"I'm just wondering, why do you all think I should know what Mona did before?"

After being bombarded with a barrage of questions by Mingmei, the law enforcement officer suddenly burst into laughter.

The kind that makes you laugh out loud.

"Do you really think I'm a know-it-all?"

"Then you can't help us subdue Mona. If you can't even help with providing information, what use are you...?"

Mingmei was quite bold, staring intently at the other person as she spoke.

This gave Mingmei the illusion that she was arguing and putting on a show with her father, and that she was the victor.

The opposite is true.

In their family, there were four children—they were at the bottom of the family hierarchy.

Her father was second only to one person.

It goes without saying who is number one.

This "unreasonable argument" with the law enforcement officer who was actually her father brought Mingmei a great sense of accomplishment.

She used to despise it, but now—Mingmei: It's so delicious!

"Little brat~"

The law enforcement officer chuckled and ignored her, instead turning to Mu Chen and asking, "Aren't you going to do anything about it?"

After asking the question, Mingmei turned her head and saw that Mu Chen seemed not to have heard anything, paying no attention to what was happening at the table, and was focused on peeling crayfish sold in the shop next door.

Immediately afterward, the law enforcement officer let out another sneer from his nose, muttering something obsequious that was hard to hear. Mu Chen glanced at the officer, then looked away and continued peeling the lobster.

"Tell me, were Mu Chen and I right? After Mona took control of her body, she projected some of the stories that happened to her onto other characters? She watched how they reacted when they faced the same predicaments as her, didn't she?"

Seeing that the topic was starting to veer off course, Mingmei repeated her fall. This time, the law enforcement officer simply said, "To be honest, I only arrived here a little earlier than you. I've told you everything I know. As for your speculation, I can only say that it's very likely."

"If it weren't possible, we wouldn't dare to make such a speculation, right?"

The law enforcement officer seemed not to have said anything, but he did encourage Mingmei to take a stroll around the east side of the city.

In response, Mingmei glared at the law enforcement officer while eating a bowl of crayfish meat that Mu Chen had peeled, and said, "Well, you should also go out and explore more, and use your abilities, okay?"

As he spoke, the law enforcement officer smiled at Mingmei, indicating that his ability was to kill insects, not to gather information.

"Tomorrow is the weekend, and Mona will be out of school too, so I can't go out much these next few days. I'll have to trouble you again."

The law enforcement officer had a thousand reasons to make Mingmei "earn her own living".

Compared to those who came into this world with their original roles and identities, the law enforcers are truly "unregistered."

Aside from the law enforcement confirming their guess was correct and increasing the likelihood of it, Mingmei and Muchen managed to get two bowls of spicy hot pot and a large plate of crayfish that night.

On her way back after eating her fill, Mingmei looked up at the sky and even felt a moment of confusion, wondering what she had come out tonight for.

What are Lu Xiaoyao and the others doing right now?

Mu Chen remembered that Mona and Lu Xiaoyao were now neighbors, and since everyone was on holiday and had gone home, perhaps Lu Xiaoyao could see something different.

So, Mingmei, reminded by Mu Chen, continued to keep an eye on Lu Xiaoyao, and then saw a man and a woman lounging on the sofa watching a comedy movie while drinking soda.

Bright and beautiful: ? ? ? ?

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Mingmei's expression change slightly, Mu Chen asked another question out of curiosity.

"Heh~"

Mingmei sneered, watching Julian and Lu Xiaoyao laughing and joking on the other side. Mingmei was even speechless at her own pointless worry, and then thought of Mona, who might be trying to find empathy in Lu Xiaoyao...

Mona was actually quite unlucky, I suppose. (cascoo.net)

"Go open the door, someone's here."

The doorbell rang, and Lu Xiaoyao kicked Julian next to her with her leg, while she stared intently at the comedy movie playing on TV.

She truly never imagined that the TV in a survival game could be so entertaining!

"They're here." Julian glanced helplessly at Lu Xiaoyao, who was laughing non-stop while holding a fruit platter, then got up and walked towards the living room door. As soon as he opened it, he saw Mona standing at the door holding a doll, and Julian's eyes narrowed involuntarily. He almost slammed the door shut.

"Is...is it Mona? Is there something you need?"

"No. These are cookies my mom made. She told me to bring some to you." As she spoke, Mona took out a small paper bag hidden behind the doll, and a rich, sweet milky aroma instantly filled the air.

It smells delicious.

"Please thank your mother for me. It's so late, and I haven't prepared anything in return..."

Julian carefully took the biscuit and thanked him softly. Mona smiled at him for doing so.

"By the way, Uncle Thomson, is Aunt Sheila home? My mom asked me to pass on a message to her that we should go shopping together tomorrow."

"Oh, she went to get her hair done and hasn't come back yet. I'll tell her when she gets back."

"Oh, Aunt Sheila isn't home!"

For some reason, Julian detected a hint of excitement in Mona's tone.

"Ah...yes."

Julian nodded, and after confirming that Mona was alright, he watched as she safely returned home before closing the door.

"What's wrong?"

Upon hearing that it was Mona, Lu Xiaoyao had already turned her attention to the doorway, standing in a dead corner of the entryway listening to their conversation.
