Chapter 295.1 - Five Kills in One Night
Chapter 295.1 – Five Kills in One Night
It was dark and Shao Qingge received a prompt. [You are the dreamer. Please choose the target you want to sleepwalk tonight.]
Shao Qingge thought about it before answering, “No. 4.”
Last night, he dreamed of the No. 4 knight. The knight had driven out the No. 13 werewolf with a duel during the day and his identity exposed. Shao Qingge had been worried the werewolves would kill the knight at night so he gave the knight a shield.
Tonight, he would continue to shield No. 4. If he dreamed of the same person for two consecutive nights then they would die.
When speaking today, Liu Qiao, Qu Wanyue and Ye Qi all stood up to help Xiao Lou speak. In the eyes of other passersby, it was because No. 35 jumped forward and led to the counterattack of the witch, flower butterfly and grave keeper…
Meanwhile, Shao Qingge could see that his teammates were collectively maintaining Xiao Lou.
Obviously, his teammates had reached a consensus. Liu Qiao was the witch, Xiao Lou was the prophet and Shao Qingge was the dreamer. Long Sen and Old Mo were villagers. Then according to the team configuration, Yu Hanjiang, Qu Wanyue and Ye Qi must be werewolves.
Ye Qi’s grave keeper ability must be fake and the No. 35 grave keeper was real. He was right that No. 20 had died unjustly. In other words, it was likely Xiao Lou had chosen to stand with the wolves and help the wolves kill.
Since Professor Xiao wanted to help the werewolves, Shao Qingge had to do his part and kill the No. 4 knight.

At the same time, the werewolves’ voice channel.
No. 2 was pulled into the wolf pit and his chin almost fell off. “Um… why am I here? The sheriff is actually a werewolf?” He was wondering why he was in the wolf channel with the wolves and thought it was a bug.
No. 9 smiled. “No. 2, we killed you last night and infected you. You have become a werewolf and joined the wolves. You will fight alongside us.”
No, 2, “……”
It was terrible!
Not only was the No. 1 sheriff a werewolf but the No. 25 flower butterfly and No. 7 grave keeper who spoke for the prophet during the day were both werewolves! These wolves, weren’t their acting skills too great? The No. 2 wolf was just pulled into the wolf team and was dazed.
Yu Hanjiang told him, “No. 2, you aren’t familiar with the previous actions of the wolves. You can just vote with us during the day.”
No. 2 immediately promised. “I understand. I am also a werewolf from now on and I will follow you.”
Someone wondered, “Is No. 11 really a prophet? Why do I think he has been helping the wolves?”
“Yesterday, No. 10 also jumped out as a prophet. He said that 17 and 19 are wolves he checked. It is clear from our perspective that 17 and 19 aren’t our teammates. I’m a bit dizzy. What is going on.”
Then someone pointed a finger at Yu Hanjiang. “I think there is also a problem with the No. 1 wolf king. Do you know No. 11? Everyone, can we trust the wolf king so much? Are you letting your teammate complete the task, deliberately bringing the rhythm of the wolves to kill the members of other teams? Half of my team has been killed!”
This was No. 28 whose identity was the fire wolf. He said that half his team was killed so it was likely that four of the people who were killed or voted out in the last few days were his teammates. In that case, it was natural for him to be nervous.
Yu Hanjiang replied calmly. “You are right. I do know No.11 but I didn’t deliberately lead you to kill other team members. The No. 27 and 30 that I asked you to kill on the third day are my teammates.”
Hearing this, the other werewolves looked at each other. Actually letting everyone kill two teammates overnight?
Yu Hanjiang continued, “If you don’t believe me, other people can come forward and speak. Does anyone else know No. 27 and 30? Are they members of your team?”
It was silent. It was because No. 27 Long Sen and No. 30 Old Mo were indeed not members of their team. It was obviously true that the wolf king had killed his teammates.
No. 28 who questioned Yu Hanjiang just now gave a light cough. “Sorry, I just felt doubts. Then what do you mean? You are working with No. 11?”
Yu Hanjiang explained. “No. 11 is indeed the prophet. On the third and fourth days, he called on everyone to vote for a good person. The intention is obvious. He is showing his position. He wants to stand by the wolves and help us complete the task.”
Hearing this, the other wolf teammates were very surprised. The prophet was standing with the wolves?
Yu Hanjiang said, “Don’t forget. Everyone’s mission is different in this secret room. If everyone is focused on completing their own tasks then it is likely no one will be able to complete it in the end.”
Everyone carefully considered today’s speech and their brains finally turned.
The No. 15 girl said, “In other words, we should find a unified goal as soon as possible and everyone will cooperate to complete the task? Or else the good people camp will keep obstructing us from slaughtering the village while the celestial cards will keep saving people and our wolf team’s task won’t be completed?”
Blocking each other, dragging each other back until finally everyone was eliminated… A of Spades’ trap was very deep.
“The villagers’ mission is to expel all werewolves from the village.” Yu Hanjiang analyzed in a low voice. “It is only eight days and there are 12 werewolves. Even if one is thrown out accurately every day, how can the remaining four werewolves be solved? As long as one person lives to the end, the good people can’t drive out all the werewolves. The task of the villagers can only be completed in theory and it is too difficult in practice.”
The demon hunter had to accurately hit the werewolves at night and the witch had to poison a werewolf, which couldn’t be repeated. As long as one of the 12 werewolves hid deeply, the villagers’ mission would fail. Moreover, the werewolves could vote with each other and cover each other. The villagers didn’t know each other’s identities and their hearts weren’t aligned. They might not be able to vote for the werewolves during the day.
The villagers could only achieve the perfect ending if the director wrote the script in advance.
Yu Hanjiang followed up. “Think carefully. The first time you entered the secret room, there was a reminder in your floating box. As long as the wolves slaughter the village, it is a perfect clearance. Don’t you want the rewards for a perfect clearance?
Yes, a perfect clearance. Yu Hanjiang’s words made the werewolves come to a realization.
No. 28 exclaimed, “So the mission of the villagers is almost impossible to complete while the mission of the celestials is relatively simple but isn’t perfect. Only the werewolves mission is considered a perfect clearance?”
The No. 15 girl added, “Us wolves can communicate with each other by voice chat at night. We can cooperate and vote as a group. So everyone should choose the mission of the werewolves and fight for the perfect clearance?”
Yu Hanjiang nodded. “There are already some people who have understood this, including the No. 11 prophet and No. 18 witch. Up to now, the No. 18 witch hasn’t poisoned any werewolves. This is a gesture.”
The wolves were finally convinced of Yu Hanjiang’s theory. There was an S-grade card given as a reward for a perfect clearance. Who didn’t want it? Now there was a chance to get a perfect clearance. It was natural to work together.
No. 28 had just been questioning Yu Hanjiang. At this time, he changed his attitude. “Everyone, listen to the command of the wolf king. Who should we kill next?”
“Someone just asked why No. 10 suddenly claimed to be the prophet. It is very simple. He is the prophet of the werewolves, the hidden gargoyle. He appeared at this time, sacrificing himself to give his teammates a knife. He said that 17 and 19 are werewolves, which actually means they are key celestial cards he had checked. We should give priority to handling them.”
No. 15 agreed. “I thought No. 10 was the gargoyle when he jumped out. His claim to be the prophet was too false. He didn’t explain at all and just pointed to 17 and 19. I think the two he pointed out are likely to have key celestial cards such as the guard, dreamer or demon hunter.”
The gargoyle could find out the specific identity. For the previous three days, he had been hiding in the dark to check people silently. Now he jumped out on the fourth day. He must’ve found a key card.
The witch and prophet had already identified themselves. The key cards he found were likely powerful cards with protection and killing skills such as the guard, dreamer or demon hunter.
Yu Hanjiang simply said, “So we won’t waste our gargoyle teammate’s sacrifice. We will kill 17 and 19 tonight. Do you have any opinions?”
No one objected. The wolves’ knife pointed at No. 17 and No. 19.

At the same time, Liu Qiao received a prompt. [No. 17 and No. 19 were killed tonight. Do you want to use the antidote?]
“No.”
[Do you want to use the poison?]
Liu Qiao thought about it. “Yes, poison No. 32.”
In her analysis about why the demon hunter suddenly killed No. 33, Liu Qiao used the probability theory to calculate that there must be a wolf in the 30-36 section. Four of them were out. The demon hunter killed 33 and didn’t kill 32. Obviously, the demon hunter was a teammate with 32 and confirmed the identity of the teammate as friendly.
Liu Qiao was now standing with the wolves so she had to try her best to help the wolves kill the good people. If she poisoned No. 32 then she could help the wolves build their numerical advantage.
***
It was dawn.
[Bloody Night Watch, Round 5: Day]
[The ones who died last night were No. 4, No. 10, No. 14, No. 19 and No. 32.]
Everyone was shocked to see this. The wolves were surprised because they obviously killed 17 and 19. Why didn’t 17 die? The good people were surprised. How did five people die last night? Wasn’t five kills too fierce?
Yu Hanjiang thought it over and quickly figured it out.
17 should be the bewitcher celestial card. The bewitcher could appoint a target at will at night. If they were killed, the target they appointed would die on their behalf. In other words, a ghost was chosen to replace the bewitcher. Out of the five people who died, one of them must’ve been chosen by No. 17 to replace him.
No. 10 should be killed by the demon hunter. Out of the remaining two, it was likely that Liu Qiao used poison? He just didn’t know which one Liu Qiao poisoned.
Yu Hanjiang’s eyes swept over the group. There were only 17 players still alive. He once again chose to speak counterclockwise. 30~36 were all dead and 29 was the first to speak.
No. 29 seriously analyzed it. “Five people died last night. I think No. 10 was killed by the demon hunter. His claim yesterday about being the prophet was too fake. Obviously, he was likely to be the wolf team’s prophet i.e. the gargoyle. Therefore, the demon hunter killed him last night. As for the remaining four… how can so many people die? I think I should listen to the witch.”
No. 28 said, “The speech next to me is rather one-sided. I want to add that No. 10 might’ve been shot to death by the demon hunter or poisoned by the witch. After all, his actions yesterday were too strange. He was obviously a wolf. The demon hunter or witch likely dealt with him last night. As for how the remaining four died, I am also a bit confused. I will let everyone analyze it.”
The next to speak was No. 25 Qu Wanyue. Her voice was solemn. “I am the flower butterfly and I didn’t activate my skill last night. It is because I couldn’t think of anyone who seemed to be a wolf. I was worried that if I hugged the wrong person, the celestial cards couldn’t be used. I didn’t expect so many deaths last night… Just now, the previous two people have analyzed that No. 10 was killed by a celestial card. This should be the consensus. There are four people remaining. I need to wait for the witch’s report from last night to determine what happened.”
Qu Wanyue finished her speech and the No. 24 young man stood up. His eyes were slightly narrowed and there was an innocent smile on his face as he spoke loudly, “At present, it is recognized that No. 10 was killed by a celestial card, right? I agree with this inference. After all, his actions yesterday were so weird that he almost wrote the word ‘werewolf’ on his forehead. He was either hit by the demon hunter’s arrow or the witch’s poison. As for how the remaining four died? I’m here to clarify your confusion.”
The teenager paused and looked around at everyone before declaring earnestly, “I am Cupid. In fact, on the first night of the game, I connected numbers 4 and 14, making them a couple. So if the wolves killed No. 4 or 14 then the other person will die. That is why there were so many deaths last night.”
