Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Vote as Required
“Don’t listen to him!” The short-haired girl stood firm, talking to herpanion about to vote. “Stick to the original n! He’s just afraid we’ll vote him out!”
Red Eyes hesitated between options.
“What a pity…” Xu Fanghe sighed softly, looking at them with regret. “It seems, to prevent further conflict, I have to rely on the Heavenly Punishment…”
At the mention of the words “Heavenly Punishment”, everyone’s faces changed! They were reminded of those moths just earlier!
Nobody wanted to die that way!
Even turning into a doll would be better than being hollowed out by a swarm of bugs!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Red Eyes looked very hesitant, obviously vaciting.
All that Bai Youwei could think of at this moment was: despicable.
— Using an advantage that others didn’t have to control the votes in the game, such behavior was truly despicable.
Although she had done simr things before, bearing the feeling of being manipted now that the roles had switched was really ufortable.<div>
Xu Fanghe looked at the four Red Eyes who had not yet voted, and said rxedly:
“We could have coexisted peacefully. The game only requires us to vote, not to fight to the death, so why bother?… Let’s put an end to all of this. Battles will only lead to hurt. I’m saying this for the good of everyone…”
“He’s deceiving you!” The short-haired girl red viciously at Xu Fanghe. “Stick to the original n! As long as we eliminate him, we can definitely win!”
“…Win?” Xu Fanghe slowly smiled. “Is winning so important? If so, think about it yourselves… abandon the obsession with victory and defeat, vote with me for No. 25, or stubbornly pursue victory or defeat, facing the Heavenly Punishment at sunrise tomorrow?”
Here, he paused, his gaze slowly sweeping over the four faces of the Red Eyes—
“I… remember your faces.”
His words sent shivers down one’s spine!
“Damn it!” The short-haired girl was about to lose her mind. “Don’t listen to him! Don’t listen to him!!! No matter who you vote for, he won’t know!!!”
“I will know.” Xu Fanghe shook his head, smiling. “Right now, No. 25 has two votes. If, when the Inspector announces the votes, No. 25 doesn’t have six votes, then it means that one of you four certainly didn’t do as I said.”
The short-haired girl questioned herpanions: “Are you really going to do as he says?! He’s just trying to scare you! He…”
“I say…” the sphere on the roof became impatient, “are you voting or not? Can you hurry up?”
Urged on, the Red Eyes lowered their heads and hurried into the voting booth.
One after another, they entered to vote, until everyone had done so.
The stone sphere started spinning again.
As it rumbled, spinning and turning, it announced merrily—
“Now announcing the eliminated votes for the third round!”
“No. 4, 3 votes.”
“No. 5, 2 votes.”
“No. 17, 3 votes.”<div>
“No. 25, 6 votes.”
“No. 28, 4 votes.”
At the announcement of 6 votes for No. 25, Bai Youwei closed her eyes in regret. Her n had beenpletely disrupted.
The yers around her were disappearing one after another.<div>
3 of the Red Eyes disappeared.
2 of the Blue Eyes disappeared.
Yellow Eyes remained intact.
The people left: 5 Red Eyes (including 1 Blue Eye), 6 Yellow Eyes (including 1 Red Eye), 3 Blue Eyes.
But ording to Bai Youwei’s n, thest four votes from the Red Eyes should have been for No. 29! Along with her own vote, the eliminated numbers should have been: 4, 17, 25, 28, 29.
But how could anyone have known that Xu Fanghe was going to stop those four people midway and openly bribe them?
The Inspector was only watching themotion, not intervening at all!
If the votes were continuously controlled by Xu Fanghe, there would be no point in ying the game!
Just as she was bing increasingly frustrated, Xu Fanghe slowly walked up to her, looking down at her from above, squinting his eyes and asking:
“May I ask… why didn’t you follow my request when you voted just now?”
