"Brother Zui, you finally spoke. I thought you ran away with Shadow too."
Cheng Shi smiled like a little fox, just like a villain who succeeded in his evil plan.
"·......"
"Why have you been so quiet lately? Have you changed your mind to [Silence]?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I just woke up."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shi's hand touched his nose uncontrollably.
"?"
Cheng Shi blinked in confusion, then bent over and laughed wildly, laughing so hard that tears were about to come out.
It turns out that the "Honest Clown" not only deceived himself, but also deceived the lips of foolish play. This is also...
So fucking awesome!
"·......"
"Brother Zui, why are you silent again? Don't you like lying anymore?"
"Brother Zui, have you changed your gender?"
"Brother Mouth, are you still there?"
"Hello?"
The lips of foolish play returned to silence again, but Cheng Shi was extremely happy in his heart.
Sometimes he was afraid that his mouth would lose its function under "fate", but now it seemed that it seemed to have resisted the oppression of "fate".
Not bad, not bad, at least I'm not too lonely.
Thinking of this, Cheng Shi raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose. He was feeling the condition of his nose, hoping that he would be able to deceive people better by touching his nose during the remaining trial time.
But what he didn't expect was that the Foolish Lips suddenly said while he was touching his nose:
"·Fate cannot be resisted."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shi's smile froze on his face.
He couldn't laugh anymore.
What does Brother Zui mean by this?
Was what it said true or false? Was it deliberately exploiting the loophole of the [Fraud] curse, or did it fail to trigger the effect of the "Honest Clown"?
What does it want to express and what does it want to tell myself?
If this was an external conversation, Cheng Shi would probably need to think for a moment, but for Fool's Lips, he preferred to ask directly, even though he knew there would most likely be no response.
"Brother Mouth, yours is the Mouth of a Liar, not the Mouth of a Riddler. Can you please explain it more clearly?"
As expected, there was no response from the lips of foolishness.
Okay, okay, that’s how we play it, you really want me to be the clown, right?
Cheng Shi was confused and confused, so he took out his anger on the only dead person at the scene.
He picked up the concentric dagger on the table again and prepared to write two words on the forehead of the Serius scholar who had plotted against him:
clown!
But just as he raised his hand, the next second, the wooden door of the room was pushed open from the outside.
A little girl with shoulder-length hair jumped in.
"Grandpa Serius, I brought you your favorite..."
The cheerful voice stopped abruptly just as it began.
The little girl was stunned by what she saw. She looked at Cheng Shi raising the dagger, at the scholar sitting on the chair with blood on his chest, at the familiar face with his eyes open. With a "click", the bag in her hand fell to the ground.
The jumping posture froze and the happy smile solidified.
The eyes that were crescent-shaped in the previous second turned red in the next second, with two lines of tears streaming down. The joy and expectation suddenly turned into sorrow and sobbing.
Cheng Shi was also shocked because he had not heard any sound outside the door before.
Looking at the innocent little girl crying in fear, he could only force out a friendly smile and said awkwardly:
"If I say this wasn't me... would you believe me?"
"Wu... um, wu... believe it, I believe it."
The little girl sobbed and wiped her tears, picked up the bag that fell on the ground, turned around to close the door, and then walked silently to Serius' side.
Just by watching this set of actions, Cheng Shi knew that this little girl must be no ordinary person.
Calm, steady, orderly, and without fear.
Even an adult would probably not be as calm as her when facing a suspect holding a bloody dagger. Apart from her personal qualities, the only reason Cheng Shi could think of was that he was wearing a set of armor of a punishment knight, which made the other party not so resistant and suspicious of him.
But if she came here often, she should know that the Punishment Knight did not belong here.
"Was it...painful for him to leave?"
“Sorry, I didn’t see that.
Sir Serius was already dead when I arrived, and this is all I found."
As he spoke, Cheng Shi rubbed his nose and shook the dagger in his hand.
"So... did you see who killed him?"
"Well, I saw a yellow-haired male assassin and a prisoner wearing a prison helmet who broke out of the door. They looked panicked and their hands were covered in blood. I used Thunder to attack the yellow-haired assassin, but he turned into a pile of playing cards and disappeared.
As for the death row prisoner, he ran too fast and I couldn't catch him."
The little girl wiped her tears again, folded her little hands on the back of Serius' old hand and cried for a long time, then followed Cheng Shi's gaze to look at the burnt poker cards on the ground.
"Poker... I don't think I've heard my grandfather talk about this ability. Thank you, I don't think I've seen you before. May I ask who you are..."
“Grinde, little p…girl, my name is Grinde, and I’m a Punishment Knight who was buried under the rubble by the explosion but accidentally discovered the escape passage dug by the prisoners and accidentally fell in.
When I found this place, I found the escaped criminal, so I chased him, but...
