Chapter 26: then translation of chapter title

Mina opened her mouth.

She really wanted to explain, to make it clear that she had no intention of hurting Mo Li.

But, the words came to her lips, yet she didn't know how to say them.

Does she really not know the danger of handing over the controlled Mo Li to Lifusi?

She herself originally lost the ability to resist, and was then assaulted by Lifusi!

Lin Ke raised his right hand, refusing to listen to Mina's nonsense, and bluffed: "You and Enrike want to do what, we've already guessed; now I give you two choices: one, cooperate with us, and everyone will be happy; two, don't cooperate, and we will tell Lifusi what you have done."

Mina heard this and immediately panicked.

She doesn't fear Lifusi finding out what she did and coming for revenge; she fears that after great difficulty she has found a way to revenge Lifusi, yet cannot succeed.

Revenge has become Mina's obsession.

"How do you want me to cooperate with you?"

Mina, harboring a bit of hope, tentatively asked.

"Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you."

Lin Ke smiled, his tone calm, and said: "According to what we know, Enrike is no good either. What you need to do is tell Enrike that Lifusi knows of his betrayal."

"Just that?"

Mina somewhat didn't believe it.

"Just that."

Lin Ke lightly nodded.

He took out his Portable Smart Brain, in front of Mina, and added Lifusi Fulansi as a friend.

While operating, Lin Ke turned and walked out, gesturing for Mo Li, Mina, and himself to leave the leisure cottage first.

……

Lifusi's mood improved.

Recently, everything has gone poorly, bad luck piling up.

Today, fortune has turned, and he also feels like the previous few months when everything went smoothly and whatever he thought of came true.

First, the annoying Linke Grand got beaten up, beaten until he begged for mercy, and voluntarily promised that whenever he saw him in the future he would detour.

He was happy.

Before his happiness had fully faded, Enrike brought more good news.

Mo Li Kidman was actually controlled by Enrike's people!

Moreover, the place where she was controlled is still a leisure cottage beside the lakeside lawn.

This made Lifusi completely excited!

Mentioning the lakeside lawn leisure cottage, Lifusi couldn't help but recall last year, when he had just begun practicing the "Anger Flame Meditation Method" for the first month, he had assaulted Mina Ha Fuqieke there.

"Enrike really understands me!"

Lifusi sighed with feeling, and hurriedly rushed to the leisure cottage.

He devoted himself wholeheartedly to rushing along, not even noticing the undisguised mockery in Enrike's eyes.

Even when Enrike disappeared midway, Lifusi didn't know.

He now only wants to reach that leisure cottage to receive the gift Enrike prepared for him.

However……

Just as he arrived at the lakeside, before stepping onto the lawn, not even seeing the shadow of the leisure cottage, his Portable Smart Brain vibrated once.

Lifusi had no mind to deal with it, directly ignoring the Portable Smart Brain.

But the Portable Smart Brain kept vibrating persistently, as if saying, if you don't pay attention, I'll keep shaking.

Lifusi's face grew dark, his mood becoming irritable.

Who the hell is so blind, disturbing me at this critical moment?

He roughly pulled out his Portable Smart Brain, looked, and discovered that Linke Grand had been continuously sending him a friend request.

"This?"

Lifusi was puzzled, not quite understanding what Linke Grand was up to.

His lust blazing, eyes bloodshot, Lifusi was about to follow his instinct, pocket the Portable Smart Brain and ignore Linke, when his remaining reason stopped him.

When things are abnormal, there must be something fishy.

Linke Grand contacting him at this critical juncture must have a reason; let's see what he has to say.

Lifusi accepted Linke's friend request, preparing to see what mischief Linke was up to.

"Have you reached the lakeside lawn, Lifusi Fulansi?"

Who would have thought that the first sentence Linke sent would leave Lifusi shocked and doubtful.

How does he know I would come here at this time?

"Mo Li Kidman has already left; your coming is useless."

The second sentence made Lifusi furious.

Mockery, this is blatant mockery.

"I already knew last night that you wanted to find someone to teach me a lesson; the result was that I swindled you out of ten Magic Stones."

The third sentence made Lifusi explode with rage.

This is no longer mockery; it's humiliation!

He now only wants to spew a flame to burn Linke Grand to ashes, scattering his remains.

"Think about how the information was leaked; friendly reminder: a lamp can light all directions, but underneath it is often dark."

The fourth sentence somewhat allowed Lifusi's reason to regain the upper hand, the effect of his intellect returning to its peak.

Yeah, this news is known only to him, Enrike, and the five Newbloods who took on the mission; it's already obvious who leaked the news.

We bear no grudge, we only want to study peacefully; your enemy is not us.

The fifth sentence let Lifusi completely calm down, enabling him to resist the burning desire and think rationally.

He began to reflect on his recent experiences, realizing he had become overly reliant on Enrike.

Everything was done by Enrike; whatever he said sounded reasonable, and he would listen to it.

Those girls who fit his XP but kept letting him come away empty-handed were all found by Enrike, and the remarks about Linke Grand ignoring him and the girls' heightened vigilance afterward were also spoken by Enrike.

Everything, the crux of it all, lies with Enrike!

I never thought, I never thought—you, this thick‑eyed, big‑eyed guy, actually started playing dirty!

"So it's you who's been messing around!"

Lifusi gritted his teeth, anger surging to his head.

He decided to thoroughly deal with Enrike, to punish him.

Betrayal—unforgivable!

With that thought, Lifusi stopped his steps on the lakeside lawn and turned back.

He's going to find Enrike to settle the score!

……

Elsewhere.

After Lin Ke sent those five messages, he immediately deleted the 'friend'.

For someone like Lifusi, a copper‑refining P, strong X offender, Lin Ke felt disgusted just thinking about it—how could he let such a person become his 'friend'?

Although he lives by the principle of harmonizing with the world and valuing peace, it doesn't mean Lin Ke lacks basic moral judgment—he cannot tolerate a scumbag like Lifusi.

He doesn't personally deal with Lifusi; he just doesn't want to dirty his own hands.

"Now it's your turn."

Lin Ke said to Mina.

Since things have come to this, I have no choice but to go ahead.

Mina gritted her teeth, made a decision, and also sent a message to Enrike via her Portable Smart Brain: "The situation has collapsed; Lifusi knows you betrayed him."

"???"

Enrike was so shocked he couldn't speak, expressing his feelings with symbols.

What the hell is going on?

The plan was going well—how did it suddenly turn into this mess?

Isn't Lifusi now trying to burn me to ashes, scattering even my bone dust?

I damn well can't beat him!

I pondered this plot for a long time, yet I wrote it as is, unchanged. I mainly wanted to convey a sense of disjunction—between people, and between people and society. Many assumptions of common sense are actually neither ordinary nor consensus. The world is absurd. It's not a matter of lowered intelligence; there truly is that much lack of wit.
