This villain, please exercise some restraint.

Reason was slowly returning, and the masked young man stood up slowly. If Xu Xuzi hadn't quickly caught him with quick eyesight and quick hands, he might have fallen to his knees again in the next moment.

There seemed to be a lot of things missing from his heart all of a sudden. He couldn't describe it, but when he opened his hazy eyes, everything in front of him suddenly felt boring and... strange.

For a moment, he seemed to have lost the motivation to work hard for it, but the next moment, a wildfire suddenly ignited in his heart, making his hazy vision extremely clear again.

"I'll kill him."

He heard himself mumbling.

Not that he wanted to tell anyone else this information, but...himself.

"No matter what the cost, I will kill him...even if-"

His words stopped abruptly.

The boy with long red hair had already arrived in front of him, the smile on his lips showing obvious provocation.

"You must be in pain, this feeling of knowing the truth but being powerless... This is what I want to see -"

But before his provocative words could be completely spoken, a small white sleeve arrow penetrated his chest, and then... quietly... exploded.

The figure of the boy with long red hair slowly dissipated.

There was still a provocative smile on the corners of his lips, but the smile quickly disappeared as he dissipated.

The figure of the white-haired boy was revealed after the dissipating outline, and his face was calm.

No one saw him take action, and no one expected... the person who seemed to be closest to Chixuan would take action.

There was silence.

Neither Ye Jiang, nor Xu Xuzi, nor even Qi Dasheng, who had already picked out stones from his fingertips, did not expect that Shi Si would quietly send Chixuan back to the resurrection point in one fell swoop.

"Among the men in black he brought, there may be players with long-distance displacement capabilities. Perhaps, he will come here again soon."

"We have limited time—"

The white-haired boy said, walking closer and looking at the masked young man who had regained some sense.

"are you ready?"

Qi Dasheng nodded slowly.

He was ready, completely... ready.

But he knew very well that if the boss's mission required the real death of the mission target, even if Shi Si bought him a chance, he would still fail.

At this point, he doesn't think this task is cruel.

He even hoped that this task would be more cruel.

However, the tasks in the game are only virtual tasks after all. They do not provide props with actual harmful meaning, nor are there any methods of punishment.

It seems that the life that can be infinitely regenerated in that damned person's game is enough to withstand those who have been harmed by it.

Mother......

For some reason, knowing the truth, he felt even more powerless again.

This feeling of powerlessness made him almost fall to the ground again.

A pair of slightly cool hands held his, preventing him from falling.

It's...Shi Si.

Unlike Xu Xuzi's slightly warm hand, the white-haired boy's hand in front of him was cold.

Something colder seemed to be secretly transferred to his palm along with the coolness. He saw Shi Si in front of him smiling slightly, and the curve of the corners of his lips did not seem to contain any malice.

"Your condition is really worrying. Maybe... you need some time to digest this bad news?"

The object in his hand was so obvious that Great Sage Qi raised his eyes and looked into the darkness.

Out of nowhere, he nodded.

Shi Si closed the door and walked out. Soon, Ye Jiang and Xu Xuzi also looked at each other and followed closely behind.

It's just that the two of them were more or less anxious, between their eyebrows.

They have time to wait, but if Chixuan comes back later, they will be in trouble.

During this day's questioning, they finally saw clearly the red-haired boy's moodiness and considerable strength.

Reasonably, they did not want the thugs to undergo unknown punishment due to mission reasons.

The masked youth is miserable enough...

But their worries did not last long. Soon, the door of the conference room opened from the inside.

Ye Jiang was about to speak, but when his eyes touched the thug's face, he suddenly fell silent.

Very ugly...with a physical...discomfort.

It was hard to imagine that this was a normal person's face. It was full of irregular bumps and folds, like a piece of pork belly that was about to break. The two eyes were the only areas that were not affected.

Even though Xu Xuzi covered his mouth in advance, a very low exclamation still escaped through the gap between his fingertips.

She had always thought that the so-called mask was just Gao Wan's attempt to keep it mysterious, but now it seemed... it was the most plain and simple cover-up.

Qi Dasheng's eyes, which had become calm, reflected the reactions of Ye Jiang and Xu Xuzi for a moment, and then looked at Shi Si.

The white-haired boy's face seemed to have never been disturbed by his disgusting face. He just stood there, watching quietly.

He almost had the illusion that he was... the same as ordinary people.

There was no disgust or fear in those eyes.

He felt that he would be touched by this, because he rarely encountered such a being, but... Qi Dasheng's hand clenched slightly, but then quickly loosened it.

His heart was filled with peace. The event that should have surprised him would not make his heart beat a little more.

Miracles...come with a price.

This thought flashed across Qi Dasheng's mind.

But...he felt he needed a miracle, even if-

Thinking this, he twitched the corners of his lips and walked directly into the next room under the gaze of everyone.

"what......"

"Who are you? Ghost, ghost!!"

"Master, help, help..."

It was the voice of a middle-aged man full of fear, but soon, the voice disappeared with a weak wail.

Shi Si raised the corners of his lips, and the sudden flash of blood reflected in his dark pupils. The eye-catching blood quickly turned into pure black, and then disappeared into nothingness.

It seemed that the flash of blood had never appeared.

Xu Xuzi rubbed his eyes, "Am I dazzled..."

Ye Jiang blinked and confirmed: "It doesn't seem to be dazzling. I did see a red light just now. Although it disappeared very quickly, it did flash through the closed door."

The door opened with a creak.

The young man who had already put on the mask walked out calmly.

But the eyes of everyone present fell on the palm of his hand, which seemed to be still beating on the black... heart.

"Heart of black..."

Shi Si murmured to himself, interest flashing in his eyes.

He didn't think it was because the owner of the heart was a completely bad person.

No matter how bad a person is, he will always have a red heart.

"Black heart!"

Ye Jiang and Xu Xuzi looked at each other, and they both saw the surprise and realization in their eyes.

"It turns out that people who are too bad really have a black heart."

Xu Xuzi whispered.
