Dungeon Trap
With He Pu no longer directing them, the instruments that had been playing on their own fell silent. But aside from You Qiwen, who had recovered first, everyone else's hands and feet were still numb. No one had expected the final showdown to come so quickly, or another non-task player to appear. While everyone turned against He Pu, they also began to suspect and guard against one another.
Looking at the players whose legs were trembling, Fly sneered. "This whole act is pointless. How did you figure me out?"
He was asking You Qiwen. Xu Huo had never trusted any of the players from the start, so that was no surprise. But You Qiwen had even signed his Cooperation Contract at first. Fly wanted to know when he had let his guard down.
"I thought something was off about you when I signed the Contract," You Qiwen said. "The Contract itself doesn't impose much of a constraint. Judging by the results, if someone found the Vanishing Guest but didn't want to tell the other players, this Contract would only make us turn on each other sooner."
"But that's not evidence. Everyone will do whatever it takes to complete the mission. Later, when Mr. Xu mentioned there was a non-task player, I didn't suspect you either. What really made you suspicious was Li Chao," You Qiwen continued. "You said Li Chao had acted on his own, but he'd agreed on his plan with you."
"You agreed to work with him, but never left your room."
"That happened in my room. How could you know?" Fly paused, then suddenly looked at Wei Landeng, who stood behind Liu Zheng Ping.
Wei Landeng, who had been beaten nearly to death, spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva and struggled to her feet.
