The man turned around and looked Xun Niannian up and down. "Miss, don't you know? Something happened at the Lingcheng Reservoir last night. There was a breach in the dam. Prince He led people to plug the breach overnight and personally went to command the situation. As a result, Prince He was accidentally washed away by the flood!"

"What did you say, Chen...Prince He was washed away by the flood?"

Xun Niannian was completely stunned.

His wide eyes were filled with disbelief.

Chen Lianhe was washed away by the flood.

This... this is too shocking!

The man was not surprised at Xun Niannian's reaction. In the eyes of the common people, especially those in Ling County, Prince He was like a god. Everyone was grateful and respected him from the bottom of their hearts.

It's normal to have such a reaction when you hear that he got into trouble.

When he heard it early in the morning, he was also filled with shock and disbelief.

The man sighed and continued, "Hey, I heard that Prince He's men have been looking for him all night, but they still haven't found him. I don't know how he is doing now."

Another slightly fat man nearby heard their conversation and came over to interrupt, "I think it's probably bad. It was windy and rainy last night. Although the rain was lighter in the second half of the night, it's still not to be underestimated. The conditions are so bad..."

The slightly plump man couldn't continue speaking, his face full of regret.

Xun Nian Nian came back to her senses a little from her state of shock and daze.

She wakes up the system, [Wuwu, come out! ]

Without waiting for Wuwu to respond, she continued, "Wuwu, tell me, if the villain dies at this moment, does that mean we don't have to continue the mission?"

[Also, the villain died, causing the mission to be interrupted. This is not my fault, right? I don't need to be punished, right? ]

System Wuwu: [Host, don't think too much, our target is not dead yet! ]

【Ah! He’s not dead? 】

System Wuwu: [Yes, he is not dead. If he were dead, there would be a prompt in the system. There is no prompt in the system now, which means he is not dead yet.]

Xun Nian Nian: “…”

He's not dead, so she was really thinking too much just now.

Xun Niannian: [You haven't answered my question just now. What if, I mean what if, the villain died and the mission could not continue, what would happen? ]

Wuwu thought for a moment before responding.

[Host, please don't ask such hypothetical questions. I don't know exactly what will happen... But based on my many years of experience in system development, if the target of the capture encounters an accident and the mission is terminated, it will not be a good thing for the host.]

Xun Niannian narrowed her eyes.

[How much experience do you have in building systems? So you have led many hosts before? Can you tell me about them? ]

Wuwu: [……]

[Ahem.] Wuwu coughed lightly, [Host, there is a rule in our system that you cannot casually talk about previous hosts with the current host, so I can't talk to you about this.]

[Also, host, although Chen Lianhe is not dead, he may be in danger or seriously injured. Do you want to go look for him now? ]

[Go find him?] Xun Niannian frowned slightly, [Why should I go find him?]

System Wuwu: [I have been reflecting on this for the past few days. Why does our target have a zero favorability towards you? I think it is definitely not because the food you cook is bad. After all, he always enjoys eating. Look, he even came back hungry yesterday just to eat the meal you cooked. This means that he likes the food you cook.]

[He obviously has no objection to what you do, and he may even like it very much, so why doesn't his favorability towards you increase? ]

[Yes, why? ] Xun Niannian took over the system's question.

This question was also the question in her mind.

System Wuwu: [Host, this is what I think. The villain's favor towards you has not increased. I'm afraid it's because of you. He doesn't like you and has no affection for you at all. So no matter how good or delicious the food you make is, it won't impress him.]

[If you go to him at this time, he will definitely be touched and may even develop a crush on you.]

[As long as he starts to have a little affection for you, it should be easier to complete tasks in the future, and slowly he will have a better impression of you! A single spark can start a prairie fire, right?]

A black line crossed Xun Niannian's forehead.

A single spark can start a prairie fire!

[Are you sure the villain's favorability towards me is zero not because of a system problem? For example, a bug or something?]

Xun Niannian always felt that this possibility was more likely.

System fog: [……]

[Host, I still suggest you go find him. ]

Xun Niannian sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to look for him, the key is, where to look for him? Chen Lianhe's men looked for him all night but couldn't find him, so how can I know where to look for him?"

System foggy, [Host, have you forgotten? We have tracking pills! Just take the tracking pills and silently recite the villain's name in your mind, and it will guide you to find him. ]

When Xun Niannian heard this, she slapped her thigh hard.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that!"

Among the miscellaneous items she had previously bought in the system mall was something called a tracking pill.

At that time, she also asked Wuwu what the use of this thing was!

How could she forget this thing!

Huh.

Why does the atmosphere around me seem a little off?

Xun Niannian silently looked around and found that everyone's eyes were on her, including the storyteller sitting behind the desk.

Xun Niannian finally came back to her senses.

Just now, when she was chatting with the system, the storyteller had finished his break and was about to continue his lecture.

The people around who were listening to the book also quieted down and waited to listen to the book.

At this moment, the scream she suddenly slapped her thighs and seemed particularly abrupt.

Xun Niannian felt so embarrassed being stared at by so many people.

"Hey, sorry, please continue."

The storyteller withdrew his gaze, coughed twice to clear his throat, and continued his storytelling.

It is still so passionate and fascinating.

But Xun Nian Nian was not interested at all at this time.

She pulled Dong Xing, who was listening to a book with great interest, and said, "Let's go."

"Where are you going? Miss, don't you want to listen? This story is so interesting!" Dong Xing was already fascinated by it.

Xun Niannian pursed her lips: "Something happened to Chen Lianhe."

Dong Xing: “?”

She knows!

That’s what the big brother just said!

Facing Xun Nian Nian's gaze, Dong Xing finally guessed something. She widened her eyes and said, "Miss, you, you don't want to go find the prince, do you?"
