Is it Human or Ghost, Everyone is Acting! You're on the Second Floor, I'm on the Third!

Xiao Zhe.

To Wang Zhong, the owner of this name held two different meanings at this moment.

One was the past, and the other was the unknown.

In the past, Xiao Zhe was Wang Zhong's good friend at work, and they had been good colleagues for half a year.

The unknown stemmed from Wang Zhong knowing that Xiao Zhe had betrayed him and used him as a pawn.

After all.

Before, when elemental flames exploded on the museum's metal walls, if Wang Zhong had reacted even a little slower, he would have surely died.

Secondly, if Wang Zhong hadn't obtained this cheat system, he would have already been framed by Qi Xun as a scapegoat at the hospital; or, he would have been silenced by Mien, who came for revenge, upon leaving the hospital.

A life debt.

Now, not only were Wang Zhong and Xiao Zhe not friends, but there was also this kind of hatred between them.

"Fine, let me see what this scoundrel wants with me."

A moment later, Wang Zhong indifferently picked up the [Mechanical Phone A10], then opened the text message. Soon, he saw a message sent by Xiao Zhe.

[Xiao Zhe: Wang Zhong, I need to take three days off. Can you please cover for me recently?]

"Damn it! He's trying to mess with me again!"

At his desk, Wang Zhong looked at the message from Xiao Zhe, his mouth twitched, and he said indignantly.

Three days ago, just by covering for Xiao Zhe for one day, he had encountered a life-or-death crisis and was targeted by two scumbags with ulterior motives.

Now.

Xiao Zhe was actually asking Wang Zhong to cover for him for three days!

Three days of covering his shift, could it be that three more life-or-death crises would come?

As he thought of this, a cold glint couldn't help but appear in Wang Zhong's eyes. Although his guess had no basis, who could blame him given Xiao Zhe's past actions?

"I'm not destined to take this shift."

Wang Zhong muttered to himself, then sent a text message to Xiao Zhe.

[Wang Zhong: Xiao Zhe, I'm sorry, I have some things to take care of recently and can't cover for you.]

After sending this message, Wang Zhong immediately commanded the [Intelligent System] to track Xiao Zhe's phone signal, and simultaneously monitor his every move and listen to all his conversations twenty-four hours a day.

Wang Zhong's intuition told him that Xiao Zhe's three-day leave must be for some unspeakable purpose...

No choice.

After experiencing certain events, Wang Zhong couldn't help but view this once-stranger with the utmost malice in his heart.

However, Wang Zhong was unaware that this subconscious action of his would lead him to discover some long-hidden secrets.

On the outskirts.

In a hotel, on the ninth floor.

In room 903.

Xiao Zhe, with his muscular physique, finished twenty one-handed push-ups. He picked up a towel from the sofa and wiped the sweat from his hot forehead. Then, he picked up the [Mechanical Phone Mate-X3] from the coffee table.

"Huh?"

"Wang Zhong actually refused to cover for me because he's busy?"

Looking at Wang Zhong's reply, Xiao Zhe reached out and scratched his damp short hair. A hint of curiosity appeared on his ordinary face.

"It seems Wang Zhong is scared."

"This kid, it was just an accident while covering a shift, why is he so afraid?"

He muttered to himself, shaking his head helplessly, and said speechlessly, "Oh well, since Wang Zhong is unwilling to help me, I'll just have to take leave. However, this means I'll have to figure out how to find the mysterious person more efficiently..."

Wang Zhong.

To Xiao Zhe, he was just a naive person he could exploit, nothing more.

After exercising for half an hour, Xiao Zhe, dripping with sweat, went to the bathroom to clean up.

In the bathroom.

"Drip, drip."

When Xiao Zhe opened the bathroom door, a man tied upside down to the ceiling of the bathroom let out a weak cry.

"Why? Why could you find me?"

"If, if you tell me the answer, then, then I'll tell you who the other accomplice is?"

A man's voice, weak and filled with despair, drifted into Xiao Zhe's ears.

Upon hearing this, a happy smile spread across Xiao Zhe's ordinary-looking face. He quickly walked up to the man who had been subjected to extreme torture, crouched down, and said with a smile:

"Interesting, interesting. In that case, I agree to make a deal with you…"

"But if you dare to lie to me, then the one who dies won't be you, but you and your family."

After a round of threats, Xiao Zhe answered the man's question: "It's simple. The black market shop where you went to fence the stolen goods was opened by one of our Sain Mechanical Killers. I don't know if it's your bad luck or ours…"

Unbelievable!

After receiving Xiao Zhe's answer, the man covered in wounds' eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

However, Xiao Zhe didn't give the man any time to think. He grabbed the man's blood-soaked head with his right hand and said coldly: "Tell me, who exactly is your other accomplice in stealing from the museum? What's his strength? A Level 2 Psionic Warrior? Or someone else?"

At the bureau.

"Sigh!"

When Wang Zhong heard the eavesdropping sound synchronized by the [Intelligent System], his eyes suddenly became vacant. At one moment, a heavy sigh escaped his lips.

Wang Zhong never imagined that his cautious thought of eavesdropping on Xiao Zhe would lead him to such explosive news.

Sain Mechanical Killers.

Sain Mechanical Company.

The accomplice who stole from the museum…

These two phrases alone were enough to make Wang Zhong's mind connect many dots.

A moment later, Wang Zhong lowered his head and looked at the [Basic Psionic Battle Suit] he was wearing. He said helplessly: "Damn it! So it's not just me who has a hidden identity, even Xiao Zhe has one!"

"Moreover, Xiao Zhe is actually a killer belonging to the Sain Mechanical Company! This identity is hidden so deeply!"

He paused, as if thinking of something, and said with a strange expression: "It's just, if this guy knew that I was the one who dealt with Mien, I wonder if he'd be shocked?"
