After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain
Chapter 218: Xu Wei Is Li Mu

After the system finished speaking and the camera moved away, Yu Li released a wisp of black mist.

The black mist spread upward, bit by bit seeping into the man’s brain.

“Rong Fan, from now on you must answer all questions truthfully, understand?”

The unconscious man’s lips suddenly moved, and he murmured in a low voice, “Understood…”

Yu Li narrowed her eyes slowly, and the first question she asked was:

“Have you seen Xu Wei?”

Yu Li had always found this player Rong Fan strange.

She had heard from Bo Jingmo before that Rong Fan liked her, so she deliberately dropped hints to make him notice her identity—but even after knowing who Xu Wei really was, he still pretended not to know.

Now it could be confirmed: he had fallen for Xu Wei as a player, not because of her persona.

She could even see many complex emotions in Rong Fan’s eyes.

This was definitely not just a simple case of love at first sight.

Yu Li rarely found herself intrigued—this was clearly a face she had never used before, so had Rong Fan seen it in the past and mistaken her for someone else?

But after asking Mu Chengsi, his answer had also been no.

Very soon, Rong Fan shook his head and slowly spoke:

“I haven’t seen Xu Wei…”

“Then do you like Xu Wei?”

“I don’t like Xu Wei either.”

“Then why did you let her go on purpose?”

Hearing this question, the man paused, his mouth opening and closing for a long time.

After quite a while, he finally spoke slowly:

“Because… Xu Wei is Li Mu.”

Hearing those two words, Yu Li froze.

Li Mu—?

Who is that?

……

“Beep—beep.”

Hearing the call hang up, Jiang Xi was momentarily stunned. She looked at the screen, hesitating whether to call back again, but then received a message from Rong Fan.

【Rong Fan: Something came up, had to make a house call. Can’t take your call.】

A house call? At this hour?

That was bulls**t.

Jiang Xi felt something was wrong. She glanced at the bulletin board, took a photo of it with her phone, and quickly headed for the elevator. But as she pressed the button for the fourth floor, she hesitated again.

Xu Wei was also on the fourth floor…

After some thought, she messaged Chen Zhixia, asking if he was home. After receiving a positive reply, she pressed the button for the second floor instead.

As the elevator slowly ascended, Jiang Xi clutched the list in her hand, looking a bit tense.

“Ding-dong—”

The elevator doors opened, and Chen Zhixia was already waiting at the entrance.

Jiang Xi quickly pulled him to the stairwell to avoid being seen by Chen Zhixia’s parents.

“Have you seen Rong Fan? I can’t reach him.”

“Rong Fan?” Chen Zhixia was confused by the question. “Didn’t he go to Xu Wei’s for dinner?”

Jiang Xi showed him her phone: “He sent me a message saying he went out for a house call.”

“How is that possible?” Chen Zhixia said as he pulled out his own phone. But when he saw the same message on his own screen, his expression shifted slightly.

Jiang Xi stopped him from calling, her tone heavy: “Don’t call. There’s something more serious going on.”

She pulled out the list and the photo album.

“The writing on the notice board—it’s exactly the same as Xu Wei’s handwriting.”

Chen Zhixia was shocked. “So Xu Wei knows the truth? Are we going to question her?”

But Jiang Xi shook her head. “No, we can’t tell her. On the contrary, she might be the biggest ghost in this instance—God of Light.”

“She’s the God of Light?” Chen Zhixia blurted out before he could stop himself. Realizing it, he bent forward and frowned. “How can you be sure?”

“Because the handwriting on it is from two people.”

She pointed to the writing in the photo, her tone serious: “Xu Wei’s handwriting matches the lower part that describes the God of Light exactly. So the upper part about the God of Peace must’ve been written by someone else.”

And judging by the diary’s description, these two gods probably weren’t here to help them.

Jiang Xi looked down at the list in her hands. “Only Zhang Jialin and Mu Shichen’s handwriting is still missing.”

One of them was dead, so they couldn’t get it.

The other had gone mad—getting him to write neatly was harder than climbing to heaven.

“So I’m going to the sixth floor rooms to look for samples of their handwriting again.”

Things happened too suddenly last night, and she had forgotten those two people. Plus, she had subconsciously assumed that dead NPCs were no longer useful.

But now, the God of Peace might be one of them.

The God of Light was already a scam—so what was the God of Peace supposed to be?

Countless questions tangled in her heart. Jiang Xi looked up and asked, “By the way, did you guys check the single-floor section?”

“Don’t even mention it. The door was locked. We couldn’t get in,” Chen Zhixia said, rubbing his hair in frustration. “Didn’t see anything. Then Rong Fan got called away by Xu Wei. He originally said he was taking the elevator to go check the single-floor section.”

Jiang Xi’s movement paused. “What about Bo Jingmo? He didn’t go back?”

Now that she thought about it, Bo Jingmo was Xu Wei’s husband. He’d stayed by the BOSS’s side for so many days without a scratch.

Thinking of the roles Bo Jingmo often got in the past, she frowned slightly, a bad feeling rising in her chest.

No way…

Just as she had that thought, footsteps suddenly came from the nearby stairwell.

The main door opened, and a tall man’s figure appeared in the stairwell.

The two curled up at the entrance: “……”

That timing was way too perfect.

Jiang Xi raised a hand and tried to greet him tentatively: “Hi…?”

The man looked down at them, skipping any small talk. He got straight to the point: “Xu Wei is the biggest BOSS. She’s the one who turned those people into monsters.”

Jiang Xi froze—she hadn’t expected Bo Jingmo to drop such a bomb out of nowhere.

“You know too?”

“Yeah. She’s already made her move on Rong Fan. She figured out what we’re investigating,” Bo Jingmo said as he looked down and adjusted his sleeve, his tone calm. “When I went back later, I happened to see it happen. Then I snuck back out while she didn’t notice.”

【…He’s just making things up. I’m quietly listening to his story.】

【Unbelievable. Just saw unconscious Rong Fan over there, and now here are two more about to be deceived.】

【What’s Bo Jingmo up to? Why is he telling them Xu Wei is the BOSS? Isn’t he with Xu Wei?】

【Easy. He’s trying to earn their trust. Jiang Xi’s already onto Xu Wei. He can’t deny it anymore. Better to confess early and gain trust.】

【Wow, this couple’s division of labor is crystal clear… one handles Rong Fan, the other handles Jiang Xi and crew.】

【But is Bo Jingmo even allowed to make a move? What about the Peace Rule?】

【No, the Peace Rule should still be strictly enforced. I suddenly remember—the system told everyone at the start to maintain the Peace Rule, which means killing is absolutely forbidden. But the current plot is going off the rails.】

【Someone’s manipulating the players into killing, feeding them the illusion that killing monsters is fine, so they’ll break the Peace Rule themselves.】

【And that someone… is probably Xu Wei.】
