Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 273 Another layer of truth

After the leader of Group δ was "transformed" by Lin Yu, the last trace of uncertainty in the crisis on the train came to an end.

At the same time, this also means that Lin Yu holds the "key" to a lot of secrets about the Truth Company.

But at this moment, Lin Yu had no intention of opening it immediately.

Instead, he looked at Baron Coleman.

"Anyway, Your Excellency, now is the right time... Regarding the question I'm curious about."

"Why did they spare your life? You seemed to have mentioned it just now."

"The legacy of 'Professor Dot', right?"

Baron Coleman looked calmly at Lin Yu, and then at the armed team member who was standing respectfully behind the girl.

"'First', 'Second'... Now it's 'Last', right."

"His presence can become a new 'bargaining chip' in my negotiations and a 'verification' of the content of my words."

Lin Yu nodded.

"Yes, I believe you have no ill will towards me... but I don't believe you will be completely sincere to me, Your Excellency."

"You are a former high-ranking official of the Truth Corporation, who managed to survive a rebellion and assassination attempt."

"For someone like you, it's meaningless to talk about your good and bad qualities, and you will never be open with anyone."

"Although Your Excellency has repeatedly spoken of 'honesty', I don't think we have been honest enough."

It's not just as Lin Yu said.

Baron Coleman was already aware of the strength of their group - Wang Yuyang and Pan Yuqiang's actions just now further confirmed this.

But the usage of the [collar] that Lin Yu just demonstrated is "strength" in another dimension.

What means can be used and what beliefs do they have?

The obedient and docile man behind him, who was once the confidant of Baron Coleman's greatest enemy, was like a warning and a sign.

Lord Coleman looked up.

"So, where do you think I wasn't being honest?"

Lin Yu nodded slightly: "You really don't know that Baron Coleman is the mastermind behind this?"

"Although I don't know the specific details of your past experiences, I can still deduce them based on the time."

"Not long after you were slandered and then proved your innocence, you and President Paris became enemies."

"Even if you were 'wrongly accused', are you really innocent?"

"I even want to ask - is this really the first time you knew that 'Punkto' was the real murderer?"

He whispered, taking a step forward.

"You can use those sufficiently 'logical' performances to deceive the detective who makes a living by logic, but ah..."

"I'm more of a person who relies on intuition."

Baron Coleman looked at Lin Yu: "A woman's sixth sense?"

"Of course not, it's because your acting skills in portraying shock and astonishment are so bad!" - Although Lin Yu wanted to say this, he held back.

It's always like this...someone always tries to deceive him, a professional actor and con man, with his amateur acting skills.

Lin Yu suppressed the complaints in his heart and nodded noncommittally in a manner consistent with his current personality.

"Yes, so—why did you end up in that lab? Why were you wrongly accused of murder? Why did you get Professor Dot's inheritance? Why did you turn against President Paris?"

"Furthermore, since you received the legacy of your mentor, 'Vill Valetti,' and have a certain understanding of the [Ancient Notes]... you should be able to foresee what we consider to be an 'accident,' right?"

Lin Yu snapped his fingers and looked at Punkto, who had been standing aside and seemed a little surprised.

"You are also curious about all this, right... Mr. Ponkdo?"

Ponkdo looked at Baron Coleman and said, "Jerry, is that really the case? I really felt sorry for you just now."

Baron Coleman smiled silently.

"It's really hard to get used to talking to someone as innocent as a blank slate like you, Punkto."

He sighed deeply and said, "People always hide facts that are disadvantageous to them. I think this is just human nature."

"In short, I'm certainly not some innocent person persecuted by Paris, a progressive person with ideals and justice... There might be people like that in Truth Company, but they're definitely not the type to become an A-rank executive, and definitely not me."

"The same goes for Punkto over there. That's why I don't want to talk about this."

"It's rare that he forgets about that. He always thinks it's better not to mention it."

As he spoke, he looked up at the sky—the despair train was speeding by, and the night sky above the city that never sleeps was gloomy, dull and gray, blurred by the bright spotlights and neon lights of the high-rise buildings.

"Anyway... we were indeed in cahoots with Paris back then. He was the head of the Security Department, an A-level supervisor, and the leader of Delta Team... He helped Punkto undergo the 'Misfortune Series' transformation and helped me take charge of Lab 7."

"We had different goals at the time—Punkto wanted to investigate my great-uncle's whereabouts, I wanted to restore my family's glory, and Paris came from a poor family and his sister was seriously ill..."

"But we all have the same goal: to climb the ladder within Truth Company."

"Although the initial motivations sound quite noble, the higher you climb... the motivation of 'becoming a superior' becomes stronger. While the original purpose hasn't been forgotten, it becomes more and more like an excuse."

"By the time the three of us 'gathered' together, everyone was no longer as pure as they used to be."

"So, there's a reversal of cause and effect in what I said—I did find evidence of the 'Ghost Project' after entering Lab 7, but I actually knew that evidence might exist in Lab 7 before I even entered."

"I went there precisely for the evidence."

Coleman narrated all this and Fu Luo was shocked.

"Oh my god, no wonder I always felt something was off when I was reasoning... So this is where the problem lies."

"If your discovery is a 'coincidence', it is indeed too strange!"

He said in shock.

Punkto was stunned: "So, you expected me to kill Reed?"

"No, I really didn't know it was you and Paris who did this," Coleman sighed. "When I entered the lab, I didn't expect Paris to kill Reed directly. Our plan was for Paris to get him out of the way, and for me to enter the lab and steal the 'data' that would take all three of us to the next level."

"Parris informed me at the time that this 'ghost project' was a secret research project that Reed had privately discovered and persuaded Director Chick to conduct. If we could get our hands on it, whether as an independent project within Lab 7 or through negotiations with Director Chick, it would give us the opportunity to make further progress."

"And the value of that thing far exceeded my imagination... So when I was on the scene, I didn't realize that this was Paris's plan, but when I returned to my laboratory and read the data, I instantly understood."

"The data contained in it is far more valuable than anything that could allow the three of us to advance several levels... enough to warrant Paris risking the lives of our two 'accomplices'."

"Because that's what Professor Dot and his protégé, Researcher Will Valetti, discovered—the truth about 'fear.'"
