Chapter 61: Suspicion
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mu Hui led Tang Yu into the car. They made a trip to the supermarket to buy a bunch of daily necessities for Tang Yu before returning to the Fu residence.
In the room, Mu Hui took the opportunity to ask Tang Yu when Fu Siye was leaving.
“Xiao Yu, did you offend someone? Why are those people chasing after you?”
Tang Yu shook her head. She replied, “I’m not sure either. Actually, when I first came to this world, I saw that bounty game. As I could answer all the questions in the game, I decided to participate in it. After receiving the bounty, all those people have been chasing after me.”
Mu Hui was deep in thought. Xiao Yu had just arrived, so who could she make enemies with? It seemed that those people were just motivated by money.
“You should be more careful in the future. You can’t show off your money anymore.”
Tang Yu immediately shook her head. She looked fearful.
“It’s not like that. That person didn’t chase me for money, he just wanted to kill me! At that time, I told him that I had donated all my bounty, but he said that he wanted my life! Also, I heard that there was another person who had suddenly died after receiving the bounty.”
Mu Hui became suspicious after hearing that.
How could it not be for money?
She pondered and asked, “Could it be that if a person recognized Monet’s painting, he or she would be hunted down and killed?”
At that moment, the door swung open and Fu Siye walked in with some cold medicine. Mu Hui could only suppress the doubt in her heart and say nothing more.
Fu Siye stuffed the steaming medicine into Mu Hui’s hand. After watching her drink it, he suddenly asked, “Who’s Monet?”.
“Who’s Monet?”
Mu Hui almost spat out the medicine in her mouth. She was secretly surprised.
No way! It was one thing if most people did not know Monet, but even someone as knowledgeable and elite as him did not know who Monet was?
Monet was a world-famous painter.
This was definitely not right.
She raised her head without batting an eyelid and asked Fu Siye in return, “What did you say? Did you hear wrongly?”
Fu Siye was stunned for a moment. He glanced at Tang Yu and did not say anything else. He did not want to disturb their reunion and left after taking the cup.
Tang Yu waited for Fu Siye to leave before she looked at Mu Hui with caution.
“Sister Mu Hui, how did you get together with this Fu Siye? Isn’t he a bad person?”
Mu Hui did not know how to explain to Tang Yu, “Xiao Yu, actually, this world is no longer the world in the original novel…”
“I understand. This world is collapsing.”
Tang Yu smiled.
“You are no longer the original cannon fodder villain.”
Mu Hui smiled. However, Tang Yu was still her closest relative. She would not let anyone hurt her family.
Moreover, this matter was definitely not as simple as she had imagined.
That night, after everyone had fallen asleep, she took out her computer and searched the web.
She did not expect that she could not find any information about Monet on the internet. She could not even find the three paintings in the bounty game.
Mu Hui could not believe it. She searched for the other artists from the same era as Monet. All the various artists with different nationalities had all disappeared. She could not find anything on the internet.
Mu Hui turned off her computer and suddenly understood.
Although this world looked the same as the real world, strictly speaking, this was an independent world created from a modern novel. It was different from the real world after all.
There was no Monet here.
The few Monet paintings that appeared in this world must have been imitated by people from the real world.
It was obvious that there were already many transmigrators in this world, and the high-reward game created using these paintings was used to capture these transmigrators.
“So, my transmigration was not a coincidence?”
When she thought of this, she understood that she was just a chess piece in someone’s hands. If she wanted to stay, she could stay. If she wanted to die, she could die at any time. When she thought of this, her eyes flashed with killing intent.
She had never been a person who would just sit around and wait for death.
She walked into Fu Siye’s study quietly, took his gun, and left.
