Chapter 50: You Are Lying

After separating from Xiu Wu, Ji Yang and Tan Wei, Zhu Lin went to the mission hall to report her mission. Unlike the first time she visited the mission hall, when she walked into the mission hall, there were only a few people inside.

Looking at the empty mission hall, Tu Tu said, [Master, don’t you think the atmosphere in the base is different from before we left?]

Because she was often in a daze, Zhu Lin didn’t notice anything unusual, so she shook her head and said, [what is the difference?]

Tu Tu tilted its small head slightly, and asked, [Master, you really didn’t sense anything?]

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, [No.]

Hearing what its master said, Tu Tu scratched its head and said, [Maybe I was wrong.]

While the rabbit was looking around suspiciously, Zhu Lin was already standing in front of the counter and said, "Good morning, Sir. I want to report my mission."

After speaking, she took out the paper she received when accepting the mission from the ice flower pendant. She put the paper on the table and asked, "Where can I submit the supplies?"

The officer took the mission request, checked it in the logbook, and said, "How many supplies did you collect?"

Zhu Lin used her divine sense to take a look inside the Qiankun bag hanging on her waist and said, "Not many, but I also found some tools."

Hearing her words, the officer stood up, walked out from behind the counter, and said, "Please follow me."

After speaking, the officer walked towards a door on the side of the counter, followed by Zhu Lin. When they walked into the empty room, the officer closed the door and said, "Miss, You can take out the supplies first. I’m going to call the medical staff to check on the medical supplies."

Leaving this sentence, the officer walked out of the room. After the door closed behind him, Zhu Lin took out all the things collected from the hospital last night. While waiting for the officer, she took out an apple from the Qiankun bag.

When growing the fruit trees before, she gave half of the fruit to Ji Yang and Tan Wei, and then gave them all the fruit trees. This is a good decision because she can eat fruit when she is hungry, and no need to bother with cooking. Unless she wanted to eat the snake meat, she really didn’t need to cook.

She just took a bite of the apple when the door opened and the officer walked in with a man in a white coat. The officers and the young man were taken aback when they saw the room filled with machines and bags of medical supplies.

The officer looked at Zhu Lin, and before he could speak, his eyes fell on the big red apple in her hand. His eyes widened in surprise, but he held back what he wanted to say.

He coughed lightly and said, "Miss, are these the supplies you want to submit to complete your mission?"

Zhu Lin nodded as an answer, and then the officer looked at the young man and said, "Please help us check if these things can still be used."

The doctor nodded and began to check the medicine first. While waiting for the doctor to check the medical supplies, the officer watched Zhu Lin eat the apple.

When only the apple core was left, the officer suddenly said, "Miss, can you give me the apple core?"

Zhu Lin didn’t understand why he wanted the apple core, so she asked, "Why do you want the apple core?"

The officer thought she was unwilling to give him the apple core, so he quickly said, "I can buy it from you. How about I exchange three ordinary crystal nucleus for your apple core?"

Hearing his words, Zhu Lin was taken aback, and glanced at the apple core in her hand. Just when Zhu Lin was skeptical that one apple core could really be exchanged for three ordinary crystal nucleus, the officer thought that Zhu Lin hesitated because the price he offered was too low.

He gritted his teeth and said, "How about four ordinary crystal nucleus? I really can’t afford to pay more than that."

Seeing the officer’s anxious expression, Zhu Lin thought for a while and asked curiously: "Why do you want to buy the apple core?"

Hearing her question, the officer’s expression froze for one second, before he smiled stiffly and said, "My wife is pregnant, and she wants to eat some fruit. Unfortunately, the price of fruit is too high and I can’t afford it. Just now I saw you want to throw away the apple core, so I decided to buy it from you."

After speaking, the officer observed Zhu Lin’s expression for two seconds, put on a pitiful expression and said, "Miss, please help me. Can you sell me your apple core?"

Tu Tu, who was sitting on Zhu Lin’s shoulder, suddenly said, [Master, he is lying.]

Listening to Tu Tu’s words, Zhu Lin raised her eyebrows in slight surprise and said, [Really? I thought his wife really wanted to eat apples.]

Tu Tu sighed and helplessly said, [Master, don’t think that just because you can’t tell lies, everyone also won’t lie. In fact, everyone lies, including those gods in the Six Realms. If you observe his behavior and the way he speaks carefully, you will know he is lying just now.]

Zhu Lin thought for a while, then looked at the officer and said, "You are lying."

As soon as she finished speaking, the officer’s face changed. He looked at Zhu Lin with a frown and said, "Miss, if you don’t want to sell the apple core, just say so. There is no need to accuse me of lying."

After speaking, the officer walked to the other side of the room and stood there, refusing to speak to Zhu Lin. Seeing the officer act like this, Zhu Lin was a little puzzled.
