Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Everything Is Fake

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Anyone with a big brain, please analyze it. What’s the secret behind his username?”

“Sienna Tower’s username should refer to the tower of Sienna in Paris.”

“So, what secret is related to that tower?”

“My brain is burning. I feel like watching a suspense drama is easier to understand than this.”

“It’s more interesting this way.”

Chat had many different opinions as they racked their brains to guess what secret was hidden in Sienna Tower’s username.

Glancing at the speculations of his viewers, Chen Yu said, “You’ve always had an extraordinary interest and talent in deception since you were young.”

“At the age of ten, you began to test your techniques on your student peers.”

“As you grew older, not only did you excel in swindling, but you also yearned for the same reputation as those legends.”

“You’ve always wanted to pull off a heist that can compare to them.”

“After a few years of planning, you pulled off those series of demolitions in Liangbei City.”

“In the eyes of others, this is the heist of the decade, but to you, this was an imperfect operation.”

“You used the Sienna Tower as your username to commemorate your idol, the world-famous con artist Victor Lustig.”

Upon hearing the name Victor Lustig, many viewers suddenly realized what was happening.

Victor Lustig was one of the most famous con artists in the world.

Relying on the superb art of deception, he pretended to be a government official twice.

He lied about selling the Eiffel Tower and scammed a large amount of money.

The Eiffel Tower was a national landmark in Paris, and no one would even believe it could be sold.

However, Victor Lustig did it.

He coaxed a group of people into believing his lies and even did the same scam twice.

He was a swindler among swindlers.

“Dr. Chen, please continue.”

Sienna Tower had mixed feelings.

Previously, he thought Chen Yu could only see through what he had done before.

He never expected even his inner thoughts to be transparent before Chen Yu.

He was no longer just a mystic teller but a god among men.

At this point, Sienna Tower had let it go.

He only wanted to know why his daughter wanted to stir up the thoughts that he had buried deep in his heart.

“About a month later, your daughter found a diary under the floor.”

“She learned that after you were released from prison, you had been drawing up a scheme, another scam.”

“You want to return to Liangbei City and use the same method of deceiving them again.”

This time, the viewers were the ones dumbfounded.

How could Sienna Tower be this bold?

That incident caused a massive ruckus back then, and Sienna Tower wanted to use the same scam in the same place again.

Did he really think that Liangbei City’s police were nonexistent?

However, they remembered that his idol was the world’s best con-artiest.

It seemed strange to have such thoughts, but someone managed to sell the Eiffel Tower twice in a row.

Wasn’t this as dangerous as what Sienna Tower was attempting to do?

Victor Lustig had succeeded, so why couldn’t he?

“Of course, although you have drafted out a complete plan, you have never thought about actually doing it.”

“On the one hand, you know that swindling doesn’t end well.”

“On the other hand, you want to be on the same level as your idol.”

“When your daughter read your diary, she lauded you for being such a great con artist and pestered you to teach her more tricks.”

“You may be lecturing her for asking this, but your inner thoughts stirred.”

“You unintentionally showed your daughter the essence of deception and your great skills.”

“After receiving your lessons, your daughter went out to start her practical lessons.”

“But this time, she got into big trouble.”

“The person she scammed was a gangster. The next day, he came to your house and threatened you with a million yuan. Otherwise, he would go to the police.”

“Just as you were about to return to your old job for that money, your daughter suddenly smashed a lamp into his head.”

“When you realized the man was no longer breathing, you feared that your daughter would be sentenced to death, so you immediately took her and fled.”

Sienna Tower’s eyes lost all light after hearing that his daughter would kill someone.

His heart was filled with regret.

She wouldn’t have ended up like this if he had never taught his daughter those swindling skills.

This was karma.

From a small lie to a scam, the greater the con artist, the faster his ambitions swell.

Wasn’t he like this back then?

Even though he had been in prison for many years, his pride in his skills had never diminished.

“Maybe she reaped what she sowed?”

“Basically.”

“I’ve seen people who seek death, but I’ve never seen someone like his daughter who dug their own graves so readily.”

When they learned that the daughter of Sienna Tower would become a murderer, the viewers collectively sighed.

Although they knew that this was the future, it was still difficult to hide the pity in their hearts.

A teenage girl should have a bright future.

But because she learned the art of swindling, she eventually became a death row prisoner.

While everyone was sighing, Chen Yu’s narration continued.

“Just as you and your daughter were about to escape, you were stopped at home by this gangster’s underling.”

“You saw your daughter get killed with your own eyes. You wanted to go up and fight, but you were knocked unconscious by him.”

“When you woke up, you appeared in the wilderness.”

“You feel like you’ve lost all hope. You’ve been like this all your life because of the start of one small lie.”

“Deception caused you to lose your family, freedom, health, and your daughter.”

“Just as you were about to commit suicide, your phone rang.”

“Everything you experienced was fake.”

Chen Yu said unhurriedly. “The victims your daughter scammed back then were all fake. The gangster was a fake, together with everything else.”

“It’s all fake?!”

Sienna Tower’s eyes widened.

“Yes.” Chen Yu nodded. “All of this was arranged by your childhood friend.”

“Him?”

Sienna Tower was shocked.

Immediately after, he understood why his childhood friend did this.

When he was young, he used his childhood friend to practice his deception skills.

Every time his childhood friend was deceived, Sienna Tower would feel extremely satisfied.

He mocked his childhood friend for his lack of intelligence; he couldn’t even see through such a simple scam.

“I understand; I understand now.”

Sienna Tower sighed.

He told Chen Yu how he had bullied his childhood friend when he was young.

On the day he was released from prison, his childhood friend took the initiative to pick him up from prison.

He even took the initiative to arrange a place for him to live and work.

Everything was set up for his revenge.

He had set up a scam for a professional swindler like him.

He wanted to let Sienna Tower have a taste of what it felt like to be scammed.

“Dr. Chen, the reason why my daughter was able to find the diary I hid was because my childhood friend installed a surveillance camera in my room, right?”

“Yes.”

Chen Yu nodded and continued, “However, you’ve misunderstood something.”

“What did I misunderstand?”

Sienna Tower asked.

“Even though you have tricked him many times, this childhood friend of yours has never hated you.”

“He installed surveillance cameras because he’s just worried that something might happen to you when your illness acts up.”

“As for this scam,”

“It’s a special treatment method that he designed for you after consulting several experienced psychologists,” Chen Yu said after pausing for a moment..
