Chapter 373 Secrets and Misleading
Chapter 373 Secrets and Misleading
When Lin Yu used this tactic, the game once again became the simplest rock-paper-scissors, best-of-three game.
Although the inequality still existed, and the ghost-faced man had a "left hand" card in his hand, which allowed him to change the card once more...
But after losing the game, such behavior can only improve the winning rate, but not much.
not to mention……
Regardless of whether the God of Fate exists or not, luck always seems to be on the side of those who are braver and more interesting!
The first card is revealed.
Stone against stone, a draw.
The second card is revealed.
Scissors vs. rock...Lin Yu wins.
The third card is revealed!
Cloth vs. cloth—still a draw!
After the three cards were revealed, the ghost-faced man calmed down.
"Oh...you win."
He put away the auxiliary cards and rock-paper-scissors cards on the table.
"Okay, now you have three questions for me."
Lin Yu crossed his hands.
His first goal had been achieved - he won the game with a final score of three to zero.
The ghost-faced man didn't ask any questions.
But Lin Yu needs to think carefully about the next "three questions".
He didn't intend to ask the other party's identity, and the reason was still the same as before...
Whether it is "name", "ID" or other identity identification, it is too easy to falsify.
What's more...what if the other party uses techniques such as "puppet" or "possession", just like the "fortune teller" he just met, is it still possible to find out the other party's true identity?
So, Lin Yu planned to ask some other questions.
"Are you affiliated with or collaborating with any of the three organizations that were removed from the forum?"
Lin Yu asked his first question.
When the ghost-faced man heard this question, he did not answer it in a hurry, but instead praised Lin Yu.
"You're pretty quick at grasping the essence of the problem..."
"Although I can only answer 'yes' or 'no,'" the ghost-faced man said in a low voice, "consider this a gift from me. I don't belong to any organization, but I have cooperated with the Psychological Society and the Predators, and we are in the process of cooperating."
"As for the 'Freedom Alliance'... they can't be considered a whole, so I can only say that some of its members happily cooperated with me."
Lin Yu nodded slightly when he heard the other party's tone: "It sounds like you should be a celebrity... Moreover, you claim to be an accomplice to the murder that occurred here, and you also named yourself "Consultant."
"You should be planning crimes against players."
Lin Yu stated, but the ghost-faced man neither admitted nor denied it.
"Okay, what's your next question?"
"As for the next question, let's just ask about the case, but I won't ask who the murderer is," Lin Yu said thoughtfully, "Why did Radish's [prop] get lost?"
The ghost-faced man crossed his arms. "So you've realized that the loss of his [Props] and his death are two relatively independent events..."
Lin Yu nodded: "I only had a vague idea before, but because I was too tired, my brain hadn't sorted it out yet... So, it was only after meeting you, who claimed to be an 'accomplice', that I confirmed this possibility."
"So, do you have any idea?"
"That [Super Genetically Modified Radish] is a very dangerous thing... I know you already know it's dangerous, but most people are misled," the Ghost-Faced Man said calmly. "The upper limit of that thing is enough to subvert civilization... Don't forget, its addictive properties are effective against most sentient and intelligent creatures."
"It's not so bad in our world, but in the ten realms over there in the dungeon... ha, there are a lot of interesting creatures."
After being reminded by the ghost-faced man, Lin Yu realized something.
"Someone is planning to use this thing to wreak havoc on the dungeon world!"
"Right... so you can breathe a sigh of relief for now, 'Order'."
The man with the ghost face said this and made a "please" gesture.
"Okay, last question."
Lin Yu nodded.
There is one last question.
He actually had a lot of questions, about this case, about the other party...
But after thinking it over, Lin Yu finally asked the question that he wanted to ask almost every guy who came to him.
"Why are you targeting me?"
Lin Yu asked sincerely. The ghost-faced man looked at Lin Yu and put his hand on his mask.
"Entrusted by others."
This was the briefest question he answered.
What else was Lin Yu going to say...
However, the ghost-faced man waved his hand.
The entire dream suddenly stopped - and the moment it stopped.
The dream was swallowed by darkness.
……
"No wonder."
Downstairs in the hotel, in the back seat of a car parked across the street, a young man with a black cat on his shoulder woke up, his eyes shining.
"No wonder the Fortune Teller personally commissioned it... No wonder he's being watched by the gods, and no wonder the Forum is trying to erase his traces!"
"No wonder Forbolo values him..."
"I now fully understand the secret of 'May May'!"
The black cat on the boy's shoulder yawned.
"Ha... Twenty, but didn't you ask him anything in your dream just now?"
"You could have cheated, but you chose not to... You even used a game that relied heavily on 'luck,' completely giving away your advantage."
The frail boy called "Twenty" scratched the black cat's chin.
"You don't understand, he asked me, and I actually revealed more."
"Besides, even if we really change the game, I'm afraid I might not be able to win..."
The black cat said disdainfully: "You are not pretending."
"How is that possible? I've already confirmed... 'May May' is just a fake identity... Do you understand? This guy has the means to forge identities and abilities, and he probably acquired this method when he was at the First Level!"
"This guy has definitely gained the attention of the gods... and if he grows up, he will definitely be a very terrifying guy."
"So, I have to find out his true identity as soon as possible. I should be able to find someone among the recent S-level members of the Psychology Society," Ershi licked his lips. "It won't be hard to find... If I find him, I'll definitely uncover all his secrets."
"When the time comes... I'll make him feel despair—there's nothing more wonderful than that."
As he spoke, his expression revealed a hint of intoxication.
……
"How long have I slept?"
Lin Yu opened his eyes, turned his head to look at Stiller who was reading a book beside him, and asked.
"Six hours, Director," Stiller said, closing his copy of "Late Birdsong." "Six hours and fifteen minutes, to be exact."
"Your emotions were fluctuating abnormally during this period, but since you weren't threatened, Mr. Zheng over there decided I didn't need to wake you."
Lin Yu looked towards the end of the bed, his shining brain speaking proudly.
"Kid, who 'entered' your dream? I smell a nightmare spell!"
Lin Yu shrugged: "A guy who calls himself a consultant."
"But it doesn't matter... He came at the perfect time."
"If it weren't for him, I really don't know how I would have misled a being of the Fortune Teller's level."
