Chapter 3: Technical People

"Liar..."

Qi Xia repeated these three words to himself a few times, confirming his identity, then quietly covered the card.

Just a minute ago, he had also fantasized about "everyone leaving alive."

But now it was different.

Although he didn't know the eight people in front of him, this time, only they could die.

"If everyone has no objections, please remember the rules. In this game, there is and only is one liar..." The Goat-headed man pointed his finger at the sexy girl to Qi Xia's left. "Then starting with you, let's go clockwise in turn."

"Huh? Me?" The girl was stunned, then pouted.

Qi Xia turned his head to look. Starting with the girl to his left and going clockwise was not very advantageous for him.

He would be the last one to speak.

In extremely tense and oppressive situations, people usually only remember the first and last speakers.

But raising a question now would seem too out of place. He could only take it one step at a time.

The sexy girl frowned, her big eyes darting around, and finally she sighed and said, "Okay... I'll go first, but I'm not good at telling stories since I was little, so please don't blame me if I don't tell it well..."

At this moment, everyone didn't know what to say and could only listen quietly.

The sexy girl extended her slender fingers, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and then said:

"My name is Tian Tian. I'm a... uh... a 'technical worker.' We earn money by our skills, and I don't feel ashamed of it."

Only then did everyone notice that the girl named Tian Tian was wearing very little, just a dirty, low-cut mini-dress that didn't cover what it was supposed to.

But she didn't seem to care about it either.

"Many of my stories are not convenient to share with everyone... In short, calling me 'action' is fine, but calling me 'description' I really don't know how to start, after all, who with a bit of education would do my line of work..."

"Anyway, before I came here, I was at work. But the customer I met was really weird... Our shop clearly provided a service location, but he insisted on going to his car, saying it would be more exciting... So, to earn money, I had to go with him..."

"This was also my first time working in a car. I didn't expect a car that looked quite high-end to be so narrow inside. In no time, I was covered in sweat. I really didn't know what was so 'exciting' about this broken place. During this time, the customer's phone kept ringing, and he refused to answer it no matter what. I was really annoyed..."

Tian Tian seemed to want to scold the customer a few more times, but her eyes accidentally瞟到 the dead body on the table, and she immediately shivered in fright, then took a deep breath and said:

"Ah, forget it, this is the industry I chose, I accept it. I just didn't expect a 'earthquake' to happen so suddenly. At first, I thought our movements were too big, that's why it was shaking so badly, who knew it was really an earthquake."

As soon as she said the word "earthquake", everyone's faces subtly changed, as if they had remembered something.

"Our car was parked in an alley... right above it was a big advertising board... At that time, my head was sticking out of the car, and I just happened to see it." Tian Tian gestured with her finger pointing at her head, her voice trembling as she said, "That huge advertising board, for some reason, after a 'clang' sound, it broke off and fell directly onto the car, and I lost consciousness..."

She let out another long sigh and said, "When I woke up, I was here. I was really scared to death..."

Tian Tian showed a wronged expression. This expression looked like it had been specially practiced and made men's hearts flutter a bit.

The man with tattooed arms sitting next to her was slightly startled and said, "Everyone, do we need to keep talking?"

The man in the white coat was surprised and looked at the man with tattooed arms: "What do you mean?"

"This 'lady' has already lied, we can just vote directly." The man with tattooed arms said confidently.

"You...! What did you say?!" Tian Tian was startled. "Where did I lie?"

The man with tattooed arms gave Tian Tian a cold look and said, "Your name, you said your name is 'Tian Tian', but all the bar girls use pseudonyms. Pseudonyms like 'Tian Tian', 'Xiao Fang', 'Li Li' are very common, so you hid your real name, which means you have already lied."

After he finished saying this, Tian Tian's face turned red.

"You... what nonsense are you talking about? My name is Tian Tian! I haven't used my real name in years!" After saying that, she looked around at everyone and added, "At my workplace, you can only find me by calling me 'Tian Tian'. No one knows me by my real name!"

Everyone at this moment began to ponder, and Qi Xia's expression also became serious.

From Tian Tian's words just now, Qi Xia couldn't detect any feeling of lying. When she described the story, her rhythm was steady and her tone was relaxed.

This way of speaking, like chatting with friends, can only prove two results. One is that the story she told was made up a long time ago and she has told it to herself many times; the other is that she is telling the truth.

But now the man with tattooed arms provided Qi Xia with another idea.

That is "name lying."

Name lying does not require logic or rationality, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see through it.

After all, everyone present has never met before, and their names can only be known through their own narration.

Qi Xia carefully recalled the Goat-headed man's words. He said, "Among all the storytellers, one person has lied." This rule did not state that the liar must lie with a "fake story". A "fake name" is just as applicable.

Seeing that she was suspected, Tian Tian's eyes widened, looking very nervous: "You, if you still don't believe me, my real name is Zhang Lijuan... I'm from Shaanxi... You can try calling me by my real name, I won't respond to my real name, I will only respond to the name 'Tian Tian'... I, I..."

Hearing this, Qi Xia shook his head silently.

This woman was not as smart as he thought.

In other words, she could not have fabricated this lie beforehand, and even less likely to have temporarily thought of the "name lying" strategy.

The Goat-headed man said "there is and only is one liar", so that person could only be Qi Xia himself.

If the others didn't notice the seriousness of the "Tian Tian" issue, then he had found a foolproof method.

If he were to invent a name, "Qi" is not a good surname. Although this surname is not rare, it is also not common, and he should avoid having a surname that is easy to remember.

In other words, everything he told should be as inconspicuous as possible.

So he prepared to call himself "Li Ming".

He could tell the rest of the story normally, so even the most skilled person would not be able to see through it.

The game was about to end.
