"Please don't be angry, ma'am. I never said that Toke was killed by Miss Alice." Ran Ran attacked as soon as he opened his mouth, playing with other people's emotions like a cat playing with a was so angry that she almost smoked, "You clearly said that!" Ran Ran had a reason, "Everyone should remember the situation at that time. I just asked Miss Alice whether she had been to the forbidden garden. Later, Miss Alice needed me to provide a motive for murder, so I provided her with ideas." "Provide ideas?" Shen Yin sneered, "That sounds nice! It's clearly a false accusation!" Ran Ran smiled immediately, "I'm not making false accusations. I'm just emphasizing that from the beginning to the end we can only be sure of one thing..." "Miss Alice really has been to the forbidden garden." "Other matters, such as the relationship between Miss Alice and the deceased Toke, and the relationship between Miss Alice and Toke's death, cannot be concluded at will." Shen Yin sneered heavily. This Elizabeth was just saying nice things and not making arbitrary conclusions? She was the first person to make arbitrary conclusions! If the interface didn't clearly show 1/5, she would really believe her lies! Now that things have come to this point, there is no point in her denying it. Under the trap of Ranran's words, she could only choose one between [wandering into the forbidden garden] and [going to the forbidden garden with a purpose]. Shen Yin said confidently: "Yes, I did go there. Are you going to kill me for this?" Ranran smiled with satisfaction. Human beings always have an inertia of compromise in many things.
When a bad situation arises, people will try every possible way to save themselves. But when a bad situation and a worse situation appear, people will retreat and tend to submit and accept the bad situation. It can't get any worse, right? Wandering around and ending up at the Forbidden Garden would certainly arouse less suspicion than going there with a purpose. Shen Yin knew which one to choose without even having to think about it. "Miss Alice is a little too radical, but thank you for your cooperation. I believe that in any era, uncovering the truth requires witness testimony." Ran Ran said sincerely: "As someone who has been to the crime scene, Miss Alice, your words are very important in uncovering the truth." Shen Yin snorted disdainfully, "I won't change my attitude just because of your words. I still hate you very much." "I will never be happy because of your praise!" Ranran was a little amused and helpless. She couldn't help but start to speculate the mental age of the player in Alice's body. At the same time she was glad that Alice was not foolishly happy, for she was about to set her up again. "So may I ask Miss Alice why you want to go to the forbidden garden?" Shen Yin looked at Ran Ran with an idiotic look in her eyes, "Didn't I just say that? I was just wandering around, and then I got here." Ran Ran smiled, "First of all, what we have been arguing about just now is whether you have been to the forbidden garden, not how you got there." "Is there any difference between the two?!" Shen Yin could hardly stand such a long-winded conversation. Ranran looked at her impatient look and felt even more satisfied. What she needed was the unwillingness to listen and the irritable and depressed mood. If she didn't do that, how could she confuse people? "Of course there is a difference." Ran Ran's smile deepened. "If you were here for a stroll, Miss Alice, then please tell me your route and what you saw along the way." As soon as Shen Yin opened her mouth, Ran Ran stopped her from talking, "Please don't use the same lame excuse as before." "It was so dark that I couldn't see anything around me. I don't want to refute you a second time." Ran Ran looked into Shen Yin's eyes calmly, "If you couldn't see anything clearly along the way, how did you know that you had indeed gone to the forbidden garden?" Shen Yin didn't react for a long time. She was really confused by the logic. The character Elizabeth... seemed to be refuting her with her conclusion? ! She had used a verbal trap to force her to say "she had been to the forbidden garden", and now she could actually set another verbal trap based on this sentence? !
Shenyin's head seemed to be a mess. She seemed to have walked into the trap set by Elizabeth for her? "…So I didn't go to the forbidden garden?" Ran Ran smiled, looking extremely gentle, "How can you be sure that you really didn't go? After all, it's pitch black and you can't see your surroundings clearly, right?" Shen Yin tried to refute: "…Then I went, that's right! I went, and the surroundings were not completely dark, I could see!" Ran Ran's smile remained unchanged. "Then please tell me what you saw along the way. Miss Alice must have been strolling around in a very leisurely mood, so she should not be unable to remember what she saw." Shen Yin became dazed, "...I...I don't remember! Is it okay if I just don't remember?!" After she said that, there was almost only dullness on her face. Ran Ran smiled sincerely, "Dear Miss Alice, let me help you sort it out." "You can see your surroundings clearly, so you know you have been to the forbidden garden, but you don't remember other people or things along the way..." "Is that right?" Shen Yin nodded in a trance. Ran Ran said calmly: "This is reasonable." Zhong Ning was almost as dizzy as Shen Yin, "Does it make sense? It doesn't make sense. I can see the forbidden garden clearly but I can't see the other scenery along the way. I don't even know which road I'm taking..." "This is totally irrational!" Ran Ran smiled faintly, "It's reasonable, as long as Miss Alice meets one condition..." "She's not hanging around at all." "From the beginning to the end, strolling around was the biggest lie Miss Alice told." Ran Ran said slowly, "She went to the forbidden garden with a purpose." "That's all it makes sense." Everyone seemed to understand, and Ran Ran continued, "Because she had a purpose, Miss Alice was even in a very tense situation and left everyone after dinner." "She paid no attention to anything along the way. She was only thinking about her destination - the Forbidden Garden." "I guess her pace must have been restrained and tense, because she not only had to get to the forbidden garden in a short time, but also had to avoid the servants scattered throughout the castle along the way." "Don't let the servants notice anything unusual. As for what they saw during this process..." Ran Ran smiled and looked at Shen Yin, "Miss Alice, when you think back now, I'm afraid you can only remember the faces of the servants that flashed by, and the green bushes in the corner of your sight." Shen Yin thought about what Ran Ran said, and it was true! "You..." The more Shen Yin thought about it, the more she felt cold sweat on her back. She was obviously the one with psychic abilities, wasn't she? This person... this Elizabeth seemed to be able to read her mind! "Miss Alice was in a hurry and was so focused on avoiding the castle servants that she would forget what she saw even though she could see it clearly." Zhong Ning suddenly realized, "...Indeed, this does make sense..." Shen Yin came back to her senses from Ranran's smile in a trance, and suddenly realized that there were never two choices! Elizabeth never asked her to choose between "wandering into the forbidden garden" and "going to the forbidden garden with a purpose". At the beginning, she could only obey her wishes and move towards the latter! She never gave her a choice! (End of this chapter)
