Chapter 204: Chapter 158 Magic: Disappear Anywhere_2

Jiang Shu turned his head, and Du Yuyi had already pressed her upper body against the table, her head tilted and resting on her left arm, her eyes as hazy as if she were drunk.

Her other hand was slightly raised, gently swaying, as if she were waving goodbye.

...

Was this woman doing this on purpose? Is this kind of bad taste only something an old woman would have?

Jiang Shu was internally ranting about it.

"Du Yuyi, whose side are you really on, Clo or someone else?" After his rant, Jiang Shu seriously asked Du Yuyi, his gaze tightly fixed on her, trying to discern something from her increasingly blurred eyes.

"Me? I’m neutral," Du Yuyi let her right hand fall, eyes focused on the red nail polish, "As long as there’s Black Silver, anyone can buy answers from me."

"You need Black Silver to check daily if anything has escaped from the Deformed Area, right?" Piecing together her previous statements, Jiang Shu quickly realized the deeper purpose of Du Yuyi needing Black Silver, and he asked directly, his face showing noticeable change for the first time, "What exactly is in there? Other Mutants?"

Suddenly, he remembered something Clo had once said, so he took a step back and continued to ask, "Could you also be a Mutant? A special kind of Mutant?"

"Uh..." Du Yuyi was suddenly a bit helpless, amused by Jiang Shu’s guess, "A Mutant? How could I be? As for other things, that’s my own business. Also..."

She stopped talking, only looking at Jiang Shu with eyes that seemed to speak.

"Fine, I’m leaving, goodbye." Jiang Shu understood her hint and thus turned and left the room.

As he walked away, the room’s door slowly closed.

Walking downstairs, Jiang Shu opened his umbrella, observing the heavy rain that was thick as a blanket pouring down, and he quickly walked onto the street.

This trip had provided many answers, but it had also brought even more questions.

The next full day, he would need to prepare the Magic he was scheduled to perform on the variety show tomorrow.

Sister Mei had already arranged everything for him — the venue, the prop setups, the angles of the audience seats, and so on; now he just needed to get his props in order, then head to the stage for the rehearsal.

He hailed a taxi, heading in the direction of the police station.

As for using Kirie’s working hours, he had already mastered that.

Hmm, Kirie is so cute, she definitely won’t mind.

Monday.

On the eve of recording "Bob’s Talk Show."

"Are you very nervous?" Jiang Shu asked Wolf casually.

Wolf picked up the ceramic cup from the table, shaking his head, "How could I be? I’ve been through all sorts of situations."

"Then could you stop your hand from shaking?" Jiang Shu continued, reaching out to hold the ceramic cup in Wolf’s hand, which belonged to the TV station and couldn’t be casually broken.

However, he found himself shaking along with the cup.

Ding: Resonance with the ceramic.

"..." Jiang Shu glanced at the barrage, a familiar feeling.

"Let’s talk about something that will relax you. What can we talk about?" Jiang Shu checked the time, "There’s still half an hour before we go on stage."

"Let’s talk about the Deception Group; the police station has found some new clues." Wolf immediately put down his cup, invigorated.

"Can we talk about something else? No work talk on non-working days," Jiang Shu pulled his chair a bit further from Wolf.

"Isn’t today Monday?" Wolf, confused by the remark.

"The final right of interpretation for non-working days is mine," Jiang Shu turned his head, speaking deliberately, then turned back.

Wolf nodded, indicating he understood, then as if talking to himself, said, "The Deception Group has a person who’s still behind the scenes, the boss of the fox."

Jiang Shu: "?"

He turned his head, like a fish caught on a hook.

Wolf showed a greasy smile of the Sea King, as if he held everything in his hands.

A: Where is the grease? I just like you that’s why I’m like this.

B: You’re so indifferent to someone who likes you and pays attention to you.

C: I’m going for an infusion, what infusion? Missing you tonight.

Before Ding could continue spamming the screen, Jiang Shu turned it off first.

"Who?" Jiang Shu looked at Wolf, clearly his brief statement had sparked Jiang Shu’s interest in the conversation.

"I don’t know, I only know he’s known as ’Smiley Face’." Wolf continued, "His mask is probably a smiley face."

"Did Fang Yue tell you that?" Jiang Shu asked again, repeating Wolf’s words, "’Smiley Face,’ huh? Sounds pretty formidable."

His mind immediately pictured the innocuous smiling face of a teacher, then it morphed into the sinister smile from V for Vendetta.

"Nothing else is clear; he found out about this by accident. Fox was contacting a person labeled ’Smiley Face.’ Besides the Fox, other members of the Deception Group don’t know much about ’Smiley Face’; they just know there is such a person, but have never seen him," Wolf said a lot, but his words lacked substantive content.

"I see." Jiang Shu nodded, looking unconcerned, as these bits of information were insufficient for any sort of judgment.

It just made an already complex issue even more complicated.

"Fang Yue also said that the members of the Deception Group don’t know each other, only vaguely aware of each other’s specialties," Wolf blurted it all out, "Naturally, the Fox specializes in hypnosis, Devil Wind in invention, Mu Jin excels in disguise, and Ancient Snake is very likely actually a surgeon."
