848: New weird talk rules, lie detection begins

This situation, in Mo De's opinion, was actually quite reasonable.

After all, he had seen the scene of a person chosen to come here before they died last night.

In the end, that A Man died at Hong Lei's daughter's hands!

Before this, Mo De was also more inclined towards the argument that Hong Lei's daughter was not human.

The photograph in his hand confirmed his idea.

At the same time, a line of pitch-black text appeared again in Mo De's eyes.

[You have found a key item, triggering hidden Weird Tales Rule A]

[5. Your Lin Yue's wife is your family, but after 12 o'clock at night, your Lin Yue's wife will be very terrifying. Please pay attention to the passage of time!]

[6. The bone-chopping knife made by Old Tang Na is the murder weapon used to dismember Bosen, but please do not investigate the whereabouts of the bone-chopping knife in depth. The person who uses it is very sensitive.]

This photograph, found unexpectedly, not only provided Mo De with the key information that Hong Lei's daughter was not human but also activated two Weird Tales Rules!

Weird Tales Rules are a mix of truth and falsehood, but one thing is certain.

In every Weird Tales Rule that appears, at least one is correct!

Otherwise.

This Tales of the Weird world would be too easy to mislead people into stepping into the abyss.

Among rules 5 and 6 in Weird Tales Rule Group A, one must be true.

It is also possible that both are true.

Mo De secretly kept this information in mind.

"Ding~ Congratulations Host, you have found a key item and obtained a lie detection opportunity." Ye Tian spoke out to remind the Host after the pitch-black text of the Weird Tales Rules disappeared.

Weird Tales Rules, this is actually the confrontation between the Host's Original World and the Tales of the Weird world.

The true information is provided by the Original World, while the false information is designed by the rule-based Tales of the Weird world.

It is precisely because of the conflict between these two high-level planes that such a mix of true and false Weird Tales Rules is born.

"After finding a key item, there's an extra reward of a lie detection opportunity?" When Mo De heard this, he felt as if he, who was originally unarmed, suddenly had a solid shield!

This sense of security was much stronger than the handgun on his waist!

...

"Missing family again?" Corey, chewing on a hot dog, appeared at the office door.

At this time, he had already changed into a Police uniform, and his demeanor had changed significantly.

Hearing the other party's words, Mo De calmly put the photograph in his hand back to its original place.

It seemed his original self also often looked at this photograph, even Corey knew about it.

"Here." Corey casually handed another hot dog to Mo De. During this process, his gaze suddenly noticed the sandwich in front of Mo De's desk: "Why did you bring a sandwich? Don't you hate this stuff the most?"

Corey asked strangely.

"Hate sandwiches the most?" Mo De's expression remained unchanged, but his heart tightened.

His Lin Yue's wife at home said he liked eating sandwiches the most, but this colleague said he hated sandwiches the most.

Among them, who told a lie?

If his Lin Yue's wife was his family, there would be no reason for her to lie to him.

But Corey, who was his colleague, normally speaking, also had no reason to lie to him. After all, it was just a casual remark.

"System, help me detect if there is a lie in Rule 6 of Weird Tales Rule Group B!"

[6. You hate eating sandwiches. If you eat them, something very terrifying will happen!]

Using the System's lie detection on this point was actually a bit of a waste.

Relatively speaking, the information brought by determining the truth or falsehood of other rules would be more valuable!

However.

There was no other way.

After all, the sandwich was right in front of him. When he left home, his Lin Yue's wife had already told him that he must finish the sandwich!

This was a hurdle he had to face right now!

He had also considered using lie detection on the first rule of Weird Tales Rule Group B [1. You are kind to your family, so you should agree to any request your family makes during the day, otherwise, very bad consequences will occur.]

If this rule was wrong, he wouldn't have to eat the sandwich at all, and could even directly refuse Hong Lei's daughter's request to come to his room at night. He could say he was safe for today.

But what if... this was true?

He would know he had to eat the sandwich.

But this point seriously conflicted with Rule 6!

Therefore, he could only treat the rule that he must satisfy any request made by his family as true. Mo De wanted to know the truth or falsehood of Rule 6 to obtain information that could break the situation.

Ye Tian didn't make him wait long.

Soon, there was a reply.

"Ding~ The System has detected Weird Tales Rule Group B [6. You hate eating sandwiches. If you eat them, something very terrifying will happen!] for the Host."

"After detection, the rule is correct, but incomplete."

"The System is starting to supplement Rule 6 of the Weird Tales Rule."

After a few notification sounds fell, lines of text corrected the pitch-black rule text.

[6. You are afraid of eating sandwiches. If you eat a sandwich, please do not look behind you again. You must run 3000 meters at a sprinting speed, then quickly drink 1 liter of white wine, and find an independent room to sleep with your eyes closed. No matter what sound you hear, do not open your eyes, otherwise, something very terrifying will happen!]

The rule modified by the System had many more words.

And these additions made Mo De's heart tighten even more.

When he looked at the sandwich on the table again, his Adam's apple couldn't help but bob.

If he ate this sandwich, would something chase him from behind?

Looking at it this way, if he really had to eat this thing, something would definitely go wrong under normal circumstances.

Fortunately, the System here gave him a solution.

Even if he ate the sandwich, there was a way to deal with it.

Although this method also seemed a bit like claiming a life.

Sprinting 3000 meters aside, pouring 1 liter of white wine into his stomach, what kind of concept was this?

This was probably two catties of white wine. 99% of people could brag about doing it, but in reality, 99.9% of people absolutely could not do it!

For him, someone who didn't touch a drop of alcohol, this would definitely lead to alcohol poisoning!

Moreover, it was drinking immediately after finishing a long run...

For a moment, looking at the sandwich on the table, Mo De already had a headache.

He didn't pay attention to it for the time being.

He could foresee that he would definitely have to go through this method of breaking the situation that the System had hinted at.

And after those actions were completed, he basically wouldn't be able to do anything else today.

It was better to collect more information while there was still time.

Opening some of the drawers below, Mo De saw some well-organized materials that were clearly more confidential than those on the table.

What made Mo De frown was that these materials were still related to the dismemberment case.

"Captain, you've already organized so much material on the dismemberment case?"

Corey's surprised voice came out.

Mo De heard this and looked at the other party in surprise.

This guy... didn't know that he had organized these materials?

There were only two Police officers in the Town, him and Corey. That meant all of these were materials that his previous self had organized?

Completing these alone ruled out putting on a show.

This fully indicated that his previous self was extremely eager to find the murderer!

According to the first rule in Weird Tales Rule Group A.

The statement that he was the murderer clearly had a big loophole.

How could a murderer rack his brains to find another non-existent murderer?

Even if it was to clear his own suspicion, it would be more about putting on a show on the surface, letting everyone see his efforts to clear his suspicion.

How could he quietly collect and organize case materials by himself?
