Survival game: my plug-ins can stack up

Chapter 25 Acting as a righteous man

Judging from the time point, the couple who were killed that Ruby mentioned should be Xiao Ai's parents.

So Ruby was worried that Xiao Ai would end up like her.

Ruby's parents also died, and soon she moved into the Duke's Mansion... Could it be that Ruby was worried that Xiao Ai would also enter the Duke's Mansion and become a maid?

But this is not a bad result.

Besides, Ruby was too young at the time, and only the Duke's Palace was willing to take her in.

Xiao Ai is different. She is an adult and can make money by working with her own hands.

Just like what Xiao Ai said during the day today, she would go to the flower garden to take care of the flower fields in the morning and sell flowers in the afternoon.

If she can support herself, she doesn't have to enter the Duke's Palace.

So if this is not the "end" that Ruby is worried about, what else could it be?

The sculpture shook its head, looking even more depressed: "Ruby didn't say, I don't know."

Zhao Xun was not disappointed and asked instead: "Did anything else happen during this month?"

The sculpture frowned and said angrily: "It took more than twenty days before someone discovered the death of the couple, but for some reason it was blamed on Ruby. I saved Ruby Later, she told me that she was prepared to do everything possible to expose a dark inside story, but she was discovered before she could act, so she was forced to take the blame."

"Did she tell you who framed her?" Zhao Xun asked again.

"No." The sculpture replied calmly.

Zhao Xun was silent for a moment, then he looked up at the sculpture and said very seriously: "Ruby should have been wronged."

The sculpture blinked, as if he couldn't believe what he heard: "Do you believe Ruby?"

Now the residents of the entire town firmly believe that Ruby is an evil witch, and the sculpture has no hope that any humans will believe in Ruby.

Suddenly hearing Zhao Xun say this, Sculpture felt a little excited and a little happy.

Zhao Xun nodded and added, "If I can find evidence to prove that Ruby is innocent, then she won't have to live in hiding, and she won't have to worry about being burned on the rack."

"Really? You can do it?" The sculpture's expression was a little surprised, but also a little doubtful.

"I'll try my best." Zhao Xun did not directly confirm the vote, but said sincerely, "Innocent people should not be wronged. This is unfair. I can't see such an unfair thing happening, and I hope to do my best. , help her clear her grievances."

Seeing that Zhao Xun didn't seem to be joking, the sculpture gradually felt a little moved in his heart: "Thank you."

"This is what every person with a righteous heart should do." Zhao Xun smiled gently.

After a pause, he made another suggestion for the sculpture: "By the way, you should ask Ruby and let her tell everything she knows as much as possible, so that I can find evidence faster to prove her innocence."

The sculpture nodded: "Okay, I will persuade her."

"I will come again after the dinner tonight. I hope I can get some good news from you then." Zhao Xun looked at the time on his phone.

It's almost seven o'clock, and the dinner is about to officially begin.

"In such a hurry?" The sculpture was a little embarrassed.

"People in the public security department are not just freeloaders. The longer the matter is delayed, the higher the possibility that Ruby will be caught." Zhao Xun reminded.

"Okay, I understand." Sculpture felt that what Zhao Xun said made sense, and she nodded seriously, "I will definitely let Ruby tell me the inside story."

"Then I'll leave first and wait for your good news." After Zhao Xun finished speaking, his eyes casually glanced at the sculpture's chest and turned to leave.

His main mission, "getting the sculpture's heart," actually doesn't specify how to get it.

It can be to dig out the heart and obtain the heart through physical means.

It can also be emotional support and trust.

Of course, feelings are not necessarily love, kindness can be the same.

If the hidden mission is not triggered, Zhao Xun will consider trying to dig out the heart directly.

The simplest way to achieve your goal without causing unnecessary complications.

But if he triggers the hidden mission, he won't give up easily.

After all, he remembered that there was a [Special Items] column in the personal panel.

Since there is no way to purchase special items on the train, and there is no mall in the system, there is a high probability that this special item was produced in a hidden mission.

What's more, you may get extra points by clearing hidden tasks.

No matter which way you look at it, you shouldn't give up on the hidden mission easily.

With the constraints of the hidden mission, Zhao Xun had to keep the sculpture and Ruby alive, so he could only use the second, more troublesome way to get the sculpture's heart.

During the previous silence, he quickly weighed the gains and losses before choosing to act as a righteous man in front of the sculpture.

Fortunately, sculptures don't have as complex thoughts as humans. As long as they act sincerely enough, they are easy to fool.

Zhao Xun avoided the patrolling guards, quickly walked out of the bamboo forest, and rushed towards the banquet hall.

Because he had determined in the morning that he would have a big meal at the Duke's Mansion tonight, in order to save his supplies, he didn't eat all day.

So he couldn't miss this meal no matter what.

Zhao Xun entered the banquet hall smoothly.

Just as he took a breath, someone announced that the Duke had arrived.

Zhao Xun looked up and saw a middle-aged man with a big belly walking out.

Wearing a complicated and gorgeous dress, the bloated body looks like a large winter melon that is beautifully packaged.

Zhao Xun was not interested in the Duke. He was about to find some dessert to fill his stomach, but he saw someone following the Duke.

Something familiar.

His eyes glanced over.

It was the female player who looked underage.

The girl's hands were holding the hem of her skirt tightly and she was looking around uneasily.

It seems that this girl should be at the Duke's Palace after entering the game.

Like a strong man.

It's just that the identities of the two people are obviously different.

Judging from the girl's dress, she doesn't look like a maid...

The Duke raised his hand and took one of the girl's hands, pulling the girl into his arms.

There was unabashed possessiveness on his face, and his movements were even more intimate.

The girl was submissive and wanted to resist, but she didn't seem to dare to resist. She could only raise her hands and hug herself, as if she was defending herself, but also as if she was comforting herself.

Probably out of scruples in front of everyone, the Duke made no further moves, but his hands would linger on the girl's face, hands and waist from time to time.

Zhao Xun frowned slightly.

The picture was so jarring that he chose not to look at it.

He turned to the desserts on the table, and at the same moment the Duke began to speak.

After eating several pieces of small cakes, Zhao Xun finally felt that his hungry stomach had been somewhat comforted.
