31.Shadow Castle (3)

"It's great to be able to fix this so quickly, but... It's a little offensive, but what's going on? ”

The woman named Pleti couldn't help but ask softly, "Although I have no intention of indulging in your private affairs, but..."

"Oh, it's not a big deal."

Zhou Ke'er squinted her eyes and looked at the other party, still looking very kind, but she was thinking quickly in her mind.

If you don't say anything, you can naturally fool the past, but this will make others doubt Zhou Keer's identity... Whether it is mistaken that Zhou Keer is an NPC or not deceived by Zhou Keer, once you have a suspicious attitude towards Zhou Keer, then Zhou Keer's next actions will be in trouble.

But if you just make up a reason... If the guy who was fooled by Zhou Keer just now also played in a team, there are also his companions here... Isn't that Zhou Ke'er equivalent to blowing himself up as a player?

No... Wait, it seems that there is room for manipulation... Judging from the performance of that person just now, as well as Zhou Keer's own understanding, it seems that the player only knows about his own background settings, but does not know the background of others...

Okay, then it looks like you can get through the tricks for the time being.

"It's just a little bit of business, and it's not worth mentioning."

Zhou Ke'er made up her mind, tapped the cane with the fingers of her right hand, and replied slowly with a smile: "Just now, the gentleman's factory was not well managed and closed down due to some reasons related to Zaixia, and he himself went bankrupt because of this, and his family, wife and daughter were lonely and had no fixed place to live.

So out of pity, he stepped forward and took over the gentleman's property on his behalf, taking care of the gentleman's wife and daughter. It was originally out of kindness, but I didn't expect it to be misunderstood by that gentleman, thinking that this was an insult to him and an act of a *** woman, so I made this decision and blamed me.

However, after an in-depth exchange with Zaixia, and a promise to return the gentleman's property and wife and daughter to him, he left contentedly. As for what will happen to that gentleman's estate after that... That's not what to do. ”

The corners of Pletty's eyes twitched, and she could barely hold the expression of a standard lady's smile, and she was silent for two seconds before she said, "I see, Your Excellency is really kind-hearted, worthy of being a gentleman." ”

"It's too much, it's just a gesture."

Zhou Ke'er waved his hand and said modestly.

Well, he had just reconfirmed that suspicion with that. Others really don't know the setting of Zhou Keer's identity, or rather, they don't know the identity of other people. Originally, Zhou Keer thought that he was the only one who didn't know the background of other people because of his pretending identity, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.

Hiding one's identity is such a thing as a police detective, of course, no one else can know about it, but... If you don't even understand the obvious identity of the middle class, then there is a lot of room for manipulation.

That's right, Zhou Keer's nonsense just now is to prove this. The series of events he just talked about could not have been done by a mere middle class, but no one else raised objections...

"Oh, okay, everyone, we've been here long enough, I haven't even eaten dinner yet, I can't wait to join this party!"

At this moment, the stout man named Steon broke the awkward atmosphere and proposed in a thick voice.

"Ah, yes, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Zhou Ke'er bowed slightly when she heard this.

Speaking of which, this butler is not in a hurry at all... And there was no reaction at all when this kind of thing just happened, which is really weird.

"Oh? So you're ready? ”

The butler came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, and took the lead towards the manor, "Then please come with me, Master Dais has been waiting for a long time, and the banquet is about to start." ”

"Knowing that the time is almost up, you are still wasting other people's time, you are really a so-called gentleman, Mr. Glacis, you are really the same as before, and you have not changed at all."

Everyone was walking towards the manor, but the sand between their fingers said coldly as if talking to themselves, although they were talking to Zhou Ke'er, they didn't look at him, and they didn't deliberately lower their voices, so everyone else could hear it.

Zhou Ke'er was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood the intention of coming over to the sand.

It seems that the finger sand has seen Zhou Keer's hint before, and has begun to help improve Zhou Keer's NPC identity.

After all, in a group of players, only one person is an NPC... And it doesn't seem to have anything to do with other people, which is really suspicious, especially in this kind of mod where the player's nickname is invisible, normal people will wonder if this guy is the player's pretend.

But... If the background of this NPC is very complicated, and it has crossed paths with many of the people... In this case, the probability of being suspicious will be much lower, and it is estimated that it will be considered a relevant NPC used to advance the story.

After all, isn't that what detectives or supernatural novels are all about? There will always be a tool person who has a relationship with everyone else to advance the plot.

"Ah, Miss Sandyne, you have changed a lot."

Zhou Ke'er still had a formulaic smile, and replied without turning her head: "It's become more bitter, I really doubt that you can find your other half?" ”

Shi Shi looked like he couldn't figure out what was going on, and his bewildered eyes seemed to say, "Ahhh Why did these two suddenly quarrel? What's going on? ”

Although Jin Yi's thinking hadn't kept up with Zhou Ke'er and the sand between his fingers, he still secretly dragged Shi Shi and signaled him not to say anything first, so as not to go wrong.

"Huh? Mr. Grassis, do you know Miss Sandyne? ”

Pleti asked with a little surprise when she heard this, slightly puzzled in her heart: Do the backgrounds of these two people actually intersect? ... It's strange that this Glacis is also related to the person who just left, and now he also knows this Shandein... But why isn't he in my background? Don't... Am I special?

"Acquaintance? Well... Sort of. ”

Zhou Ke'er replied noncommittally - in fact, it was because he didn't know the identity and background of the finger sand, if he directly, he would accidentally make a mistake later, it would be a goof, it would be better to let the finger sand make up the reason himself, anyway, Zhou Keer has now revealed his identity, although it is made up.

"I've only met a few times in court."

Seeing that Zhou Ke'er didn't answer directly, he turned his head to look at her, and understood what Zhou Ke'er meant, "I forgot to say, I'm a lawyer, and I have helped several factory owners fight lawsuits with this Mr. Glacis... I haven't won it, though. In recent years, even the courts have a stench of capital. ”

Zhou Keer raised her eyebrows.

Interesting, it seems that the finger sand doesn't want to help confirm Zhou Keer's NPC identity, but... substitute yourself into the identity of an NPC, and by proving Zhou Keer's identity background, you can make your identity background appear perfect and complex.

To put it this way... Finger Sand should be more than just an ordinary invitee, oh, in other words, all players should have a specific reason for coming here...

What you should know when you see that exclusive task can't be just him, Zhou Keer.

"Squeak...."

The sound of pushing the door sounded, and Zhou Keer came back to his senses.

The butler stood in front of the door and made a "please" gesture, "Everyone, please come in." ”

As the door gradually opened, an inexplicable chill lingered on everyone without warning, obviously there was no wind, but the decorative vines and plants that climbed on the outer wall of the manor were swaying, and there was no wind.

The light reflected from the manor, but it looked deserted, and the orange light reflected on the ground, but it did not give people a warm feeling.

The butler leaned sideways, half of his face hidden in the shadows, his cloudy eyes made it impossible to guess what he was thinking, and he looked a little mad in the cold, warm light.

"Da... Click..."

Zhou Ke'er took the lead and stepped into the manor, and for a while, only the slight sound of the cane in his hand constantly tapping on the ground remained.
