Chapter 92 Ji Sicheng Reveals Evil Power

Zhao Hexiu was on a mission alone across the island when he saw Lin Jinzhao holding his son. Lin Jinzhao was terrified and nervously looked around, as if a demon might pounce out from a corner and hurt him in broad daylight.

Stupidity is contagious. Zhao Hexiu obediently stopped to greet Lin Jinzhao, but kept a distance of more than ten steps and refused to take a single step forward.

Lin Jinzhao was so engrossed in her own world that she didn't notice these details. She carried her son and hurried home, afraid of running into Ji Zhiqi on the way.

Zhao Hexiu watched his retreating figure, his brows furrowing slightly as he vaguely sensed something, but he didn't reveal it, maintaining his innocent and naive expression.

As he walked out of the courtyard, he coughed and was about to greet them when he suddenly saw Ji Sicheng come out of the house.

Ji Sicheng hated all outdoor sports that made him sweat, but Ji Zhiqi cared a lot about his physical development and health, and kept pestering him. Ji Sicheng had no choice but to settle for second best and asked Ji Zhiqi to buy him a sun hat with a very large brim.

Zhao Hexiu and Ji Sicheng were the same age and had a close relationship like good friends. He naturally came over to greet them. Ji Sicheng glanced at him and said, "You're here to complete a mission too, right? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhao Hexiu paused, not expecting Ji Sicheng to get straight to the point.

The brim of his hat blocked the sunlight, casting a shadow over Ji Sicheng's entire face. He looked directly at Zhao Hexiu, his expression unreadable, but his eyes were exceptionally sharp, as if they could see through his deceptive exterior and into his heart.

"You came so slowly, did you do something on the way?"

Zhao Hexiu's smile froze, and his eyes completely changed, all traces of his childishness vanishing.

The two exchanged a few glances, silently reaching some kind of consensus, and walked out together in silence.

The viewers in the live stream were on the edge of their seats.

When I was six, I couldn't even tell which way was which, let alone which. It's easy for two kids to get lost when they go out together!

It's understandable that a six-year-old child is always busy running and jumping.

【??? Have you all forgotten that Sicheng is a child prodigy? How could he not know the way? He must have had other plans for going out.】

[He Xiu and Si Cheng's auras seem strangely compatible; something's not right. Could he also be a child prodigy?]

[That's impossible! He Xiu is a well-behaved baby, how could he possibly be a strange little genius?]

...

Ji Sicheng turned and glanced at Zhao Hexiu, a faint smile playing on his lips. Zhao Hexiu stopped pretending to be stupid.

His living environment was extremely complicated. Only by pretending to be innocent could he gain his parents' favor and secure his position as heir. He also successfully inherited the family's cunning and used the deceptive nature of a child's cuteness to do many things in private.

At their first meeting, Zhao Hexiu knew that Ji Sicheng was the same kind of person as him, except that Ji Sicheng was more angular, disdained to pretend, and was more aggressive and smarter than him.

But this is not true strength; the extreme environment taught him that the earlier he showed his talent, the more likely he was to fail.

His three older brothers are typical examples, so he pretended from beginning to end, like a normal six-year-old child. But he knew that even if he could fool his very shrewd father, he could not fool Ji Sicheng.

Ji Sicheng stopped inexplicably. There was a soft lawn in front of him. He squinted at it for a moment and said in a decisive tone, "You hid the red flag under here, didn't you?"

Zhao Hexiu's smile froze, but he still pretended to be confused. "What did you say? I don't understand. What red flag?"

The viewers in the live stream had the same thought, their minds full of questions, their eyes glued to the screen, almost to the point of tears, yet they still couldn't find a single clue.

“That day, my family went on a picnic. I observed the division of the territory, and the entire island was set up as a chessboard by the program team.”

Viewers in the live stream: ?? A chessboard?!

[As expected of a little genius, he figured that out.]

[The production team is amazing! They set up the island like a chessboard and hid it so well that even Ji Zhi Qiu didn't notice.]

【!! I get it, the red flag is a chess piece that can kill the game, but I don't know what kind of chess piece it is】

Ji Sicheng turned to look at Zhao Hexiu and asked the same question, "You should know, right? I don't need to explain."

“Since it’s a chessboard, the number of our pieces should be the same, but this is based on the premise that you have the most basic ability to find objects. However, there will still be some problems, big and small. I was not sure of the number at first, but after seeing the position of this red flag, I guess you are probably missing three pieces.”

Zhao Hexiu could no longer laugh.

Ji Sicheng squatted down, picked up some pebbles, and drew several crisscrossing lines. "With my abilities, I can't deduce the whole picture, but I'm sure I can guess the general location. I guess several key red flags have landed here."

He looked up at Zhao Hexiu and raised an eyebrow. "Looks like I guessed right."

Zhao Hexiu finally came to his senses, and just gave a dry laugh, "What are you talking about? I don't understand."

"After receiving your answer, I am 100% certain that since I guessed your strategy and plan and gained the upper hand, I can prepare a countermeasure in advance. Assuming you are only slightly less intelligent than me, you should have thought of this and set a trap for me in advance."

Ji Sicheng smiled and said, "But it doesn't matter. Hard power determines everything. No matter which level you think of, you will always miss a link."

“Ordinary soldiers crossed the Chu River and Han border, hiding in the most inconspicuous positions.” Ji Sicheng drawled out his words, pointing to a certain spot. Zhao Hexiu’s face not only turned extremely ugly, but his lips even trembled twice.

Ji Sicheng finally got to see the expression he wanted.

"General."

"You lost."

Zhao Hexiu stared wide-eyed at the circles Ji Sicheng had drawn on the ground. After a few seconds, his innocent expression returned. "What are you talking about? I don't understand. Weren't you supposed to come out and play with me?"

Ji Sicheng just stared at him without saying a word.

Zhao Hexiu could only continue his act, saying, "It's getting late. I've been out for so long, Dad will worry. Goodbye, Sicheng. I'll come visit you another day."

He made no mention of the mission, as if he had already forgotten about it. The two young geniuses exchanged a glance and formed an alliance.

Zhao Hexiu turned and left without looking back. Ji Sicheng watched his back, a crooked smile on his face. He dusted off his hands and walked back expressionlessly, showing no joy at Zhao's half-hour victory, only a calm "That's it?!"

The two small figures parted ways, and the contest came to an end, leaving only bewildered spectators.

[Can anyone translate what they're talking about?]

[I don't know, staring blankly at the sky.]

Judging from Xiu Bao's reaction, he must have understood, otherwise he wouldn't have given up on the mission.

[I've completely resigned myself to my fate. I wouldn't last five minutes in a drama about intrigue or something. lol.]

[I'm laughing so hard I could die! Those two kids are so enigmatic, while we adults can only babble.]

Don't talk nonsense, who's like you? I can also do Makka Pakka. (doge emoji)

...

Ji Zhi Qiu patrolled the territory for a long time, almost getting sunburnt, but couldn't find any enemies anywhere.

He felt that everyone's goal was probably the ultimate mission, and he was ready to wait for the fifteen-minute countdown to begin. But no matter how long he waited, his watch remained completely silent.

Are they all so harmonious and friendly that they gave up the ultimate mission for the sake of their friendship?

As the sun set, Ji Zhi Qiu returned with a head full of questions and ran into Lu Yu Nian at the entrance of the courtyard.

Ji Zhi Qiu suddenly understood and looked at him gratefully, "Today you received the countdown reminder and came back to protect the three little ones, right?"

Just as Ji Zhi Qiu was about to praise him for completing the ultimate task so easily, Lu Yu Nian showed the same expression as him, "I didn't receive the countdown notification, I thought it was you."

Ji Zhi Qiu: ? ?

Lu Yu Nian: ...

The two looked at each other, both unable to sort out their thoughts, wondering what had happened during the day.

Ji Zhi Qiu had a bad feeling and strode into the house. Unexpectedly, the three kids were sitting together chatting. Hearing the noise at the door, they all turned around and looked at him.

Her face was fair and delicate, her clothes were neat, and she hadn't suffered any hardship.

Ji Zhi Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, but then fell into even greater confusion.

So what exactly is this so-called ultimate mission? Has the director gotten senile and forgotten about this part?

Although it was outrageous, it was the only possibility he could think of. Seeing that the family of five was safe and sound and that not an inch of their territory had been lost, he breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the sofa without a care in the world.

"You guys today..." He had only said a few words when, as if to shut him up, Ji Sicheng poured him a glass of warm water with a blank expression. "Drink some quickly, you're practically dried out."

Although the words were unpleasant, Ji Zhi Qiu felt Ji Si Cheng's concern and was quite moved as she accepted the water glass; the water temperature was just right.

Lu Yunian received the same treatment. Ji Zishen brought a fruit platter from the kitchen, saying, "Eat this first to fill your stomach, then we'll cook later."

Ji Zhi Qiu was already used to being taken care of by her son, so she immediately picked up a peach and started happily munching on it.

Ji Yanyan hadn't seen her father all day and missed him terribly. She buried her face in Ji Zhi Qiu's arms, took a deep breath, and was completely captivated. She hugged her father's neck like a koala clinging to him.

Ji Zhi Qiu was both amused and exasperated, and pinched Ji Yan Yan's cheek.

Ji Yanyan said sweetly, "Dad must be tired today. Let me massage your shoulders."

Ji Zhi Qiu enjoyed the service from her youngest son, drank the water brought by her second son, and ate the fruit washed by her eldest son. She happily sprawled on the sofa, completely forgetting everything that had just happened, making her seem like a naive and innocent girl.

The viewers in the live stream fell silent upon seeing this.

[Am I just imagining things? It's not just Yan Yan, Zi Shen and Si Cheng are pretty wicked too...]

So, in this family, who is the most evil?

I think it's Sicheng!

No, no, no, it should be Zi Shen. It gave me goosebumps.

【Of course it's Yan Yan! How many people can fight off a bratty kid and not be at a disadvantage!】

[What's going on? Ji Zhi Qiu is so evil, yet no one has nominated him!]

Just who are these three little devils? Even Ji Zhi Qiu, in his abstract form, can't compare to them.
