Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 389 Identity exposed?

In Chengcheng, the boy with a black cat on his shoulder opened the door of his apartment.

The room was pitch black, with the only source of light coming from the floor-to-ceiling window opposite the door, which reflected the city's night view.

"I'll be back."

Twenty said to the empty, dark room.

He has always lived alone.

Today, the reason why Twenty greeted the empty room was not because he loved life, nor was it because he had become accustomed to it.

But...

"Come out, my friend, and stop hiding."

There really is someone in the room.

As Ershi finished speaking, the light in the room turned on with a "click".

A girl with hair dyed in gradient shades of blue, purple, and white came out of the kitchen with a popsicle stick in her mouth.

"Damn it, North, how did you know I was here?"

Twenty shrugged. "The left side of the carpet at my door is a little lower than when I left, so someone must have stepped on it."

"You really are worthy of being called a 'detective,'" the girl sighed, sitting on the sofa. "Your memory and observation skills are amazing."

"Just kidding, the cat told me that," Ershi pointed at the yawning cat on his shoulder, "By the way... your new hair color looks great, Sister Yu."

When Ah Yu heard the other party's praise, she shook her head proudly, and the hairpins on her head collided with each other, making a rustling sound.

"Hey, it took me four hours to dye it, and it cost me over three thousand yuan," Ah Yu said, leaning back slightly, "It's really good."

"So, you're not here to show off your new hair color to me, are you?" Ershi walked into the kitchen, took out two cans of soda from the refrigerator, and tossed the Coca-Cola to Ah Yu, who was lying on the sofa. "Is there something worth coming here for?"

"Come and monitor the progress of the matter that the boss asked us to do."

A Yu opened the Coke and took a sip, then said while crossing his legs.

Twenty raised an eyebrow. "Oh, it seems he takes it very seriously... Actually, the unexpected gain from this trip to Haicheng is that I've already investigated it thoroughly."

"About who he was and what made him special... But then again, I thought he would come in person."

A Yu sighed.

"He wanted to come, but he couldn't."

"That's normal, after all, he manages such a large organization." Erye opened the can of imported soda in his hand and took a sip, then looked at Ah Yu's expression, "Oh...it seems that it's not entirely because of being busy, is it?"

Ah Yu sighed, "You're really too smart. He can't come not because he's busy, but because he got beaten up and he still hasn't recovered."

"He can be beaten too? Who is he, a player or an NPC?"

Twenty said unexpectedly.

"Grandmaster."

A Yu gave the other person's name concisely.

Twenty stroked his chin and said, "That shouldn't be the case. The second-best in the country can't beat the third-best in the country?"

"Who knows? It depends on the overall strength of the rankings," Ah Yu sighed. "Anyway, this has proven that if we fight one-on-one, we really can't win."

"Perhaps the Grandmaster is even more seriously injured."

Twenty said with a smile.

Ah Yu shook his head: "I think it's pretty bad... and this matter is also related to the boy you are investigating."

"He met that 'May May' in the last dungeon. The 'Grandmaster' is very likely here just for that kid."

He drank all the soda in the cans, crushed them and threw them into the trash can.

"Wow, what a great honor! A newcomer at the 'First Level' is not only being targeted by your boss, but even a 'Grandmaster' is willing to protect him?"

Ah Yu looked at Er's reaction and realized something: "You don't seem very shocked. Does his true identity explain everything?"

"In reality, I'm just an ordinary 'acting major', but I do have something special."

Twenty took out a file bag from his pocket.

"First of all, he should be rated as having S-level potential by the Psychological Society."

"Secondly, his 'level-up' should have only taken six copies."

Ershi threw the file bag over and A Yu reached out to catch it.

"A student majoring in acting? How can he be a 'doctor'?"

Twenty laughed.

"Ha, that's the problem... He should be like you, his real job is 'only job'."

"Because in the previous evaluation by the Psychological Society, he demonstrated the professional abilities of a Soldier—in other words, this guy is not only a 'sole profession,' but, like you, a 'sole profession' that can utilize the abilities of other professions!"

Ah Yu was surprised: "Wow, no wonder... 'Only job' plus S-rank potential, it's definitely worth taking seriously."

"not only that."

Twenty said lightly.

"More than that?"

A Yu was a little surprised.

"He probably has more than just 'Order'," Ershi stroked his chin. "It's worth noting his interpersonal relationships. Currently, in Jiangcheng, many experts have gathered around him."

"So, I suspect he might have joined some deep, secretive player organization... and he's just the one who came out to show off."

Ah Yu touched his chin and said, "A secret organization... is there really such a thing?"

"All signs indicate that, even though the oldest player can only trace their history back three years, I don't think three years is the beginning of this game," Twenty said thoughtfully. "Interacting with those NPCs and gods always gives me a vague feeling... that they're not new to the existence of players."

"And according to those lunatics at the Psychological Society, this 'Death Game' will have 'major events'... just like a real game."

Ah Yu frowned: "Do you think he has the guidance of players from the previous version?"

"Otherwise, for a newcomer, his information acquisition ability is a bit too terrifying. If you observe his movements and social circles, you'll find that this guy seems to know the operating patterns of many organizations at the same time," Ershi said, rubbing his chin. "This is impossible for a new player..."

"Of course, he doesn't have to be a player from the previous version. He could also be a god-level NPC, a 'spokesperson' chosen by several players on the leaderboard, or a movement to create a god for 'Order'—in short, he's very interesting."

"This may be why the Grandmaster values ​​him."

Ah Yu exhaled.

"I understand. I will report what you have found out to the boss."

Then she reached out and took out a box.

"Anyway—here's your reward."

"If I have any related commissions in the future, I will contact you again... It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, Teacher Twenty."

Twenty nodded.

"If it's related to this guy, I'll definitely take it."

"Honestly, even though I've investigated this far, I still feel... he still has secrets that I haven't discovered yet!"
