Huh? Isn't This A Galgame?-Chapter 30 - 29: Top-Level Confrontation

By the flower bed in front of the teaching building, Yu Shujun and Wu Yuwei stood facing each other.

The two were very close. Yu Shujun whispered something into Wu Yuwei's ear, causing her shoulders to still tremble, though her tears had stopped.

Wen Nan rushed down the stairs, calling the system in his mind: [9527, check Wu Yuwei's strategy level.]

9527: [The stunning school beauty Wu Yuwei's strategy level, 91%.]

Good, she hasn't been swayed by Yu Xueba's bewitching words. The strategy level had stabilized, even risen slightly.

Wen Nan slowed his steps a bit, but immediately saw Yu Shujun lift his hand to wipe the tears from Wu Yuwei's cheek, then gently hug her neck, pulling her into his arms.

Seeing the two embrace affectionately, Wen Nan's anger flared up again.

He took a few steps forward to them, looking coldly at Yu Shujun, "I have something to discuss with you alone."

Wu Yuwei lifted her head from Yu Shujun's shoulder, her tear-streaked eyes bewildered as she looked at Wen Nan, then at Yu Shujun.

Yu Shujun lightly patted her back and whispered in her ear to comfort her: "It's okay, you go back to class first, I'll come find you later."

Wu Yuwei obediently nodded, gave Wen Nan a sorrowful glance, then pursed her lips and turned away without a word.

Watching Wu Yuwei's retreating figure, Wen Nan snorted coldly, "You conquer my harem better than I do?"

Yu Shujun turned to him, his face showing no emotion, "Your... harem?"

Wen Nan nodded, "Technically, you are too, but I'm straight as steel, so you're out of luck."

Thinking about it, he added: "If you're willing to give up your second in command, I could make you a Grand Intendant."

Hearing this, Yu Shujun stared blankly at Wen Nan for a moment, did not respond to his jest, and walked a few steps aside, sitting by the flower bed, asking, "What do you want to talk about?"

Wen Nan followed, squatting next to Yu Shujun, throwing an arm around his shoulder and squeezing hard,

"Bro."

"...Bro?!"

Seeing Yu Shujun somewhat resistant to the term, Wen Nan switched to another term:

"Buddy?"

"...Buddy?!"

"Little brother?"

Yu Shujun brushed Wen Nan's hand off his shoulder, "What exactly do you want to talk about?"

Wen Nan fished out a packet from his pocket, "Want one?"

Yu Shujun: ...

"Thanks, I don't eat spicy sticks."

"Who doesn't eat spicy sticks," Wen Nan said, smiling, "Afraid I've poisoned them?" He took one from the bag, put it in his mouth, swallowed it in one bite, and stuck out his tongue, "Look, no poison."

Yu Shujun felt the other's thought process might not be quite right, but as Wen Nan insisted on offering the spicy stick, refusing it seemed he wouldn't give up.

After considering, Yu Shujun finally compromised, taking one and putting it in his mouth, "Can we talk now?"

Wen Nan watched Yu Shujun's lips, confirming that he tasted the spicy stick he'd added special flavor to, then satisfactorily curled his lips.

9527: [Detected player using item—Truth Serum on strategy target, cold and sinister genius.]

9527: [Item in effect, please wait...]

9527: [Item usage failed...]

9527: [Sorry, the selected target does not meet the criteria for Truth Serum use, rendering it ineffective.]

9527: [This item usage is not counted towards the single mission Truth Serum usage count, you still retain one Truth Serum usage right, please be informed.]

Hearing the system prompt, Wen Nan raised an eyebrow lightly.

As expected from the result.

The usage range of [Truth Serum] stated: Applicable only to characters below nine stars, or players below level 10.

That means the person sitting next to him is either a character above nine stars or a player above level 10.

Either way, it does not match the background information Wen Nan had about Yu Shujun—this couldn't possibly be a character with just one and a half stars of strategy difficulty.

"You modified your character card."

Wen Nan spoke decisively, using an affirmative statement.

Yu Shujun's eyes slightly narrowed, full of vigilance as he looked at Wen Nan.

Since the topic was already broached, Wen Nan decided to strike while the iron was hot, "Who exactly are you? A player pretending to be a character, disrupting the normal game order, do you know what the consequences are if you get caught? I now have solid evidence of your cheating. If I report you to the complaint center, what do you think will happen?"

Hearing Wen Nan's words, Yu Shujun's previously calm face suddenly rippled with waves of fear, surprise, confusion, panic...

For a moment, a variety of emotions appeared on his face.

Seeing the other's expression, Wen Nan was secretly pleased.

Looks like he bet right—

How could Wen Nan know what the consequences of Yu Shujun's current behavior would be? He had asked the system what to do in such a situation, but the system only gave him unrelated jargon to muddle him.

Forget the consequences and punishments, Wen Nan wasn't even sure if the so-called "complaint center" existed.

He was bluffing, just trying to trick the person next to him.

Now, seeing Yu Shujun's reaction, Wen Nan was sure—

A player pretending to be a character was indeed punishable.

[!]

[!!!]

[Huh?]

[No way?]

[Really?]

[Is this... a player?]

[Holy crap, the streamer can even figure this out? Impressive]

[How did he find out?]

[A master is truly a master!]

[I said during that tutoring mission last time, with the two of them talking back and forth in the classroom, I couldn't understand a word]

[Exactly, last time I thought they were two cryptic people, then I thought it was a battle between two geniuses, only to realize now, this is a face-off between two top-level player pros!!!]

[No, why can a player ignore game rules and come to a newbie trial area to blow everyone else away?]

[Bro, what we're seeing now with Ye Jiu is a master Ignoring Rules coming to the newbie area to wreck everyone, nothing surprising about it]

[What rules, rules are for newbies, the masters are the rules!]

[No, one might understand Ye Jiu's actions, because in a high-level map, there are indeed hidden items that allow you to change accounts and identities, using them is like a fresh start]

[Yes, an experienced player coming to newbie areas is not surprising, but a player pretending as a character, that's just too far-fetched...]

[Exactly, that item for changing accounts states clearly that it only allows someone to restart as a newbie player, not transform into a game character]

[xdm, have a broader perspective, if the account-changing item can't do something, there may be other equipment capable of it]

[Holy crap, you're not suggesting...]

[Are you saying...]

[The Great Demon Master's Divine Staff Fragment?!]
