Chapter 116 Love Welfare Home



She looked at Xiao Bailiu quietly: "You have had this kind of moment before, right? When a cowardly liar who tells lies suddenly starts to treat you well, you will repeatedly, repeatedly wonder what his purpose is..."

"...the kindness they give you without any reason is like the beautiful poisonous tail of a scorpion, the sting of a bee with honey. When you swallow it, you are always thinking about when this poison and sting will pierce your heart and chest. Why is he so good to you? Will he betray you?"

"Isn't that what you did to Bai Liu, the liar? Little Bai Liu? Before he was willing to die for you last night, before you knew he was another person, did you really believe in the good he offered you?"

"During this process, haven't you been testing yourself?"

Xiao Bailiu pursed his lips and did not answer Liu Jiayi's question.

Liu Jiayi sneered: "You and I are the same type, both born not to trust anyone. I am also constantly repeating this process of temptation, but I am not as lucky as you. The other person is myself."

She paused, her breathing gradually became weaker, her tone confused: "I will never know what my brother is thinking, because I am not him. He is a man with the blood of this man or that man. He has the same voice as the man who gave birth to me. I will never stop doubting him. Every day when I hear his voice, I can't help but hate him. But when he smiles and calls me Jiayi, and treats me well, I can't help thinking - if only he could live a little longer and stay with me a little longer."

"...Even if he betrayed me and sold me out to that man, it would be great if he could always smile like that and be my brother." Liu Jiayi's voice gradually faded away, as if she was recalling something.

"This is the only person in this world who is different. This is the person who took me away from everything." Liu Jiayi whispered in a trance, "... but even if I tried thousands of times to believe him, no matter how he promised me, I really couldn't control myself from doubting him, just like he couldn't control his betrayal."

"...Even if he cried and swore the day before that he would not coax me out, saying that this was the last time, but the next day as long as the man who gave birth to me started beating him, my brother would start looking for me everywhere, crying and begging me to come out. When I finally came out, my brother would tremble and hold my hand and send me to be beaten by that man...No matter how many times, it was always like this."

Liu Jiayi smiled a very contradictory smile, as if she had trained herself thousands of times to be a docile little girl. "We can't be sure whether another person who is very important to us will betray us, so controlling the other person is the best choice. Looking at what you are doing now, your choice is the same as mine, isn't it? Xiaobailiu?"

"No, I'm different from you." Xiao Bailiu refuted Liu Jiayi calmly, "I chose to be controlled by him."

Liu Jiayi was stunned.

"Bai Liu, that is, another me, gave me two guesses about this strange thing about your health being only 50% before we escaped, and let me choose." Xiao Bailiu was already very close to Liu Jiayi, and he had to lower his head and look at Liu Jiayi who was about to step on the back of his foot.

Xiao Bailiu lowered his eyes and said calmly, "The first guess is that you were poisoned by a mushroom outside, which caused your health to be reduced. He has more evidence and information to support this guess, but there is one unreasonable point about this guess - this guess cannot explain why Liu Huai's health was also reduced."

The expression on Liu Jiayi's face froze. She seemed to realize something. Her hand holding the doll slowly tightened, but her tone was still generally calm. She looked at Xiao Bailiu and asked, "So what? What about the second guess?"

"The second guess is..." Xiao Bailiu said calmly, "He guessed that you might be a player who has already entered. Your personal skills might be related to your mortality rate and health points, forcing the system to weaken your existence. He gave me a guessed player name."

Xiao Bailiu lowered his head and looked directly at Liu Jiayi, whispering softly, "I remember her name was - Little Witch, right?"

Liu Jiayi's breathing stopped for a few seconds.

"Then why did you stop to save me at that time?!" The mask of a good child on Liu Jiayi's face finally broke a corner. The expression on her face almost showed a kind of ferocity and viciousness, and a trace of unexpected panic. "You knew I was a little witch, so why did you stop! Why did you walk into this classroom tonight! Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?!"

"Because the other me told me to try to save your life." Bai Liu looked at Liu Jiayi calmly, "This is a gambling choice. If you are really not the little witch, and you were poisoned and vomited blood, if I didn't save you, you would definitely die. The other me spent money to buy your life, so at least you can't die in my hands. This is my professional ethics as a wanderer."

Liu Jiayi's hands were shaking a little, tears welled up in her eyes, and she looked at Xiao Bailiu, who had remained calm until now, with some bewilderment and astonishment: "You knew... you knew... that you came in tonight to die?! You guessed it, didn't you?! Why did you still come in?!"

Xiao Bailiu said softly, "If I die in your hands tonight, it only means that I made a wrong judgment at the beginning. When I chose to save you, my death was already doomed. So it is doomed to die whether I come tonight or not."

"But if you are not a little witch, then I can come in tonight and save your life." Xiao Bailiu said calmly, "From the perspective of the exchange of interests, whether you are a little witch or not, I must come in tonight for the possibility that you are not a little witch."

Liu Jiayi suddenly bent over, covered her mouth and started coughing. Green juice with a mushroom smell seeped out from between her fingers.

She coughed so violently that her entire face visibly lost its color, and physiological tears quickly welled up in her eyes due to the violent coughing. However, she was like a cowardly little animal, and insisted on glaring at Xiao Bailiu fiercely, holding the doll with its limbs and head torn off in her hand to threaten Xiao Bailiu.

Bai Liu pretended not to see it. He stepped forward and used one hand to help Liu Jiayi, who was still gulping mushroom juice, up. He made a cold judgment: "It seems that Bai Liu's two guesses are correct. Although you pretended to vomit blood, you were indeed poisoned because of the orphanage incident, and it was indeed the little witch. You used some props to pretend to vomit blood at that time, right?"

"I will really kill your Xiao Bailiu." Liu Jiayi fiercely waved away Xiao Bailiu's hand that came to help her, but tears welled up in her eyes because of the coughing, and her originally fragile cheeks were covered with tear marks. "Ahem, I just kept talking to you just to delay time and wait for the skill CD. Now my CD is over, you can't escape Xiao Bailiu!"

[System prompt: Liu Jiayi's personal skills (poison and antidote) CD (cooling time after use) has ended and can be used again]

[System prompt: Witch, you have a bottle of poison and a bottle of antidote tonight. Do you want to use the poison or the antidote? ]

Xiaobai Liu looked at Liu Jiayi quietly.

Liu Jiayi's eyes were filled with mist. She turned her head away from Xiao Bailiu, pursed her lips tightly and gritted her teeth, "...I won't believe you if you want to save me! You are all liars! There is no one in this world who would suddenly treat me well for no reason! Even my brother's kindness to me was earned by my own beatings!"

She had always understood that Liu Huai's kindness to her was mostly out of guilt, and guilt was the most insignificant emotion before betrayal.

Liu Jiayi closed her eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks: [Tonight I'm going to use poison]

A black, twisted black miasma suddenly rose from Liu Jiayi's body. A black lace hollow veil appeared on her body, covering her from head to toe. In her hand was a huge, curved-necked, slender glass bottle. The round body of the glass bottle contained some bubbling black liquid. All the black gas was rising from the broken bubbles in the bottle.

These black, sticky, smoky gases quickly enveloped the thin Liu Jiayi who was holding the bottle like the tentacles of an octopus.

Her gray eyes looked at Bai Liu through the translucent hollow lace, as if with tears in her eyes. The corners of her mouth dripped black, forbidden blood that seemed to be cursed: "You saved me. It was the most wrong choice and judgment you have ever made, Xiao Bai Liu."

"I have never been a good kid who is grateful for the help I have received. I am a bastard who will do anything to get what I want." She said viciously, "I will never be grateful to you for saving me!"

[System prompt: Player Liu Jiayi uses personal skills (Witch's attack weapon)——]

[System prompt: Player Liu Jiayi has entered the state of personal skill identity transformation - "Monster Book: Cursed Forbidden Witch"]

"Me neither." Bai Liu raised his eyes and looked at Liu Jiayi. He seemed to have already accepted the current outcome. He said calmly, "Your skills are quite similar to mine. I'm a wanderer and you're a witch. We both look like people abandoned by God."

Liu Jiayi bit her lower lip and retorted to Xiao Bailiu sharply: "I don't believe in the existence of God!"

Xiao Bailiu nodded calmly as if he understood. "I don't believe it either. The people in this welfare home said that children who don't believe in God will be punished by God and sent to hell. So Liu Jiayi, after you kill me, let's meet in hell."

"But Liu Jiayi." Xiao Bailiu was silent, "Mu Ke knows nothing about you, you don't have to kill him."

Liu Jiayi clenched her fists and looked at Xiao Bailiu for a long time, so long that Xiao Bailiu thought that this smart blind girl would not let go of Mu Ke who had already noticed something was wrong.

Liu Jiayi finally spoke in a dry voice: "...Okay, open the classroom door later, and I'll give you ten minutes to escape."

Xiao Bailiu closed his eyes, opened his arms, took a deep breath of the black mist, and then slowly exhaled. His head was already beginning to feel dizzy. Xiao Bailiu slowly opened his eyes and looked at Liu Jiayi who was walking towards him with the poison in her hands.

"I still don't understand...why you wanted to save me." Liu Jiayi squatted down slowly, resting her head on the shoulder of Xiao Bailiu, who was sitting on the ground with a frown on his face and exhausted after being poisoned by the poisonous mist. She lowered her trembling eyelashes like an uneasy and sensitive little sister, and asked Xiao Bailiu softly in a slightly hoarse voice.

If Liu Jiayi hadn't been holding the bottle of poison that was still emitting black gas, people who saw this scene would have thought that the person who was about to be poisoned might be her.

Black blood slowly dripped from the corners of Xiao Bailiu's mouth, and he swallowed it with all his might. He said calmly, "Actually, I don't know why I saved you."

"Maybe - I've been a bad kid for too long, and suddenly someone wants me to be a good kid for once." Xiao Bailiu sighed in annoyance, "I really can't understand the concept of popular values. Obviously, being a good person doesn't get you anything, and you still have to pay a price."

Liu Jiayi rested her forehead on Xiao Bailiu's shoulder. She closed her eyes, her eye sockets were a little red, her teeth were clenched, her breathing was broken, and she tried her best to hold back her tears: "You are obviously a bad guy from beginning to end. Don't do such a thing. You have done this to save me, but I still won't thank you. I absolutely won't thank you. I am worse than you..."

Xiaobailiu leaned back and looked at the ceiling.

His consciousness gradually became a little blurred, but he could feel the warmth spreading from the place where Liu Jiayi was pressing on his chest.

Xiao Bailiu was puzzled and asked her slowly because he was weak: "Liu Jiayi, didn't you trick me? Didn't you win...didn't you kill me as you wished? You should be very happy, why are you crying?"

Liu Jiayi was silent for a long time, then she sneered, but her voice was tearful: "Because you made me cry... Stupid Bai Liu!"
