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

Chapter 557: Rumors 4, the mysterious Forboluo

Time passes again.

In the early morning, less than twelve hours had passed since Huo Xing's coming-of-age ceremony in Buyetian.

After a busy night, Paris stood at the side door of Buyetian's house with a tired look on his face. After inhaling the orange-flavored stimulant, he felt a little refreshed.

“Huh, it’s getting exciting!”

Entering from the side door of the Buye Tian family is the auditorium and banquet hall of the Buye Tian family. Whenever the Buye Tian family has any large-scale events open to the public, such as family anniversary celebrations, the succession ceremony of the new head of the family, the wedding of the family's direct descendants, etc., they will choose to hold banquets and ceremonies here.

Compared with the simple and rustic style of the Buyetian family, the decoration here appears to be more luxurious. At the same time, the burning and jumping Buyetian family emblem can be seen everywhere, as if deliberately showing and emphasizing the nobility of the Buyetian family.

Standing at the side entrance, President Paris raised his head and looked at the vigilant guards of the Buyetian family standing at the sentry post on the wall, as well as the security guards disguised as servants hiding in the flower beds and greenery, and the newly installed scanning equipment at the latest prototype and concept machine level, and showed a smug expression.

"It's absolutely impregnable."

While Paris was sighing, Buyetian Huo Le walked out from the side door - this young lady also looked sleepy, obviously she had not slept all night.

"Impermanent? I hope so!"

Compared to Paris's confidence and pride, Huo Le of Buyetian seemed a little worried.

Both of them got up in the middle of the night to work overtime. After working all night, they reorganized and arranged the "safety protection" work that had already been arranged, and raised it by at least two levels.

Now the defense of the Buyetian family is almost comparable to the standards when the heads of royal noble families visit and meet with each other!

Under the personal instruction of the head of the Buyetian family, all security work for this coming-of-age ceremony was to be handled by Buyetian Huo Le - this was originally a good opportunity to expand the scope of power and could be considered a "good job".

but……

That's only if it's just an ordinary, safe coming-of-age ceremony.

Yesterday, Huo Le of Buyetian had learned from Lin Yu's reminder that someone might want to assassinate a royal noble here, so he naturally became nervous.

Even though the defenses had been deployed according to the specifications of "a high probability of assassins attempting to kill princes and nobles" during the day yesterday, Huo Le of Buyetian still had to work overtime again at night.

The reason is very simple - because the news that someone was going to assassinate the "royal nobles" was leaked out!

"The power of the royal nobility is reshuffled," "The Buyetian family sets up a trap to kill a guest," "The Shuiyin and Qiu families fight," "The internal strife of the Shenglan family heats up," "The Sorens family intends to use this as an opportunity to launch an all-out war"...

Various rumors were rampant, and people speculated about the reasons, most of which revolved around the grudges and conflicts of interest between royal nobles.

After all, in the eyes of the people in the City That Never Sleeps, the only ones who dare to attack the princes and nobles must be other princes and nobles!

In order to clear suspicion, the Buyetian family, as the host, had to make a full gesture as soon as possible - this is why Huo Le and Paris from Buyetian worked overtime all night.

After a whole night of hard work, the doubts about the Buyetian family had indeed decreased a lot, but Buyetian Huo Le did not feel relaxed at all.

On the contrary, she had enough headaches.

An executive from the Truth Company came over and handed the tablet to Buyetian Huo Le.

"Your Excellency, this is the hour's rumor collection and online public opinion monitoring..."

Huo Le felt a dull pain in his temples as he looked at the rumor details table, which was arranged into two lists according to the time of appearance and the popularity of discussion.

"Sure enough, the rumors are no longer limited to the family level..."

As time goes by, the rumors are becoming more specific.

The Nevernight Fire Apricot, the Nevernight Fire Tree, Qiu Xinliu, Shelf Sorens, Saint Lankui, Saint Lanlai... and even the Nevernight Fire Music himself.

Almost every prominent figure among the princes and nobles present was suspected of being both the mastermind and the target of the assassination, which sparked widespread discussion.

Various hypotheses and inferences emerge in an endless stream.

Among them, the rumor about Nevernight Fire Music was firmly in the top three in popularity - it had been going on for several hours.

President Paris also looked at the rankings, observing Nevernight Huo Le's expression, and whispered, "These rumors are indeed excessive... But look, even a respected elder like the esteemed Lord Art Mercury is being unjustly criticized, which shows how unreliable these rumors are."

"In the past, these nobles, both great and small, always showed great respect to everyone in your royal family. But now, faced with this kind of crisis, they all revealed their dark thoughts and ugly faces. The way they exploited this situation is truly disgusting."

"However, sir, please don't worry too much. We have made all the necessary preparations, so I think there will be no problem."

"Besides, we all know that you are definitely not the so-called mastermind... and you are definitely not the target of the assassination."

As President Paris spoke, Huo Le sighed, "If the target was me, it would be fine. But it's precisely because we don't know who it is, and it's probably not me, that it's so frustrating."

Huo Le rubbed his brows as he spoke: "Also, the hypothesis that I'm the mastermind behind this is too absurd, so people don't pay much attention to it, but..."

Huo Le swiped his fingers across the top ten rumors and found one about Forboluo.

"Why would anyone suspect that this assassination was planned by Forbolo... This is crazy, it's a slap in my face."

"Although Forboluo has been toughening up recently, how could he suddenly have the courage to assassinate a prince and nobles?!"

President Paris saw Forboluo's name and heard the words of Buyetian Huole. He was unusually slow for two seconds before quickly speaking to his master in a comforting tone, "Sir, this is indeed absurd... Mr. Forboluo must have been too popular recently, which is why he's attracted jealousy—as the saying goes, a tall tree attracts the wind."

Huo Le's expression eased slightly. "That should be the case, but this guy just happened to be absent at this time... and actually made these ridiculous rumors even more rampant."

At this moment, "Folpolo" has suddenly disappeared from the city that never sleeps for nearly a whole day. Considering the frequency of big news he made spreading almost every few hours a while ago... it is indeed a bit abnormal now.

And Nevernight Huo Le didn't know where he went - the message Paris conveyed to Nevernight Huo Le was "Mr. Forbolo left yesterday and said he was going to prepare some 'surprises' and then left."

Therefore, Huo Le of Buyetian couldn't help but feel a little worried at this time.

"Forbolo, what are you doing?"
