The Mirror Ghost didn't answer Yin Zhu's question directly. It just scratched its head, looking confused and bewildered: "What supervisor?"
Yin Zhu immediately became anxious:
"Don't make that kind of movement in my cup, it gives the impression that you're scratching your dandruff into it!"
"Are you out of your mind! I already told you I don't have a physical body!" Jing Gui never expected that Yin Zhu's focus would be on this, and felt that all his acting skills had been wasted, so he was furious.
It leaped from the corn juice onto Yin Zhu's spoon: "Is this okay now?"
"Hmm... no matter what you say, I think Wei Chuxing is the manager of Daydream Amusement Park." Yin Zhu stirred the corn juice with a spoon, creating a small vortex in the glass.
"You...don't be so ridiculous, gurgle gurgle gurgle..."
I couldn't hear what was said after that.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Yin Zhu took out her spoon and said, "Alright, let's talk about this seriously. Don't pretend with me."
...
"That Wei Chuxing must be the manager of Daydream Amusement Park, right?"
On the official live streaming website of the Strange Tales World, which is far away on Earth, someone posted this question in the comments, which immediately made some viewers who had already seen this part of the "plot" excitedly slap their thighs: It's my turn to show off!
"Unsurprisingly, yes. The supervisor the Chosen Ones from the Lighthouse Nation encountered was named 'Andevik,' which translates to 'unawakened.'"
"Not only in the United States, but also in countries that use the language system of the Golden Lion Kingdom, all the chosen ones who can go to the amusement park are all named Andevik. It seems to be a personal naming preference of this manager. Other countries are probably the same."
"Speaking of which, in the other countries' versions, isn't the kindergarten director Bai Hai's name [Cerine White]?"
"I don't know, there aren't that many chosen ones who get to choose kindergarten."
"By the way, where did the chosen ones from other countries go? Anyone have any spoilers?"
"Spoiler alert! What should the chosen one do to clear the amusement park level?"
"Don't be a freeloader, just search on the forum."
"Can any viewers who have been following the show explain the relationship between Mirror Ghost and the amusement park manager? Why does it always try to mislead Yin Basui?"
That's a good question, because most people in the live stream didn't understand it either.
"It's normal for weirdos to do anything, right?"
"It's all weird."
"Indeed, have you all forgotten the seventh of the ten basic rules of Sin City because Yin Zhu and this guy get along so well?"
"What rules?"
Just like offering a pillow when someone is dozing off, the user who started the topic immediately copied and pasted their pre-saved answer when a freeloader asked a question in the comments:
"【7. In Sin City, do not trust anyone or anything deceitful.】"
"Actually, I think the Mirror Ghost can still be trusted. Its master and Sister Sun are currently allies, and it has no direct conflict with Sister Sun. Don't forget, the Mirror Ghost clearly didn't get along with the manager of Daydream Amusement Park before, so even if it wanted to betray them, it wouldn't do so at this time."
“I think Jinggui is very unreliable. We should reverse our thinking. The most stable alliance is between the managers. They can keep to themselves and not fight each other for land. Once the manager of the temporary apartment turns against us, Jinggui will betray Yin Zhu directly.”
"Mirror Ghost is definitely disloyal, I guarantee it with my ten years of experience as a traitor!"
"So, does everyone on Earth know that Wei Chuxing is the manager of the amusement park now, and is he the only one who thinks no one else knows?"
"Yeah, it seems so, kind of cute."
"A naive and innocent manager x a shrewd and calculating chosen one, tsk tsk tsk, so appealing, I'll just ship them for a second."
"Bumping into everything will only harm you!"
"Exactly, exactly, Yin Zhu Shui Xian is the best shipper!"
"Why doesn't the official reason for reporting in the comments include forced pairings? I really want to report these comments that are always randomly shipping people..."
"Creativity and innovation are free!"
"Forget reporting this pairing, there's no reason to even be considered inappropriate. I strongly demand that the comments section add reasons for reporting!!!"
Unbeknownst to them, the comments section began to sway in increasingly bizarre directions, and the previously mentioned "Mirror Ghost misleading Yin Ba Sui" was because Mirror Ghost kept trying to fool Yin Zhu into believing that "Wei Chu Xing is not the manager of Daydream Amusement Park".
Yin Zhu took a sip of corn juice from her cup and nodded: "You're right, but..."
“I genuinely believe that working with him will be very helpful for you to leave this place. You have to trust me, I won't harm you,” Mirror Ghost said with utmost sincerity. “But you really shouldn't treat him as your supervisor…”
"I understand, so it's fine as long as Wei Chuxing isn't the supervisor, right?" Yin Zhu only heard the last sentence.
“Yes!” Jing Gui nodded quickly.
“Okay, then let me explain why I think he’s the supervisor.” Yin Zhu put down her cup, wiped her mouth with a tissue on the table, and continued, “There are only a few living people coming every day, so I’m afraid we’ve already attracted his attention as soon as we walked in.”
However, he didn't pay much attention to me at first. At least, he hadn't noticed me when I came out of the funhouse mirror booth, nor when I got off the carousel, which means his attention came with a condition.
Seeing the mirror spirit covering its face with a "hopeless" expression, Yin Zhu continued to tell it, "If I'm not mistaken, the prerequisite for being noticed by him should be [three], right? As long as the number of sign-ins exceeds half, you will directly attract the supervisor's attention."
“…Yes.” Mirror Ghost no longer wanted to struggle.
“He paid far less attention to the bob-haired guy than to me. Judging from the check-in at the time, the bob-haired guy had only been to one amusement park ride besides the clown, so he didn’t meet his requirements for attention.” Yin Zhu tried hard to recall the situation at the time. “So, he probably cast a wide net and tricked every tourist who could survive three rides.”
"So, guess how much of his story is true?" Mirror Ghost completely gave up on misleading Yin Zhu and directly asked the question he was curious about—how much could Yin Zhu possibly know?
However, Yin Zhu's answer tells Jing Gui that Sister Sun is still Sister Sun; brains are something that's rented, and they have to be returned when they expire.
"Uh, I don't remember what he said."
"Huh???" The Mirror Ghost's voice trailed off, enough to show how utterly devastated it was: "In such a dangerous place, the supervisor is practically begging you to take the intelligence, and you don't even bother to remember it?"
"No, I remember a little bit, but basically nothing." Yin Zhu stuck out her tongue and acted cute, then suddenly seemed like a different person, saying seriously, "I already know he's lying, so naturally I don't take his words to heart. I was so honest with him, and he just kept making things up for me. My heart—was hurt terribly by him!"
"We agreed to have a serious talk, so don't tell lame jokes at a time like this!"
Jing Gui suddenly realized that he had been too complacent for too long. Because he had gotten used to being friends with Yin Zhu, he hadn't had any conflicts with her for too long, to the point that he had forgotten how much this person named Yin Zhu drove him crazy during their first meeting.
