Chapter 762 - 762 762 Everyone's Fate
762: Chapter 762: Everyone’s Fate 762: Chapter 762: Everyone’s Fate Thus the team investigating the special events in the ancient forest set off once again.
When Zhuo Hang and Su Hui, with Gu Fan in tow, arrived at the special-use airport, the other team members were left flabbergasted.
Liu Hui was the first to step forward, questioning, “Captain, what’s going on?”
Zhuo Hang explained, “These are friends of Su Hui.
They’ve helped her investigate various matters before.
They’re joining us this time, and I’ve already obtained approval from our superiors.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Hui seemed perplexed, “Captain, this isn’t child’s play.
Look how young they all are.”
“I know this isn’t a game.
Please don’t question my judgment.” Zhuo Hang walked away after finishing his sentence, leaving Liu Hui to glance at the friendly Gu Fan and the doubt-inspiring Lu Yi, muttering, “I have no idea why they’re here.”
Shi Hao was the first to walk up and shake hands with Gu Fan and the others, even showcasing his fortune-telling system and offering to divine everyone’s fortunes for the day.
Yan Bing didn’t so much as utter a word throughout, exhibiting an indifference, as if she wasn’t a part of the team.
Before they set off, Su Hui emphasized several times, “This is your first investigation like this.
I hope you’ll follow my orders and stay within given bounds.”
“Sure, no problem.
I’m most obedient.
Anyone who disobeys you is a puppy.” Lu Yi’s affable promise and his amusing words raised several laughs, easing the tense atmosphere.
Suddenly, Lu Yi had a thought, “Do you think we’ll bump into Ouyang Jin this time?”
Gu Fan shook his head, “Not likely, we don’t need a guide this time.
Plus, the primitive forest is not a tourist spot.
We’re not going on an adventure; we probably won’t come across Ouyang Jin.”
Despite the speaker’s nonchalance, the listener read into his words.
Liu Hui couldn’t help but become suspicious that this bunch might not be as simple as he thought.
Liu Hui noticed Su Hui talking with Gu Fan, causing him to wonder where Su Hui had spent her three long holidays.
What had she experienced, and why was she chosen?
Was this so-called adventure related to Su Hui’s long holidays?
Liu Hui’s curiosity about Su Hui, Gu Fan, and the others grew, and he decided to pay more attention to them in the future.
They all quickly boarded the plane, finding their seats.
Su Hui, Gu Fan, Qian Ye, Gu Ling, and Lu Yi sat together, making it seem like Su Hui was aligned more with Gu Fan, instead of Liu Hui.
Shi Hao happily pulled out his fortune-telling system again and calculated everyone’s daily fortunes, much to everyone’s amusement.
The results were quite varied.
Lu Yi’s fortune, in particular, was dreadful, dragging the fortunes of his companions down with him.
People started to believe in Shi Hao’s fortune-telling system.
The only unsatisfied one was Lu Yi who thought the system was a sham with no scientific basis.
He even wanted to smash Shi Hao’s computer, but was stopped by the others.
Next was Gu Ling’s fortune.
Shi Hao was astounded.
He had never seen such a fortunate person.
It seemed as though good luck would always be at his side.
Liu Hui had always trusted Shi Hao’s fortune-telling system.
According to the system’s calculations, their team included one jinx and one lucky star, which made Liu Hui feel their team was far from simple.
Then it was Qian Ye’s turn.
However, he had given the Eight Characters of Lin Xi’s horoscope.
The result shown on the computer screen immediately weighed everyone’s hearts down: fatal beauty.
“What the hell does that mean?
Is your freaking fortune-telling system really accurate or not?” griped Lu Yi, clearly upset.
Shi Hao was taken aback by the result and felt somewhat guilty.
Gu Fan’s face was as ugly as it could be.
Despite constantly reminding himself that the system had no scientific basis, he still felt restless.
“I’m sorry.
I didn’t mean for this to happen.
My fortune-telling system is not always accurate.” Shi Hao tried to explain.
But inside, Su Hui knew that Shi Hao’s system had never been wrong before.
The last time, when the special event investigation team went to look into the disappearances in the ancient forest, Shi Hao’s fortune-telling system had accurately predicted trouble for Su Hui, while everyone else remained unscathed.
As it turned out, Su Hui indeed ran into trouble, while others, despite visiting the haunted village, faced no harm at all.
Neither Su Hui nor Gu Fan wanted the prediction of ‘fatal beauty’ to come true for Lin Xi.
Just as Shi Hao began to put his laptop away, Gu Fan calmly requested, “Could you calculate my fortune too?”
“O…
okay…” Stammering, Shi Hao typed in Gu Fan’s Eight Characters.
The fortune-telling system churned for a long while but failed to yield any result.
Surprised, Shi Hao began to think that there was an issue with his system.
Nearly unable to wait any longer, Shi Hao rebooted his laptop, input Gu Fan’s Eight Characters again, but still, it was of no avail.
Stubbornly, Shi Hao entered other people’s Eight Characters into the system and it worked immediately.
“I don’t believe it.
This is impossible!” Shi Hao entered Gu Fan’s Eight Characters again, but still couldn’t get a result.
Yan Bing, Hu Hu, and Liu Hui stared at Gu Fan in astonishment, unable to comprehend why their ordinary teammate was causing such unease.
Shi Hao could only explain, “There might be a bug in the code for my fortune-telling system.
I’ll have to check it carefully.”
The team accepted this explanation reluctantly.
Gu Fan remained quiet, expression grave, leaving everyone in suspense about his thoughts.
“I’m going to grab a drink.” Zhuo Hang got up and walked away.
Seeing this, Liu Hui quickly followed and cornered Zhuo Hang in a secluded space.
“Captain, can you tell me what’s really going on with these people?”
“Now isn’t the right time for you to know.
All you need to do is trust them.
They might even be the ones to save your life when it counts.” Zhuo Hang’s words bore heavy implications, causing Liu Hui to become even more agitated.
The more Zhuo Hang avoided giving a direct answer, the more curious Liu Hui became, the more he wanted to know.
Liu Hui continued to observe Su Hui and Gu Fan from his corner, considering the pair to be the most critical among them.
