Chapter 155 Psychological Tactics

Weiwei shouted with a pale face, “How about me? I also have wisdom!”

Man Shahua wore a disdainful smile and said, “Yes, you have wisdom! Your brain is full of straw and even is injected with winkle cure, haha! I have real wisdom. Besides, I am better at coping with a man than you. Generally speaking, I am 1,000 times better than you! Do you really think that Mr. Yamamoto will support you, such a waste of a person, instead of me? Weiwei, if you’re clear about the situation, you should choose one to eat. The poisonous package is just one out of five, so the chance of survival is great.”

Weiwei’s face changed color and it was hard for her to refuse.

Her hands were trembling as she picked up a package of instant noodles in the middle as if she were a patient with Parkinson’s disease. She weighed it in her hands but put it down. Then, she turned to the rightmost one, but still hesitated.

Finally, she grabbed the instant noodle pack second from the left side and ate it.

To her surprise, these instant noodles had a good smell, which was extremely fragrant. She could not help eating a few more bites.

Two minutes later, she finished and did not die in five minutes.

She became complacent and said to Long Xi, “Long Xi, what? Why not say something? I must win this game.”

Long Xi said, “You should be happy. Now, we have eight players here to choose the five packages. You will not choose one again! I have not expected that you’re so lucky! Mr. Yamamoto, you must feel regretful. If you had known this result, you should be the first one to pick one up. One out of five is much better than one out of four!”

Yamamoto Shang looked bad, but he said to Man Shahua coldly, “Man Shahua, you should be the second!”

Man Shahua said in a deep voice, “Yamamoto Shang, I will not care how you treat Weiwei, but she is right about this game of life and death. Someone will die in this game, so why should she and I choose the one to eat before you? You really think it’s easy to control women?”

Long Xi did not try to calm down the quarrel, but deliberately seized this chance to make mischief among them. She said, “So, I have a suggestion. You can guess a riddle. Whoever loses the game should pick up one to eat first.”

Yamamoto Shang nodded and said, “Okay.”

“Well, I agree,” Man Shahua said fiercely.

Long Xi revealed a happy expression on her face and said with a smile, “The riddle is ‘Surrender, the Japanese’.”

Xiaolu could not help bursting into laughter. Master Xi was naughty again!

Yan Wangchuan said, “Xiaolongnv, is this the riddle that you asked to me when we’re young? I still remember it talks about a historical figure.”

Long Xi nodded with a smile.

As a Japanese man, Yamamoto Shang was really angry when hearing this riddle, but could not vent his rage at this moment. He was very sullen and had no idea how to guess the riddle.

Man Shahua was a somewhat smart girl. After thinking for a while, she said, “I know. It’s Qu Yuan, because Japan surrendered under the atomic bomb of America.”

Long Xi said, “BINGO, that’s right. It’s your turn, Mr. Yamamoto Shang.”

Yamamoto Shang picked up a package of instant noodles and pretended to be calm as he ate it all.

He was fine!

Man Shahua’s expression changed from expectation to disappoint. She was next!

Long Xi said, “Man Shahua, like your classmate, I suggest you ask Miss Qiuzi for advice first. Since she put the poison inside, she must know which one is poisonous and which one is not.”

Man Shahua thought that she sounded reasonable, so she asked Qiuzi for advice. “Miss Qiuzi, please tell me, which one should I pick up? I will give you all my belongings after the game!”

Qiuzi glanced at Long Xi and said, “Why do I feel that you’re leading them by their noses? Okay, this is more interesting. My boss always likes these changeable plots! How about this, you can eat one first and if you don’t die, I will tell you which one is not poisoned in secret. Then, you can tell her in secret. As for whether you will tell the truth or not, it is up to you to decide.”

Long Xi said, “That’s fine. I am the next after Man Shahua. So, Man Shahua, do you agree that I can pick up one first?”

Man Shahua felt a hint of ominous premonition in her mind, but she dared not eat one at this moment, so she nodded in agreement.

Long Xi’s hand began to linger on the remaining three packs of instant noodles.

She studied psychology before, so she had secretly observed the reaction of Qiuzi when Yamamoto Shang and Weiwei were picking up the noodles.

She found that each time they planned to choose the rightmost one, Qiuzi would behave differently and was slightly nervous.

Therefore, she guessed that the package on the rightmost was poisoned.

Of course, this was just her guess! What if Qiuzi also studied psychology before and pretended in this way to mislead the players?

In any case, Long Xi decided to fight for the chance and picked up the package of instant noodles in the center and ate it.

Watching the whole process, Xiaolu and Yan Wangchuan were much more nervous than her!

Fortunately, perhaps the Buddha really blessed the good guys, so Long Xi escaped from this disaster!

Only two packs of instant noodles were left!

Qiuzi got close to Long Xi and spoke near her ears, while covering it with her hand to keep the others from seeing her mouth.

She whispered, “The left one is poisoned!”

Long Xi nodded and smiled at Man Shahua. “As your classmate, I can tell you the left one is not poisoned!”

Man Shahua thought, “Long Xi always stands on the other side of me, so how can she be so nice to me? She must be lying to me!”

She reached for the rightmost package of instant noodles.

However, Man Shahua thought for a while and thought it was not right!

Finally, she grabbed the pack of instant noodles on the left and ate it.

Long Xi asked, “Why don’t you trust me?”

Man Shahua said, “You are very cunning, so you must think that I will not follow your proposal. In this way, you will tell me the truth! This pack I have eaten must be non-toxic!”

“I don’t know if you have heard of this sentence, cleverness may overreach itself,” Long Xi said coldly.

Actually, Man Shahua was really smart. In regards to wisdom, she was superior to Weiwei.

Just now, Long Xi deliberately said that the left package was non-toxic. It was like gambling. Man Shahua analyzed Long Xi’s thoughts and chose the left package. Fortunately, she guessed right.

Long Xi said, “I remember that you’re good at swimming and used to win first prize in the swimming competitions. You’re the standardized skittish woman! The woman who dragged my leg in the sea when I swam from Esperanza to Hell was you, right?”

Man Shahua said very proudly, “Does it really matter whether it’s me or not? I am not the only one that hates you!”

Qiuzi said plainly, “Man Shahua has chosen the package of poisonous instant noodles, so the game is over!”

Her expression and voice truly explained what was the utmost indifference.

Man Shahua looked at her in horror, and suddenly she felt her stomach hurt badly.

She tore at her own clothes and yelled, “Ah, it hurts, it hurts…”

Her seven apertures were bleeding and she suddenly squatted onto the ground with her eyes filling up with blood. She stared at Long Xi with bloody eyes, shouting, “Why, why should I lose to you?”

Long Xi said, “You have an answer in your own mind, so why do you ask me?”

Man Shahua turned back and pointed at Weiwei, saying, “It’s not me in the sea…”

“Puff…” She threw up blood onto Weiwei’s body, falling down with her screaming. Then, she stopped moving after twitching for a moment.

Weiwei felt sick and even stepped on Man Shahua’s dead body and said with hatred, “You’re such a vicious dog. Bite me at the last moment before you die. I’m so glad you’re dead! Your kind of person is not qualified to be my friend. I wish I had never known her before!”

Qiuzi asked someone to dispose of the body, while Long Xi took the remaining package of instant noodles. This one was definitely non-toxic.

Long Xi took out the iron pot while Yan Wangchuan brought out the bottles of mineral water, saying, “This is our equipment, not bad!”

Weiwei looked at the bottles of mineral water with a poor expression, asking Yan Wangchuan in a low voice, “My old classmate, can you give me some water? I am extremely thirsty!”

Yan Wangchuan asked Long Xi for advice through eye contact. Long Xi nodded and agreed.

Weiwei had trapped Long Xi a few times, but Long Xi thought she had not done anything vicious. Based on their past friendship, Long Xi could not ignore Weiwei’s appeal.

Yan Wangchuan passed Weiwei a bottle of water. Weiwei continued to express her appreciation.

Weiwei swallowed a sip of water and felt better. She even asked Long Xi shamelessly, “Little Xi, I finally understand who is the reliable friend. Can I follow you? I am so scared to be here alone! Everyone is itching to do something and even would like to kill people around them! I am really scared! I beg you to take me with you!”

Yamamoto Shang said, “Weiwei, you’re my private property. I have ownership of you, so I don’t allow you to leave!”

Weiwei snorted and said, “You just treated me in such a cold way, so why should I still follow you? Besides, you got hurt on your feet. You even cannot protect yourself, so how can you look after me?”

Yamamoto Shang sneered and said, “If I die, my big brother will not let you go. He knows all your ins and outs. You can weigh the pros and cons.”

Weiwei looked at Long Xi with a helpless gaze.

Long Xi asked Xiaolu, Yan Wangchuan, and Bai Bing, “What do you think?”

Xiaolu fell silent.

Weiwei was infatuated with him, so he always had some feelings of guilt for her. He really did not wish to leave her at this time.

However, his rationality told him not to be soft at this moment. Weiwei was not a reliable person.

Although he said nothing, Long Xi could understand his intention.

Yan Wangchuan refused at once. “Xiaolongnv, she is not the previous Weiwei. The girl standing in front of you loves vanity and is selfish and changeable. I don’t want her to join our team.”

Bai Bing also said, “I can’t believe her!”

Long Xi said, “Weiwei, to tell you the truth, I can’t trust you. Try to do your best.”

Weiwei cried in distress.

Long Xi, Xiaolu, Yan Wangchuan, and Bai Bing walked away. Then, each of them drank a bottle of water. They felt much better.

It was the late autumn, and the cold sea breeze passed by like a knife.

The sky was cloudy and a storm seemed to be coming.

Long Xi proposed to find a cave to avoid the rain, while the other three agreed.
