Chapter 24 Clues

At this time, Qin Wei nodded to Ling Chen, coughed slightly and said:

"When you were away just now, Lin Zhiwen promised me that he would not make the same mistake again in the future."

Then, he pointed to his nose and continued:

"As long as he doesn't hold back, I will never send him to die on purpose, nor will I assign him any too dangerous tasks."

As soon as Qin Wei opened his mouth, he confirmed that his relationship with Lin Zhiwen had indeed eased.

On the other side, although Lin Zhiwen still had the slightest hint of anger on his face, he was undoubtedly much calmer than before.

Based on Qin Wei's previous behavior, his character does not seem like he would lower his profile and take the initiative to apologize to Lin Zhiwen.

So... based on what Ling Chen saw when he went upstairs, it was obvious that Lin Zhiwen was persuaded by Chen Qianru and ran to apologize to Qin Wei.

That's why things changed 360 degrees.

And the content of Chen Qianru's persuasion is not difficult to guess. It is nothing more than saying not to offend the senior contractors, or saying that we should stick together, there is strength in numbers, etc...

Ling Chen guessed that the reason why she did this was probably to find an ally to increase her voice in the team.

It can be seen from the previous battle that Chen Qianru's fireball technique is not very powerful and can only deliver one blow in a short period of time.

If she reluctantly delivers the second blow, she will lose her combat ability and her ability to sustain combat will be very poor.

Among the three contractors who possess the spell, she is undoubtedly the weakest one, so it is normal for her to find allies.

You must know that after your voice is increased, the possibility of being used as cannon fodder will be greatly reduced.

If Chen Qian does this, it is only human nature.

But having said that, she actually has no choice when it comes to choosing allies.

Among the three people besides her, Qin Wei is the strongest and is inherently the most powerful, so there is little chance of him being won over.

As for this guy Ling Chen...

In Chen Qianru's eyes, he was an out-and-out ruthless person, even using his left hand as bait without changing his expression.

Chen Qianru had no confidence that after forming an alliance with him, she would not be turned against him.

In the end, only Lin Zhiwen was left, who had no spells and had offended others because of his timidity...

For Chen Qianru, the probability of success in wooing Lin Zhiwen is definitely the highest.

And after forming an alliance, there is no need to worry that this boy without a spell will break away from control and do things that harm her interests.

In this way, while enhancing your voice, you don't have to worry about being controlled by your allies.

but……

In addition, Ling Chen thought of more.

In fact, after forming an alliance with the weak Lin Zhiwen, there is actually a hidden benefit.

If Chen Qian formed an alliance with Lin Zhiwen after realizing this, then her purpose would be really intriguing.

Thinking of this, Ling Chen couldn't help but look at Chen Qianru meaningfully.

Qin Wei waved his hand and then said:

"Back to business, the three of us just ran to Uncle Thomas to find out some information."

Ling Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Since the other party brought up this topic, he must have gained something, otherwise he wouldn't have brought it up specifically.

Ling Chen raised his hand to signal the other party to continue speaking.

Qin Wei coughed lightly, cleared his throat and said:

"We took advantage of the village chief's absence to ask Uncle Thomas the same question as before."

When he said this, he paused for a moment, showed a playful smile, and then said slowly:

"At first he still refused to let go, but I persisted and asked several times, and got an intriguing answer."

Listening to Qin Wei's narration, Ling Chen gradually understood some of the things that happened in the village in the past...

About twenty years ago, someone found a woman passed out in the jungle.

At that time, there was a carriage beside her, but no horses or driver were found.

There was nothing suspicious inside the carriage, only a few pieces of accompanying luggage were found.

Later, the villagers took her unconscious back to the village and gave her treatment, hoping that when she woke up, she could tell what happened.

Why did she pass by here? And where were the horses and the driver?

However, when she woke up, she claimed that she had lost her memory and could not remember anything, including her own name.

The villagers originally planned to send her away from the village after she recovered. After all, no one wanted to live with someone of unknown origin.

But no one expected that during her recuperation, she would secretly fall in love with George, who was not the village chief at the time.

Then, George insisted on letting her stay and marry her...

Since the village chief was George's father, everyone had to reluctantly agree to let her stay and settle down.

After George married her, he announced that his wife was weak and could not go out for a long time.

So since then, she has lived in seclusion and rarely appeared in the public eye.

The origin of the daily habit of deliberately not having contact with outsiders has always been an unknown mystery...

There is no doubt that both of these points are very easy to doubt.

Gradually, the villagers spread many rumors and speculations about her identity based on their own guesses and fantasies.

After hearing this, Ling Chen could probably imagine what the villagers' guess would be.

He said calmly:

"One of the guesses must be related to witches?"

Qin Wei hummed and gave a positive answer:

"Yes, there are several versions of the rumor, and one of them is about witches."

Ling Chen raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately asked:

"What's the specific content?"

Qin Wei shrugged and said in a regretful tone:

"About this... Matos said that this happened many years ago, so he doesn't remember it clearly."

After hearing this, Ling Chen frowned and said calmly:

"The first clue we have now is that the current village chief's wife may be related to the witch, but there is no further specific statement?"

Qin Wei nodded and sighed, but said nothing.

Ling Chen thought about it for a while and said expressionlessly:

"We'd better walk around the village and try to find relevant people to see if we can... get the full content of the rumors."

Lin Zhiwen raised his hand and suddenly said doubtfully:

"Don't you already have preliminary assumptions? Why not confront the village chief directly?"

In fact, after he slowly calmed down, he realized that his quarrel with Qin Wei was really unwise.

At that time, the moment Qin Wei made the threat, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

He finally realized that this was a replica world, not reality...

The person in front of me is a senior contractor who possesses a spell, not his family or friends who would usually accommodate him.

If you quarrel with a friend, the result will be a fight at most, but no serious consequences will be caused.

However, there are no protection regulations here, and contractors with extraordinary power will not follow realistic moral standards...

If you recklessly offend a senior contractor, the consequences can be imagined.

Although they couldn't kill each other in peaceful mode, Qin Wei's threat told him that just because they couldn't kill, it didn't mean they couldn't stumble in secret.

For example, breaking one's own hands and feet, or deliberately failing to help when a monster attacks...

Once the above situation occurs, as the only person without a cursed object, Lin Zhiwen will undoubtedly be eliminated early.

Even if others successfully pass the level later, it has nothing to do with him...

Because, in the world of purgatory games, being out means death, and there is no chance to put in coins and try again.
