Chapter 127 [(*^▽^*)]
Wang Xin's eyes lit up when he saw him. "Oh, Mr. Lu, you've come at just the right time."
Jiang Xiaoyue glanced back and was not surprised by Lu Tianwen's arrival, since the kitchen was not far from here.
Moreover, if they really make a move, the commotion here won't escape Lu Tianwen's notice, and he'll appear very soon.
She just didn't expect Lu Tianwen to arrive so quickly; she thought he would be delayed there a little longer, but it's alright.
"Hmph! Let's go."
Jiang Xiaoyue chose to temporarily avoid the situation this time.
Lin Leyou saw Jiang Xiaoyue and the others walk past Lu Tianwen and head towards the back, seemingly to find those NPCs to inquire about what happened last night.
Or rather, to search for so-called evidence.
Jiang Xiaoyue was clearly not a first-time participant in this werewolf game, but she didn't seem to know any shortcuts to completing the tasks, so we can conclude that the tasks are different each time.
Lu Tianwen watched them walk away, and only when they were far enough away did he turn to look at Wang Xin and the other man, "What exactly happened?"
For the first time ever, Ding Baishuang replied, "If you hadn't come, they might have already made their move."
Lu Tianwen slowly walked down the stairs. "Those four seem to be targeting us... Why is that?"
Wang Xin: "How would I know? But speaking of which, there's another woman too."
Ding Baishuang added, "There are also two people who ate something last night, and they are nowhere to be seen either. I didn't see them on the first floor before."
Wang Xin: "Could it be that all three of them died in the melee?"
Lu Tianwen shook his head, "That's unlikely. There were three people. If a fight had broken out, we couldn't have missed it. They were probably secretly gathering evidence to complete their mission, after all..."
The three exchanged glances, then tacitly looked away, unspokenly agreeing to destroy the evidence needed by the others.
Chen Ying's mission objective is different from his, while Wang Xin's mission is the same as Ding Baishuang's. So perhaps Chen Ying went to find someone else to work on her mission objective.
"By the way, have you found any evidence?"
Wang Xin smiled innocently, "This kind of evidence isn't so easy to find. These NPCs are all trying their best to distance themselves from the situation, so it's unlikely that we can find a breakthrough by talking to them."
Ding Baishuang suddenly said, "Finding evidence is actually very simple."
Lu Tianwen was stunned for a moment, "What?"
Ding Baishuang probably realized that if Lu Tianwen died, her and Wang Xin's situation would become even more difficult, and they might even be forced to passively endure the beatings. Therefore, she did not completely ignore Lu Tianwen's questions.
"Just find a time when the other party is not in their room, sneak into their room to look for evidence, and you should be able to find it."
They might be able to find it, but they might not. Besides, the two of them had already destroyed a lot of evidence, but they just hadn't found what they wanted.
They were lucky to find evidence that others needed, but they were also unlucky and destroyed that evidence.
Wang Xin stood to the side without saying a word. It seemed that this was the method they used to sneak into the target room without being seen by Jiang Xiaoyue and the others, or even by Lu Tianwen.
Lu Tian asked, "No problem, thank you for telling me this, Ms. Ding!"
Ding Baishuang nodded coldly, and she and Wang Xin went downstairs again. "The three of us should stick together now and not stray too far apart."
"We don't know where Chen Ying is right now. Let's assume she's dead. There are only three of us left. If another one dies, the remaining two will just have to wait to die."
Lu Tianwen thought what she said made a lot of sense, so he wasn't worried at all that the two of them would take action against him now. "I'm quite curious, why are they targeting us?"
Wang Xin: "The other two aren't targeting us, but they don't seem like they'd be on our side either."
Ding Baishuang said, "I always felt that their behavior of eating together last night was like they were trying to figure out who was closer to them. That woman even asked some questions."
Lu Tian asked, "Speaking of which, I also remembered that I was prepared to make up excuses, but that woman didn't ask us at all. The only difference was that we didn't touch the dessert or late-night snack from last night. Is there a reason for that? I should have eaten them. Anyway, I had breakfast this morning."
Wang Xin: "It's too late to talk about this now, but is it really because of this that we're being targeted?"
When Lin Leyou heard them say that, he thought to himself, "Isn't that right? Only players would be suspicious of the food here, and they wouldn't touch it if they were being cautious."
The inhabitants of the Endless World, however, had no such concerns, especially since they all knew that this was a game organized by a very powerful person.
Although he is a person from the real world just like the players, his identity in the infinite world is that of a resident here.
He is on the opposite side from the players, except for Xue Rui, who is special after all. But he doesn't have any extra feelings for other players.
Lin Leyou sent a message to Xue Rui: "Jiang Xiaoyue and three others are staying together, and Wang Xin and three others are staying together. It seems that we won't be able to make a move anytime soon."
Xue Rui replied, "It's alright, we'll always find an opportunity!"
Lin Leyou thought about it and realized that these people would definitely start another conflict. Maybe the next time they clashed, he and Xue Rui could take advantage of the situation.
The next conflict could very well be the last one in the game.
After all, it's hard to say what will happen in a chaotic battle; the outcome might be that no one dies, or everyone might die.
Lin Leyou continued to confirm the location of Xue Rui's three spiders. They would normally be impossible to find, as the spiders were very well hidden, but with Xue Rui's cooperation, it became much easier.
After confirming the location of all the spiders, he didn't plan to move them now. Instead, he planned to wait until everyone downstairs was no longer on the first floor before moving the spiders' positions with Xue Rui.
At that time, their spiders will be able to monitor every corner inside and outside the entire snow mountain villa, and they must have complete control over who will be alone and when.
But thinking about this, Lin Leyou felt something was off. Could it be that only he and Xue Rui had this spider? Jiang Xiayue and the others didn't have it?
This mechanical spider item spawned in the Happiness Community; perhaps it's not actually available in the Endless World? Even if players have it, it's probably very rare.
After all, there wouldn't be any other player as skilled as me at farming demons in the community dungeon.
Jiang Xiaoyue suddenly remembered the two of them.
"Why don't I see those two unfamiliar people?"
Shen Yuesheng thought for a moment, "We really haven't seen them. There are three people we haven't seen. Two are from our side, and the woman is from their side. Should we go look for them?"
Jiang Xiaoyue pondered for a moment, "It's alright, let them do as they please. Anyway, if they die, we'll have gained something, and if they don't die... we won't lose anything."
Qin Fengmian: "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Xiaoyue turned to look at him. "What's wrong, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Fengmian said, "I've been following you for a long time. If you're not planning to make a move now, I have my own things to do."
Jiang Xiaoyue: "What's wrong? Are you going to find someone else with the same mission objective as you? Maybe it's someone from their side?"
Qin Fengmian said, "There are two others whose whereabouts are unknown; they are from our side."
His meaning was clear: perhaps one of those two people shared the same mission objective as him.
Jiang Xiaoyue said, "Since you're going, then go. But remember to bring them over when you find them. Just now, the four of us had an advantage against the three of them, but it wasn't a big one."
"If... we had two more, even if they brought back the other one who had fallen behind, our chances of winning would still be higher."
Qin Fengmian thought for a moment and didn't refuse, "No problem."
Shen Yuesheng said with a smile, "Mr. Qin, you should be careful. If you encounter other people on your way to find the other two, you may be in danger, since you are traveling alone."
Qin Fengmian was polite to Jiang Xiaoyue, but that didn't mean he would treat Shen Yuesheng the same way. When Shen Yuesheng spoke to him, Qin Fengmian turned and left.
He didn't even give her a glance, let alone answer her, displaying an extremely cold demeanor.
Shen Yuesheng wore his usual smile, as if he didn't care at all, perhaps because he was already used to it.
"Oh dear, Mr. Qin is still as cold to me as ever, what should I do?"
Jiang Xiaoyue sighed, "Why don't you just stay away from him?"
Shen Yuesheng revealed a meaningful smile, "What can I do if I can't help myself?"
Jiang Xiaoyue: "Then you brought it on yourself, don't complain."
Shen Yuesheng looked somewhat aggrieved, "Alright then..."
Zhao Changzhou watched as the two of them acted as if Shen Yuesheng really liked Qin Fengmian, but in reality, Shen Yuesheng only liked the sarcastic Qin Fengmian.
Qin Fengmian... and the reason why I am nice to Jiang Xiaoyue is entirely because she is Miss Jiang. If it weren't for her status, given Jiang Xiaoyue's current strength, status and position, let alone Qin Fengmian, even I wouldn't pay any attention to her.
Jiang Xiaoyue's gaze shifted to Zhao Changzhou. "Oh? You're still here? If you have nothing to do, why don't you go help Mr. Qin and find out where they are? If they don't want to come with Mr. Qin, you can help persuade them if you're here."
What do you mean, "help persuade them"? You mean help threaten them!
Zhao Changzhou had nothing to say, so he could only nod in agreement and then headed in the direction Qin Fengmian had just gone. Fortunately, he hadn't gone far and soon caught up with him.
The two walked up to the second floor. Qin Fengmian glanced at him but didn't say anything.
Zhao Changzhou looked at him and sighed, "I never expected to run into her while participating in this game. What bad luck."
