Chapter 873 The Truth
Chapter 873 The Truth
Fu Ling loosened his grip a little, and Director Wang had the chance to catch his breath, breathing in the hard-earned air. Just now, he really thought he was going to die. This girl was so cruel. She would attack him at the first sign of disagreement without any hesitation.
The information we knew before was still too one-sided.
Fu Ling was very angry. She said to Director Wang coldly, "If you want to live, answer my question. What exactly are you?"
This time, Director Wang finally didn't dare to continue playing dumb. The power disparity was so huge that even if he fought to the end, he would never be her opponent.
"I..." Just as he was about to tell the truth, he exploded.
If there hadn't been a transparent barrier in between, the explosion would have directly affected her.
Even if you are not killed by the explosion, you will be injured.
She just noticed Director Wang's expression, and the other party seemed to have blown himself up without knowing it.
The situation is even more complicated now. What kind of person could possess such powerful strength? How could he remotely control the life and death of others?
It's really scary, a bit like some kind of forbidden spell. Once you reveal the relevant secret, you will get the corresponding punishment.
Fu Ling had no idea what was going on, he just felt like he was in the middle of a huge conspiracy.
It wouldn't matter if it was just her, but she has so many people she cares about.
No matter which one of them got into trouble, it would be a huge blow to her.
Even though she got 10 points from Director Wang, she didn't feel much better.
He walked to the location of the man in black robe with an expressionless face.
But he was invisible at the moment, and there was nothing in the area where he was.
Fu Ling snorted coldly: "In front of me, you'd better save your little tricks. Even if you are invisible, I can easily find your location."
"Don't you want to kill me? I'm right in front of you now, why don't you come and kill me? Why are you being a coward?" Fu Ling sneered at the black-robed man inside the barrier.
The man in black robe complained bitterly. Didn’t he want to take action?
The moment he saw Fu Ling, he decided to sneak up on her and deliver a fatal blow. However, before he could get close, he was blocked by something invisible and couldn't hurt her at all.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Fu Ling was never very friendly to his enemies.
Then the transparent barrier began to shrink continuously until the black-robed man was unable to move, and then Fu Ling stopped.
Seeing this, the man in black robe dared not disobey and quickly came out of stealth.
"I'm curious how you managed to be invisible?"
Fu Ling didn't believe that the other party also had an invisibility talisman.
Although the man in black robe was unwilling to accept it, he had to bow his head now that he was caught: "This is an invisibility robe. As long as you put it on, you can become invisible."
"But you are still wearing it, why are you not invisible?"
"Just lift the hat and you'll be out of invisibility."
So that's how it is. It seems to be quite useful. If she didn't think it was dirty, she would have wanted to confiscate it.
If she hadn't known about this existence beforehand, it would have been very easy to assassinate her, even the system hadn't noticed anything abnormal about her.
Fu Ling secretly became alert and decided to keep the self-defense weapon given by his grandfather ready for use 24 hours a day, always paying attention to whether there are any invisible guys around him.
"Where did you get this robe?"
"It was given to me by a mysterious young man." The man in black robe replied honestly.
"Who is the mysterious guy?"
"I really don't know. He gave me some things and asked me to help him."
Then he looked at Fu Ling and said, "Actually, I didn't want to kill you. He ordered me to take your life, and he was the one who told me about you."
Fu Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, crossed his arms and asked, "What did he tell you?"
"He said..." The man in black robe had lost his previous confidence and spoke incoherently.
Fu Ling sneered at the man in black robes, "Didn't you just vow to kill me? You even planned to harm my family. How did you change your mind in just a moment? You weren't like this just now. You were so hardened and ruthless."
"Brother, you didn't explain it to me clearly. I didn't expect your methods to be so strange..."
"What did that guy say to you? Tell me the truth. If there's even a hint of falsehood, you'll go to hell with Deputy Director Wang. It's just good company."
"I'm telling you, he said you were a spirit from another world... and that you had a lot of secret weapons."
Fu Ling's heart skipped a beat. It was understandable if he knew she had a secret weapon, but knowing that she was a soul from another world, he could count her attacks with a single slap on his hand.
How did that guy know?
"I was just following orders. Everything I said and did was based on what the young man told me. Before this, I was just a profiteer. He was the one who approached me..."
As he spoke, he took off his black robe, and his entire temperament changed drastically.
The first adjective that came to Fu Ling's mind was "vulgar".
"Hmph, stop pretending." Fu Ling's eyes were like sharp knives, making the man in black robe feel cold all over.
"What am I pretending to be?"
"You must be the young man. Your temperament just now is completely different from now. Your acting skills are pretty good. I almost got fooled by you." Fu Ling said coldly.
The black-robed man's expression froze for a moment, then returned to normal. He looked at Fu Ling with a half-smile and asked, "How did you figure that out?"
Really? Of course she didn't know, she just deliberately tricked him.
If the other party is an ordinary person, the system will not fail.
This alone is enough to prove that this guy is not simple.
What kind of speculation and profiteering is that? With his physique, he must have been robbed countless times. Speculation and profiteering also have risks.
"It's just pure speculation. I wasn't sure at first, but judging by your expression now, I'm certain it's correct."
"Fu Ling!"
Fu Ling looked at him with a half-smile, but said nothing.
The other party was obviously very angry. He gritted his teeth and said, "Fu Ling! It's all because of you that my work was ruined!"
Hearing this, Fu Ling had a bold idea in his mind: "I don't even know you, if you say that, I'll sue you for defamation."
"Hmph, don't think you'll be alright just because you deny it. This world originally belonged to me, but you dragged it off its original path. Your appearance was a mistake in the first place."
"If I'm not mistaken, you're the brain-dead writer, right?"
The other party was speechless for a moment, and his eyes began to evade: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"I was wondering who could have such great power. It turns out it's you. How did you know I'm a spirit from another world? Do you know me?"
Seeing that the other party already knew the truth, he no longer tried to hide it. "I accidentally found out about it when I saw the news. Two women died suddenly after drinking in a nightclub. One was named Fu Ling and the other was named Xiang Yi. Coincidentally, both are the names of characters in my book, so I paid special attention to it. But I didn't expect that this was just the beginning of the story."
