Dice In The Darkness: Cthulhu Calls

Chapter 314: Prophecy Outcome (Additional Update)

As Liu Xing’s voice fell silent, Panda Pig couldn’t help but shake his head with a mocking tone. He said, "Ryuusei, you’re being a bit too naive. The police in the Island Nation these days tend to adopt a ’better to do less than more’ attitude. Even in cases where over a dozen people have gone missing at once, if they can’t gather enough information quickly, they’ll find various reasons to close the case."

"Moreover, the interpersonal relationships in the Island Nation have become quite cold. I believe most of you here, except perhaps Zhang Jingxu, know this. Even neighbors who live next door may only see each other a few times a year and exchange greetings even less frequently. So, in cases of an entire family disappearing, it’s rare for neighbors to report it. If the family isn’t closely connected with relatives, it might take about a year before anyone notices and reports it."

Listening to Panda Pig’s words, Liu Xing felt that Panda Pig had a story behind him, and that "disappearance of over a dozen people" probably came from a previous module he had been a part of.

"Panda Pig, you’re being a bit too absolute in your judgment. I know many responsible policemen," Miyako Goudong said, furrowing his brow.

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, sensing that "Miyako Goudong" and "Panda Pig" probably didn’t get along well, as they tended to clash whenever they spoke.

To prevent a possible argument between Miyako Goudong and Panda Pig, Zhang Jingxu quickly spoke up, "Alright, let’s not dwell on whether the Island Nation police are responsible or not. After all, that’s not our main focus. What matters now is what we should do next. If we want to confirm Liu Xing’s hypothesis, we just need to pay attention to the faces of Fisher’s Village residents. I remember that Yamashita Kojiro had distinctive facial features. I believe that if he appears in front of me, I’ll be able to recognize him."

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile, "You’re right. Let’s not get bogged down in details for now. Our priority should be finding people, as we have quite a few individuals we need to locate. First is Inoue Haruto, and our chances of escaping depend on him. Second is Yamashita Kojiro. If we can find him, it would prove that Matsui Ichiro isn’t as swift in his actions as we thought. We might have some time if we break the magic array on the window frames. Lastly, it’s up to Miyako Goudong. We hope you can recognize those three villagers, so we can establish contact with them."

Panda Pig and Miyako Goudong, persuaded to cooperate, both nodded, but Liu Xing could still sense their mutual antipathy.

However, it didn’t matter as long as the players didn’t generate conflicts. "Panda Pig" and "Miyako Goudong" wouldn’t cause any trouble.

Just then, the sound of dice hitting the ground interrupted the conversation. It seemed that Ling Ishikawa, who had been muttering incantations on the side, had finally completed the Prophecy Art.

Unfortunately, the Prophecy Art had no visible effects. In Liu Xing’s opinion, even though Ling Ishikawa’s version of Prophecy Art was only a "0.1 test version," it should still have some future-seeing abilities. So, at the very least, it should have some minor effects.

However, the moment the Prophecy Art was completed, nothing happened.

Despite this, everyone’s attention remained fixed on Ling Ishikawa, eagerly awaiting the results of his prophecy.

Meanwhile, Ling Ishikawa wore a peculiar expression, hesitating to speak.

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but ask, "Hey, Ling Ishikawa, why don’t you just tell us the result of the Prophecy Art? What are you waiting for? Even if your prediction is that we’ll die in Fisher’s Village, we can accept it calmly. After all, you did mention that your success rate with this Prophecy Art is impressive."

Upon hearing Liu Xing’s words, Miyako Goudong chimed in, "Yeah, to be honest, I’m not taking Ling Ishikawa’s prophecy results seriously at all. Your Prophecy Art doesn’t seem to be anything special. Unlike those masters I’ve seen in movies and novels, when they use Prophecy Art, there are usually all sorts of extraordinary phenomena. Even if it doesn’t make the heavens tremble, it should at least have some dramatic effect, right?"

Miyako Goudong’s comments made Ling Ishikawa smile wryly, and he said helplessly, "Well, I’m sorry to disappoint you, Miyako Goudong. Regarding the result of my Prophecy Art, I’m not sure if it’s a success or a failure."

Hearing this, Liu Xing grew even more curious about the outcome of Ling Ishikawa’s Prophecy Art, so he urged him, "Ling Ishikawa, don’t beat around the bush. Just tell us the result of the Prophecy Art. I’m really curious now."

Since the leader had given the order, Ling Ishikawa nodded and said, "Um, after I used the Prophecy Art, I received a result that Matsui Yui had once acted in a short film..."

Everyone: ...

Liu Xing’s mouth twitched a few times, not expecting such an unrelated result from Ling Ishikawa’s Prophecy Art. They were supposed to predict whether their group could successfully escape Fisher’s Village, but it seemed to have veered completely off track, predicting Matsui Yui’s previous profession.

"Ling Ishikawa, are you joking? How did you come up with this prediction?" Lu Tianya appeared skeptical, regarding the prophecy result as potentially fabricated.

It seemed that Lu Tianya was doubting whether this prophecy result was just a fabrication by Ling Ishikawa.

If Liu Xing didn’t know Ling Ishikawa inside out, he might have been suspicious too. Ling Ishikawa sighed and rubbed the back of his head, saying, "Well, how could I randomly make up a result to fool you guys? After I finished chanting the incantation for the Prophecy Art just now, my mind went completely blank, and then I saw the cover of a short film. I’m one hundred percent sure that the female lead on the cover was Matsui Yui!"

Upon careful consideration, Liu Xing realized that Ling Ishikawa’s Prophecy Art could produce such results, considering that it relied entirely on random elements. So, whatever results it yielded were entirely possible.

However, what intrigued Liu Xing more now was whether this result was actually true. If it was, it could potentially lead to a storyline related to Matsui Yui’s past.

Of course, if such a storyline did emerge, Liu Xing believed that Dogo Aige could also consider a career change to become the Incredible Hulk...
