Clown Game-Chapter 54 - 45 Black and White Game 5
Chapter 54: Chapter 45 Black and White Game 5
Chapter 54 -45 Black and White Game 5
This set of actions, grinning, eye-gouging and chuckling, to tell the truth, gave a very poor viewing experience, and everyone else felt a bit nauseated as they curled their lips. However, in their eyes, Chen Xiao’s behavior was still a good method to confuse and deceive.
Just at that moment, “Muscle Sister” spoke up as well.
“Haha, he is fooling you! Actually, your color is white, oh, but I might be lying too… So, how will you choose?”
She smiled a bit, her expression as if saying, “Come on, let’s see what you choose.”
But at this moment, the bespectacled man didn’t show any hesitation, he almost clicked on the screen of his smartphone before “Muscle Sister” had even finished her sentence.
The system prompt sounded directly.
System notification: “Congratulations, you have made the correct choice!”
Everyone frowned, looking somewhat disappointed, and they were all a bit dubious of his instantaneous decision, feeling like he knew with absolute certainty that he would choose correctly.
“He actually guessed it right!” Wang Billy muttered under his breath.
“Hehehehe…”
At this time, Chen Xiao started laughing again. At the same time, he continued to laugh while keeping his eyes fixed on the bespectacled man.
Meanwhile, the bespectacled man smiled elegantly, his thumb pressing against his temple as his thoughts drifted off to who knows where, as if this round of the game had nothing to do with him at all.
Oh, that’s right.
He had chosen “black.”
The same answer Chen Xiao had told him.
…
…
Next, it was Chen Xiao’s turn.
In fact, as the second-to-last player of the first round, he had already scanned everyone’s speaking habits, movements, attire, and tone of voice. Although some things could be used to deceive, there were others that couldn’t be faked. Like the “Slovenly Uncle” pressing down on his throat to produce a raspy voice, a habit from often shouting loudly. Or “Lamppost”, whose right pupil was noticeably more prominent than the left, a sign of a sniper accustomed to peering through high-powered scopes daily. And then there was Wang Billy with his sly gaze and fingers intercrossed in small gestures, and “Muscle Sister” straddling her leg with the demeanor of a tough woman.
Some people are irascible, and some are calm; this isn’t just a matter of intelligence, it’s about the state a person has to maintain in their everyday life. At this round table, one could pretend to be brash or deliberately mimic others’ actions. But the traces of a very long past have seeped into people’s bodies and couldn’t be completely hidden, and to Chen Xiao, these traces were as obvious as bright fluorescent marks emphasized and circled.
So, Chen Xiao knew what everyone was thinking, and he knew who was lying.
…
But even so, he couldn’t guarantee that he would win.
He understood that as the game progressed and the number of players dwindled, the difficulty increased. To conjecture human nature with reason is indeed unreliable. You might guess right once, twice, but surely not every time. Each person might hesitate and then make a random choice, just like himself.
Therefore, he gradually lost interest, stopped talking, and just watched the others’ scheming behavior for amusement.
Because he knew, if this went on, the game would end up in a boring conclusion where the victor relied on “luck.”
“Hmm… boring…”
He began to feel a bit impatient inside.
…
Until the bespectacled man’s behavior just occurred.
Although he actually hadn’t done much, he made the game interesting again because he had done something Chen Xiao was preparing to do in the next round.
And this meant that he also understood the “Black and White Game”… its true way to play.
So, the reason Chen Xiao laughed with “hehehe” was that he had found something more intriguing than obtaining a C-level piece of equipment.
“You’re inviting me to join your game, aren’t you?”
At that moment, Chen Xiao kept his gaze on the bespectacled man. Although everyone was somewhat disgusted by his expression, he didn’t care at all.
“People who like to squint are really not likable,” Chen Xiao thought, while also smiling.
“Since you’ve gambled, I might as well gamble too, otherwise, it would be so uninteresting.”
…
…
A “ding” sounded.
Chen Xiao’s avatar appeared on everyone else’s phones, and they all furrowed their brows—clearly, they were not fond of this avatar.
They then looked up, scanning each other’s eyes for clues, before their gazes settled on Chen Xiao.
And what about Chen Xiao?
He sat back, legs crossed, leaning against his chair, “Do you guys want to hear me sing a song?”
He asked with an excited face.
“Muscle Sister” frowned, “What’s with the song? It’s your turn, don’t you have something to say?”
“Power Pole” also looked at Chen Xiao with a puzzled expression.
“What’s going on now, all the newcomers are acting so weird. Is the HR department even doing their jobs properly?” Wang Billy said.
Chen Xiao ignored them completely, heh heh, and began to sing.
…
“Daddy picks up a knife, gives me a ha-ha smile, Mommy’s head rolls under the bed, wah wah wah, wah wah wah, they peel off my skin, made me into a doll…”
…
As everyone watched Chen Xiao humming and singing to himself, swaying to the rhythm, all had faces of painful awkwardness (although “Muscle Sister” had no balls, she still managed to convey that feeling).
“Hey, can’t you be a bit more tense? Where did you learn such a nursery rhyme, and how can you sing it so cheerfully?” Wang Billy ranted. Logically, seeing Chen Xiao’s nonsensical behavior, he should have waited quietly for his time to run out, but for some reason, he just couldn’t help but mock him.
Then, the time reminders went off on everyone’s phones
“Remaining time, 5, 4, 3…”
Everyone was startled and hurriedly lowered their heads to pick an option.
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
“Phew~ That was close; his singing is too enchanting. Almost missed the time without noticing.”
People silently sweated bullets.
Then the selection result page appeared on Chen Xiao’s phone
——————————————
Your color selection result:
“Black” 3 votes
“White” 1 vote
…
Please choose your color: “Black” “White”
Time: 01:00
——————————————
Then, Chen Xiao finally wrapped up that nursery rhyme, with both melody and lyrics eerily enchanting, in his hoarse voice.
The others also let out a sigh of relief, feeling as if staying in his singing too long would lower certain stats.
“Hurry up and choose, newbie!” Wang Billy said impatiently, eager to get this lunatic out of the game.
Chen Xiao glanced at his phone and then, with a sly grin, turned his face towards “Glasses Man.”
…
Tell me!
What is my color…
