Chapter 996

The atmosphere at the scene instantly tightened. The players who were originally waiting in the backstage flocked into the arena, standing on tiptoe and peeking, for fear of missing this sudden good show.

On the stage, the staff members had no hesitation. In front of the entire audience and the camera, they directly disassembled Shen Xing's mouse and keyboard. As their fingertips flew, every part was carefully inspected, not letting go of any suspicious traces. The camera was firmly locked on this scene, and even tiny scratches were clearly visible.

Guo Yu clutched his phone, his arm held high, his fingertips pressing hard on the shooting button. The camera zoomed in desperately, capturing the staff's disassembly actions clearly. The excitement he couldn't hide was on his face, and the uncontrollable anticipation surged in his eyes. His heart was pounding—so, witnessing a "good show" with his own eyes was actually so stimulating.

However...

Fifteen minutes later, the staff reassembled the disassembled mouse and keyboard. They turned around and shook their heads gently at the person in charge, their voice clearly transmitted to the whole arena through the microphone: "No cheating tools were found. Both the mouse and keyboard are normal and comply with competition regulations."

Hearing this reply, the leading staff member's expression didn't fluctuate much. He was just checking according to the rules, unrelated to personal inclination. After confirming there was no mistake, he handed the mouse and keyboard back to Shen Xing and solemnly explained to the camera: "The inspection is qualified. Player Shen Xing does not have any cheating behavior, and his match results are true and valid."

Shen Xing reached out to take the equipment, his expression calm from beginning to end, as if the thrilling inspection just now had nothing to do with him. No grievance, no anger, only the usual calmness.

Bai Lianghe under the stage let out a long sigh of relief, his fingertips unconsciously loosening, and his palms were already covered with thin sweat. Even though he unconditionally believed in Shen Xing from the bottom of his heart, the tense scene and oppressive atmosphere just now still made him feel tight in his heart, and only now did he completely let go.

Sang Hui's expression also gradually eased, her tight corners of her mouth relaxed slightly, and the worry in her eyes faded. She also believed in Shen Xing.

In the whole arena, only two people were completely dumbfounded: Guo Yu and Ou Wen.

Guo Yu froze in place, forgetting to put down the arm holding the phone, the camera still fixed on Shen Xing's equipment. After a long while, he found his voice, his tone full of unbelievable murmurs: "How is it possible... how could this happen..."

His voice was neither loud nor soft, just drifting into Sang Hui's ears. Sang Hui turned her head, looking at the dejected Guo Yu with some doubt in her eyes, and asked softly: "What do you mean by that?"

Guo Yu slowly lowered his hand, his eyes disappointed and empty, obviously unable to accept this result.

This flawless plan, as long as Ou Wen was willing to do it, would have been 100% successful.

He obviously couldn't hear Sang Hui's words anymore, his whole person immersed in the unwillingness of the plan's failure, the feeling of huge anticipation falling through...

It was too uncomfortable!

He had never been so uncomfortable!

How could it fail, why did it fail?

Ou Wen, this piece of trash, couldn't even do such a simple thing. He had clearly arranged everything, and he just had to follow it obediently.

Where exactly did the problem go wrong?

And, if there was no chip of his in Shen Xing's equipment, that is to say, all the operations he performed today were completely performed by his own technology?

Had he progressed to such a point?

Guo Yu felt more and more uncomfortable the more he thought about it, his chest feeling like it was blocked by something, and even his breathing was not smooth.

Then he turned around and walked out without saying a word. Seeing this, Sang Hui hurriedly asked: "What are you doing?"

"Going out for a smoke."

Then, ignoring Sang Hui, he walked out quickly.

Sang Hui didn't chase after him, but Guo Yu's abnormal emotions just now were like a thorn, quietly pricking her heart—his reaction was too wrong.

As soon as Shen Xing got off the stage, Xu Qinmei greeted him: "Shen Xing, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, don't be affected, compete well later," Shen Xing said in a calm tone.

The team coach on the side was still indignant: "Damn, which idiot had nothing to do and reported blindly? Don't let me find out!"

"Shen Xing, you too, you must not be affected. Fortunately, the organizing committee disassembled and inspected it on the spot, directly clearing your name. We are upright and not afraid of shadows."

"I'm fine, coach, it was just a bit sudden, I won't be affected," Shen Xing said.

The coach patted his shoulder with satisfaction: "That's good, keep working hard in the next match. You eliminated last year's finalist, which shows that you are expected to enter the finals this year, so you must stay steady."

Shen Xing smiled slightly and nodded.

At this time, in a quiet corner outside the venue, Guo Yu was losing his temper at Ou Wen.

"Didn't you say everything was handled?!" Guo Yu's voice roared, carrying extreme anger. The emotions accumulated in his heart completely erupted, pouring all onto Ou Wen, "Why was there nothing in that keyboard? Huh? You tell me!"

Ou Wen looked at Guo Yu, not afraid of him, but he was equally shocked: "I don't know either. I put the chip in according to your method. How would I know there was nothing inside when it was disassembled?"

"Did you fucking get discovered?" Guo Yu asked.

Ou Wen firmly stated: "Impossible, I was the only one in the room at the time."

Moreover, the player waiting rooms were temporarily built by the competition group before the match, and there was no surveillance inside, so no one would find out.

The matter thus became even more bizarre!

Guo Yu was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "Then what the fuck is going on? Where is the chip? Huh?"

All the results pointed to the fact that Ou Wen hadn't done anything at all, and Guo Yu began to suspect that Ou Wen had backstabbed him.

"I offered you five times the price, and you still dare to lie to me? Are you trying to get something for nothing? Wanting to earn my money without doing anything, is that it?"

Ou Wen's expression darkened. The matter might not have succeeded, but he couldn't be wronged.

He immediately roared: "I fucking did it, I really did it, but I don't know why it wasn't found either, but I just did it. It wasn't for your money, I did it for myself, fuck!"

Guo Yu looked up at the sky and sighed, his chest heaving violently, and then he kicked the trash can next to him fiercely. With a loud "clatter," the trash can was kicked over. He looked at Ou Wen and let out a helpless cold sneer: "Fine, you say you did it, but there was nothing in the keyboard. Could it be that it's haunted? Or did the chip grow legs and run away, or grow wings and fly away?!"

Guo Yu's mouth moved, already powerless to say anything else, because the result could no longer be changed.

Who knew that in the next second, Sang Hui's voice suddenly sounded from behind Guo Yu: "Guo Yu..."
