Chapter 383 Infighting
Chapter 383 Infighting
Players of the "Death Game" are chosen to enter this game because they have a "strong desire to live."
This means...
Although many people who become "players" will feel dissatisfied with such a life of having to complete a dungeon once a week and being worried all day long, even Lin Yu has occasionally complained in his heart.
But no one will give up their life because of this.
Only those whose obsession with "survival" surpasses everything else can become "players"... This is the common characteristic and background of all participants in the "Death Game".
Therefore, despite the "suicide note" as evidence, everyone agreed with Liang Ye who spoke out.
"How could it be suicide?"
In the hotel room, Fu Luo looked at Cassiae's body, frowned and murmured.
"But... no matter how you look at it, it's suicide."
The pistol that Cassiae used to commit suicide was a Browning M1906. It was not a [prop], but a pistol that can be bought in real life.
After entering through the jaw, the bullet remained in the skull.
Because the caliber of this pistol was small, the bullet barely damaged Cassia's face.
Lin Yu looked him up and down. This craftsman from the Players Mutual Aid Association was not tall and had an ordinary face.
Most importantly, there was no sign of fear or struggle on his expression before his death.
"Have you used your 'detective' ability?"
Lin Yu asked.
"Yes, the clues show that it is on the body," Fu Luo touched his chin, "I am waiting for the preliminary identification results."
"The fingerprint test on the pistol was positive, and the angle of the shot was consistent with suicide."
"The most important thing is... this time it's shorter."
Fu Luo pointed outside the door - there was a sturdy man sitting on the floor of the corridor outside, sighing and seeming unable to accept the reality.
He is the 'Lotus' of the 'Players' Mutual Aid Association'.
The deaths of Radish and Cassia seed one after another were obviously a blow to him.
Lin Yu understood his feelings very well.
Especially Cassiae's suicide note, which was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back for Lotus.
"I did it. I killed Carrot. For the future of the Players' Mutual Aid Association, I had to do it, but I will atone for it with my own life. I have to do this. I'm sorry. I have to do this!"
Lin Yu's gaze once again turned to the location of the suicide note, which was placed next to Cassia seed's hand.
"I always feel like there's something strange about this suicide note..."
Lin Yu muttered.
"Yeah, you feel the same way," Fu Luo took off his baseball cap and replaced it with a knitted hat. "His suicide, his suicide note, his confession... all of them reveal a sense of dissonance."
"If the original clues were puzzle pieces... we had almost put them together, but after the news of this guy's death came out, it immediately seemed as if all the pieces were misplaced."
Fu Luo said distressedly.
Lin Yu also nodded.
Indeed, Cassia seed should not have died.
According to his and Fu Luo's reasoning, Cassia seed is definitely not the murderer!
Just as Lin Yu was thinking, Hannah's voice rang out.
"Gua, Mr. Director, Lao Zheng said he has a clue for you."
"What clue?"
Lin Yu communicated with Hannah in his heart.
"Guah, Lao Zheng said that this guy's death was indeed suicide, but he was 'hypnotized'."
"The evidence is that suicide note—he said there's an 80% chance it was written by someone from the Psychological Society."
After hearing this, Lin Yu was stunned for a moment.
After Lao Zheng's guidance, Lin Yu understood what was wrong with this "suicide note".
Indeed, even though people may go through intense inner struggles before committing suicide, hastily written suicide notes often contain strong emotional content.
But the phrase "I have to do this" appears repeatedly in this suicide note... It seems too much like some kind of compulsive behavior or intrusive thoughts.
"So, he was induced to commit suicide... When? Is there anyone from the 'Psychology Society' here?!"
Lin Yu was a little shocked.
"Well, Lao Zheng said it was a 'switch' - suggesting that it might have existed a long time ago, and something just flipped the switch in his subconscious, prompting this idea to come true."
Lin Yu listened to Hannah's words and understood again.
Yes……
That's right.
He looked at Fu Luo.
"Forboluo, I have completely understood the truth."
"We're not wrong. The reason this piece of the puzzle doesn't fit is because we've got cause and effect wrong—it's not part of the 'cause' of Radish's death, but the consequence that Radish's death will cause."
"His suicide note suggests this guy might not have been in his right mind when he committed suicide."
Fu Luo looked at Lin Yu and immediately reacted.
"But that's just your guess, right?"
Lin Yu nodded - he knew that this was not a guess, after all, he had the endorsement of the expert Lao Zheng.
But he couldn't move Lao Zheng out.
"But it is the most reasonable guess at the moment."
"I still need to confirm it." Fu Luo turned and looked behind him. Liang Ye and Li Hua were still guarding the door on either side. "Please call the person at the door in. I have something to ask him."
Liang Ye made an OK gesture and then dragged Hehua in.
"Don't cry here, you idiot. You're still fighting... I have something to ask you."
He Hua was brought in front of Fu Luo and Lin Yu in a somewhat dejected manner.
"Do you two have any questions? I've already told you everything I know about the deaths of Radish and Cassia."
Fu Luo waved his hand: "I didn't ask you that. Tell me about the recent factions within the Players Mutual Aid Association... As someone close to Luo Bo, you should know about it, right?"
Lotus was visibly stunned: "Does this matter?"
"Are you stupid? The brother who went on a mission with you left a suicide note saying he killed the person he was protecting for the organization, and now you're asking if it matters?"
Fu Luo said with a look of disappointment.
After being scolded, He Hua's face turned pale and she was obviously a little angry.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what Fu Luo said made sense, so he finally spoke.
"Indeed, there have been many different voices within the organization recently..."
"Although we are a relatively loosely structured organization, we still have 'positions' - Mr. Carrot has always been the leader of our entire organization."
"He is one of the founders and the oldest, so it is only natural that he should be the one."
"However, as the Players' Mutual Aid Association's membership grew, and the strength of those who joined later grew, they began to become dissatisfied with the current organizational philosophy of the Players' Mutual Aid Association."
"So... over the past two months, calls for re-election of leadership or the formation of a new decision-making body have been growing louder."
Lotus said this with some regret: "But I didn't expect that they would actually kill people!"
