Chapter 3 - Chapter Three: People with Skills

"Liar..." Qi Xia repeated the three words in his mind several times, confirming his identity. Then, he casually covered the card. Just a minute ago, he had also fantasized about the idea of "everyone leaving alive". But now it was different. Although he didn't know the eight people in front of him, this time, it could only be them who died. "If there are no objections, please remember the rules. This game is called 'There is Only One Liar'." The goat-headed man pointed at the sexy girl to Qi Xia's left. "Then you start, and we'll go clockwise." "Me?" The girl was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said, "Well, I'll go first. But I've never been good at telling stories since I was a child. Please don't be too harsh on me if I don't do well..." At this moment, no one knew what to say and could only listen quietly. The sexy girl stretched out her slender hand, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and said, "My name is Tian Tian. I'm a... well, a 'technical worker'. We earn money with our skills, and I don't feel ashamed of it." At this point, everyone noticed that this girl named Tian Tian was wearing very little, only a dirty, low-cut skirt that didn't cover the important parts. But she didn't seem to care about it. "Many of my stories are not suitable to tell everyone. Anyway, you can call me 'action', but I really don't know how to describe it. After all, if you have some culture, you won't do this job." "Anyway, I was at work before I came here. But the customer I met was really strange... Our store clearly provided a service area, but he insisted on going to his car, saying it would be more exciting... So to make money, I had to go with him..." "This was my first time working in a car. I didn't expect that the seemingly high-end car was so cramped inside. I was sweating all over in no time. I really didn't know what was so 'exciting' about this place. During this time, his phone kept ringing, but he wouldn't answer it. I was really annoyed." It seemed she was about to curse the customer some more, but her eyes accidentally caught the dead body on the table, and she was immediately startled. Then she took a deep breath and said, "Well, forget it. I chose this job, so I accept it. I just didn't expect an 'earthquake' to happen all of a sudden. At first, I thought it was because our movements were too big, so it was shaking so violently. Who knew it was really an earthquake." When she said the word "earthquake", everyone's expressions changed slightly, as if they were reminded of something. "Our car was parked in an alley... Right above was a huge billboard. At that time, my head was sticking out of the car, and I just saw it." Tian Tian pointed at her head and said, her voice trembling. "That huge billboard suddenly broke with a 'bang', and fell right on the car. I lost consciousness..." She took a long breath and said, "When I woke up, I was here. I was really scared to death..." The girl next to her, with flower tattoos, looked at her with a pitiful expression, as if she had practiced it to make men feel sympathetic. The man with the tattooed arms beside her lazily said, "Everyone, do we need to continue?"

Doctor White was stunned, looking at the tattooed man, "What do you mean?" "This 'Miss' has already lied. We can just vote directly," the man with the tattoo said confidently. "You..." ... ! What did you say? !" Tian Tian was startled. "Where did I lie?" The tattooed man gave Tian Tian a cold look and said, "Your name. You said your name is 'Tian Tian', but all the hostesses use pseudonyms. Pseudonyms like 'Qun Tian', 'Xiao Fang', and 'EBE' are very common. So by hiding your real name, you have already lied." 」 After she finished speaking, Tian Tian's face turned red. "You... What are you talking about? My name is Tian Tian! I haven't used my real name for years!" After saying that, she looked around at everyone and added, "At my workplace, only calling me 'Huan Huan' can get me. No one knows my real name!" At this moment, everyone began to think deeply, and Qi Zhi's expression also became serious. From what Tian Tian had just said, Qi Zhi couldn't detect any sign of lying. She described the story smoothly and calmly, her tone gentle. This way of telling the story like chatting with a friend could only prove two things. One was that the story she told was either prepared long ago and she had told it many times; the other was that she was telling the truth. But now, Hua Qingnan provided Qi Zhi with another idea. That was "lying about the name". Lying about the name doesn't involve logic or reasonableness, and it's hard for ordinary people to spot the lie. After all, everyone here had never met before, and names could only be known through the other person's account. Qi Xia carefully recalled what Goat Head had said. He said, "Among all the storytellers, there is only one liar." This rule didn't specify that the liar had to use a "false story" to lie; a "false name" was also applicable. Seeing herself being suspected, Tian Tian's eyes widened and she looked very nervous: "If you still don't believe me, my real name is Zhang Kedeng. I'm from Tiexi. You can call me by my real name to test me. I won't respond if you call me by my real name. I'll only respond to the name 'Jin Jin'..." Hearing this, Qi Xia silently shook his head. This woman wasn't as smart as he had imagined. That is to say, she couldn't have prepared this lie in advance, nor could she have come up with the "name lie" strategy on the spot. Goat Head said, "There is only one liar." So this person could only be Qi Zhi himself. If no one else noticed the seriousness of the "Tian Tian" issue, then he had found a sure way to win. If he wanted to fabricate a name, "Qi" wasn't a good surname. Although this surname wasn't rare, it wasn't common either. To avoid such a surname that was easy to remember, in other words, everything he told had to be as unnoticeable as possible. So he decided to call himself "Li Ming". The rest of the story he could tell normally. Even the most astute person wouldn't be able to spot the trick. The game was coming to an end.
