Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 203 - 202: Gorgeous Cage 49

She threw the notebook in front of Zhang Xiaomei, "You found out that someone else’s daughter was cyberbullied, and after she died, they made money. So, you meticulously planned this grand scheme as well. Really clever."

"If there’s no problem, just fabricate a blind date issue. Even if she never even went on a date with anyone."

"Deliberately guide the narrative, using video content to provoke attacks, making netizens mistakenly think she’s a girl who looks down on men, thus using gender opposition to put her on the hot seat."

"After discovering she was cyberbullied, not only did she not become depressed or suicidal, but also cursed the netizens harshly. To get the money, you stabbed your daughter to death and framed a boy who didn’t even know her."

"In order to harvest sympathy from netizens and get money, you killed two young people. Actually, I find it very strange. With that brain and guts you have, why can’t you succeed at anything else?"

Zhang Xiaomei, seeing everything exposed, decided to let it all out: "What do you know! This is the fastest way to make money! My son is over thirty, and with his intelligence, no girl would fancy him. Without money, how can I get him a wife?"

[Ding! Congratulations on completing the main mission "Uncovering the Truth Behind Er Miao’s Death," advancing the main mission by 20%. Current mission progress is 60%.]

Zeng Sheng, next to them, didn’t understand anything, shrinking in the corner bewildered and scared.

Rob’s eyes widened in shock, "So it was really you who killed them?! Holy shit!"

Josh looked at the mission prompt and instinctively exchanged glances with Yuze.

All three victims’ causes of death were clear, yet the main storyline advanced only to 60%. What’s going on?

Not right.

Something’s very wrong.

In the end, the three of them had no choice but to report it to the police and send the family to the police station.

Even though the public security here isn’t great, with such clear evidence and the bodies still in the house, the police would surely get involved.

Josh and the others returned to the hotel.

Rob looked at the two of them, bewildered, "What do we do now?"

Josh frowned slightly, as 40% of the main mission hadn’t advanced. This indicates they haven’t fully uncovered the truth behind the three victims’ deaths.

What seemed like a clear account of deaths and culprits might very well be... only a part of the picture.

Josh frowned slightly, putting together all the cyberbullying information related to the three deceased, hoping to find some commonalities.

Suddenly, a slender hand reached down, covering the materials. The long, slender fingers were elegantly shaped, with a faint pink at the fingertips, while the veins on the back showed tremendous explosive power.

Josh was momentarily confused, then quickly looked up to meet Yuze’s eyes, "Captain, what are you..."

"Take a break." Yuze took the materials away without allowing any argument, "This isn’t a timed task, whether you progress your main mission fast or slow won’t affect your score. Rest first; let’s eat and sleep before continuing."

Josh frowned slightly, "But I’m not hungry or tired now."

Rob, exhausted, lay back on the big bed. Seeing Josh so serious, he couldn’t help but feel a shiver down his spine, "Little Tactician, at least take a break. I noticed you keep running non-stop, haven’t even closed your eyes much, almost haven’t slept. Although we enter the instance with our spiritual bodies, such non-stop running still wears you out."

Josh still wanted to say something, but seeing Yuze’s determined expression, he reluctantly agreed, "Fine, I’ll rest a bit."

She sat aside, having nothing to do, feeling a bit awkward.

Rob patted the spot next to him, "Come sit here; this lazy couch is really comfy, all soft and cozy!"

Josh scooted over to sit next to him.

Yuze put the materials aside and went to tidy up the items on the table, "I’ll keep these materials for you; let’s rest for 4 hours. We’ll eat and then take a look tonight. I think all of this might be related to that God R in the virtual world. He has a definite reason for targeting you, and I think I might already know..."

"Captain..." Rob whispered.

Yuze looked over.

Rob pointed at the small head resting on his shoulder, speaking quietly, "The Little Tactician has already fallen asleep!"

Yuze’s eyes fell on the palm-sized small face on Rob’s shoulder, his gaze slightly flickering.

Why didn’t he notice before that Josh’s head was so small, like a child’s?

Rob, though tall at over 1.8 meters, was relatively slender and did not have wide shoulders.

Yet, even so, Josh’s head on his shoulder still appeared pitifully small.

Just a second ago, she kept claiming she wasn’t tired, but now she’s already asleep.

What else could it be but a child?

Yuze felt a sudden, inexplicable itchiness inside, frowning slightly, and suppressed the feeling, patting her twice.

Rob responded with an "Eh" sound, confused, "Captain, she just fell asleep, why wake her?"

Yuze’s mouth twitched slightly, "If she sleeps like this, won’t her neck be sore when she wakes up? Let her sleep on the bed."

Rob thought for a moment, "True, then I’ll move her to the bed."

He just reached out, but Yuze already bent down and, awkwardly yet carefully, picked up the drowsy Josh and placed her on the bed.

Rob watched as he clumsily yet cautiously laid her on the bed, gently covered her with the blanket, paused, pulled her hands out, placed them back, and finally tucked the blanket in.

How come he never noticed before that Captain was...

A potential ’daughter-slave’?

The people on the Federation Planet live up to around 300 years on average, while Spiritual Power Users can live for over 500 years.

Even though they still follow the adult age rules of 18, most of the people in their team are close to 100.

To them, the just-turned-17 Little Tactician is basically like a child.

Moreover, to be honest...

Before Josh joined the team chat...

He and Jiang Can discussed whether such a young child joining their team would cry for their mama or be afraid to sleep alone at night.

As they talked, the hearts of these grown men softened.

A child~

Soft little girl~

Adorable, not yet an adult cutie~

Possibly following them, calling each of them ’brother,’ tagging along like a soft little tail.

What did Yuze say at that time?

Rob tried to remember.

Oh, he seemed to have said: [A bunch of inexperienced fools, just one little sister and you’re immobilized?]

When she joined the team, they were all stunned by Josh’s mouth and occasional antics.

What soft little sister? More like a bristling megaphone flower!

However, despite the unaffected demeanor of the Captain, he cared the most for the Little Tactician.

Always overseeing her meals, watching her training, when seeing her being criticized online, he paid attention to her mental state, fearing that the little girl would be bullied into tears by online trolls.

If it weren’t for Ma Qi insisting they do not intervene, wanting to train Josh’s mindset, Yuze would have already had the network bullies cleared out.

Said they were inexperienced and captivated by one little sister, but who really was captivated?
