Tianxia Wudi, who was lying on the ground, and Fulwasen, who had been hiding, showed expressions of disbelief after listening to Gu Moli's reasoning.
But after thinking carefully, they both sighed helplessly.
"... .All right."
Watson walked out of his hiding place and sat down against the wall. "I lost. I didn't find such an obvious clue... It seems that my reasoning ability is still far from perfect. I must practice it when I go back... If I can go back again."
After saying this, Watson just raised his head and didn't say anything else.
And the other side.
Tianxia Wudi was also lying on the ground, staring blankly at the ceiling of the factory. After a while, he had come out of his hysteria.
"... .hehe."
“This is really not worth it.”
Actually at the very beginning.
He really didn't want to kill anyone, but after getting the promise and help from the young man, he successfully exposed the case committed by Ferris Wheel, who was actually shot dead by the young man on the spot, saying that he had lost the qualification to play the game, and Tianxia Wudi witnessed this scene...
I have to admit that he gave up after that.
He thought: one person has already died, there is no turning back, I might as well just go down this path until the end...
“Tsk.”
"If my teacher knew about this experience, I would definitely be scolded to death."
The invincible man closed his eyes.

... ... ... ...
After receiving the system prompt, Watson and Tianxia Wudi suddenly looked up at the same time as if they had telepathy, opened their eyes and stared in the direction of Gu Moli.
"I am doomed to die, but you rose to power by stepping on my body. Don't just die so easily! Stay alive! And remember to burn incense for me every October 15th!"
"Remember! My name is Chu Di! I'm a graduate student in criminology at Kyoto University. I can't see my teacher anymore. Please, go tell my teacher and tell him that... I, Chu Di, failed to fulfill his... bastard. Forget it, let's not tell him. Let him think I went abroad..."
“… … ..”
Looking at the two people who were filled with grief and anger as well as a bit of reluctance and despair, Gu Moli nodded heavily.
"I see."
"I will take care of your last wishes..."
Oh, that's right.
I forgot to mention that our game company has always upheld the core socialist values of prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, friendliness, and the Eight Honors and Eight Shames. We are also a staunch supporter of anti-violence and bloodshed.
So this game won't kill anyone.
Gu Moli: “… ... ... ”
Watson: “… … … ”
Invincible: “… … … ..”
A moment later.
As the winner, Gu Moli took the first step and slapped himself hard on the forehead.
"Yeah! If you fail this game, you will get a title as a reward! How could someone die... Why didn't I think of it before... This is really stupid... Damn it."
So, in the empty factory, under the warm and gentle gaze of the mysterious young man, the shouts of the remaining two players rose one after another, and they were incessant: "Cao Nima!!!"
Ah...ah...ah...ah...
