Chapter 69 Who came, and who left...?

Seeing the sharp blade falling towards her, Yue Yiyue became wary, not because of the little monster in front of her, but because she seemed to hear something making a gurgling sound in her ear, as if something was boiling in a pot, or as if something was rushing towards her.

I hope there's nothing strange happening again...

But the current situation prevents Yue Yiyue from worrying about so much.

With a tilt of his head, the sharp blade grazed his cheek and landed behind him. Yue Yiyue took the opportunity to raise his hand and knock the weapon out of the other's hand. He caught it in mid-air with his other hand and plunged it into the body of the computer-headed man.

However, the blood on her cheek dripped down due to gravity, leaving a mark on her white turtleneck sweater.

Yue Yiyue looked down at the sweater stained with bright blood, then touched the wound, a flash of anger in his eyes: "Tsk... I say, how long are you going to keep this up?"

The computer monitor standing by the door tilted its head slightly in confusion, and, fearing that Yue Yiyue couldn't see clearly, it turned up the screen size.

After the crackling of electricity, His emotionless voice rang out: "If you're willing to come with us, this can end now."

"After all, you're just a—"

“Gu Nanqiu has taken over all the laundry at home.” Yue Yiyue picked up a dirty corner, interrupting the other person’s annoying words: “If it gets too dirty, she will also find it troublesome.”

He picked up the sword at his feet and threw it at the computer in the doorway, which looked unusually confused.

A crisp sound of the screen cracking rang out. Yue Yiyue looked at the computer head that was now in pieces: "It's easier to reincarnate than to erase it."

"Rest in peace, may you have weekends off in your next life."

Once the core monster was defeated, the remaining monsters lost control. The screen flashed blue for a moment before going black and collapsing to the ground.

The red door flashed twice in front of Yue Yiyue's eyes and then disappeared.

With the current crisis resolved, Yue Yiyue watched as the sculptures returned to their original positions, continuing their silent vigil.

Yue Yiyue didn't miss the smiling expression on that computer head before it disappeared, which seemed to be mocking him.

Upon seeing that grinning face, Yue Yiyue pondered for a moment and concluded that the smile was simply a clone mocking his limited abilities.

Having figured it out, Yue Yiyue touched his face with some annoyance. Hmm, how should he explain this to Gu Nanqiu later?

Should we seek compensation from the sculpture museum?

No, it's not about seeking compensation from the sculpture museum, but from the building across the street.

bother......

————

Yue Yiyue stayed in the same spot for a while longer, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she no longer heard the gurgling sound.

Gu Nanqiu took out her phone and glanced at it, but there was no reply.

I dialed the number...

No one answered...

This is even more annoying.

At this moment, Yue Yiyue suddenly realized that this was the meaning behind his earlier sarcasm!

Using a diversionary tactic, their real target was Gu Nanqiu. Yue Yiyue subconsciously pressed his tongue against his teeth, standing still with a furrowed brow, deep in thought.

Is the owner of this place really that weak? He didn't even react when someone rushed into the building and tried to take people away. Yue Yiyue felt like she was about to laugh out loud. She glanced around, drew the sharp sword from the Martial God's hand, and held it in her hand.

The sound of high heels clicking on the floor echoed in the small exhibition hall.

A shadow appeared before she did around the corner. Yue Yiyue watched the swaying figure, rolled up her sleeves, and stepped forward: "Hello, my friend is missing. Could you help me find her?"

The staff member, dressed in a long skirt and high heels, who was walking unsteadily, paused for a moment, then changed direction. Her face, which was photographed to be extremely white, and her lips, which were scarlet, made it clear that this thing looked artificial.

Yue Yiyue sighed inwardly, "This job is really difficult."

As the other person walked deeper into the corridor, Yue Yiyue became increasingly calm.

The staff member leading the way felt a chill run down his spine.

It shouldn't be... the person behind me... no...

Around another corner, a thick carpet appeared before him, and Yue Yiyue stopped in his tracks.

Not long after, a pair of sneakers was thrown at the staff member's feet: "I can't do anything about the clothes, but you can step on my shoes."

Staring at the other person's sprained and slightly swollen foot: "Change it."

The commanding tone made the staff members instinctively stop in their tracks.

Somewhat bewildered, she kicked off her high heels: "...Thank you."

......

"I... could you please kill me later?" He stared at the shoes that were a little too small, and his cloudy eyes slowly regained their clarity, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare.

"I accepted some things because of greed, but in the end I failed in the game. I can't go back to the past. The moment I kicked off my shoe, I finally remembered that I used to be a human being?"

"Right?" He helplessly tugged at his clothes, which were quite uncomfortable to wear. He had initially liked them, but they were a complete burden in this situation.

The design was flawed; the abnormally tight skirt made it impossible for her to move her legs. Despite being told there would be no chase, monsters swarmed in from all directions.

Add to that those shoes that make it even easier to twist your ankle, and he's just plain stupid.

The person who initially gave Him this outfit on this occasion never intended for Him to leave. At that time, He was actually quite pleased with himself, thinking he had obtained a little bit of information.

After that, it was as if she had been brainwashed; she refused to throw away the shoes or tear off the inappropriate dress...

No... she remembered someone reminding her.

That was a boy just like the one in front of her, only she was more spirited and more reckless.

The other party had once wanted to help Him, but by then He had already undergone 90% of his transformation.

Past memories slowly resurfaced, and He circled around in place again and again: "At first, I actually felt quite happy, having accepted their rules and drifting aimlessly here."

"We can't go back..."

He suddenly stopped what He was doing, frozen in place. The person before him overlapped with the person in his memory. In that instant, the fragmented memories pieced together, and a somewhat terrifying smile appeared on His pale face as He stood there: "What... have I done?"

What have I done?

As she questioned herself repeatedly, Yue Yiyue sensed something approaching from not far away.

Sensing the other party's intentions, a rule suddenly flashed through Yue Yiyue's mind—only by being killed could one be reincarnated as a human; otherwise, one would become waste and be thrown to the lowest level...

The monster blinked, its mouth opened and closed, and finally it was pulled away by something—

Yue Yi leaped forward, severing the thin line with his sharp dagger, and shielded the monster behind him.

Recalling that twisted expression, he said ferociously, "I'm not quite dead yet!!! I don't want to become trash!!!"

...Yue Yiyue looked down at the monster with a shocked expression.

————

A red door and staff members dressed in different outfits appeared. Yue Yiyue thought the next one should be a sculpture with its eyes damaged.

As he pulled up the rope and walked inside, Yue Yiyue was in a bad mood.

You could even say they're somewhat anxious.

Every corner of her mind was occupied by Gu Nanqiu. She wanted to find her quickly, touch her quickly, hug her quickly, and feel her body temperature. Only in this way could she stop being so agitated.

But the monster beside them didn't seem to be able to read people's expressions.

He spoke eloquently about how he had fallen to this state, and how Yue Yiyue's recent stab had given him a chance to live.

As Yue Yiyue listened, his attention was drawn to the bathroom next to him.

He pushed the monster inside and found a set of clothes in the storeroom: "Go change."

The monster looked down at the restraints on its body: "I can't get rid of them. This is a debuff. When that dead man gave it to me, he didn't intend for me to leave here alive."

"And guess what? After I mutated, I tore him to pieces. There was someone he had tricked standing next to him at the time. The last thing I remember is me pushing her out. I wonder if she's still alive?"

"But I feel a bit awkward."

Yue Yiyue handed over the dagger in his hand: "Want to try it?"

He was stunned for a moment, it was so similar to the scene before, except that back then he was already heartbroken.

"I'll give it a try, I'll give it a try." She stammered for a moment, then added, "If it doesn't work, you're not allowed to blame me, okay?"

He took the nimble dagger from Yue Yiyue's hand: "Aren't you worried that I'll turn around and chop you up?"

He muttered as he walked inside: "Hey, if you hear anything wrong, remember to come in and save me. I can show you the way, you know? I've lived here for many years."

"To make my point, I'll tell you that this museum actually connects this building to that building over there. The curator arranged for many sculptures to protect this place, but it's almost completely destroyed."

"Once this part is completely swallowed up, the madman in the building will go and capture the muse he couldn't forget after meeting her once."

"Don't mind my chatter, okay? It's because I haven't talked to anyone in so long. After taking off those shoes, I realized I had the ability to speak again, and I even remembered that I am a human being."

Sizzle—

The moment the fabric was torn, a voice filled with surprise exclaimed, "It's possible!!!"

"I can!!!"

"One leap! I did it!!!"

Yue Yiyue, who had been patiently waiting outside for half a day, was counting the squares on the tissue when she suddenly heard her name called. She was a little stunned.

"Oh, sorry, I was too excited. Your friend might be upset if I call you that. I'll do it again. Yue Yiyue, you really are! Just seeing you is a miracle! No wonder I often hear your name in the safe zone! Waaaaah, I just don't know if I can ever start over?"

"If I have another chance, I swear I will train hard."

Yue Yiyue calmly pieced together the words above, and it seemed that he had participated in something like this before?

The monster, now dressed, rushed out joyfully: "Yue Yiyue!!! Look, it's perfect!"

The clothes they found were a skirt with a wide flare at the hem. As soon as he came out, Yue Yiyue saw his strong and powerful legs, and he looked like a good prospect for long-distance running.

With just one glance, Yue Yiyue knew why that person had tricked the other into wearing those clothes that weren't good for running.

"Congratulations, the brainwashing has been lifted." Yue Yiyue tried to speak vaguely, so the other party wouldn't realize he didn't actually know Him at all: "What are your plans after this? Stay here to help others, or..."

"Yes, yes, yes, if we can get back to the safe zone, I want to see a forensic doctor to see if there's any treatment available."

At this point, He patted His head: "But you probably don't recognize me at all anymore, since I've been trapped here for decades."

"My name is Yu An. I met you in the battle dungeon of the Gluttony instance. You and your close friend led us out of there. We met again later, but by then I had become 90% mutated and ended up as a monster wandering in the treasure chests of the Greed instance. After four transformations, I came to this world."

Yue Yiyue calmly recorded the information above: "Do you know where Gu Nanqiu is now? Is she safe?"

After saying this, Yue Yiyue was stunned for a moment. Why did she so naturally assume that the person Yu An was talking about was Gu Nanqiu?
