When 108 heard the host's threat, it subconsciously shrank its neck. It soon realized that it had no neck. When it raised its eyes, it saw the host looking at it ferociously, as if it would be killed immediately if it didn't give a reasonable explanation.
108 really wants to say that it doesn’t know who the male protagonist is, so it added finding the male protagonist to the task.
Seeing that the system was scratching its head for a long time without coming up with anything to say, Song Sanniang waved her hand, turned over and wrapped herself in the new quilt she took out from the space.
"Never mind, never mind."
108 was a bit confused. It had already prepared itself for a beating from the host, and now it was just being let off like that? It was clearly a good thing, but why did it feel so uncomfortable? Did the host think it was useless and didn't even want to look at it, perhaps just giving up on it? Or...
The system was full of random thoughts, imagining all sorts of miserable scenes of itself dying and being torn into pieces.
At this time, it was surprised to find that the host had just fallen asleep, which was not what it thought at all. It quietly floated onto the bed and lay in the corner waiting, but was actually frantically thinking of a way. It felt that it could still rescue the host.
When Song Sanniang woke up again, it was already the next day. She wanted to continue sleeping, but her stomach was rumbling with hunger. She had no choice but to irritably throw off the quilt and get up to eat.
The house is small, and you can see everything inside at a glance.
This was the house that the original owner, Song Jiangli, rented with the last money she had after arriving in the capital of Qinglong Kingdom. It was also her final shelter.
Song Sanniang looked around and could tell that the house was completely barren. Apart from the bed she was lying on, there was no other furniture. And in her memory, the tattered quilt she had been covering herself with was one that the owner had left here out of pity for her.
Song Sanniang picked up a piece of food at random from the space. It was still steaming hot when she took it out. While eating the rice in the bowl, she was thinking about what to do next.
She soon came up with her next plan. She came to her senses, quickly finished the meal in her hand, and threw the bowl back into the space.
Well, now she is fully recovered and full of energy.
108 was awakened by Song Sanniang's movement of getting up. It thought the host was going to attack it, so it was frightened and immediately turned its body into nothingness and hid.
In the corner, 108 carefully observed the host's reaction. As long as the situation was not right, he was ready to hide in Song Sanniang's soul for refuge. He did not realize that entering the host's soul to avoid the host was completely walking into a trap.
108 felt relieved immediately when he saw that the host didn't even glance at him and was relatively stable.
That's not right. It suddenly realized that it had already figured out a solution. There was no need to be afraid.
Song Sanniang was completely unaware that the system was performing a solo act in that corner, with a rich psychological life.
After a night of buffering, Song Sanniang felt that she had calmed down now. Looking at this mission objectively, putting aside the issue of having to find the mission target on her own, this mission was quite challenging. Just treat it as a little fun in the routine mission.
She concentrated on thinking. Based on her experience in previous missions and the plot, she probably already had a key suspect. Others might be alternative candidates for the male protagonist. She happened to be near the capital, so it would be convenient for her to investigate.
Song Sanniang looked out the bright window. It was a good day today.
At this moment, she suddenly heard the sound of 108 coming from the corner. She turned around and looked at the system sitting on the quilt like a hen making a nest.
108 saw Song Sanniang looking over and said stubbornly, "Host, I stayed up late last night looking through the items in the system mall and found an item that can help you identify who the male lead is."
Upon hearing this, Song Sanniang raised her eyebrows slightly.
"When did this item appear in the mall? I don't remember it."
108 froze. Oh no! It didn't expect that the host had memorized all the items in the system mall. What should it do now?
Seeing that Song Sanniang's eyes were becoming more and more dangerous, 108 decided to confess and get a lighter sentence.
"Master, look, this is my system mall. I only discovered that I had unlocked a 'system' mall after entering this world. I saw that you were in a bad mood, and there wasn't anything good in it, so I didn't report it to you in time."
Song Sanniang accessed the system sharing permissions and glanced at the system mall. Her hands kept moving as she opened her own system mall panel. After comparing them, she found that the goods and props inside were completely different from those in her mall.
After a careful look, Song Sanniang's brows slowly relaxed. The functions of these props were very limited, and according to the description, they required systematic operation.
The items at the top of the list are actually system annual inspection cards, system beauty cards, system appearance skins, etc. Most of these are used on the system, and only a very few are helpful for tasks.
There are only five of them.
The others were not yet available. Song Sanniang took a quick look at them, looking at things like protective barriers and one-time teleportation items specifically for mission worlds...
The only thing that helps her in her mission is the male protagonist's Werewolf Killing Halo: the system can recognize the person within one meter of the male protagonist. If it is not the male protagonist, the scanning object will have a ten-point aversion value towards the first prop holder it sees.
A few minor flaws, but not a big deal.
This item has been blacked out, which means the system has already redeemed it. She looked down to see the points required. Wow, it’s a bit expensive.
It is estimated that the system has almost used up all the points allocated for the tasks in recent times. Song Sanniang is not the kind of person who will desperately exploit the system, so she sent the system a small red envelope of 666 points.
"Be good, I appreciate your kindness to me. This is a small reward for you."
When Song Sanniang discovered the "System Mall", she redeemed it immediately, so she tearfully accepted the host's consolation prize after losing 108's small stash.
Now with this prop, Song Sanniang is more confident about the next journey of "looking for the male lead".
At night, Song Sanniang put on the clothes she found in the space, black clothes, black pants, black socks and a pair of black cloth shoes. After being fully armed, she set off towards the imperial palace in the capital.
108 watched helplessly as the host, wrapped up tightly, sneaked into the palace. This scene seemed strangely familiar.
When the host did this, the subsequent result was that the male protagonist's plan to fake his death failed, and he kicked the doll directly. The host successfully completed the task from an alternative angle. Now the host has repeated the same trick, and it is now panicked.
The whole system was in chaos, but Song Sanniang was completely unaware of it.
Song Sanniang had a clear goal. After entering the palace, she first went to the residences of the empress's concubines and checked them one by one to make sure that the male protagonist was not among them.
Next is the residence of the princess and prince.
