After returning to her room, Yin Zhu didn't rush to sleep. Instead, she sorted through the clues in her mind and planned her next move.
Meanwhile, the comments section was buzzing with noise.
"The chosen one's parents both work at a research institute! Who said they couldn't find any clues by communicating with family members before? That was just a smokescreen."
"Am I the only one who thinks that second sister is strange? She mysteriously disappeared, and her family can't mention her. It's also weird that she let her younger brother move into her room, while everyone else acts like nothing's wrong. There must be something fishy about this."
"Yuanfang, what do you think?"
"Dead old jokes suddenly attacked me.jpg"
"Oh right, no wonder I felt something was off about my family before. After all, the natives are so intelligent, how could they not realize that their family members had been transported by the Chosen Ones? It turns out everyone was acting! So that's how it is!"
"Is the person upstairs using 2G? That was already being discussed in the comments twenty minutes ago."
"Going to the research institute to face the boss head-on? So Yin Zhu is planning to achieve a perfect victory?"
It wasn't just the viewers in the live chat who asked this question; some members of the Chinese military's advisory group also made this guess.
"Not necessarily." Xia Qingkong shook her head. "Given Yin Zhu's current mindset, she might move away with her family instead of confronting the boss directly. Besides, she's missing the most important thing."
"These are props from the principal's office, right?" Han Jiuying flipped through the documents.
In the Chosen One's Record of Perfect Clearance in Sakura Country, Hirano Sane accidentally entered the school cafeteria due to a bizarre scheme. After seeing the cafeteria's rules, she discovered the loopholes and successfully escaped with several classmates, where they encountered the principal.
This person does not appear in other records of individuals escaping the cafeteria alone.
"That's right. The principal, appreciating her composure and teamwork skills, took her to his office and gave her a red seed. In the end, she took this seed to the research institute and burned away the [green] essence that wanted to devour everything."
"However, that item can also be bought from the convenience store. You need to trade it with the store manager on the afternoon of the fourth day, when the green plants displayed in the store wither and die. But judging from the black screen after he arrived at the school, he must have gone to the research institute through some special method." Di Jia added the perfect way for the chosen one of the Lighthouse Nation to pass the test.
"So far, the news from the United States says that Thompson is perfectly normal after returning to Earth and has not been mysteriously replaced."
“So we can basically rule out that possibility.” An Zhi pinched the bridge of her nose.
"What do you mean by 'normal'?" Xia Qingkong interrupted slightly. "He started challenging from the third instance. What did he do when he returned to Blue Star last time?"
"It was just a normal party, a life of revelry. He's the young master of a conglomerate, not valued at home, so he has a lot of freedom and his partner isn't fixed."
The secretary gave a tactful reply.
After hearing this, Xia Qingkong lightly tapped the table with her index finger, seemingly lost in thought.
On the screen in the conference room, Yin Zhu appeared to be asleep.
Knock knock knock.
Knock knock knock.
"Wake up! It's so late! Time to go to school!"
The knocking and her mother's voice woke Yin Zhu up. In her dazed state, Yin Zhu even forgot that she had transmigrated into the world of ghost stories. Her consciousness was still stuck in the scene in her dream where her boss was standing behind her, watching her rush to finish her manuscript.
"Get up now!"
The noise outside grew louder and louder, finally reminding Yin Zhu of her current predicament.
She subconsciously raised her watch and glanced at it.
Sunlight streamed into the room through the curtains, and Yin Zhu could clearly see the clock pointing to 2:02.
Did I actually sleep until the afternoon?
Yin Zhu frowned as she looked at the door, which was shaking as her mother pounded on it.
Just kidding, how could a real mother let her child miss school and only wake her up in the afternoon? Besides, they work at a research institute, so they must be working during the day too. How could they stay at home all the time?
Importantly, Yin Zhu felt a sharp pain in her eyes, as if she hadn't slept enough and had been woken up.
Time may lie, but the body doesn't.
Yin Zhu turned over, ignoring the knocking on the door, and covered her head with the blanket, treating the knocking as a special kind of ASMR sleep aid.
After falling back asleep, the light disappeared, and the knocking gradually subsided.
...
"Mom: How can you sleep? How can you sleep at your age? Have you no self-control?!"
“I still get a fright every time I see this.”
"That's really cunning. Trying to trick the chosen one into waking up in the middle of the night is against the rules."
"Does everyone stay up all night watching live streams instead of sleeping?"
Can't sleep

"I'm just a complete bystander, this is my first time watching. By the way, what happens when the door opens?"
"Monsters will grab the chosen ones and tear them apart. See the live stream of the first chosen one from the Peacock Kingdom."
"Isn't that a complete trap?"
"yes."
...
When she was woken up by the alarm clock, Yin Zhu groggily glanced at her watch.
6:30 a.m.
That's definitely a standard student schedule; it's really not easy.
Getting dressed, going out to wash up, greeting her family... Yin Zhu acted as if she had lived here for a long time, her behavior was very natural.
Her brother watched her next move with a bit of curiosity.
Sure enough, during breakfast, Yin Zhu began her performance: she was very obviously absent-minded and depressed, as if she could practically write "I have a problem" on her face.
"..."
The mother coughed lightly twice and brought up the subject: "Xiaozhu, what's wrong?"
Yin Zhu looked up, her face full of struggle: "I don't want to go to school. A lot of my classmates are wearing green clothes."
