Chapter 143 - Morse’s Scheme, The Last 60 Seconds
At the same time as the outside world, the four men looked at the rapidly rising red voting box on the monitor. They were so anxious that they were about to go crazy.
“What’s going on? Didn’t they say that the people who know how to vote have already voted?”
“Yeah! Could it be that the Death Inquisitor cheated? That d*mn guy!”
Barzel, a six-foot-four burly man, did not even make him cry when he dug out his intestines. However, he was so anxious that tears were about to fall.
“It shouldn’t be the Death Inquisitor. He has never broken the rules of the game.”
“Then what’s going on? Where did so many people suddenly come from?!”
Morse, who was standing at the side, seemed to have thought of something and continued to say, “I know. It’s because we started to dig out our intestines. The blue voting box began to rise. When the people outside saw it, they became anxious too. All of them called for the people around us to vote together!”
“F*ck! Then what should we do?!”
“What else can we do? Keep digging! Don’t forget, we have 80 million votes. Even if Harris and Barnett are dead, the intestines of the four of us together have more than 50 million votes. In the presidential election, there are only a few times where we have more than 50 million supporters. I don’t believe that the appeal of a death inquisitor is even greater than the presidential election!” Morse’s eyes revealed a sinister and resentful gaze. He spoke in a weak voice.
At this moment, Jack’s hoarse and cold voice sounded again.
“You still have two minutes.”
Hearing the Death Inquisitor’s countdown, the four of them trembled.
Suddenly, a trace of surprise flashed in Morse’s eyes, and he immediately lay on the floor. As he dug his intestines out from his anus, he cried bitterly.
“I beg you! Don’t vote anymore! We’re already so miserable!”
When Paulette saw Morse’s abnormal behavior, a flash of light flashed in his eyes. He immediately imitated Morse and lay on the floor.
“We’re going to die soon! Everyone, don’t vote anymore!”
Rainier saw that Morse still did not understand. When he saw Paulette follow suit, he immediately understood what the two of them were trying to do. He also laid on the floor and begged as he dug his intestines out with his hands.
Looking at the three of them, Barzel had a blank expression on his face. He did not understand what the three of them were doing, but no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he should be with the three of them now, so he lay on the ground as well.
At this moment, the audience in the live broadcast room was happy, and one after another, they sent bullet comments.
“Hahaha! I’m dying of laughter! These four bastards, do they think that begging for mercy is going to work now?”
“They even told us not to vote, just to make things worse for you!”
“Lying on the ground and digging out your intestines? How disgusting!”
“I’m going to throw up from watching! I’m not going to watch anymore! I’ll watch again after the vote!”
While the audience was sending their bullet messages, the officers at the NYPD were still confused.
“What are they doing? Are they begging for mercy? They can’t really think that begging for mercy is of any use now, right?” Loggins said in puzzlement.
Willie laughed and said, “Hahaha! Maybe these idiots really think so. Look at them! They are really ridiculous!”
Ross frowned. He was not worried that gut-gouging hand would have any tricks to survive. He had dealt with the Death Inquisitor many times, and he was completely at ease with the Death Inquisitor. The Inquisitor definitely had a way to let them die here.
He just wanted to see if he could discover the plan of the Inquisitor. Because the moment the Death Inquisitor saw Morse’s abnormal action, he must have already known what Morse was trying to do and had already thought of a countermeasure. This time, he did not have the chance to fight with the Inquisitor. This could be considered a disguised fight.
Hart, who was at the side, looked at the laughing Willie and said, “Impossible. They must have some kind of conspiracy. That Morse was the first to lie down, and then the other three followed suit. Either they saw what he was trying to do, or they believed that he had thought of a way.”
“Morse’s eyelids trembled subconsciously before he laid down. This is a typical surprise reaction. He must have suddenly thought of a way to survive. It’s the same for Paulette and Rainier. Barzel didn’t. Maybe he just went to learn from the other three.” Monica listened to their argument, and she gave her own analysis.
Ross’s eyes were fixed on the big screen. Suddenly, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
“I understand.”
Everyone turned their heads to look at Ross, only to see Ross slowly saying, “They’re trying to stall for time.”
“Look. Compared to the previous bullet screens, there are more mocking or cursing bullet screens. And just when they didn’t do anything abnormal, there are only voting bullet screens on the screen. As long as they can stall until the voting is over, they have a chance to survive.”
Hearing this, Judy said anxiously, “Ah? Then what should we do? We can’t let them survive! No! I want to send more bullet screens to remind everyone!”
“Don’t worry too much. The most important part of this plan is to hide it from others, especially the Death Judge. As long as he can see that this plan is easy to crack, just like you said, just give us a reminder. We can all see it. The Death Judge will definitely see it in an instant!”
“I see.” Judy was relieved after hearing the explanation, but her hands did not stop moving. She kept sending bullet messages.
Soon, someone noticed Judy’s reminder from the dense bullet messages and started to send them. Soon, the entire screen was filled with bullet messages reminding the audience.
The people who reacted were even angrier because they had been deceived. The number of people who participated in the voting increased.
At this moment, Jack’s cold and hoarse voice sounded again.
“It seems that there’s no need for me to remind you that the audience has already discovered your scheme. Am I right, officer?”
Judy jumped up excitedly and said, “Did you hear that? The Death Inquisitor mentioned me! His voice is so sexy!”
Everyone looked at Judy helplessly, not knowing what to say. To them, she was already starting to look like a fanatic.
On the other side, when the four people in the room heard Jack’s death-like voice, they were so scared that their bodies trembled. They looked up at the monitor and saw that the red voting box had begun to soar crazily again, and their expressions became even more distorted.
“F*ck! Why isn’t it working?! How did these idiots figure it out?!”
Morse angrily used his left hand to pound the ground. His right hand was still continuously digging out intestines from his anus. He had already dug out more than two meters worth of intestines and stacked them on the ground. Fresh blood mixed with mucus covered the entire ground.
As the four of them moved their hands, dark yellow sticky matter continued to flow out from the rectum that they had dug out. The scene was extremely strange and disgusting!
At this moment, the display flashed and a countdown that kept on ticking appeared in the middle of the screen. It was a total of 60 seconds.
Jack’s cold and hoarse voice sounded again.
“You still have 60 seconds left.”
