Chapter 794 Speculation
Qin Shang;???
You are such a talent!
It was obviously you who made up the dirty rumor about me, and you still think you are right?
However, the next moment, when Qin Shang met his wife's aggrieved eyes, all his anger instantly disappeared.
As a man, just bear with it. It’s not a big deal. Just explain the misunderstanding.
I have nothing to do with Master Yin, and my wife is just worried that I might be turned into a lesbian and she’s jealous…
The fact that she is jealous of men shows that she recognizes my charm that appeals to both men and women, doesn't it?
Look, this is why, as the saying goes, you must find a good-looking wife.
Even if someone has a bad temper, they must find a good reason.
Even when we are arguing, staring at a beautiful face is still a pleasure to watch. When facing a woman's unreasonable behavior, I always find it cute instead of thinking that this bitch is angry with me!
Oh no, not even most of the time.
Once the wife gives in a little, normal men won’t be able to argue anymore. Instead, they think her fierceness is a little cute…
"how about you?"
"I want to investigate the identities of the people on the ship that came from Jincheng today. I also want to meet the old accountant, Mr. Luo's lover. I always feel that there is something fishy about the accounting."
"You go find Yin Shisan first and claim that you didn't meet me along the way. Your husband is the one who licks cockroach feet fiercely, whether in or outside the dungeon."
"Given Yin Shisan's personality, he will definitely think that we are in the same group in the dungeon after hearing this!"
"Then you can gain Master Yin's trust for a short time and hold him back."
"You can even use some clues in your hand to know where I might appear and say something like that, and lead Yin Shisan around Xitang Town."
"Anyway, remember, try not to reveal your other identities before I take the initiative to show up."
"And there is one more thing. Seeing that you and Yin Shisan are together, the mastermind who tried to hide in the dark and frame the roles we played in the copy will definitely not sit still and wait for death..."
Halfway through his words, Qin Shang held Jiang Qiqi's shoulders with both hands, his eyes showing worry and seriousness;
"You have to be careful."
After saying this, Qin Shang felt relieved when he saw the woman nod obediently.
In fact, he was 80% sure that Jiang Qiqi would not stay by Yin Shisan's side all the time, but out of trust between husband and wife, he thought Jiang Qiqi would do her best to delay and buy time for him.
Unless time is completely insufficient and Jiang Qiqi has to complete her own main task, she will separate from Master Yin. Otherwise, before that, the woman will probably keep an eye on Yin Shisan's movements to help herself get the opportunity to investigate the mastermind behind the copy and the real culprit of the explosion.
"Speaking of which, there shouldn't be any players with strength exceeding the Rule Realm in the training dungeon, right?"
Hearing this, Jiang Qiqi glanced at him;
"Who said that?"
"Isn't that what I am?"
Gaden——
Qin Shang's heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that there are other players in the Rule Realm in the training copy?
Then it seems not so safe to let Jiang Qiqi stay with Yin Shisan, who is "invincible under the rules, one-for-one against the rules".
"Okay, can you please stop treating me like a powerless burden?"
"I am at least a serious Rule Realm player, but you are just a level 3 Law Realm rookie."
"I will be careful not to reveal my identity around Yin Shisan, and do my best to prevent him from doubting my role in the dungeon, but..."
Jiang Qiqi paused, dragged out a long tone, and stared at Qin Shang with bright and wise eyes;
"Let's set a time. Twelve hours later, that is, before ten o'clock tomorrow morning, we must meet at the lake outside the city, where you fell into the water today."
"Whether you have investigated the identity of the mastermind or not, we must meet to ensure each other's safety."
It hits it off.
"This is a great idea!"
Qin Shang curled the corners of his lips and chuckled.
"Row!"
"Oh, by the way, when we get to the shore, Master Yin will definitely bring people to confirm the identities of those who died on the boat today. I will go to see the owner of Hongguang Machinery Factory and confirm with him the names of the politicians, sheriffs, and traitors who came from Jincheng today."
"We can check who is dead and who is not dead tomorrow morning."
"The person you want to kill is most likely also a player, and he has fallen into the water within the past two hours just like the two of us. If you follow Yin Shisan, you might have a chance to run into your target."
"But honey, don't act rashly. Wait for me! You must wait for me!"
Jiang Qiqi noticed the concern in the man's eyes and nodded sweetly.
"Yeah~"
The two decided on the next course of action, which was to change into clean clothes in the room, simply wipe off the stains on their bodies and leave.
At this moment, the sky in the copy became completely dark, and Qin Shang left before Jiang Qiqi.
Before leaving, he shamelessly kissed his wife's delicate and fair face twice, and then walked out of the staff dormitory with satisfaction.
When I walked out of the corridor, I was still wondering whether I should take out the 'Taoist robe', a prop that I hadn't used for a long time.
After all, modern cities in the 90s did not have as many street lights as they do now, especially in summer. The urban power grid at that time was not as safe as it is now. There were even people stealing wires and manhole covers in that era, and there would be power outages at night.
It was dark, and Qin Shang didn't have the ability of "night vision" and was easily tricked by others...
Don't forget, at this moment, there is a mastermind in the copy who is staring at the couple covetously.
You have to be on guard against others, as there are more than a hundred players in this copy.
In other words, everyone you meet next is likely to be a player.
"If only I had Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet, I could eliminate half of the players first."
Ugh!
The thought of going crazy flashed through my mind.
Qin Shang shook his head again and collected his thoughts.
"I just don't know if other people's main quests are also centered around the explosion outside Xitang Town. If I were the Shenlu server, oh no, that's not right... this copy was not created by the server!"
"In fact, it can be considered as an indirect creation of the 'Lightning King' who once controlled the 'Black Tower'. According to the character of the Lightning King, if I were him, what kind of identities would I assign to each player in this dungeon?"
"Jiang Qiqi and I are in the same group. If we can prove that the explosion was not caused by Jiang Qiqi, then we may be able to win the boss's trust. In other words, Master Yin and we can be considered half of one."
"Our main storyline and missions are basically related to the people who came to Jiangcheng to hunt down the descendants of Sakurajima and the people hiding on the ship that harbored the spies in Xitang Town."
"Then, the other players are likely related to the plot of the mastermind, such as the guy who wanted to frame my husband and me and his companions, as well as the other employees and leaders of Hongguang Machinery Factory."
"Hmm...it's very likely that there are many players like Jiang Qiqi who are descendants of Sakurajima people in the dungeon."
"If Jiang Qiqi is the only descendant of the Sakurajima people in Xitang Town, then there is no need to alarm the neighboring Jincheng and send a team of people to arrest her. Therefore, these people are also suspicious candidates that affect the direction and thinking of the investigation."
"Everyone is doing their own thing, which can be regarded as a distraction tool provided by Shenlu to mislead players to find the real culprit."
"But in other words, if the mastermind who wanted to kill me and frame Jiang Qiqi were the same person, what was the purpose of the person who wanted to kill me? What was he after? Was it an accounting issue?"
"Let me, an accountant, take the blame and die without a burial place. By then, no matter what problems there are in the accounts of Hongguang Machinery Factory, I, an accountant, will have disappeared without a single witness. This may be the reason why someone wants to kill me, but deliberately involving my wife seems a bit of an exaggeration, right? Do they have to kill a group of sheriffs from other places for this?"
"What kind of feeling is this? Just for a dish of vinegar, I specially made a plate of dumplings..."
"So if this is the possibility, I must be missing some key motivations and clues..."
Qin Shang thought as he walked.
He didn't notice at all that when he went downstairs, at the end of the open balcony-shaped corridor not far away, a Shamatte young man with colorfully dyed hair and a pompadour was staring in the direction he was leaving with his head tilted, looking thoughtful.
