Chapter 118 Architect

The last day was left, so of course Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning spent a sweet and beautiful time together. The two of them didn't go anywhere, just stayed together at home. Lin Xi didn't sleep on Sunday night, just told Shen Sang Ning: "I may have to leave for a while, just like before, it won't be too long, I will be back in a month."

"You have to take good care of yourself during this time. You have to eat on time... If you don't want to go out, just stay home and don't miss me too much..."

"If you're really bored, go visit your next-door neighbor. If she doesn't open the door, go visit another neighbor. The saleslady at the convenience store next door should always be there..."

"If all else fails, go find Lin Lin at school. At least you've spent some time together. And 'once a daughter, always a daughter', she definitely won't dare to say anything to you. We can just treat her as our goddaughter."

At this point, Shen Sangning finally responded, “Can I eat Lin Lin?”

At first, Lin Xi said yes, but now she was her own acting principal, so Lin Xi said, "Don't eat it yet, she still needs it."

Shen Sangning was a little unhappy, and pouted her lips and said "Oh".

Lin Xi found it a little funny to see her pouting lips that looked like they could hold soy sauce. She reached out and pinched her lips: "Why are you jealous of everyone? Don't worry, we won't see her much in the future, unless Principal Di and the others come back with news about the committee."

"Will Principal Di and the others come back?"

Chen Sangning suddenly asked this, and Lin Xi was a little surprised. Ningning would actually ask about something that had nothing to do with her, so she whispered, "What do you think?" She was trying to induce Chen Sangning to think, because if her little brain didn't work all the time, it would get rusty.

Shen Sangning tilted her head and thought for a while before answering, “I probably won’t be able to come back.”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because the committee seems very powerful, but Principal Di shouldn't be that powerful."

Lin Xi raised her hand and pulled Shen Sang Ning into her arms. She rubbed Shen Sang Ning's head with her chin: "Ning Ning is really smart, she thought the same as I did." After a while, Lin Xi asked again: "Ning Ning, can I kiss you?"

That is, every time when it was time to go to bed at night, Chen Sang Ning would threaten Da Yanzhu to face the wall and reflect on his mistakes and not record any sound, otherwise Lin Xi would not do such an intimate thing.

Hearing Lin Xi's question, Shen Sangning's cheeks flushed slightly. She hummed, then moved a little away from Lin Xi's embrace, tilting her head back, waiting for Lin Xi to kiss her. Lin Xi also lowered her head, leaning closer, and kissed Shen Sangning lips to lips, once, twice, three, and four times.

She didn't sleep all night on Sunday night, and when it was almost time, she asked Shen Sangning to call Big Eyes back. She said "see you next time" to the audience in the live broadcast room. She was mainly worried that the audience would see the black screen in her live broadcast room and mistakenly think that she was really dead. At that time, someone might even make alarmist remarks, otherwise she would not take the initiative to say hello.

At six o'clock, Lin Xi suddenly disappeared in the room. Shen Sang Ning stretched out her hand in the direction of Lin Xi, but in the end she touched nothing, only a ball of air. Her hand fell down and landed on the quilt, then she hugged herself into the quilt, curled herself up, and huddled in the place where Lin Xi had just been.

There is still a little warmth here, as if Lin Xi hasn't left yet.

"Lin Xi, you have to come back soon..."

Shen Sangning slowly closed her eyes, sighed, and then entered power saving mode.

Lin Xi yawned when she returned to the real world. After returning to the real world, she came out of the official 360-degree panoramic surveillance room and greeted Li Lana who was waiting outside the door.

"I know you have a lot of questions about me and Aaron Jones, but I'm really sleepy now. I haven't slept for a day and a night. Let me go back to my room and take a nap. We'll talk about it after I wake up."

"good."

Li Lana agreed to her request. Seeing that she looked sleepy, she was afraid that she would fall asleep in some corner of the base, so she followed her to Lin Xi's room before saying good night to her.

In fact, Li Lana was also very sleepy. When Lin Xi was in the dungeon, both Li Lana and Cai Hua shortened their sleep time to the extreme. Li Lana slept four or five hours a day, while Cai Hua only slept three hours a day.

On the last day, everyone knew they had passed the level and felt a little relieved. The rest time for their shifts was extended a little, but Cai Hua was still worried about Aaron Jones, and she kept herself awake and watched back and forth between Lin Xi and Aaron Jones' live broadcast rooms.

After confirming that Lin Xi had returned, Cai Hua returned to his room to sleep.

Lin Xi slept until six in the afternoon. She woke up because she was extremely hungry. She stretched out her arms and thought for a moment before getting out of bed and pulling her phone from the drawer. Turning it on, she saw a message from He Sitong pop up, quickly jumping to 99. She clicked on the top message, and saw the first one was sent at midnight.

The first thing she said was: Congratulations on passing the level!

Lin Xi flipped through it casually and found that it was full of meaningless words, so he scrolled to the bottom and replied: Thank you.

The other side quickly replied: Sister Xi, you are awake! This time you performed very well, and Sister Ningning also seems to have recovered very well, congratulations!

As a fan of Lin Xi and Shen Sangning, He Sitong didn't miss any of the changes in her beloved. Shen Sangning had become noticeably more normal than before. Hearing her say this, Lin Xi couldn't help but feel a little happy. They chatted for a while before each putting down their phones and going about their own business.

After waking up, Lin Xi went out, walked around the cafeteria and ate something. When she went to the gym to prepare for exercise, she saw the people from the base. When they saw that she had woken up, they immediately took her to do various tests, including physical and psychological assessments.

¤

After the test, he had a face-to-face conversation with Cai Hua. Cai Hua mainly wanted to know what was going on with Aaron Jones. Lin Xi didn't hesitate and told him everything Aaron Jones had said. Cai Hua frowned, "He probably hasn't given up on his plan to assassinate you. We sent you a message in advance. Although you acted well and ordinary people couldn't notice it, a professional like Aaron Jones could easily see that you were wary of him, so he changed his strategy in time."

"I suppose so."

Cai Hua's analysis was sound. If Allen Jones had known from the start that he couldn't beat Ning Ning, there would have been no need to follow and expose so much. He likely realized that Lin Xi had seen through his intentions only after he caught up, and then changed his mind.

In short, Aaron Jones didn't want to die meaninglessly.

"Rest well these few days. If things go as expected, you should be given a bye."

Lin Xi frowned, somewhat disagreeing: "Alan Jones also did it twice in a row, and it's possible that I will be directly dragged into the world of ghost stories twice in a row."

Cai Hua, however, didn't think so. She shook her head and said, "You may not have noticed, but the Rule Monster World is actually targeting you... Chen Sangning is indeed very strong, perhaps so strong that ordinary dungeons can't do anything to you. That's why they chose to go all the way in the last dungeon, preventing you from even entering the core area."

Lin Xi pursed her lips, she knew that Cai Hua was telling the truth.

"They want to instill fear in humanity and descend upon this world, and you are their biggest obstacle right now. They haven't completed their mission against you, and that will likely delay your entry into the dungeon."

She doesn't want this kind of thing!

Lin Xi's face showed bitterness. She wanted to enter the world of ghost stories and be with Shen Sangning.

Cai Hua comforted her, even though it was not consolation in Cai Hua's opinion: "But don't worry, they should not be able to completely stop you from entering the world of ghost stories. Otherwise, they would not have to target you like this and directly ban you from entering. This may be one of their rules and cannot be changed."

"By the way, have you read Principal Di's rules?"

Cai Hua changed the subject at the right moment, and Lin Xi was indeed distracted by Cai Hua's words: "What rules?"

Cai Hua took out the tablet, clicked a few times, found a picture, enlarged it, and placed it in front of Lin Xi: "This is the light screen of Principal Di displayed in the live broadcast room. There were many anchors present at the time, and there were various angles. After the technical department pieced it together and restored it, we can clearly see that the rules at the top are actually Principal Di's own rules."

Lin Xi took a look and was a little surprised.

Principal Di is a daughter slave, and there are countless rules related to Zhu Zhu:

[1. Do not talk about Zhu Zhu;

2. Don’t bully Zhu Zhu;

3. Do not use academic performance as an excuse to ridicule Zhu Zhu;

4. Anyone who hurts Zhu Zhu must die;

5. The use of lecture halls is prohibited;

…………】

Cai Hua added, "But judging from the actual results, Principal Di was able to remain calm when you triggered these rules, instead of rushing over to kill you. It can be seen that Principal Di is a calm and strong person."

"So, while ghosts are powerful and bound by rules, they can also resist and modify them. This is evident in both Principal Di and the ghost who drives bus No. 14."

"It's also worth mentioning that, based on the intelligence we've obtained this time, the so-called dungeon should be that the committee finds suitable ghosts, communicates with them, and then has these ghosts form the dungeon. Then, the host is thrown into the group of ghosts to survive."

At this point, Lin Xi felt that something was wrong: "That's not right. Although Sweet Home and School both have this kind of main body, the second copy I experienced clearly doesn't have it? Everyone's copy is different. Obviously, there's no specific copy structure?"

"Yes," Cai Hua replied, "Architects aren't necessarily humanoid ghosts. 'Sweet Home' is all about the strange story of 'home.' If you don't limit architects to just one humanoid ghost, then anything is possible. While everyone's copy in 'Survival is Work' is different, there's one thing they all share."

"That's the notice board. The first thing the anchors see when they open their eyes is the notice board. Including you, everyone finds their jobs from the notice board."
