Chapter 95: Chapter 95: The Real and Fake Mo Mo

Mo Mo on stage had no idea that Wu Mu was hiding nearby.

She was on Masked Singer because her company arranged it to promote her new album.

The plan was to stay for one episode, so she originally intended to reveal her identity on purpose and leave after being guessed correctly.

There were quite a few guests like her on the show, similar to flying guests.

Since she was going to leave after one episode anyway, she thought of playing a joke on everyone by pretending to be last episode’s Mechanical Warrior, which would also make for a better show.

But she underestimated how difficult it would be to impersonate the Mechanical Warrior.

After the panelists got over their initial confusion, they quickly figured out a way.

"You say you’re Mechanical Warrior?" Chen Jian asked her.

"Right," Mo Mo nodded.

"Then repeat the Japanese line you said last episode," Chen Jian said.

Huh?

Mo Mo was taken aback and then braced herself, "I forgot."

Yue Li couldn’t help but chuckle, "You forgot your line, then just repeat King Liang’s voice from last episode, you can’t have forgotten that."

How could Mo Mo do that!

Her mind raced, trying to figure out how to turn the situation around.

But the panelists didn’t buy her act.

They might not find who Mechanical Warrior was, but finding out who wasn’t the Mechanical Warrior was easy.

Watching Mo Mo not immediately responding, Liang Jun laughed heartily, "You’re clearly Little Mo."

Zhao Xue also greeted with a laugh, "Mo Mo, long time no see."

That was it, her act was over, she couldn’t keep it up.

However, she still had to respect the theme of the show, even if everyone already guessed her identity, she couldn’t be the one to reveal the answer.

Mo Mo continued to insist, "I am Mechanical Warrior."

Zhao Xue and the others wouldn’t believe such nonsense.

If this was the real Mechanical Warrior, how could they not remember last episode’s Japanese line, or change their voice?

Since they’d stepped forward claiming to be Mechanical Warrior yet couldn’t do these things, something seemed off, no matter how you looked at it.

Everyone was basically 70 or 80 percent sure by now that this detective was Mo Mo.

Liang Jun even stopped using the code name and called her directly, "Little Mo, didn’t you just finish participating in the singer-songwriter competition? Aren’t you going to take a break?"

Zhao Xue had heard something, "Is Mo Mo’s new album coming out, and you’re promoting it?"

Yue Li was quite curious, "So, Mo Mo, are you going to sing a new song from your album later?"

With the conversation getting to this point, it was clear she couldn’t keep up the act anymore.

Mo Mo simply smiled and nodded, "Yes, it’s a new song from my album called ’Towards the Sun.’"

Hearing the name, Cai Wanhai was curious, "Is it an inspirational song?"

Mo Mo hesitated, then shook her head, "It’s not an inspirational song, the theme might lean towards the darker and deeper side."

Huh, Mo Mo writing an inspirational song wasn’t strange, but a song with a dark and deep theme?

That was quite uncommon.

Even Liang Jun couldn’t help but be curious, "Little Mo, how did you come to write a song with this theme?"

After thinking it over, Mo Mo said, "It’s for a friend of mine, inspired by his story."

Wu Mu, standing to the side, had a slightly odd expression. The friend you’re mentioning, it couldn’t be me, right?

The others also immediately thought of Wu Mu’s name, and Chen Jian directly asked, "Is it for Wu Mu?"

Mo Mo was a bit embarrassed, but still nodded, "Yes, the content has a gray tone, but with the name ’Towards the Sun,’ I hope that Teacher Wu Mu’s life will always be sunny."

"Then let’s give the stage to Mo Mo, looking forward to your new song."

The singing segment of the show began.

The background music for the stage slowly started to play.

...

Wu Mu listened intently and discovered that the song was of incredibly high quality, almost entrancing.

Indeed, the theme of the song was just as Mo Mo had said: it veered towards a dark, gloomy tone. The majority of it was quite bleak, with only a glint of brightness at the end.

He had figured out that this was the burst of emotion triggered in Mo Mo upon their first meeting, after hearing about his tragic experiences.

Although Wu Mu felt that he was quite composed at the time, it seemed Mo Mo had fully immersed himself in the story, making the outcome exceedingly emo.

Fortunately, the touch of brightness at the end prevented the overall style from becoming too overwhelmingly somber.

After the song ended, the panel of guessers all marveled at its high quality.

Everyone had pretty much confirmed by now: this had to be Mo Mo.

After Mo Mo’s performance, it was Wu Mu’s turn.

The panel of guessers undoubtedly thought, with only one person left, this must be the Mechanical Warrior from the last episode, right?

But as everyone was thinking along these lines,

Wu Mu appeared on stage in a flurry, exclaiming, "Don’t let the detective fool you, he’s not Mo Mo at all—he’s the Mechanical Warrior!"

Ah.

Ah?

The guessers looked bewildered, obviously not quite catching up with what Wu Mu had just said.

Mo Mo on the side was even more confused.

What the hell are you talking about? I’m not Mo Mo, I’m actually the Mechanical Warrior?

Zhao Xue couldn’t help but ask, "Why do you say she isn’t Mo Mo, but the Mechanical Warrior?"

Why?

Wu Mu chuckled inwardly and turned off the voice changer, a soft female voice emerged, "Because I am Mo Mo!"

Mo Mo: "???"

Guessers: "???"

No way, what kind of trick is this!

Another Mo Mo has appeared!?

The audience below had erupted.

"How could there be another Little Mo??"

"My head is going to explode!?"

"Are we watching a music competition or a ghost story here!?"

"I really can’t tell anymore!"

Everyone in the venue was blown away, even Sun Cheng, the director who’d been psychologically prepared backstage, was taken aback—performance art is bringing the house down again!

He had suspected that Wu Mu might do something showy for the program when he received Mo Mo’s application, but he hadn’t anticipated that Wu Mu could imitate Mo Mo’s voice too.

This music competition had turned into a live ghost story!

Wu Mu marveled inwardly at flipping the scene with a single sentence—Teacher Mo Mo, you must love this kind of mischief.

Whether Mo Mo loved it or not was unclear, but the man was obviously stunned.

The guessers were even more astonished.

It was one thing to imitate King Liang in the last episode, keeping a distance through the show, but this time, they’d stepped it up: a live battle of the real against the fake Mo Mo?

Without any doubt, one of these two onstage—either the witch guest or the detective—must be the real Mo Mo and the other, the Mechanical Warrior.

So, which one is the real Mo Mo?

The guessers’ gazes shifted back and forth between the witch and the detective.

Impossible to tell, absolutely impossible to tell.

Both had undergone disguises and worn padded shoes, so there wasn’t much of a difference in height or build.

After a few seconds of silence, Zhao Xue couldn’t resist asking Wu Mu, "What evidence do you have that he’s the Mechanical Warrior? Why can’t it be you?"

With an air of seriousness, Wu Mu replied, "I have proof that he is the Mechanical Warrior—there are too many suspicious points about him!"
