Chu Xing's expression changed drastically upon waking, but he quickly reverted to his invincible, nonchalant demeanor.
"Then I'm sorry!"
Linghu Lan laughed and said, "Mr. Chu, you seem to enjoy being the only one sober while everyone else is drunk. You think you've grasped the true meaning of death. But have you ever considered this: what if your identity is also fake?"
Chu Xing felt a chill run down her spine. "What do you mean?"
“It’s nothing!” Linghu Lan smiled slightly. “I just know that an ordinary person doesn’t have the patience to repeatedly pick up and drop off someone on blind dates every day while just watching. Such monotonous and repetitive work is very boring. Most people prefer to do fresh, interesting, and creative work. Obviously, your job is not in that category. So, I guess your identity may also be fake.”
A flicker of anxiety flashed in Chu Xing's eyes. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then opened them again and said definitively, "You're talking nonsense!"
"Oh? I'm talking nonsense? Where's the evidence?"
Chu Xing stared intently at Linghu Lan and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I remember it perfectly well. In the system, my identity was that of a rich young master's son, and I was good friends with Bai Yu. But in the real world, my identity is..."
Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat as he stared intently at Chu Xing.
He paused, then stopped speaking, revealing a victorious smile, as if he had the two men caught in a trap, finding it particularly amusing. "Ye Xunhuan, you think I'd fall for your tricks? That I'd tell you my true identity? Hahahaha! That's impossible!"
Bai Yu glanced at him coldly and said, "I know who you are."
Chu Xing's heart tightened, and his breathing became rapid. He stared intently at Bai Yu's lips, afraid that they might utter something that would frighten him.
"I think the fact that this paper doll game has become so popular worldwide must have attracted the attention of some righteous people who want to investigate you. However, your entry vetting system is very strict; not everyone can get in, and it's difficult for outsiders to find evidence to prosecute you. So, those righteous organizations can only send people in to infiltrate and investigate. But everyone has been brainwashed; most people are trapped in the game and can't get out. However, there are a few exceptions, like me!"
Upon waking, he stared wide-eyed in terror, his mouth tightly shut, speechless.
Bai Yu continued, "So, if I'm not mistaken, my identity is that of an investigator, and the way I keep a diary and organize information has also attracted your attention. So you are a monitor, Chu Xing, right?"
Chu Xing felt as if he had been hit hard, and a feeling of weakness and powerlessness spread throughout his body, almost making him collapse.
He simply couldn't understand how he could deduce such a large number of correct results from such limited information.
Bai Yu is truly terrifying.
However, he still asked, unwilling to give up, "How did you guess that?"
"Have you forgotten how many blind dates I've been on? I've been on fifteen blind dates. It was you who brought me news from 'Grandma' that said if I couldn't find a suitable partner, I would have to marry a rich heiress. So, she arranged blind dates for me one after another."
"I don't understand, what's wrong with this!"
"You appeared so suddenly. I've been writing in that diary for a long time, and you never appeared before. But after the blind date, you appeared every single day. Isn't the contrast obvious?"
