Just as Mu Chengsi was in a daze, she suddenly saw Jiang Xi winking at her.
Her eyes changed slightly, and then she immediately understood and nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's go."
The two of them walked away arm in arm. From the back, those who didn't know them would have thought they were good sisters. But when they turned a corner and reached a corner where the NPC couldn't see them, they let go of their hands at the same time in tacit understanding, and the bright and friendly smiles on their faces were instantly retracted.
Mu Chengsi leaned against the wall and looked at her: "What do you want to tell me? Or did you discover something?"
The time they had for their conversation was very short, and they couldn't stay here for too long, otherwise the NPC would definitely become suspicious.
Jiang Xi also knew this path, so he made a long story short: "There is something wrong with Shen Youyou."
I was thinking about telling you about my guess, but then I saw Mu Chengsi nodded and said, "I figured it out, too."
In fact, from the moment he saw Shen Youyou, Mu Chengsi noticed that something was wrong.
Her intuition told her that there was something wrong with Shen Youyou.
There was a very strange sense of disharmony about the other person, seemingly having escaped from a prison environment, but his mental state was too good, and he even had the energy to confront her.
Mu Chengsi used his character to test it several times, but he never expected that this time, he would find out something unusual.
The micro-expressions that flashed across Shen Youyou’s face from time to time and the emotions in her eyes made Mu Chengsi feel a little more solemn.
Before meeting Shen Youyou, Mu Chengsi never thought that there would be any problems with the other party. Even though Bai Jingmo had previously suggested that Shen Youyou had problems, she was skeptical and half-believing.
But now we may have to rethink the difficulty of this copy.
At the same time, she couldn't tell what she felt in her heart.
Mu Chengsi had to admit that she had always looked at people through tinted glasses, and she couldn't really believe what Bai Jingmo and that NPC said.
But it turned out that Bai Jingmo didn't seem to have lied to her.
Mu Chengsi pressed his eyebrows, feeling a little guilty.
She is a senior after all. Even if Bai Jingmo is her mission target, she still has to put aside these prejudices in the copy.
And that heart...
Mu Chengsi opened her eyes and slowly narrowed them. She couldn’t let Shen Youyou get it.
Looking up at Jiang Xi, Mu Chengsi's expression softened when she saw that she was willing to share the news with her. She also generously shared the news she knew, "In fact, I have already met Lina."
Jiang Xi was shocked: "Did you see it?"
"Yes, and it wasn't just Lina. Bai Jingmo was there too." Mu Chengsi nodded, "And Bai Jingmo was bewitched by Lina. I don't know if it's because of this that he listens to that NPC now."
Jiang Xi quickly accepted this: "If that's the case...it's actually not bad news."
She pushed her glasses and said calmly, “If Shen Youyou is really a dangerous NPC, as it stands now, she and Lina are in an antagonistic relationship, and Bai Jingmo will help Lina eliminate her. We can let them hurt each other first, and then take action when they are seriously injured in the later stage.”
Mu Chengsi raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said in an appreciative tone: "Your idea is really good, and quite smart."
Jiang Xi looked a little uncomfortable, "...Actually, it's also the experience I gained from clearing other dungeons before."
In fact, Jiang Xi was also inspired by the copy of Shengyi Middle School. In that copy, Qingli and Wu Bianming both wanted her to die, but in the end they both ended up suffering losses.
But she still remembered the loss she suffered in that copy - that is, she couldn't believe a single word the villain said.
"But there is a downside to this approach." She poured cold water on him, "Our scores won't be very high."
All the key matters were handed over to Bai Jingmo, and they could only be considered background members at best.
Mu Chengsi also realized this: "Yes, so it's best to find out what Shen Youyou has hidden from us first, at least get the plot points, and at the same time prevent Shen Youyou from succeeding."
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "It's okay. Since we have your help, the problem shouldn't be too big."
With Mu Chengsi and Wu Bei here, as long as the four of them work together, they can still deal with them.
“…”
As if he suddenly remembered something, Mu Chengsi touched his nose uncomfortably.
"Um, I forgot to mention this. Actually... uh, my current identity is a bit special, so you should remember to be on guard against me sometimes. I might stab you in the back."
Jiang Xi's smile froze slightly: "..."
Girl, why didn't you say this earlier?
——
Shen Youyou didn't care too much about Jiang Xi and Mu Chengsi's departure. She was now focusing all her attention on the man, silently thinking about how to make him return to normal as quickly as possible.
Her sight fell on the tightly closed door, and Shen Youyou's eyes suddenly lit up.
Got it!
Since Lina's heart can remove the bewitching effect, does it mean that as long as Bai Jingmo gets Lina's heart, he will return to normal?
So the most important thing now is to get Mary to give up her heart.
Thinking of the other party's vigilance towards herself, Shen Youyou's eyes darkened again.
It seemed that she had to talk to Mary alone.
"Squeak--" Just as he was thinking about it, the door next to him was finally opened and Mary walked out.
Just at this moment, Mu Chengsi and Jiang Xi also came back from the "bathroom". They subconsciously looked at Mary's hand, wanting to see what the mysterious heart looked like.
But when I looked over, I realized that the other person's hand was empty.
Several people were stunned. What does this mean? Didn’t find it?
Shen Youyou also frowned and stood up, “Aunt Mary, where are the things?”
Mary walked to the chair, rubbed her brows, and said three words in a dry tone with a somewhat irritable tone:
“It’s gone.”
Seeing that the expressions on the other party's faces did not seem fake, several players looked at each other, all confused, not knowing how to react.
NPCs can make key items disappear... This is the first time they have seen this.
But it was obvious that after hearing the news, Shen Youyou was obviously more excited than them.
She stood up suddenly, her face full of shock and disbelief: "Gone?!?"
What about Bai Jingmo?
And she also wanted to obtain the power in it, how could she just disappear like that!
Rushing to Mary, she said anxiously, "How could it be missing? Did you forget where you put it? Think about where else you might have put it..."
As she spoke, Shen Youyou's voice suddenly paused, squinting her eyes and staring at the maid's face, her tone suspicious, "Aunt Mary, I remember whoever owns that thing will not be bewitched by Lina, but haven't you been sober all the time? Could it be that...that thing just disappeared?"
Since Mary has been able to stay awake the whole time, it means that her heart has never left her.
Hearing this, Mary paused and looked up, "Miss, what do you mean by this?"
Her expression was a little cold. "Are you suspecting that I'm hiding it on purpose?"
