Chapter 1093: Chapter 510: Outmatched (Second Update)

He knew he probably wouldn’t make it to the finals, but he didn’t want Mr. Zhuge to get there either.

This event made him feel that Mr. Zhuge was a bit too eager for quick success.

Lawrence Winters clapped his hands, "Well said! Friend Quan speaks to my heart. As practitioners of Dao, we emphasize cause and effect, and also ’having no shame above, nor dishonor below,’ and being a person of the world, asking for a clear conscience. —Mr. Zhuge, do you believe you fulfilled Mrs. Fang’s request?"

"Mrs. Fang’s request was to reveal Miss Tang’s true form and stop her from interfering in her family. I believe I achieved that," Mr. Zhuge said solemnly.

"Yes, it was achieved. Mrs. Fang no longer has a family, so Miss Tang naturally cannot interfere anymore. Truly a clever method, because you’re afraid of harming the jade vase while hitting the rat, so you smash the vase first to avoid it being broken later. Is that what you mean?" Lawrence Winters turned his phone in his hand.

"...Miss Tang indeed revealed herself as a murderer. May I ask what point I didn’t achieve? As for Mrs. Fang’s family, she still has one, her husband may be gone, but she has two children, her family hasn’t disappeared."

Mr. Zhuge continued to argue, refusing to admit that he didn’t fulfill Mrs. Fang’s commission.

What he said had some logic, and indeed Mrs. Fang’s request was merely to have Miss Tang reveal her true self and leave her husband.

Literally, Miss Tang indeed left Mrs. Fang’s husband, forever.

After Mr. Zhuge finished speaking, seeing Lawrence Winters and Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan looking at each other, knowing they were speechless, he relaxed and said: "Take a look at yourselves, Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan, you took Miss Tang’s commission to have Mr. Yu ’get what he deserves,’ but what did you do?"

Lawrence Winters was inspired and immediately said, "According to Mr. Zhuge’s logic, then Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan also completed Miss Tang’s commission."

"How was it completed? I don’t know." Mr. Zhuge almost sneered, his droopy brows sunk into two flat-laying question marks.

"Mr. Yu paid with his life, isn’t that his ’getting what he deserves’?" Lawrence Winters tried his best to speak for Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan, "Although it was Miss Tang who acted, she was provoked by Mr. Yu."

"I don’t know if you saw the surveillance video on the afternoon news, but my impression is Mr. Yu isn’t the kind to speak offensively. He should be the type who, no matter the evil he does, appears upright on the surface, giving no clues."

"Yet in that surveillance, he actually said Miss Tang’s mother died like a dog... Such provocative words would anger even a mentally sound Miss Tang into doing anything against him."

Lawrence Winters paused and stressed, "For example, if someone said such a thing about my relatives, I would whip them dead, in the literal sense."

Daoist Wang understood Lawrence Winters’ meaning and immediately said, "Exactly, don’t you think Mr. Yu’s recent behavior has been unusual?"

"Are you aware he has another family, hidden for over ten years, but Miss Tang discovered it just a few days ago, on the very day Miss Tang was first caught in the psychiatric hospital."

"And today, out of character, he spoke harshly, and it was towards Miss Tang. This action contradicts his usual demeanor, do you know why?"

Daoist Wang and Daoist Quan exchanged glances and righteously said, "It’s the effect of our spell on Mr. Yu!"

In fact, the ’Tracing the Origin’ they cast on Isaac York wouldn’t affect his mental state, only make it easier for him to recall the past.

But Lawrence Winters’ implication was clear to them, not to fight was to forfeit the struggle.

Moreover, Isaac’s recollections surely influenced his change in behavior.

Mr. Zhuge glared at them and said in surprise, "...Is this possible? You can explain it this way?"

"This is the fact." Lawrence Winters took out his Big Five Emperors Coins, playing with them, "From Miss Tang’s mental state becoming abnormal, to Mr. Yu’s behavior becoming unusual, then their meeting and dispute, and finally Miss Tang killing Mr. Yu. This series of facts shows that both parties’ actions indeed resulted in this outcome."

"Neither party’s actions alone would have resulted in this."

Lawrence Winters laughed, "In this sense, you both tied."

Mr. Zhuge’s face turned livid, coldly smiling at Lawrence Winters, saying: "Fortunately, Daoist Wen is just a contestant, not a judge. Otherwise, with such judging, we’d all be spitting blood."
