A mysterious realm descends, and I defy fate in comics.

Chapter 167 The Real Danger

—You will die once you are targeted.

In an instant, many terrifying scenes that Jiang Xingni had seen before flashed through his mind.

Those games that flash through my mind, those movies that were born to scare me.

To be honest, this setting sounds a lot like a boss in a game.

It's the kind of boss where you need to reload your save before a big battle, and you can die repeatedly because of some wrong action.

Jiang Xingni fell into deep thought.

She didn't ask any further questions, but instead started searching for related information online.

Lin Hongguang nodded: "Xiao Jiming, I have already sent the relevant information about your group to your email address."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jiming made an "OK" gesture.

However, their first reaction was not to look at the task requirements that Xiao Jiming had received, but to ask Lin Hongguang for details.

"Being targeted means death, that sounds like a tough challenge—are we really sending Jiang Xingni and Xie Yungui alone?"

Song Juexiao was the first to ask a question.

Pei Zhaoye and He Jingtong, whose lines had been stolen, exchanged a glance and did not continue to ask the question.

"They're both precognitive ability users." Song Juexiao paused. "Neither of them are main combat personnel. Are they going on this kind of mission together?"

—Moreover, Jiang Xingni had only been exposed to the world behind the curtain for a month.

"And Jiang Xingni is leading the team..." Song Juexiao certainly didn't doubt Jiang Xingni's abilities.

Even when Xiao Jiming was leading the team, Jiang Xingni took over the leadership with great ease.

There wasn't the slightest hesitation or agonizing over it.

When she's in control of her own life, Jiang Xingni is even less likely to doubt her abilities or feel that she's not suitable for anything.

But Song Juexiao was still worried nonetheless.

"Don't worry, after all, it's the capital, so we can get the most support," Lin Hongguang said, which could be considered a reassurance.

"Furthermore, the investigators' initial investigations suggest that the harm is not as serious as rumored."

"As for the specific information about the mission, I have also sent it to Jiang Xingni's email address."

The group of people were slightly relieved and went over to see the task requirements that Xiao Jiming had received.

Only Pei Zhaoye took the opportunity to walk to Jiang Xingni's side.

Purple eyes stared at Jiang Xing, and her earring swayed with his movements.

"It's been quite a while, hasn't it?" Jiang Xingni tilted his head and smiled.

—It's not like we haven't seen each other for a long time.

At most, Jiang Xingni had almost forgotten what Pei Zhaoye's character was actually like.

Pei Zhaoye's gaze shifted from Jiang Xingni's face to the earrings hanging on her ears.

"I thought you wouldn't wear it," Pei Zhaoye replied, seemingly unrelated to the question.

Xie Yungui had already walked up to Jiang Xingni's side.

He shrugged, also thinking of the instance where he hadn't had a chance to appear last time.

The progress at the Fourth Middle School is really too fast.

Once inside the instance, electronic devices are essentially cut off from the outside world.

By the time Pei Zhaoye was finally able to contact Xiao Jiming and the others, the information he could find out was basically the same as what Xiao Jiming and the others knew.

Moreover, the entire plot has come to an end.

"Do you need me to check?" Pei Zhaoye leaned closer.

Only now did he reveal his true purpose in seeking out Jiang Xingni.

His purple eyes stared intently at Jiang Xing.

Jiang Xingni shook his head: "I'll contact you when I need you—if I can't find you then, it just means there's no use in me contacting you now."

She spoke casually, seemingly unconcerned about the life-threatening risks she and Xie Yungui faced.

Pei Zhaoye didn't know what Jiang Xingni meant by those words.

He stared at Jiang Xing for a moment, then said quietly, "Yeah, after all, you don't need me as an intelligence source now, do you?"

Jiang Xingni didn't understand why he suddenly said that.

When he looked up, he could only see Pei Zhaoye and Xie Yungui exchanging a glance.

From the analysis of micro-expressions, Jiang Xingni could vaguely see that the two were at odds.

She pondered for a moment.

Then, facing the hopeful system, he explained in his mind, "It must be because the screenwriter is randomly pairing up couples again."

system:……?

Jiang Xingni felt that her idea made a lot of sense—if the screenwriter deliberately didn't want Jiang Xingni to get the relevant information, then she wouldn't be able to get any useful answers from the identity of "Jiang Xingni".

She is now seeking help from Pei Zhaoye, but Pei Zhaoye will also be unable to find out the truth for various reasons.

It will be even simpler after we separate.

All Jiang Xingni needs to do is disconnect from the internet and lose signal, and he will be unable to contact the outside world—this is also a possibility that Pei Zhaoye will face.

"Protect your network." Jiang Xing glanced at Pei Zhaoye, then chuckled.

The first two instances.

Pei Zhaoye was once in a desolate mountain wilderness, where there was no net at all.

Another time, it was even more direct; the author simply banned it.

In addition, the child's physical skills are not very good... Jiang Xingni sincerely hopes that he can perform to his full potential in this dungeon.

Otherwise, Pei Zhaoye's popularity on the forum will soon drop below Su Yanzhi's.

Pei Zhaoye feigned innocence: "That's not something I can decide, is it?"

Xie Yungui stepped forward and took Jiang Xingni's hand.

So she opened her email—out of the corner of her eye she noticed Pei Zhaoye walk over and stand with Xiao Jiming and the others.

The group quickly prepared to buy tickets and fly directly to the city where the mission was located.

"I have to say," Jiang Xing sighed inwardly once again.

The main characters are truly a group of highly energetic people.

They can just leave whenever they want, without wasting any time at all.

I have already received an email from Lin Hongguang in my inbox.

She looked up and met Xie Yungui's gaze.

"Shall we find a place to discuss this in detail?" Jiang Xing raised an eyebrow and waved the phone in Xie Yungui's hand. "But you don't seem to be in a hurry."

Jiang Xing smiled.

Despite the investigation report stating that there was a risk of death, Xie Yungui appeared lazy and indifferent.

Even if Xie Yungui doesn't care about her life or death, he should at least care about his own.

Xie Yungui even said that he wouldn't let her die.

She didn't believe that her death could really be avoided by the characters in the comics, but Jiang Xingni felt that she wouldn't die at this time.

and so.

"Is there no danger to his life this time?" Jiang Xingni stared at Xie Yungui thoughtfully.

While analyzing Xie Yungui's micro-expressions, Jiang Xingni mentally connected all the clues.

—She and Xie Yungui are not in much danger here.

So where is the danger?

Xiao Jiming.

The main characters.

The departure of these two unofficial members who could foresee the future made it easier for the main characters to fall into crisis.

"The real danger lies with Xiao Jiming," Jiang Xingni said in a low voice. "You're in charge of rescuing them, aren't you?"
