This Actor Is Full Of Tricks

Just after leaving the school, Lin Jue saw the strange duo from yesterday. They were hiding in the shade of a tree, still dressed in their tightly wrapped attire.

They also noticed Lin Jue. The two exchanged a glance, and one of them stepped forward.

"Hey, you, the model," the man called out to Lin Jue, who was preparing to leave. "Didn't you say you were working as a model for the sculpture department?"

Lin Jue feigned surprise, as if he had just noticed him, and said with exaggerated astonishment, "Bro… what a coincidence, we meet again."

The man took out a photo from his pocket. "Have you seen this person before? He's a student in the sculpture department."

The photo was of Bi Zheng. Lin Jue didn't know where this person had gotten Bi Zheng's photo.

"Indeed, just as I guessed, New World really wants to capture Bi Zheng."

Lin Jue brought his face close to the photo, carefully examining it for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "Bro, um, I haven't seen… this person…"

Then, he seemed to remember something, "Why does this person look… look like he has some kind of illness?"

"This morning, I heard the sculpture students… they said that a student with cerebral palsy dropped out of school before, is that him?"

He raised his head, looking at the man with a puzzled expression. "Bro, why are you looking for him?"

Cerebral palsy?

This was indeed a characteristic the higher-ups had mentioned.

But this person dropped out of school?

The man's eyes flickered. Lin Jue's expression didn't seem to be lying, and this guy's timid appearance probably wouldn't dare to deceive him.

He suddenly felt terrible. The person they were supposed to capture was no longer at the school.

He thought he had landed a good deal, but it turned out to be a wasted trip.

"That's none of your business." The man put the photo away and hurried back to his companion. The two lowered their heads and whispered to each other. Before long, they left one after the other.

After the two had walked far away, Lin Jue walked into the bus stop.

This simple lie could only delay them for a little while. These two guys would figure it out sooner or later, but delaying them even a little was good. He didn't want Bi Zheng to be captured by them while he was away from school.

If Bi Zheng was turned into a ghoul by New World, this script might not be able to continue filming.

[Scene 3: You encountered two people with strange behavior outside the school. They are very interested in that special student. Not only them, but you are also curious as to why that student underwent such a transformation. You decide to go to the exhibition hall where he used to display his work… ]

Even without the scene reminder, Lin Jue was already planning to go to the exhibition hall that the student had mentioned.

The exhibition hall was located in Sanjiang City's largest art museum. Although Bi Zheng's works were no longer in that exhibition hall, the person in charge at the time should still be there. He wanted to ask about the situation.

Thirty minutes later, Lin Jue arrived at the Sanjiang Art Museum. This art museum covered several thousand square meters and had three floors, with various categories of exhibition halls, such as painting, photography, installation art, and so on.

The sculpture exhibition hall was located on the second floor. Walking up the stairs, one could see various sculptures displayed behind the glass doors, bizarre and varied, including all kinds of human bodies, flowers, trees, and animals.

Not only that, but there were also photos of sculptures hanging on the walls. These were all works that had been exhibited in this exhibition hall, and there were written descriptions below the photos, stating the sculptor and the background of the creation.

Lin Jue's gaze lingered on a sculpture photo. The name of the creator of the photo was none other than Bi Zheng.

The photo was of a realistic sculpture of a man's head. Just one glance made Lin Jue admire Bi Zheng's sculpting skills from the bottom of his heart. The man in the photo had clear facial features and a lifelike expression.

If he wasn't sure that this was a sculpture, Lin Jue would have mistaken it for Bi Zheng having actually cut off a man's head, then coated it with plaster and taken a photo.

Judging from this photo alone, Bi Zheng was definitely very talented. If he studied for another two or three years, he would definitely become a famous master in the sculpture world.

"Honey!" A loud shout interrupted Lin Jue's thoughts. He looked in the direction of the sound.

There were very few people in the exhibition hall now. He immediately saw a middle-aged woman with exquisite makeup, carrying a lunch box in her hand.

She should be here to deliver lunch to the staff here.

Lin Jue only glanced at her and was about to look away, but the next moment, as the woman's husband appeared, his brow furrowed.

The woman's husband was wearing a black shirt, looked to be in his early thirties, and had a work badge hanging around his neck. One could vaguely see the words "Person in Charge."

These were all normal, but the key was that this man's appearance was exactly the same as the sculpture in the photo!

Was this man Bi Zheng's sculpture model?

Moreover, this man had such heavy dark energy, it was no less than the Flying Head Ghoul!

This man was a ghoul!

A ghoul even had a wife? And he even became the person in charge of this exhibition hall, becoming a working horse?

Lin Jue took out his phone, pretending to be watching a video, but his eyes were constantly glancing at the couple, eavesdropping on their conversation.

"I made you your favorite lettuce." The woman handed the lunch box to the man and smoothed out his shirt. "No matter how busy you are at work, you have to take care of your body and remember to eat on time."

"Thank you, honey." The man had a smile on his face, appearing very happy.

But Lin Jue was an actor. He could tell at a glance that this smile was stiff, and that happy expression was also acted out. The acting was very clumsy, not even as good as those actors who had just entered the industry in his previous life.

It felt like a puppet, trying hard to play the role of a human.

"Does this ghoul still have reason? Does he want to integrate into human life? So he gets married and works according to human habits?"

Lin Jue secretly observed. After the woman gave a few instructions, she turned and left.

Until the woman left, the smile on the man's face completely disappeared. With a stiff face, he opened the lunch box. The green lettuce mixed with stir-fried meat covered the rice. One could smell the fragrance from far away.

But the man poured the entire bowl of rice into the nearby trash can.

Something's not right!

"The woman just said that lettuce was this man's favorite food, why would he throw away his favorite food?"

"No appetite? Doesn't want to eat? But there's no need to throw it away, right? He could have told his wife."

Lin Jue's brow furrowed once again. A person's hobbies are difficult to change suddenly, unless they encounter something very big, or…

This man is no longer the husband that woman is familiar with.

He thought of Qiao Kang at the time. After that guy was polluted and controlled by the black shadow, his spirit no longer belonged to himself, and his verbal habits suddenly changed.

"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?" The man noticed Lin Jue's gaze, and a smile appeared on his face again, but this smile was still very stiff, like a puppet in a puppet show.

"Um, where's the restroom? I want to go to the restroom… I can't hold it in… ah…" Lin Jue clutched his stomach, his face pale, as if he would burst right there if he stayed for another second.

Even so, the man's smile did not change in any way, not even the slightest change in the arc. "Turn right after you go out, sir."

Not only the expression, but the speech was also like following a formula.

"Thank you." Lin Jue thanked him, ran out with his legs clamped together, and ran out of the man's blind spot. His expression returned to normal, and he quickly walked down the stairs.

Originally, he was still planning to find the person in charge to learn about Bi Zheng's situation, but now he felt that he should know why Bi Zheng suddenly changed his style.
