My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing-Chapter 236 - 140: Who is the Traitor? (Part 3)
"Snap!"
Inside the campfire, the crack of a burning branch snapped everyone back to attention.
The young man in the duckbill cap furrowed his brows, raised his wrist, and glanced at his Rolex watch before surveying the surroundings, "Has the member from Team Two still not returned?"
"No," a Transcendent from Team Two shook their head.
"How long has he been gone?" the young man asked.
The Transcendent from Team Two replied, "Almost an hour now."
"What was his reason for going out?"
"Said he was going to shoot a couple of rabbits."
"..."
Their conversation came to a halt.

Inside the temporary encampment of the diplomatic squad, quiet returned.
The only sounds were the "crackle" of burning wood and Chen Yu’s "munch munch" as he ate.
Everyone turned to look at Chen Yu, his mouth greasy from eating.
"Huh?" Chen Yu casually wiped the grease from his lips, still chewing vaguely, "What’s up?"
"Yu, what are you eating?" The chubby neighbor sitting beside him couldn’t help but ask.
"Rabbit meat," Chen Yu offered him a skewer. "Want a taste?"
"How can you eat little rabbits." The chubby neighbor reached out, "I’ll have some too."
The young man in the duckbill cap frowned more deeply, and after a long silence, suddenly spoke up, "During the time the missing member left, did anyone else leave the group?"
The people present exchanged looks and eventually turned their eyes to Chen Yu.
"I remember Chen Yu seemed to have gone out as well."
"I remember that, too."
"Was there anyone else?"
"I didn’t go. I’ve been sitting here the whole time."
"Me too…"
After gathering information from the crowd, the young man in the duckbill cap wore an ugly expression and asked Chen Yu, "Did you go out at that time?"
"Yeah," Chen Yu nodded, taking another bite of rabbit meat.
"What did you go out for?"
"To take a shit."
"...Where did you get these two rabbits from?"
"Got them from a corpse," Chen Yu swallowed his food and licked his fingers.
The young man in the duckbill cap: "!"
The armored strongman: "!!"
All the Transcendents present: "!!!"
Suddenly standing up, the young man in the duckbill cap’s pupils shrank sharply, "What? From a corpse?"
"Yep," Chen Yu nodded.
"Why didn’t you report it!" the young man roared.
"You didn’t ’sista’ ask," Chen Yu replied.
"Let’s go!" The young man immediately rushed to Chen Yu and grabbed his collar, "Take us to see the place."
Everyone stood up, and following Chen Yu, who continued to eat as he walked, they twisted and turned until they arrived at the "crime scene."
One team member quickly took out a flashlight, illuminating the ground.
The crowd immediately saw the Triangular-Eye Transcendent’s corpse cut into countless pieces.
"It’s him!" a member of Team Two exclaimed in horror. "It’s my teammate!"
"How is this possible…" The armored strongman was on edge, his fists clenched. "A D+ level Transcendent, just dead like that? Why didn’t I sense even a trace of a fight?"
"Jammer." The long-haired man stepped forward, picking up an iron rod stuck in the blood-stained ground, "An alpha model, this is good stuff."
Crouching down, the young man in the duckbill cap examined the body seriously.
’This method of dismemberment…’
’This technique of dismemberment…’
He slowly turned his head, his cold gaze falling on Chen Yu, "When you saw him, was he already dismembered?"
"Not at that time," Chen Yu tossed away the skewer with rabbit meat and licked his lips. "When I saw him, he was still hopping around."
"Oh, when you saw him he was still intact. Then why did you dis… wait! Damn it! It was you who killed him, wasn’t it?!"
"Yeah," Chen Yu nodded blankly. "I killed him."
"Why didn’t you say so?"
"You didn’t ’sista’ ask."
On the side, the armored strongman lost his temper, raging at the young man in the duckbill cap, "See! I told you he was a mole! He failed in his sneak attack on Li Yao, and now he’s really killed one! Come on, take him down!"
"Wait... Wait a minute!" The chubby neighbor panicked, standing in front of Chen Yu. "Is there some misunderstanding? My Yu, did you really kill him? Stop talking nonsense!"
"I killed him," Chen Yu nodded. "You all might not understand me yet. Speaking directly has always been my way."
Everyone: "..."
Without a sound, everyone harmoniously took a few steps back, encircling Chen Yu.
"Captain, calm down, don’t do anything." Extending his hand to stop the seemingly crazed, continuously lunging armored strongman, the young man in the duckbill cap stared unwaveringly at Chen Yu, "Chen Yu, do you understand what you’re doing?"
"Just killed a person, that’s all," Chen Yu said nonchalantly.
"Do you know the crime you have committed?" the young man bellowed furiously.
"Committed a crime?" Chen Yu furrowed his brow. "Could it be because I took his rabbit?"
Everyone: "..."
"You killed a comrade! Someone on the same mission as you! To say you committed treason would be putting it lightly!"
"Goodness gracious," Chen Yu said with disgust, "Such a big accusation you’re throwing on me, by your words, then I guess I did something wrong."
"You haven’t done anything wrong at all!!"
The young man in the duckbill cap was seeing stars in his frustration.
He actually held a certain "personal affection" for Chen Yu.
When they met for the first time, he became intensely interested in Chen Yu’s behavior and speech.
Later, he found out that Chen Yu was the chief culprit of the Hecheng incident. He liked him even more.
After all, the image of four arms swinging freely, as if a god or demon, was simply too cool.
Therefore, influenced by various factors, the young man had always considered the possibility of taking Chen Yu under his command.
