Chapter 717: Chapter 347: I Knew There Was Something Off About Him!_2

Lin Baici leaned against the back of the chair, his right hand gripping the Paramour Pliers, tapping them on the ground as his gaze swept over the faces of those present.

"Have you searched the room in the lobby on the first floor?"

Lin Baici asked.

"I’ve been in there, but there was nothing!"

The redhead woman raised her hand.

"I’ve been in there too!"

"Several of us have been in, just an ordinary room!"

"The manager must be male, and quite lecherous, because I saw over a dozen adult magazines and some pirated adult films in the drawer."

At the entrance on the first floor of this sort of rental apartment, there would always be a reception room, where the manager is responsible for collecting packages, letters, patrolling at night, and fixing daily facility issues.

"Then you must have seen the dirty clothes on the bed, right?"

Lin Baici asked with a smile.

Everyone thought about it, indeed, there were a few pieces of unwashed clothes lying on the bed.

"There are also a few pairs of shoes and some stinky socks under the bed,"

Bath added.

Upon hearing this, Jie Susi’s eyebrows twitched, as he sized up the corpse of the working uncle.

"I get it!"

Che Zhengshuo suddenly realized.

Whoosh!

Everyone turned to look.

"What do you get?"

Gao Heng, who had a volatile temper, snapped, "Spit it out!"

"The man is wearing canvas trousers, a white shirt, and cloth shoes, like the clothes in the manager’s room; they’re the same style!"

Che Zhengshuo stood up straight with his hands in his pockets, showing Lin Baici a look of admiration.

"..."

The crowd was astonished.

But it seemed to make some sense!

"Just for that reason?"

Bath shook his head: "It’s not convincing enough, is it?"

He wasn’t just being contrary; he believed himself to be intelligent, living by his wits, so he couldn’t agree with it intellectually.

"And the smell!"

Lin Baici chuckled. When he came out of the manager’s room, he simply thought that the working uncle was dressed too casually, more like he had just finished work and was going to a street stall for barbecue than like someone exploring the Divine Ruins.

Of course, everyone has different tastes, and what if he just liked to dress that way?

Moreover, most God Hunters felt a strong sense of superiority towards ordinary people, living even more according to their whims, indifferent to the opinions of others.

Lin Baici didn’t think much further, until outside the apartment, when he activated "A Sip of A Hundred Flavors" to track the monster, he smelled the same scent on the working uncle as in the manager’s room.

It was unlikely that the uncle had rolled around on that single spring bed or stolen the stinky socks from under it, right?

They weren’t women’s silk stockings, after all!

Then Lin Baici recalled everything that happened after he entered the lobby on the first floor, realizing that when the wrapped woman in office wear appeared, and chose people to ask for gifts, she never looked directly at the working uncle.

Something was off.

Why was he the exception?

Clearly, the wrapped woman in office wear was not into older men!

Though the thought of a temporary companion suddenly turning into a monster seemed far-fetched, with three pieces of evidence in hand, Lin Baici had to take a gamble!

He hadn’t tried before because aside from dispensing smoke, the working uncle posed no danger, so Lin Baici wasn’t in a hurry, but now he had no choice.

He had to kill the manager to use the Ask God Turtle Shell.

"Smell?"

Bath’s mind worked quickly, instantly catching on: "You mean his smell is the same as in the manager’s room?"

Holy shit!

How could I have forgotten that?

Bath cursed himself for being stupid, even feeling an urge to immediately lie down and sniff the working uncle’s body and compare it with the smell in the room.

"Damn, learned something new!"

Li Yintong was ecstatic, uncontrollably lunging towards Lin Baici, wanting to plant a kiss on him, but Lin Baici’s sharp gaze swept over her, causing her to freeze in place.

In that moment, Lin Baici, sitting in the chair with a grandiose posture, leaning back, and tapping the ground lightly with the pliers in his hand, truly exuded the aura of a mob boss — commanding and disdainful.

Scary!

Even ghosts would have to pay up protection money before leaving alive!

The others fell silent, basically accepting Lin Baici’s assessment.

Jie Susi looked down at the body on the ground with complicated emotions. If Lin Baici killed the manager, everyone’s Taboo things would be usable, which would greatly increase his combat effectiveness and survival rate. He should be happy, but that would also leave him with a strong sense of defeat.

Because Lin Baici was the one who solved the problem.

Wait a minute,

Can’t I just test the Taboo things?

Jie Susi quickly took out an anti-wind lighter and pressed it!

Click!

No flame ignited.

"It’s not working!"

Jie Susi looked at Lin Baici, "This little monster... the little cutie just said that if we kill the administrator, we can use the taboo things, so he’s not the one!"

Seeing this, the others immediately attempted and found that indeed the taboo things could not be activated.

Lin Baici raised his eyebrows, almost activating the Bodhi Messenger’s Kasaya to try calling upon the Muscle Buddha, but he quickly held back.

Such trump cards should be kept secret.

And though Eater God had given no hints, he was absolutely certain that he had killed the administrator.

Maybe the little cutie lied, providing false information.

Everyone looked disheartened, and the red-haired woman felt embarrassed for Lin Baici’s failed deduction.

"So embarrassing!"

Gao Heng felt if he encountered something like this, he’d have a psychological shadow for life, dreaming of being ridiculed.

"Eh? How come mine works?"

Li Yintong exclaimed in surprise as the butterfly knife in her hand, after leaving her right hand, continued to twirl, as if controlled by an invisible hand.

Smack!

Huang Jinxiang slapped Li Yintong on the forehead, "Put it away quickly!"

His taboo thing could also be activated, but he wouldn’t brag about it since it was a trump card that shouldn’t be revealed.

"Damn!"

Tai Mei also realized and quickly put away the butterfly knife.

"What’s going on?"

Kim Jinsoo didn’t understand.

Lin Baici brought the Black Tripod Bowl to his mouth and mumbled ’drink porridge, drink porridge’ twice, and immediately a vortex-like halo appeared at the mouth of the bowl.

’The granary’ opened!

Lin Baici took out the Ask God Turtle Shell.

"Why can you use it?"

Dorisan, possibly with her brain burnt from the high heat, seemed to have a sudden drop in IQ.

"I get it, only those who have attacked this administrator can undo the seal on the taboo things!"

Bath explained as he rushed to the corpse of the working uncle, kicking it viciously; worried that might not work, he even chopped at it twice.

Seeing this, the others hurriedly followed suit.

"Don’t waste your effort. Only those who participated in killing the administrator have the right to use the taboo things!"

The little cutie, who had been silently watching the drama, suddenly spoke up to explain.

Deduction is so interesting, I should prepare a few deduction games too!

Yes!

And make it the kind where people die horribly.

The words of the little cutie froze everyone; then came endless regret, asking themselves why they hadn’t attacked when Lin Baici made his move.

A mishap!

Huang Jinxiang and Li Yintong exchanged glances before bursting out laughing.

"Haha, trust in God Lin, gain eternal life!"

"Hehe, I have such good judgment, following God Lin is bound to bring me fortune!"

The two were extremely proud; being able to use the taboo things significantly increased their chances of survival, and more importantly, the envious looks from Bath and others made Huang Jinxiang and Li Yintong feel ecstatic.

"No way, we can’t miss out on such an impressive young man at Nine Dragons Hall, I must recommend him to the hall master!"

Huang Jinxiang felt confident that following Lin Baici, he would definitely make his way out of the Busan Divine Ruins.

"Ah!"

The red-haired woman grabbed her head in frustration, on the verge of going crazy, "What kind of ridiculous rule is this?"

"Although uncle administrator wasn’t as strong as us sisters, he still could fight. As long as someone found him, they could land a few hits."

The little cutie looked at Lin Baici and shrugged, "But who knew big brother was so cunning, going straight for a stealthy attack and killing him!"

The crowd wryly smiled, who could they complain to?

It couldn’t be that they blamed Lin Baici for being too strong?

God Lin? God Lin?

Previously, they had referred to Lin Baici in such a manner out of courtesy, but this time, they were genuinely convinced.

[What are you staring at? Pick up the taboo things!]

[Old friends and cigarettes are companions for life!]

Eater God commented.

Lin Baici’s gaze immediately settled on the cigarette case held in the working uncle’s right hand.

He wasn’t in a hurry to pick it up!

After all, who would dare to compete?

It would be a death wish!
