Chapter 13: Identity Exposed
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Just when Li Xiaonian and Kitten were fighting the boss hard.
In the real world.
In a low-key yet luxurious villa, a weekend party was reaching its climax.
Zhou Bing was lying on the swim ring in the pool, sipping red wine and gazing lasciviously at the breasts of the beauties. Suddenly, a waiter brought his cell phone over. “Young Master Zhou, you have an incoming call.”
“OK.”
Zhou Bing nodded, took the phone, and took a look. The caller ID showed: Detective Luo.
Picking up the call, Zhou Bing smiled and said, “Detective Luo, got any results on the information I asked you to check for me?”
Zhou Bing was no other than Lang Burang from the Skyfire Base. Although his name was a bit girly, he was actually ruthless and vindictive for the smallest revenge.
“Yes, Young Master Zhou, I’ve sent the information to your E-mail.”
“Uh, it’s not convenient for me to read emails now. Just tell me about it briefly.”
“Okay, Young Master Zhou, the real name of the person you asked me to investigate is Li Xiaonian. He is 18 years and a half, 5.7′ feet tall, and lives in Room 04, Floor 24, Xinyue Community, Guangnan City. He just graduated from high school this year and has very good academic records. He has an 11-year-old sister and his mother’s legs are paralyzed. His father is a technician of Tianhua Group. As for his parental grandfather and maternal grandfather, they’ve both passed away. Due to his mother’s paralysis, his family owes a lot of money, so their relatives all keep them away.”
The more Zhou Bing listened, the more gloomy his face became. “Are you sure, the result is not wrong?”
Detective Luo responded very positively, “Young Master Zhou, I am a professional investigator. Please have faith in my professional skills. In the beginning, I had 15 subjects of investigation, but I’ve checked and eliminated them one by one, and finally got the result. The person you asked me to find is definitely Li Xiaonian.”
“Okay, I see. I will transfer the money to your account.”
The phone was hung up.
Zhou Bing threw the phone into the swimming pool angrily, his eyes red. He gritted his teeth and said, “How dare this little punk make a fool of me? Good, very good.”
He asked someone to investigate Li Xiaonian not out of jealousy, but because he planned to find out Li Xiaonian’s preferences so as to cater to Li Xiaonian’s pleasure and establish a relationship with him.
After all, from the news disclosed by Li Xiaonian, his grandfather was a high-ranking official and his family business was very big. Such a person was certainly worthy of becoming his friend.
However, the results of the investigation, like a head-on blow, almost stunned him.
As for how he investigated Li Xiaonian, of course, it was through Li Xiaonian’s portrait. He happened to have a painter under his command, and he had that painter paint Li Xiaonian’s avatar in the game. After all, the appearances of avatars were based on real faces of players, and the two had very few differences.
“Oh, Young Master Zhou, what made you so unhappy that you even threw your phone into the water?” A young man in swimming trunks smiled.
Being provoked, Zhou Bing who was already furious was about to throw a tantrum, but when he saw who the speaker was, he smiled self-deprecatingly and said, “Young Master Meng, you won’t believe this. I was fooled by a little punk, and fooled miserably.”
Then Zhou Bing told the other party how he was fooled by Li Xiaonian in the game.
After hearing this, Young Master Meng couldn’t help but laugh and then asked, “Then what are you going to do to that guy?”
Zhou Bing shrugged, saying with an air of entitlement. “Since this asshole dares to make a fool of me, I’ll make him say goodbye to “Star Wind” forever.”
Young Master Meng was taken aback for a moment. “Really? He just fooled you, and you are going to kill him? Are you serious?”
Zhou Bing smiled awkwardly. “Young Master Meng, you really overestimate me. This is a society under the rule of law. I’ll never do illegal things. My plan is to use some precious game items and permanently seal his avatar.”
The Wolf Walk Guild had been silent for too long and happened to need to set an example as a warning to others. Li Xiaonian was a good choice. With such a great combat power, as long as he didn’t die, he would definitely become an opponent. Now, all he needed to do was to nip this rising star in the bud permanently, and then Wolf Walk Guild’s popularity would hit a new high.
As for Tianyu? The Wolf Walk Guild didn’t dare to seal his avatar, because if they did, A war was bound to break out between Sky Pavilion and Wolf Walk Guild, and by then it would only be a lose-lose situation.
…
In the game world of “Star Wind”.
Li Xiaonian and Kitten were working together better and better.
The giant crab had gone crazy, shooting sharp spikes at them from time to time, and even summoned a group of underlings from the lake.
Unfortunately, faced with the powerful Kitten and Li Xiaonian, all its efforts became futile.
Suddenly.
Li Xiaonian received a message. At first, he ignored it but the prompt sounds kept beeping, so he had to temporarily quit the battle and checked the messages.
Tianyu: “Buddy, you… you are really something! You literally fooled everyone.”
Tianyu: “Comrade Li Xiaonian, run away quickly. That bastard, Lang Burang is already on the way with his top-level precious items. This time, he plans to seal you permanently with the top-level Seal Scroll to kick you out of this game.”
Tianyu: “Have you received my messages? Reply to me when you get my messages. I’m not joking. It’s true.”
Tianyu: “Lang Burang has found out about your identity in the real world. That’s why he knew that you fooled everyone.”
Tianyu: “???”
Tianyu: “Are you scared silly?”
Reading the messages from Tian Yu, Li Xiaonian turned pale and looked at Kitten beside him.
She knows my secret. Is it she who revealed it? No, it shouldn’t be. She has just learned that I lied about my identity, and she seems to have a grudge against the Wolf Walk Guild. It shouldn’t be her.
Kitten was a woman of keen perception. Noticing that Li Xiaonian was staring at her, she said unhappily, “What are you looking at? You’re too young for me. Don’t tell me you have a thing for me. I have to say your taste is really strange.”
Li Xiaonian turned to look at the woods behind him, where there were already some noises.
“Sorry, my identity has been leaked, so I must leave now. I’m leaving first.”
After that, Li Xiaonian was hurrying towards the hills far away as fast as he could. He knew this game better than anyone. Was there really a permanent sealing item?
Yes, there absolutely was, but the price was terribly high. It was exactly because of the existence of this special kind of items that the top guilds would restrain themselves and wouldn’t easily launch a life-and-death war.
If he were Lang Burang and found out that he was fooled like this, he would have also taken out precious items to punish that guy as a warning to others, but he couldn’t be sealed, absolutely not. Once he was sealed, it would be all over.
Seeing Li Xiaonian run away, Kitten was astonished and then got angry. “Asshole, we can kill the boss in no time. How could you just run away?”
Without the treatment of a war doctor, no matter how weak the giant crab was, she wouldn’t be able to kill it alone.
In desperation, Kitten could only watch the boss run away and didn’t dare to continue attacking.
“Damn it.” Kitten cursed and then chased after Li Xiaonian.
After the two of them left, a large force of Wolf Walk Guild appeared, including at least several thousand people.
Glimpsing the boss was fleeing, Xiaolang immediately commanded, “The second team, go kill the boss, and the rest, follow me and chase him.”
Everyone triumphantly chased Li Xiaonian in his direction.
“Haha, isn’t June very strong? Why did he run away when he saw us?”
“Humph, finally our guild has a large-scale hunting event. I hope that June can hold on longer. Otherwise, it’ll be boring.”
The corner of a war doctor’s mouth twitched slightly. “Don’t say that. June is strong indeed. He can blow up our heads with a single shot. We’d better be careful.”
“Bah, if June didn’t deceive the Vice-President and trick him out of his [Blaster Pistol], no matter how strong he is, he is nothing but a newbie.”
…
This time, Lang Burang didn’t hide it but frankly admitted that he was deceived by Li Xiaonian. That was exactly the effect he wanted.
Would anyone dare to deceive him again? You’d better consider whether you can withstand the consequence of being permanently sealed.
