"You're very confident!" Gu Fei said this on behalf of the Sword Demon. In fact, from the tone and attitude of the Sword Demon that he saw, it was not only confidence, but also conviction. This made Gu Fei feel that the relationship between the Sword Demon and this girl named Ke should not be just that of a friend's girlfriend. They already knew each other very well.
Sure enough, the Sword Demon nodded and said, "Of course, we've been old friends for many years!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go!" Gu Fei urged.
"Aren't you going offline?" The Sword Demon was puzzled.
"Don't mention this kind of disappointing thing at a critical time. You won't die if you're a little late." If it was a day ago, this was what Slender Waist Dance used to yell at Gu Fei. It could be seen that the principle was actually not dead. Its owner could change it at any time.
Immediately after the Sword Demon contacted the girl, he led Gu Fei to continue their journey. The direction was completely opposite from when they were looking for the water depth. The two walked in the direction of Forest Shade City.
"These two aren't together!" Gu Fei lamented.
"Of course, if they were together, we would have seen them just now." The Sword Demon simply replied. Gu Fei smelled the confidence that belonged to understanding from his words.
Forest Shade City, an inconspicuous village street. Looking at a certain house number, the Sword Demon checked the chat record, nodded, and said, "It's here."
They went forward and knocked on the door. The player who opened the door had a professional smile unique to the service industry. "What can I do for you two?"
"I'm looking for Lu Ke," the Sword Demon replied.
"Oh …" The man responded and invited the two of them into the house.
The room was well-lit, but it was messy. Rags of various colors were thrown all over the floor. In front of several tables, many players were waving needles and thread and working hard. After the Sword Demon entered the house, he walked straight in the direction where a girl was holding a shirt and arguing with someone, "This is too much! With two stitches in such a mess, won't it fall off when you pull it? "
"Of course not!" The player who was talking to the girl said with a smile.
"Pa!" The sleeves of the jacket in the girl's hand had already snapped, and were completely torn off.
"Take a look …" The girl stretched out her hands and stretched out her torn sleeves and blouse in front of him.
The other party was left speechless. It was not strange for his clothes to be torn, but for the thread to be torn off with just a light tug, that was somewhat inexcusable. The player quickly wiped his sweat. "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. Someone must have been careless and missed a step. I'll take it and redo it." After saying that, he took the sleeves and jacket and rushed to a table. He threw a loud scolding at the girl while scolding. Obviously, this scolding was also to appease the customer's dissatisfaction.
"Sister Ke, another ten sets are ready!" someone suddenly shouted.
"Alright, I'll call someone to get it after you're done." The girl turned her head in the direction of the shout. When she turned her head, her eyes had already swept over Gu Fei and the Sword Demon. After shouting, she immediately called out to the Sword Demon, "You're here."
"En!" The Sword Demon also responded.
It was a simple dialogue, but Gu Fei heard a very unusual meaning. He confirmed his previous inference that the Sword Demon and this Deep Water Wife did not have an indirect relationship. The two of them were very familiar with each other. The way they greeted each other was not very warm, and it did not seem like a polite greeting. Everything was so natural. Only the most familiar friends would use this simple and plain greeting method.
After greeting the Sword Demon, Lu Ke turned her gaze to Gu Fei. She pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Drunk Killer is also here."
"Hehe …" Gu Fei laughed dryly. He had naturally heard of his various nicknames in the outside world. Although he did not mind, few people called him that directly.
"You are …" The Sword Demon looked around the room.
"Making clothes." Lu Ke grabbed a piece of clothing from the table beside her and threw it to the Sword Demon.
The Sword Demon caught it and shook it open. Gu Fei looked at it and understood what it was. Camouflage uniforms … It was the kind that Deepwater and his subordinates were wearing. It seemed like he was preparing to equip the entire guild, which would require a few hundred sets. This wasn't a small amount of work. In a realistic game, making clothes wasn't as simple as shouting "Sew" into the air and the clothes would immediately appear in your pocket. It required actual manipulation. Of course, just like archers, this also required the powerful support of the system. Needlework was not something everyone could do.
"Have you seen Deep Water?" Lu Ke took back the clothes that the Sword Demon handed back to her and asked.
"I have." The Sword Demon said.
"Then of course you know what I am doing?" Lu Ke said.
"I know." The Sword Demon looked around the room again, "Is this your guild's, or …"
"No, it's a specialized tailor's workshop. It's Ying Qi's workshop. Didn't you notice the logo on the door?" Lu Ke said.
"That logo is Ying Qi's?" The Sword Demon was astonished. This was one of the more famous workshops in the online gaming world. Old players like the Sword Demon all knew about it.
Lu Ke spread out her hands and said to the player who had just argued, "See, I said that your logo doesn't look like it at all!"
The other player continued to wipe his sweat, "We'll find some time to fix it."
"Come sit here!" Lu Ke led the Sword Demon and Gu Fei to a rare empty table in the room. That person was quite tactful. When he saw Gu Fei and the others come over to sit, he immediately took the work in his hands and squeezed to the side.
"What's the matter?" Lu Ke asked the Sword Demon.
Without holding back, the Sword Demon told her everything, including Gu Fei and his suspicions of the system's assassination target.
Surprise, Gu Fei was surprised again. He finally discovered that the Sword Demon and Lu Ke weren't just familiar. His relationship with this girl even surpassed his relationship with Water Depth. At least in front of Water Depth, the Sword Demon was a bit embarrassed to ask for help, but in front of this girl, the Sword Demon didn't hold back. This was a deep trust.
Seeing that he didn't have a chance to interrupt, Gu Fei could only quietly listen on the side.
"So, you're suspecting that there's something wrong with the Water Breaking Arrow?" Lu Ke tapped the table with her fingertips.
"At least in the previous mission target that the system pointed out, it's a guy who has accumulated more than 1600 people." The Sword Demon said.
"It's just a game. This isn't too serious a problem, right?" Lu Ke said.
"Behavior comes from a person's character." The Sword Demon said.
"You're too serious." Lu Ke replied, "I've told you before that some people will indulge themselves in a virtual environment like games without any scruples. This doesn't really mean anything. "
"But at least in this world, he's not a good person." The Sword Demon said.
"Support, support!" Gu Fei said to the Sword Demon. The Sword Demon patted Gu Fei.
"Okay, okay! I got it. But the problem is that I'm not familiar with this person at all, and I don't know much about him. "Lu Ke said.
"Is that so …" The Sword Demon felt incomparably regretful.
"I have an idea." Gu Fei suddenly said. The two looked at him together.
"Why don't you take us with you and pretend to be people from your guild. That way, we'll have a lot of opportunities to observe that guy." Gu Fei said.
"Is this feasible?" The Sword Demon was a bit confused. Lu Ke didn't say anything.
Gu Fei smiled at the girl: "Haven't you done this kind of thing before?"
"What?" The Sword Demon was a bit confused.
"Back at Setting Sun City, many of Unhindered's members didn't even know that the real plan was to have Unsworn Sword lead Tod to Setting Sun City's dungeon. However, the depth of the water allowed them to intercept him there. Don't you think it's a little strange?" Gu Fei asked the Sword Ghoul.
"Water Depth knew that our goal was to send Todd to the dungeon. It's not strange for them to ambush us there, is it?" The Sword Demon said.
"No, if it was an ambush, there definitely wouldn't be so few people. Doesn't Water Depth know how big our team is? However, while everyone was busy fighting, Deepwater's attention wasn't diverted in the slightest. With only a few people, they dared to wait in the dungeon. There's only one explanation for this. Deepwater and the others are fully aware of our plan. "Gu Fei said.
"Your analysis … makes sense." The Sword Demon had to admit.
"How could the plan be leaked? Of course, someone had found out about it. Unless the Han Clan's Young Master has a bad sense of humor and deliberately revealed the plan to Shui Shui, so that he would happily run over and then be killed dejectedly. "Gu Fei said.
"It's not that, not that …" The Sword Demon said. At the same time, he gave Gu Fei a meaningful look. Gu Fei could actually think of such a vile act. His realm was no less than the Han Family Young Master's.
"So, someone must have stolen our plan." Gu Fei looked at Lu Ke.
"Then how do you know it was me?" Lu Ke asked.
"Miss, at that time, your people were all Lurkers. You were the only Thief. If you wanted to steal the plan, I think the only way was to sneak around Unsworn Sword, right? Other than you, no one else could do it. "Gu Fei said.
The Sword Demon was greatly surprised. "Young Ke, can you keep up with the speed of ordinary walking after sneaking?"
"That's not it." Gu Fei answered for her. "The only one who can do this is probably that Slender Waist Dance. Miss Lu Ke should have blended into our team very casually when we left Forest Shade City. Our team was made up of many mercenary groups and guilds from Reigning the Four Seas. The appearance of a new face would not attract attention at all. This was a big loophole for us. That's how Miss Lu Ke has always been in our team, but whenever Unsworn Sword comes up with a plan, she'll sneak around and eavesdrop, then inform Depth of Water of the news. I think my guess is correct, right? "
"All correct." Lu Ke nodded. "You're really smart. I think even the Han Family Young Master didn't guess it, right?"
Speaking of this, the Sword Demon suddenly felt a chill pass through his heart. "Maybe it's not that he doesn't know, he's just pretending not to know. Qianli, your inference just now is likely to be true. This guy deliberately let Water Depth think that we fell into a trap, and then happily chased after us, only to be ruthlessly cut back by you … "
"That guy!!" Lu Ke also suddenly remembered the ridicule that the Han Family Young Master gave to Water Depth when they met in Sunset City. That guy's appearance at that time seemed to be telling them: No matter how powerful Sun Wukong is, he can't escape from the palm of the Buddha.
