After Transmigrating into a Novel with My Boyfriend, He Turned Out to Be a Native Villain-Chapter 235: Do You Know Someone Named Li Mu?
When Yu Li returned to school, Mu Chengsi had already saved a seat for her.
As soon as she sat down, someone poked her arm. Her movement paused slightly as she turned to look. “What is it?”
Mu Chengsi glanced around, then leaned in and whispered.
“Did you know those three players who died in last night’s instance all came back to life?”
Yu Li didn’t look particularly surprised when she heard that. She lazily propped her chin up and said, “Yeah, I know.”
Bo Jingmo had already told her.
Rong Fan and Jiang Xi’s revival was expected, but as for Chen Zhixia...
“I heard Chen Zhixia and Jiang Xi were revived by other high-level players using points.”
Mu Chengsi explained in a low voice, “Also, Rong Fan messaged me this morning. He told me to go to deva again this weekend. He and Sister Yu Jiao are both on a business trip. Said they’re meeting with other organizations.”
“...Business trip?”
Yu Li’s expression turned odd. “You guys do it that officially?”
An organization formed because of an instance needs to go on business trips in real life?
“Right? I thought it was weird too. Plus, I’ve got a bad feeling.” Mu Chengsi’s gaze darkened. “Jiang Xi’s revival was definitely handled by peace, but Chen Zhixia… he doesn’t seem like someone who ever joined a team.”
There aren’t that many high-level players kind enough to spend their own points on reviving a low-key mid-level player.
A flicker of thought passed through Yu Li’s eyes. She then turned her head to look at Mu Chengsi. “By the way… do you know someone named Li Mu?”
That familiar name made Mu Chengsi freeze for a moment. “Li Mu? How do you know that name?”
So she does know?
Yu Li spoke lazily, “Rong Fan mentioned her. Is she famous or something?”
Her tone was incredibly casual, but Mu Chengsi’s eyes widened.
Huh? Rong Fan?
No way. When did she make a move on Rong Fan? Wasn’t she afraid of being exposed in the instance?
But thinking about the person in front of her, she definitely had the arrogance to pull it off. Mu Chengsi swallowed her shock and explained,
“I’ve never met Li Mu. I only heard about her recently. They say that woman used to be number one on the leaderboard. But now, she’s apparently dead.”
“Dead?” Yu Li’s expression turned slightly intrigued. “No reason why?”
Someone strong enough to be number one wouldn’t just die for no reason.
Mu Chengsi shook her head, clearly unsure.
“That was a long time ago. I don’t know the details. I just know she used to be really famous, and she was teammates with Rong Fan and Sister Yu Jiao.”
“I see.” Yu Li’s eyes flickered slightly as her fingertips slowly traced the edge of her book. Who knew what she was thinking.
After saying that, Mu Chengsi seemed to remember something. Her gaze paused.
She opened her mouth, hesitated for a while, then finally blushed and spoke slowly, “Also, thank you… for helping me become number one.”
This was the first time Mu Chengsi ever ranked first in an A-rank instance. Her ranking had jumped several spots.
Caught off guard by the thanks, Yu Li was stunned at first. Then she chuckled softly. Tilting her head, her eyes curved slightly as she smiled,
“If you really want to thank me, why not dig up more info about deva for me?”
Seeing her clearly teasing expression, Mu Chengsi’s cheeks turned slightly red. But since she had benefited from her, she nodded earnestly.
“Don’t worry. As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll do my best to help you.”
At that moment, Mu Chengsi had completely forgotten how she originally viewed their relationship—purely transactional.
But now, she was unconsciously starting to lean toward Yu Li.
Hearing her promise, Yu Li curled her lips but didn’t say anything more.
To be honest, she was pretty curious about deva. It’d be great if she could take a look inside.
But the risk of exposure was too high. With the instincts those high-level players had, meeting them face-to-face might blow her cover.
Yu Li lowered her eyes, thinking idly—if only there were an excuse to get in naturally.
...
Meanwhile, on a plane to City Z.
Rong Fan wearily rubbed his brow, looking visibly unwell.
No surprise. He had just come out of an instance when Yu Jiao called him to the office, only to find the flight was already booked.
He told Mu Chengsi it was a business trip meeting, but in truth, it was just a gathering with some old player acquaintances. Over time, their contact had dwindled.
There were four major organizations in the film set. Aside from peace and deva, there were also X and ice. But those two were based elsewhere and rarely interacted with the others.
They barely got involved in peace or deva’s affairs and usually stayed neutral.
In today’s terms, they were chill.
But not this time. The reason for this meeting was that woman’s return. No matter how chill they were, they couldn’t ignore it.
Yu Jiao sat beside him, frowning as she looked at the drowsy Rong Fan.
“Rong Fan, how did you die in the instance last night? I really didn’t expect you’d use a resurrection card.”
When she saw Rong Fan’s status showing “dead,” Yu Jiao thought she was seeing things.
Was it because he hadn’t played in a while, or was it… Li Mu who killed him?
Though she figured the latter was more likely.
Being asked about it, Rong Fan’s movement froze. His eyes turned dark.
“Yu Jiao, do you know what I saw on Bo Jingmo?”
Yu Jiao only knew Rong Fan had died, and that in the end, Mu Chengsi had won.
As for the full picture of the film set… she’d only get that once they arrived in City Z.
So she asked curiously, “What? What could Bo Jingmo have?”
Rong Fan’s gaze deepened. He crossed his arms and said, word for word:
“Black Moon.”
Hearing those two familiar words, Yu Jiao froze. “You said Black Moon? But isn’t that Li Mu’s—” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
“Yes. It’s Li Mu’s Black Moon.”
Yu Jiao frowned. “Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong? Could it be Bo Jingmo’s resentment? After all, he always…”
“I’m absolutely sure.”
Rong Fan cut her off and let out a cold laugh. “Because I was killed by Black Moon.”
The real question was, where did Bo Jingmo get Black Moon from?
Yu Jiao’s expression turned serious too. She lowered her eyes in thought.
“...Black Moon is actually on Bo Jingmo?”
What was he trying to tell them?
“If that’s true, then… Li Mu’s return might not be so simple after all.”
