“Let’s Start Reasoning” Season 3 An unknown fog shrouds the city of deduction. Players will experience In each investigation, six players are divided into detectives, suspects, and the real culprit. The real culprit’s task is to hide their identity and avoid being discovered by other players. Only the real culprit is allowed to lie. If the culprit passes a challenge, they can choose one detective to turn them into X. Once blackened, X joins the culprit’s team. During the subsequent investigation, X works to help the culprit escape. After the investigation, players vote for the real culprit. If the culprit receives fewer votes than the other suspects, the culprit and X win the golden key. Otherwise, the other players who voted correctly win the golden key.

Because I ate too much yesterday. I went back to my room to sleep. At 3:55, I suddenly heard a very strange sound. A strange noise. Then I wondered what it was. So I came out. And the door was just like everyone saw earlier. The door was locked. I left at 11:20. You all stayed in the dining room. Stayed there. Stayed there. Yes, that’s right. Yes. Yes. I went for a late-night snack at 10:30. 10:30. Wait, let me write this down. Late-night snack at 10:30. Twenty minutes later, the boss arrived. (10:)50. Yes, then we ate for thirty minutes. Then you said you weren’t feeling well. And you left. 11:20. Then when we looked back, Ren Weishan was gone. After I left at 11:20, he disappeared too. Yes, that’s right. Then the five of us ate for another forty minutes. Forty minutes. Then we went back together. The two of us had exactly the same experience. Wrong, completely wrong. Alright, you tell your side. Go ahead. We had dinner together at 10:30. And then? Twenty minutes later, the boss arrived. Right. After thirty minutes, she said she wanted to go home. She went home. We kept eating for another forty minutes. Then we left, the rest of us left. But when we looked back, the boss was still there. Where was he? Still sitting there eating. Mine was exactly the same as his. Mine was exactly the same as his too. There’s a difference. When did he leave? Alright, today the culprit is a direct one out of two. That’s enough, no need to say more. What? Why? Why isn’t it one out of three? Why isn’t it you three as the options? Classic one out of two. Classic one out of two. You’re talking about TV dramas, classic tropes. Alright, let’s search together. What does the victim have on them? There’s blood here. There’s some on the neck too. Look, there’s some on his hands as well. Both hands have it. So right now, it seems like he probably threw two punches. But this on his hand looks like a scrape. Yeah. It’s just an abrasion. I think it’s a dragging injury, probably. I mean, he was already unconscious. It must be like this, it’s everywhere. Yeah, I agree with what she said. What you said makes sense too. So it means he was injured by being hit. Let’s keep looking. The watch can record. This won’t open. What about the outer pocket of the jacket? There’s something. There’s something here, wait a second. Open it. Okay. The key to 201 is on him. His room key. Room. Then let’s search his room. Let’s go. Let’s check out 201 first. Let’s go. Ren Weishan. Key. Here. Come in, let’s collect evidence. Take a look. This painting is… B. This painting is white. These are three white paintings. Explain it. I am the Painting Sage. I’ve seen some of your paintings. I can buy them at a high price. He’s the Painting Sage, right? Yes. Painting Sage. There must be a hidden meaning in this painting. What does “A T P” mean? A P T. APT, APT. After you dance this dance, you’ll be told what it means. No, you go. You have to join too. The paintings you drew. Your paintings. Okay. Come on. Come on. Let’s all do “APT” together, come on. Who knows it? Who will start? He feels like he’s already dancing. I am. I’ve never danced it. Teach us, come on. Come on. We only need to know two moves. I don’t know what the moves are either. But I’ll just make something up. This move. Then like this. One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Okay. Alright, let’s repeat this. Okay, let’s go. Alright, that’s simple. Come on, Five, Six, Seven, go! APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT Why aren’t you moving your feet? APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT APT It’s an earthquake! What is this? An earthquake? What, what, what is it? It’s gone. So after we finish dancing, what clues will we get? If there’s no reward today, I’m telling you, I’ll just put this painting right on your head. You’re not really messing with us, are you? Yes. Yes. APT APT APT APT APT APT I just feel like everyone’s a bit low on energy right now. You’re kind of like those phone stores where the employees come out and dance in the morning. That kind of vibe. Are you trying to get us pumped up? Aren’t you? Let’s go! Come on! Money, please! Come on, keep going! There’s something here. What? Come. This is a report about him. Ren Weishan, Chairman of Tuixian Group. A legendary journey of wealth and philanthropy. Tuixian Group has already entered the fields of cultural relics and real estate, as well as tourism, medicine, beauty, and other industries. It has become an important force in the business world. Rumor has it that years ago, he found the female pirate Tuiniang’s treasure island and took the island’s treasure for himself. Although outsiders have many criticisms of Mr. Ren Weishan, it cannot be denied that he is a successful entrepreneur who actively participates in charity work and has brought a lot of positive energy to Tui City. So, he’s a good person. We haven’t gone inside yet. Let’s go in and take a look. What a big bedroom. His suitcase is here. Something is missing. I finally found something. So cool. Really. Come take a look, there’s a message on WeChat. Lingling sent him three paintings. These are your paintings, right? Yes. There’s also one from Mr. Qin. March 13th, 1 PM. He said, “I’m Mr. Ren, trust me.” “I’ll definitely give you a great experience.” Who is the person with the surname Qin? Has anyone with the surname Qin appeared so far? No. Okay. Shall we check his balance? Okay. Payments and receipts. The payment function hasn’t been enabled yet. Then what is that message? This is the message you sent him. I’ve had some new inspiration lately. How about March 15th? Let’s meet at Pirate Mansion. Right. Based on this clue, it means that he came to this mansion because of you. Yes, that’s right. They’re going to Bai’s room. Alright, okay. Okay, let’s go then. Welcome to my space. Bedroom. What do these three paintings mean? This is n. The three paintings from just now. Yes, the ones in the phone. Yes. Right. So someone snuck into your room. Yes. Phone. You are Ling Ling Fa. You are Ling Ling Fa. What? What is that? He is Ling Ling Fa. I’m not Ling Ling Fa. Then where did this phone come from? This phone belongs to Ling Ling Fa. Wait. Wait. What is this? You robbed Ling Ling Fa. The boss said to Ling Ling Fa, Baizhihua seems to have remembered something. I need to check the situation myself. You can’t be soft-hearted when doing big things. I must kill him. To eliminate future trouble. Now that things have come to this, I can only tell my story. Go ahead. After we finished, before we had dinner, I was about to return to my room. On my way back, I saw two people wearing those cloaks. The two people with masks. Cloaked and masked. But in the restaurant, we only saw one person. Not wearing a cloak. Who is that? Wearing a glow-in-the-dark outfit. So we only saw one. But on the way back yesterday, I saw two. So I followed them all the way. Up to the second floor. I chased them to the second floor. Then I found that both of them had disappeared. I looked around. When I got to the boss’s door, there was a gap. The door was open. I pushed the door open. I went into the boss’s room. I saw my three paintings. I understood immediately. So the boss is the mysterious painting buyer. But what I’m really curious about is why he wrote those letters on my paintings. I thought there must be something wrong with him. Then I heard his walkie-talkie go off. Someone said, “Boss, boss,” “I found the painting in Bai’s room,” or something like that. “Should we get rid of him?” Or something like that. As soon as I heard it, I said, What does this have to do with me? Are they trying to get rid of me? What exactly are you all trying to do? So I thought I’d go back to my room and block this Ling Ling Fa to ask him clearly I ambushed him at my room door Sure enough, he came out I caught him off guard with an uppercut but I missed and hit myself on the head with the uppercut I hit myself I hit myself After hitting myself on the head with the uppercut I was instantly dazed for three seconds Dazed for three seconds When I adjusted myself and got ready to chase he had already run away But his phone and walkie-talkie maybe were left behind because I scared him were left on the spot Then I checked his phone and their records I found out the boss wanted to kill me So I thought maybe I should fight back and take him out too I went to his room to look for him at ten o’clock. I wanted to kill him. I knocked for a long time, but no one answered. Then at ten thirty, I went to the appointment. Your motive for murder is clear now. It’s because you thought he wanted to kill you. So you had to protect yourself. Obviously, yes. No problem. This is very simple. A very straightforward motive for murder. Very direct. Yes. As for these letters on here, it’s because I saw the painting in the boss’s room. There were letters on it. I wanted to see if this had anything to do with my memory. So I tried to find three letters in my own painting. And I actually found them. I really did find them. I took these six letters and rearranged them. I rearranged them. There are two possibilities. One is “parents”. The other word is very uncommon. “Enchanted” or “infatuated”. I’m completely captivated. My restless heart feels like it’s setting off fireworks. It just makes me feel really strange. This diagonal, this symbol— After I saw these paintings, a pattern suddenly appeared in my mind. Then I thought it was very strange. So I drew it out. Does anyone find this symbol familiar? I think it looks very familiar. What is it? It’s because on my— My skirt also has this symbol on it. My grass skirt. Is this some kind of symbol from your island? Yes. So that’s why it’s called Shenhundian Island. Six years ago, I woke up in a cave. Baba Liu happily told me that he had found a boat that could take us off this island. Your island is called Shenhundian Island? Yes. Let’s keep searching. Okay. Let’s go check Baba’s room. Okay. Let’s go take a look in her room. Wait, who is it? Don’t. It’s fine. It’s fine. Hide in the room, it’s safe inside. Why is someone screaming? Who are you? Hurry up and go. There’s no one behind you anymore. No. How come there’s no one left? It’s fine. Then let’s wait a bit. Teacher Bai. Did you go somewhere? He went ghost hunting again. Come here. Did you go in? I’m in. This is Ren Weishan’s room. Yes, the one ahead is 201. They’re in Ren Weishan’s room. Come, this way. I’m so scared. Don’t talk. Don’t be afraid. Where is it? Right here. Who are you? Boss. Who are you? Who are you? Second boss. Who are you? Ready, go. We are… Have you heard of us? That’s pretty impressive. I’m really scared right now. Go help me turn on the light. Where’s the light? In the living room. The switch next to the flowerpot. I won’t get shocked, right? No, you won’t. I remember. What does he want to do? I’m here. It’s okay, I’ll hold him back. I’m holding him back. Okay, you hold him back. You go hold him back yourself. Why are you grabbing me? I’m really scared right now. I knew he was here. He’s sitting here. I found it. Turn on the light. It’s on. It’s on, but why is it still so dark for me? Open your eyes. Open your eyes. You guys. Sit down. There’s an extra laptop here. What’s this for? Why are you here? Didn’t the boss leave? Those confidential files— He didn’t have time to hand them over to me. When I came over, the laptop was already on the table. After I got here, I took it. I wanted to look for some files. When I opened it, there was a password. I couldn’t unlock it either. So I thought, maybe I could unlock it with facial recognition. So after I came over, I wanted to use the hair dryer to style my hair. I wanted to try facial recognition. As soon as I plugged it in, before I could use it, the power suddenly went out. I was like, ah! I got scared. I’m afraid of the dark. Right? I think our brainstorming right now isn’t working anymore. It’s already early morning. Let’s sleep until nine in the morning. No, let’s sleep until noon or even the afternoon. Alright, sounds good. Okay. Let’s rest and recharge, then try again. Let’s rest up first. Let’s sleep. Right. Okay. Let’s go. We ate quite a lot. Before we rested yesterday, we were talking about Bajiaoshan’s room. Let’s check if there are any clues. Come on, let’s go check Ba’s room. What a coincidence. Your look is great today. Stop teasing me. My hair got soaked in the rain yesterday. I didn’t take care of it in time, so it got all tangled. Isn’t that a coincidence? I just happened to bring Pantene hair mask today. It contains collagen. It gives your hair intensive care. Take good care of your hair so it stays strong, resilient, and shiny. That’s so thoughtful. Thank you. Let’s go. Come and catch me. Today’s theme is an ocean theme. Hello. Hello, Princess. What about me? You are the ocean. You are the pearl. I’ll just wait for him. Don’t remind him, let him speak. Mermaid. Let’s look at your mark first. Didn’t you say there was something familiar? Yes. How do you wear this? This seems like… This is like what Sun Wukong wore. Sun Wukong’s skirt-pants. This is from when you were on the deserted island. When you were living there. You made this wildman’s outfit, right? Yes. You made these clothes for Baba Liu. Then Baba Liu should wear them. Baba (Liu). Baba Liu. Baba Liu. You take this… Loincloth. What does it mean to put this on? It really suits you. I’m kind of speechless. We need to search carefully. Wait, there’s something inside. What is it? There’s a piece of paper in here. Really? Look. He has scissors here. Where? Here, move it aside. Just cut straight across. No, don’t cut it like that. Hello, Princess. What’s wrong? Today, I’m your butler. If you have any orders, just— At least stand next to me when you say it. Okay. Hello, Princess. Give it to me, I’ll do it. I… Not strong enough. Can I cut it like this? Here. There’s a piece of paper here. You read it. Go ahead. You read it, Baba Liu. Baba Liu. Xiao Ba. I hope when you see these words, you can forgive me for deceiving you. Deceiving. Two years ago, I was abducted to this small island called “Shenhun Dian Island.” They gave me a number. C8745. A number. When I felt hopeless in life, it was your number, the one who grew up on the island, B8864, that gave me hope. You have a number too. Because your personality is both proud and kind, I used my own surname to give you the name Ba Jiaoshan. We made a promise to bravely move forward together. But later, for some reason, you suddenly lost your memory. My head hit a reef. That’s why I lost my memory. I took you to a cave and hid you there. I also discovered that they created the Fountain of Youth. The Fountain of Youth was man-made. The Fountain of Youth He didn’t stay young because of supplements. He stayed young until then because of the Fountain of Youth. It can only maintain a youthful appearance on the surface. Maintain. So I stole a bottle hoping to take it out as evidence of their crime. Evidence. I couldn’t tell you these things in person, so I had to sew them into this dress. I ask for your forgiveness. Do you still remember any of this? Of course not. I lose my memory every six months. C8745 B8864 “Shenhun Dian Island” Friends, I feel like we are all people on this island. This old man, Ren Weishan, look, he also does beauty and medical treatments. Hand out some business cards to them. What blood types are you all? We are all numbered test subjects. C8745, B8864. You have a number too. To make these people immortal, they extract things from our bodies. So they can live forever. The Fountain of Youth. I also found out they created a Fountain of Youth. Ba. There’s definitely a flaw in your logic. Why? They probably didn’t extract anything from me. Because I’m still this fat. Everyone who got extracted from became thinner. But they’re not extracting fat. I want the thing they took from her. I want it injected into my body. I want it. Bring Ren Weishan back to life for me. He’s already dead. It’s too late. Check for me. Hurry, next step. Check for me, I must find out today. Next, go to Ning’s room. As for me, I’ll go to the reception. Because I didn’t go back to my room to sleep last night. I slept at the reception. Alright, let’s go. Ning, reception. Come on. Start searching. This is way too clean. Check out that flower. Come. You didn’t find it again. It was just in the place you were looking. I really… Name Qi Ji Nuannuan Your wife This girl is called Qi Ji. A year after I married her, we had a child. I found out that she and our daughter had disappeared. ID number Date of birth February 15, 1980 No previous medical history upon examination. No bad habits. Excellent genes, able to bear children. Has already given birth to two sons and one daughter for Ren Weishan. Discovered during escape. Handled, confirmed deceased. Goosebumps. So your motive for murder has already come out. Jin Shangbao There are two more pieces of paper where you just searched. Jin Shangbao That Ning family, just because Nuannuan is a girl, your parents abandoned her at the foundling tower. I can hardly believe it, in this day and age. In broad daylight, such blatant murder of girls can still happen. Your family is utterly heartless. I’ve already found my daughter. But from now on, we are completely severed. Never see me again. Who wrote this? Qi Ji Qi Ji’s mother Qi Ji wrote it. Nuannuan is her daughter—that’s me. You abandoned your daughter. Just because she was a girl, you left her at the foundling tower. And this, too. If you want to know your wife’s whereabouts, go to Room 201. This must have been received last night. Here’s what happened. After things ended at nine o’clock last night, I told Ba Jiaoshan that we hadn’t seen each other in a long time. So I went back to the room with her. We had a good talk about our father-daughter relationship. We talked about how things have been these past few years. Or maybe I shared a bit about how I’ve been these past few years. You abandoned her, yet you still have so much to say. Yes. That’s right. Around 9:40, I left her room. I planned to tidy up a bit. We were going to have dinner together at 10:30. But at my room’s door, there were these two letters. So, judging by the handwriting, I could tell it was from my wife, Qiji. The handwriting was hers. Back then, my parents told me that my wife, Qiji, couldn’t stand life in the countryside. She thought life here was too hard. So she resolutely left with Nuannuan. But when I saw this letter, I finally learned the truth from back then. It was because my parents valued sons over daughters. Without my wife Qiji knowing, my parents abandoned you at the foundling tower. They intended to leave you to fend for yourself. My wife found out about this. She immediately ran to the abandoned baby tower. You can see she already wrote it in her letter. I just found our daughter. At that moment, she thought that I told my parents to abandon you. She thought I didn’t want a daughter. Because my parents lied to both sides. Actually, it was all a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding. Then I searched for my daughter and my wife for nineteen years. One day, I went out fishing. When I came back, I found that both mother and daughter had disappeared. So yesterday, when I saw this letter, I finally understood everything that happened back then. There was also a note saying if you want to know your wife’s whereabouts, go to Room 201. That’s Ren Weishan’s room. So at 4:45, right after I left her room, five minutes later, I went to Room 201. Kill him immediately. Go find him immediately. Didn’t take it out. Then when I went there, the door was ajar. The door was open. That means someone had already been there. When I went, there was no one there. So I found this. It’s this piece of paper. I think it was at this moment when she was writing this farewell letter that she was suddenly taken away. Because in this place, I’ve already found my daughter. But from now on, we are completely finished, never to meet again. I will turn into a wave. It feels like she was suddenly just suddenly interrupted. I think after she was taken away, she was forced to be locked up somewhere. to have a child for Ren Weishan. But she wanted to escape from that place. But she ended up being killed. What about the kid? Was the kid killed too? No. No. No one knows about those two kids. Because I’m the receptionist here. So after you all left, I closed the door to the banquet hall. That was around midnight. There’s a smart socket in the banquet hall. It needs me to use my phone and enter my personal account password to turn off that smart power strip. It only controls that room, right? Yes, it’s just the banquet hall’s smart socket. So, at midnight, I came back and stayed in the reception room. I was thinking of a foolproof plan. I wanted to kill him. Did you come up with one? As I was thinking, as I kept thinking, and thinking, I fell asleep. Okay. Okay. Okay. Toolbox. There are a lot of things in his toolbox. There are many things inside the toolbox. Walkie-talkie. UV flashlight. Scan these items of his, see if there’s anything. Right. That’s correct. This What is this? What kind of green fish is that? There’s one here too. Who is this? Fluorescent The person wearing the cape Yeah The fluorescent guy is giving you a hint. The fluorescent guy is helping us. The fluorescent guy is making everything happen. Alright, let’s go to the next room. Gold Next Okay, let’s go. Go Go Come on Start Start Start You look so greedy. You’re obsessed with money, aren’t you? No, I’m looking for clues. I didn’t take her money. Found it. Your family’s genes are really strong. Six people All share the same face. Yeah When children are born in our family they all have my face. What about this? What is this? This is a symbol of our family. What family are you from? Are you a noble or something? Mermaid Is there anything behind that? Take it. Open it yourself. This box can’t be opened. There’s something here. Top secret of the Tuixian Group. “Shenhundian Island” Development Plan. Eliminate native residents deemed worthless. Those with disabilities or illnesses. People over sixty and similar groups. All to be executed by being thrown into the sea. Strict imprisonment and control. Young and healthy adults. This plan must be kept strictly confidential at the top level. Advance the development plan in secret. Ren Weishan, April 2000. Jin Shangbao. This island is “Shenhundian Island.” It’s the island you stayed on. This was once a paradise. Everyone lived in harmony. Just like it’s described in “Peach Blossom Spring.” But I can’t recite it anymore. It was truly wonderful. Until one day, A man named Ren Weishan developed this island. He invaded us. He took all our islanders and captured and imprisoned them. The old, weak, sick, and disabled were thrown into the sea. The young were imprisoned. He destroyed this place. This is what I discovered. Here’s what happened. My whole family used to live on that island. We are all descendants of Tui Sanniang and her followers. Then Ren Weishan heard there was treasure on our island and came to invade us. He imprisoned us all together. Yesterday, didn’t you ask me why my sister disappeared? My parents passed away soon after. My parents were already in poor health. My sister’s disappearance was a huge blow to them. Back then, when he led us in our escape, my sister went missing. It devastated them. My father died first. Then my mother held on for a while and on her deathbed, she told me about my true identity and this box. She brought it from “Shenhun Dian Island” back then. She took it with her when she left. It holds secrets about our island and our family’s origins. But the password can’t be unlocked. Then what’s your relationship with Ren Weishan? Don’t you have that symbol? The pirate pattern on the back of the photo. My mom had a ring. It had this pattern. My mom told me that during the big fire back then, the person who caused the deaths on our island, when she escaped, my mom used her own ring heated it in the fire and pressed this pattern onto that person’s hand. Yesterday, there was one. Which room are we staying in? This mark is exactly what my mom told me about. It’s the killer’s mark. My sister died in the sea. Both my parents died. That’s how I became someone with no close family. Before my mom died, she told me I must take revenge. So, you killed him. Of course. At that moment, the urge to kill arose. That’s why I wanted to go to his room. Just to investigate. At 21:25, I arrived at his room. I found that he wasn’t in the room. And it wasn’t locked. Then I couldn’t find him. I couldn’t kill him. So I found that piece of paper. Then let’s hurry to the next place. Mine. Go upstairs. Let’s go. So beautiful. A butterfly. What is this? It’s so beautiful. Yeah, he likes bugs. Before we start collecting evidence, why don’t you explain yourself first? Treat. That’s how I was treated. Here’s a file folder. This is from Tuishi Agriculture. This is Tuishi (Agriculture). Letting you play. Letting you play. That scared me. I was just about to read “Tuishi Agriculture.” He Chongchong said, Approved. You have been admitted to our university’s Biological Sciences, Entomology major. Please come here to register. Agricultural University. He Chongchong. Gender: Male. Age: Sixteen. Height: 1.60 meters. You were 1.60 meters tall at sixteen? Search again. This… This… Say, what’s wrong? You tell me, what’s wrong? How come you draw just like him? Isn’t this Baihua’s drawing? You two… Brothers. No. It’s just where we live. “Shenhundian Island” You’re all from the same hometown, all of you. Right. Then… Who’s this? This is on “Shenhundian Island”. He’s the steward in charge of my area. Steward? Yes. Why did you take a photo with the steward? This is fake. There’s so much stuff. If the lighthouse hasn’t arrived yet, even an isolated island can reach the mountains and seas. Be brave and pursue the meaning of life. Your future depends on yourself. Don’t hesitate, don’t wander, don’t look back. Who wrote this for you? My steward. What’s your relationship with your steward? Something feels off to me. There’s a piece of paper here. Inside the pet box. There’s a piece of paper here. This is so “stupid”. They thought we’d actually be scared of this thing. I’m actually scared. It doesn’t even move. Test Report Sample Name: Fluorescent Powder Sample intact, no abnormalities Upon inspection Fluorescent powder is a type of substance shed from failed test subjects that has flaked off It originates from abnormal deposition of stem cell marker reagents during experiments The reagent degrades and turns into a fluorescent powder which eventually adheres to the test subject If the human body is exposed for a long time it may cause unknown side effects The fluorescent man is also a test subject wearing luminous clothing Fluorescent powder is a type of substance shed from failed test subjects that has flaked off There’s something else So romantic You can do this for your girlfriend in the future I’m a romantic person Any clues? There’s also a phone A cell phone I have to say This photo makes me look handsome again Okay Again and again I’m impressed by your looks again D-Class Roster Ren Weishan Parent-Child Database D1 Female Year 2000 Extracted once per year Extraction quality poor, deceased The rest are the same But D6 Male Born in 2003 Extracted once per year Extraction quality good With the help of the butler Niu Da Escaped in August 2019 Whereabouts unknown Niu Da was punished as a result Later disappeared Must be found and executed as soon as possible There is also a birth record Newborn name: D6 Gender: Male Father’s name It says Ren Weishan, then it’s crossed out Changed to Niu Da Is Niu Da his administrator? Yes So you are Niu Da’s son, D6 Niu Da My father is still Ren Weishan Six years ago My butler suddenly handed me a That information sheet just now He told me to live according to this identity To live Replacing someone else I took his identity Came to Tui City University Studied in the Department of Entomology I am D6 D6 My name is Xiao Niu D6 Calf After graduation I wanted to go back to that island but I couldn’t find that island anymore You can’t go back Can’t go back With no other choice, I found a job at a travel agency Because of work I went to a place called “La Island” And on “La Island” I discovered an insect exactly like that specimen It made me think maybe my butler is here too So I chased this longhorn beetle on the island hoping to find some clues But I fainted while chasing it You’re so useless While I was unconscious when I woke up I was in one of the island’s houses when I woke up When I came out of the house, I saw a glowing person That figure looked just like my butler from behind So I ran after them but I couldn’t catch up When I returned to the cabin I found my things had been organized The way they were arranged was exactly the same as when my butler used to take care of me when I was a child That proved the glowing person must be my butler Then I took his fluorescent powder and came back to test it, and discovered my butler had been turned into a failed experiment subject. So when you saw him yesterday did you feel he looked somewhat like your butler? It was him. I’m sure he was the butler. Then I thought about it Ren Weishan and the butler were in the same place Could Ren Weishan have had bad intentions toward the butler? So last night at 9:15 I went to Ren Weishan’s room to investigate what exactly he wanted to do to the butler. Then at 9:20 I left and returned to my own room. I thought something was wrong. I wanted to check if Niu Da was in the courtyard. I went out to look in the courtyard. So far, you are the only one who has gone out of the courtyard to look for someone. Yes. I did go out of the courtyard. But I didn’t see anything. Then I went back to my room. At 10:30, we went to have a late-night snack. We ate. Had a late-night snack. Yes. Then I went back to sleep. I fell asleep while thinking. My blood sugar was too high. How can you still sleep at a time like this? Alright, let’s go. Who’s next? Go to Ke Wuwang. Last one. Wait a second. Hold on. You have to take off your shoes in my room. Why? Acupressure mat. I’m speechless. Then we don’t have to search. Forget it, let’s not search. Because this is where I usually practice dancing. It’s a special carpet material. So that no one ruins the ecosystem of my room, you must take off your shoes before entering. Don’t be afraid. Really, it’s nothing. I’m even wearing thermal underwear. Who isn’t wearing thermal underwear? Look at mine. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts so much. Dr. He, you go first. This… This tests a person’s body. If a man stands on it, and feels a lot of pain, it means he’s kind of like the “wave pusher” type. Don’t end up being the one who suffers the most. Like pushing the waves forward. Maybe his kidneys are already failing or something. It doesn’t hurt. Of course it doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t hurt at all. Where does it hurt? Does it hurt? Are you in pain? Men who always want to be strong. It’s actually okay. Really, it’s actually fine. Stop pretending. I don’t feel anything at all. Stop pretending. I don’t feel anything at all. A man who always wants to be strong. It’s not bad. Ba. Maybe it’s not that you’re healthy. Maybe you just have thick skin on your feet. The most important thing. Wait, what’s this thing? Okay. The most important thing. You two Does it have to jump that high? Good thing my face wasn’t here. What are you two up to? Ah! Okay, hurry up. What is “sniping butterflies”? We’ll listen to you from the bed. Okay. I want to get on too. Come on, please stand. Confess. Speak. No need to say it, I know. My father is Ke Professor Professor Ke Ke has smelly feet so he takes off his shoes here every day. Okay. My father is a top expert in biology. He has spent his whole life researching something called pluripotent stem cells. These cells can make people live forever and never age. In 2018, when I was sixteen, my father suddenly received an invitation to go to an island as the island’s chief scientist to lead their research on this subject. My father was very interested. He wanted to go to fulfill his research dream. I told him, “Father, I don’t want to be separated from you.” My father couldn’t bear to leave me here alone. So he said, “Alright,” “I’ll take you with me.” He brought me— No, your father entrusted you to me. Shut up. Shut up. How old are you anyway? I was the one who raised you. You should know your own situation. You lose your memory every six months. Who could you possibly take care of? He secretly brought me to this island. Until one day, a little girl appeared. This little girl handed me a crumpled gift. It was wrapped in the paper you’re holding. A gift wrapped in that paper. She told me someone was after her. Someone was looking for her. My dad’s heart softened again, so he took her in as well. Later, while doing research, suddenly one day, my dad told me that this island was no longer safe. He said you have to leave now. Because he told me that there are actually some illegal experiments happening on this island. Before I left, he gave me this. This is the most important thing. A bracelet. That’s right. He said this was left by Mom. Actually, there are two inside. But he only gave me one of the bracelets. Half of it. He said he hopes this half of the butterfly can, in the future, when you go back to your own life, bring you good luck. And this one? Is this also yours? This is mine too, that’s right. You open it. The password is my birthday. I know your birthday, I— This move is just cutting off the source, this move is— I’m really very sad. So upset. You really saw him as an older brother. Because I can totally see that you truly treated him as your big brother. I didn’t expect he would be such an unreliable person. He’s a “hollow man.” Yeah. I’m not a “hollow man.” I’m a “heartless man.” I saw it coming long ago. He’s a “heartless guy.” to opened Here, let me read his diary. December 20, 2019 Ren Weishan, chairman of Tuixian He lives up to his name—hypocritical. He used me to develop a stem cell reagent. He even went so far as to illegally conduct human experiments in secret. This island must be “Shenhun Dian Island.” Yes. Yes. Yes. All the evidence of Ren Weishan’s crimes is well hidden by him. I must find a way to locate that evidence. and report him. But the island’s signal is controlled by Ren Weishan. December 22 I thought of a way to contact the outside world. But not long after I sent the report email, Ren Weishan found out. Not only that, he even forced poison down my throat. The boat to send Xiao Jin away has already been arranged. So Xiao Jin You two are… It’s the gift she gave him. No. The person who gave me this gift is actually named Jin Saozhou. Sister. My sister disappeared. A little girl showed up. She told me someone was trying to kill her. Someone was looking for her. My dad’s heart softened again, so he took her in as well. The boat to send Xiao Jin away has already been arranged. It’s the little girl your parents adopted. That’s Jin Saozhou, right? Yes. My sister is gone. So let me take her place and love you. Love. So what is “Sniper Butterfly”? After I left the island, because my dad told me, that this organization knows about your existence. So after you escaped, they would definitely send people to the city to look for you. So after I got off the island, I went and opened a nightclub. I became the nightclub owner I am now. Your dad was imprisoned on the island, and you went out clubbing. Because I thought the best way to avoid being hunted down was to blend in with the crowd. Keep the music playing and keep dancing. That’s right. Life has to go on. Such an optimistic boy. After I opened this nightclub, I as expected, I lived comfortably on my own for many years. No one found me, indeed. But I still wanted to find my father. So I started thinking about how I could find that island again. I thought, the only clue I brought from the island back then was this butterfly I wear on my hand. So I issued a “Sniper Butterfly” bounty. I hoped that every guest who came to my nightclub could tell me anything about this bracelet, any clue at all, and they would get some free gifts from my club. Until one day, I received an invitation. It was for us to come here. It said this place could take us to see the treasure island of Lady Tui San. I thought maybe this island —since it’s an island anyway— might have some clues. So I came. What a coincidence. Because I had no other leads. Do you and that Ren Weishan have any connection at all? When I saw him last night, on his left hand on his arm there was a mark. I remembered when I was a child on the island, staying there with my father, I saw the staff on the island with this same thing on their hands. So I knew this person must be one of the people from the island back then. So that night, after we finished investigating that case, I went to his study at 9:55. Then I returned to my room at 10:00. He wasn’t in the room, right? He wasn’t in the room. What did you see when you entered his room? Just that locked notebook. Okay, your father’s diary. That’s right. After I came back, I used my birthday to unlock the notebook. I saw what my father wrote back then about everything he went through. I finally understood what really happened to my father at that time. Now, my anxious heart can finally rest. Because my father was already killed. So I knew it was Ren Weishan who killed my father. So he has a strong motive. To avenge his father. Anyway, after I got back to my room, I kept thinking about how he killed. As I was thinking about it, I fell asleep. I fell asleep. Alright. Truly a group of heartless people. “Hollow people.” Alright. Next, let’s go to the lounge and discuss. Okay. Everyone, come quickly, there’s food. There’s food. That’s great. There are also steamed buns. I love steamed buns the most, thank you. You love eating my steamed buns the most. Anyway, everyone has a motive now. Yes. And they’re all very strong today. That’s right. Ren Weishan. He rounded up all of us islanders and locked us up. The old, weak, sick, and disabled were thrown into the sea. The young were imprisoned. Before my mother died, she told me I must take revenge. Your wife has given birth to two sons and a daughter for Ren Weishan. She was discovered while trying to escape. She has been dealt with and confirmed dead. I am D6 Extraction is done once a year The extraction quality is good Thanks to the assistance of the butler Niu Da Escaped in August 2019 Whereabouts unknown Must be found and executed as soon as possible My father received an invitation Inviting him to an island As the chief scientist One day my dad told me Illegal experiments were being conducted on the island December 22nd He forcibly made me drink poison It was this Ren Weishan who killed my dad As soon as he entered the room, his walkie-talkie went off Saying, “Boss, boss” I’m in Bai’s room Should we get rid of him? I thought about going back and forth between rooms To block this Ling Lingfa He ran away Then I watched him The records on this phone Baizhihua seemed to remember something again I must kill him To eliminate future trouble I just felt Maybe I should Also try to kill him in return I think part of it is for her He actually knew since he was a child What was happening on that island He actually knew since he was a child What was happening on that island That’s why he made up a story A wonderful thing was tricking you into rescuing me from that island. Xiao Ba, I hope when you read these words, you can forgive me for deceiving you. But he has a He has a chronic condition—amnesia. Yes. Yes, he’s known since he was a child. But his amnesia is episodic. That means he has flashbacks of certain moments. He paints pictures inspired by those flashes. They connect together. It’s overwhelming. But I’m not sure if that murderous intent arises during those flashbacks. I think we’ll definitely run into that fluorescent guy again soon. I think when Glowing Guy shows up his relationship with him might become clearer maybe something will come out of it Also, yesterday I saw two Glowing Guys I saw someone in a cloak at the restaurant but we only saw one But on the way back yesterday I saw two so it’s very possible a lot of things were done by the Glowing Person One thing is already confirmed The letter from my wife was given to me by the Glowing Person Light That person wearing the cloak So there are two people who have been experimented on Right Who else was harmed by Ren Weishan? Him, your dad Your dad It can’t be my dad The Glowing Person No, that’s impossible My dad is already dead Then who is the other one? And there’s another suspicious point. Why did two people see Ren Weishan leave early? Why did three people see Ren Weishan stay until the end? He went home. We ate for another forty minutes. Then we left. But when we looked back, the boss was still there. Where was he? Still sitting there eating. That’s right. Mine and his are exactly the same. Mine is exactly the same as his too. I saw that he was gone. I also saw he was gone. There’s a difference—when did he leave? Including that person from yesterday. There was actually a computer on his table. We haven’t had a chance to check it yet. It’s in 201. Let’s go take a look later. Is there any other evidence? Okay. Next, we’ll move on to the X confirmation phase. In a moment, we’ll switch from white to black. Let me speak first. There are five suspects now. If this person gets picked again, then they’re really too weak. He picked me as X. He definitely had to pick. How could someone be this weak? She’s talking about you. She means you. No, I’m just watching. Don’t interrupt, I’m watching everyone. Who is going to be the culprit today? Really too weak. Don’t pick me. Take a break. Everyone, find a place to rest. Okay. Break’s over. Look at her. Ba. Why do you seem like you want to say something but stop? It’s too obvious. I feel like she wanted to come in and scold someone, like, “Killer, I really look down on you.” But then she thought, if she said that herself… No. Now I think he’s very confident. What do you mean? No one picked her as X. Right, she means she’s not X. But we don’t know if that’s true. It’s also possible she’s really bold now. Now she’s starting to play these games with us. She wanted to say it as soon as she came in. I think no one picked her as X. No one picked you as X. Right. Let’s go search the second area. Yeah, hurry. Let’s talk as we walk. But there’s a problem. But there’s a problem. Go ahead. I’m X. I’m X. So who among you is the killer? Because each of you contacted me. Who among you is the real culprit? Each of you contacted me. I think I’m the culprit. You must also think you’re the culprit. I also think I’m the culprit. This is the most chaotic ever. Is there anyone who acts as X like this? Ren Weishan’s time of death can be determined. Between eleven and before twelve. Wait a moment. If this is the time of death, then none of us are suspects. That means our timeline is off. It definitely can’t be like this. How is that possible? The time we spent here might not be the actual time. Wait a second. I’m sure I’m not hallucinating. I’m also sure it’s not a hallucination. If this time is real, he died at this time. So we are the ones who killed him. Either it’s the dead Ren Weishan, or it’s not Ren Weishan. You two are confusing everyone. This is your wife. A is the black market. Abduction. A woman’s genes obtained through unconventional means. He’s actually alive. Why not just come in directly? The year 1980. She must have a reason she can’t do it. Had many children. For reproduction. To establish a personal exclusive gene bank. Your dad is human. Is your dad human? The small garden in front of the door. I hit with a flowerpot. Under the tree in the garden. A sneak attack. I was in the hallway. I used something heavy. I was in his room, arranging ornaments. No, how could his body move? The killer murdered him right in front of us. Each of you had a different time. Everyone saw the lightning. It happened when you were committing the murder. That flash of lightning appeared. A key clue. Does it directly identify the killer?
