"Huh? It really is just a boxed lunch?"

Sitting in an office in the amusement park's control room, which had been temporarily requisitioned by the police, Mu Chen, Lu Xiaoyao, and other plainclothes police officers who had apprehended Mingmei had never imagined that they had targeted the wrong person after checking Mingmei's insulated box.

This huge insulated box is really full of boxed meals.

The boxed lunches were full of proper food; the NPCs almost got hungry while they were inspecting them!

The most unacceptable thing is that Lu Xiaoyao was beaten up for no reason.

"Waaaaah, don't think I won't hit you just because you look like my classmate~"

Lu Xiaoyao, who was applying an ice pack to her eyes, once again failed to recognize Mingmei, leaving Mingmei helpless.

She's given up and given up. _(：3」∠)_

Just like now, Mingmei is sitting calmly in her chair, coldly watching her lunchboxes being lined up on the table. For a moment, she thought she might as well just give up on this game.

It's one thing to not recognize her as a mysterious businesswoman, but to think of her as a bomber?

Is this reasonable?

"Can't I do a part-time job? My morning shift is over, can't I just buy boxed lunches myself and sell them to tourists at the amusement park?"

Mingmei spoke with a cold expression, but her tone was full of grievance. She stared intently at Lu Xiaoyao and the others and said in a low voice, "You've wasted so much of my time, how are you going to compensate me for this?"

"How do you mean? Do you expect me to buy you a boxed lunch?" For some reason, Lu Xiaoyao, who is usually not very bright, was able to understand what Mingmei meant!

While Mingmei was still surprised that Lu Xiaoyao understood the hint so quickly, Lu Xiaoyao changed the subject: "Forget it, it's so hot, and you've been holding this outside for so long, and you were making a lot of noise just now. Even though the lunchbox wasn't spilled, what if the inside smells bad? Let's just forget about it."

Mingmei: ...

Upon hearing Lu Xiaoyao's reply, Mingmei felt a sudden sense of powerlessness.

As expected of you, Lu Xiaoyao.

In all three games, Lu Xiaoyao started each game with "You look so familiar," and then, unsurprisingly, the same scenario played out again: after repeatedly hinting at Mingmei, the mysterious merchant, she was rejected.

Mingmei glanced at Lu Xiaoyao's live stream in the backend system, and sure enough—

[Daddy's tired of saying "Say yes" to her, honey, can you please be more mindful?]

【Ugh! This game is so frustrating! Why?! Why do you always have to forget her?!】

[She loves you so much! Look at you! Is it really that hard for your immune system to remember her?!]

[Waaaaah, that mysterious businesswoman is really something! I try so hard to remind her every time, but... Lu Xiaoyao, what are you doing?!]

Why can't I ever meet the mysterious businesswoman?

Why are all the mysterious businessmen I encounter so enigmatic that I can't find them?

Good grief, what were you doing here?

...

Just as Mingmei saw the six-hour countdown appear on Lu Xiaoyao's character again, she had already managed to remain completely unmoved, and even wanted to sneer and block the other party.

"This mushroom and chicken bento box looks pretty good. May I order one?"

Just as Mingmei was speechless while Lu Xiaoyao was making her move, Mu Chen suddenly spoke up, and Mingmei's backend also suddenly showed a signal that a player had discovered the mysterious merchant and initiated a trade. Mingmei was slightly surprised by all of this.

Is this person really a gamer?

Heaven knows that when Mingmei first saw Mu Chen, she subconsciously suspected that he might be playing the villainous BOSS, the one who played the psychopathic bomber.

Fortunately, the system backend did indeed mark him as a player.

Before Mu Chen's last class, he told her that he had sold the rights to use her image. Mingmei later inquired with Yan Hui and confirmed that it was indeed true.

However, since Mu Chen himself appears in this script, Mingmei thought that her uncle probably wouldn't create another bomber who looks exactly the same as her to cause trouble, right?

However, Mingmei suddenly remembered that the Tyrant in the second round of the game looked exactly like Mu Chen himself.

Realizing her thoughts had wandered a bit, Mingmei snapped back to reality and quickly recommended another takeout to Mu Chen: "Of course, no problem. Besides the mushroom and chicken takeout, the sweet and sour pork with pineapple takeout is also very delicious. Would you like one?"

Okay~

The two of them finalized the deal for the boxed lunches in just a few words, a speed that left Lu Xiaoyao, who was standing to the side, completely dumbfounded.

"Hey bro, why are you buying a boxed lunch?"

After yesterday's big class, Lu Xiaoyao got to know Mu Chen, her classmate. Even when she was "beaten up" by the NPC in front of her just now, Mu Chen was able to take him down without making a sound. Lu Xiaoyao's impression of Mu Chen was reduced to just two words - "Call me boss!"

Lu Xiaoyao's voice was not low when she asked the question. When Mingmei handed the lunchbox to the other party, she looked up at Lu Xiaoyao, and her eyes seemed to say that there were a thousand words in them.

Of course, all those words of nonsense can be condensed into just two words—hehe.

Therefore, when Mu Chen took the lunchbox, he only glanced at Lu Xiaoyao and then said nothing more.

Lu Xiaoyao was completely confused throughout the whole process.

Did she say something wrong again?

Why are they all ignoring her?

"Can anyone explain this to me?" Seeing that Mu Chen ignored her, Lu Xiaoyao turned to Mingmei for help: "Why are you selling boxed lunches?"

"It's a secret~"

Mingmei suddenly felt a mischievous urge, and since the rules for playing NPCs also stipulated that she could not directly reveal her identity, Mingmei decided to carry this mischievous urge to the end.

Seeing that Mingmei didn't answer and the big boss didn't say anything, Lu Xiaoyao's pouting lips were practically sticking out of her mouth. She glanced at Mingmei, who was watching the show, and asked, "Are you really not my classmate?"

Who is your classmate?

Mingmei pretended to be stupid, just wanting to see what else Lu Xiaoyao wanted to say. As expected, Lu Xiaoyao stared at her for a long time, then muttered as if in a huff, "Hmph, indeed, you talk more than her, and you're not as good-looking as her. You're definitely not her."

Mingmei: Thank you so much for the compliment!

"Alright, since there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I haven't sold all my boxed lunches yet." Mingmei packed up the boxed lunches that were laid out on the table again, and then added, "If you arrest the wrong person again next time, it will cause panic among the people."

In other words, Mingmei means that she will help them keep this a secret.

"ah……"

Mingmei's reminder made them realize that they still had criminal suspects they hadn't caught!

There are so many tourists outside, and a bomber is hiding among them!

No matter how much Lu Xiaoyao got angry, Mingmei felt that at least with Mu Chen around, this Mu Chen with the villainous face should be very smart.

What she needs to do now is to find the other four players.

Oh, I'd better pray I don't run into the villainous bomber.
