There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game

``` Entering the world of the Scripted Murder Game isn't scary. Playing the role of the murderer is still doable. Playing the role of the victim is fine. Playing the role of a girl is manageable. Even if you have to deal with dark, strange monsters, and accidentally get tainted by them, it's no big deal. Shuo looked at the script in his hand and felt that he could still play the part! … But after adding a bunch of teammates with mental issues, he felt that he couldn't go on acting. This script is a bit off too! Shuo, "Can we not have a murderer, a victim, a girl, or psychos, and just have a normal person?" … —————— 【Non-traditional Scripted Murder Mystery Game】【Attention: The plot will gradually shift from normal to bizarre, focusing on tasks. Each Scripted Murder Game script is original, not fan-made. Non-original scripts will be indicated.】【Ensemble cast, with undercovers, role-playing, disguises, no female lead.】 ```

This book has something in common with the reincarnation that the heroes are created with efforts to stand in for beings from mythology. This is the one of the best titles in mystery fiction. they're there to be heroes... and villains.

Master, please teach me again.

After transmigrating to the world of immortal cultivation, Lin Xiu entered the Green Cloud Dao Sect, the leader of the five great immortal sects. He thought that he would open the path of immortal cultivation, but he fell into deep thought as he looked at the entrance examination. " The first question: If you cause trouble outside, it might affect the sect's reputation. How would you sever your relationship with the sect and shift the blame to the other four immortal sects?" " Second question: If the disciples of the other four immortal sects killed the demonic path and obtained extremely high prestige, how could they make others mistake them as disciples of the Green Cloud Dao Sect and attribute all the prestige to the sect?" " Third question: If you were a spy sent by a sect to the other four immortal sects, and you went to secretly learn peerless martial arts but were discovered, how would you safely bring the martial arts back?" "The above are all ifs. Please answer boldly." One day, in the world of the Nine Prefectures, resentful cultivators gathered at the Green Cloud Daoist Sect's mountain gate and asked them to hand over the spy who had secretly learned. "Do you know who the spy is?" Big Sister asked Lin Xiu. "Is there anyone in our sect who isn't?" Lin Xiu replied in a daze. Big Sister nodded, indicating that it was true. ...... [Le Ziren][Big Brain][Wulitou] This book is also known as " About the matter of me breaking down in my elder studies and being sent to other sects as a spy "," I really didn't steal it, you guys taught it voluntarily ", and " I became the number one spy with my heaven-defying comprehension ".
