......

Mu Sicheng ran around the car more times than he could remember, and only when he reached the new platform did he have a chance to catch his breath, as he lay on his back and dosed himself with a stamina rejuvenator, wiping the hair from his sweaty cheeks and glancing grimly at Bai Liu, who was also resting.

"Bai Liu, did you already guess that my personal skill was stealing?" Mu Sicheng made the same guess as Wang Shun, "You lured me in by stealing from me, making me think that your skill was stealing and lowering my guard. "

"You deliberately pretended not to guess my skill at the game entrance before, and casually said that my skill was Five Senses Enhancement, but you already knew that my skill was Theft, didn't you?" Mu Sicheng's gaze was electric as he looked calmly straight at Bai Liu.

"Yes." Bai Liu confessed.

Mu Sicheng took a deep breath as he stared at Bai Liu with a deadly stare, "When did you know that?"

Personal skills are not discussed on the forums, because revealing them would offend people, except in the case of the Puppeteer, where players are required to spread their skills out in the open, but not in the open.

Bai Liu is a newcomer, and the only way to know his skills is to buy Mu Sicheng's gameplay videos and watch them.

However, the player's skill panel is not available to viewers, meaning that viewers cannot see what the player's skills are, and Bai Liu can only find out what his personal skills are by buying Mu Sicheng's videos multiple times or by discussing them with other veteran players offline.

But Bai Liu had never purchased a Mu Sicheng video, and since Bai Liu was the first to find him this time around, he never had the chance to discuss Mu Sicheng's skills with other players who knew about them!

Why does this guy know what his personal skills are?!

Bai Liu: "I knew what your skills were when I logged out of Siren Smallville's to meet you."

Mu Sicheng looked at Bai Liu incredulously: "When Siren Town came out? I found you almost as soon as you logged out, you couldn't have had time to know what my skills were?!"

"I did just start out trying to trick you into a bottle of mental bleach, I didn't think to set you up." Bai Liu Liu rubbed his nose, "It was your reaction that revealed your personal skills as theft, and didn't you say yourself that you were fourth on the Rising Stars list, and your strength looked pretty good, so I thought to myself that you were here, and it seemed a bit of a loss to me not to do something about you, so I just went along with it ...... "

God damn it all, it's a bit of a loss if you don't do something about it, is this guy a Groucho, the goose is over the hump?!

Mu Sicheng's chest rose and fell in exasperation and he questioned with great disbelief, "How did my reaction reveal my personal skills?"

Bai Liu turned his head to look at Mu Sicheng: "Because after I [stole] your mental bleach, your first reaction was that my skill was theft."

"Or what?" Mu Sicheng was speechless, "Is there any other skill that can take things directly from my system storage?"

Bai Liu calmly prompts, "But in the system lobby, you are aware that theft is explicitly forbidden, but your reaction when I got your stamina supplement for the second time was still insistently overwhelming that my skill was theft, and I think normal players would have thought of my personal skill differently, like how I could manipulate you into gifting me something, but you didn't. "

"You haven't even changed your mind about the notion that you think my skills are theft until I get into the game."

Mu Sicheng froze.

Bai Liu scanned Mu Sicheng: "This is your subconscious reaction - it shows that you have a strong subconscious obsession with this thing called theft, and personal skills are linked to desire, so I'm just going to guess that your skills are, more than likely, linked to theft. "

"Fuck. " Mu Sicheng interrupted Bai Liu with an embarrassed look on his face, "Even if you've been trying to manipulate and use me since so early on, you can't even guarantee 100% that I'll follow you into the game next time, and if I don't follow you into the game, you'll have wasted all that padding! "

"It's true that I'm not 100 per cent sure you'll follow." Bai Liu admitted matter-of-factly, "But I'm about eighty percent sure that you'll follow."

Bai Liu raised his eyes, "Because I have something you want to steal, a mermaid's talisman, don't I?"

Mu Sicheng breathes a sigh of relief.

"The other thing I thought was strange before was why you came to the game logout to find me." Bai Liu continued, "You're a pretty good player in this game, even if you were curious about my personal skills, you wouldn't keep sticking to me after losing two thousand points."

Bai Liu looked up, "You're not a fool, you're not interested, there must be something on me that you want and you're confident that you can get it, that's why you came to me as soon as I logged in and made sure you had it on you, in the jargon of your thieves. -stamping, right?"

Mu Sicheng's face finally turned black: "You already knew that I wanted to steal the [Mermaid Amulet] from you? You used this thing to bait me?"

Bai Liu switched to a euphemism as he smiled amiably, "How can I call off your bait God Mu, I'm mainly seeking your cooperation and this is a gift from me to you, you see, I can manipulate you now and I'm not asking you to give it back am I?"

Bai Liu is at the top of his game with his eyes wide open, but he can't manipulate Mu Sicheng and give him that [Mermaid's Amulet], and at the moment Bai Liu and Mu Sicheng's skills are really about cooperation.

But Mu Sicheng looked a little better after hearing this. Bai Liu did not ask him to return it, which at least meant that Bai Liu was not like a puppet master who would use his puppets without regard for life and death, and that he was safe for the time being.

Mu Sicheng stopped talking to Bai Liu, a player who was so angry that his liver hurt, and opened his panel to take a look.

[Player Mu Sicheng's personal panel].

[Vitality: 94 (drops after being burnt by flames)

[Stamina Value: 30 (depleted, recovering)]

[Mental Value: 75 (mildly alienated by passenger attack)]

If Mu Sicheng had been running on his own, his stamina would not have dropped so badly, and he would not have been accidentally burned by the group of monsters, all because he had brought a Bai Liu with him, and the stamina he used to maintain his original speed was almost doubled by using his skills.

Mu Sicheng was now unsure of the extent of Bai Liu's control over him, and he didn't dare to do anything rash to hurt Bai Liu, but that didn't stop Mu Sicheng from being verbally sarcastic: "You're actually running out of stamina from being carried by me, and with your panel attributes being this weak, you should have died a long time ago. "

"Didn't God Mu lend me a helping hand and I didn't die?" Bai Liu returned, still languidly, as he opened the panel, "A great disaster is a great blessing, we triggered the first monster book."

[Bursting Last Train Monster Book Refresh - Bursting Passengers (1/3)]

[Monster Name: Burst Passenger

[Features: Very fast movement speed (1000 points of movement speed, flame has a bonus effect)].

[Weakness: ????? (to be explored)]

[Attack: Burned by the fire from the bursting passenger's body, the life and spirit value will be reduced].

"What's the point of triggering the first monster book?" Mu Sicheng snorted and tilted his head to drink his stamina restorer dry, "You wouldn't want to collect all the monster books in a level 2 copy like Burst Last Train, would you? Bai Liu I tell you, even for a player of my level, I wouldn't dare to collect the monster books in a level 2 game that has no one through it at all."

"There's always a first time for everything." Bai Liu, who always has a knack for pissing people off, smiled idly, "I'm here this time, aren't I? God Mu, why don't you try and get it all together? Let's work together."

When the word [Cooperation] is used, Bai Liu is almost explicitly threatening Mu Sicheng that he will force him to help him collect the monster book.

Mu Sicheng felt the anger that had sunken into his heart rise again, and he took two deep breaths to adjust his heartbeat and breathing so that he wouldn't die of anger: "You've got zero fucking panel life, and you still want to collect the monster books, you really want money over life."

Bai Liu is well deserved: "You're right, that's the kind of person I am."

Mu Sicheng: "......"

Mu Sicheng is right, Bai Liu's panel is much more miserable than Mu Sicheng's A-list panel.

[Player Bai Liu's personal panel].

[Life: 31 (Drops after being attacked by player Mu Sicheng and after being burned by flames)]

[Stamina Value: 8 (depleted, recovering)]

[Mental Value: 90 (mildly alienated by passenger attack)]

Mu Sicheng let out a deep breath as he calmed his stifled emotions, now that he was tied to Bai Liu in a boat, he barely kept his composure and spoke to Bai Liu: "You have already experienced the consequences of a drop in mental value, perhaps you do not realise the importance of life value, let me talk to you about the consequences of a drop in life value. "

"Life value is the only attribute that players can't automatically restore in the game, you clear zero is death, there is no way to restore it with any props, listen Bai Liu, you only have 31 life value now, it's already dangerous, a random monster in this level 2 copy will get you a few more times and you'll be dead, I advise you better not think about collecting monster books. "

Bai Liu didn't say yes or no, he digressed, "That broken lens we always have to collect."

Mu Sicheng closed his eyes and rested to regain his strength without saying anything as Bai Liu continued his analysis.

"The game appears to be one station where passengers get on and off at the same time, and when we get on passengers we face a chase, and when we get off passengers, the underground doors close as soon as the passengers have gone, and if there aren't any lenses on the train and the lenses are on the underground station outside the train, then we only have one chance to search for them."

Bai Liu thought: "That's when the passengers get on the train, we have to search the station for the broken lenses while they're on the train and come back before the doors close, otherwise we'll be in the station with the 'passengers', I think the puppet master I think the puppet master, should have been on the station during the chase."

"How do you know?" Du Sanying, who had been hiding in the corner, finally asked curiously.

He was in the best shape of any of them, and although his little bumper car was covered in blood and little Ma Baoli's face was covered in all sorts of charred flesh, Du Sanying himself was unharmed.

"Because we just ran back and forth throughout the car during the chase and didn't encounter anyone else." Bai Liu leaned against the wall and wiped the sweat from the side of his face, "If it wasn't that coincidental that we brushed up against this Puppeteer every time, it was that this Puppeteer wasn't even in the car when we were being chased."

"Ah...!" Du Sanying was a little anxious, "Then wouldn't the Puppeteer of the Threads be able to quickly collect all the mirror pieces and pass the level?"

"Well, I don't think so." Bai Liu lifted his eyes to look at Du Sanying for a moment, "I think it's likely he didn't find the broken lens on the platform."

Du Sanying was stunned: "Why would you think that?"

"Because if I were him, there's only one thing I'd do after I made sure the broken lens was on the platform." Bai Liu held up his index finger to make a one, his gaze stoic, "And that would be to come to us."

"Why would they come to us if they were sure the broken lens was on the platform?" The more Du Sanying listened, the more confused he became.

"The underground station has a stopping time of only two minutes, I surveyed the area of this station, it would be impossible for the puppeteer to search a platform and then return to the train in those two minutes, even if the puppeteer had three puppets of Mu Sicheng's speed (Mu Sicheng gritted his teeth and rubbed them together when he heard this). "

"Because finding something takes time, it takes searching, it doesn't have much to do with speed." Bai Liu continued without changing his face, "There are 11 platforms on this underground line 4, and apart from the starting and ending platform [Antique City] where we got on, there are 10 other platforms on this line 4."

"It has just taken us over three minutes to get from our departure to the first platform, and with the two minutes spent stopping, each platform took about five minutes or so, and a line down the 10 minute platforms is over 50 minutes, and the countdown is only one hour, proving that most likely this line 4 would have taken us only once before the explosion, which means that if the broken lens was on the platform, we had one and only one chance to search the platform, but the puppet master's three puppets simply couldn't search the entire platform in two minutes."

"So he will come to us." Bai Liu concludes.

Du Sanying's eyes were burning with mosquito smoke: "Why?!"

Bai Liu, the last sentence you just said doesn't connect with your conclusion at all!

There's no way the three puppets can search the whole booth in two minutes and then the puppeteers will come for us! Why! It's not like we're going to help this puppeteer search the stand - wait!

Du Sanying came to his senses with a start and looked at Bai Liu with some consternation.

"Because he's short of people." Bai Liu looked towards the empty end of the rocking train, "After confirming that the key clue was indeed to get to the broken lenses on the platform, he would have found a way, to turn us all into puppets under his command."

"But he shouldn't come to us lightly until he's confirmed the key clues."

--

"My Lord, the broken lenses are not on the platform." Li Gou's tone was extremely low, his posture respectful to the point of being on thin ice, "The three of us weren't able to search the entire platform, we just searched most of the area near the underground tracks as you said, and indeed it wasn't there."

"Not a single broken lens?" Zhang Gui's eyes narrowed into a thin ink slit on his puppet face, "That's odd, this game should be able to search the station for broken lenses, is it because they haven't all been searched?"

Li Gou whispered, "Only the top of the platform wasn't searched, but there were so many of those burning passengers up there that we couldn't get up there."

"I know, I'm standing by the door manipulating you, I've grown eyes to see." Zhang Gui waved his hand impatiently, the transparent silk threads tugging at his fingers brought Li Gou to his knees in an instant, "I'm thinking about our next plan, don't interrupt me!"

Li Gou gritted his teeth for a moment, and when he saw that Zhang Gui seemed to have pulled himself out of his thoughts, he couldn't resist proposing in a whisper again, "My lord, if the game is out of ideas for now, why don't we make a move on Bai Liu and the others first?"

Li Gou has been holding a grudge against Bai Liu because of the promotion spot, but Bai Liu has come to prominence before, and if he were alone he might not have chosen to take action against Bai Liu, but now he is backed by a big tree, which happens to be very unhappy with Bai Liu, so he would be too broad-minded if he didn't If he didn't go along with it and get rid of this little bitch who had stolen his promotion, he would be too broad-minded.

If Bai Liu hadn't stolen his promotion spot last time, he would have collected all the points for the props to get out of jail and would have been out there having a good time by now!

Li Gou really didn't want to spend a single second in that prison!

"Don't lay a hand on Bai Liu until I know exactly where the lenses are hidden." Zhang Gui looks at Li Gou from above as if he were looking at a foolish fool.

"If we go after him, we will have to start a conflict. If we start a conflict, they will have a Mu Sicheng who has a grudge against me and will definitely come as a stirrer to give me a hard time., make sure the game is cleared first before we go into all this incidental stuff, don't put the cart before the horse."

Li Gou gritted his teeth and whispered in response, "Yes, Master."

After a while, Li Gou asked again reluctantly, "So, master, the broken lens is not on the platform or on the train, where could it be?"

"Wait--" Zhang Gui seemed to suddenly think of something and blushed, "Wouldn't it be in-- "

----

" Mu Sicheng, did you try to go over and steal something from the monster?" Bai Liu asked as he moved closer to Mu Sicheng.

Mu Sicheng impatiently pushed Bai Liu away: "No way, I can steal from players, I've stolen from Spades, but not from monsters."

"Why?" Bai Liu pondered, "Did the system decide it was invalid and couldn't be stolen or?"

Mu Sicheng gave Bai Liu a sidelong glance: "I don't know what kind of tricks you're playing, let me tell you straight Bai Liu, I can indeed steal some items from monsters, but after I steal them, the monster's hate value will always be locked on me, I will be whisked away until the end of the game, I can easily die, even in level 1 I can die easily even in a level 1 game, let alone in a level 2 game, so if you're going to use me again, it's best not to use me for this kind of one-off stupidity."

"Hate value ......" Bai Liu was lost in thought, his fingers fiddling with the coin in his hand, suddenly raising his eyes to Du Sanying who was eating a biscuit in the corner to recover his strength.

Bai Liu's eyes narrowed with a kind smile much like the Big Bad Wolf tricking Little Red Riding Hood, " Du Sanying, have you ever played a major online game?"

Little Red Riding Hood Du Sanying, with biscuit crumbs still stuck to the corner of his mouth, opened his mouth in confusion before answering the Big Bad Wolf's question honestly: "Played."

"Do you know how to play with hate transfer?" Bai Liu turned around and crouched closer to Du Sanying.

Du Sanying didn't know why the back of his neck was a bit chilly, moved back a bit, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a small voice with his head shrunken, "Knowing, knowing a little, OT something or other, right?"

"Yes!" Bai Liu snapped his fingers and smiled more and more kindly, "It's like after Mu Sicheng goes to steal something from a monster, the monster's hate value is locked on him, I attack the monster until the monster transfers the hate value to us and we hang the monster away to facilitate Mu Sicheng's stealing, drive the train know it ? Hanging a long string of monsters behind us ......"

"Wait!" Du Sanying completely missed the fact that Bai Liu's wording had changed from [I] to [we], and he interrupted with a bit of a stutter and confusion, "Isn't this a collection-oriented game? What does this have to do with online games and train driving and hatred and stuff? Isn't our main task supposed to be finding broken lenses?"

"Right." Bai Liu looked up and he spread his hands, "Where else do you think the broken lens could be if not on the train or on the platform?"

Du Sanying is increasingly confused: "Where else could ...... be?"

Bai Liu hooked his mouth, "I've thought before that it's unlikely that the broken lenses were outside the train, as the mirrors exploded inside the carriage, unlikely to be on the platform, and if the carriage wasn't, is it possible that the broken lenses were embedded in the passenger's body as a result of the explosion and the splash?"

Du Sanying: "......"

Mu Sicheng: "......"

Fuck (a plant)!

"So-" Bai Liu looked innocently at Mu Sicheng, "God Mu, looks like you'll have to try stealing some of these non-human things after all."
