Chapter 595: Chapter 594: Brother Cheng, You’ve Lied to Us So Much

Just hearing these examples, you can tell she’s talking nonsense.

Shu Ran couldn’t wait to expose Shi Yuhuai’s true nature, and directly said: "He said he’s a doctor, with some English and numbers in the name, it’s a series."

Guan Yu wanted to stop her but it was too late: "Great, now she’s got inspiration for more nonsense."

If she said it herself, they could at least compare it with Li Yang’s "statement" to see if Li Yang is lying, or if Mu Qiu is using it to deceive Li Yang and eventually them.

Now Shu Ran has given a direction, well, now Mu Qiu can make up a brilliant story based on this information.

Shu Ran was taken aback, and realized it too, but she had already said it and couldn’t take it back, so she furrowed her brows in regret, covered her face, and sighed.

It’s over, now she can’t release the marketing material.

Mu Qiu smiled with squinted eyes, successfully catching Shu Ran’s hint, and inwardly cursed Li Yang for learning to deceive people.

"He told you all this?" She turned her head with a fake smile towards Li Yang for two seconds, then quickly dropped the smile and started rambling.

"Li Yang, you’ve really changed! It’s fine if you don’t want to form an alliance, but you even took my four pieces of bread and ran off! You not only took the bread but also told them everything I said!"

Li Yang was dumbfounded: "... When did I take your four pieces of bread?!"

"You won’t admit it! I originally only gave you two as a bribe, but you wanted to bring two for Sister Guan Yu and them. You said if I gave you two more, you’d agree to an alliance, but then you grabbed the bread and ran!"

Being cued, Guan Yu said: "Hmm??? What two pieces of bread for me? When did this happen, I never saw any bread?"

Mu Qiu gasped dramatically, widened her eyes and continued looking at Li Yang: "You took them and that’s fine, I’ll take it as a blessing to humanity, but you didn’t even give them to Sister Guan Yu? Did you eat them all by yourself on the way?!"

Upon hearing this, Guan Yu couldn’t take it anymore.

"Li Yang, you wastrel! Those were pieces of bread! Aren’t they better than a few peanuts?! You actually kept them all to yourself! Spit them out now!"

Li Yang: "......" This unjust blame came way too suddenly.

Chen Yi, hiding behind Shi Yuhuai, laughed, and Chu Qiu also joined the act, exaggeratedly falling back, being caught by Han Xizheng, and then reaching out with a shaky finger at Li Yang, though slightly off-center to avoid pointing directly at him.

That hand shook like Parkinson’s, mouth trembling too, speaking in a voice like an old quad-plegic nearing the end of life: "My, my bread, the bread that should have been bitten by me..."

Han Xizheng held back his laughter so much that his masseter muscle was about to expand.

This time Shi Yuhuai didn’t ridicule, but joined in as an accomplice, seriously criticizing Li Yang:

"Li Yang, you also strayed from the right path. You promised to bring us the bread, how could you eat them all on the way before coming to us?"

"... I didn’t! I really didn’t!!!"

Mu Qiu, earnest in her persuasion: "Don’t deny it. Look at the crowd of people behind you, so hungry their eyes are turning green, don’t you feel guilty at all?"

"... Mu Qiu, stop slandering me! Or I’ll reveal more of your secrets!"

"Oh, wow, you’ve even learned to threaten people now. Go on, what other secrets do I have?"

She grinned, appearing not worried at all. Only Li Yang saw the threat in her eyes.

The card in her hand was a powerful tool that could wipe out a group of people with just a few words.

Although when Guan Yu and Shu Ran searched her pockets earlier he hadn’t seen that shiny golden card, it was certainly on her.

Li Yang swallowed the pain, his fake smile was very forced.

"I don’t really have any secrets anymore."

"Truly an honest child," Mu Qiu said, satisfied, "but I just discovered another clue when I came over."

Cheng Zhirang: "Oh? Let’s hear it?"

She didn’t speak, sitting cross-legged, arms crossed, like a noble pet waiting to be fed.

"A red envelope."

"Very good. When I just came over, I found a photographer going in and out at the museum entrance."

Everyone knows, if there’s a photographer in a place with no people, there must be a catch.

She scanned everyone’s reactions, looking like it might be true.

Actually, they hadn’t been to the museum entrance nor seen any photographers.

Zhao Yu quietly poked her from behind, didn’t ask anything, just cooperated blindly:

"And as soon as the photographer saw us, he hid inside, acting very suspiciously. When we looked inside from the entrance, no one could be seen."

The cooperation was so seamless, Mu Qiu felt refreshed, and naturally continued the next sentence.

"Just like the previous epiphyllum monster, disappeared without a trace. But with so many strong men, they’re not an epiphyllum monster, how could they just vanish suddenly?"

There must be a partition inside.

This was their speculation along the way.

Shen Zhousong disappeared at the museum, Cheng Zhirang brought a bunch of people to get 813 to parasitize inside the museum. So many people went in but didn’t find Shen Zhousong, there must be some partition-like construction inside.

Already hinted at this point, Mu Qiu then fueled the flames a bit before making her successful exit.

"Brother Cheng, I’m not trying to discriminate against you, but this is a bit odd. Has Brother Shen really been eliminated?"

Everybody standing, squatting, and sitting there weren’t fools, they could certainly figure out the trickery involved.

Shen Zhousong wasn’t eliminated, but secretly hidden, why hide? Why did Cheng Zhirang bring them to the museum to search for clues afterward?

Is the first card in his hands?

Guan Yu thought it over from start to finish, then pulled Chu Qiu back, pressed against the wall like a gecko, far away from Cheng Zhirang.

"Brother Cheng, you’ve deceived us terribly!"

Cheng Zhirang: "......"

Shu Ran and Shi Yuhuai also backed away, Chen Yi looked in disbelief, asking Cheng Zhirang: "Brother Cheng, is it really you?"

Cheng Zhirang released his grip from Li Yang’s shoulder, stood up to face them: "What about me?"

Ah, such a scene, stance, and tone, it was so much like the exposure scene of a big boss in a reverse crime drama.

Mu Qiu silently backed away, pretending she was just an innocent bystander who accidentally discovered a big secret after entering the museum.

Guan Yu pressed herself even tighter against the wall, quickly and accurately voicing an almost certain guess.

"You’re the one who hid Shen Zhousong, you got the first docket card, you tricked us into going to the museum, you’re trying to massacre us. Brother Cheng, you’re simply ruthless, luring so many of us in, planning to take us out in one fell swoop?"

Saying such serious analysis with expressions still showing "you treacherous man, you’ve deceived us so much" and "the heart you hurt can trust who" feelings.

Compared to her, Chu Qiu was even more dramatic, pressed against the wall as if he were tied up there awaiting execution.

Cheng Zhirang almost mistook the focus, wanting to explain he had nothing to do with her at all.
