He Had No Morals

Before Yu Xing even utter a complaint, a loud bang suddenly came from outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, the toilet door shook violently, and a sharp axe blade slashed down from the outside, once, twice...

The red light from the corridor shone through the broken walls, and at the same time, it also reflected a distorted sheep's face.

The still-bound clones let out a series of whimpers.

They're scared too!

They are merely copies of the deducer, dependent on the unique formation mechanism of the barbecue restaurant, but they have absolutely nothing to do with Zhang Xiaowei —if he's not careful, they might even be killed by Zhang Xiaowei.

They can't even use the offerings; in some ways, they're even more fragile than the diviners!

Qu Xuanqing's clone took a few steps back and pulled out his own kitchen knife.

Qu Xuanqing his lip and said, "Can we kill this foreman now?"

"Wait, let me think about how to do the normal deduction..." Yu Xing lifted the Little Heavenly Master up and approached the increasingly riddled door, meeting the gaze of the Sheep-faced leader.

The Sheep-faced leader slowly revealed a sinister smile, raising his axe high—

The next second, thick branches descended from another dimension, forming an airtight net in front of him, trapping him firmly inside.

"Damn it!" the foreman roared from inside, his deep voice cracking with rage. "I'm going to kill you all!"

Ignoring everything else, Yu Xing simply opened the already rickety door and glanced back at the "hostage" on the ground.

Most of these are copies, but we can't ignore them.

If any clone dies, the entire simulation resets, which is incredibly annoying.

"Go to the lobby, pretend to be a customer, pay and order," Yu Xing said. "Chef Zhang Xiaowei is driven by his obsession with dismembering others and himself; the corpse in the freezer represents the victim and his morbid obsession; and the head waiter Zhang Xiaowei is likely a combination of his father and his father's killer."

So this supervisor is the one who chased down the deducer with an axe, and also the one who taught all employees to smile at the diners.

Aside from the overwhelming and violent push, players who normally enter this unique instance can simply pretend to be customers when being chased by the Sheep-faced leader.

This rule only applies to the lobby.

Because the supervisor also needs to project a sunny and friendly image in front of other customers, giving them a pleasant and welcoming service experience.

He was mainly speaking to Qu Xuanqing, and the Little Heavenly Master could understand him, but the others were not so willing to cooperate. For the clones, both sides were enemies, and they were constantly weighing the pros and cons.

Qu Xuanqing nodded, glanced at his clone, and with a wave of his hand, a blood-red sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.

Clearly, she was about to make her move.

In this situation, there's no need to keep this copy, even if the other party is very nice.

Chef Qu Xuanqing coldly glanced back at the person in question, a hint of mockery in his eyes, as if he were mocking his own short "life."

Instead of retreating, she advanced, offering her neck to Qu Xuanqing's sword.

"Go ahead and do it. If I were the real person, I wouldn't allow something with the same memories as me to exist in any corner of the world."

Qu Xuanqing narrowed her eyes and thrust the sword down without hesitation, but at that moment, a fruit knife gleaming with cold light also came towards her temple from a tricky angle!

She narrowly dodged by tilting her head, a strand of her hair being cut off, but there was no surprise in her eyes. With a backhand flick of her blood sword, she sent the clone's head flying.

The headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud, Qu Xuanqing didn't look at it again.

She knew that if she were the clone, she would also want to make one last desperate attempt to kill the real person and inherit everything herself.

Even if the chances of success are extremely slim, she would never choose to die doing nothing.

Having watched the whole thing unfold, Yu Xing's eyes flickered. She stepped forward, Qu Xuanqing's hair, and pinched her cheek. "Ruthless enough. I like it."

The girl didn't dodge, but gently rubbed her hand against his. "Let's go, I don't want to stay here anymore."

The subsequent simulations accelerated rapidly.

Yu Xing used branches to drag everyone in the toilet to the hall, where the two deducers who remained killed their clones.

The male candidate couldn't resist eating meat. His hand was pinned to the table with a dagger by the assassin, and the scene was bloody. But when he heard that everything would be fine if he killed the clone, he went berserk and stabbed his clone many times.

During this time, the other animal-faced diners looked over with shocked and eerie eyes, but when they saw the murder, they numbly turned their heads away.

Just like the guests in Zhang Xiaowei's memory who didn't immediately lend a helping hand to save his father.

Yu Shiqi, upon seeing the crowd, immediately understood what they were about to do.

He looked at Yu Xing with calm eyes, even managing a smile, "Before, it was always—no, all I remember was suicide. I never thought I'd experience being completely killed before you."

Yu Xing also smiled, "Then you're really lucky."

"Yes, I'm the lucky Yu Xing." Yu Shiqi smiled. "You're the unlucky one."

The power of the curse seeped into Yu Shiqi's body, destroying everything he had.

When he died, there were no visible wounds on his body; it was as if he were simply asleep.

Looking at "his own corpse," Yu Xing murmured thoughtfully, "It's not necessarily because you're lucky. Maybe in the future..."

"You'd want to kill me, wouldn't you?" He swallowed the second half of his sentence, and even Qu Xuanqing was right next to him, had no idea what he was thinking.

The other seats at the table were occupied by Little Heavenly Master, as well as replicas of Xiao Duo, Wang Shufen, and Gao Lou.

They won; this is the position they deserve.

The three clones, who thought they were doomed, were utterly despondent when they were unexpectedly untied and the gag was removed.

They were both surprised and wary. The replica of Gaolou stared at Yu Xing with an extremely distrustful look. "You're really letting us live?"

You see, once they survive this simulation, they inherit everything about that identity and become ghosts in human skin... or rather, humans, appearing in the original living environment of that identity.

The parents, wife, and children of this person will never know that the person has changed, and that the one living in the shell of the person they love is the murderer.

They thought that such behavior would be nipped in the bud by Yu Xing, after all, humans always followed moral principles that ghosts disdained.

Yu Xing merely glanced at the indignant Little Heavenly Master out of the corner of her eye and casually replied, "What you do is none of my business. It's all about skill."

He is not a moral exemplar, or rather, he has no morals at all.

But...

The Luo family, where the Little Heavenly Master lives, seems to have inherited the old-school way of spiritualists, taking the creation of talismans and the capture of ghosts as their own responsibility.

Whether the Little Heavenly Master will act on behalf of Heaven after he leaves—that's beyond Yu Xing's control, isn't it?

Watching the three jubilant clones and the Little Heavenly Master secretly rolling his eyes, Yu Xing quietly removed the branches that were trapping the Sheep-faced leader. (End of Chapter)
