Perhaps the dolls, including Zhizi, were very well disguised, or perhaps Luo Qingyun was too arrogant and never noticed.

Gardenia and the other dolls maintained the reactions befitting a mindless doll.

When they were able to leave the puppet park and go outside to catch people, they secretly passed on the message.

The news of Luo Qingxin's visit to Shen Zhiyi naturally reached Luo Qingyun, as it was Zhizi herself who relayed the message.

However, all Luo Qingyun knew was that Luo Qingxin had seen Shen Zhiyi and asked Shen Zhiyi questions.

In recent years, after Gardenia was also turned into a doll, Luo Qingxin's public image has become that of a madwoman.

She would only wear a large white robe and wander around, asking everyone she met, "Am I pretty?"

This was just what they wanted Luo Qingyun to know.

In fact, after meeting Shen Zhiyi, Luo Qingxin used an illusion and asked Shen Zhiyi for help.

Shen Zhiyi didn't believe Luo Qingxin's words at first, but then the wandering merchant also appeared.

Yes, the ball was a scheme orchestrated by Luo Qingxin and the wandering merchant from the very beginning.

Including going to interstellar space.

Shen Zhiyi made a deal with them and agreed to help.

After a brief exchange, they hurriedly began to take action.

Shen Zhiyi originally planned to reveal her weakness when they were almost at the hotel so that Luo Qingyun could take her away.

But unexpectedly, Ji Shuochen appeared at the hotel entrance.

When she rushed into the hotel, she could have avoided Luo Qingyun, but Shen Zhiyi still chose to pass by Luo Qingyun.

And their strange behavior in the collection room was all planned in advance.

To be honest, Jiang Chi was also brought in by Luo Qingxin and the wandering merchant for help.

And Ji Shuochen...

They just happened to bump into each other, and then they just happened to run into Luo Qingyun.

Fortunately, the plan still went perfectly.

"So what if you catch me? You still won't find the Book of Puppetry."

Even now, Luo Qingyun still shows no remorse.

"If the Book of Puppetry is not found, there will be more people like me in the future, and none of you will have an easy time!"

Shen Zhiyi touched her nose, took out something, and asked softly, "Is this what you mean?"

And what she was holding in her hand was the Book of Dolls.

Luo Qingyun's eyes widened. "How did it end up in your hands?!"

"Oh, when I went to place the explosive card, I accidentally bumped into a doll. Thinking that I could let it go, I got killed."

Before Shen Zhiyi even reached the room where the dolls were placed, she happened to encounter the doll carrying the Book of Dolls.

The doll was walking normally down the street, and at first she didn't notice that the doll was holding something in its hand.

However, the doll left in a slightly wrong direction, so Shen Zhiyi intercepted it.

Luo Qingyun coughed up blood, completely out of anger.

He glared fiercely at Shen Zhiyi.

"Hey, don't glare at me. Your doll is walking around so conspicuously on the street, it's hard not to notice it."

Shen Zhiyi's expression was very innocent.

"..." Luo Qingyun no longer wanted to speak. She closed her eyes wearily, unwilling to face the situation.

"Anyway, thank you." Luo Qingxin thanked the two of them again.

Jiang Chi nodded without saying anything.

He glanced at Luo Qingyun, who was tied up on the ground, then turned and left the puppet park with Ji Shuochen.

Seeing that Jiang Chi had left, Shen Zhi also bid farewell to Luo Qingxin.

After taking a couple of steps, as if remembering something, he turned around and looked at Luo Qingyun on the ground.

She looked at Luo Qingxin with a hint of something unsaid, then said, "It seems Luo Qingyun has turned herself into a puppet too..."

Luo Qingxin paused for a moment, then slowly looked at Luo Qingyun.

"Don't look at me like that. I don't need your pity."

Seeing this, Shen Zhi sighed and left the puppet park.

The players on the other side looked at each other, their faces saying, "Who am I? Where am I?"

The big shots have all left, shouldn't they leave too?

They exchanged a glance and followed Shen Zhiyi out of the puppet park.

I don't know what happened after she left, but not long after she left, I felt a heat behind me.

The doll park was set on fire, and it's already burning.

For some reason, Shen Zhiyi seemed to see Gardenia in the sea of ​​fire, that extremely gentle girl.

Although I haven't had much contact with gardenias, but...

After glancing at what Zhi Zi had given her, Shen Zhiyi quickly left.

It was already 5 a.m. when I got back to the hotel.

The bards' ball is this afternoon, so let's take a break.

After tidying herself up, Shen Zhiyi lay down on the bed and fell asleep shortly after.

In the afternoon, Xiao Tao came looking for her.

Hearing the knock on the door, Shen Zhiyi got out of bed.

After rubbing her messy hair, Shen Zhiyi got out of bed, yawning as she walked towards the door.

Opening the door, Shen Zhiyi asked, "Is something wrong, Xiao Tao?"

Xiao Tao smiled at Shen Zhiyi and said, "It's already afternoon, we should head over to the ball."

"You are now a distinguished guest of the bard merchant, and he invites you to come over now."

Shen Zhiyi looked at Xiao Tao with a puzzled expression. How did she get involved with the wandering merchant?

However, Shen Zhiyi still tidied herself up and went to the ball with her.

However, before leaving, Xiao Tao also called Jiang Chi and Ji Shuochen, who lived next door to her.

Were these two supposed to live next door to her? She hadn't noticed at first, but it makes sense now, since they got home earlier than her last night.

The three of them followed Xiaotao to the dance party.

Ji Shuochen kept chattering on and on the way.

He hated Jiang Chi for being so heartless, not even consulting him first. If Luo Qingyun hadn't happened to see him, he wouldn't have made it in time!

Shen Zhiyi, who was listening from the side, was speechless. This person looked so idle.

"I thought I was the one who dragged you two down! You two have to treat me to a meal! Otherwise, this isn't over."

Ji Shuochen was very outgoing and immediately brought Shen Zhiyi along.

Shen Zhiyi coldly rejected the landlord's foolish son.

Ji Shuochen paused for a moment, then, "Then, then..."

"Then take me with you next time you go on a mission! Don't you dare go on your own!"

"Although, we're not that close, brother." Shen Zhiyi sighed, if it weren't for the fact that they fought together at the puppet park.

Jiang Chi glanced at Ji Shuochen speechlessly, "You don't need to pay attention to him. He's always been like this, he has an episode every now and then."

Shen Zhiyi said with emotion, "You've worked hard."

"???" Ji Shuochen was completely confused: "Wait, what do you two mean? You were using encrypted codes behind my back?"

"When did you two start dating behind my back?"

"Are you ostracizing me?"

Shen Zhiyi ignored it and quickened her pace.

Jiang Chi also silently quickened his pace.

Xiao Tao, who was leading the way, looked at the two people who had run ahead with a blank expression and asked Ji Shuochen, "What's wrong with those two?"

Ji Shuochen gritted his teeth: "They're ostracizing me!"
