Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god

Clearly, the scene of Snow Owl directly drawing her knife and charging at Fluoxetine on the overpass had left a very deep impression on Lin Yu.

Now that they were inside the [Instance], it was hard to say whether Snow Owl would change her mind when facing the Thousand-Eyed, Thousand-Threaded Demon Lord.

What's more… Snow Owl had suffered a great loss on the overpass precisely because she was too reckless.

Therefore, in order to prevent Snow Owl from dragging her down this time, Lin Yu naturally needed to find her as soon as possible and stop her.

However, after listening to Lin Yu's explanation, Li Nian stroked her chin.

“Hmm… that makes sense, but then again, I don’t think the employer and the seagull opposite are likely to actively seek out Zhu Qiansi.”

Lin Yu looked at Li Nian, looked up at the sky and said, "That wouldn't be a loss, would it?"

“Although one more person means one more helping hand, I can accept not taking them to fight Zhu Qiansi in a way.”

Li Nian was stunned, and then nodded in understanding.

“That’s true. We don’t know what’s abnormal about this place yet. It seems better not to bring them.”

“So, how should we find Zhu Qiansi now?”

Hearing this, Lin Yu said casually: "That's easy—if there's even a grain of truth in the lies that puppet told us before, then Zhu Qiansi should be quite famous in this Willow Town after living here for a while."

“We just need to ask around, and we’ll eventually find her.”

“Unless, that guy was completely lying to us, or this current ‘Willow Town’ is when Zhu Qiansi just arrived here.”

Li Nian nodded again in agreement with Lin Yu.

Li Nian was very surprised, looking at the steamed buns that were definitely produced in Willow Town and not [Props], and couldn't help but ask: “Did you buy steamed buns as soon as you came in?”

“Yeah, I was hungry… There were six in total, I ate three, and I left you three.”

“If you can't finish them, give them back to me.”

Lin Yu said matter-of-factly.

“Sister, didn’t you already eat a few crackers outside?”

Li Nian said even more shockingly.

Lin Yu sighed helplessly: “My abilities consume a lot of energy and need to be replenished with food… Are you going to eat or not?”

“Eat, eat, eat, of course, I’ll eat.”

Li Nian grabbed a steamed bun through the lotus leaf paper wrapper, took a small bite, and her eyes lit up: “Hey, it really tastes good.”

She took small bites, but the speed was not slow at all. High-frequency small bites quickly eliminated the meat bun, like a hamster gnawing on a rice cake.

Lin Yu also brought Li Nian, who was gnawing on a steamed bun, to a nearby stall selling porcelain and metal ornaments, where the boss looked very enthusiastic and kind.

“Boss, please, I want to ask, if we want to find someone to tell fortunes in our town, which way should we go?”

The boss was a young man who looked like he had just inherited the craft. Seeing two young girls approaching to ask, one of whom looked familiar, he naturally had no precautions and immediately said enthusiastically.

“Girl, it seems you don’t go out much… Speaking of fortune-telling, our Willow Town is prosperous and thriving, with many capable people and strangers, and there are many masters of magic. To say that fortune-telling is accurate, there are indeed many accurate ones. The closest one is ‘Iron Divination Hall,’ three streets south. Their divination skills have been passed down for three generations!”

Lin Yu nodded slightly.

“A little further away is also fine, boss.”

Passed down for three generations, that definitely wasn't Zhu Qiansi.

“A little further away… Hmm, if you go west and turn a corner, there’s an old street. In the middle, there’s a place called ‘White Crane Old Courtyard,’ which was originally a branch of ‘White Crane Martial Arts Hall,’ but it was abandoned after it was withdrawn fifteen years ago. Half of the courtyard wall was torn down and turned into a gathering place for Jianghu people. Several new inns have also been opened next to it, so there are many martial artists selling various wound medicines and strengthening pills. There are also many who understand magic and set up stalls there… Although it’s a mixed bag, and there are even pure swindlers who have no ability, you might also meet a hermit master!”

This place sounded like a place Zhu Qiansi would choose.

After all, as a demon, the more chaotic the place, the better she could hide.

What's more… the mixed and crowded places also made it convenient for Zhu Qiansi to plant karma threads on people and bring the karma threads out of Willow Town through these “passers-by.”

But Lin Yu still nodded calmly, picked up a pair of bronze turtle tea pets.

“How much are these turtles?”

“These things cost eighty-eight wen.”

A bit expensive, but Lin Yu didn't bargain, just looked at Li Nian.

Li Nian, while gnawing on the steamed bun, also understood what Lin Yu meant and sighed helplessly.

As a ‘Thief God,’ Li Nian knew that Lin Yu didn't have much money in her pocket just by listening to the slight rattling sound coming from Lin Yu's pocket when she walked.

And Lin Yu observed Li Nian's dress and the purse hanging on her waist, and naturally knew that she must have money.

Li Nian reached out and grabbed eighty-eight wen from her purse, spreading them out on the table in a line.

Lin Yu put away the two turtle tea pets and asked the boss again.

“Is there any more authoritative fortune-telling place you can recommend? Money or time is not a problem!”

The boss, who was already quite enthusiastic, naturally became even more eager and enthusiastic after receiving the money and issuing a receipt. He tried to cough and clear his throat, and said.

“Of course, there is—although it can’t compare to those old brands with a long history, if you ask me, the most mysterious fortune-teller in our Willow Town recently has to be the one from the ‘Apricot Grove Medical Hall’!”

Listening to the boss mention the medical hall, Lin Yu didn't know why, but she had a feeling that she had “found the right direction.”

“Oh? How is this medical hall related to fortune-telling?”

“It's the daughter of that family. I don't know why, she was originally an idiot, but after a serious illness and sleeping for three days and three nights, she suddenly became extremely intelligent and even learned fortune-telling without a teacher!”

“People say that she was touched on the head by an immortal in her dream!”

Hearing that it was a daughter, Lin Yu and Li Nian exchanged glances.

The gender was also right!

Moreover, the fact that she changed after a serious illness and sleeping for three days and three nights felt very much like she was possessed by a demon.

“May I ask what the doctor's surname is?”

“Naturally, it's Zhu!”
