Chapter 64: DiDi-Style Subbing? Wolves' Brilliant Speech (Please Follow)

"My first police badge flow investigates Number 5, Big Brother Jiuqian. This guy pointed out that I looked suspicious right from his opening speech, and he also thought Number 10 might counter-claim against me, though it wasn't quite clear why. So, I'm just going to check him."

"As for why my second police badge flow is Number 11, that's just a random touch with no real train of thought. Hopefully, Number 11, if you are a good guy, you'll cast your vote for me."

"There's nothing else. Number 7 is the innocent-guilty-result I drew, and I won't spend the first day analyzing whether he is the Voyeur. If he is the Voyeur, naturally he will have his own plays. I'll just treat him as a genuine innocent-guilty-result in my later position who can help summarize things for me. Once I get the police badge, Number 7 can also help lead the team for me. Pass."

Number 6 Xia Bobo's speech was not overly lengthy.

After all, she wasn't really the Seer, and her jumping out here was just to let Wang Changsheng find her.

If Wang Changsheng were a wolf, he might weigh whether or not to directly have the wolf pack arrange for her to claim.

But if Number 7 was a good guy, naturally there was no need for her to forcibly wear the Seer's clothes.

Therefore, giving a standard, middle-of-the-road Seer speech was already sufficient.

What she needed to focus on listening to right now was Wang Changsheng's speech.

[Player Number 7, please begin your speech.]

Wang Changsheng paused.

He knew Number 6's identity.

He also knew that she had voyeuristic visions of him the previous night.

And since he himself was the Seer—though he had drawn a guilty result on the first day, the strength of the wolf pack should not be underestimated. If he wanted to make other good guys acknowledge him through his speech, a proxy claim seemed like a pretty good choice...

After thinking it over carefully.

Wang Changsheng still decided to take a gamble.

There was no help for it; his previous speaker was the Voyeur, and he was the Seer.

With such favorable timing and terrain, it would truly be a pity not to play a coordinated move.

"Player Number 7 speaking. I think Number 6 looks like the Seer, not just because she gave me an innocent result, but because my read on her doesn't look like a wolf. So she is either the Seer or the Voyeur."

"However, Number 6 has a clear demand for the police badge, so I don't really think she can hold a Voyeur card. Therefore, from my perspective, Number 6 directly giving me the innocent result makes me feel her Seer probability is very high."

"In an earlier position, Number 6 wanted to check Number 5. How should I put this? He was the first to stand up and speak about why I was watching him, but if you weren't watching me, how would you know I was watching you?"

"Of course, I don't mean to attack you, Number 5. Your opening speech was clearly searching for wolves, so I think Number 6 doesn't really need to waste a check on this Number 5. I think he looks like a good guy card."

Wang Changsheng smiled, signaling Number 6 not to focus her attention on Number 5.

"You want me to carry you to victory—that is somewhat exaggerating. I am only a rookie player after all. I fully understand your desire to win, and I am willing to do my best to contribute to our good faction. But even though you checked me as innocent, you can't just lie down and relax, because after all, you are the Seer."

"And when I flipped my role, I really did read Number 5 as unlike a wolf card. Instead, it was Number 4 sitting right next to him who gave me a bad feeling; when he took off his helmet, his expression was a bit strange and unnatural."

"So I think compared to Number 5, Number 6, you should listen more to the speech of this Number 4. I think he is a wolf."

"Aside from that, Number 8 and Number 12 seem to have special roles, and you can pay more attention to them. As for Number 5, I consider him a good guy card. I think Number 10 might counter-claim, so let's just listen to see. If Number 10 counter-claims, I definitely won't believe him, and I will directly dead-side with Number 6."

"I think Number 5 is a good guy, Number 4 looks like a wolf, and Numbers 8 and 12 have special roles. Of course, this isn't your voting round yet, and if Number 10 counter-claims, I will side with Number 6. If Number 10 doesn't counter-claim, but Numbers 8 and 12 counter-claim instead, I will still choose to side with Number 6. Even though I read those two cards as having special roles, they are definitely not the Seer. If external cards counter-claim, I will solely listen to the two Seers' speeches to choose my side."

"Once Number 6 gets the police badge this round, during the vote below the police line today, I might raise my hand to vote for Number 4. After voting him out, Numbers 8 and 12 can claim their roles then."

"Pass."

In fact, within the perspectives of both Number 6 and Number 7, both sides had already made their intentions very clear to each other.

After Wang Changsheng's voice fell silent, Number 6 rested her chin on her right hand with a thoughtful expression.

[Player Number 8, please begin your speech.]

Number 8 Changgui, hailing from the Team of Ten Thousand Demons.

He looked rather gloomy, different from Crow's unshakeable composure. This person looked shrewd at a glance.

He glanced at Numbers 6 and 7, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Number 6 is a guilty result. My first police badge flow opens on Number 7, and the second opens on Number 11."

Number 8 Changgui chose to claim right on the spot.

Both Number 5 and Number 7 in the preceding positions had pointed out Number 10, and the formation they played during the night was indeed intended to have Number 10 claim.

But sitting at the Werewolf game table, the situation is always shifting constantly.

Clearly, if they still made Number 10 stand up and dry-claim now, the good guys in external positions would probably find it very hard to side with the wolf pack.

Coupled with the dialogue between Numbers 6 and 7, it made him feel somewhat strange.

Could this bowl of innocent-guilty-result have been handed out so quickly?

Was the Seer really that easy to distinguish?

Could these two fellows be doing a proxy claim?

Based on various reasons.

Number 8 decided that he would be the one to claim.

At worst, he would just claim first and talk.

The worst that could happen is he would retract his claim later.

Anyway, this was a Voyeur setup.

Coming up to stir up the situation was the right move.

At this moment, everyone on the field had different thoughts in their minds.

All gazes flickered between Numbers 6, 7, and 8.

First, from the perspective of the good faction.

Number 6 claimed Seer, and Number 8 issued a guilty result on Number 6.

Number 6 must either be the Seer, the Voyeur, or a werewolf.

Meanwhile, Number 8 must either be a werewolf or the Seer.

Since Number 6 gave an innocent result, if she were the Voyeur, she might stand up and claim Seer, giving her voyeuristic target an innocent result.

Then, for Number 8 to issue a guilty result makes it almost impossible for him to be the Voyeur.

Therefore, if Number 8 is the Seer, then Number 6 is a wolf.

If Number 8 is a wolf, Number 6 is either the Seer or the Voyeur. It's very difficult for Numbers 8 and 6 to form a wolf-stepping-on-wolf dynamic.

After all, Number 7, who received Number 6's innocent result, had already resolutely sided with Number 6 in the preceding position.

Therefore, if Number 6 is a wolf, Number 7 must also be a wolf.

In other words.

Either Numbers 6 and 7 are both good guys, or they are both werewolves at the same time.

Number 8 Changgui continued to speak: "Number 6 is my guilty-result card, and she gave Number 7 an innocent result, prompting Number 7 to immediately go all-in. Therefore, in my eyes, Number 7 is most likely Number 6's scumbag partner."

"Furthermore, Number 7 thinks that Numbers 8, 10, and 12 claiming Seer cannot be trusted, leaving only Numbers 1 and 3 for him to possibly listen to. In that case, you might as well just bluntly say that you are dead-siding with Number 6."

"Also, Number 6 threw her innocent result towards a later position. Even though in the finals everyone's reading abilities are first-rate, I don't believe she wasn't the least bit afraid of accidentally hitting the real Seer."

"Therefore, regardless of whether Number 7 is Number 6's scumbag partner, I believe there are fewer wolves in the later positions. Number 6 specifically pointed out Number 11 below the police line, claiming it was purely to secure votes, but why did you ignore the other cards below the police line?"

"So my first police badge flow opens on this Number 7 to determine whether he is indeed Number 6's scumbag accomplice, and the second police badge flow opens on this Number 11."

"Number 5 in the preceding position leans towards being a slightly above-average card, but Number 7 protected Number 5, and both of them pointed out Number 10. Therefore, in a moment, I will heavily focus on listening to Player Number 10's speech to determine Number 5's identity."

"One more thing, I want to address you, Number 4 card. Number 6, the fake-claiming Seer, gave Number 7 an innocent result, and Number 7 labeled you as a definite wolf. Regardless of whether Number 7 is a wolf or a good guy today, and regardless of whether you are a wolf or a good guy, you are supposed to side with me. Give me your police badge vote, and today we will vote this Number 6 card out of the sky with a full consensus. If you, Number 4, dare to change your vote, the Witch can choose to send you a bottle of poison tonight—you're either a wolf or a wolf-minion."

"I am the Seer, and Number 10 below the police line is my second police badge flow. I'll see who you vote for in a moment. Additionally, the other cards below the police line, please cast your votes for me. Pass."

Number 8 Changgui's speech was forceful and full of substance.

In fact, from his perspective.

The Voyeur was very likely to be Number 6.

And Number 7 was either acting as the Seer doing a proxy claim with Number 6, or Number 7 was the Voyeur who had voyeurized the real Seer Number 6.

Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have recognized each other so quickly.

Making it look like they were the two wolves instead.

But of course, he couldn't tell the good guys that Number 6 was the Voyeur and Number 7 might be the Seer.

Then what would that make him?

And the reverse was equally true.

[Player Number 10, please begin your speech.]

Number 10 Qiming (Morning Star) remained silent for a moment.

He was a rookie member hailing from the Universe Team.

In the previous game where he drew the Witch, he had been extremely grateful that Number 7 was able to shield him with the night guard.

Yet in this game, he was a wolf.

Listening to Wang Changsheng's speech just now, he deeply felt the other person's terrifying prowess.

Calling Number 4 a definite wolf.

Refusing to recognize Numbers 8, 10, and 12 as potential Seers.

This kind of reading ability.

Simply terrifying to the extreme!

He had no idea how Wang Changsheng had trained to reach this level.

He actually felt a bit like asking him for advice...

Clearly, he was just someone who had debuted not long ago.

Yet now, he had transformed from a substitute into an ace player whose rank exceeded his own.

This sense of oppression came rushing right at his face.

"I really don't want to be on opposing factions with Number 7..." Number 10 Qiming sighed inwardly.

However, the facts were already set.

He had no choice either, and could only do his utmost.

Organizing his words.

Number 10 directly chose to hook (betray his wolf team by joining the good faction's side).

"Between the two Seers, I might lean more towards trusting Player Number 6 a bit more. I really find it hard to accept Number 8's police badge flow."

"Number 7 has already chosen to side with Number 6 in the preceding position, so how could your first police badge flow still land on him? If you ask me, checking Number 4 would be better than checking Number 7."

"Why did Number 7 dare to side with his chosen Seer Number 6, and even directly strike at a Number 4 card hiding below the police line?"

"You just said yourself that the later positions on the police line are likely to have fewer wolves, meaning you think there are probably two or more werewolf cards below the police line. Then is it possible that Number 4 is the wolf teammate of Numbers 6 and 7, and Number 7 attacking Number 4 as a definite wolf is actually signaling his own wolf teammate to come hook onto you?"

"You didn't consider this point, or perhaps you did consider it, but you wanted Number 4's vote, so you chose not to deal with Number 4 today. If that's the case, then your Seer persona still has a shred of credibility."

Number 10 Qiming spoke in a steady tone.

His arms rested naturally on the table, his fingers tapping rhythmically against the wood.

"Based on the fact that you've gained some Seer credibility, let's talk about the problems with Player Number 6."

"First of all, since Number 7 is her innocent result, if Numbers 4, 6, and 7 do not form a three-wolf structure, why would Number 7 dare to directly attack and call out Number 4 hiding below the police line? Does he really not care about helping his Seer secure the police badge?"

"This is very strange. If we only look at this point, by comparison, Number 8 actually gains some Seer credibility instead, because he has a strong desire for the police badge."

"Therefore, Numbers 6 and 7 must belong to the same faction. But if Number 7 is a wolf, then Number 6 could still potentially be a Voyeur card—she chose to voyeurize Number 7 during the night, and Number 7, upon hearing Number 6, a non-wolf-pack member, give him an innocent result, thought it over and ultimately chose to believe that Number 6 was a good guy trying to prevent them from getting outed, so he didn't claim, and instead turned to point out Number 4, his wolf teammate, to go hook."

"If Number 7 is a wolf, that's the only possible explanation, because Number 6's perspective doesn't seem very open; indeed, she doesn't look like she's in the wolf pack. And precisely because of this, compared to Number 8, I think Number 6 looks more like the Seer."

"Sigh, talking it down like this, it's really a bit hard to distinguish when siding. I might lean softly towards siding with Player Number 6, because listening to Number 8 doesn't sound quite right either—unless someone else in a later position is going to claim, in which case I might seriously consider that Number 7 is a wolf, Number 6 is the Voyeur, and Number 8 is a wolf who stood up trying to flush out the Voyeur with a guilty result."

"After all, if Numbers 7 and 8 belong to the same faction, then the claiming Number 6 is even more likely to be that Voyeur. That way, Number 4 isn't in the wolf pack after all; because choosing to side with Number 6 means Number 6 will listen to Number 7's arrangement to vote for Number 4, while choosing to side with Number 8 will also cause the Voyeur Number 6 to be voted out. No matter what, the wolf pack doesn't lose."

"I can probably only deduce this much from this position. I hope there are only these two people counter-claiming, otherwise the amount of mental calculation is just too much. It's relatively easier to distinguish with just Numbers 6 and 8 counter-claiming, and I also hope I haven't chosen the wrong side. Pass."

Number 10 Qiming finally let out a deep sigh.

He talked as if it were all the absolute truth.

If Wang Changsheng hadn't seen him taking off his helmet during the night.

Just based on this speech and this acting.

He might have actually wanted to believe this fellow was a good guy.

Number 10 Qiming's speech.

Seemed like he didn't want anyone else in the later positions to counter-claim.

In reality, however, he was passing a message to his wolf teammates.

*Hurry up and claim to drag Number 8 out for me!*
