  Chapter 25 Digging the Grave

   "Reason?" Xu Huo was not in a hurry to deny his words.

"I have read all the reports and investigations about the beheaded demon. The beheaded demon's technique is very sophisticated. Most of the people were killed with one blow. There was no wound except the neck. The man who attacked me yesterday was very panicked. I didn’t even pick the right time to strike.”

  Huang Junjie seemed very confident, "In most murder cases, the deceased died quietly until they were discovered."

   "There are still a small number of cases. The deceased's limbs are incomplete and there was a fierce fight before his death. This does not match what you said." Xu Huo asked after listening.

   "Imitation crimes." Huang Junjie said firmly: "There are too few such cases."

   "If what you said is true, why did he choose you as the first one?" Xu Huo said again: "I think Du Lanlan's side is easier to attack."

  Huang Junjie looked regretful, "I shouldn't have confronted Wan Zhikang yesterday."

  If a player wants to kill other players with the identity of a beheader, the easiest way to succeed is a female player or a white player, but there is one exception, that is, this person must die first.

   It was precisely because he showed his skills that he was targeted.

   "If the person who attacked me is fooled by the diary, the target tonight will be between you, me and Xia Guo." Huang Junjie issued an invitation, "Why don't we join forces and catch him!"

  Xu Huo bit his cigarette, "According to what you said, there is still a beheaded demon in the villa. Maybe he will also kill people tonight."

   "Look who is out of luck." Huang Junjie shook his head.

  The three of them were talking, and continued to march towards the wooden house.

   "I went to the wooden house, one is to attract the person who attacked me, and the other is to keep a distance from other players. If no one is caught, the identity of the person can be deduced from other people."

   After finishing speaking, Huang Junjie asked again: "What are you doing in the wooden house?"

  Yuan Yao shook his head and looked at Xu Huo.

  Xu Huo stopped and pointed his chin at the man who had hung a rope and stood on the pile of firewood, "I'll see if he hanged himself."

Huang Junjie and Yuan Yao's expressions changed, and they immediately went to stop them, but Xu Huo stopped them, "He's going to hang himself at night, maybe he's possessed by a ghost, what should you do if you go over and find your substitute instead? You're not The NPC in the villa will not be resurrected after death."

  That's right.

  The three of them didn't get close to the woodcutter, but walked around to the front of him. Xu Huo stood on the tree stump and raised his hand to greet him, "Hey, he hanged himself."

  The woodcutter's eyes trembled, his neck stretched forward, and he hung on the tree.

  Xu Huo just looked at it like this, until he hung his hands and feet and said: "You take him down, it's getting dark, I'll go to the wooden house to see if there are any lighting tools."

   After a while, candles were lit in the cabin, and the woodcutter's body was placed back on the bed.

   Huang Junjie looked at the bright lights on the other side of the villa, and said to himself: "It's not yet time..."

  Behind him, after Xu Huo checked the woodcutter's body over and over again, he took a hemp rope from the cabinet to trap him into one, and held a shovel in his hand.

   "Brother Xu, Brother Xu, what are you doing?" Yuan Yao stared at the woodcutter's pants that Xu Huo had pulled down but not fully pulled up, his voice trembling a little.

   "I'm going out to dig a hole." Xu Huo turned the shovel, his eyes still on the woodcutter, "Try to see if he can be resurrected after being buried in the soil."

  Yuan Yao's smile was particularly forced, and Huang Junjie also had a complicated expression on his face. He didn't understand why Xu Huo wanted to make trouble with an NPC.

  Xu Huozhen went outside to dig a hole, and dug up the new grave by the way.

  The corpse of the old woman who was claimed to be her daughter by the woodcutter was just thrown in the soil, not even wrapped in a cloth, with a hemp rope mark on her neck, she was strangled to death.

  Turn the female corpse over, there is a string of white serial numbers on the undecomposed back.

  The grave was built again, and he dug two graves next to it. One of the two corpses had no head, and the other was also strangled to death. One was a man-eating player and the other was a black player.

   "There are quite a few people killed." Xu Huo didn't bury the people back, threw away the shovel, sat down on the spot, and stared at the villa while smoking.

  The pattering fog continued to fall, and the lights of the villa became hazy and dim, but they were quite conspicuous in the night, so when the lights suddenly went out, all three people on the wooden house noticed.

  As soon as Xu Huo came out of the cemetery, he heard a shrill scream.

   "Something happened over there!" Huang Junjie rushed out, "I'll go over and have a look."

   "Yuan Yao is going with you." Xu Huo didn't move, "I'll stay here."

  Huang Junjie glanced at him suspiciously, but hurried away without asking any further questions.

   "Brother Xu, why don't I stay here with you?" Yuan Yao said hastily. He heard that someone must be dead in the villa. He didn't want to face the beheaded demon or the player pretending to be the beheaded demon.

  Xu Huo looked at him coldly.

  Yuan Yao swallowed his saliva, turned around and chased Huang Junjie without saying a word.

After confirming that he was gone, Xu Huo entered the wooden house, stepped on the edge of the bed and took down the mobile phone placed on the beam, turned off the video recording, and opened the video recorded before. After watching it, he suddenly laughed. Said: "Don't pretend, I know you are alive."

   The "corpse" does not move.

Xu Huo put the phone in his pocket, pulled the woodcutter by the back collar and dragged it out, "I said before, the dead will be buried, and the pit will be dug for you. Since you don't want to wake up, I will do good deeds in advance, so that you can die." You are buried in peace."

   Throwing the "corpse" into the pit without mercy, it was the same pit where the corpse was buried before, Xu Huo picked up the shovel and filled it with soil.

  As soon as the smelly mud covered his face, the "corpse" finally moved. He opened his eyes in a daze, looked at the surrounding situation first, and then looked at his own situation, and immediately shouted: "Come on, help, you killed someone!"

   "Stop barking." Xu Huo stuffed grass roots and soil into his mouth, "It's not like you don't know that everyone is in the villa, and no one will come to rescue you."

   "It happens to be time, let's talk about another thing."

   "Are you a beheaded demon?"

  The firewood splitter seemed to have heard some joke, with a sarcastic expression on his face, but Xu Huo's next words made his expression change drastically.

   "It's not a beheaded demon, it's just a player who stayed in the last game."

   "Playing the trick of hanging yourself in front of the players is to let others regard you as a part of the villa."

"The people killed by you have different degrees of decay. You have met at least three groups of players here, but the number of new graves is obviously not enough. I guess the players killed by you have not been cleaned up in the game, so you have to bury them in the grave. here."

   "The villa is so big, it's better to be seen openly and aboveboard than to bury it secretly and be noticed and not deal with the aftermath."

   "However, there was a fire in the villa a few years ago, and it was closed for half a year for renovation. Even the wooden house was built later. It is shameful for you to say that you have been living here."

   "And your daughter, how old can you add to be your aunt? Didn't you think that someone would dig it open when you buried her?"

  Pull out the grass, Xu Huo motioned for him to speak.
