The Brother-in-Law Is Here Too!
Looking at the billowing dust on the center of the Stage, Cheng Shi frowned slightly.
The crisis is not over yet, President Gong will certainly not die, so the most important thing at this time is to be wary of potential dangers around us.
Cheng Shi cautiously took a half step back, silently finding a position where he was evenly spaced from the people around him, and began to observe vigilantly.
As the central Stage collapsed, the players in the front row also began to make their moves.
Mo Li seated calmly on the fishing platform, observing the billowing smoke and dust, and casually remarked:
"Dust is prohibited here."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the smoke and dust in the entire venue froze in mid-air, then instantly fell to the ground and never rose again.
Grand Marshal Hu Wei's face was even more gloomy. From the broken door, he seemed to have guessed who was present.
The Chen Shu at his feet was also extremely curious, and he craned his neck to look around, clearly looking for someone.
A short while later, his gaze unexpectedly met Cheng Shi of Cheng Shi, who was looking around.
"..."
Cheng Shi intended to discreetly avoid the gaze, but unexpectedly, this Chen Shu seemed to recognize him. The man raised an eyebrow, then struggled to peer over the Grand Marshal's feet and called out:
"Brother-in-law? Oh, my brother-in-law is here too!"
"???"
Brother-in-law?
I?
No, your sister wouldn't be...
"..."
Who the hell is your brother-in-law?
Cheng Shi's face darkened. His first reaction was not anger, but rather sympathy for his good older brother.
It must have been tough for him. He had to endure this bad luck for so long; I really don't know how he managed to get through it.
Chen Shu's shouts undoubtedly drew many eyes to Cheng Shi, and even Mo Li and Hu Wei turned around to look.
Seeing that he had nowhere to hide, Cheng Shi cursed inwardly, but on the surface he could only smile and greet his good older brother.
"Brother Hu, it really is you! Long time no see."
Hu Wei did not see how Cheng Shi broke through the door, and he could not let go of his suspicions at this moment, but this did not stop him from doing some superficial work.
So he laughed heartily and shouted:
"Hahaha, Cheng Shi!"
Finally, I've met you in person!
What a perfect person I am!
Actually, the person you met last time was me.
But he certainly couldn't say that, so Cheng Shi just smiled demurely.
But suddenly he wondered, if he gave his good older brother a "hee~" at this moment, would he immediately fly into a rage?
Tsk, that's funny, but I don't dare...
Cheng Shi thought casually for a moment, then glanced past Hu Wei and met Mo Li's gaze.
He wanted to observe this peak Law Giver more closely, but he was afraid that his gaze would attract the other party's attention, so he could only glance at him briefly.
This legendary Law Giver had eyes that seemed to see right through people. He scrutinized Cheng Shi moment with great interest, then greeted him with a smile:
"So you are the Fate Weaver. I've heard so much about you."
"..."
I've heard so much about you!
I always feel like you guys are being Yin-Yang, but I have no proof!
Cheng Shi didn't know how to respond, so he could only laugh awkwardly twice.
But at that moment, the Change again.
Suddenly, several spotlights shone again on the collapsed Stage where there was no longer any smoke or dust. Under the spotlights, the figure in the black tuxedo crawled out from under the rubble and broken wood in an unbelievable contorted posture, panting heavily.
His body was covered in blood, and his limbs looked twisted like pretzels, but even so, he still struggled to "squeeze" out from the gaps in the ruins.
However, because the gap was too small, his mask was squeezed off, and under the bright spotlight, the face of an Acrobat came into view.
It might be hard for ordinary people to imagine what the face of an Acrobat looks like. Even Cheng Shi never thought that a professional's face could be so tangible before seeing this face.
He stared speechlessly at the face, ninety percent certain that this so-called President Gong was probably a Deception, Acrobat!
Because he had four large tattooed characters on his forehead, which he "showed off" in a very conspicuous way:
Acrobat!
"..."
Cheng Shi was speechless; he felt he had been speechless more often tonight than in the previous months.
[Silence] Could they really be starting to notice me?
And... isn't he Zhen Xin?
Who is he?
Anyone with the audacity to go on stage and perform must be someone of considerable talent and influence. Cheng Shi looked at Hu Wei and Mo Li, trying to find clues in their expressions, but just then, Hu Wei sneered and said:
"Long Jing, it really is you."
Long Jing?
Cheng Shi was taken aback. No wonder he asked others to call him President Gong. "Dragon + Well" is not "Gong".
It seems this is also a Peak Player in the "Deception" game. I wonder where he ranks on the leaderboard?
Everyone present turned to the Stage, their attention drawn to President Gong, whose mask had fallen off.
Only Chen Shu kept observing Cheng Shi. Seeing that Cheng Shi's brows were somewhat serious, he rolled his eyes and called out again:
"Brother-in-law, don't panic. In my opinion, my dear sister is at most doing some business with Old Gong, but she has definitely not fallen in love with someone else!"
"..."
Okay, okay!
Listen to what you're saying! If it weren't for the current situation, your words would keep the village aunties entertained for three months straight!
Damn it, my fist is hard now.
Cheng Shi didn't want to talk to him, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked a question:
"Zhen Yi is your sister?"
Chen Shu someone was paying attention to him, Chen Shu immediately perked up. With a forceful push, he knocked the Grand Marshal's foot off his back, and in a flash, he appeared beside Cheng Shi. Under Cheng Shi's horrified gaze, he began to introduce himself with a "slightly proud" air:
"I'm a few years older than Zhen Xin, and Zhen Yi is Zhen Xin's younger sister. Considering our ages, it wouldn't be wrong for me to call you brother-in-law..."
???
No, buddy, so you have nothing to do with Zhen Xin after all!
Ah?
Does being older than someone else allow you to claim kinship like this?
Yes, I admit that you and Zhen Yi's thought processes are indeed abnormal, like a family, but can you leave me alone when you two are trying to arrange a family reunion?
I'm completely innocent!!
Cheng Shi was stunned. He stared stiffly at Chen Shu, who was standing right in front of him. He pursed his lips, wanting to curse, but didn't dare.
But once the conversation started, Chen Shu couldn't stop.
He circled Cheng Shi with great interest, scrutinizing him, and clicked his tongue in amazement as he remarked:
"Brother-in-law, are you a Fate Weaver?"
However, come to think of it, the Fate Weaver and the Master of Trickery seem... well, not quite a good match.
"..."
It doesn't match at all, thank you.
Also, how did you calculate this? Are you Believer "Destiny," or am I?
But Cheng Shi realized he couldn't continue the conversation, so he cautiously gripped a Scalpel and touched his ring, remaining on guard but ignoring the other person.
But Chen Shu still noticed his fleeting moment of speechlessness, and the other person started chattering on as if he had discovered a new toy:
You don't believe me?
This is my unique secret method; it can reveal one's career, marriage prospects, and future potential.
I once did a fortune telling for my younger sister, and it predicted a difficult future for her, but fortunately, she would find a good marriage. Now it seems my prediction has come true.
"..."
"However, this marriage is not perfect. The Fate Weaver likes to mend and patch things up, but the Master of Trickery specializes in destruction. Although your personalities complement each other, they also clash."
Let me think...
If you want a harmonious marriage, why not... hey! I've got it!
Why don't you, brother-in-law, make some sacrifices for your family, abandon the favor of Destiny, and take a few steps on my path of silence?
That way, even if my sister gets tired of playing outside, there will still be someone at home to keep watch for her. Wouldn't that ensure a harmonious and happy marriage?
"..."
Cheng Shi never imagined that "more talkative than you" from Big Cat's mouth meant such a witty way...
But this can't even be considered poor anymore; the words are so dense they could be woven into cloth!
He remained silent, because this kind of person was exactly like Zhen Yi; the more you cooperated, the more arrogant he became.
Unexpectedly, even without speaking, Chen Shu was able to chime in.
He was clearly a silent Believer, yet he was also the least silent person on the field.
Chen Shu Cheng Shi remained silent, Chen Shu's eyes lit up with a smile and he said:
"Brilliant! Brother-in-law, you really have a high level of understanding!"
"..."
Haha, I'll fucking beat you!
