“Surely you don’t know her?”
“She is Shen Zhiyi.”
Su Yinwan spoke almost by reflex. “Impossible!”
“If she is Shen Zhiyi, then who is she?”
Shen Zhaodi, whom she was pointing at, blinked innocently. “I’m Shen Zhaodi.”
“You’re not Shen Zhiyi?!”
“How could I possibly be Shen Zhiyi?”
“Are we not going to keep exploring? We’ve come this far. If we go deeper, we should be able to uncover the hidden secret, right?” Jeff shouted as he launched a suppressive slaughter against the last Blood Moon Bat, seemingly showing off his precise control.
Su Xingli picked up a glass of champagne. Whenever someone offered a toast, she gently clinked glasses on Bo Jinshen’s behalf.
Still puzzled, Jing Zhao decided to get a proper night’s rest. After tomorrow’s unified examination, she would see whether that punishment room would appear again.
“Why have you stopped?” The principal wore a mocking smile. His five fingers flew through the air, and under his command, the player continued attacking in a twisted, grotesque posture.

The horror game had survived for so long and kept so many players tight-lipped partly because of the Puppet Guild.
By the end, Yuan Yuan, who had originally meant to ease the atmosphere, had worked herself into a fury and burst into a torrent of curses.
Hearing Old Master Shen say this, Jiang Ran did not refuse in the slightest. She accepted it openly.
Fortunately, the passage was wide enough. Otherwise, she feared that Youyou might get stuck inside, unable to go up or down.
There were cracks all around the house, and the wind poured in through every one of them. It had practically become a meeting place for winds from every direction.
He clasped his hands together. When Jing Zhao remained silent, he had no idea what else to talk about, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into a strange hush.
What met her eyes was a post Bai Huazui had uploaded to Weibo just one minute earlier. It contained only six terse words.
Mu Xin sat perfectly still. Then, as if she had heard the greatest joke in the world, she began to laugh uproariously, even laughing herself to tears.
In any case, the Yu family had certainly not come here with good intentions. Judging by the way they had left in disarray—and by Boss Qi’s triumphant expression, like that of a strutting peacock—it was obvious that the Yu family had gained nothing.
Because of the mutation, Xiao Mo and Ming Yuyue’s rigid bodies had returned to normal. By then, however, both had already lost consciousness and lay pressed against each other, utterly unaware of what was happening around them.
Once it was over, Ye Xiao immediately brought out an assortment of exquisite pastries. Their appearance alone was enough to make one’s mouth water; the fragrance they gave off made everyone nearby start swallowing hard, especially Li Mengchan.

The object was cinnabar-red and invisible to anyone without special abilities. Yet while no one else in the Li household could see it, the Li family’s third son, Li Qingyun, was able to see the blood-red object in the well water.
“What exactly happened last night?” Yu Silan sighed helplessly and asked once more about the previous night.
“It’s that good?” If obtaining this ability required only seeing ghosts, Qi Shaoyan felt he might be willing to give it a try.
Given Ye Xiao’s situation, he obviously could not use the same move to its full extent. He still needed to adapt. After piercing the field mouse through the eye, he immediately withdrew his sword. Blood sprayed wildly, splashing onto another mouse.
“Looks like you’ve truly found happiness. I can see your joy in your eyes. My congratulations, my friend.” The boss’s face was radiant with delight.
“Damn scorpion spirit!” Cai Ning cursed without thinking. She raised her hand, intending to throw the clip—and the scorpion stinger along with it—into the trash can. She hated that stinger so much that her teeth ached, yet she could do nothing to it, and the helplessness infuriated her.
What Hu Qian had mentioned was one point. There was another as well: there were simply too many powerful people here. If anything went wrong, he would be unable to take responsibility.
It could be said that, throughout those two minutes, the more than two thousand people present experienced an overwhelming shock.
