Who wants to become a god? Aren't you all forcing me?

"Hehe." Li Chenqiu chuckled softly, "Quite an interesting story."

"By the way, can you guess why no animals suspected the tiger?" Ye You narrowed her eyes, looking at Li Chenqiu expectantly.

Li Chenqiu grinned, "Is it because the tiger killed all the animals that saw it stealing fruit?"

Ye You clapped her hands, feigning surprise, and said, "You guessed it, but this tiger was very careless and let a wolf escape. This wolf shouted out the fact that the sheep was the tiger. The story ends here. What do you think?"

Li Chenqiu shook his head, "Not great. Although it has a twist, it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. First of all, the sheep and the tiger are different in size. How could it mingle in the flock of sheep?

Secondly, tigers are carnivores, and sheep are herbivores. How could they possibly live together peacefully?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere between the two instantly cooled down.

After a few seconds, Ye You broke the silence, "Because everyone would think that way, the tiger doesn't think it's in danger. But if you walk by the river often, you're bound to get your shoes wet. There will always be omissions."

After speaking, Ye You left the interrogation room, leaving only Li Chenqiu sitting inside.

"Hoo~" Li Chenqiu sighed deeply, slowly leaning his head back, his brow full of fatigue.

He didn't expect the other party to see through the truth with forty-three unimportant questions, and even completely avoid the traps he had set, narrating the entire event's context in a complete manner through brain-based reasoning.

If there wasn't the variable of the Mirror Man, Li Chenqiu was confident that he could retreat unscathed, but there are no 'ifs' in the world.

"There really are a lot of smart people, making things so troublesome," Li Chenqiu thought to himself.

He didn't think that the An Tong Si could find his flaws, but he was worried that the An Tong Si would launch an investigation into Li Ji and Li Qingxia.

This was also the only thing Li Chenqiu was worried about now.

...

...

Outside the interrogation room, He Lu and Zheng Kang stood silently on both sides of the corridor.

Click~

Ye You pushed open the door and walked out of the interrogation room. Hearing the movement, the two immediately looked up at Ye You.

"Is what I wrote fairly reasonable? Do you have anything to add?" Ye You raised her hand to signal the two.

Zheng Kang didn't speak, but looked at He Lu, who had a gloomy expression, beside him.

He Lu straightened his body and shook his head, "What you wrote is logical, and there's nothing inappropriate, but right now these are all your guesses, and there's no key evidence."

Zheng Kang added, "Li Chenqiu's ability level is still being evaluated, but it's likely to be A, and he's also from Zhai Xing. His status means we can't detain him for too long."

Ye You didn't refute the two, but changed the subject and asked them, "If I said there was an 80% chance he was Disaster Water, would you believe me?"

The two looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, Zheng Kang replied, "You're the commander-in-chief. We'll listen to you within the rules."

"Good!" Ye You touched her chin, her gaze looking at Li Chenqiu sitting in the interrogation room through the one-way glass, "Don't focus the investigation on North Huang Mountain. Investigate in another direction."

"Another direction?" He Lu frowned in confusion, "North Huang Mountain is where Disaster Water appears. We're not investigating it anymore?"

"I remember Li Chenqiu told you that he had broken through to the Second Restriction, right!" Ye You turned her head and asked.

He Lu answered somewhat inexplicably, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"He was still at the First Restriction when he tested his abilities at the Special Abilities Division last time, but why did he immediately break through to the Second Restriction when he went to North Huang Mountain?" Ye You paused, and continued:

"There's only one possibility: in order to change his genes and avoid DNA verification. To be able to grasp the timing of his breakthrough so precisely, how meticulous a mind would that require!

Such a Resurgent wouldn't leave his traces on North Huang Mountain. Searching would be a waste of time and fruitless."

"Change genes?" Zheng Kang's pupils trembled. After thinking for a while, he looked up and asked, "What's the other direction?"

Ye You's eyes were deep, and she smiled, "Two years ago, on the Lujiang Bridge, a Resurgent named Chen Xiu had his brow pierced by an ability used by a man named Gong Qi, and fell into the river.

Two years later, Disaster Water appeared out of nowhere, killing those related to the incident that year as if seeking revenge. From this, it's not difficult to see that Disaster Water has a close relationship with Chen Xiu's family."

As she spoke, Ye You took out her phone from her pocket and played a section of audio in front of the two:

"Since the surveillance video was exposed, netizens online have started a storm of criticism against Gong Qi... Is it possible that Xu Yue is still alive... Your family can be reunited."

Beep

The audio ended.

Ye You put her phone in her pocket, her eyes scanning the two, "This is Disaster Water's conversation with someone at the time. Did you find anything after listening?"

He Lu pondered for a moment, then looked up and said, "Disaster Water seems to care a lot about this woman Xu Yue. Could there be some kind of relationship between them?"

"Have you noticed that this Disaster Water didn't ask about Chen Xiu at all? He clearly has a close relationship with Xu Yue's family, so why does he only focus on the suspicious points about Xu Yue and doesn't even mention Chen Xiu?"

As soon as these words came out, He Lu and Zheng Kang widened their eyes, as if they had thought of something.

Seeing that the two didn't speak, Ye You continued, "There's only one possibility: he knows a lot about Chen Xiu's death, but the Special Abilities Division didn't disclose the specific situation on the bridge two years ago. How did Disaster Water know?

Because he was on the bridge. To be precise, he was Chen Xiu, whose brow was pierced."

The scene was silent and quiet.

"This... how is that possible? Chen Xiu's brow was pierced at the time, how... could he still be alive?!" Zheng Kang retorted stutteringly.

"It's because all of you think that way that Disaster Water is unscrupulous," Ye You responded calmly, obviously she had anticipated the two's reaction.

After all, she was also shocked when she first deduced this answer, but thinking that Disaster Water could even achieve things like elementalizing his body, it seemed a little possible that he could survive having his brow pierced.

He Lu suppressed the shock in his heart, and tried his best to say calmly, "So the direction of investigation you're talking about is Chen Xiu?"

"Yes, you go investigate a series of things related to Chen Xiu."

"Xiao Ye, have you thought about it? All your inferences now are castles in the air, based on the premise that Li Chenqiu is Disaster Water, but whether he is or not is still unknown, right?"

"That's an order."

...

...

In a dim and dilapidated rented house, Qi Mingyue lay wearily on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

"Are sleeping pills not working anymore?" A bitter smile appeared on Qi Mingyue's face.

Clang~

The medicine bottle placed on the table was knocked to the ground by the morning breeze, and the phone alarm also rang at this moment.

Ring ring ring... Ring ring ring...

Qi Mingyue wearily pulled open the quilt, revealing his upper body covered in bandages.

Just as Qi Mingyue was about to wash up, a knock on the door came.

Knock knock knock...
