Chapter 664: I

"No, it shouldn't be as I thought!" Li Zhenhua shook his head inwardly, even finding the thought amusing.

If that were truly the case, how absurd this Innate Talent would be?

As long as it's a Lie, the lie will become reality as one says.

If that were truly so, Su Yang would have long been beyond Heaven.

Why need to circle such a large loop to reach this point?

Couldn't one just fabricate a Lie before the game officially began?

Thinking that, Li Zhenhua felt a slight relief, and the clouds of doubt in his mind cleared considerably.

This may be a common flaw of those possessing the Lie Detection Innate Talent.

He always contemplates the worst side, and cannot help wondering whether a larger conspiracy lies behind others' Lie.

This thus leads Li Zhenhua Vision Perception any person with a skeptical attitude.

All day he is wrapped in various puzzling questions, in pain to the point of not wanting to live.

He has tried to curb his divergent thinking, but after many attempts, still fails.

Yet precisely because of this, he could step by step reach the present.

"What are you thinking?"

At that moment, Li Zhenhua's Shoulder was patted.

Turning his head, he saw Su Yang's Laughing visage.

In close‑up eye contact, those bright red eyes were especially deep, as if concealing a hidden pool, unfathomable.

"Nothing, just simply surprised by the game's Transform," Li Zhenhua subtly moved Su Yang's hand away.

"Gu Jun's death was more than deserved, you needn't think too much, though we wasted a lot of time because of this kid."

"But from another angle, precisely because we wasted this time, we could early excavate this 'worm', right?" Su Yang said.

"That's correct, but I've always been curious, did you truly discover the loophole simply from the moment Gu Jun slipped his tongue?" Li Zhenhua probed.

"Of course." Su Yang nodded without comment, "Any conspiracy leaves traces, sometimes an inadvertent small action can expose a flaw, thereby glimpsing the deepest thoughts."

"Since that's the case, why don't you just tell the truth?" Li Zhenhua whispered.

"I am a habitual Lie offender, and lies are divided into malicious and benevolent; the former naturally is not accepted, but the latter's nature is entirely different." Su Yang said slowly.

Li Zhenhua was stunned; it was his first time hearing someone describe the act of Lie in such a pure and elegant way.

And from his meaning, it seemed to be explaining the reason for Lie.

"So you also don't know whether after Gu Jun's death the game can return to its original state?" Li Zhenhua asked.

"Exactly, but if he does not die, the one who will die is you." Su Yang stared into his eyes, nodding seriously.

Lie Detection displayed.

At this moment Su Yang was not Lie.

Li Zhenhua's gaze was filled with complex colors.

He now completely Vision Perception Su Yang as a person.

On the surface Unruly and Untamed, Mouth extremely slick.

But in reality he does things that benefit both others and himself.

Very contradictory.

Different from all the players he previously interacted with.

Even…

One can sense a hint of a different personal charisma from him.

Li Zhenhua stroked his Forehead, sighing silently.

Su Yang, seeing this, gave a slight Laugh, "Don't think too much, I do this entirely for myself; if you die, how could you restrain Zhai Sixin?"

Li Zhenhua's mind suddenly lit up, "What if I am the murderer then?"

"That's not nonsense, of course we would vote you out," Su Yang said, unable to laugh or cry.

"What are you two murmuring about? Come quickly," Tang Youning frowned.

"What are you urging, I'm coming," Su Yang replied.

Li Zhenhua stared at Su Yang's back, a familiar oddity flickering in his eyes.

This was no longer the first time he detected Su Yang's Lie.

The previous Lie was when he asked about the other's parents.

He said both parents were dead.

But Innate Talent told him, this was not fact!

"Habitual offender…" Li Zhenhua temporarily hid his doubts in his belly.

He still needs to continue observing for a while.

Su Yang approached the Bookshelf, glanced at the thick book in Tang Youning's hand, its cover engraved with large characters — World Noble Observation Record.

"What's wrong?" he asked curiously.

"Do you still remember Zhai Xiaojie's 'Interpretation' of another Security Guard Gai Lun Bo Ge's self‑narration?" Tang Youning asked.

"Is it related to the content of this book?"

"The book states that the surname Richard, ten years ago, was Nobility of this country, and also a Hereditary Marquis!"

"But due to an accident that angered the current King, their glory was revoked, their family totem reclaimed, and all family members demoted to commoners!" Tang Youning explained.

Richard?

In Su Yang's mind suddenly surfaced a name — Sikeite Richard!

"Do you mean… Gai Lun Bo Ge said he bore a family mission? And this refers to him actually having been Nobility before?" Su Yang was slightly stunned.

"That's right, I've checked; this country's hierarchy is strict, it follows the Bloodline Theory, and non‑nobility members may not bear a noble surname, so the notion of duplicate surnames doesn't exist." Tang Youning nodded.

"So Sikeite came here as a Security Guard to restore his status?" Yu Mengliu's brow tightened.

"That's unreasonable; the Count isn't stupid, would he not know Sikeite's background and origin? Anyone working under the nobility has to undergo a background check, right?" Liang Kaiqi instantly became doubtful.

"Another point: what did the Skeite Family do to be revoked, and moreover, can he achieve restoration by serving as a Security Guard for the Count's household?" Huang Zhenzhong also raised the question.

"Based on the current material, Sikeite is most likely here for revenge; as the saying goes, love the house and its crows, which also gives rise to the opposite—hate the house and its house." Tang Youning glanced at Li Zhenhua inadvertently.

"If you have something to say, just speak directly; no need to point at a mulberry and scold a locust tree." Li Zhenhua furrowed his brow.

"Obviously, Sikeite fell in love with Diana, but because she fell in love with the Count, love turned into hatred; I think this explanation is more reasonable." Tang Youning said.

"According to this logic, it seems to better explain Sikeite's motive for murder." Zhai Sixin said, his face grim.

So her initial intuition wasn't wrong after all.

Sikeite—who is Li Zhenhua—is highly likely to be the murderer.

"Don't rush; there's another passage here," Yu Meng said.

"Read it aloud, let us hear it."

"The book says—Johnston is also a surname exclusive to the nobility, but his rank isn't high; he's only a Baron," Yu Meng recited verbatim.

"Oh?" Tang Youning snatched the book, examined it closely, and a vague curve formed at the corner of his mouth.

"Interesting, so the Chuzi is also a noble..."

Su Yang, hearing someone mention him, asked, "Are you saying a noble goes to another noble's house to work as a Chuzi?"

"What appears to be a self‑downgrading act might secretly have a deeper purpose!" Tang Youning gave Su Yang a deep look.
