Chapter 989: Who is Six of Hearts?
Who is Six of Hearts?
Fang Liangye stopped in his tracks.
It wasn't dawn on the surface yet. A hazy glimmer of light projected down from the open manhole cover, like a mood spotlight on a dim Stage.
"What do you need?" Fang Liangye turned his head to look at Chen Ling.
The Heart Python on Fang Liangye's shoulder slowly moved away. He vaguely felt that he had overlooked something, but he didn't recall it at this moment, just staring into "Jia Chen's" eyes.
"I'm a bit curious, exactly who are you?" Chen Ling asked.
Hearing this, Fang Liangye's eyebrows furrowed tightly... His first reaction was that his Dusk Society identity was about to be exposed.
But he indeed performed a bit too conspicuously just now. On the Rat Party's turf, demanding them to break out in reverse, almost causing unnecessary casualties. At this time, it was also reasonable for "Jia Chen" to raise questions.
"Who I am isn't important, but I harbor no malice towards you." Fang Liangye glanced at the open manhole cover above. "I know you don't trust me right now, it's fine. Since we've already escaped alive, I won't follow you guys anymore."
Chen Ling's eyes narrowed slightly.
Just as he planned to ask something more, in the dim passage behind them, a figure rushed toward them rapidly. The sweeping gale ruffled the hems of their clothes.
The two were startled and turned to look simultaneously!
One had to know, this passage was the "Door" specifically prepared by Durand. Besides their group, who else could come out from inside?
Could it be...
Fang Liangye's eyes instantly lit up.
Whoosh——!
A figure in black clothes with a wolf-tail hairstyle stood steadily in front of the two. His hair fluttered with the blowing airflow, giving people a sharp and powerful oppressive feeling.
The moment he saw him, Fang Liangye was subconsciously forced half a step back by the other party's Aura, and a look of joy appeared on his face!
Not a Fire-Stealer!
In this chaotic battlefield today, there were only three factions in total: the Fire-Stealers of the Path of the Thief, the Rat Party of the Path of the Witch God, and the Queen of Diamonds of the Dusk Society...
This "oppressive" man before him clearly didn't belong to the first two. Since that was the case, his identity was already vividly portrayed...
He was the Queen of Diamonds who came all the way to rendezvous with him after seeing his marks!
At the same time,
Chen Ling's heart also jolted!
"How could it be him..." Chen Ling muttered to himself in his heart.
The wolf-tail man before him was none other than Senior Fitter Jian Changsheng, who slept in the upper bunk above him in the factory back in the early years!
The Silver King's ability was to "graft" the core memories of Chen Ling and Fang Liangye. The people they knew wouldn't change, only their identities and interpersonal relationships were changed, slipped into another "Role"...
Just like the current Chen Ling. He possessed Fang Liangye's memories, but he knew Ying Fu. In his memories, Ying Fu was a good friend who advised him not to commit suicide in his early years. He also knew Chi Tong, and Chi Tong was the popcorn vendor at the factory gate back then.
As for the wolf-tail man before him, Chen Ling was even more familiar with him. After all, they slept in bunk beds every day, and their relationship was quite good.
But Fang Liangye didn't know Jian Changsheng before, so seeing him now, he naturally couldn't recognize him either.
And at this time, Jian Changsheng's gaze swept over Chen Ling and Fang Liangye's faces...
Then he got straight to the point:
"Which one of you is Six of Hearts?!"
Jian Changsheng had followed the marks left by Six of Hearts all the way here. Now only Chen Ling and Fang Liangye were left here, so Six of Hearts was naturally among them. But because the part about Six of Hearts in his memories was completely stolen away, he was also completely ignorant at this time.
Before Chen Ling could react, Fang Liangye at the side spoke plainly:
"It's me, Senior."
Chen Ling: ?????
Chen Ling looked at Fang Liangye, his expression incomparably strange!
To tell the truth, seeing Fang Liangye's familiar performance just now, Chen Ling already had doubts in his heart. After all, Chen Ling knew very well that the person who exchanged memories with him was a local Ordinary Person in the Wuji Domain. Yet Fang Liangye not only mixed in with the Rat Party as an Ordinary Person, but his thought process and behavior were very similar to his own.
Leaving Fang Liangye alone was also to verify the thoughts in his heart... But he didn't expect a Senior Fitter to pop out halfway, and Fang Liangye directly jumped out and acknowledged his identity as "Six of Hearts".
So Chen Ling's conjecture wasn't wrong. The Fang Liangye before him was the person who had been grafted with his original memories!
"So you are Hearts..." Jian Changsheng looked Fang Liangye up and down, looking thoughtful.
Just now "Hearts" called him "Senior", indicating that he entered the Dusk Society earlier than the other party... Hehe, turns out "Hearts" respects him quite a bit.
For some reason, Jian Changsheng felt very refreshed, and every pore on his body stretched open.
But this "Hearts" looks a bit weak, huh?
Jian Changsheng didn't care too much about this point. After all, the other party calling him senior meant the other party might indeed be lacking in strength, and it was only right for him to protect him.
"Wait!" Chen Ling suddenly spoke. "I am the real Six of Hearts!"
Fang Liangye: ?????
The smile on the corner of Jian Changsheng's mouth suddenly stiffened.
What the hell?!
Why are there two Six of Hearts?!!
Fang Liangye's gaze looking at Chen Ling was incomparably horrified. He seemed to have never imagined that "Jia Chen", who had escorted them all the way, would jump out at this time and backstab him in this way!
At this moment, the details that were ignored just now flooded Fang Liangye's mind. As if realizing something, he pointed at Chen Ling and said:
"No... that's not right!! The memories don't match... Just now he stole away everyone's doubt! He is a Fire-Stealer! A Fire-Stealer who stole 'Jia Chen's' face!"
Jian Changsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Chen Ling, his eyes full of vigilance.
"I'm not a Fire-Stealer, I am Six of Hearts." Chen Ling directly tore off Jia Chen's face, revealing his original appearance, and looked at Jian Changsheng. "Dusk Society members should all know that Six of Hearts is of the Path of the Actor, not the Path of the Thief."
Jian Changsheng was at a loss for a moment,
"Is that so... Should... should I know?"
"Don't trust him." Fang Liangye said in a deep voice. "To the Silver King, both memories and abilities can be stolen at will. The power that belongs to me should have also been stolen, otherwise I wouldn't have been reduced to an Ordinary Person..."
Jian Changsheng: ...
Looking at the two "Six of Hearts" before him, Jian Changsheng only felt like his head was going to split open...
He never thought that after running all the way from the Tianshu Domain, he would actually encounter such an inconceivable situation... It wasn't that Jian Changsheng didn't want to distinguish which one was the real Six of Hearts, but he himself genuinely didn't know either!
Jian Changsheng had never thought so hard before. Gritting his teeth, a method to distinguish the true and fake Six of Hearts rushed into his mind!
