"Eighteen years old, single."
"Twenty-three, with a girlfriend."
After Wu Dou spoke, everyone looked at the bewildered Wu Dou with strange eyes, and then they exchanged glances.
We have a traitor in our midst!
Chapter 313 The Clown Gets High
"Let's put that aside for now. The guy you're talking about is called Tsukishiro Doman, right?"
The blind student went to his cupboard, took out a glass of red wine, poured a glass for everyone except Yingyingying, and then placed a glass of canned juice in front of Yingyingying.
The group ate at the firm. The meal was prepared by two single men, Blind Sheng and Rosen, and it tasted pretty good.
"Yeah. My gut instincts kept warning me, and I was completely panicked. When I left, they even gave me a gift: a note and a joke book. The note said I shouldn't be so expressionless, or I'd never find a girlfriend..."
When asked about the gift that Tsukishiro Domyouji had given him, Rosen's tone was quite subtle.
I thought you were going to give me some amazing gift, but instead you gave me something like this...
"...I never imagined he'd be a psychologist at a university. Are universities this high-end these days...?"
They had originally planned to go directly into the forest to find someone the day before, but after what happened, they decided against it. Now they have an additional task—to eliminate the pursuers and help Rosen complete his hidden mission.
After all, they were also full of resentment about this matter, so if they could kill these guys, they would naturally pick up their knives and stab them hard, and not only stab them, but also turn them around a few times inside.
who are we?
We are players!
The mission is our father, the mission is our life goal, and we will kill whoever the mission tells us to kill.
Of course, if this lousy game doesn't make us happy, then we'll just have to flip the table.
A game with such a high degree of freedom naturally provides the basis for players to overturn the table.
How dare a cricket NPC chase after me!
I'm going to kill you all today!
While you're at it, loot all the supplies and equipment; you might even get an achievement.
"I'm going to pay a visit to that powerful figure in the underworld later. You two, Luo Sen, are coming with me. Wu Dou, you and Ge Shuai, gather some relevant information online."
After eating and drinking his fill, the blind student put on his coat and prepared to go out to start looking for clues.
"Hey, wait a minute, take this first."
Brother Shuai took a blue and white card from his shirt pocket and handed it to the blind student.
Prop - Good Guy Card (1/2)
"...Thank you so much. And you really are a good person."
Upon seeing the prop's name, the blind student looked at the handsome man with pity and sympathy, and expressed his gratitude.
???
Upon sensing the blind student's eerie gaze, Brother Shuai was initially puzzled, but quickly realized what was happening and reached out to salvage his image.
"Wait a minute, it's not what you think! Please don't misunderstand!"
"Duang—"
The door was closed at that moment, leaving behind Ge Shuai, who was still in the posture of reaching out his hand, and Wu Dou, who was turning on his computer.
"Really, it's not what you think..."
------
Tonight, the moon is a full moon.
A clown dressed in all sorts of colors stands atop a building, gazing at the full moon in the sky.
"Don't move, clown! You're surrounded!"
The rooftop door was suddenly kicked open, and the officers from the relevant bureau poured out and surrounded the clown who was admiring the moon.
"My dear audience~ You've finally arrived! I've been waiting so long! Look, look—"
The clown turned around, letting everyone see the withered little flower in his hand.
"But none of that matters—a performance, like fine wine, needs time to mature; the more it accumulates, the grander the performance becomes!"
"So everyone, before the real show begins, let's play a little game to liven things up, hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee—"
The clown laughed loudly, flipped his hands over, revealing a playing card between each finger, and then suddenly flung it out—
The silence was torn apart, and the moonlight in the night sky was also split by the piercing playing card. The smooth surface of the card bore the silvery moonlight, and the clown on the card grinned and laughed wildly.
"defense!"
At the captain's command, a series of random domains instantly unfolded, compressing into green data shields that blocked the playing cards.
“Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding——”
Eight shots in a row.
The playing card struck the shield, then fell limply to the ground as the random area was reclaimed.
Haha, it seems you guys don't know that art is the true power of an explosion.
The clown's smile grew wider and wider, becoming somewhat unsettling to look at.
"What about Si Guoyi?"
Tilting head~
"boom--"
Wisps of smoke rose slowly from a newly formed crater in front of the clown, drifting into the air.
What a pity!
With one hand on his hip and the other on his forehead, he straightened his back and struck a JOJO pose.
"boom--"
Another sniper bullet was dodged by the clown in a strange posture.
"Remnant ~ Hehehe..."
The laughter-filled voice rang out again.
"—"
Invisible fluctuations emanated from all directions, eroding the Joker's spirit, while several sharp mental spikes lurked within, waiting for their chance to strike.
Mind-based spells, illusions mixed with mental attacks.
"Ohhhhhhh~ My brain is trembling! This feeling, this feeling—"
"Sparashi!!!!!!!!! Hahahahahaha, ahahahaha—"
"I'm absolutely ecstatic right now!"
The clown was laughing maniacally, clutching his head, as if he were having a psychotic episode. But when he saw the grim faces of his mage teammates, he knew that the spells had not had a positive effect and had instead provoked the clown.
Eight more playing cards were caught in the clown's hand and violently flung out.
"All-out defense!"
"Unleash your power, open up—"
"Diamond Formation, activate—"
"Standard Shield"
"Muda muda muda muda—I'm so high right now!"
With a flick of his wrists, another eight playing cards were thrown out.
"Ding..." x8
"Ding..." x8
"Ding..." x8
.......
As if the playing cards were inexhaustible, the clown seemed to have gone completely mad, slamming countless cards against the shield with force, the sound of the impact ringing out incessantly, which was irritating.
"Cala...Cala..."
"Ding--"
“Galala——”
The multiple-layered shield shattered as a playing card, swung by the Joker, struck the random area.
Eight playing cards printed with a laughing clown shot out from the gaps in the chaotic energy fragments.
Chapter 314 Seeking Truth
It's all an act, an act, all a disguise by Tsukishiro Doman.
Whether it's a jovial clown, a crazed clown, a cold-blooded killer, a dutiful older brother, or a psychologist who likes to slack off—
It's all fake.
Compared to Murasame no Kaname, Tsukimori Michimitsu's body had long since become layers of masks, like the old roots of a tree buried deep in the ground, intertwining with his flesh and blood, and weaving together in his mind, becoming an inseparable whole.
He admires the actions of people in this world, and especially loves the authenticity they reveal after they tear off their masks.
The more realistic a drama is, the more captivating it becomes.
This is the only thing that is true.
Is it sad?
Yes, any normal person would find this very sad.
But what if we strip away those hypocritical, boring masks and other trivialities?
sad
bored
s, b
Funny
Pretty
fear
disgust
interesting
This is the truth, the truth that "Moon Guardian of the Way" yearns for.
Laugh at me all you want, pity me all you want—
Because all of you are actors belonging to the "World" theater—
And I am the only audience member in the drama of "life".
------
Taking advantage of the chaos and cover, the playing cards shot out through the tiny gaps.
Although some people reacted quickly and dodged the playing cards in time, some people were still cut by the cards, and bloody marks appeared on their bodies, with a series of blood beads flowing down.
The playing cards were also stuck to the ground.
"Hey hey hey~"
The clown let out an enigmatic laugh.
