“No, no, what do you mean Xia Xiaocha and Bai Yue? This isn’t how I remember it!”
Bai Xiaocha was certain that of the two people in front of her, one body belonged to Xia Yue and the other to herself, not some Xia Xiaocha and Bai Yue.
And those two names looked exactly like the surnames had just been swapped.
“I suspect your memory has been altered,” Xia Xi said to Bai Xiaocha with a serious expression.
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!” Bai Xiaocha declared emphatically.
Her memories were definitely real and valid. Instead, it was more likely that this person claiming to be Xia Xiaocha had their memory altered!
No, to be precise, everyone else’s memories besides her own might have been altered!
Immediately, Bai Xiaocha explained the situation as she understood it to Xia Xi and the others.
…
“You mean… my name should be Xia Xi, she is Xia Yue, you are Bai Xiaocha, and all our memories have been altered?”
Xia Xi stroked his smooth chin with his hand, deep in thought.
When he had woken up in the classroom, the body was indeed male, but in his arms was a female student’s bag, and inside the bag was a student ID card with the name Xia Xiaocha.
Memories could be faked, but could an item like a student ID card also be faked?
Or… was this deliberately set up by the game?
“Yeah, Brother Xia Xi, you have to believe me!” Bai Xiaocha said, afraid that the two in front of her would think she was a liar. If they didn’t believe her, they certainly wouldn’t let her swap back into the blue-haired little loli’s body later when they found a special item.
“Hmm… let’s put this matter aside for now. First, let’s go find Luo Xinyu. She chased after him for so long and hasn’t come back. I’m worried she might have fallen victim to that pervert.”
Indeed, Luo Xinyu had been chasing him for quite a while. If she had caught him, she would have brought the pervert back. If she hadn’t caught him, she should have returned to regroup with them by now. But the fact was, they hadn’t seen any sign of Luo Xinyu at all.
After deciding, the group left the restroom and began searching the second floor.
However, they searched the entire second floor, and even went downstairs to search the first floor, but still found no trace of those two.
Xia Xi suspected the pervert might have lured Luo Xinyu to the hidden equipment room on the third floor, so he went there specifically to check, but still found no sign of them.
“The teaching building is only this big, how can we not find them?”
Bai Yue was feeling uneasy.
Because Luo Xinyu had chased after him to save her, and after all this time without any news, she might have already been hurt.
“No, there must be some hidden place we haven’t found!”
Xia Xi remained very calm.
Since they had searched all the obvious places in the teaching building, the only remaining possibility was a hidden structure like the equipment room on the third floor.
“Do you remember that inscription we saw?”
He looked at Bai Yue.
“You mean that… ‘a place with light’?”
Bai Yue certainly remembered. After all, something like an engraved message was clearly a special clue, it had to have some unique meaning.
Bai Xiaocha listened to the two talking, understanding nothing. She could only stand quietly to the side, obediently, like a little child.
“Right, a place with light.”
Xia Xi, controlling this body that was Xia Yue’s, walked quickly to the window. The skirt lifted slightly with his brisk steps, sending a cool sensation through his lower body, but Xia Xi didn’t feel any discomfort.
He was gradually getting used to this body.
“Did either of you notice? Looking out from the windows, it’s always pitch black outside, but the window in the middle of the second floor is bright!”
During the first search of the second floor, Xia Xi had already noticed that particular window.
Anything different from the norm must be suspicious!
Bai Yue and Bai Xiaocha exchanged a look and followed Xia Xi to the window where the light was coming in.
Xia Xi stepped forward and reached out, wanting to place his palm against that window to see if there was some kind of mechanism.
But the moment his palm touched the window, a pulling sensation came from it, sucking his entire body inside!
Seeing this, the other two hurriedly stepped forward and followed in.
“It seems I guessed right; there really is a hidden space here!”
After being pulled in through the window, Xia Xi and the others found themselves in a straight corridor.
On both sides of the corridor was an abyss, just like the gaps between the platforms on the third floor.
“Tell me, where exactly is Bai Xi!”
“Heh heh, if you swap your body with me, I’ll tell you where he is.”
“In your dreams!”
At the end of the corridor, two voices rang out.
It was clearly Luo Xinyu and the pervert talking.
“Let’s go!”
Xia Xi said to the two, then took the lead and walked forward.
At the end of the corridor stood an isolated building, with several small holes broken into its outer wall.
Crouching by the wall and peering inside through a small hole, they saw the pervert, tied up, using Xia Xi’s body, and Luo Xinyu standing in front of him.
“It’s Senior Xinyu!”
Bai Yue’s expression lit up with joy.
The senior hadn’t been hurt, and the pervert was captured! That was great!
Seeing the situation inside, Xia Xi and the others didn’t hesitate much and headed straight for the building’s main entrance.
However, the moment they pushed open the door and stepped inside, the entire building shook violently as if an earthquake had struck!
Immediately after, an intense white light emanated from the pervert. Everyone was forced to shut their eyes from the blinding glare.
When they opened their eyes again, they found their bodies had changed once more.
Bai Yue had returned to her own body, Xia Xi had become Luo Xinyu, Bai Xiaocha had become Xia Xi, and Luo Xinyu had become Bai Xiaocha.
In other words, Xia Xi, Bai Xiaocha, and Luo Xinyu had all swapped amongst themselves. As for the pervert, he had returned to his own little boy’s body.
“Damn it! Why did you guys suddenly show up here! And right when the special item activated!”
[Special Item: Intense Light. Those illuminated by the intense light will swap bodies.
After the intense light activates, the building may shake; be careful to avoid injury.]
Xia Xi said nothing. He just exchanged a glance with Luo Xinyu, who had now become the little loli, then untied Bai Xiaocha and tied up the pervert.
Honestly, because of the special items, Xia Xi had just gotten used to Xia Yue’s body. Now that he had suddenly become Luo Xinyu, he even felt a bit unsteady while walking.
What was especially uncomfortable was how the view ahead was half-blocked with every step he took.
“Xinyu, what’s your mission?”
“It’s to capture the pervert and throw him into the abyss, and the body must be the correct one.”
“So that means, all we need to do now is get back into our real bodies, and this game will end?”
Xia Xi’s gaze shifted to Bai Xiaocha.
Besides finding the special items, the final thing they needed to figure out was: does that blue-haired little loli body belong to him, Xia Xiaocha, or to her, Bai Xiaocha!
