Lu Xingyun shoved the rubber gloves into Bo Zijin's hands: "Here, you pick one. The three of us can take turns, maybe we'll pick one."
Bo Zijin took it, seemingly lost in thought.
A hedgehog has at least one quill, and each quill is only 1 millimeter thick. To find two sewing needles among these thousands of quills would be extremely difficult.
He made his choice.
Just pluck one at random.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
The hedgehog turned around, glaring fiercely at Bo Zijing, then stared pitifully at the barely visible quill between his fingers, "Waaah, you guys are too much! I'm going bald!"
She is indeed cute, but unfortunately no one appreciates it.
Bo Zijin coldly handed the rubber gloves to Yuan Qingli.
Yuan Qingli slowly got dressed.
Yu Guang didn't miss the moment when the hedgehog covered its mouth and chuckled.
She waved her hand, signaling Lu Xingyun and the others to step back.
Then, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, and her voice was soft.
"I hope I can find the needle right away. If I can't, it's okay. I'll pull it out very gently."
The hedgehog's bright eyes stared at the girl in the cheongsam before it. Her skin was fair and firm, her voice was gentle, she was dressed elegantly, and she seemed very polite.
Yuan Qingli bent down, her rubber glove sliding over the hedgehog's head and slowly falling to its neck; it was too big to hold with one hand.
Yuan Qingli simply grabbed its neck with both hands.
Turn it over.
The two men behind her watched Yuan Qingli examine the upside-down hedgehog from every angle, almost as if she were using a magnifying glass, and felt a little embarrassed.
The upside-down hedgehog: "Hey... watch the time!"
Yuan Qingli ignored its voice.
The research was very dedicated.
It was muttering to itself, which made the hedgehog's whole body tremble with fear.
"These quills are different from those of a regular hedgehog. If we could pluck them all off, we could make them into concealed weapons, and they would be very effective."
"The texture is different too. It would be better if it were bigger; it could be made into a rapier for easy carrying..."
Yuan Qingli sighed softly, feeling a little regretful.
The audience members in the back row.
"Bo Zijin, is the hedgehog getting bigger?"
"Yes, her skin is still turning red."
"Damn it!" Lu Xingyun shouted, "Yuan Qingli, the hedgehog is strange! Be careful!"
The moment she heard Lu Xingyun shout, Yuan Qingli originally wanted to throw away the hedgehog in her hand, but in that instant, she had a thought to go with the flow.
The hedgehog rapidly grew larger in her palm, like an inflated balloon.
The thorns became sharper and thicker.
Its power is also visibly increasing.
It even pierced the rubber glove that Yuan Qingli was wearing!
A slight ooze of blood was visible.
Yuan Qingli remained expressionless, focusing intently on one of the thorns.
Just as the hedgehog was about to grow larger than Yuan Qingli, she swiftly grabbed the thorn and pulled it back forcefully.
Pull it out suddenly!
“It’s not a needle…” Lu Xingyun could see everything clearly from where he was standing. He didn’t understand Yuan Qingli’s intention.
Yuan Qingli did not show disappointment on her face. Instead, she touched the thorn, which was comparable to an ordinary longsword, as if it were a treasure, with a smile in her eyes.
But the smile only lasted for a fleeting moment.
The hedgehog in front of me was no longer cute; it had become increasingly eerie.
Its eyes were bloodshot, and a stench of red mist, like a clump of decay, seemed to emanate from its body.
The hedgehog exuded a strong, scalding heat.
Enough to burn a person!
Yuan Qingli steadied herself and quickly created distance.
The ends of her hair, which had been flying up, were burned into curls and emitted a slightly burnt smell.
"I've used up all three chances and couldn't find the needle. What a pity!" The eerie face spoke the sweetest words in the most adorable voice.
Yuan Qingli admitted that for a moment she really wanted to keep the hedgehog as a pet.
But it only lasted for a moment.
In an instant, the hedgehog closed in. Its scalding breath enveloped her, and cold sweat rolled down her back without warning.
The extremely high temperature made Yuan Qingli feel dizzy, as if she had been exposed to the sun.
She pricked herself with a thorn in her hand, barely managing to regain some consciousness.
“The hedgehog’s transformation has a time limit.” Lu Xingyun supported Yuan Qingli from behind and stated his discovery, “Its body is slowly getting smaller.”
Yuan Qingli understood: "But we will also fail in the first round of the game."
