NABC Chapter 703: Easily Passed!
Chapter 703: Easily Passed!
Miss Hugh, who had already sat down, also seemed to have obtained her own information.
But when she looked up, she appeared very confused.
"What I found was a romance novel, but the plot was very ordinary, and I couldn't find any clues even after reading it several times."
Miss Hugh described the contents of the books she had received.
Chu Yang couldn't help but ask about the specific details of the story.
The content of the book belongs to the individual, and no one else can see any part of themselves in the book, not even if they are standing next to each other.
Chu Yang had already tried it.
Miss Hugh began to carefully recount the story before her.
The story tells of a love affair between a very beautiful girl and another nobleman.
What's most surprising is that this story didn't have a happy ending.
However, it all came to a complete halt after that beautiful girl became the mistress of a nobleman.
It's as if some mysterious force erased the story halfway through.
"After reading the story several times, I really want to know the final fate of the girl in the story."
"I always felt that the ending wasn't very good, but the book didn't describe the ending at all."
Miss Hugh looked very disappointed.
The story did indeed sound very ordinary, and Mr. Abdul, who was standing to the side, racked his brains but could not figure out where the value of the information lay.
Chu Yang's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he knew in his heart that this was a story involving gods.
Even the two Chu Yangs in this story are now real angels.
But he dared not utter a single word more.
Of course, the most crucial point is that in the future, Miss Hugh will meet that noble lady, and then all the mysteries will be solved.
There's absolutely no need for the three of them to take risks together.
So Chu Yang stopped worrying about the problem, and the three of them prepared to enter the next level of the maze.
Mr. Abdul did not disclose the contents of the books he had received.
Fortunately, Chu Yang had no interest in uncovering his secret, so the matter was dropped.
As the three stepped into the passageway to the next level, a new scene appeared before them, accompanied by a sense of disorientation.
When Chu Yang regained consciousness, he looked up and saw the three of them standing together in front of a villa that looked somewhat idiotic.
The villa is surrounded by mountains, and the lush trees on the mountains look so natural.
It is situated in nature, yet possesses a certain tranquility and even eeriness.
In an instant, Chu Yang and his two companions became more alert.
Miss Hugh began to actively observe her surroundings.
She observed her surroundings with a small-scale approach, trying to gather as much information as possible.
"This villa is located on a cliff, surrounded by a bottomless abyss that is impossible to cross."
"It seems the only hope is a dilapidated suspension bridge."
"However, there is a highway right outside the suspension bridge."
Miss Hugh let out a heavy sigh of relief after she finished speaking.
Chu Yang carefully observed his surroundings and showed no panic despite being in a desperate situation.
Aside from the fact that this place posed no real threat to his life, what was more important was that he saw the hint in Fergus's secret message on his right.
"Point out who the murderer is!"
After reading it, Chu Yang smiled and said, "It seems that this time we've been given a crime scene."
"Our goal is to identify the murderer, which would prove that there are other people in the villa."
"However, we may only have one chance to identify the real culprit."
This made Chu Yang's expression change even faster.
"I'll do whatever you say."
Mr. Abdul had no objection, but simply turned his gaze to Chu Yang beside him.
Chu Yang smiled and nodded, then immediately led the two to the front gate of the villa and pushed it aside without hesitation.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Chu Yang saw eight people inside.
One of them was a child who looked to be only about five years old.
The glint in the child's eyes was enough to prove that his intelligence was already fully developed.
In addition, it is clear that this level has also assigned corresponding identities to the three of them.
The three of them barged into the villa so abruptly, but this did not surprise the other eight people inside.
"Looks like we're in deep trouble this time; we've run into this kid named Yarman again."
Mr. Abdul's face suddenly turned very ugly, and he even cursed without adding anything to the laughter.
"Mr. Abdul, is there something wrong with this child?"
Miss Hugh couldn't help but ask.
Her personality makes her very fond of children.
She also couldn't accept that someone would indiscriminately blame and berate the child in front of her.
Of course, she would only keep that disgust to herself and would never easily reveal it.
After all, anything can happen in this extraordinary world.
"This is the third time I've encountered this guy, and every time I do, the mission fails."
"This child seems to be cursed with bad luck."
"Each time, he would appear at a particular crime scene, and he would even display some extraordinary abilities."
"Every item he owns and every part of his body can display extraordinary power."
"Most importantly, his logical thinking and reasoning abilities are extremely strong. Not to mention children, even real adults cannot compare to him."
"Based on my previous experience, we only have one chance this time, and we can only identify the real killer."
"Yarman, this kid, always manages to quickly find the murderer and identify him using what he calls clues."
"In this way, only this child will succeed in passing the challenge; everyone else will be a failure."
Mr. Abdul was gritting his teeth as he spoke the last part.
He has his own secrets, and he paid a huge price to discover the passage to this underground labyrinth.
Each time he enters this place, it is an unprecedented gamble for him.
He only encountered this extremely unlucky little guy both times he read it this year.
"A five- or six-year-old child can make every piece of clothing he wears work with extraordinary power."
"Moreover, this child seems very intelligent and has strong reasoning abilities."
The name "Death God Elementary School Student" quickly came to Chu Yang's mind.
Combined with the massive boss in the original storyline.
He could already determine that this maze was definitely the work of the famous Emperor Roselle.
It was also through that guy who also came from the modern era that they were able to create all sorts of things that were exactly the same as those in the modern world as they continued to grow stronger.
"Since it's a work by Emperor Roselle, then this villa is very likely a case that appeared in the 'Bleach Elementary School' anime."
"In that case, my ability to solve cases isn't bad either."
Chu Yang was once obsessed with the Bleach Elementary School series, so he was very familiar with many of its contents.
While his thoughts were in a state of extreme confusion, the dozen or so people in the room were discussing a strange man wearing a doll-like headgear.
Based on their discussion, Chu Yang learned that the masked monster had appeared, and its fierce appearance terrified everyone.
"In that case, the guy with the cruel hood is very likely the murderer, but if we want to identify him, we have to wait until he reappears."
"To be on the safe side, we might even need to arrest him first, interrogate him, and then make the final identification."
Miss Hugh quickly came up with a solution.
After all, the so-called masked monster had not actually separated from its human form.
According to everyone's discussion, that guy's combat strength is just so-so, at most a little stronger than an average adult.
In this way, with extraordinary strength, it would be easy to capture him.
"The masked man could never be the real killer."
"Every time that damn kid shows up, the seemingly ordinary case undergoes a fundamental change."
"And the hooded giant they just mentioned is very likely to be the first to die."
"The real killer has definitely not yet appeared."
Mr. Abdul spoke without hesitation.
He had experienced similar situations many times before.
He was once as naive as Miss Hugh.
After being severely beaten twice in a row, he had already repented and reformed.
"I've found out who the killer is."
Chu Yang, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh.
The scene of the masked monster in front of him was so familiar to him.
He didn't need to look for the so-called killer at all.
"what?"
Mr. Abdul was completely stunned, and even cried out in surprise at the setback.
Regardless of whether Chu Yang is actually Manhattan's top student.
No matter how strong Chu Yang's reasoning ability is, it is impossible for him to quickly identify the real culprit without understanding the case.
This sounds like a complete fantasy.
Mr. Abdul's voice also drew everyone's attention.
Everyone turned their surprised and uncertain gazes toward Chu Yang.
Chu Yang pointed without hesitation to the only fat man in the room.
"This guy is the murderer."
People around immediately turned their attention to them.
Chu Yang had no intention of keeping them in suspense and continued to reveal the answer:
"This guy isn't actually afraid at all; his huge belly is because it's stuffed with cotton and various other filling materials."
"The sole purpose of doing this was to prevent everyone from becoming stiff, and to connect him with the skinny, hooded monster."
"The reason this fat man attacked the woman so quickly was because she had accidentally seen him changing clothes, which could potentially expose him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the fat man standing to the side looked grim, and several people immediately surrounded him.
Amidst the crowd's reprimands, the fat man removed the cotton wadding and various fillings hidden beneath his clothes.
At the same time, the scene of this old villa begins to crumble one by one.
This proves that Chu Yang and his group easily passed this hurdle.
They have very naturally pointed out the real culprit.
Abdu, who had been following Chu Yang and his companion, was now completely dumbfounded.
This guy sighed:
"I increasingly feel that all the money I spent was absolutely worth it!"
"If only I had become a detective sooner, I might have achieved my goal years ago."
Chu Yang, standing to the side, couldn't help but sigh inwardly:
"It's only because you managed to invite me; otherwise, inviting other detectives would have been a real hassle."
"It's even possible that the kid will actually win in the end."
Unlike the extremely shocked Mr. Abdul, Miss Hugh was already used to it.
She had long been accustomed to Chu Yang's omnipotence and extensive knowledge.
After passing this hurdle again, they returned to the library.
They each chose a seat and sat down.
Chu Yang was the first to sit down, eager to find out just how generous the rewards would be.
After taking his seat, Chu Yang was once again given a thin book.
The names on the book suggest that what he was given this time was likely some knowledge from the mystical side.
After receiving the book, Chu Yang took it very seriously.
He takes all knowledge about the world very seriously.
It's not just because of the extraordinary path he's chosen, but also because it concerns whether he can successfully overcome the known difficulties in the story.
After finishing reading the entire book in front of him, Chu Yang habitually stroked his chin.
"The extraordinary person recorded in the notebook followed the path of a wizard; this is his notebook."
However, it contains many mysterious rituals, which I already knew about.
However, there were some things inside that were useful to me.
Besides, the notebook's greatest use was in helping Chu Yang broaden his thinking in the realm of mysticism.
One method within it involves rituals and practices that invoke the power of a higher-dimensional being.
This made him suddenly realize that if he wanted to connect with the Fool, he didn't need to be like the other characters.
He could easily borrow power from the pure white eyes and, incidentally, enter the supreme black mist.
Although he couldn't put his ideas into practice immediately, he had at least found a new path.
This made Chu Yang very satisfied with the reward that this layer of the maze had given him.
"As expected of that person's work, even their creations in their spare time are so surprising."
When Chu Yang turned around, he found that Miss Xiu was already beaming with joy.
It's clear that she has found something that suits her perfectly.
"Looks like you had a good haul? This is the first time I've seen you smile so happily."
Chu Yang couldn't help but turn his head and ask.
"This is another story about a certain gentleman, except that the story mentions the potion recipe I need next."
"Although the recipe isn't comprehensive, it was still a pleasant surprise for me."
Miss Hugh's voice became somewhat cheerful, and her smile remained as radiant as ever.
Chu Yang, standing to the side, had a strange expression on his face.
He suddenly remembered that Miss Hugh's next step was to become a sheriff, and he knew all the potion recipes needed for that promotion. (End of Chapter)
