Chapter 967: They Both Think The Other Is a Fool

"Whether it was a mask you bought yourself or one you gave to me, how could you not recognize it?"

Lin Sanjiu sat cross-legged on the floor, her head lowered. Upon hearing those words, she suddenly raised her head.

"I bought a series of masks of \'unremarkable middle-aged men.\' They were thick and layered, so when I hold them in my hand, they all look similar. How can I remember each one?"

Bohemia, having taken off her mask, pouted, her face filled with disbelief. But she couldn\'t come up with a retort for a while. After a moment of hesitation, she forcefully threw the mask against the wall. "Why did you have to buy such an ugly piece of junk?"

Sigh.

Since recognizing each other, Bohemia had been filled with anger, joy, and grievances. She had so many emotions to vent. Just the attempt to appease her was a daunting task. After several minutes, Lin Sanjiu still hadn\'t managed to ask her how she had infiltrated the Ocean Voyager.

Lin Sanjiu sighed inwardly and gestured for Bohemia to sit down. "...Tell me what happened. You should tell me now."

Bohemia obviously felt that it would be a long story and made several attempts to start but became incoherent. She wiped her teary eyes caused by excitement and then spread her hands in front of Lin Sanjiu. "I\'m hungry. I\'ll eat while I talk!"

Like a vending machine that only dispenses items when you put in a coin.

After tearing open a pack of coconut slices, Bohemia finally regained some composure. She stuffed a handful into her mouth and mumbled, "I was just talking about Silvan leaving. He probably went to find you, and he left behind some nonsense. Then, I was taken into the prison by the suspension pod, and I found that I couldn\'t make any sound..."

"Someone tampered with the food you ate," Lin Sanjiu said, looking at the snacks in Bohemia\'s hand. "Was it the Hairy Brothers?"

Judging from Bohemia\'s eating habits, it seemed she hadn\'t learned her lesson.

"I suspect so too. I haven\'t seen those two brothers since I escaped from the prison... Then I entered the Astral Plane," she mumbled with food in her mouth, describing what a jerk Octo was, before suddenly remembering something. "Oh yeah, someone is chasing Magus."

Lin Sanjiu almost jumped up from her spot.

"Magus?" She grabbed Bohemia\'s knee, "She\'s still in the Astral Plane?"

"Ah," Bohemia was startled, "Y-yes..."

After a somewhat disjointed conversation, Bohemia finally gave a rough explanation of Magus\'s current situation. Lin Sanjiu furrowed her brow, unable to figure out who would target Magus. Finally, she sighed, a bit helpless, and waved her hand, "Continue."

"I heard someone being locked up next door. I thought it might be Puppeteer. I pounded on the door, and the person next door seemed unable to come out somehow. They were standing outside my door." Bohemia frowned, "When the door opened, I found out that it was indeed Puppeteer."

As Bohemia told her story, Lin Sanjiu\'s heart went up and down like a roller coaster. Sometimes high, sometimes low. When she heard that Puppeteer wouldn\'t stop talking, she couldn\'t help but close her eyes and let out a sigh of relief.

It was Luther\'s ability, without a doubt.

Not only could he transform people into another appearance, but he could also transform them into the appearance of the person their target "thought of." Perhaps because Bohemia thought that Puppeteer might be outside the door, she really saw Puppeteer when the door opened.

Pretending to be locked up next door and then finding a way to escape had indeed won her trust—although it didn\'t last long.

"Not only did they transform people into Puppeteer, but they also transformed into you once. They must have thought that I would foolishly run over to identify them," Bohemia said with a sense of pride.

"That was me."

The two of them stared at each other for a moment.

In Bohemia\'s subsequent narration, she occasionally added a sentence like "Why are you so stupid." Lin Sanjiu endured without interrupting her until Bohemia mentioned picking up the vacuum cleaner. To prevent any tangents and to finish what needed to be said, it was necessary to tell a little white lie.

"Didn\'t you see who took the vacuum cleaner?" Bohemia, who had tied her long hair messily behind her head, glanced at Lin Sanjiu in reproach.

"No..."

To avoid getting sidetracked and to finish the conversation as soon as possible, this was a necessary lie.

"It really just disappeared all of a sudden!" Bohemia said resentfully, "As if it was taken away—"

She suddenly stopped talking and turned her gaze toward Lin Sanjiu.

Oh no.

Lin Sanjiu raised her face, pretending not to understand the suspicion in Bohemia\'s eyes, and calmly said, "I spent over two days on the Ocean Voyager, and no one bothered me. It indicates that the Chicky brothers may not have left any hair on this ship. Let\'s forget about the vacuum cleaner; continue with your story."

Bohemia squinted her eyes at Lin Sanjiu, her face filled with such strong skepticism that it almost seemed like a dark cloud hovering above her. However, she was eventually convinced and replied, "...That\'s not necessarily true. Weren\'t you on the ship in your true form? They didn\'t need hair to know where you were. If they didn\'t bother you, it might just mean that the timing wasn\'t right yet."

Is that so?

What could be the right timing?

Lin Sanjiu hadn\'t considered this possibility. She had always assumed that when X discovered her on the ship, she had coincidentally put on the mask and disappeared from everyone\'s sight.

"After losing the vacuum cleaner, I felt unsafe," Bohemia said confidently. "So I thought of Puppeteer."

The reason she took Puppeteer along was solely to use him as an amulet and a shield. Lin Sanjiu rubbed her temples and couldn\'t help but ask, "Weren\'t you supposed to go back a long time ago? Those people clearly said they would move the boxes \'tomorrow night.\' Based on the timeline, that was already yesterday..."

"Are you even listening to me?" Bohemia sounded even more resolute than Lin Sanjiu, showing no sign of guilt for leaving Puppeteer in the box for two days. "When I first came aboard the Ocean Voyager, how was I supposed to know my way around? I didn\'t know where to find a map, got lost, and couldn\'t find the cargo elevator. Isn\'t that normal? Besides, I thought to myself, even if I move the boxes downstairs, it\'s still within this damn spaceship. He won\'t be lost!"

"Okay, okay. What happened next? Did you find him? Where is he now?"

Bohemia pursed her lips and looked around the utility room for a moment, seemingly unable to focus her gaze on Lin Sanjiu\'s eyes.

She grabbed the tips of her hair, hesitated, and stammered, "Well... um, he\'s lost now."
