A Private Understanding

You know, just that nickname alone makes him sound pretty formidable, doesn't it?

The surrounding players immediately turned their gazes towards him, sizing him up.

Yimo, also intrigued, said to him, "So you're an experienced player, my apologies!"

"Now, Comrade Conan, tell us, who looks like a wolf right now!"

Upon hearing this, Conan stepped forward and said, "The game has just begun, it's too early to say who looks like a wolf."

After speaking, he specifically glanced at Boss Qian, who had used a game card to verify Yimo's identity.

In Conan's opinion, the probability of Boss Qian and Yimo being wolves was high, and it wasn't impossible for both of them to be wolves.

When Yimo was being suspected, Boss Qian had specifically vouched for him.

As for why the real Hunter hadn't revealed themselves, Conan believed it was normal for them to remain hidden at the start of the game to avoid becoming a focal point.

After all, wolves knew who their teammates were, while good people didn't.

During the voting phase, being able to support teammates was an inherent advantage for wolves.

"Everyone, this Cupid Thief Werewolf game mode is a bit complex."

"It's only the first day. Since Siba Jungler has come out as the Hunter, the other divine roles should all stay hidden and not reveal their identities."

"Especially the Prophet, who can learn if a player is good or a wolf each day. Wolves will choose to kill the Prophet first."

"If you check a good person tonight, you can privately contact that good person and tell them your identity to prevent the wolves from impersonating the Prophet if you die unexpectedly."

"If you check a wolf, I suggest you hold back for a day. The possibility of being found by wolves among so many people and killed is not high."

"Come out after two nights, and let the good person you've identified lead the way to expose the wolf!"

"The Witch can save a player who was killed at night or poison a player. I don't see anything in the description saying the Witch cannot save themselves."

"I suggest the Witch not be selfish and must use their potion tonight to save someone. After all, in a death game, I don't think wolves would commit suicide to trick a Witch who wouldn't come out to testify for them."

"Cupid can make two players lovers, but they themselves do not belong to a god role or a civilian role. Wolves won't kill them. They can come out and reveal their identity, which can also ensure their safety and reduce the targets for finding wolves."

"As for the Thief, I suggest they also come out and state which two roles they were assigned, which one they chose, and which one they discarded."

"If they don't come out then, I will assume that the Thief did not do a good deed and took a wolf card!"

The Cupid Thief Werewolf game mode had a total of 14 role cards.

Specifically, 3 wolves, 2 little wolves, and 1 wolf king.

4 divine roles: Prophet, Witch, Hunter, and Idiot.

5 civilians, plus the special Cupid and Thief.

But there were only 12 players.

The person who received the Thief card would be randomly assigned two role cards by the system.

They would choose one of the two and become that role.

In other words, the Thief's role and the role that was not chosen would be eliminated from this game.

Exactly 12 players, corresponding to the remaining 12 role cards.

If the Thief took a good alignment role card, they could tell everyone that a certain card was missing from the game, making it easier for everyone to determine who the wolves were.

If they didn't say anything, it meant they were guilty and most likely chose to become a wolf, causing the other good alignment role card to not appear in this game.

And that abandoned role card could be a civilian, or it could be a divine role card!

Conan said a lot. Some of the players present had played Werewolf, while others hadn't, but they all felt what he said made sense and nodded along.

Supreme One also felt it made sense, but then he looked.

It seemed Conan had stolen the spotlight, which would make his current idol, Siba Jungler, lose face!

He immediately became unhappy and blurted out, "Damn, who do you think you are, calling yourself Conan!"

"Do you really think you're that detective kid!"

"My big brother Siba Jungler is the Village Chief now, you have to listen to him!"

Conan heard this, looked at Supreme One, and adjusted his glasses, saying, "Supreme One, your behavior from the start of the game until now has been terrible. You've been acting recklessly under the guise of looking for wolves. Normally, you don't seem like a good person."

"However... based on my game experience, unless these actions were deliberately staged, you should be a good person, and most likely a civilian."

In short, a normally sane wolf wouldn't do something so idiotic!

But Supreme One didn't understand the deeper meaning of this. He was stunned, touched his yellow hair, and his expression towards Conan changed. After thinking for a moment, he turned to Yimo and said, "Big brother, I think this kid has a point. What do you think, should we consider it?"

To be honest, although Supreme One was a bit of a sycophant, his fawning and fickle nature was also quite amusing.

Yimo looked at him. He actually didn't think Supreme One was a wolf, but seeing him stick his head out and fawn over him, he felt an urge to slap him.

Unfortunately, it was daytime and not the trial phase, so he couldn't attack anyone else.

Yimo didn't have much experience fighting and wouldn't actually make a move.

Yimo waved his hand, telling Supreme One not to block his path, then walked over to Conan and looked at him, saying, "I also think what you said makes a lot of sense."

"But since you're an experienced player, you should know."

"Werewolves like to kill the strong players first."

"If you reveal yourself, aren't you afraid of being targeted by the werewolves?"

This was what Yimo wanted to know.

What about Conan?

Looking at Yimo, he said in a whisper only the two of them could hear, "I don't want to be inexplicably voted out, especially when there's a high probability that a veteran player, a werewolf impersonating a Hunter, becomes the Village Chief."

After Conan finished speaking, he didn't give Yimo a chance to reply. He suddenly turned and said to everyone, "Hahaha, actually, I've just played more games and accumulated some experience."

"But in reality, I lose more often than I win, so don't rely on me too much. You should still listen to Siba Jungler, this Hunter Village Chief."

"Oh, right, I'm a Villager, not a Werewolf, and definitely not a God card. If I were a God card, I would hide low-key and wouldn't come out."

Yimo watched Conan, who was acting cheerful and seemingly naive.

He knew that Conan's words were purely meant for the werewolves.

To tell the werewolves that he wasn't particularly strong, nor was he a God card, and to tell them not to kill him at night!

And during the day, because his words were good, it would be difficult to suspect him of being a werewolf and voting him out!

He was protecting himself!

However, Yimo sneered inwardly.

He was being too clever.

So he wouldn't live long.

Yimo felt that he had introduced everyone sufficiently, so he said to the other players, "Everyone, there are 12 people in this game, and 3 of them are werewolves."

"To reduce the chances of werewolves communicating privately, let's split into groups of 4, forming 3 groups. We'll be together most of the time, monitoring each other!"

"I'll assign the groups..."

Just as Yimo was halfway through speaking, Dieyu walked over, tiptoed, patted Yimo's shoulder, and said with a smile, blinking her eyes cutely, "Mr. Siba Jungler, I haven't introduced myself yet."

"Let me introduce myself too, so everyone can get to know me?"

It had to be said that from the beginning of the game, Dieyu had attracted everyone's attention because of her beauty.

However, perhaps appearance really had a significant effect, as no one actively made things difficult for her.

Her walking out boldly at this moment made other players believe she was likely a good person.

They also really wanted to hear her self-introduction.

But Yimo?

Upon hearing this, he snapped his fingers and looked at her playfully, "We'll introduce ourselves privately later, be good~"

Although Yimo's voice was low and hoarse, it carried a hint of excitement at this moment, which completely stunned Dieyu.

But she reacted quickly, putting on an innocent expression, a blush rising on her cheeks. She tilted her head, blinked her eyes, her expression seeming to say, "This isn't good, is it?"

Yimo paid no attention to this, ignoring Dieyu's expression, and began to group everyone.

As for the others, their gaze towards Yimo worsened compared to before.

A normal-looking female Village Chief glanced at him and said, "Tch, scum!"
