The next second, Lin Sizhi realized they were back in the community hall.
A few gasps instantly sounded by their ear.
"What happened!"
"So much blood! Someone come and help!"
"How did this happen, wait, where's Uncle Ding? Where is Uncle Ding?"
The community hall was in chaos.
Lin Sizhi and Cao Haichuan had participated in the game as spectators, so they were unharmed and safe.
In contrast, Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin were in equally bad shape.
Both had wounds on their shoulders where they had been pierced by the farmer's walking mechanism, and although the bleeding had been initially stopped, it still looked terrifying.
Especially after taking off their jackets, the dense, bloody puncture wounds were even more horrifying to look at.
Wang Yongxin also had shocking bloody marks on his hands and neck.
Everyone scrambled to help, some helping Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin to sit down, others running to the vending machine to see if there were any hemostatic drugs or bandages for dressing wounds.
Fu Chen, as he did last time, immediately did a headcount and quickly discovered that Ding Wenqiang was not in the hall.
Instead, there was a lone visa wristband on the floor.
A bad feeling arose in Fu Chen's heart, he slowly bent down to pick up the wristband and found Ding Wenqiang's name written on it.
Not only that, but the originally smooth wristband was now covered in cracks, as if it had been forcibly scrapped.
The large screen began to broadcast the final results of this game.
[Now announcing the final visa time acquisition for Community 17 in 'King's Judgment'.]
[No. 4 Cao Haichuan: 76000]
[No. 5 Cai Zhiyuan: 2450]
[No. 6 Wang Yongxin: 25000]
[No. 10 Ding Wenqiang: Deported]
[No. 12 Lin Sizhi: 44000]
[5% of the above visa time will be contributed to the community security fund according to community rules, and the remaining visa time will be credited to each player's visa.]
Cao Haichuan found a random chair and slowly sat down, his heart heavy upon seeing the results.
Because he had watched the entire game as a spectator, he knew that the chips Ding Wenqiang had actually accumulated in the game had exceeded one hundred thousand.
Even without considering the 500,000 bad check given by the spectators who bet on the king's side at the end, this was already a very exaggerated number.
If Ding Wenqiang had been able to return safely, this amount of visa time would have been enough for him to live peacefully for more than two months.
But with Ding Wenqiang's death in the game, all this visa time was taken away by the copycat who designed the game.
Qin Yao and Yang Yuting had just gone to the vending machine and now came jogging back.
"There are first-aid kits in the vending machine, but they cost 499 each, the community security fund doesn't have enough money."
Wang Yongxin and Cai Zhiyuan struggled to get up, "It's fine, we'll buy them ourselves."
The two of them each went to a vending machine and bought a first-aid kit.
Although supplies purchased with the community security fund could be freely circulated and used among players, because the initial quota was only 80 minutes per person per day, it couldn't cover such a first-aid kit.
They could only pay for it out of their own pockets.
After buying them, Wang Yongxin and Cai Zhiyuan were helped back to the rest area in the hall to sit down.
The two first-aid kits were opened.
The contents were very complete, with all sorts of medical supplies like medical alcohol, iodophor, hydrogen peroxide, cotton swabs, scissors, adhesive bandages, medical tape, and bandages.
There were also various common drugs like painkillers, anti-allergy medication, and antibacterial drugs.
Looking at the dazzling array of various medicines, Yang Yuting was a bit at a loss, "These things... who knows how to use them?"
Cao Haichuan picked up the medical alcohol, "I'll do it."
As a criminal investigation police officer, although Cao Haichuan's technique was a bit rough, it was generally fine.
First, disinfect the wounds, then bandage them, and finally take some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medication.
Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin grimaced in pain from the ordeal, but fortunately, Cao Haichuan's hands were relatively fast, so it was only a short burst of pain.
After drinking some water, the two were helped back to their rooms to rest.
The others began to tidy up, labeling the two first-aid kits with Cai Zhiyuan's and Wang Yongxin's names to avoid mix-ups, and then properly put them away.
Only after everything was done could they finally catch their breath.
"Looks like we'll have to propose another motion to allocate a sum of money from the community security fund specifically for purchasing medical supplies.
"Otherwise, we'll have to buy medical kits ourselves every time, which is not only expensive but also prone to waste," Fu Chen said as he jotted it down in his notebook to prevent himself from forgetting.
Li Renshu looked at Cao Haichuan, "The matter of buying medical supplies isn't too urgent, we can talk about it later. Officer Cao, what exactly happened in the game?"
It was chaotic right after the game ended, and with Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin both injured, it was impossible for everyone to immediately start discussing the details of the game.
Now that things had temporarily settled down, everyone was becoming curious about what had happened inside the game.
Cao Haichuan sighed silently, "It's a long story, I'm afraid I can't explain it clearly in just a few words.
"Not everyone is here right now, let's wait until tonight.
"Once Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin have rested, and everyone is present, we can do a detailed review."
Li Renshu thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, tonight it is."
Cao Haichuan stood up wearily, although he had earned the most visa time in this game out of everyone in Community 17, he actually knew he had just been carried to victory.
Throughout the entire game, he was filled with a sense of powerlessness.
This also made him feel even more guilty.
Cao Haichuan left the hall and went to the outdoor open area, silently lighting a cigarette.
...
After dinner, the atmosphere in the hall of Community 17 was a bit somber.
Everyone sat around the long table, their expressions varied.
Su Xiucen was clearly still having a hard time accepting the reality, their eyes red and swollen from crying.
They had just managed to solve Ding Wenqiang's food problem with the community security fund, but who would have thought that they would suddenly be separated by death.
The others were also somewhat mournful.
Ding Wenqiang's cracked wristband was also placed at an empty spot on the long table.
Cao Haichuan looked at the detailed rules of 'King's Judgment' on the big screen and calmed his emotions slightly.
"Let me first recount the entire process of the game.
"In this game, only 5 people were called 'sinners' and had to personally participate in the judgment game. There were 10 of us who voluntarily signed up to enter, called 'spectators', who didn't need to participate personally but also found it difficult to interfere with the actions on the field.
"According to my number, I was spectator No. 9."
Officer Cao's memory was still very good, although the big screen only showed the game rules and not the specific game process, he still did his best to explain the entire game clearly.
After listening to Officer Cao's account of the entire game, everyone fell silent.
Having spoken for so long in one go, Cao Haichuan was also a bit tired, he sat back down in his seat and took a sip of water.
"Anyway, that's the whole process of the game. I don't know where would be a good place to start the review."
Su Xiucen wiped the tears from the corner of their eyes and looked at Cai Zhiyuan and Wang Yongxin.
"I just want to ask one question.
"You two, who cast the execution vote?"
