Chapter 164: The Secret of Hidden Achievements! Don't Doubt Me Next Time!

~7 min read 1,311 words

Starting from this logic...

It wasn't impossible.

After all, if he were gay, he definitely wouldn't kill everyone.

If he killed everyone, who would he choose in the end?

But Su Yang was puzzled by one point—

Why did Tang Youning remind him to be careful?

"What kind of agreement did they reach in secret?" Su Yang rubbed his temples with a headache.

He had to figure out Jiang Hua's sexual orientation next.

Whether it was bisexual or homosexual.

A group of people plotting to murder Huangfu Shu, the intention behind it wasn't just as simple as purely eliminating threats.

Going to such great lengths to kill someone, yet deliberately leaving flaws.

This didn't fit the logic of a criminal.

Plus the possibility that Tang Youning was being "pig-raised" by Jiang Hua.

Or perhaps the former was raising the latter's pig.

And what was the situation on the girls' side.

Information was basically zero.

"The girls..."

Su Yang glanced at Wang Ning, who was leisurely tasting the dishes, and his heart stirred.

"Do you like animals?"

Wang Ning chewed the reheated food carefully and nodded: "It's okay; I prefer cats."

"Have you raised any?"

"Mm, I raised two, one silver shaded and one American Shorthair."

When mentioning cats, an undisguised look of love appeared on Wang Ning's face.

But then her mood became a bit more dejected.

Everyone in the world was kidnapped here.

Animals didn't have such "treatment."

Small animals that lost their owners' care mostly couldn't avoid a bleak ending.

Seeing this, a flash of brilliance appeared in Su Yang's eyes, "If you could raise a cat in the prison, would you choose to raise one?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Ning's eyes lit up, but then she asked suspiciously: "Where would the cat come from?"

"Didn't the new round of rules say that if you perform well, you can get anything you want, including but not limited to daily necessities."

"I think... pets might also be in the category of what can be obtained."

"Really?" Wang Ning showed interest.

"So you have to perform well; it's best if you can get the hidden achievement," Su Yang nodded.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ning immediately showed a look of vigilance, "Why are you telling me this?"

She originally thought Su Yang would extend the topic to the aquarium they were going to later.

But she didn't expect him to mention "hidden achievement."

As the game progressed to this point, all players tacitly hadn't talked about these four words.

It was like some kind of taboo.

Yet Su Yang was contrary to the norm and even encouraged her to get it.

If Wang Ning got the SS-level rating and unlocked the hidden achievement, would others still have a chance?

Wasn't he pushing himself into a fire pit?

"I thought for a long time last night about what the hidden achievement of this game would be." Su Yang finished the last bite of rice and wiped his mouth with a paper.

Then he poured a glass of water into his cup.

Although Wang Ning's eyes were full of suspicion, she couldn't help but want to hear the rest.

After all, hidden achievements were too important to every player.

This was directly related to ranking and was also related to talent evolution.

"Do you think what Jiang Hua is doing now is for the hidden achievement?" Wang Ning thought of a possibility following Su Yang's train of thought.

"It's very simple for him to clear the game with his ability; since he can figure out Huangfu Shu's background, he has likely locked in his partner range," Su Yang said.

"The key lies in 'killing'?" Wang Ning's eyelids twitched.

"If killing could unlock the hidden achievement, the first day of the game would have already ended," Su Yang said slowly.

Wang Ning was about to speak but suddenly thought of the strange performance of the other girls last night.

Her Wind-Listening Ear couldn't receive information indiscriminately.

It could only cover a certain range in a targeted manner.

In order to steal information, she deliberately chose the boys' dormitory on the other side of the fog.

After listening to Su Yang's analysis, Wang Ning felt more and more that those three girls seemed to be hiding something from her.

"Then what do you think it is?"

"What is the game theme?" Su Yang countered.

"Dating...?"

"Looking at all the death games we've played, the achievements obtained in the final settlement are mostly related to what happened during the process."

"So the result is important, and the process is also important; I think Jiang Hua doing this must be to make his date go more smoothly," Su Yang stated his guess.

Wang Ning's face became more solemn, "Didn't you say he killed to eliminate threats?"

"The two don't conflict," Su Yang said lightly, "Conspiracy must have provided corresponding benefits."

Having said this, Wang Ning suddenly grasped the key point, her breathing quickening, "You mean..."

"Three people traveling together?"

"Smart," Su Yang cast an appreciative look.

"Jiang Hua promised benefits, driving Tang Youning to conspire to kill?" Wang Ning's eyes widened.

"Other than that, I can't think of any other possibility," Su Yang shrugged.

Wang Ning had to admit that all of Su Yang's analyses hit the key points.

Every sentence was like an invisible big hand, smoothing out the wrinkles of her brain again and again.

She once wondered what was in the other party's brain.

It wasn't that Wang Ning hadn't thought about Jiang Hua's purpose for doing this.

But she had never thought it would be linked to hidden achievements.

"Jiang Hua gave Tang Youning hope, letting him conspire with himself, but 'three people traveling together' is a probability event, so he would agree?" Wang Ning understood completely.

"Exactly right," Su Yang gave a thumbs up.

Facing the praise, Wang Ning blushed a little embarrassedly.

She was just following Su Yang's train of thought to push forward.

If she were to analyze it alone, she definitely wouldn't think in this direction.

At this moment, Wang Ning suddenly widened her eyes, shocked: "If Jiang Hua's direction is correct, then what about us girls?"

Boys had the opportunity for "three people traveling together," but girls didn't.

In this way, wouldn't they be treated as objects to be utilized?

Su Yang smiled and said: "You can also kill two people when you go back; as long as the number of people on both sides is unequal, this situation will occur."

His goal had been achieved.

Because he didn't know much about the situation on the girls' side.

He could only use this method to give them a hint—

Killing is not advisable.

Su Yang didn't know what predicament he would encounter next.

But at least he had to clear away all possible threats.

Cooperating with Jiang Hua is like asking a tiger for its skin.

You won't get any benefits.

Don't think that killing a Huangfu Shu means one less threat.

A bigger threat is placed right in the open.

The more Wang Ning thought about it, the more terrifying she felt; she couldn't wait to return to the villa to inform them of the situation.

If this continues, the girls' situation will become increasingly passive.

"I'm very sorry; I even suspected you were lying to me just now," Wang Ning cast an apologetic look.

Hm?

Su Yang was slightly stunned; could she be referring to...

His own sexual orientation?

"What a cute woman," Su Yang sneered in his heart.

Of course he had to lie.

Otherwise, how could he carry out the "deception" to the end?

His goal had always been simple.

To remove himself from the focus position.

That's all.

Looking at her beautiful face blooming with brilliance, Su Yang smiled:

"It's okay, don't doubt me next time." ===== CHAPTER 165 =====
