Reading: Killing Game

Lei Jun's collection of short stories

Five games – every game is a killer!

Game (1) Murder Game - The game is "Please close your eyes when it's dark", a real murder with a virtual plot! Typical of this format reasoning, the trick is very clever, the ending has a reversal, a personal favorite.

Game (2) Murder Haunted House Hide and Seek - The game is "hide and seek", inadvertently playing a hide and seek with the murderer! The male protagonist, Xia Ya, recalls an adventure with his companions in an old mansion in his hometown as a child. I thought it was a warm and beautiful memory, but in the midst of careful consideration, I suddenly realized! He and his companions truly witnessed a brutal murder! The three or four lines at the end of the novel are the most shocking, making people not want to watch it a second time!

Game (3) Killing CHESS - The game is "chess", and the information left by the victim is inextricably linked to chess! An old man who loved to play chess let the murderer be poisoned on the spot, and before he died, he tried his last bit of strength to bite his finger. What people did not expect was that the information left by the deceased misled the police and the detective equation, making them wrong again and again, until the equation combined the blood of the deceased's finger with the chess pieces, and the murderer was revealed!

Game (4) Murder Room Escape - The game is "Room Escape", and even the perfect room killing requires the addition of accidental factors! Several colleagues from the same company go to play escape room together, and everyone is in a separate room to see who has the fastest escape time! The result is a "cup"! One of them died in the Chamber of Secrets! I personally think this is an anti-"chamber of mystery" mystery novel! The author uses the mouth of the detective equation to tell the reader that there is no such thing as a truly perfect secret room, and that the addition of some accidental factors has instead contributed to a seemingly perfect murder!

Game (5) Killing ONLINE – The game is an "online game", the highly condemned online game and the relationship between real death! The author's last one is very special, and the plot in the novel is very time-sensitive when combined with several real negative news at the moment. This somewhat expresses a sense of social responsibility from the author, who is showing the reader the power of his words!
