Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 864: Flaws in the Language

After the military residence, it was naturally another "neutral player" who seemed to have no contact with anyone who chose to start his statement.

"Everyone, my hobbies are board games and card games," Fern said, resting his chin on his hand. "If you ask me to start... I don't know where to begin right now, so feel free to ask anything you want to know."

"Do you generally prefer German or American types?"

Junzhai looked at Fern and asked.

"It's both. If I'm carpooling with some unfamiliar people or if a friend brings his new friend and needs an icebreaker, I'd tend to start with the American style. If it's with regular friends... I still prefer to spend time with the German style."

Fern answered casually.

Fu Luo touched his chin and said, "It seems that you are the type who would go to offline board game stores?"

"Of course, although some of my rich friends have a collection of genuine board games at home... I feel embarrassed to bother them all the time. Going to a board game store doesn't cost much, and you get group vouchers and drinks, and there are professional DMs," Fern said seriously. "Although many board game stores these days are not very professional and mainly rely on hosting parties with script-killing and werewolf-killing games to generate revenue, they are not very friendly to dedicated board game enthusiasts like us... However, if you join a few hardcore groups online, you can always find a good place."

Fu Luo pondered for a moment and asked, "Where are you from?"

This is a question that seems unrelated to what Fern has answered so far.

"I don't really want you to know where I was born. As for where I live now, I'm always traveling... At the moment, I can actually be considered a nomad."

As Fen spoke, Fu Luo narrowed his eyes.

"That's strange. Although I personally have no interest in board games, there are actually quite a few board game enthusiasts among mystery fans, so I have a vague understanding of the ecology of this group. For board game enthusiasts, it's actually rare to find a hobby community that emphasizes 'geopolitical' and 'regional' interests."

"If you travel a lot, it's hard to enjoy board games... If you want to enjoy board games long-term, you should settle down in a first-tier or new first-tier city."

Fu Luo's words became sharper as he spoke: "But you said that you actually have a group of 'regular friends', and even a group of 'new friends' who might be joined by others - this doesn't match your current living situation."

"At least judging from your current statement, there are contradictions."

Fern was questioned by Fu Luo, but remained calm and said, "What's inconsistent with this? Can't I just go to a place and immediately join the local circle?"

"Besides, there are many different types of living abroad. I tend to stay in a city for one to two years, which is enough time for me to initially integrate into the local board game community."

"Besides, it's not like I won't return to that city to reconnect with my old friends."

As Fen spoke, Fu Luo narrowed his eyes.

"It's still very suspicious... but it's not enough to confirm that you are the one who was replaced."

"I only know that you must have been lying to me, or hiding some crucial information... which is why your words seem so inconsistent."

Fu Luo said this, but Jue didn't give in.

"I simply answered your questions truthfully. If you feel I'm deceiving you... I can only say that it's probably because my lifestyle is too peculiar, perhaps beyond your comprehension, Great Detective."

"Anyway... let's listen to what others have to say first."

As Fen spoke, Fu Luo nodded and looked at the people around him.

"Katie, let's start with you here."

Fu Luo said this and Katie nodded.

"As you can see, I'm from Haicheng, a teacher by profession, and currently teach professional courses at a renowned university there," Katie said confidently. "So, my hobbies are quite refined. I'm quite knowledgeable in opera, painting, and various classical arts. I also enjoy international cuisine, but I'm more focused on keeping in shape, so I only dabble in it briefly."

"Last weekend, I went to see a Monet exhibition. Monet is a painter I like very much. His works can really touch people's emotions."

There was a brief silence after Katie finished speaking.

She looked around in surprise: "Don't you have anything you want to ask?"

“I don’t know much about these areas,” Fu Luo muttered, unable to suppress his Henan accent. “These are my blind spots.”

Wang Jiu also sighed: "Really, how did the 'Player Mutual Aid Association' become like this now?"

Nineteen thought for a long time before asking, "Which Monet painting in that exhibition left the deepest impression on you?"

"Each one moved me in a different way, but the one that moved me the most was the 'Water Lilies' series... The most famous works don't live up to their reputation," Katie said, a fascinated look on her face. "Those culminations of the masterpiece are truly extraordinary and moving... Monet's colors and brushstrokes have a dreamlike, tangible yet hazy beauty. The 'Water Lilies' series makes you feel as if you've dreamed a romantic French dream, by the window and in the garden on a midsummer night. Through its frame, you feel as if you're inhabiting Monet's eyes, admiring those beautiful water lilies."

As Katie spoke, a thoughtful expression appeared on Nineteen's face: "Hmm...Is that so..."

At this time, Lin Yu raised his hand and looked at Katie: "How much is the ticket for your exhibition?"

Katie looked at Lin Yu in surprise, then reacted.

“The organizer is a friend of a friend, so the ticket was given to me.”

"Oh, I see. If I want to buy it, how much does it cost?"

Lin Yu asked again.

Katie's expression was clearly uncomfortable. "Talking about money at an exhibition like this is so vulgar. We don't usually talk about that... Every painting here is priceless. Monet's 'Water Lilies' recently sold for $5900 million... The artistic value is what's important!"

Lin Yu said stubbornly: "Yes, so I want to go in and experience these tens of millions of dollars of art value, how much does it cost."

Katie looked at Lin Yu and seemed unwilling to answer this question.

But she turned her head and looked at Fu Luo's equally curious eyes, then spoke reluctantly.

"Anyway... it's not particularly expensive. After all, the organizers have plenty of money. They just want more people to experience the charm of Impressionist paintings..."

"How much is it?"

"It seems... I bought the ticket online and it was priced at 169 yuan."
