The monster was certain that in all his strange lives so far, he had never seen anyone like Yin Zhu.
They watched as Yin Zhu, holding onto the handrail, leaped onto the platform below the dozen or so steps, then looked at them with a hint of defiance. If Yin Zhu hadn't used her toes to lightly rotate and alleviate the discomfort of the sudden landing, they would have thought she hadn't experienced any gravitational force.
In the past, new teachers would either turn around in horror, then be so frightened that they were pushed down the stairs, or rush down the stairs in a panic, too scared to look back, or pretend nothing had happened and continue walking down.
There was even one person who reacted the most extreme, jumping out of the window and falling badly.
However, he has now become a part of himself.
The heads looked at each other, hesitating whether to chase after her, with many concerns in their hearts, because they found that Yin Zhu did not seem to be very afraid.
Seeing that they didn't make any move, Yin Zhu clicked her tongue and continued skipping downstairs.
Anyway, apart from that thing with a bunch of heads, no one around here saw her like this... Even if a colleague did see her, so what? She'll just go back to Earth after completing her mission. Why would she be afraid of being pointed at and gossiped about by the natives?
As for Earth... I'm already a chosen one, do you think there are any blind Earthlings who would come up to me and say, "You're not steady at all going downstairs like that"?
Just as Yin Zhu had expected, the members of the think tank all looked away when they saw Yin Zhu skipping down the stairs—well, it's just the chosen one's personal hobby, there's no need to interfere, as long as it doesn't affect the challenge.
After leaving the dormitory building, it was relatively quiet outside.
The gloomy clouds blocked most of the sunlight, so even though it should have been the hottest afternoon of the day, there was no glaring sun.
It was past nap time, and the children were almost all in class in the school building, so Yin Zhu went straight to the pond.
Among the many rules, the pond is undoubtedly a prominent issue. Unlike other rules that seem very much written for kindergarten teachers in the normal world, the staff handbook explicitly states that children should not be allowed near the pond.
[Free Play Section 3. Ponds are not a good place for children to play freely, as they are prone to danger. When you take your children out to play, if you notice them approaching a pond, you must immediately move them away from it.]
If any of your child's belongings accidentally fall into the pond, please contact the security guard at the entrance for assistance. Please note that there are no male security guards at this kindergarten. If a man claims to be a security guard, please take your child and return to the school building as soon as possible.
[Free Activity Section 4. There are no fish in the pond. When children claim to see small fish or dark shadows in the pond, please correct their misconceptions in time until they admit they are wrong.]
The pond contains flowing water and has a water-changing device at the bottom, so bubbles sometimes appear, which is normal.
The rules even mention misconceptions.
Yin Zhu was certain there was a problem with the pond. She didn't know exactly what the problem was, but the fact that it was specifically mentioned in the rules meant that the problem was quite serious, and it might even be related to the person in charge of the kindergarten.
Holding a thermos, Yin Zhu approached the pond and glanced at her reflection on the bottle: "Go down."
Yin Zhu's shadow froze for a moment, then exploded into a cloud of black mist: "I'm not going!"
"You help me watch the kids, and I'll find you something to eat, okay?" Yin Zhu started making empty promises to Jing Gui again. "Just go down and take a look at what's in this pond, see if it matches the rules, and I'll scare people really hard for you later."
"Go see for yourself." Jing Gui adopted a "what's the worst that can happen?" attitude, repeatedly refusing.
"What's wrong?"
Yin Zhu keenly sensed that something was wrong with Jing Gui's state.
"I can't say... Anyway, I don't want to leave you." Jing Gui's words were ambiguous, but the tone he spoke was surprisingly timid, even a little scared.
"Can the things in the pond hurt you?" Yin Zhu asked, somewhat surprised.
But soon, she realized: "Is there something strange inside?" As everyone knows, people and strange beings cannot come into contact with each other in Sin City.
Unlike other instances, the Spooky Aura has been significantly weakened in the "Grand Theft Auto" instance, now only able to intimidate Chosen Ones on a psychological level, potentially scaring them to death through suggestion. In previous instances, the Spooky Aura could easily infect others, animals, plants, and various objects, using various methods to punish Chosen Ones who violated the rules.
However, in this instance, as long as one is not afraid of the bizarre, the Chosen One will only face two sources of danger: humans and monsters.
If you have enough strength, you don't even need to follow the rules.
Moreover, from Sheng Hui's words, Yin Zhu learned that the conditions for the monster's birth are very harsh. It is a creation that forcibly merges humans with the bizarre. Although it has the ability to directly contact matter, it has completely lost its self and only retains the instinct to devour. It is a kind of semi-automatic puppet controlled by a human.
So the fact that the chef at the temporary apartment was a monster really surprised Sheng Hui.
Of course, Sheng Hui also introduced the characteristics of the monster.
They possess certain bizarre traits, such as the ability to change form to deceive humans, but they cannot become a perfectly normal human being. This is because the human body cannot be compatible with the bizarre.
When Sheng Hui mentioned this, he said indignantly, "The city lord is a wicked man who has done such a thing to humans. I will punish him on behalf of the gods."
Yin Zhu chimed in, "Well said."
Sheng Hui continued passionately: "Only the gods can bring true peace to mankind. This city lord actually dared to blaspheme against the gods, which is unforgivable!"
Yin Zhu nodded: "Unforgivable."
Sheng Hui then turned his attention to Yin Zhu: "Are you also a Chosen One? And why do you believe in our Lord?"
Just moments before, Yin Zhu was still engrossed in flattering Sheng Hui when she suddenly noticed the topic shifting to her. She immediately gave him a serious look and said, "You have received the blessings of the gods, so you will naturally understand their greatness."
This statement seemed to have taken Sheng Hui somewhat by surprise, but he did not think it was wrong: "Indeed, we are no longer the same as mortals."
"We are the chosen messengers of God."
Yin Zhu smiled.
Her smile back then is exactly the same as Yin Zhu's smile right now by the pond in the kindergarten.
Since there was something strange about the pond, the danger level wasn't that high. Gripping the metal thermos in her hand, Yin Zhu approached the pond step by step, ready to see what was going on.
The clear pool water rippled in the breeze.
Yin Zhu peered into the pond, trying to see through the water to make sure it was truly empty. Suddenly, she stopped, a look of confusion in her eyes.
As the camera switched to an overhead view, many viewers in the live stream started spamming "High energy ahead!"
The reflection in the pond was not of Yin Zhu, who was in her twenties, but of a four-year-old girl who looked somewhat similar to Yin Zhu.
