Chapter 385 - 208: Deep Blue Star_2
Everyone entered room 15, where Horse Soul held a jewelry box with a necklace inside, the pendant of which was a blue gemstone.
Facing Maya’s confusion, Shana explained, "The female celebrity is called Ding Er, and the man in the master bedroom is called Ding Yi. Ding Yi is a tycoon, and Ding Er is his daughter. Although Ding Er is a celebrity, she’s not very prominent. Their talent agency and the security company Hailisten are all owned by Ding Yi. They are here to attend the commencement ceremony for a TV drama held at the hotel on the first floor."
Maya looked at Lin Wu, who didn’t have a smug expression but rather nodded kindly to Maya. Maya turned to speak briefly with Peanut, then suddenly swung around. Lin Wu, caught in the middle of a boastful gesture, froze, offering Maya an awkward smile.
Juvenile Ghost! Maya checked the time and whispered a consultation with Shana before announcing, "Everyone else head to entrance number 2 to continue the search, Lin Wu and Shana will go to complete the task."
Maya handed the gemstone necklace to Lin Wu, who smoothly removed the gemstone from the necklace. Everyone was perplexed, but Lin Wu explained, "The gemstone we need to hand in is not the one on this necklace. I’ve fought Dawn for too long and have figured out his schemes. Believe it or not, if I submit the necklace, we won’t be able to complete the task."
The others were skeptical, all chiming in, "Dawn wouldn’t do something so low."
Lin Wu ignored them and raised an eyebrow, "The Star of the Deep Sea? Isn’t what we’re actually looking for the Deep Blue Star?"
Everyone checked their mission: Find the Deep Blue Star. They each inspected the gemstone, which was named Star of the Deep Sea in the item system, clearly not the gemstone they were searching for. This revelation stunned those players who hadn’t previously been outsmarted by Dawn; they really hadn’t expected him to stoop to such shameless tricks.
Peanut couldn’t help but ask, "Lin Wu, are you really at 95%?"
Without seizing the opportunity to brag, Lin Wu modestly replied, "This has nothing to do with intelligence. From childhood to adulthood, I’ve clashed with Dawn no less than a hundred times. I understand exactly what tricks he has up his sleeve." If Lin Wu bragged at this moment, it might make the two genuine 5%ers uncomfortable. It was only a possibility, though, as not everyone can be expected to be magnanimous.
