Chapter 412 – Counting Vote
The expressions of Zhao Yebai, Gui Zu, and Qiao Fan instantly changed when they saw the imaginary stone in Yang Mengli's palm. Unfortunately, they couldn't do anything to prevent her from activating it.
With a buzz, a curtain of purple light appeared in front of everyone. A scene where Gui Zu and Qiao Fan rushed toward Zhao Yebai excitedly was displayed on it. Everyone could hear the three of them admit they were werewolves through the content. Not to mention the abnormally high power they had shown. There couldn't be more apparent than this.
Instantaneously, the villagers and doctors looked at Zhao Yebai while silently confirming their votes in their minds.
Zhao Yebai's face became ugly. This was entirely out of his expectation. He had clearly checked on Yang Mengli back then and found nothing unusual. How did she manage to do it without him knowing?
It was not only him, but Yun Lintian also unaware of this. Yang Mengli's intelligence could not be underestimated at all.
Yang Mengli smiled coldly and asked. "What now, Zhao Yebai? Are you going to quibble again? Everyone here is not a fool. They wouldn't easily get fooled for a second time."
Yang Mengli's remarks served as a warning for the villagers and doctors. If they still chose to believe in Zhao Yebai, they would be completely beyond stupid.
"This is a lie! You made this up by yourself. Everyone, don't be fooled by her." Zhao Yebai's mind was in a mess. If he hadn't said anything at this moment, he would undoubtedly get trial soon and end up losing his life.
"A lie?" At this moment, Hua Wanru suddenly came forward. She pointed at the purple imaginary stone on Yang Mengli's palm and continued. "Take a good look at it. Is this an ordinary imaginary stone?"
Everyone carefully looked at the imaginary stone, and someone with knowledge quickly shouted. "That's the Moon Imaginary Stone. It cannot be destroyed or trampled. Let alone forging a false image onto it!"
No doubt about it. Everyone didn't question whether it was true but turned to look at Zhao Yebai as if waiting to see what he was going to say now.
Zhao Yebai's face turned pale. He knew he was finished now.
"Since everyone has finished with your vote, I will announce the result now." Before Zhao Yebai could say anything, Hongyue clapped her hands and said loudly.
She scanned the crowd with a playful smile until her gaze stopped at Zhao Yebai, causing the latter's heart to skip a beat.
"Congratulations to Mister Zhao Yebai. You are the most voted person by a total of forty-seven votes. And the second rank is Mister Yun Lintian, who is accounting for twenty-seven votes." Hongyue announced. "Please welcome Mister Zhao Yebai to the stage."
As her voice fell, Zhao Yebai's entire body was instantly enveloped with an irresistible force. In the next moment, he involuntarily flew toward the lynching pole and landed before it. No matter how he exerted his strength, he couldn't break free from the force around him and could only stand there honestly.
While everyone paid attention to Zhao Yebai, Yun Lintian was pondering how he got twenty-seven votes. Out of seventy-four people in this place, twenty were counted as werewolves, and the rest were villagers and doctors. That meant seven people on his side had voted for him… Who were they?
Lin Xinyao, Yang Mengli, and Hua Wanru were also aware of this. They stared at the crowd attentively, trying to find some clues through their expressions. Unfortunately, they were unable to find anything in the end.
"You're lucky this time." Suddenly, Wang Jue's voice rang out in Yun Lintian's mind.
When Yun Lintian turned his attention to Wang Jue, he saw the latter smile coldly at him while making a cutting-throat gesture. Seeing this, Yun Lintian didn't have any reaction and turned his head to Zhao Yebai.
Wang Jue was furious when he saw Yun Lintian ignore him, but he couldn't do anything at the moment.
"You have one minute to defend yourself. You can start now." Hongyue crossed her arms before her flat chest while looking at Zhao Yebai interestingly.
Zhao Yebai's face flushed red in anger. Since it reached this point, he didn't have to hold back anymore. He turned to look at Wang Jue and roared. "Hurry up and think of a way to help me!"
The crowd followed Zhao Yebai's gaze and saw Wang Jue standing there. Listening to Zhao Yebai's words, without a doubt, Wang Jue was definitely a werewolf.
Wang Jue frowned while scolding Zhao Yebai inwardly. His face turned cold as he said. "Zhao Yebai, if you want to die, you can go by yourself. What's the point of flaming me?" He paused for a moment and turned to Yun Lintian. "Is he telling you to do it?"
Immediately, the crowd turned to look at Yun Lintian in doubt. It was at this moment; they remembered Yun Lintian was ranked second on the voting… Why did he get so many votes?
Facing everyone's doubtful gaze, Yun Lintian remained silent with no intention of defending himself since it was unnecessary.
However, Hua Wanru was different. She couldn't tolerate this and said aloud. "What's with that gaze of yours? It is clearly the werewolves trying to get rid of Brother Yun." She coldly swept her gaze over the crowd and continued. "Don't let me know who are the seven people that voted for him. Do you think you can survive by joining the werewolves' side? Heh, stupid."
Hearing this, the crowd instantly realized that was the case. They glanced at each other vigilantly, trying to find who the traitors were.
While everyone was looking at each other, they heard Zhao Yebai roar madly. "Shut up! I can tell everyone clearly. Wang Jue is a werewolf. He makes himself a leader and tells us to vote for Yun Lintian. Because of what? Of course, because he is afraid of him. All the villagers and doctors listen to me. If you want to win this game, you have to protect Yun Lintian. He's your only hope to deal with Wang Jue."
Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao were surprised upon hearing this. What did Zhao Yebai try to do by suddenly exposing Wang Jue? Invoking sympathy?
