Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

Chapter 398 Shi Yuan's Confusion

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's question, Jiang Shiyuan silently turned away and became withdrawn.

Indeed, one should not be too smug.

She had been clinging to a sliver of hope, thinking that priests in churches often said things like "You did a good job, child," and that even if Lin Qiye overheard it, he might not necessarily make that connection.

Now it seems that loose lips sink ships. You really can't be careless in front of a smart guy like Lin Qiye.

"If you don't want to talk, then don't. Why put on this act? I'm not going to eat you." Lin Qiye could tell from Jiang Shiyuan's appearance that she was frantically thinking of a solution again. He shook his head and forcefully turned her over.

Although he could clearly 'see' Jiang Shiyuan's expression even when she was hiding under the covers, there had been enough past examples, and he didn't want her to hide from him.

Moreover, what if she feels very secure and actually comes up with a plan to fool him?

He had a deep understanding of the art of deception.

He wanted to look at her face to face, and keep looking at her... and keep looking at her.

Lin Qiye smiled sinisterly, his mind filled with an inexplicable darkness.

"...You still say you don't eat people? I think you're terrifying." They were too close, almost face to face. Jiang Shiyuan had no way to avoid them and could only vaguely see those deep, scrutinizing eyes. They were incredibly oppressive and made people feel very uncomfortable.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye did not answer, but only stared at the person.

Staring...

A few minutes later, Jiang Shiyuan felt uncomfortable being stared at and became annoyed.

Okay, okay, so they're treating her like a prisoner?

She struggled to back away a little in the cramped space, stretched out her index finger and pressed it against Lin Qiye's forehead, warning, "If you keep looking at me like that, I'll hit you!"

(A person's thought process: guilt, embarrassment, downplaying the issue, righteous indignation, anger.)

Lin Qiye: “…”

He looked at the angry girl beneath him, feeling both amused and exasperated.

So you resort to violence to overturn the table when you can't win an argument?

You will break the deadlock.

"Alright, actually I don't expect you to open up to me right now. Since you don't want to talk, do you want to hear it?" Lin Qiye decided to avoid the limelight in just one second.

"Listen to what?"

"I will tell you all my secrets whenever you want to hear them."

"Oh, never mind then, I don't want to hear it."

"Huh?" Lin Qiye choked up. He never expected that one day when he wanted to tell his biggest secret, she wouldn't want to listen.

"Why? Aren't you curious?"

Why did he have interactions with so many gods? Why did Nyx and Merlin treat him this way? And what about the Thunder Beast that she loved so much? All these events were clearly unusual.

On the surface, he had more secrets than she did.

He didn't believe she wasn't curious.

"Everyone has secrets. Why didn't you tell me before? Why are you telling me now? Aren't you just trying to trick me?" No matter what Lin Qiye said, Jiang Shiyuan just wouldn't fall for it.

She will confess when the time is right, but definitely not now.

The air fell silent for a few seconds as soon as he finished speaking.

Lin Qiye stared intently into her fearless eyes, then suddenly smiled, "It seems... Shi Yuan from my family knows me a little better than I thought..."

When she refused, she showed no hesitation or interest whatsoever, which is illogical.

However, apart from the temporarily unidentified pseudo-'former director' Jinian, he did not obtain any information about the existence of a third person in the Gods Mental Hospital.

According to the memorial, she came with the Gods' Mental Hospital, and followed the hospital through the mist, collecting the gods one by one.

In other words, Jinian was the first person to appear in the hospital.

Then, following the order of the wards, the order is Nyx, Merlin, Bragi (Eden), Sun Wukong, Gilgamesh, and Yeland.

Then, it was him.

There couldn't possibly be anyone else involved, because he had already tested Nyx and Merlin with the existence of Ji Nian long ago. Jiang Shiyuan couldn't possibly be so powerful as to deceive several gods. If they knew, they would definitely have told him.

Then the problem comes again.

Since she hadn't been inside the hospital before, how did she know that Yeland liked to say that phrase?

It can't be because of that so-called fate line, can it?

Even Merlin couldn't fully see his fate, so could Jiang Shiyuan's research in this area be even deeper than Merlin's?

"Shi Yuan, forgive my curiosity. You are like a mystery placed before me. I want to solve it, but I can never solve it."

Sometimes, I even doubt if you're real.

……

The conversation ended inconclusively with Lin Qiye's unwilling expression.

Jiang Shiyuan lay in Lin Qiye's arms, feeling sleepy yet somewhat confused.

Why is it that Lin Qiye is able to keep secrets so well hidden in his novels?

He didn't tell anyone, and no one ever tried to find out. Everyone knew it was a tacit understanding, and everything was so natural.

When he got to her, he tested her every day, and once he got a chance, he couldn't wait to spill his secrets.

And while you're at it, reveal her secrets too.

Now look at her, she's been made to look like an Eighth Route Army soldier infiltrating the enemy in a ridiculous anti-Japanese war movie (just an analogy).

Fortunately, Lin Qiye's methods were still quite gentle. Even though she was unwilling, he let it go as long as she didn't say anything.

She felt quite guilty about using a dull knife to grind her flesh...
