"Hey, Xiba, wake up."

In Liang Ye's room, he was squatting on a chair, eating instant noodles and sipping an iced Americano.
On another chair in the room, Li Hua was flipping through information with his legs crossed.
Lin Yu was a little surprised when he saw the well-dressed Liang Ye.
"Captain, have you not slept all night?"
Liang Ye put down the seafood fish noodles in his hand: "That's not necessary."
Li Hua raised his eyes and said, "He is Korean and does not need to sleep... Are you rested and ready to start the investigation?"
Lin Yu nodded slightly: "Yes, I am going to ask questions. If it is convenient for you two, please follow..."
"After all, if it's just me and Forpolo, the weight might not be enough."
Liang Yechen agreed: "What you said makes sense, these Xiba are just a bunch of people's food."
"Don't worry, Li Hua and I will support you. We can play bad guy for you if necessary!"
Li Hua put out the tablet in his hand: "I'm not very good at putting pressure on people, but I will try my best."
"You two are welcome," Lin Yu said, and then there was a hint of hesitation on his face, "But there is something a little strange..."
Liangye saw Lin Yu's hesitation, and then said: "Xiba, just say it!"
"I had a very weird dream last night," Lin Yu said as if he had made up his mind. "In the dream, there was a guy who called himself a 'consultant' and claimed to be an accomplice in the murder of Carrot. He wanted to play cards with me and lose a round. You can ask questions to the other person.”
"I played a few games with him, and he told me that the missing prop and the murderer who killed Carrot were not the same person. The purpose of the person who stole the prop was to use it in a certain replica world."
Lin Yu said thoughtfully, his tone sounding a little unconfident.
"I always felt like this wasn't just a dream caused by my stress... it was too real."
After he finished speaking, before Liang Ye could react, Li Hua's expression changed drastically.
"A way to enter a dream or weave a dream...a nightmare spell from the secret world."
"You are definitely a troublesome character if you can drag you into a dream right under our noses."
Li Hua said coldly, and Liang Ye also reacted.
"Xihachi, is this done with [summons] or [scrolls]? If it is the former, we will be in big trouble!"
The reaction of the two 'Order' masters was more intense than Lin Yu imagined.
What surprised Lin Yu was...
Not only these two people, but also Fu Luo reacted.
"Brother, did you just say that that person calls himself a 'consultant'?"
Seeing Fu Luo's confused look, Lin Yu was also surprised.
"You don't know me, do you?"
Fu Luo shook his head: "It's not that we know each other. It's just that in the 'Players Mutual Aid Association', there are some small circles and communication communities formed by the same 'profession'..."
Liang Ye and Li Hua nodded, seeming to know the situation.
Only Lin Yu was a little confused - he didn't know this thing existed at all.
However, Lin Yu knew that it was reasonable for him to have never been exposed to this thing. He still joined the game for too short a time.
In addition, since he is the 'only profession', he really had no idea of contacting in this area from the beginning.
News between players still relies too much on word of mouth - for things like this, Fu Luo would never know about it unless he said it.
But it was precisely because Fu Luo said it that he would know it later.
"If I could get into different 'professional' circles, it would probably be of great help to my performance."
Lin Yu thought silently and continued to listen to Fu Luo.
"When I communicated with 'detectives' from other places, I heard about a guy... Although this guy is a 'detective', he does a 'counter-detective' job."
"He specializes in planning 'crimes' against other players for various expelled players. If you want to kill a certain player or steal a certain prop... just go to him."
"And that guy calls himself a 'consultant' - when I helped our local 'order' solve several cases in Henan Province, his shadow seemed to be there, but because of the lack of identity, I couldn't completely determine which ones he did."
"Captain Gao Shan over there said that it cannot be ruled out that those guys fabricated the fact that they had received advice from 'advisors' in order to reduce their responsibilities."
"But this character is definitely not made up out of thin air, because he has many traces of actual activities... It's just that the other party is very smart, so he hides it well."
"Furthermore, according to my investigation, he should be very strong. The 'Third Order' is on the list and remains anonymous."
Liang Ye and Li Hua fell into thinking after listening to Fu Luo's speech.
"Xi Ba, I seem to have heard of such a person..."
Lin Yu looked directly at Fu Luo at this time: "You should have made some guesses about his true identity, but you just didn't tell us because there was no evidence or 100% certainty."
Fu Luo was surprised: "I'll go, have you seen all this?"
"You are indeed my good brother, May, you really understand me too well."
Lin Yu shook his head: "It's just intuition."
Of course it wasn't intuition, because he could tell that when Fulo introduced the characteristics of the other party, some parts were too specific - he seemed to be describing the characteristics of a specific person rather than describing a range.
So, even if Fu Luo rationally felt that he had not found out the other party's identity, he had already locked in a candidate in his subconscious mind.
"Who do you think that guy is? Tell me."
Li Hua also nodded: "Since that guy is hiding, it is very likely that he has not been cleared out of the forum."
Fu Luo thought for a while and said: "The other party's forum ID and social ID should both be 'Twenty', the 'Twenty' in twenty... As far as I know, he should really have some kind of 'dream-entering' method."
"Twenty?"
Hearing the other party's code name, Lin Yu frowned slightly.
It seems that I have seen several posts mentioning this ID before. If I remember correctly, it seems to be relatively positive.
The general content seems to be that this guy can often lead all players in puzzle-solving dungeons and pass the level perfectly without any casualties.
"Shit, this is a very serious accusation," Liang Ye's expression was also very serious, "That guy has good relations with many senior leaders of local organizations, middle and senior leaders of large organizations including our "Order", and even administrators of several cities."
"Are you sure, Forbolo?"
Fu Luo shook his head: "I didn't say that I was not sure, but... the direction of my current investigation finally pointed to him."
Li Hua raised his hand to interrupt the discussion: "Then put his matter aside for now, anyway, this guy claims to be just an "accomplice", and even if he didn't lie in the dream, he objectively helped us."
"It is more important to investigate the murderer first and give an explanation to the "Player Mutual Aid Association."
