"Without a doubt, Xiaoshiyin and the others have now completely grasped the true identities of each of us, which is why she can use this as leverage to force us to make a choice."

"That's right!"

Wu Tina continued, "Now that they've built up enough reputation, and we've been staying indoors, they've launched their attack. The current situation is extremely dire for all of us. No matter which path we choose, we'll fall into their trap and be led by the nose."

“What if we don’t agree?” Rocco asked.
