Chapter 123 Trust and Lies
Damn it, did you hook up with a rich woman so quickly?
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Huai Shi would never believe it.
This seemed to be the teammate who did not meet them in the corridor.
Seeing the look of you and me as if there was no one else around, with only true love in their eyes, Huai Shi and the others were blinded by his operation.
its not right.
Are you the Cowherd or am I the Cowherd?
Wait, I'm not here either...
"It seems that he is probably a shady person."
Ai Qing's voice was cold: "If this cousin of mine really has any redeeming qualities, then it just depends on people's looks, right?
Especially when it comes to pleasing such an old guy, he is simply a genius..."
"Let's order first."
Lao Xiao sighed and looked away. He must have seen his colleague make a debut so quickly, and the inspector must have had mixed feelings.
Not long after, Ni Heng came back triumphantly after bidding farewell to his 'girlfriend'. He seemed to want to show off his communication skills. However, after seeing the complicated expressions on his teammates' faces, he curled his lips and said nothing.
It is commendable that although the time is 1620, the dishes on the menu are fully in line with modern times. Even with Huai Shi's ability to order some dishes at random, he was able to order quite good dishes.
At this time, KP's voice suddenly sounded: "Now that everyone is almost here, you can conduct a 'reconnaissance'."
Immediately afterwards, Huaishi heard the sound of dice rolling, as if the KP was judging everyone's investigative skills.
Soon, he heard KP's surprised voice.
"86? Shocked! You haven't passed the detection point up to 85. How wrong are you?"
Ai Qing said nothing.
Huaishi's eyes blurred for a moment, and then she realized that the restaurant was crowded with people. It was so chaotic that she didn't see anything.
I mourned silently in my heart. On a hundred-point dice, I could succeed within 85, but the result was a little off... What happened to this bad luck?
Fortunately, Lao Xiao and others were not able to hide even this bit of information. With their prompts, Huai Shi quickly noticed a few people who were almost quite conspicuous among the many tourists.
Well, it is conspicuous in the eyes of others, but it is ordinary in Huai Shi's eyes.
In the center of the restaurant, sitting on a table filled with various dishes, was a bronze-skinned young man with pale golden patterns painted on his face, as if he came from Egypt.
Even though he was sitting at the table, he didn't touch the dishes. Instead, he put his fat cat on the table and let it feast.
In the entire restaurant, it seemed that only that young man's smile was sincere, relaxed and happy.
Then there was the quarrel between the pair...no, it should be said that the elder brother was scolded by one side. It seemed that they were from well-off backgrounds, and both of them behaved quite elegantly and gracefully during the meal. The elder brother who has lost all his teeth can no longer eat and can only sip porridge and thick soup, while the younger sister is not afraid of greasy food and has an amazing appetite.
What was left was a table of 'couples' who seemed to be inseparable from each other. The wife was wearing heavy makeup and had an aura of dust that could not be concealed, but the husband was as ugly as a goldfish with big eyeballs, and his face was abnormally pale.
Finally, there was Clement sitting silently in the corner, staring blankly at the waves outside the window, saying nothing and not eating.
"I'm afraid these are the important plot characters."
Lao Xiao pondered for a moment and then said: "I wonder what you think of the secret KP told?"
"Stop talking." Ai Qing's voice suddenly sounded in Huai Shi's ears: "The other people's faces."
The sound of the dice sounded, and Ai Qing used her detection skills.
In an instant, Huai Shi saw the changes in everyone's expressions: Lao Xiao's expression was calm as if he had already planned something, Lei Feizhou's expression became alert, Yue Jun's eyes were curious, and only Ni Heng, also known as Yin Yan, The character card shows a trace of resistance and unhappiness...
There was no doubt that Lao Xiao was also observing everyone's expressions, but Huai Shi looked like a clay puppet with a calm face and no reaction.
It looks inscrutable.
"Tsk, Lao Xiao's inspector got the better of him."
Ai Qing glanced at the old inspector with a calm face. She suspected that he was the first person to notice the 'cognitive impairment' mentioned by KP.
She originally planned to ask this question first to take the initiative, but she didn't expect that she was overtaken by the delay.
"What's the use?"
"Be able to make basic judgments." Ai Qing explained: "Lao Xiao aside, Lei Feizhou is more sensitive to this issue, so it can be judged that his secret is more important. Yue Jun's inspector's secret is relatively speaking It doesn’t matter, but Yin Yan’s reaction is quite interesting... Just don’t say anything and let’s see what Lao Xiao has to say next.”
"I don't mean to inquire about your secrets. On the contrary, I think it is right to have some reservations until we are sure that we can trust each other."
Lao Xiao continued: "However, after all, this module requires us to work together to pass the level. I think before that, everyone might as well reveal some relatively insignificant information to build further trust, how about it?"
Yin Yan frowned: "What do you want to ask?"
"Stigmata." Lao Xiao said slowly: "Our stigmata won't reveal any secrets, right? Besides, if we want to join forces, this is also basic information, right? If you want to keep it secret, as long as you don't reveal the inherent Just skills and talent.”
There was silence.
"What do you want to say?" Huai Shi asked.
Ai Qing's tone was calm: "Never be the first to eat crabs. Let others take the lead. All you need to do is look at Lao Xiao - it's not that simple if you want to be a free wolf."
In the silence, Lao Xiao remained calm. Seeing that no one spoke, he could only take the lead and said: "Mine is a third-level St. Mark Stitcher from the declining pedigree."
The Stitches, collectively known as 'Frankensteins', are a new type of stigmata that was born after combining alchemy and tombstone genealogy. They have only existed for five hundred years and are a relatively unorthodox type.
However, the main enhancement should be the basic attributes of the body. In short, it prevents high blood and thick blood. As for the other things, Lao Xiao did not disclose it.
While talking, Lao Xiao rolled up his cuffs, revealing stitching marks on his arms and two patches of skin with completely different skin tones, proving the truth of what he said.
Lao Xiao will be honest first.
Immediately afterwards, Yue Jun, who had always had no sense of existence, was the first to respond and said his stigmata: "Third Order·Headless Horseman."
This is a quite famous stigmata, and there is no need to explain too much. As he spoke, Yue Jun pulled down his collar, revealing the circular scar on his neck that looked like a beheading.
Immediately after Lei Feizhou, he directly ejected five slender and sharp claws like blades, and quickly put them away: "Level 3 Werewolf."
In the end, only Yinyan and Huaishi were left.
Sensing Huai Shi's gaze, Yin Yan suddenly became angry: "Look at what I'm doing, you tell me first!"
"You've already opened your mouth, why don't you say it first?" Huai Shi asked, "Are you still afraid that I won't tell you after listening?"
Yinyan was speechless for a moment, and after muttering for a long time, he said unhappily: "Second Level·Red Hat."
As he spoke, his figure blurred and became translucent in an instant.
Red Hat is the prototype of the legendary goblins, goblins and other monsters... He is best at sneak attacks, thefts and hiding. When he is invisible, it is difficult for even most equipment and third-level ascenders to see through him. , it can be said to be a very survivable stigma.
But everyone was at the third level, and he was the only one at the second level, which made him feel extremely embarrassed. After he finished speaking, he glared at Huai Shi: "What about you? Don't run away after hearing this."
There was a trace of expectation in his angry expression, as if he expected Huai Shi to be a first-level person, lower than himself.
Huai Shi smiled slightly and was about to speak when she heard Ai Qing's voice: "Don't tell the truth. Tell them that you are a third-level evil spirit from the Nordic pedigree."
Although she was confused, Huai Shi did not disobey, and followed Ai Qing's command, reaching out to grab Yin Yan's wrist.
The cold fingers seemed to frighten him. He quickly broke away and looked at Huai Shi warily: "What do you want to do?"
"Prove it. How can you prove it without taking some source of essence from you?"
Huai Shi asked: "Are you showing yourself in public?"
In fact, in the legend, as the soul that attaches to the human body after the death of a demon, the appearance of evil spirits is quite similar to that of vampires. Their faces are pale and corpse-like, with no body temperature, their bodies are cold, and they have a sinister temperament and blood-red pupils.
Even the fighting style is characterized by swiftness and weirdness. The only difference is that one sucks blood and the other sucks souls, and the types of food should not be too the same.
As long as Huaishi doesn't suck blood in public, the secret should not be revealed for a long time.
And no one on the table dared to be bold enough to have their essence extracted by an evil spirit. What if Huai Shi was a young boy who got high and took the time to talk to someone to reason with?
"Okay, okay, don't make any noise."
Seeing that the two people were about to fight, Lao Xiao intervened in the middle. After the two people finally calmed down, he made the final conclusion: "It seems that everyone's stigmata are dark creatures?"
No matter in terms of characteristics or appearance, this category alone cannot be concealed.
Everyone belongs to the evil group in the legend...
"Why did you lie?" Huai Shi asked quietly, "The possibility of revealing the truth is quite high, right?"
"Are you stupid? Didn't you hear what Lao Xiao said just now? Everyone is a dark creature, a dark creature... Don't forget, you are from the Holy Spirit lineage!"
After Ai Qing reminded him, Huai Shi realized that he was fucking Van Helsing, a demon hunter!
Wait...Does that mean I'm that kid?
For a moment, he suddenly felt a little scared. When he looked at these people, they looked like thugs and allies brought by Parasus Ser.
"Besides, Lao Xiao may not be hiding anything from you." Ai Qing reminded: "A suture line and two pieces of skin with different colors can't explain anything. Even the stigma of suturing people may be a disguise to mislead you. Except for Yue Jun’s features, which cannot be disguised, everyone else may be lying.”
The affection for her teammates that had just emerged in Huaishi's heart instantly cooled down.
This is the most disgusting thing about secrets.
Once suspicion begins, everything becomes questionable.
Just as he was looking elsewhere with his thoughts full of thoughts, he suddenly heard the sound of dice. KP seemed to have made some decision by rolling the dice, and then Huai Shi suddenly saw the figure in the corner of the restaurant.
The silver-haired girl we met once when we boarded the ship.
And the handkerchief she carried with her.
He vaguely remembered that the letters on it...
