Become the villain boss to be defeated in the game

The other two girls nodded and walked towards the rooms with corresponding house numbers.

The key opened the door and they entered the room together. A musty smell from being uninhabited for a long time instantly wafted into their noses. What came into view was a broken doll similar to the one in Mei's hand and a brightly colored performance ticket.

Several girls frowned involuntarily.

"Someone is coming." Hei Xi reminded Xier.

"Three little girls, I'm the landlord here. Are you here to look for the child who lives here?" A middle-aged lady came over and looked at the broken doll in Mei's arms. She couldn't help but feel curious. "This doll is a decoration in your school, right? Are you all art students?"

"Oh, we are from the same school as the classmate who lived here before. This is a prop used for our club activities. We haven't seen him for a long time. Do you know where he went?" Mei glossed over the matter with a few words and asked.

"The child you are looking for died a month ago..." said the landlady regretfully.

"Ah?" Several girls asked in surprise.

"Yes, I called the police, but it was too late when I found him. He was lying on the bed motionless, as if he was asleep."

"But we just received his flyer..." said Miyuki.

"Hey, little girl, don't talk nonsense, it's scary," the landlady touched her arm which was covered with goose bumps. "The police ruled out the possibility of homicide and contacted his relatives. The relatives just took the body away and left the things all over the house."

"Since you are his friends, go in and take a look. Anyway, I have to clear out this place soon," the landlady advised, and slowly left. "I don't know if this house can be rented out in the future..."

"...Let's go back in and take a look." Several girls walked into the house together.

"She's telling the truth. Death did happen here," Hei Xi said to Xi'er.

"The person in charge of the rehearsal also said that he has been working outside during the summer vacation..." Miyuki thought, holding her chin in her hand.

"That means someone has been impersonating him all this time." Mei came to the conclusion. She bent down and picked up the brightly colored performance ticket.

"Xi'er, you'd better not get too involved in this matter, it will become very troublesome." Hei Xi couldn't help it anymore, and reminded her to protect herself in a voice that only Xi'er could hear.

Ever since she touched the doll in Mei's hand, a strange voice has been disturbing her, trying to invite her to the Domination Theater.

She was not sure whether the other two girls heard this sound, but when they were in the Quantum Sea, the World Serpent appeared in this way and tricked her into making a deal, hoping to use her power to seize the Core of Reason and leave the Quantum Sea.

Although in the end, they actually got together and had a hotpot meal.

"Whether it's involved or not... I just want to help more. Kiana and the others need our help, and this missing person also needs our help..." Seele replied in her mind, "If it weren't for Sister Bronya, we might have disappeared quietly. Now at least we can help investigate the cause of his death and find out the truth, even if this may be a trap."

"Thank you, other me. I know you just want to protect me and don't want me to get into trouble and get hurt. But don't forget that we have many friends supporting us behind the scenes. They will protect me and they will protect you too." Xier gently comforted the uneasy Hei Xi.

She could understand why Hei Xi was so cautious - during the years when they were trapped in the Quantum Sea, she had always been doing her best to protect her. The strong desire to protect her made Hei Xi subconsciously not want her to get hurt again, and it was not a selfish act.

Now that she has left that environment, she needs more guidance and care. She must work hard to help Heixi get out of her long-term loneliness and paranoia, and accept new friends and a new life again.

This time, let her protect her.

He was silent for a while after hearing this, and it was unclear whether he was still worried or was persuaded. Then he agreed and said, "Okay, whatever you want."

"That's right, it's just as you thought. She no longer needs you." Another extremely staccato voice reached Hei Xi's ears.

"..."

"Who grows up talking to dolls? They end up in the trash," the voice continued.

"Tsk! Are you sick?" Hei Xi cursed back.

"...Don't you understand yet? We are all unwanted people, and we shouldn't exist in this world!" The voice gradually became crazy after hearing this, and it was a bit angry and embarrassed. "Being hated, alienated, and abandoned, this is the most suitable ending for you and me. We are the same kind!"

"You are so lowly in trying to sow discord. Tell me, who the hell are you?" Hei Xi interrupted the mysterious voice calmly.

"I am you... We have the same origin and are both messengers of Honkai," the voice was interrupted and said awkwardly, "You should return to Honkai, stand on the same front with us, and rule the world together."

"Not interested," Hei Xi flatly refused, "Xi'er, lend me your body for a moment."

"Okay." Xier agreed.

With Xi'er's permission, Hei Xi ran out of the spiritual space and asked the other two girls: "Did you hear which messenger of Honkai invited you just now?"

"An invitation?" The two girls were confused. "No."

"Is it the Herrscher?" Mei asked.

"I just heard a voice," Hei Xi explained, "It said it was the messenger of Honkai and was inviting me to join them, but I refused."

"Did it say anything else?" asked Shenxue.

"It's very noisy, and it seems to have some problems with its brain. It keeps repeating the same few sentences over and over again, trying to get me to join it," Hei Xi said with an unpleasant expression, "I can't get anything else out of it, and now it has no response at all."

"I'm going to go back and rest first. Let the great Detective Xier come out and analyze this matter with you guys." Hei Xi returned to his room, and Xier regained control of his body with a confused look on his face.

"It seems that there are no other clues here. Why don't we go back to Anti-Entropy and send the information we have to Kiana and the others?" Mei suggested.

"Okay, let Xier lead the way. We will be staying in the Salt Lake Base recently." Xier agreed.
