Damn it...
Although Qi Nian didn't know how Bai Yanliang was deducing, if he missed some key information, even with a complete logic, he wouldn't get the real answer.
Qi Nian couldn't care about Bai Yanliang's instructions and immediately rushed out of the basement; she needed to help him!
Song Que might be the protagonist of the Fog Gathering script, and his emotions have been affected.
But Bai Yanliang is the protagonist of the fierce ghost script, so he must have been affected too!
However, perhaps because Bai Yanliang's emotions were too subtle, the slight changes in his emotions and the minor deviations in his behavior logic weren't noticed by anyone.
Bai Yanliang might have deduced most of the truth, but he missed the most crucial point.
The protagonist isn't Song Que, it's him!
This outcome also exposed Bai Yanliang's greatest weakness.
His upbringing was too singular, and all his knowledge came from books.
