Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

[Fireworks: Sigh~~ The essence of the world is a repeater. I'm going to apply for copyright right now!]

[Star: Then, when your rights are infringed, will the company help you punish Silver Wolf and get justice?]

Silver Wolf: LOL~

[Fireworks: That's definitely not possible... but I can stand on the moral high ground and point fingers, while also playing the victim to generate hype and rake in the traffic.]

[March 7th: Uh...you two actually won?]

The stars and the clouds gazed at each other.

After discarding those cheesy remarks from Silver Wolf that were completely unimportant—which might be important to Silver Wolf, but were not—they understood that Silver Wolf was clearly indicating to them that with the existing clues, they could uncover the true identity of the murderer!

They even know each other!

Since that's the case, we'll have to put our brains to work.

Tingyun said, "I do have a vague feeling that all the clues point to the same person... What impressed me most was the conversation in the last surveillance video."

After a moment's thought, Xing began to list the suspicious points one by one: "The murderer originally did not intend to kill Scott."

Tingyun frowned slightly: "This matter is indeed intriguing, but it shouldn't be the clue we're looking for."

Xing added, "The culprit ordered the Dawn Squad to kill many people."

Silver Wolf shrugged: "Let's talk about something we don't know!"

Xing and the two exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing slightly: "The murderer is a spy who infiltrated the Strategic Investment Department."

"That's right. This means that the mastermind behind this should have an official identity as a 'Strategic Investment Department' within the Two Phases Paradise." Tingyun nodded in agreement.

She rested her hand on her chin and pointed out a point of doubt: "Another piece of information that I'm quite concerned about is probably what Miss Silver Wolf discovered—"

"Scholar Jiu Miao sent several secret letters to Zhenzhu's office channel before her death."

Silver Wolf nodded: "That's right, it's indeed a chilling thing to think about. Have you figured out why?"

Xing casually remarked, "Zhenzhu is directing and acting all by herself."

This idea is really...

Tingyun wasn't sure if she was being sincere, so he could only offer an awkward yet polite smile: "Ms. Zhenzhu really has no motive for doing this. If she orchestrated all of this herself, wouldn't hiring a Star Core Hunter to investigate her be just asking for trouble?"

Xing then dropped another shocking statement: "Zhenzhu is afraid the murderer will silence her!"

【pearl:……? 】

[Yao Guang: This is truly... a very innovative way of thinking. Why couldn't I come up with this option?]

[March 7th: I've been wanting to say this since just now. You did this on purpose, didn't you, Xing? Is this an answer a human could come up with?]

[Silver Wolf: You're not trying to make me so angry that you'll just give me the questions, are you?]

[Star: Hehe~]

The person involved, Silver Wolf, was utterly speechless. She said insincerely, "So you're the mastermind behind the scenes who can silence one of the Stone Heart Ten at any time? That makes too much sense... No way! Use your brain!"

Reluctantly, Xing reluctantly abandoned her antics and gave the plausible answer: "The murderer can intercept the letters at any time."

Xing closed her eyes and pondered the information: "Those secret letters were never sent to Zhenzhu, but to another official from the Strategic Investment Department on the office intercom."

"The official would read every letter sent to Zhenzhu before delivering it to her and decide whether to hand it over to her."

She suddenly opened her eyes, her bright golden eyes sparkling with life.

"This official is—"

[Star: The old man at the gatehouse near Zhenzhu's house!]

[March 7th: Cough cough cough!!! I really am...]

[Long Night Moon: I give up.]

[March 7th: Yes!]

[Su Chang: Wait, why are you pointing at me? It's not me!]

[Bai Lu: Hmm? She wasn't pointing at you, it's just camera movement. She was referring to...]

[Zhenzhu: It really was you?]

Xing raised her finger with a confident smile.

Just as Silver Wolf had predicted, the mastermind behind the scenes arrived before them in a matter of seconds, within the time it took to say a few words, with a speed that matched her own thinking!

Tingyun turned around abruptly. Silver Wolf, arms crossed, was completely taken aback by the other's eagerness and turned his head away in a daze.

Xing's eyes were filled with an expression of unsurprised surprise as she calmly stated the other person's name: "CEO's secretary, Ms. Meiya."

[Star: Hahaha, finally it's my turn to show off!]

[Fireworks: Great! The treacherous minister has already shown himself!]

[March 7th: By the way, Ms. Zhenzhu only has one secretary? I thought someone as high-ranking as her would have a huge team of secretaries, right? If you had told me earlier, I would have guessed it too!]

Dressed in a sharp business suit, Meiya sighed softly, "Sigh... so it was a trap. I didn't expect to fall for it in the end."

But she had no choice but to accept the offer.

This outcome was perhaps already predetermined when she carelessly let the backup video slip through her fingers.

Silver Wolf put his hands on his hips and chuckled, "Looks like you've reached the end of your rope, even resorting to murder to silence witnesses yourself."

Mei Ya sighed, "There's nothing we can do; the client's budget is limited."

Ting Yun demanded sharply, "The 'master' you're referring to is the 'Market Development Department,' isn't it?"

"Don't try to trick me. This isn't the time for that." Mei Ya's eyes were fierce. "Now is the time for a fight to the death."

She directed the employees behind her.

"Go! Kill them!"

[Fireworks: Hahaha... Who did you kill? Come on, say it again. It's been a long time since I've heard someone tell a joke so seriously.]

[Star: Good, Meiya has guts, I admire you!]

[March 7th: Even Scott knows that in a duel, you have to pick on the weak... no, you have to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, using your preferred mech to fight my weaker sword. And she actually thinks...]

[Silver Wolf: You think you can kill me, even the one who gets the cartridge back? Plus Xing and a fox spirit from a celestial boat with destructive power? How strict are her family's KPIs to allow her to have such unrealistic ambitions? If you didn't tell me, I'd think she was an imposter of the Great Lord of Annihilation.]

[Qingque: This is the harm of work! Work makes people repulsive, work makes people dizzy, and work can even shorten one's lifespan!]

Scott: Tsk... To be outmaneuvered by a guy like that, how embarrassing. Sigh... Having plenty of resources is great, even if you're all looks and no brains, you can still be incredibly powerful. But... hahaha, you idiot, now we don't have to meet again in hell. Go have fun by yourself!

[Zhenzhu: Meiya, do you have anything else to say?]
