"Is this game about to end?" Lu Xiaoyao asked casually as she went downstairs.
When she entered the conference room, she immediately chose to push two chairs together and sit down, letting out a comfortable sigh, "This is probably the fastest game I've played today. I didn't expect Charlie to have such poor mental fortitude!"
Hearing her words, the remaining three exchanged glances. They didn't find anything strange about the first half of her statement, but the second half—"Charlie's mental fortitude is lacking"—was different.
They didn't think Charlie's behavior just now was normal.
However, they couldn't understand why Charlie had suddenly become so emotional.
However, what surprised them the most was that Mu Chen actually nodded in agreement with Lu Xiaoyao's opinion!
Mingmei had just come downstairs and didn't go into the conference room immediately. Now, watching Lu Xiaoyao's live stream, she saw that Mu Chen's reaction was similar to that of others.
"He would really agree to Lu Xiaoyao's request? He's probably just trying to fool people, isn't he?"
Intuition tells Mingmei that Mu Chen is definitely up to no good!
Thinking this, Mingmei sat in the lobby on the first floor, not knowing what to do for a moment. She felt a little bored and wondered if she should sneak into the conference room.
"By the way! Gui Gui, where's that female NPC who looks like me?"
She suddenly remembered that she wasn't going in because she was looking for that fake fan NPC.
She's outside.
"Huh? What are you doing outside?"
Before Gui Gui could finish speaking, Ming Mei turned and walked out. At this moment, she had already forgotten that Charlie had fallen from the building not long ago.
So, when she met the fake NPC girl, she naturally saw Charlie's body lying next to her stall cart.
Although Gui Gui quickly blurred Ming Mei's eyes, it didn't stop her from seeing a stick figure lying on a pile of blood.
[Ghost, your mosaic is a bit perfunctory.]
Gui Gui: [As long as it's watchable, what more do you want?]
Instead of arguing with Gui Gui, Mingmei continued looking at the stick figures, and then she noticed that the blood splattered on the stall had small black specks in it.
Bright and beautiful: =. =
I don't know what kind of human tissue broke off and fell on it.
Mingmei approached the pale-faced fake food NPC and saw that she was vomiting profusely, saying, "It's all over, I'm doomed! It's all karma! I must have sold too many counterfeit products, causing food poisoning among the players and killing them! I'm going to jail..."
Bright and beautiful: ? ? ?
"Ah... you..."
Mingmei opened her mouth, wanting to reach out and touch the other person's shoulder to explain that it wasn't her fault, but then she saw her suddenly rush towards the conference room on the first floor of the building as if possessed.
"Wait a minute!"
Mingmei tried to stop them twice but failed; it was as if the other person had eyes in the back of their head.
[Host, there's no need to pursue this anymore. This is part of the game's NPC storyline settings; it will take effect at a certain time or plot point.]
Gui Gui called out to Ming Mei, "No matter how you try to stop her, she will break through the barriers and do what she's about to do."
"What's next for her...?"
After Mingmei finished asking the question and saw that Guigui didn't answer, she simply walked towards the conference room.
Incidentally, she had already seen what the fake fan NPC did when he rushed into the meeting room from Lu Xiaoyao's live stream.
He slid in on both knees, startling everyone!
Good heavens!
Even if the ground was smooth marble, the way he knelt down with a "thud" and slid in front of them using inertia still gave them quite a fright.
Especially Mu Chen, even though he recognized at a glance that the person in front of him was not Mingmei, he couldn't help but feel the veins on his forehead bulge as he watched the other person do such a thing with Mingmei's face on his back.
He couldn't believe his girlfriend would do that!
I was wrong!
The fake NPC then prostrated himself before the crowd, making everyone's eyes widen in disbelief. He then launched into a heartfelt and earnest confession: "I was wrong. I shouldn't have sold counterfeit products. I shouldn't have deceived my customers who trusted me. It was my fault..."
"Hey...wait a minute."
Despite the fake NPC's eagerness to repent and admit his mistakes, Lu Xiaoyao still hasn't figured out who this person is.
"What kind of boxed lunches are you selling? Who are you trying to fool?"
As Lu Xiaoyao spoke, she subtly turned her gaze to Mu Chen and Li Yuan, her eyes filled with sympathy.
It was completely in a "I understand, you guys are really pitiful" tone, which left Li Yuan utterly speechless.
Mu Chen couldn't help but laugh.
It's not that I'm laughing at Lu Xiaoyao, it's just that I'm laughing at Yan Hui for pulling this stunt.
Won't this really mess with people's mental state?
You get scammed, and then you want the other person to know you've been scammed.
Ignoring Lu Xiaoyao's gaze, Mu Chen asked directly, "Since you say you deceived the customer, how do you plan to compensate them? Academic credits or money?"
Fake NPC: ? ?
"Hey, boss, we can't just make things difficult for the NPC by having to pay them back credits after we've been scammed, since that's part of the game's mechanics..."
Lu Xiaoyao still hasn't realized the seriousness of the problem, and even waved at the NPC who was kneeling down "repenting".
While gently comforting the other party, Lu Xiaoyao was completely unaware that the NPC, who was moved to tears by her "generosity," was behaving strangely. Meanwhile, she was subconsciously wondering why Mu Chen was being so petty.
