When the plot-skips players into the game world Chapter 312

Chapter 312: Chapter 228 Found You, rlin Chapter 312: Chapter 228 Found You, rlin Aiwass returned to the second floor with the old Inspector and the journalist.

Up until now, he still hadn’t fully believed that the old Inspector was Pure White.

But whether he was played by Pure White, Living Silver, or soone else didn’t really matter.

Because he could neither be the Detective nor Lulu, and certainly not rlin.

Thus, the general stance of the other party could be determined—they were all in it together, and Aiwass didn’t need to distinguish them specifically.

He had confird that the “journalist” was definitely rlin, and could not possibly be Sherlock.

The real Sherlock didn’t have such a strong desire to climb the ranks—his primary goal was to help Isabel advance, yet at the sa ti, he didn’t have much expectation of Isabel.

...

Because his loyalty wasn’t to Isabel, but to the heir chosen by Queen Sofia.

In the end, his loyalty was to Queen Sofia, who had broken the traditions of Avalon, who still firmly saved her father when evidence of the prince’s assassination was conclusive, and who re-employed his elder brother.

How many Monarchs in the history of Avalon had such character?

…As for Isabel, Sherlock had always found her unreliable.

He was quite venomous with his words towards her when he didn’t know that Lulu was Isabel.

Even now, his dealings with Isabel still required Aiwass to act as a diator for them to get along smoothly.

—And another loophole was that he descended too quickly.

A true Detective, upon discovering a poisoned corpse, would first open the windows to ventilate, cautiously investigate the surroundings for remains, and seek a great deal of assistance to investigate together.

They would not rashly jump to examine the body.

Sherlock was not that kind of rash Detective.

He could maintain his composure almost at all tis.

If the journalist truly were Sherlock, then he would certainly prioritize gathering information from each floor.

If it were just one suicide, that would be fine…

The first death was guaranteed to be safe.

The journalist indeed claid to have already conducted an initial investigation.

But the real problem lay in why, after knowing the “teacher” was Fox, he didn’t share information with Aiwass or investigate the second round together?

Although Sherlock was aggressively offensive towards Aiwass, Aiwass knew…

Sherlock’s trust in him was probably on the sa level as Isabel’s.

If Isabel’s trust was based on sentintality, then Sherlock’s was based on rationality.

Knowing that on that floor, there were only Aiwass and himself, with no ears behind walls, Sherlock still didn’t conduct a thorough investigation or share any information but hastily pulled Aiwass into the next floor.

—What if the floor he t Aiwass on was floor zero?

His previous level could very well have been the first floor, and “Aiwass” could very well have been played by rlin.

Would Sherlock undergo successive suicides without any investigation?

Moreover, before confirming that Aiwass was “Fox,” he directly ntioned that the flow of ti or the entry points differed.

Such information could be realized by Aiwass after just one death.

But he said he had only seen Jacaranda once, which ant he hadn’t seen any other “resurrected” companions.

How could he be sure his situation wasn’t exceptional?

—Only rlin.

rlin knew Aiwass could not be rlin, and rlin also knew that Aiwass had indeed just appeared.

His words were the most efficient, the most persuasive to Aiwass, and also the most effective…

but it was precisely because he pursued efficiency in his words that he exposed his erroneous perspective.

But Aiwass had no intention of publicizing this.

Because he suspected that rlin had intentionally left this flaw exposed.

“Disclosure” seems to be a asure to counter rlin, but it is actually a trap.

— That’s right, if he directly revealed rlin, then rlin would indeed be trapped on this level.

But as long as this isn’t the zero level, they will ultimately have to leave this level.

Whether rlin is killed on this level, or they leave the level themselves, it would result in rlin being freed.

The ans of departure is death, and after death, rlin naturally can’t be locked up anymore.

So, in fact, when he exposed rlin’s identity, it was nothing more than confining rlin to this level.

Moreover, the price paid was that he himself was also trapped on this level at the sa ti.

If this is a higher level, lacking one person’s intelligence could lead to errors in the others’ reasoning, and this kind of misleading is completely constituted by facts and is very deadly; whereas if this is a lower level, rlin would still be squeezed out when the real actors arrive.

In other words, disclosing identities is only effective when everyone is on one level or a lower level like the zero level.

So, what if rlin’s identity is not disclosed?

As an Angel Envoy of the Great Sage, rlin should take the Great Sage’s ceremony seriously.

Although this ti the ceremony is only missing one person, according to the rules rlin can’t be too serious, he must go easy…

But when he chatted with him before, Aiwass had vaguely felt that there was a bit of unscrupulousness in rlin.

This unscrupulous old Fox would surely only go easy at the very end—definitely after having his fun with everyone, then he would reveal his flaw.

He certainly wouldn’t miss the chance to mock and laugh, being that kind of maligned, jovial character.

Aiwass didn’t actually dislike such people.

Besides not being as capricious, lively, and unscrupulous himself, essentially he and rlin were the sa kind of person.

But because they were the sa kind of person, Aiwass could guess rlin’s logic and thoughts.

Regardless, rlin’s arrangents must have co into effect only after Aiwass had uncovered him.

But Aiwass intended to pretend he hadn’t seen it.

Since Aiwass had not exposed his identity, it wouldn’t be good for rlin to just jump out and stop acting.

That would not only be too ugly but also losing face.

rlin himself had said that the ceremony now has the Nine Pillar Gods watching, giving it a different nature.

It’s now like a public class with leadership oversight, rlin can lose, but he can’t dredge, and definitely can’t be a sore loser.

That’s why he could only attack that front desk guy and couldn’t actively attack anyone else.

For rlin to win would be too easy, as he himself is the host.

He knows all the answers to the mystery.

But for that very reason, if rlin chose to win without sha, he would probably infuriate the Nine Pillar Gods.

Judging by rlin’s slickness, he was clearly very respectful and wary of the Nine Pillar Gods.

In the end, rlin is just an examiner and an actor, not even a director or screenwriter.

And at this mont, he was already in the play.

He could not transcend the rules of the ceremony, and was likewise involuntary.

rlin now had to follow Aiwass and genuinely help as a detective.

Unless Aiwass stopped acting, or the real master of this body arrived, rlin would have to keep playing along—

Until they made their way to level zero or level one.

— It would only be at that ti that the real contest would begin.

Aiwass knew this, and naturally, rlin knew it too.

The “reporter” just smiled wryly, following behind Aiwass.

But his gaze towards Aiwass’s back was full of profound aning…

it could even be said that he was eager to see a good show unfold.
