Wei Yinzhang thought seriously for a moment, then nodded.
"Yes, what you say also makes sense. Perhaps because I myself am a God's Imitator with an advantageous identity, a 'kind tiger,' I can't feel this threat.
"Have you thought of a method?"
Cao Haichuan sighed silently, "Actually, I do have a suspect.
"But there's no way to go further.
"Because Li Renshu firmly opposes this, and others will also very likely not support it."
Wei Yinzhang thought for a moment, "But this community isn't an autocratic community. Li Renshu's power is far from reaching that level.
"If you really want to continue investigating, you could even consider directly allying with Wang Yongxin.
"If you two take the lead, and then stimulate ordinary players' fear of God's Imitators a bit, Li Renshu could only concede. There would be no other choice.
Cao Haichuan exhaled a puff of smoke and remained silent for a long time.
"But I can't do that. I don't have the talent for governing a community, and I don't want to become the community's leader."
Wei Yinzhang thought for a moment, "I actually think these matters can be taken slowly. At least the other people in the community still recognize you sufficiently, right?"
Cao Haichuan shook his head and explained, "It's not about how others view me, but that I'm very clear I'm not suitable.
"I've been a police officer for so many years and solved quite a few cases, but I'm not like some colleagues who, even when superiors have already demanded the case be closed, still cling to finding the truth and even pursue it themselves for over ten years.
"I don't have such strong convictions. I've always unconditionally executed superiors' decisions, even when those decisions appeared wrong.
"Because I myself am not someone good at making decisions. I just want to do my own job well.
"So after coming to Community 17, I've also had this attitude.
"Professional matters like community construction can be left to Li Renshu and others.
"As for me, I just want to continue my old profession, try my best to find God's Imitators, find potential threats that might exist in the community.
"In the community or in games, protect other players' safety.
"If those responsible for community construction believe continuing to investigate isn't necessary, then I also won't insist too much."
Wei Yinzhang was silent for a moment, "Yes, this is also good.
"Each with their own division of labor, each performing their duty. Only then can the community complement each other's strengths and weaknesses and have more cohesion."
Cao Haichuan asked again, "By the way, regarding the first judgment game after 'Blood Poker,' do you still remember the invitation you received then? Was it the same invitation as 'King's Judgment'?"
Wei Yinzhang shook her head, "No, the invitation I received was for another case, and it wasn't selected."
Cao Haichuan asked again, "Do you remember if there was any difference between that invitation and the subsequent judgment game invitations?"
Wei Yinzhang tried hard to recall, "Difference...
"After all, it was a relatively early judgment game, so there weren't that many choices. Although the Gallery said it would simultaneously conduct several different judgment games, each God's Imitator should have only been assigned one case.
"The case I was assigned seemed to have 6 criminals, but not all the criminals' offenses were written out.
"It seems only 3 were written."
Cao Haichuan fell into thought, "Why?"
Wei Yinzhang shook her head, "I don't know. Perhaps the Gallery did it deliberately, hiding some information to increase the difficulty for God's Imitators designing games?
"When the Gallery releases judgment tasks, there are generally two methods.
"One is releasing by case, one is releasing by similar offenses.
"Sometimes it's mixed, letting God's Imitators choose themselves.
"If released by case, certain information might be hidden."
Cao Haichuan asked again, "Is there any pattern to the hidden information? Hidden according to community? Or hidden according to severity of offense?"
Wei Yinzhang thought carefully, "I didn't notice any pattern."
Cao Haichuan temporarily had nothing else to ask. He just silently looked at what he had previously researched, falling into deep thought.
In the evening, the community's players arranged a welcome dinner to welcome Wei Yinzhang's addition.
If the previous welcome dinners still had some special sense of ceremony, then with the passage of time, this kind of thing had also become increasingly commonplace, increasingly lacking special meaning.
More than anything, it was just finding a reason to have a good feast.
Although players in the community came and went, and deaths would still occur, the vast majority had long since gotten used to it.
After dinner, Lin Sizhi returned to his room and discovered new information had already appeared on his computer. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novel{f}ire.net
[As you wished, the Gallery is undergoing slow changes.]
[But everything won't always go as you wish so easily.]
[You and some God's Imitators have already expressed your positions to the Gallery. Similarly, other God's Imitators have also expressed their positions to the Gallery.]
[Next is the opponent's turn.]
[This game invitation is only open to certain God's Imitators. The game theme is 'Elimination' and 'Judgment.']
[In three days, the game officially begins.]
[Please wait patiently.]
Seeing this information, Lin Sizhi was stunned because this time the Gallery didn't send out any invitation.
More accurately, this invitation was sent to certain specific God's Imitators. The Gallery didn't give all God's Imitators the opportunity for free competition.
Lin Sizhi seriously considered the meaning of this information, then closed the computer.
Since it was the opponent's turn, all he could do now was wait.
The next morning, Lin Sizhi got up and ate breakfast as usual, but discovered some people had already gathered in the hall, showing worried expressions.
Soon, everyone else also arrived.
After everyone finished breakfast, Li Renshu finally said, "Come over for a moment. Yinzhang has a very important matter to inform everyone."
The others had long since realized something was wrong with the atmosphere and hurriedly sat properly around the long table.
Yang Yuting asked with some worry, "Is it a new judgment game? Who's being judged? Can this be said?"
The last 'Fool's Game' was a screening-type game. According to the Gallery's pattern, what came next would very likely be another new judgment game.
If it were before, even if everyone had this premonition, they could only worry fearfully because they fundamentally didn't know who specifically would be judged.
But now it was different. According to previous discussions, Wei Yinzhang might be able to reveal some information to the player about to be judged.
Even if it was just a name in advance, it could still have an effect. However, Wei Yinzhang neither shook her head nor nodded.
She was silent for a while, then said, "From the type, it's not a judgment-type game.
"But... it might be worse than a judgment-type game."
