I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 615 - 443 Tingling Scalp

Even those who forced themselves to respond couldn’t say anything of substance. This was a tried-and-true tactic of Luodan’s.

"Then I’ll begin." After a brief pause, Xia Liang focused on the beginning of Luodan’s life trajectory.

Luodan was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Xia Liang to agree so readily, without the slightest hint of displeasure, so he simply nodded.

Then, Xia Liang began to speak. "However, before we start, I’d like to ask you something, Mr. Luodan. I know you’re skeptical of Diviners from our Dragon Country, but you didn’t have to give me a false name, did you?"

Hearing this, Luodan froze. He scanned Xia Liang warily before retorting, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand. I just told you my name."

Xia Liang chuckled. "Alright then. Since young Modi is unwilling to tell me his real name, I’ll continue to call you Luodan."

At these words, Luodan felt as if something had exploded next to his ear. He couldn’t help but look up from his computer to stare at Xia Liang.

Doubts began to surface in his mind. His real name was indeed Modi; Luodan was just an alias. For years, he had been in Eagle Country, exposing so-called Fortune Tellers and Witches. Many of them had tried to take revenge on him, so after a few bad experiences, he started using a fake name. Over time, he had gotten into the habit of introducing himself with his alias whenever he was in an unfamiliar place.

But how did this Dragon Country person in front of him know? This was only his second time in Dragon Country, and his trip to Xiangjiang today had been a last-minute decision. Their meeting had to be a coincidence. But if it was a coincidence, how could he know his real name?

Luodan’s brows furrowed, but he quickly came up with a plausible explanation.

I have millions of followers on YouTube, and they know my real name. Could this guy be one of my followers? That would explain it.

Thinking this, Luodan let out a sigh of relief. He had found a scientific explanation for the incident.

But Xia Liang continued, "You’re overthinking it, young Luodan. I don’t use YouTube, and I don’t have an account."

Hearing this, Luodan instinctively shot back, "Then how could you possibly know my real name?"

The moment the words left his mouth, Luodan realized something was wrong.

I only thought about him knowing my name from YouTube. I didn’t say it out loud. So how... how did this man know what I was thinking?

His gaze snapped toward Xia Liang, his expression instantly becoming guarded.

Xia Liang simply waved his hand, as if responding to Luodan’s unspoken question, the corners of his mouth slowly curling into a smile. "In my eyes, you have no secrets. As I said before, the Diviners of our Dragon Country are on a completely different level from the Fortune Tellers in your part of the world."

Hearing Xia Liang’s words, Luodan didn’t respond immediately. Instead, his gaze darted to his computer screen.

That has to be a lie. The screen will definitely show a change, proving this guy is lying. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

But strangely, the various graphs on the computer screen didn’t change at all.

It’s as if... everything Xia Liang said was true.

After confirming there were no changes on the screen, Luodan stared intently at Xia Liang, quickly trying to clear his thoughts.

This man from Dragon Country must have learned my real name from YouTube. He must have anticipated that I’d think of that, so he said what he did to create the illusion that he could read my mind. Yes, that has to be it. As for why the computer didn’t detect any lies... this man must have even convinced himself he was telling the truth. If you believe your own lies completely, it’s very difficult for a machine to detect anything.

"It’s all smoke and mirrors," Luodan finally said after taking a deep breath. "All this esoteric nonsense is fake. Science is the only thing that can explain the world."

Meanwhile, a peculiar smile formed on Xia Liang’s lips, as if he were preparing to drop a bombshell.

For some reason, Luodan suddenly shuddered.

Then, Xia Liang spoke slowly. "Does Lisa know you’re in love with her?"

BOOM!

Hearing this question, Luodan’s expression changed dramatically, and his face turned deathly pale. "Wh-what... I don’t know what you mean."

After several moments of staring at Xia Liang, who still wore that faint smile, Luodan managed to speak. He tried desperately to remain calm, but he couldn’t. His trembling body and the deathly pallor of his face were impossible to conceal on such short notice.

Internally, Luodan’s shock was even greater. Lisa was a classmate of his; they had grown up together. In Dragon Country terms, they were childhood sweethearts. But because their relationship was so good, he had always treated Lisa like a little sister. Only recently had he realized his true feelings for her. Afraid of losing their friendship, he never confessed. He even got another girlfriend to avoid arousing any suspicion. He had never told another soul about this, nor had he ever given the slightest hint. It was safe to say that besides himself, no one else in the world knew his innermost thoughts.
