"The game of cat and mouse begins!"
Xu Mo was stunned in an instant, who was talking?
He turned his head to look left and right, there was no one around.
Except for the woman in the trunk of the car.
But the woman's mouth was taped shut with black duct tape, clearly unable to make any sound.
Could it be an auditory hallucination?
Just as Xu Mo was about to continue driving forward, the voice rang out again...
"In this game of cat and mouse, your choice is..."
"Choice 1: Be the cat."
"Choice 2: Be the mouse."
It wasn't an auditory hallucination!
Now Xu Mo finally figured out where the voice was coming from. It seemed to appear out of thin air next to his ear, or one could say in his mind.
What was going on?
Xu Mo's eyes were filled with shock. This was the first time in his life he had encountered something like this. What made him even more surprised and strange was the information conveyed by the voice.
A game of cat and mouse?
Be the cat or the mouse?
This seemed to be a game of choices.
Everything that had happened since he got off work tonight was making Xu Mo's mind spin nonstop.
He had never been so stimulated in his two lifetimes.
How to choose?
Xu Mo started thinking.
However, his contemplative expression appeared as something else in the eyes of the livestream viewers.
"Why did this guy stop?"
"Is he scared?"
"Definitely, this kid is probably scared stupid."
"Going from a law-abiding citizen to a wanted fugitive all of a sudden, if it was me, I'd probably be dumbfounded too."
"Haha, I just love seeing these challengers' dumbfounded expressions when they see the news that they are wanted."
"I just hope this guy can last a little longer, otherwise the show will be too short and boring."
Amidst lines and lines of barrage comments, Xu Mo quickly made his choice.
"I choose to be the cat!"
He recited it silently in his mind.
The next second, the voice in his mind rang out again.
"You have chosen to be the cat!"
"You have obtained a two-for-one reward."
"Rule as the cat: In this game of cat and mouse, every time you successfully fool the people chasing you, you will receive a corresponding reward."
There's a reward for fooling the people chasing me?
What does that mean?
Does it require Xu Mo to fool the officers who came to arrest him?
Xu Mo felt a little headache coming on. No sane person would do that. That would be asking to die.
He was already falsely accused as a wanted fugitive for no reason. If he did that, the consequences would probably be even more severe.
He rubbed his temples. The voice in his mind continued.
"Please select your initial reward."
"1. Colt Model 1873 Single Action Army revolver with five rounds."
"2. Choose to increase brain cell activity by 2 points."
The voice nearby made Xu Mo fall silent.
He suddenly felt a little absurd.
Because both reward options seemed somewhat unrealistic and disconnected from his life.
How come he felt this was a little far-fetched?
This sounded just like a game.
Would these options really work if chosen?
Xu Mo thought for a moment. If the rewards were real, having a gun would clearly be too conspicuous. Carrying a gun around would be a hot potato. He knew full well how strict gun control was in this country. If anyone discovered he had a gun, that would be an extremely troublesome and thorny issue.
Not to mention Xu Mo was currently in "wanted" status.
So the choice was simple.
Xu Mo directly chose the second option, "I choose to increase brain cell activity by 2 points."
He was testing this out, testing whether this reward was real or not.
Almost immediately after he made his choice:
Thump Thump!
Xu Mo felt his brain seemed to pulsate, as if an electrocardiogram flashed through his mind. His whole mind felt refreshingly cool and exceptionally comfortable, like he had applied menthol oil but countless times stronger.
Under these circumstances, he discovered his vision had improved.
His originally slightly near-sighted eyes were now incredibly clear.
The whole world became clear again before his eyes.
This long-lost sense of clarity excited Xu Mo!
His brain also became extremely clear and active, his whole body felt exceptionally spirited, as if filled with unlimited momentum.
He had just gotten off work after a tiring day, and was already feeling mentally exhausted.
But now that grogginess completely disappeared. This feeling was truly too comfortable.
He didn't expect the "two-for-one" reward option to actually be real!
At this moment Xu Mo felt extremely excited. His breathing even became hurried. This excitement and thrill made him temporarily forget about the female celebrity in the trunk.
Because this was a bodily change!
This meant that this game of cat and mouse could enhance his physical abilities!
This was a game!
A game he couldn't comprehend.
A game of choices!
After figuring all this out, Xu Mo's hands trembling slightly as they lay on the steering wheel, partly because of the tension from being wanted, but more so from excitement!
His excited expression was naturally captured by the hidden cameras in the car and broadcasted live in the streaming room.
Everyone saw how excited Xu Mo was!
"What's with this guy?"
"Looks like he's laughing?"
"He can still laugh and be so excited after becoming 'wanted'?"
"There's definitely something off about this dude!"
"This challenger seems a little different."
"Could it be something wrong with his brain?"
The viewers were a bit surprised by Xu Mo's elated expression. Of course, if Xu Mo had chosen the Colt Model 1873 Single Action Army revolver, they would not only be surprised - the entire streaming room, even the program team, would have exploded.
At the same time,
many viewers noticed there was movement on the second channel of the Sky Eye Action livestream.
The investigation team had begun taking action!
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
iving with nine beautiful women. [Ding! Welcome back to the Joyous Sect, Host…] Lin Yu: ??? I’m clearly in a shared rental, but you’re saying I’m in the Joyous Sect? Watering plants is now [Tending to Spiritual Flora]? Cooking becomes [Researching Elixirs]? Making the bed turns into [Setting Up Formations]? A gentle and innocent auntie, twin classmates, a mysterious hacker girl on leave, a severely socially anxious artist, an elementary school Chinese teacher, a community hospital nurse, a pet shop owner, an antique clock restorer… This system… is kinda interesting.
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
