Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

How do you need me to cooperate with you?

"Lord Youlan Dale, at this moment, your every move is likely being secretly watched, so please do not get too close to me, lest you alert the enemy..."

Lin Wei said seriously,

"As for me, I will always pay attention to every move around me, but on the surface, I will pretend that I am unaware of anything, thus creating opportunities for those guys to take advantage."

"Then, I will send you my location coordinates at the critical moment. Then, Lord Youlan Dale will take action and capture them all in one fell swoop!"

Lin Wei said in a rather excited tone.

"…Do you know what this means?"

Yulandel asked in a rather calm tone.

"I know, but He Kun is not important."

The other party's tone was equally calm, like a warrior who was indifferent to life and death.

“I just know that this is what I have to do!”

"In that case, I respect your choice, Mr. He Kun."

Youlan Dell nodded solemnly.

"Stay safe and stay connected."

"I will."

The voice on the communicator said.

"That's good."

Youlan Dell suddenly revealed a comforting smile, and the curved arc of his eyes was filled with tenderness and blessings.

"Don't forget, you promised to give me a cat after the mission is over."

It’s a pity that the two people have different communicator models, so Lin Wei can’t see this smile.

But Lin Wei seemed to have really seen this bright smile and could not help but be speechless.

"……I will."

"Ah."

Yu Lan Dale nodded and hung up the call.

Behind her, in the opposite direction of the leisure square, Lin Wei put away the communicator with some embarrassment, touched his nose, and muttered,

"Why do I feel like a heinous liar?"

"You are too modest, Lin Weijun."

Yaezakura in the stigmata space nodded in agreement and said seriously,

"Deceiving a girl's kindness, the word 'heinous crime' seems too mild."

“…Stop teasing me.”

Lin Wei smiled helplessly and said,

"If there were any other way, I wouldn't resort to this desperate measure... After all, the pressure brought by this stupid goose is really too great!"

"So you chose to avoid her and then deceive her with sweet words?"

Yaezakura obviously didn't intend to let him go just like that.

"Deception? Perhaps. But from the perspective of destiny and He Kun, what I said before was absolutely sincere. I believe that Bishop Otto, who boasts of his extraordinary wisdom, probably thinks the same way."

Lin Wei quickly adjusted his mood and said calmly,

"Although 'Lin Wei' has been deceiving them from the beginning, my position at this moment is, after all, an enemy, not a friend. Using every possible means is only natural. As for deceiving Youlan Dell, I can only apologize."

"We're enemies now, not friends. But what about the future? When we meet again, how will our resurrected 'Mr. He Kun' explain himself to that Valkyrie?"

Yae Sakura said something that could make people break out in a cold sweat while smiling gently.

"From what I understand, that S-rank Valkyrie isn't as easy to fool as Anna."

"... Let's talk about the future later. Let's get through this difficult time first."

Lin Wei was stunned by Yaezakura's deliberate reminder, and then waved his hand and said,

"Besides, how can you just meet the S-rank Valkyrie of Destiny?"

"After this is over, I'm going to move to another place. I've already decided to settle down in North Africa, right at the doorstep of their World Serpents headquarters!"

Lin Wei snorted and sneered,

"I want to see if Gray Snake dares to provoke a dispute between me and Destiny! If he really dares, I will dig three feet into the ground and expose the World Serpent's headquarters to Otto!"

"As long as the World Serpent can understand my threat and avoid causing trouble for me, it will be difficult for me to have any further contact with Destiny... As for what happens after the Great Collapse, by then, with a formidable enemy at hand, there will be ample opportunities to clear up misunderstandings and mend relations. After all, it was Otto who tampered with my memory first, and I was simply taking advantage of their tactic and going with the flow."

"He does it on the first day, I do it on the fifteenth. If you want to blame someone, blame Master Otto!"

Lin Wei said seriously,

"Strictly speaking, I'm the victim. It's Youlan Dell who should apologize to me!"

Lin Wei's thinking was extremely clear. Not only had he found a way to deal with the aftermath, he even cleared the blame completely with just a few words. This series of actions left Yaezakura speechless again.

However, she had long been accustomed to this and did not really have any negative views towards Lin Wei because of it.

Because she knew that if she had a choice, Lin Wei would prefer the ordinary life of riding the Ferris wheel, watching cherry blossoms, and playing in the water with her rather than the days like now, where she was trying every possible means to kill someone.

Therefore, she became deeply dissatisfied with the World Snake and Destiny for forcing Lin Wei to this point.

"It's almost over, isn't it?"

Yaezakura sighed. Like Lin Wei, she also disliked this kind of life.

Just watching Lin Wei's actions, she felt exhausted; it was hard for her to imagine how exhausted Lin Wei, who was facing all of this, must be inside behind her calm appearance.

"Well, it's almost over. All the preparations have been completed. From now on, until the final operation begins, Orlandel and Otto will not meet together again."

Lin Wei nodded, shook the communicator, and said with a smile,

"With this breakthrough, as long as we disrupt Yulan Dell's judgment at the right time, we can gain enough time to successfully put aside the troublesome Yulan Dell and defeat Otto alone!"

Lin Wei couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

After all the extreme calculations and games along the way, Lin Wei finally had some real grasp of his fantastic plan.

"I really want to thank Otto for his proactive cooperation..."

Lin Wei couldn't help but laugh, and the laughter was quite light-hearted and happy.

"If he hadn't had an active enough brain to understand my many hints, how could he have fallen into this trap on his own initiative? Haha...Facts have proven that sometimes, smart people are much easier to deceive than stupid people."

Thanks to Lin Wei's efforts to hide his identity all the time, this almost one-way transparent situation was achieved at this time, giving him the opportunity to become a secret manipulator with the most information advantages.

"...This was also one of the gains from that university, right?"

Yaezakura was speechless for a moment. She also knew that if it weren't for this incident, Youlan Dell would almost take the initiative to contact Lin Wei.

"Haha, yes. Otto certainly understood this opportunity."

Lin Wei stared into the distance with lifeless eyes and said calmly,

"Stepping outside my own perspective, the truth as Otto sees it is this: a lone intelligence officer is the culprit responsible for causing such a huge loss to the World Serpent. The World Serpent will surely be enraged and retaliate against him. This is when his hidden special force—Yulan Dell—will come in handy!"

"In this way, the person Youlan Dell will prioritize cooperating with is 'He Kun'—that is, me; and no longer Otto."

"This is the opportunity I've been searching for, but Otto has handed it to me, and I just need to take advantage of it..."

Having said that, Lin Wei retracted his gaze, shrugged his shoulders as if he was relaxed, and said lightly,

"You see, it's just that simple, not that complicated."

"..."

Yaesakura, the only listener, was speechless again.

Chapter 132: Outline

Lin Wei's words seemed very simple:

As long as you understand each opponent's personality, thinking pattern, and interests; then, in their respective plans and actions, accurately grasp every exploitable loophole and approach from a just right angle.

Then, like an invisible thread, these "opportunities" that ordinary people would not even realize but could be fully utilized by Lin Wei were all connected together like threading a needle.

Just like that, when no one noticed, when both Otto and the Jackal were feeling frustrated by their previous collisions and failures, Lin Wei had silently taken control of the entire situation!

"Give a general outline."

Yaezakura read a lot, and she immediately thought of this most appropriate idiom.

By grabbing the core rope, you can control the entire fishing net; by grabbing the collar of a piece of clothing, you can strangle the clothes, or even the person wrapped in the clothes.

Yaezakura never thought that an allusion from ancient books could be performed so appropriately in reality.

But is it really because it is so simple that it can achieve all this?

Yaezakura sighed half in admiration and half in regret. The answer was of course no.

"I hope everything goes as planned and this can all end soon..."

She thought silently in her heart.

She sighed because just watching Lin Wei do these things made her feel very tired, and she didn't want such days to continue for too long;

Admiration comes from a small respect for Lin Wei who can create possibilities out of the impossible.

"Back then, when Lin Weijun wanted to get me, he seemed to have gone to great lengths to do so..."

Yaezakura thought quietly.

Although she already knew all the causes and consequences and gladly accepted the changed future; but because of this, she felt even more incredible towards Lin Wei, who had created that miracle——

If Lin Wei had taken even one wrong step, the ending of this story would definitely not be what it is now.

That was a miracle created by him who was once confused, weak and unable to move.

Things are different now. Lin Wei no longer has only one choice. He has the power to protect himself, he has himself, he has the Key of God, and he has everything he needs to gain a foothold in this world.

Lin Wei now has many options.

For example, in the current dilemma, Lin Wei clearly has many simpler solutions. He can avoid so much trouble and cut the Gordian knot early and then leave.

However, for the sake of Anna Shaniat, whom he met by chance but still trusted and relied on him, he resolutely chose to face the challenge and wanted to find the most perfect solution to pass the level.

"He is indeed a greedy man..."

Yaezakura felt like she was neither angry nor happy; all kinds of emotions that she couldn't express to others were tangled in her heart, turning around and around, and finally turned into a somewhat resentful sigh.

"I really owe you..."

There's nothing I can do about it. Who made me go through this?

"Sakura, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing that Yaezakura's mood seemed a little erratic, Lin Wei asked curiously,

"Could it be that... you don't like me deceiving Youlan Dell?"

No, I just don't like the way you mess with other girls!

Yaezakura thought indignantly,

"How could that be? Lin Weijun must have no other options, so he resorted to this desperate measure, right?"

Yae Sakura said with a smile in her sweet voice,

"Perhaps you're still regretting that you couldn't fulfill your promise to give her a cat?"

"Uh……"

Even if Lin Wei was slow-witted, he should have realized at this moment that Yaezakura was really unhappy.

Although he still didn't understand how he had offended Yaezakura, this didn't stop Lin Wei from pretending to be calm and smiling, explaining calmly,

"What kind of agreement is that? The person she's familiar with is 'He Kun,' not me, 'Lin Wei.' How can it be called an 'agreement' when it's based on lies from the beginning? Take us as an example: Ying, from the first time we met until now, have I ever told you a lie? Let alone an 'agreement'?"

"..."

Yaezakura was momentarily frustrated, and thought unwillingly: I lost again...
