Help, I've become a paper man

Amid the bright lights, the sound of music drowned out the noise. It was another banquet, but unlike the previous ones, this one was more lively. It was not because of the number of people, although there were indeed more people this time, but the key point was the atmosphere.

There were no pretentious and elegant decorations, and everyone was dressed more casually. Compared with previous events, this one felt like an offline gathering of a specific group.

Even though Song Yi was unhappy, he had to admit that this kind of atmosphere did make people more comfortable. More importantly, he looked around and did not find Yan Zhichun. Instead, he saw a few familiar faces who had appeared last time. If one person from each family came out, then this situation was tantamount to indicating... Yan Changyue would appear this time.

It was only because of those thoughts that Song Yi was able to suppress his temper, but he was only staying here reluctantly, as it did not affect his surging anger. After all, regardless of what happened before, this time, Noah's Ark was obviously and disgusting.

When he almost took the protagonist away, a prompt popped up, ending the copy early and giving him only second place. He took the props into consideration, and with the protagonist's halo, he still couldn't convince himself, so he turned to ask Noah's Ark.

"Can you figure it out? I can't figure it out."

After asking this question, his anger could not be calmed down. Noah's Ark answered quickly, but only said the word "fate", which made Song Yi even more speechless.

He guessed that Noah's Ark was pretending to be profound, but if he spoke of it in a bland manner, it would only make him look like he was asking for a beating.

"What about Purgatory?" Song Yi asked again.

That was the excuse given by the system. He originally thought that as soon as he came out, there would be another fighting game, but as soon as it was over, they were thrown here. Even the meals were still hot, obviously prepared in advance.

Noah's Ark did not answer, but directly adjusted the panel to the "comic" interface, showing the updated red dot on it. It was unclear whether it was indicating "the answer is here" or to divert Song Yi's attention.

But Yan Changyue hadn't shown up yet, and Noah's Ark didn't seem like it would explain, so Song Yi accepted the non-human's proposal. He took a plate of food, sat down in the corner, and opened a comic while eating.

As soon as the loading was completed, Song Yi took a breath of cold air. The cover was very spooky, with a dark background. Sui Yuesheng was standing in the front, slightly raising his head, as if looking outside the screen. Behind him was a blurry background, and several people with their backs to him.

People were standing and sitting, in different postures, but at first glance, even if you didn't understand the human body, you could feel uncomfortable. These were obviously movements that a living person couldn't do, but this was not the weirdest thing.

There are red scratches on the picture, similar to crayon strokes, like a child's graffiti, a few strokes were hastily drawn and fell on Sui Yuesheng's limbs, as if to cut the person.

Song Yi swallowed subconsciously, then he came to his senses, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and looked around again, this time wanting to find another person, but unfortunately, Sui Yuesheng was not here either, and he was too lazy to get up and look for him.

After all, what can I say when I really meet you? Should I tell you that I spied on your life? I saw an unlucky painting about you? Forget it!

Song Yi put the plate aside, turned his attention back to the comics, and continued to flip through them.

I have to say, he is worthy of being the protagonist. From Sui Yuesheng's perspective, the plot is more exciting than theirs. The ghosts that Xingchen experienced in the later period are just appetizers over there.

As soon as Sui Yuesheng landed, he was almost killed by the plot. After escaping from death, he not only had to prevent himself from being killed by ghosts, but also had to interact with them to understand each other's stories, and even had to satisfy the ghosts' wishes in order to obtain clues and props.

It is indeed a miserable life, but I have to say that this plot is good and Song Yi was very interested in watching it. It was not because he wanted to see his brother suffer, but mainly because of Sui Yuesheng's tenacity. He looked handsome while struggling to survive.

Finally, it feels like a young man's story. Song Yi sighed, and saw the next stage, Sui Yuesheng struggled through the "day" and came to the night of the ghosts. He also followed the plot and saw Yan Changyue's face.

The corners of Song Yi's lips slowly drooped as he flipped through the pages quickly. Before he could get angry, the plot of accusing Yan Changyue was over and things became more complicated.

Sui Yuesheng suspected Yan Changyue. The key point was that Song Yi also felt something was wrong as the plot progressed. He thought, "It's normal for Mu Yun to take first place. After all, Sui Yuesheng is here and is working hard to push the plot forward." Then he thought, "Oh no, it seems like he has really become a villain."

After several rounds of repetition, Song Yi poked the system again and asked in his mind:

"Noah's Ark, what is the basis for your ranking?"

Sui Yuesheng just saw that Yan Changyue killed two people, and maybe more. He almost succeeded, so why is he ranked second?

"Based on comprehensive performance, story exploration, and the number of eliminated players."

Song Yi said "Oh" and nodded thoughtfully. He quickened his reading speed and read all the way to the celebration banquet before pausing briefly.

Before he complained about the banquet, he was already in a state of self-entertainment out of boredom. Even at this time, he would sigh:

"Noah's Ark, this time it's a synchronous update, you're finally connected to the network."

After Song Yi finished speaking, there was still no reply. He clicked back and thought they were even, but he didn't expect that there was still a red dot on the cover.

He reopened the comic and once again witnessed the fast "internet speed". The plot was updated synchronously. In this chapter, he was on the cover. Unlike the previous chapters, the picture was not scary or bloody, just a little bit nerdy.

The picture shows a corner of the banquet hall, from which one can see the hustle and bustle inside. However, the angle chosen was weird. Song Yi was clearly sitting on a chair, but because his legs were long, he could not stretch them out, so his legs were folded together, making him look sneaky.

Song Yi took a deep breath, wanting to curse but stopping himself. As long as the camera was tilted, the lines of his legs could be seen. He could be considered a handsome man no matter how you looked at him. Why did he choose this angle!

"Noah's Ark, are you jealous of handsome guys?" Song Yi asked.

Still no answer, Song Yi was used to it, so he opened the comic after he finished speaking, wanting to see what the real-time updates could show.

Even though Song Yi was on the cover, Sui Yuesheng was also on the first page. The protagonists were also in the corner, chatting. Originally, Song Yi was just guessing that Yan Changyue had killed more people, but as soon as Sui Yuesheng opened his mouth, he confirmed his guess.

Sui Yuesheng said to Mu Yun, "It is indeed dangerous, but the main danger is... Lord Yan Changyue. He killed people for fun. He was the one who sent everyone away before we met."

"As for Lord Ling Zhi behind us, we have already separated and we don't know what the situation is."

The corners of Song Yi's lips slowly rose again. He ignored the second half of the sentence and simply laughed because he felt so good about killing. When he turned to the next picture, he shook his head slightly in a happy mood and said with emotion:

"It seems that I am indeed set up as a villain."

After he finished speaking, he paused for two seconds, then changed his tone to a joking one, saying: "The kind that specifically carries shoes for the protagonist, with a better 'background', more superior resources, and then, is defeated by the protagonist."

"But it doesn't matter, I'm a gigolo, I rely on Yan Changyue to be second..."

As Song Yi spoke, he shrugged again, with a hint of happiness in his ease.

He paused to catch up and returned to "Night One" to start from the beginning and enjoy Yan Chang Yue again. As he watched, Song Yi laughed at himself in his heart:

"Now, my outlook on life is no longer determined by my five senses, but by my lover."
