121: Chapter 121 Alice's Doll Tea Party 14

Luo Yuejian was dumbfounded. She looked at the oil painting, then at the Little Girl with a Crown, thinking to herself, 'Is it really that bad? Such an obvious problem, and the Little Girl with a Crown in front of her can't even see it?'

She thought for a moment, then suddenly realized: could it be that because the missing faces of the figures in the oil painting were so obvious, the Little Girl with a Crown didn't even consider this a piece of information that needed to be discovered?

Luo Yuejian immediately wanted to curl her toes in embarrassment.

She had worked so hard, struggling to come up with information just to fool people, and it wasn't even taken seriously...

Luo Yuejian couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that she was indeed still a newbie, and there was simply no way to compare herself with these highly intelligent, experienced veteran players.

But at this moment, if she were asked to come up with another clue on the fly, she wouldn't be able to do it.

Therefore, Luo Yuejian had no choice but to be shameless. She was too embarrassed to speak at this moment, so she bit the bullet, walked over to the wall where the giant oil painting was hanging, and pointed directly at the face at the very bottom.

Her gesture was just casual, but she didn't expect that when her hand touched that face, the paint on it was wiped off instantly.

Luo Yuejian: ? What the hell? What kind of shoddy work is this? The paint can actually be wiped off? Was this painted just yesterday?

She was completely bewildered herself, yet the eyes of the Little Girl with a Crown suddenly lit up.

She trotted over to Luo Yuejian's side, also rubbed the position of the face on the oil painting with her hand, and also got a handful of white paint.

She couldn't help but look at Luo Yuejian, her tone filled with absolute amazement: "That's amazing! How did you discover it? No, wait, how did you realize that the faces on this oil painting were actually artificially covered up?"

Under normal circumstances, when faced with such a giant oil painting, other people's thoughts would either be that the content of the painting might hide some mystery, or that there might be some hidden door or Secret Room behind the painting.

These blank faces blended perfectly with the oil painting, looking like a very common artistic technique.

No one would ever think that the paint on these people's faces was actually applied later by someone, likely to cover up key information.

And Luo Yuejian was actually able to peel back the layers in such a short time and discover the secret on the giant oil painting; this level of observation and attentiveness was truly hard to match.

Luo Yuejian's inner thoughts were: 'Holy crap, these faces were actually painted on later? Which bastard is so devious?'

'If you're going to be devious, fine, but how the hell can the paint on an oil painting be wiped off? Isn't this just deliberately leaving a flaw waiting for someone to find it?'

'It hurts others and yourself!'

The Little Girl with a Crown had already stepped forward and was actively wiping away the paint covering the faces on the oil painting; Luo Yuejian could only grit her teeth and follow suit.

Luo Yuejian was relatively tall, so it was actually quite easy for her to wipe the paint off the oil painting. The Little Girl with a Crown had a harder time, almost having to stand on tiptoes to reach the faces at the very bottom.

However, even so, because she was deliberately stalling, Luo Yuejian's speed at wiping off the paint on the faces was not as fast as the Little Girl with a Crown's.

By the time the Little Girl with a Crown had finished wiping the two faces on the bottom layer, Luo Yuejian had only just finished one.

The remaining three faces were in the upper part, and based on the heights of Luo Yuejian and the Little Girl with a Crown, they couldn't reach them.

The Little Girl with a Crown said: "It seems we can't reach them. I'll go get a chair."

After saying this, she walked to the corner of the hall, preparing to bring over the spare chair there to use as a step stool.

Luo Yuejian had nothing else to do, so she stepped back two paces and stood in front of the oil painting, preparing to see what the oil painting looked like now.

She hadn't even figured anything out yet, when suddenly, the surprised voice of the Little Girl with a Crown came from behind her: "Good heavens! I think I understand!"

Luo Yuejian: ? No, what did you understand? Didn't we just finish wiping three faces?

However, the Little Girl with a Crown had already trotted over, her little face full of surprise, "These two people, these two people look so much alike!"

Luo Yuejian was taken aback, then carefully looked at the three faces that had already been wiped clean, and sure enough, discovered that two of the faces were as similar as if they had been copy-pasted.

It was just that the face on one of the portraits could clearly be seen to be quite old, while the other face was relatively young.

"Is this the Old Duke?" the Little Girl with a Crown couldn't help but ask.

Luo Yuejian thought the same; after all, among all the players, only the Old Duke was of a more advanced age.

The Little Girl with a Crown looked at Luo Yuejian and saw that Luo Yuejian had been calm all along, clearly having known everything all along.

Her expression was somewhat complex, "No wonder you didn't go get a chair. It turns out you had already realized that just by wiping away these three faces below, one could see the problem with the whole painting."

Luo Yuejian: ?

'Isn't that because you already went to get the chair a step ahead of me? Does it really take two people to fetch a chair?'

Luo Yuejian was speechless and didn't want to say anything more to the Little Girl with a Crown, so she could only pretend she didn't hear.

The Little Girl with a Crown didn't mind Luo Yuejian's attitude; this attitude was normal, wasn't it? Capable people always have personality.

However, the chair had already been brought over, and the Little Girl with a Crown didn't want to have moved the chair for nothing, "I'll still wipe away those three faces on the top of the portrait, just in case there are any other clues hidden there."

After saying this, she really took action. The Little Girl with a Crown moved very quickly, and in a short while, she had wiped away those three faces as well, but this time there were indeed no special clues.

The remaining three faces had no distinctive features at all, and one could only tell their gender.

However, this also indirectly showed that the two faces below being drawn so similarly definitely had some significance.

The Little Girl with a Crown held onto the chair to stand on the ground and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She thought, that White-haired Girl was indeed a bit too amazing.

Originally, before this round started, her thinking was the same as the previous four games: she wanted to directly eliminate other players and rely on the safety net mechanism of the Miracle Escape Live Stream Game to clear the level directly.

But after witnessing the strength of the White-haired Girl, the Little Girl with a Crown immediately dispelled her unrealistic thoughts.

Being able to survive and complete the tasks of this game round under the White-haired Girl's nose, clearing the level smoothly, was already not easy; thinking about those other things was purely courting death.

It's just... I wonder what the White-haired Girl's mission actually is?
