439. The Gang War Exposed My Identity as the Godfather's Eldest Son

Archide is a chef who used to work in a Michelin-starred restaurant and now owns his own small restaurant, which is doing fairly well.

He considered himself honest and law-abiding, and never did anything illegal or criminal.

Despite having some Italian ancestry, Archide never paid any attention to the Mafia or anything like that.

I joined this game purely for fun and entertainment.

Archide enjoys watching movies, and he particularly liked Lu Ban's "The Demon Tide," watching it twice in the cinema. As for "Spring No War," Archide was too busy with his restaurant work to go to the cinema, but after watching the movie, his staff became much more proactive at work, so Archide felt that this movie must also be a heartwarming film.

It's a wonderful thing to be selected for the first game featuring the [Glass Flower].

Being able to temporarily put aside work and travel to Jiangcheng is a wonderful thing.

When two happy things come together, it should bring even happier and more joyful times.

But why is that?

Archide sat in a chair next to a shrewd and capable gangster, who, according to the established rules, was his younger brother, in charge of most of the family's affairs, and was the Godfather's top leader.

On the other side is a woman, who, according to the setting, is her younger sister. She is cunning and treacherous and is also in charge of family affairs.

Archide himself is portrayed as the eldest son of a gangster.

"I'm just a cook, how did I become the eldest son of a gangster? Isn't there something wrong with this?"

He felt that, based on the script he had read, his position was more dangerous than that of the deceased!

He could be killed at any moment!

Good heavens, I came here to take a vacation and relax, not to sit on the Iron Throne and get stabbed in the back!

Archide slept well last night, but was woken up early this morning, around 8 a. m.

During the family meeting, Archide was sweating profusely and couldn't hear a word they were saying. All he could think about was someone bursting in and shooting him twice, knocking him down instantly.

"What do you think, brother?"

When the NPC playing the younger brother asked him a question, Archide immediately tensed up.

"I think, uh, that's right, that's how it should be done."

Archide gave a vague reply.

"I also think it should be like this."

The discussion actually continued.

Archide suddenly understood how those leaders felt during meetings.

Anyway, as long as it's "yes, yes, yes," that's all that matters.

However, after being reminded of this, Archide listened to the contents of the meeting.

It appears a family member has died, and they believe it was an assassination targeting the family. They are trying to find the killer and are speculating about who the culprit is.

Could this be the case mentioned in the game?

Archide listened for a while, then jotted down some key words, intending to ask about them later.

He's a gang leader, and the game is already on the easiest difficulty level. With so many NPCs helping him, there's no way he can't find the truth, right?

After the meeting ended, Archide saw a familiar face.

This is also a player named Biso, who is a painter.

He seems to be playing the family's strategist, named Stone.

"Don't be nervous. You are their boss. The Mafia values relationships and generally won't harm their blood relatives."

"That's what Biso said."

What should we do now?

"Archide asked."

Since they are players, they are definitely teammates and should help each other.

"This might be a confrontational story; we need to find the killer before everyone else. Do you want to see the body?"

"I asked Biso asked.

Is it scary?

"Archide asked instinctively."

"It's alright. One of our teammates saw it too, and he should be awake by now."

Biso replied.

By the time the two men reached the cold storage where the bodies were kept, it was already fully light.

Some viewers were at work, some were catching up on sleep, and some hadn't gotten up yet, so the number of viewers in the live stream decreased significantly. However, due to the time difference, many people abroad started watching the live stream again.

In the live stream, the number of likes, positive reviews, and recommendations is gradually increasing.

Most live streaming platforms only allow one click for likes and recommendations. Nevertheless, on Old Days Video Network alone, this live stream has received 300,000 recommendations and nearly 3 million likes across the entire platform.

However, the growth in positive reviews is slowing down. Most of the likes were given at midnight, at the very beginning of the live stream, and as more people joined in, the growth rate decreased significantly.

In the main control room, Lu Ban looked at the perspectives of various players. Although there was a professional team, Lu Ban still had to keep an eye on things.

After all, some unexpected things have already happened, and no one knows how these things will lead the script.

"At least, judging from the current situation, these strange things have very little interference with reality. Even our NPCs can drive them away, and the players and viewers in the live stream thought it was just for the show and didn't pay attention."

Lu Ban realized that his previous guess seemed to be correct.

Those players who witnessed the strange things firsthand, as well as viewers who watched them through live streams, experienced only a limited decrease in rationality; most of them were just as startled as when watching a movie.

Upon seeing these things again, they develop resistance and their rationality is not diminished.

In particular, most of the viewers watching Lu Ban's live streams are people who have seen at least one or two of his movies. After being influenced by Lu Ban, they are no longer afraid of watching these things.

This world has undoubtedly been partially corrupted by Lu Ban.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the world order has not become chaotic because of Lu Ban's existence. At least everyone is still living a normal life, and even the mental illness of many patients has improved.

This global live broadcast may well be a glorious evolution for the entire world.

While keeping an eye on the strange objects, Lu Ban continued to check the progress of the script.

Meanwhile, the Psycho Bro, along with the delivery guy and the French Police Flower, resolved the issue of stealing the corpse. They were almost beaten to death by the family, but after escaping, they returned to the funeral home to examine the body.

The NPC led them to open the morgue door, where they saw Dr. House's body.

Next to the body stood a small child.

The child smiled, and then vanished without a trace.

Did you see that?

The Psycho Bro hurriedly asked.

"What did you see?"

The delivery driver was still stunned by the sight of the Glass Flower and didn't notice anything else.

"You don't need to perform when there are only three of us."

"I can't help it French Police Flower said helplessly.

"Performed? I didn't perform."

"Psycho Bro defended himself," the man explained.

"Aren't you mentally ill?"

"I'm not sick, I'm really not sick."

The Psycho Bro explained.

"Mental illnesses usually claim they are not sick."

"That's what the delivery guy said."

"So I'm actually sick?"

"I can't believe it Psycho Bro said, puzzled.

"Yes, you are indeed sick."

The French Police Flower agreed.

Am I sick or not?

The Psycho Bro is a bit out of control.

People who claim they are not sick, even those with mental illnesses, all claim they are not sick.

To say you're sick is tantamount to admitting you're mentally ill, isn't it?

Am I sick or not?

He was momentarily confused.

Just then, a message popped up on the AR glasses of the French Police Flower who was observing the body.

You've discovered some clues; there's a peculiar scent on the corpse, and you've memorized it.

At the same time, the French Police Flower also smelled a peculiar fragrance.
