25 It was you all along.
Everyone looked at Scarlett.
Scarlett, somewhat shy and hesitant, lowered her head and said, "At that time, Qin saved my life in a moment of crisis. We were alone in a room, and it was hard for us to control our emotions. Just as Qin and I were getting emotional, Yamamoto ran in and witnessed what was happening between us."
Everyone looked at Scarlett and Qin Mian with strange expressions.
Andreev was clearly a little envious of Qin Mian. After all, Scarlett, the big star, was definitely the type that most men liked, whether it was her looks, figure, or fame.
"What's wrong with Scarlett's eyes? She can even be interested in someone like Qin Mian? Oh dear..." Andreev lamented, thinking to himself why he hadn't been with Scarlett back then.
Maybe they're already sleeping together.
Who knows if I'll survive this dungeon, but I'll enjoy every moment of fun.
"Um... this..." Alice said awkwardly, "There's really no need to hide it. So, what happened next? Why didn't Yamamoto leave?"
Scarlett continued, "Actually, for us actors, this isn't a big deal, but as you saw, Qin is just an innocent college student. Being caught doing something like this is bound to make him a little embarrassed. He was both ashamed and anxious at the time, and in a moment of impulsiveness, he... got into a fight with Mr. Yamamoto. Yamamoto didn't make things difficult for Qin and ran away for the time being!"
Scarlett glanced at Yamamoto Ichiro as she spoke, her meaning quite clear.
I haven't revealed your ninja abilities, so stop talking nonsense and let's leave it at that.
Yamamoto Ichiro, knowing when to stop, looked at Qin Mian and said, "Haha, Qin-san, I'm so sorry to have interrupted your good time. Don't worry, as long as you can clear the dungeon alive this time, I swear I'll introduce you to some pretty girls from our Sakura country as compensation."
Yamamoto Ichiro readily agreed, much to Scarlett's relief.
What she feared most was that Yamamoto Ichiro would directly reveal her identity, which would put her in danger.
The group exchanged glances, unsure whether they believed Scarlett's words.
But at least judging from Scarlett's performance, she doesn't seem to be lying.
Andreev waved his hand impatiently. "Alright, alright! What the hell is there to talk about in this mess? I don't want to hear it! Yamamoto, you just said Park Guk-chang and Kia were lying! What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"
Everyone's attention was once again drawn back to the main topic.
"Yamamoto Ichiro, I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense, or the gods will punish you!" Kia suddenly became agitated again.
Yamamoto Ichiro snorted coldly, retorting sharply, "Hmph, Gia, you're so eager to threaten me... are you feeling guilty?"
"You're talking nonsense! I just don't want you, with your ulterior motives, to mislead everyone's judgment with lies and ruin our final unity!" Kia retorted, his face red and his neck bulging.
Yamamoto Ichiro shrugged, glanced at Kia, then at Park Guk-chang, who remained calm throughout.
"Kisan, look at Park-san, so calm. You should learn from him!" Yamamoto Ichiro said with a smile.
"Enough with the nonsense, can't you get to the point!" Andreev said impatiently.
Alice frowned and said, "Yamamoto, what did you see? Tell us quickly, we don't have time to waste here."
"Alright!" Yamamoto Ichiro shrugged. "Then I'll tell you everything I saw back then."
"At that time, after I left Miss Scarlett's room, I hid in the next room. I was so sleepy that I fell asleep as soon as I woke up. I didn't expect to hear Akuku shouting angrily."
"What are you shouting?" Andreev asked urgently.
Yamamoto Ichiro took a deep breath, mimicking that tone of shock and anger, and repeated, word by word, "So... you're the demon!"
Another person seemed to be saying, "We're one step closer to the end of the mission."
hiss……
Everyone gasped and turned to look at Park Guk-chang and Kiah.
Andreev then pulled out a rusty machete, stepped forward, and coldly stared at Park Guk-chang and Kiah.
Alice anxiously pressed, "Yamamoto, did you hear whose voice it was? Or saw who it was?"
Yamamoto Ichiro shook his head. "No, I had just woken up and was still groggy. Plus, the wind outside made me not realize what was happening until those desert army ants appeared, which startled me awake!"
"Then, I rushed out and saw Ah Ku Ku, clutching his chest with one hand, staggering out of a stone house! His face was deathly pale, and blood was seeping from between his fingers! He couldn't run more than a few steps before collapsing onto the sand. Then, he was surrounded by endless desert army ants. Luckily, the smell of blood on him attracted other desert army ants, which gave me a chance to escape!"
"You...you're talking nonsense! You're slandering me! I didn't even see you at the time! You made this all up! You, Yamamoto Ichiro, I think you're the real 'demon'! You killed Akuko, and now you're framing us!"
Kia completely lost his composure, pointing at Yamamoto Ichiro's nose and cursing wildly with spittle flying. There was no trace of the solemnity and mystery of the "High Priest" left, only a frantic madness.
"I'm talking nonsense? Fine, Kia, since you're so sure of your innocence, do you dare to—in the name of the god Shiva you serve, make the most vicious divine oath, saying that every word you just said about Akuku's death is true and without any falsehood? If you dare, I, Yamamoto Ichiro, will immediately kowtow to you and admit my mistake!" Yamamoto Ichiro stared at Kia.
"Yes, Kia, you are a priest, and you revere the gods the most. If you want to prove your innocence, it's very simple. Just swear an oath to the gods, and we will believe you!" Andreev said.
Kia's face was extremely ugly. "I... why should you believe what he said is true? I'll say he's the devil, he's just trying to sow discord and confuse the public."
But at that moment, Park Guk-chang, who had been silent all along, suddenly pointed at Kia and said angrily, "Oh, Kia, it really was you. I remember now, you and A-Ku-Ku did run from the same direction. You ran very fast and looked very guilty. Then, Kia fell to the ground after only a few steps."
"At the time, I thought, 'Ku-Ku is a wilderness survival expert, and his physical strength and adaptability should be the strongest. How come he's lagging behind you and struggling to run?' Now, after hearing Yamamoto's words, I understand! You've already severely injured Ku-Ku, and you deliberately let me see you two running out together."
"If Yamamoto hadn't happened to see us, I would have been fooled by you!"
