Chapter 355 A New Game with Too Many Elements



"hello?"

Mingmei was somewhat bewildered as she stood in front of an NPC who looked exactly like her.

She raised her hand to greet the other person, and from her perspective, the nickname above the other person's head was quite clever—[Mysterious Merchant (Fake)].

"Hello."

Despite having the same face, Mingmei saw a gentleness and docility she had never seen before on her own face.

Even when you greet someone, they respond with a gentle smile, like a warm spring breeze, radiating warmth and approachability.

This is a bit tricky.

"You sell boxed lunches too?" Mingmei asked uncertainly. The pseudo-mysterious merchant NPC nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, selling boxed lunches is great! I've prepared quite a lot today. I hope you can mentor me more in the future, so I can sell boxed lunches as well as you!"

For some inexplicable reason, Mingmei seemed to smell a hint of tea.

Her gaze fell on the small food stall behind the other person—Sun and Moon Boxed Meals.

Immediately afterwards, Mingmei subconsciously turned around and glanced at the small food stall behind her—Mingming Boxed Meals.

Mingmei: Good heavens! This imitation is amazing!

This game's gameplay is toxic!

Mingmei hasn't even seen the players yet, but just seeing this NPC is enough to make her want to light a candle for today's players.

If she buys the wrong thing, it's not just that the player won't be able to finish the game, but her academic credits will be a big problem!

Oh, and today she even specifically reminded Lu Xiaoyao to go online and play games so she could relax and let her fans know she's safe.

And that's it?

Will Lu Xiaoyao really be able to relieve her emotions in this game?

I hope I won't become withdrawn.

Mingmei couldn't even imagine the scene where Lu Xiaoyao would be tricked out of her points and intelligence.

While Mingmei was lost in thought, the other person had already driven away in their stall. Only when Mingmei came back to her senses did she remember to check the game's description.

Then, she saw this message in her game's backend: [Game: Secret Substitute, Plot: Omitted.]

Bright and beautiful: ?

"Does my uncle treat me like an outsider? How can he treat me like this, when I'm just an NPC?"

Mingmei was instantly amused and annoyed. Did she, an NPC, not deserve to know some inside information about the game?!

[Host, this game is quite complicated. I suggest you stay ignorant of the details; sometimes ignorance is bliss.]

Gui Gui kindly reminded her, but Ming Mei replied, "Help me open Lu Xiaoyao's live stream. I don't know, but someone else must know."

Gui Gui: [...]

Gui Gui sighed softly. It felt that Ming Mei wouldn't shed tears until she saw the coffin, and wouldn't give up until she saw Lu Xiao Yao's wicked intentions.

So, as soon as Mingmei entered Lu Xiaoyao's live stream, she saw Lu Xiaoyao checking the background of her character and learning about the role she was playing.

So, Mingmei browsed through Lu Xiaoyao's unremarkable character setting and story background from Lu Xiaoyao's perspective.

Finally, at the bottom of Lu Xiaoyao's character card, a sentence was added: "[You're just an ordinary passerby with no special characteristics.]"

Bright and beautiful: ?

"What?!"

Not only was Mingmei speechless, but Lu Xiaoyao was also speechless. She looked at the police officer who was not far from her, holding a pair of gleaming handcuffs and looking like he was about to arrest her. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Is this how innocent bystanders are treated?

After fully absorbing the information about her character, Lu Xiaoyao tentatively asked, "Am I just an innocent passerby?"

“Deer Man A, please take your attitude seriously! Today, when Mr. Shuchuan died, you were directly above him, you are a suspect…”

"I'm just a high-rise cleaner, okay? I only got a last-minute notice today saying that the exterior windows on the 24th floor of the building needed cleaning, so I went there, okay? How can you blame me for this last-minute job? What premeditation could I have planned?"

Besides, he was killed by a flowerpot, not by my bucket. You just open your mouth and say I'm a suspect. Are you even capable? If you're not, hire a detective, understand?

"Isn't our 'Little Moon Kingdom JC Savior' Detective Lou Yitian here today too?"

Lu Xiaoyao kept insisting that she was innocent and demanding that a detective solve the case. For a moment, the two police officers she brought to question her exchanged glances, hesitant and unsure of what to do.

Seeing this familiar setting, Mingmei quietly asked Guigui, "My uncle is so busy every day, does he still have time to watch anime?"

This familiar premise—solving cases not with the police but with detectives—Mingmei also wanted to ask her uncle how he managed to do it all the time.

While working overtime like a corporate slave, they can still sneak in some time to watch anime.

【have no idea. 】

Even Gui Gui admits she can't match this.

[Host, I think you should drive your food cart to the location where the story takes place. Otherwise, not only will you not sell any boxed lunches today, but you might also have your reputation ruined by that fake boxed lunch NPC.]

"Um?"

Unaware of the seriousness of the situation, Mingmei gave a confused "hmm," and Guigui asked, "If someone buys her lunchbox and it has no effect, that's one thing; but what if it has the opposite effect of your lunchbox? What do you think the players would think?" [cascoo.net]

"Wow!"

Mingmei quickly drove the stroller to the location where the story took place, a newly opened skyscraper in the city center.

Lu Xiaoyao is currently embroiled in a murder case, and the victim is none other than the owner of this skyscraper—Shuchuan.

Meanwhile, as Lu Xiaoyao persisted and her testimony was quickly confirmed, Lou Jia, who played the detective "Lou Yitian," also made his appearance.
