I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 465
Chapter 465: Chapter 465: The Best Prop
Mary fell with a clatter into a blanket of shattered glass.
Almost instantly, the lights of the entire amusement park went out.
The rollercoaster stopped running, the carousel stopped spinning, and the Ferris wheel stood still. Even the puppets fell silent.
The music faded away.
The world plunged into darkness.
Bai Youwei looked outside, Yan Qingwen stood amidst the darkness, strikingly calm and silent, akin to a statue.
She finally relaxed genuinely, her knees buckled, and she propped herself up on the stair railings and knelt down.
“Sorry, it took a while to find the shooting spot,” Yan Qingwen said.
His voice wasn’t loud, but the amusement park was so quiet, so quiet that even though they were distant, Bai Youwei heard him clearly.
She made a bitter smile, lowered her head, and her cheek’s sweat fell on the ground. She whispered softly, “Finally…if it was any later, I really couldn’t hold on.”
Not far away, the bunny approached slowly, its fluffy head rested on her knee, staying still, seemingly also exhausted.
Bai Youwei picked it up and stroked it.
Well…it was almost out of energy, indeed a tough job.
Bai Youwei cradled the bunny and rested quietly.
There were distinct footsteps from below the stairs. She didn’t turn around until a warm pair of hands, slightly damp from sweat, embraced her and progressively lifted her.
The familiar warm embrace eased her, giving her a sense of returning home. Even if the man was sweaty, bloody, and covered in dirt, he could always bring her a sense of security.
Bai Youwei leaned against Shen Mo’s chest, closed her eyes briefly, then opened them and asked, “Where are the others?”
Shen Mo, cradling her, descended the stairs and answered softly, “Tan Xiao is injured, he left.”
Bai Youwei asked again, “What about Yu Yaqing?”
Shen Mo’s steps momentarily hitched, then resumed. He continued moving downward and answered, “…she had an accident.”
Upon hearing the news, Bai Youwei froze, “She’s dead?”
Shen Mo acknowledged with a faint ‘mmhmm’.
The two remained silent, the only sound in the winding stairs was their footsteps, one following another.
After a while, Bai Youwei asked him again, “Did it hurt when she died?”
Shen Mo stopped and looked at Bai Youwei, “It didn’t. When she died…she didn’t suffer much.”
Upon hearing that, Bai Youwei nodded her slightly dazed head, whispering, “That’s good.”
…
The two exited the Crystal Tower to see Yan Qingwen and Shen Fei waiting for them outside.
Further away, the Inspector was slowly making his way towards them—
“Congratulations, you have cleared this game.”
Bai Youwei, Shen Mo, Shen Fei, Yan Qingwen.
The Rabbit’s gaze swept over each of their faces as it spoke warmly, “You all performed even better than I imagined. Doll Games is always generous to its victors. You will receive the best rewards in history.”
“The best reward?” Yan Qingwen ridiculed sharply.
Shen Mo responded indifferently, “So many people have died unless they can be revived from death, I don’t think any reward can be considered the ‘best’.”
The Rabbit chuckled softly, “The reward that allows one to resurrect indeed exists, but it’s not in my games.”
When it finished its sentence, all four people present were stunned.
A reward that allows one to resurrect from death?
Did such a thing truly exist in the world?!
Yan Qingwen asked anxiously, “Where is this game you speak of? Which game do we need to enter to receive such a reward?”
The Rabbit answered, “There are 7124 Doll Games in total. After the initial trial run, 3361 games were shut down due to irreparable glitches, 2156 were shut down due to overly homogenous data, 1092 were shut down because the clearance rate was lower than 0.01%, and 343 were shut down because the clearance rate was higher than 10%. Only the remaining 172 games are running normally. The game that has the reward to resurrect from death is just one. Your chance of encountering it is roughly five out of a thousand, so I don’t believe you would be that lucky.”
