Chapter 124 - UNINTENTIONAL DOG FOOD (2/2)

Duan Yu smiled back.  ”Yes, it was all nonsense.  I was just trying to create rapport among us.  After all, we're now temporary team mates.”

Oh, so it was just a joke?  Shen Ji Yun finally didn't think about it anymore and just put it behind him.  ”Let's collate all the information we currently have.”

Meanwhile, in a certain yellow door…

Bai Ze was standing with a group of students behind the teaching building of a certain high school.  They were there for the test of courage the whole class had decided.  Yes, this was the setting of the door he went into.

It was the door for the fifth choice; [A student's hellish paradise].  He actually planned to choose the fourth one – [A stage for the brightest stars.]  But he and his big, fat, fingers failed him and accidentally clicked the fifth one.  Now, he's here playing the role of the class bully.

There wasn't any mention of any mystery yet.  But he was certain that whatever it was, it would happen during this test of courage.  And in some way or the other, it would have something to do with this group of students.  He was fine with that.  He was just kind of depressed that none of his team mates seemed to be here.

He had observed each and every student's face since he arrived in this door standing in their midst.  And so far, he only recognized one-two students who somehow looked familiar.  He's pretty sure they're among the players who attended the King's birthday event.  If none of his team mates were here, then he'd just do this on his own.

”Wanna team up with me?” asked suddenly by a rather sweet voice with a hint of raspiness in it.

Bai Ze looked down and saw a girl with a short bob cut hair.  At first glance, one would probably think of her as plain.  But if you look closely, you would find that she possessed a certain kind of charm.  It's probably because of her eyes.  They were the only features on her face that were truly out of the ordinary.  It was like that of a cat's – big and the corners slightly tilted upwards.

”You're White Marsh, right?  I'm Catnip from team Sirens,” the girl said, further introducing herself.  ”So, do you want to form a team with me?”

Catnip?  That's a very apt name.  Wait- team Sirens?  He looked suspiciously at the girl.  ”You weren't ordered by your captain to try to get closer to the members of my team, weren't you?”

Even if the captain of Sirens always acted like an elegant queen whenever they crossed paths, he had long noticed the girl's fascination towards his friend, Shen Ji Yun.  Of course, Shen Ji Yun never noticed it, being the big emotionless blockhead that he was.

Catnip seemed to know what he meant because she replied, ”Nope.  She didn't even know that your team and your captain would attend this event.”

”Then why?”

Because of the beautiful elf, Noctis!  She wanted to know how good his relationship was with YUN.  When she watched the two earlier, she noticed how good they looked together.  So, she couldn't help but want to ship them.  Of course Xia Li wouldn't tell this directly to White Marsh.

”Because you look very powerful and very reliable,” she only said.

Bai Ze's chest rose a bit because of pride.  Well, he was indeed powerful and reliable.  ”I'll only agree if I'm the leader.”

”No problem,” she said and smiled like a contented cat that was given a treat.

Looking at that smile, Bai Ze suddenly had an urge to pet her.  He shook his head.  What was that just now?  He suddenly had goosebumps just by thinking of it.
