Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 965: The Predator's Best Tactics

"You're calling me fat boy right when you first meet me, Yayu, you..."

In the VIP room, after "driving away" Gu Yazun, April couldn't help laughing.

But after laughing, April couldn't help but question her teammates.

Although her trust in Yali has grown, April will still subconsciously choose to question it when the other party does something that she cannot explain rationally.

"But I say, didn't you say you wanted to leverage your power and build a good relationship with the Siren? Why would you directly insult a Siren big shot who came to you to make friends?"

"From his self-introduction... he must be a very powerful noble in the Siren Kingdom."

April asked, and Lin Yu nodded: "Yes, he is very powerful, but... he is not someone we can make friends with."

"why is that?"

April asked, even more confused.

Lin Yu looked at Siyue and said, "Because he didn't come here to make friends with us... This guy came here to test us, and he has the full intention of wanting to kill us."

As he spoke, April was stunned: "How did you know that?"

Of course, it was the [Mind Viewer] combined with my superb micro-expression analysis honed from years of observing human performances. The other person's acting was terrible, and he didn't even bother to hide his thoughts...

Lin Yu complained in his heart.

However, these words are not what "Yayu" would say.

So he calmly gave the answer that belonged to "Ya Li".

"I'm very sensitive to malice and murderous intent. In the wild, you'll encounter many cunning predators... For example, a bear will pretend not to see you, approaching you quietly, walking with its head down, and may even appear 'friendly' - but if you smell it carefully, you can smell murderous intent."

"That guy just now also revealed his true identity."

As Lin Yu spoke, April blinked: "Is that all? It feels unreliable. Just relying on your intuition without any evidence, maybe he really is just here to make friends..."

Although the content of the words was still questionable, April's tone clearly showed that she had already believed it for the most part.

"My feelings can't be wrong. Of course, even if they are wrong, it doesn't matter. He's just a regent. It won't affect our plan," Lin Yu said confidently. "I am willing to take responsibility for the judgment and decision I make. Even if something bad happens as a result, I will be responsible to the end."

April looked at Lin Yu, not expecting him to answer so firmly. She pondered for a long time, as if recalling something, before muttering, "It's really rare to see someone like you."

"what type?"

Lin Yu asked back.

April shook her head. "Nothing much... But I'm curious. If that guy really has ill intentions towards us, what's the reason?"

"The sirens don't need a reason to harbor malice towards humans. Don't forget that we are still human after all. Even our own kind can sometimes harbor unprovoked malice, let alone those of a different race."

Lin Yu said casually, and then added.

"Although the Sirens we met along the way were full of respect for us because of our status as the 'Middle Sea', most of them were not powerful Sirens... The higher the Sirens' status, the more emboldened they are and the more likely they are to maintain their dislike for us, isn't it?" Lin Yu shrugged. "There are more extremists among the Sirens' high-ranking officials than mermaids - didn't we encounter a Sirens massacre against humans at the beginning? That 'Lucky Golden Dragon'... Ah, maybe that Gu Ya Zun was the culprit behind it, and he wanted to silence us after seeing us escape."

Lin Yu analyzed casually.

April nodded: "That's very possible..."

"But I'm still not sure... That's why I chose to provoke that fat guy," Lin Yu looked at April. "A guy who is hiding and harboring malicious intent is definitely planning a conspiracy, so I need to destroy his patience and make him change his plan - make his plan more radical and hasty, so that I can deal with it more easily."

After hearing Lin Yu's analysis, although April still felt it was a little strange, she was completely convinced by Lin Yu: "I see...what you said does make sense."

"I just hope it won't affect our upcoming meeting with that 'Hai Mu Zun'. It would be terrible if he and that Gu Ya Zun were closely related."

"Between the upper classes, interests are paramount. Even if there truly is a friendship, it's fine as long as we can provide that Hai Mu Zun with sufficient benefits," Lin Yu said. "What's more... if that guy is truly familiar with Hai Mu Zun, according to the habits of 'celebrities and nobles', he would definitely tell me—he would have hinted or explicitly reminded me from the outset that he has some connection with the 'Hai Mu Zun' whom I am about to meet."

"And when he mentioned Hai Mu Zun just now, he directly skipped over this topic, so I guess he probably has an average relationship with that Hai Mu Zun... Of course, as I said, if I make a mistake in my judgment, I will naturally find a way to remedy it."

April looked at Yayu, who was sitting on the sofa and narrating all this in an orderly manner, and sighed: "Well, it seems that you are not only good at frontal combat, but also very good at thinking and strategy... Then I will do as you say and assist you."

Looking at April who was speaking in a joking tone and pretending to be humble, Lin Yu was not polite at all.

"It's long overdue."

April, who had been backing off, curled her lips again when she heard this: "How rude! You're the type who will climb up any ladder you can find!"

"Of course, like I said before, I'm the type to climb up by any means necessary!"

Lin Yu said proudly with his chest puffed out.

April was helpless: "That's obviously not what I meant!"

While the two were talking, there was another knock on the door.

The announcement sounded again.

"Greetings, distinguished guests! The guest you have booked, Hai Mu Zun, has arrived at the auction house. He has invited you to meet in his private collection room. What is your response?"

April had completely given up on negotiations and decision-making, and she looked at Lin Yu.

"Yayu, should we leave now, or should we leave him alone for a while?"

"Of course we're going. There's no point in leaving him alone for a while," Lin Yu stood up from the sofa. "Come on, let's see how much he has and what quality he has!"

"Also, I hope that guy will be sensible and not let me down too much."

As Lin Yu spoke, April also stood up.

"If I could finalize the details of the deal directly with him, it would indeed be much more convenient later on—but what if he doesn't know what's best for him?"

Hearing April's question, Lin Yu laughed.

"That's great! As expected of a member of the 'Predators', you finally said something decent."

"If that guy doesn't know what's best for him... then of course we 'plunderers' will resort to our best tactics!"
