Chapter 53 Un Entertainment Huang Er felt his hands were pounding as he unlocked the door...

Jiang Yang stepped forward and carefully placed the nameplate with his name on it into the transparent box labeled "Animals." The nameplate was clearly visible as it settled securely inside the box.

He quickly withdrew his hand and silently followed behind Ji Yang until they were far away from the eye of the storm in the hall. Only then did he turn around and ask with a hint of doubt, "What's wrong? Is something amiss?"

Ji Yang explained, "When Hoshino was attacked, there were at least four security guards present who were ready to pounce."

Jiang Yang lowered his eyes, suppressing the glint in them. He fidgeted with the ring on his finger, his thumb resting on it. This feeling of being unable to control the danger gave him an indescribable unease.

"What about Hoshino and the others..." Jiang Yang looked up, the words on the tip of his tongue but hesitating to speak.

Ji Yang continued, "The message he just conveyed to me is that we should separate first if there is surveillance, and that we can retrieve it."

What could be retrieved was naturally the nameplate, but the method of retrieval was certainly not like Hoshino's. The claws were real, so Hoshino decisively chose to give up and took advantage of the situation to send a message to someone while arguing with Ji Yang.

Moreover, if they had actually taken out the nameplates in front of everyone, the scene would probably have been quite different.

"But what's the purpose of changing the nameplates?" Huang Er asked, somewhat puzzled. "It can't be so that people who didn't have time to register can find an opportunity to register, can it?"

Nan Ke seemed unconvinced by this statement, raising one corner of his mouth contemptuously and saying, "With that kind of effort, why not just kill the person before they even register?"

Huang Er reminded him, "You forgot? Cain said there's a security team patrolling and you can't break the rules."

Nan Ke added coldly, "Aren't there plenty of people who die in accidents in no man's land?"

Therefore, there must be other intentions involved.

Jiang Yang didn't get involved in their argument; what worried him more was who they were after...

Ji Yang turned back to the dormitory area, and Nan Ke and Huang Er followed behind in silence. Jiang Yang looked up and scanned the surroundings. All that could be heard was the noisy and chaotic activity of the players. It felt like he was back in his university dormitory.

Jiang Yang had no memory of university. He woke up the year after the car accident, and when he did, he didn't even remember who he was.

Later, the sanatorium staff brought him his personal information, and that's when he learned that his name was Jiang Yang.

A graduate student in the Department of Journalism at Nanjing University.

He was attacked and involved in a car accident while infiltrating an entertainment company in Tainan City.

He had no recollection of it.

The doctor said it's okay, he just has amnesia.

When the entertainment company's scandal was exposed, everyone supported and cheered for him. In front of him were his parents, whom he had no memory of, his teachers and classmates who looked regretful, and a series of invisible hands.

He was terrified of those empty, numb eyes, so he ran away and returned to the sanatorium.

He was hailed as a hero, but he didn't want to be one.

Throughout those many years of missing memories, he believed he had always been an orphan.

Until he received that ticket to no man's land.

He finally managed to tear a real opening in this unreal world.

He needs to find it.

who I am.

Of course, judging from the information available now, Jiang Yang is certain that his connection with the No Man's Land must be very close.

The undercover reporter for Un Entertainment might be him, or it might be Da Jiang. The company's collapse is inevitable, and the only key figure the higher-ups can manipulate to stop it is him...

What will happen?

Ji Yang stopped in front of the dormitory. Jiang Yang, with his head down, didn't notice and his forehead went straight into Ji Yang's shoulder.

Just as she looked up, Ji Yang turned to the side and reached out to open the door. Before she could dodge, she felt a solid impact on her nose. Her nose turned red from the force, and tears streamed down her face.

Ji Yang tossed the key to Huang Er and pulled Jiang Yang to stand aside.

Before the blood flowed from the person's nose, he methodically pinched the tip of his nose.

Huang Er felt his hands trembling as he tried to unlock the door, his mind screaming, "Hurry up and open it!"

Jiang Yang opened her mouth slightly and breathed in small gulps. Ji Yang then reminded her, "Look up."

The young man tilted his head back, his eyelashes trembling slightly, and his gaze fell upon Ji Yang's slender neck.

As if possessed, he shifted his gaze to Ji Yang's face. The moment his eyes met Ji Yang's, he inexplicably panicked and looked away, missing the moment when Ji Yang's Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously.

Ji Yang composed himself and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

Holy crap!

Just as Jiang Yang was about to answer, Nan Ke suddenly exclaimed in surprise from inside the dormitory. He quickly nodded and returned to the dormitory with the others after Ji Yang let go of his hand.

Lying on the floor in the middle of the dormitory was Hu Yuan, the source of Nan Ke's surprise.

Jiang Yang rubbed his nose, closed the door behind him, and walked over to Nan Ke, squatting down on the ground with him.

Huang Er walked around to the side of the person's head, skillfully pressed two fingers together on the person's fragile neck, and after a while the furrowed brows relaxed. He said, "Not dead, just unconscious."

Nan Ke stood up and kicked the man's shin twice. "When will he wake up?"

Huang Er chuckled helplessly as he smoked, "Do you really think I'm a human CT scanner?"

Seeing that the two were about to bicker again, Jiang Yang quickly steered the situation back on track and changed the subject, saying, "I remember leaving something on the door before I left. Is it still there?"

“Yes,” Ji Yang replied.

In other words, Hu Yuan did not enter through the dormitory door at the very least.

Having ruled out the possibility that Hu Yuan had appeared out of nowhere, Ji Yang focused his attention on the window.

The windows were horizontal sliding windows. Ji Yang had previously observed that because the exterior of the building was always shrouded in fog, they assumed that the outside was a trial or a temporarily closed no-man's-land and had not opened the windows to check the situation outside.

In order to find out Hu Yuan's situation, the group decided to take a risk after discussing it.

Open the window.

Ji Yang was in charge of opening the windows, Nan Ke and Huang Er were in charge of guarding and defending, and Jiang Yang was in charge of keeping an eye on Hu Yuan's situation.

After the division of labor, Nan Ke tossed a pair of white leather gloves to Ji Yang. Although he didn't say anything, it was easy to tell that they were rare and valuable items. Even Huang Er, who was used to seeing treasures in the no-owner land, had his eyes light up.

Huang Er asked cryptically, "Boss Nan, how much are you selling it for?"

Nan Ke chuckled and replied sarcastically, "Do you think I lack anything from you?"

On the contrary, Huang Er was not embarrassed at all. At this moment, his true nature as a businessman was revealed. He flattered Huang Er and said, "It's okay. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know and I'll be at your service anytime."

At the same time, Ji Yang put on his gloves and gently tapped on the glass window, signaling the two to get ready.

The men looked serious, their eyes fixed on Ji Yang's hand as he pressed it against the rightmost edge of the window frame, not daring to relax their grip even slightly.

Ji Yang's fingertips got stuck in the window crack. He moved slowly and cautiously, and the upper and lower rails made a sharp, piercing metallic friction sound, as if it had become another form of mental torture.

The wind pushed the white mist through the ten-centimeter-wide opening in Jiyang's gate into the dormitory.

Ji Yang, who was closest to the window, squinted. The bulging veins on his arms revealed his difficult situation. He could clearly feel his warmth and vitality being slowly drained away.

Suddenly, he bent his arm and braced it against the windowsill, while struggling to reach out the window with his other hand.

Nan Ke secretly wrapped the white thread around his waist in case of emergency, and Huang Er was also ready.

Finally, he seemed to have grasped something in his hand, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Retreat!"

Then, one of Nan Ke's men pulled him back forcefully, and Huang Er also decisively closed the window.

Exhausted, Ji Yang sat down on the lower bunk. He turned to look at Hu Yuan, who was being dragged to the door by Jiang Yang, and asked, "How is he?"

Just as they were about to act, Hu Yuan suddenly sat up, struggled, and screamed. Jiang Yang struggled to hold him down, but after the window was closed, he fell down again.

Jiang Yang said, "He only said two words: 'Confidential'."

The concept of secrecy only appeared once in their experiences over the past few days, during Jiang Yang's hidden mission to help the association catch the rabbit who stole the association's secrets.

“No,” Huang Er denied, “and the time I helped someone steal something, it should have been this too.”

But this happened during the morning's physical education class. At that time, they hadn't met Hu Yuan yet, so the group couldn't help but look at Hu Yuan on the ground, wondering about the connection between them.

Jiang Yang turned to look at Ji Yang and asked softly, "How are you?"

Ji Yang raised his hand, his white gloves covered with what looked like a layer of charcoal ash, and on top of that ash was the booklet they had left in their previous dormitory, the very thing he had just struggled to retrieve.

After going around in circles, it...

They seem to be back.

Ji Yang took off his gloves, his palms were red. He picked up a corner of the booklet and flipped through it. The page that originally belonged to Maple was replaced with Dana's. All the people in the booklet who had been declared dead were uniformly rendered in black and white. The aura of the dead gradually wandered through the cold paper.

Huang Er proposed a hypothesis, "Do you think this might be some kind of secret?"

"Possibly," but the current form is most likely not.

Ji Yang closed the booklet and handed the other double room key to Huang Er.

Huang Er exclaimed in confusion, "Ah!" Nan Ke pointed to Hu Yuan on the ground, his lips twitching slightly with a forced smile, and told a lame joke, "He's not dead. There are five of us now."

"After we split up, there are only three of us left. Who should we ask to live with the third person?"

Huang Er asked a question, and Jiang Yang pondered for a moment, and it seemed that there really was a suitable candidate at the moment.

"MiG".

When they returned after putting up the nameplates, Miguel was still wandering around the dormitories, probably still without finding a suitable place to stay.

When Ji Yang heard Jiang Yang showing concern for others, he felt a strange sense of resistance.

He originally planned to take advantage of the chaos caused by the violation of the number of people to try and force a fight against the intentions behind the booklet, but when he saw Jiang Yang's expectant eyes, even though he was unhappy, he still couldn't bring himself to refuse.

Nan Ke wavered between Jiang Yang and Ji Yang, unsure of what to say, "So, it's me and Huang Er who's going to stay now?"

Jiang Yang smiled sweetly, "I can't possibly ask someone to come when I'm not even here."

[Un Entertainment Observation Room - Huang Er's Perspective]

A female fan of Jiang Yang cried out, "Ahhhhh, no! Don't let Miguel come!"

The bewildered observers asked, "What's going on? What's happening?"

A well-known veteran player in the observation room shared all the observation room replays of MiG from the first day he entered Un Entertainment to the present, with the footage frozen at several key moments.

Observers: It's over.
