When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 91 - 48 The mantis stalks the cicada, with Bai Fu behind (two combined into one, seeking to read consecutively)_2

Hearing that Bai Fu was looking for her, Digging Girl, Dragon of Catastrophe, and those who had converted to worship Fu quickly surrounded her.

"The situation is like this."

Encircled by Digging Girl and the others, Bai Fu began to tell a story that was half-true, half-false.

The general idea was—

"I've been investigating a group of very bad people, and during the investigation, I was targeted by another group of very bad people. I'm not sure if these two groups are related, but to ensure the investigation goes smoothly, I need to figure out who the people targeting me are. However, I can't probe too obviously, as it might tip them off and jeopardize all my previous efforts."

Bai Fu purposefully omitted that the people targeting her were from the Truth Society.

She did this mainly because she had previously told Digging Girl that there were some things she couldn't reveal to players right now, not even their names, or else it would bring endless nightmares to the players.

If she now told the players she was investigating the Truth Society, wouldn't that contradict what she had said before?

Besides, not revealing the object of her investigation also created a sense of mystery for the players, driving them to keep getting closer to her in order to uncover the truth.

Digging Girl said, "FuFu, just tell us, how do you need our help?"

Bai Fu explained, "Before I came to you, I thought about it all night, trying to come up with a suitable method. But no matter how much I racked my brain, I eventually realized that to clarify the identities of those targeting me with the least cost, I could only rely on your power!"

What, only rely on us?

Digging Girl's chest puffed up with pride, involuntarily.

This was recognition!

She could already imagine how other players would react when they heard this. Thankfully, she had initiated video recording, so she would post this part to the Community later.

"I need you to disguise as me and act as bait. The task is very dangerous, and you might die, but you are amongst the Undying People, so... I'm sorry."

Bai Fu lowered her head, appearing somewhat apologetic.

Hearing this, Digging Girl was amused.

She thought Bai Fu was so worried that it must be something significant, but it turned out to be just asking her to serve as bait. She was a player, what did she have to fear about death?

"Leave it to me. However," Digging Girl scratched her head, "my height is quite similar to yours, FuFu, but in other aspects, we're nothing alike. It won't be easy to pass as you."

Dragon of Catastrophe nodded in agreement, "Hair can be dyed, breasts can be padded, but the face, no matter how you make up, won't be exactly the same."

"That's simple," Bai Fu pulled out two black masks, "I'll be wearing this during the operation, and at that time, you wear one too. Oh, and also this outfit."

She then took out a bag containing identical copies of her clothing and pants.

"With this equipment, indeed, it's possible to look quite similar, but to completely fool those lurking in the shadows, we might need to do something more."

At this moment, a light bulb went off in Digging Girl's mind.

"FuFu, can you say a few words for me?"

"Say what?"

"These few sentences..."

Bai Fu instantly understood what Digging Girl was getting at. Digging Girl wanted to record her voice using the game's recording feature and then play it back while impersonating her.

Dressed in the same outfit and with identical voices, who could say Digging Girl wasn't convincing?

Excellent, I hereby crown you the King of Ideas!

Bai Fu complied gladly.

At this moment, in the corner of the room, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi's face turned slightly green as he watched Bai Fu and the others chatting excitedly.

That year he was eighteen, at a hotel meeting, where he stood like a lackey.

It was a story in which everyone collaborated, but in the end, only Digging Girl received a task, and his situation was even more pitiful, not even getting a chance to speak with Bai Fu; he was purely an outsider.

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi was stimulated; in the past, he was always the brightest one at the center of the crowd.

But this was only temporary!

He secretly resolved that in the upcoming operation, if he could find an opportunity, he would win everything.

Affinity with Bai Fu, Affinity with An Ya, a foot in the door with the Truth Society – he wanted it all!

...

That evening, Bai Fu and the dispatched Action Team met up.

Seeing her new attire, both Xia Shi and Xu Hong, the captain of the first Action Team, were taken aback.

"Why are you wearing a mask now?"

Bai Fu explained, "This way, those from the Dark Web will have a harder time recognizing me. My name is already on the Dark Web's bounty list, and unless necessary, I'd rather not have a direct conflict with the Makarov Family."

The explanation made sense, so Xia Shi and Xu Hong didn't say much more.

"Start the operation!"

Including Bai Fu, the five of them rushed to the Dark Web's stronghold in Lynn at an incredibly fast speed.

This stronghold was very secretive, barely noticeable by the average person. Although Community had long pinpointed the stronghold's location, due to the business dealings between Dark Web and Genetic Primordial, they had always treated this stronghold as non-existent, and the operators of Dark Web were usually tactful enough not to initiate any friction with Community.

Tonight's situation was quite unique.

When Xu Hong led the charge into the stronghold, the people inside did not react at all.

"Hands up!"

"What... what do you want to do?"

The few men sitting and playing cards at the table stood up, throwing their cards aside and subconsciously raising their hands.

As Xu Hong got closer, one of them's face suddenly changed, "Aren't you with Community? What's the meaning of this?"

Xu Hong sneered and pressed the gun to the man's forehead, "What's the meaning? Tell me, was it through your private network that the person who hired the assassin to kill Bai Fu communicated with the assassin? Is he hiding in Lynn?"
