Arc 3: Humanoid Village
Chapter 78

After hearing the systems report, Xu Ziyue fell into thought with his head against the wall for a long time.

So to say….The NPC data making up the doll accidentally had some of Sun Mo’s data mixed in and those memories of his is something similar to a virus…..

But because it didn’t interfere with the progress of the game, the virus wasn’t removed, and this was why the doll was like this…?

Now that he thought about it, the doll did indeed throw himself off the shelf when he saw him the first time and took the initiative to fall into his arms.

But Xu Ziyue didn’t know how much of Sun Mo’s memory the doll may have. In fact, he hadn’t been with Sun Mo very long, so he probably doesn’t have all the memories?

Then does the doll also know that he would eventually leave?

But those things were not too important. The most important matter was how he could prove to the doll that he liked him more, not Sun Mo.

Xu Ziyue recalled Mo Mo’s pitiful look and felt guilty inside for a while…..They’re both clearly beauties yet why do they want to ‘kill each other’??

Xu Ziyue was put into a difficult situation.

He returned to the room in the basement and then said a few words to the doll before moving over to study some of the gadgets. He then examined some of the fabrics in the room used for making doll clothes and went to bed when he started to feel sleepy.

During this entire time, he was thinking about how he could prove himself.

When he woke up, Xu Ziyue realised that he was also worrying over this in his dream.

But his dream was very different, and a little strange.

For example, in the dream he became someone who loved Little Mo Mo very much but was not trusted by Little Mo Mo whose personality was cold and distrustful. The Xu Ziyue in his dream wasn’t satisfied by this and continued to press on until Little Mo Mo asked Xu Ziyue to prove that he truly loved him.

Xu Ziyue sat on the bed clutching his head with both hands. His mood continued to plummet.

But he couldn’t prove it even in his dream!

Because he woke up from it!

Xu Ziyue deeply doubted his character. He was almost there……

But he couldn’t use ‘death’ to prove it. Weren’t there many TV dramas about people who are not afraid to risk their lives to prove it? But if he died, would he get the response he wanted? It wasn’t a realistic option.

There were also others who would resort to anything for their loved ones, eradicating everything that was in their way. Even if they’re friends or relatives, it didn’t matter!

Xu Ziyue thought about it………Did that mean that he needed to do something to Yan Shi and them?

But Yan Shi……Jin’er gave Yan Shi and them a doll to grant them eternal life. It would no longer be the case if they died and, what’s more, Xu Ziyue also couldn’t do it.

So that was also not an option.

Then what did the doll want him to prove?

To him….what was it that he wanted the most?

Xu Ziyue looked at the doll who had finished rearranging his clothes and was in the middle of climbing into his arms. He sighed and picked the doll up.

“You really make me worry……”

After waking up, Xu Ziyue fixed himself up and planned to go eat something. It couldn’t be helped. He could only remain idle like these even at such a critical moment in the game.

Eating when hungry, sleeping when tired…….In any case, he didn’t need to worry about being scared or frightened and was at least in a better position compared to Yan Shi and the others so Xu Ziyue was content and grateful.

Thank goodness he wasn’t part of the escape game next door.

Xu Ziyue didn’t run into Yan Shi and the others when he went back to the hotel to eat this time and even Jin’er didn’t show up. Xu Ziyue guessed that it was probably because he had angered Jin’er last time…….

Halfway through eating his meal alone in the kitchen, Xu Ziyue who was still feeling touched that Jin’er was considerate enough to leave food for him suddenly heard Guan Chengze’s voice!

Xu Ziyue shot up with the doll preparing to go over, but he retracted the foot he had stepped out with.

Based on the volume of Guan Chengze’s current voice, it would surely attract Yan Shi and the others over too. It was too risky going out at a time like this.

And so, Xu Ziyue started eavesdropping for the second time.

But because the kitchen was still some distance away from the hotel entrance, Xu Ziyue didn’t hear very clearly.

He could only hear Guan Chengze’s shouts……He seemed to be in a lot of pain?

Xu Ziyue’s back was completely pressed up against the wall as he slowly, bit by bit, shuffled closer to the hall.

Standing next to Xu Ziyue’s feet was the doll who only reached Xu Ziyue’s knee. He had copied Xu Ziyue’s action and had similarly stretched out both his arms as he stealthily moved along the wall but because his legs were short, it looked quite difficult for the doll.

When Xu Ziyue looked back and saw this scene, he almost couldn’t suppress his laughter.

But it was only ‘almost’.

Xu Ziyue continued to quietly approach the hall until he was able to successfully hear Guan Chengze’s voice as well as Yan Shi and Hu Beijia’s voice who had just hurried downstairs.

Yan Shi who had hurried downstairs the moment he heard him was greeted by Guan Chengze whose whole body was completely covered up, “What happened to you?”

Guan Chengze didn’t answer Yan Shi’s question. He just used his eyes that were the only parts of his body exposed to look around the hotel, “Where is Xu Ziyue? Where is Xu Ziyue?”

He asked that question twice in a row. Hu Beijia who quietly stepped back answered, “He has already run off.”

Guan Chengze’s eye that was constantly rolling around stilled on Hu Beijia. He stared at her so hard, Hu Beijia almost thought Guan Chengze’s eyes would fall out.

At this moment, Hu Beijia finally noticed Guan Chengze’s dark eyebags as well as his sunken eyes.

Guan Chengze asked, “Where did he go?”

The Guan Chengze at this moment no longer made the painful, muffled shouts Xu Ziyue heard earlier. Apart from his questionable appearance, the Guan Chengze currently standing in front of Yan Shi and Hu Beijia seemed completely normal and could talk properly.

Hu Beijia did her best to ignore Guan Chengze’s strangeness, “We are also looking for him. After he ran off, Lu Xiuyang met some trouble.” Lu Xiuyang’s trouble naturally wasn’t because of Xu Ziyue but Guan Chengze didn’t know about that so they could say anything they wanted to.

Guan Chengze hugged his arms and his fingers couldn’t’ stop scratching at it. His eyes were completely bloodshot and a little vacant, “That doll he has is strange, it’s very strange. It’s not a normal doll! We have to find him or find Xu Ziyue.”

Yan Shi tried to elicit some more information out of Guan Chengze, “Find them? And then?”

Hu Beijia understood Yan Shi’s intentions and said, “And that doll of Xu Ziyue’s…..No, shouldn’t it be more accurate to say that all the dolls are strange? There are many of them in the museum and there are also more in Jin’er’s room. They just all seem a little strange so how much stranger can it be?”

Guan Chengze shook his head, “I took, no, I stole the other dolls but it was useless…..Only that one can!” Guan Chengze grinned widely but because his whole body was practically all wrapped up, Hu Beijia and Yan Shi didn’t see Guan Chengze’s lips rise to a terrifying height.

Right now……he couldn’t be in a worse situation.
