I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today

Shen MO didn’t have the patience to explain the whole situation concerning the prop to Tan Xiao.

However, this incident indeed fuelled his anger, disrupting all his original plans with a single gunshot.

Shen MO was a man who, due to his profession or personality, possessed a hint of heroism. He was willing to stand up for what was right, had a strong sense of responsibility, and a spirit of sacrifice greater than most people. But that did not mean he was a “saint”, or someone who could stand seeing death without interference.

On the contrary, he had been to the battlefield and was able to remain calm even amongst the death of thousands. He understood the cruelty of life and death!

But what he couldn’t stand was the needless sacrifice!

It was absurd!

Those people originally had ample time to take cover. However, because of the gunshot, they all lost control and madly ran through the mud, ending up as food for the frogs!

Their deaths were pointless and meaningless, akin to the lowest level of a joke!

Life shouldn’t be like this.

The world has already become so ridiculous due to the emergence of this puppet game, isn’t that enough?

Shen MO really wanted to confront Zhang Hua, but found it unnecessary in the end.

The cave was filled with snails, and it was unclear to him where Zhang Hua was hiding. Even if he found Zhang Hua, it wouldn’t change the fact that there had been heavy casualties. To add to his concern, Jin Qiu could show up at any moment, and who knew what would happen in the next round.

Shen MO silently returned to Bai Youwei’s side and leaned against a snail shell without uttering a word.

Bai Youwei studied his expression and slowly said, “Suppose that the game Zhang Hua is experiencing is the same as ours, then the prop he has should also be the same. As soon as the gun is fired, everyone within 10 meters of the shooter will run at full speed. The effect is influenced by the distance, environmental factors, and individual willpower. Since we are in an enclosed cave, echoes are easy to create. Hence even those beyond the 10-meter radius can be affected.’

After a pause, she complimented him, “Your willpower was admirable just now as you only ran a few steps before stopping.”

Her voice was soft, conveying a sense of intimacy and reassurance.

Shen MO glanced at her, feeling a strange sensation. 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝑛ℴ𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚

Did she seem a bit…too calm?

He knew that Bai Youwei was not like most people. She didn’t seem particularly scared during the “Tortoise and the Hare” game, but this time, rather than panicking, she appeared to be calm, too calm…even relaxed?

Bai Youwei suggested, “In a while, you should take shelter inside the shell. Although dealing with the frogs is a way out, it is too exhausting for you alone.

You need rest.”

Shen Mo’s gaze became a bit profound.

On the other side, Tan Xiao continued his search, swearing under his breath and insisting on searching everyone who came out of the snail shells.

The others joined him. They wouldn’t tolerate anyone in their group hiding a gun!

They didn’t find Zhang Hua.

Shen MO leaned against a snail shell, silently observing the chaos in front of him. After a while, he withdrew his gaze, glanced down to Bai Youwei, a shadow in his eyes.

“You know something,” he stated, though he phrased it as a question. He was sure that Bai Youwei was hiding something from him.

Bai Youwei blinked.

The muddy teen had tarnished clothes, yet her eyes remained unusually clear, like washed ink gems. Their twinkle was reminiscent of fireflies and starlight hiding in the night.

“Isn’t it obvious?” she said with a faint smile, “You have your methods, and others naturally have theirs. Zhang Hua wouldn’t fire a shot at this time without reason. He also wants to pass the game, just in a different way than us.”

Shen MO contemplated, “His way…is to reduce the number of people?”

Bai Youwei lifted the corner of her mouth, “To put it bluntly, a single frog can catch over 70 insects in one day, around forty to fifty people died just now on the highway. His thought may have been that if a few more people die, and the frogs are filled, he will be safe..”
