"Whoa~~~~"
The others recovered from their shock, blinking repeatedly as they drew out the sound.
"Huh?"
Lu Ming came to his senses from his hatred and realized he had let the cat out of the bag. "No, no, Senior Brother, don't ruin her reputation."
"Yao Yao and I are innocent..."
"Mm, I know." Gou Sheng nodded solemnly. "Innocent and upright—that's the way to live."
"Right, you're all innocent."
Everyone nodded.
Lu Ming should have been happy to hear that, but he kept feeling that everyone was implying something else. It was rather uncomfortable.
He put on a mournful face, wondering whether this would cause trouble for Yao Yao.
"Then I'll begin."
"Okay!"
Lu Ming nodded heavily.
The others then noticed that Divine Calculator had closed his golden eyes. Judging by his appearance, he had already begun his deduction.
Gou Sheng patted Lu Ming's shoulder and consoled him. "Don't worry. Your future is limitless, and you'll definitely surpass me, your senior brother."
"The future of Wine God Peak depends on you!"
Lu Ming forced a smile. "Senior Brother, you're joking..."
Dan the Fatty and the others watched eagerly as well, all somewhat nervous. They were afraid Divine Calculator would open his eyes and say he refused to accept payment.
Only Qi Zixiao remained relatively calm.
After all, Lu Ming was at least a protagonist template. He couldn't just die like that, could he? Wouldn't that make the protagonist template pointless? Wait. Come to think of it, Wine God Peak had two "Hidden Dragons and Phoenix Fledglings." As the saying went, two tigers could not share one mountain.
Could one of these two protagonist templates really die?
"..."
With that thought, Qi Zixiao was no longer very calm.
About half a stick of incense later.
Divine Calculator awakened from his meditative state.
