"Ewwww, gross."

Su Bai started ripping the layer of skin on his body with antipathy. What surprised Su Bai was that the new layer of skin was his original skin and the layer of shed skin did not seem to belong to Su Bai.

After ripping off that old skin, Su Bai discovered that the head and a few other parts of the skin were damaged badly. It was exactly like the skin he had discovered in Chen Yixin's room. Seems like it was not damaged on purpose by others since Su Bai had experienced it himself.

It could be confirmed that the skin found previously belonged to Chen Yixin. Chen Yixin could not have stolen it from another room; the possibility was too low. It was not that it was impossible, but if he needed to even consider this, it would be as if haggling for every penny.

Chen Yixin was someone who was able to shuttle between both game circles, but due to Su Bai, it was game over for her.

Su Bai couldn't help but sigh. He was thinking that Chen Yixin was standing tall and was farsighted; unfortunately she had fallen after she met him, the psycho.

What should he do holding on to this thing?

What could this hidden authority bring him?

Was it just for sightseeing?

Or did it mean anything special?

Why did Qin Yang vote for himself every time?

What message was he trying to send out?

Was it to tell the same person like him in this game circle his ident.i.ty in the other game circle?

Based on Su Bai's personal experience, when he went to that game circle, he could vote for himself on the back page even though his name and picture were not on the name list.

Vote count, head count, these relations.h.i.+ps added a lot of difficulty because one person from both sides of the game circles were able to shuttle between both. How was Dreadful Radio able to adapt to the changes in the dynamics?

Could it be that it had always been calculating while making adjustments?

Just like the food in the restaurant that was changed nonstop, all the consciousness and memories of the audiences were also refreshed?

This did not match the habit of Dreadful Radio. It liked to built a story world which could be satisfied with its own hands. Building a stage, allowing the audiences to enter and struggle continuously and make fun of them, satisfying itself by antic.i.p.ating ahead and planning carefully with every conceivable action taken into account while enjoying itself quietly.

It wasn't possible for Dreadful Radio to keep interfering with the situation; it did not match its perception of beauty.

This meant that Dreadful Radio actually had a backdoor or a plan with the continuous changes in head count, to balance out the trend of changes in the head count.

It was possible that this backdoor was the door of life of the whole story world!

d.a.m.n it, how was it done? When he went to the other side, this meant there was one additional person; the number of votes would not be the same, the number of audiences would also not be the same. Even if that fella Qin Yang who was not really noticeable by the others was also considered a head count.

Su Bai took up the unfinished alcohol from the bedside cabinet and gulped down.

The alcohol had not cleared up Su Bai's mind. It instead made him more impatient. He directly walked into the bathroom and took a cold bath.

When he walked out the bathroom and saw the mirror, his face, his hands, everything about him had major changes.

That's not right.

'Have I entered once more?'

Su Bai couldn't believe it. Were there no laws in shuttling between both games?

He couldn't control it?

When facing the mirror, Su Bai was no longer his original self; he had the looks of another person. A very ordinary face, a very ordinary hairstyle, a very ordinary young man.

Su Bai reached his own bed. The blanket was folded neatly, the bed sheets were very neat with no traces of anyone lying on it. At the same time, the bottle of alcohol by the bedside cabinet was gone.

Su Bai suddenly felt pity for Chen Yixin.

If Chen Yixin was like this at that time, shuttling between both games fighting and scheming while continuously probing things out, acting terrified and staying out of the limelight would do. But before Chen Yixin could probe anything, she had met the psycho, Su Bai.

When Su Bai was deep in thought, somebody knocked on his door.

"Hi, can I come in?"

Su Bai was a little stunned. Someone had come looking for him when he just arrived in this game circle?

Could it be that he would only appear when there was a part for him to play?

Su Bai walked over and opened the door. It was that woman who sat beside him. That woman should have just taken a bath; her hair was still wet. She was rather skinny and gave a feeling that one cannot help loving.

The woman walked in and directly sat on Su Bai's bed.

Su Bai knitted his brows. What did she want to do?

"I'm very afraid and feeling very empty inside." The woman hugged her own arms. She started sobbing as she spoke. At the same time, her pyjamas was unable to cover her huge cleavage and it was fully exposed, giving off a very peculiar bearing.

Su Bai had a sudden realization and finally understood.

"I..."

"Can you hug me?" The woman said to Su Bai.

"I..."

"Can you not speak? Just hug me? I'm not asking anything else from you and don't hope anything from you. I just want some consolation."

It was really a literary way to offer intercourse...

Su Bai sighed in his heart; the was no reason to feel disdain. She was willing to use her body at this time to gain the graces of some men to reduce the possibility of being voted. It could be considered a type of investment for self-protection.

Su Bai did not put any thought to these matters at this moment; he directly pointed to his amputated arm:

"I am short of an arm."

"I don't mind, really."

"I am gay. Sorry, it disgusts me with you acting like this." Su Bai said as he gave an att.i.tude as if he had gained some courage.

The woman immediately stood up and apologized to Su Bai. She then left Su Bai's room of her own accord. Maybe she intended to garner the good feelings from people who were unnoticeable like Su Bai. After knowing Su Bai was gay, she was afraid her actions would disgust Su Bai. It was akin to lifting a stone and slamming it on her own foot.

Su Bai touched his own nose; he was feeling helpless watching this scene. When he was about to close the door, he saw Chu Zhao who was holding a food tray pa.s.s by his room. Chu Zhao halted his steps when he saw the room door was open and Su Bai standing there.

"Heh heh, you really are amazing, staying in seclusion. There is really no need to act like so."

Of course, Su Bai understood what Chu Zhao meant; he only nodded his head. To be honest, Chu Zhao did not recognize the current him. Su Bai had not decided whether to be in contact with the people here, since his relations.h.i.+p with Chu Zhao and Aroma was extraordinary.

"I took some extra cantaloupe; do you want to eat?" Chu Zhao took a slice of cantaloupe and handed it to Su Bai.

Su Bai reached out and took it. He then opened his mouth and said, "Chu Zhao, I am Su Bai."

"Heh heh, I know you are called Qu Men. Your name and photo are on the name list."

Chu Zhao chuckled as he left.

Su Bai just stood there in a daze. His whole body was a.s.saulted by something terrifying; his whole body suddenly felt the chills.

A layer of invisible estrangement covered himself. He was able to come here but he could only be an observer; he couldn't reveal his ident.i.ty because there was a jet of power which did not allow him to do so.

If he was not allowed to do this, what should he do?

The game continued on, the number of deaths increased. d.a.m.n it, what did this voting game actually want!

Su Bai closed the door. He took a bite of the melon; it was a little sour and did not taste good.

"This Chu Zhao!" Su Bai cursed. He threw the remaining melon on the floor.

He sat by the bedside and touched his pockets out of habit. He realized he no longer had any cigarettes. He had no cigarettes under this ident.i.ty. If he wanted to smoke, he had to return to his rightful game circle.

Su Bai stretched his hand as he lied on the bed.

Chen Yixin and Qin Yang's silhouette appeared in Su Bai's mind. These two people should be the same as him.

There was no special meaning on Chen Yixin's side since she had to be careful of the people in her game circle. Qin Yang did not need such consideration; he might need to be careful of his own game circle, but there was no need to at the other game circle because the other circle would not vote for him.

"Bro, do you still have cigarettes?"

"It's still ongoing."

"Tomorrow when we see her, her skeleton will be extremely beautiful, pure, natural and sparkling just like an exquisite piece of art."

"I was overjoyed with what you did yesterday. That is why I purposely voted for her today and not you."

Recalling the very few interactions with Qin Yang, every word that Qin Yang said repeated multiple times in Su Bai's mind. Su Bai suddenly felt something was not right with his final line.

"I was overjoyed with what you did yesterday. That is why I purposely voted for her today and not you."

Qin Yang couldn't vote for Chen Yixin; he had always voted for himself! Qin Yang had one vote the last time, it was him voting for himself. The others had not noticed. It was impossible to vote for Qin Yang even if they wanted to!

But, what was the meaning of the things he said?

Why did he also want to kill Chen Yixin?

Both people from the game circles harming each other?

Su Bai hurriedly left his room. Chu Zhao was still standing next to a dustbin at the corridor eating fruits. The cantaloupe other than the one he gave Su Bai was thrown into the dustbin.

Su Bai rushed towards Chu Zhao and directly asked:

"Who had the highest number of votes last round?"

"It was Xue Ya, what's up?"

"Female?"

"Yeah, are you alright brother? I am also drunk[1]. People like you could still live until now. Now I really envy you. You do not need to continue acting, just be natural."

Su Bai turned around while ignoring Chu Zhao's teasing.

He had finally understood.

Understood the true method this game was played.

Qin Yang,

Was not dead.

He had completed his task and left the story world!

Regarding the problem of changes in number of players in the game, regarding the death of Chao Zhen, regarding the death of Qian Lan, regarding the reason why Chu Zhao and Aroma showed signs that they obviously knew each other but did not die…

Su Bai had finally understood it all.

So,

That's how it is...
