    • by Cristae Chapter 264: Choked on Smoke Yan Jiyun was gambling on just how much Ouyang Jing meant to Master Zuo. The music room was utterly silent, and no one appeared. After her initial fright, Ouyang Jing made no move to struggle—she was only surprised by their sudden intrusion, showing no real fear. In fact, she seemed to know something about the events in question. “Miss Ouyang from forty years ago. Back then, you should have had a child with Wei Liu, didn't you?” Yan Jiyun said. “Miss Ouyang,…
    • by Cristae Chapter 263: The Former Miss Ouyang Of course, Yan Jiyun wasn’t about to give up on saving them. No matter how important a quest character might be, they were ultimately just NPCs—but Ninth Master was different; in his subconscious, Yan Jiyun never truly regarded him as an NPC. It was precisely at such moments that he became all the more calm. The three were bound behind their backs. Yan Jiyun guessed that, while exploring the room, they had discovered a mechanism. Less lucky than him, they’d…
    • by Cristae Chapter 262: Ninth Master in the Ring of Fire Livestream Chatroom: “Aiya, I’m scared! Ever since Ninth Master showed up in this dungeon, I haven’t worried about the little cat at all, but now, seeing him suddenly act alone is making me nervous again.” “Same here, same here! Am I just lovesick or something?” “Who isn’t?” “This is my favorite kind of plot—I just want to see the little cat out there on his own, watching him solve the puzzles! It hasn’t even been that…
    • by Cristae Chapter 261 Master Zuo With the help of the black-robed figure, Cheng Shen had successfully gained possession of Song Kai’s youthful body. If Yan Jiyun hadn’t barged in unnoticed, he might never have learned that there was another player involved behind all this—a black-robed figure. The voice of the black-robed woman wasn’t one that Yan Jiyun recognized, but it did seem oddly familiar—like something he’d heard somewhere before. He recalled all the women who had appeared in the Liu…
    • by Cristae Chapter 260 The Man in the Black Robe If we must speak of villains in this scenario, then it is the five individuals who transformed the entire Jiangnan Town into a town of paper people that are the true culprits. The heads of the Liu and Lin families have vanished, and no one knows whether they might someday return. Everything now depends on Yan Jiyun and the others’ deductions, and he hoped Gu Wenzhu would be able to provide him with more useful information in the future. It had already been…
    • by Cristae Chapter 259 Not Afraid of the Dark Yan Jiyun and his group sped toward the Cheng family home. Liu Jingxi was driving, with Yan Jiyun and Ninth Master seated in the back, and Cheng Xueying beside the driver. The closer they drew to the Cheng residence, the grimmer his expression became. Just as they were about to arrive, Cheng Xueying suddenly spoke. “Let’s not go through the front entrance—let’s use the back. At this hour, the whole Cheng family should be in the front hall listening to my…
    • by Cristae Chapter 258 Ninth Lord Has a Nosebleed Yan Jiyun glanced down at the toe he’d kicked earlier that day, only now realizing how much it hurt. He hadn’t felt anything during the day, but it ached acutely now that he was back in cat form. His forepaw was badly swollen; even the Ninth Lord’s gentle touch was painful, prompting Yan Jiyun to retract his paw with a wince. The Ninth Lord asked, “Did you get into a fight with another cat?” Of course, Yan Jiyun didn’t respond. Even if he had…
    • by Cristae Chapter 257 Braised Pork Trotters Seeing more and more people arriving, Ajun realized she could not escape; her attacks on Yan Jiyun only grew fiercer, her expression showing her intent to put Cheng Xueying to death. In Yan Jiyun’s hands, the bamboo pole served well as a long-range weapon. During the fight with Ajun, it left even more holes in her body—now, Ajun resembled a sieve riddled with gaping wounds. All the presumed NPCs—except Yan Jiyun and the Ninth Lord—looked on in bafflement…
    • by Cristae Chapter 256 Nine Lord’s Displeasure Liu Jingxi’s voice came just in time, but Cheng Xueying still needed a moment to process it; in that split second, Yan Jiyun’s claws had already raked across the skin of his calf. Cheng Xueying gasped in pain, jerking his leg back. “Hiss—where did this stray cat come from!” Yan Jiyun couldn’t care less whether he was hurt or not. Both NPCs had felt pain where his claws swiped, though no blood was drawn. Having clawed Cheng Xueying’s thigh, he…
    • by Cristae Chapter 255 Beware the Black Cat Qiu Xi’s worries were quickly soothed by Gu Wenzhu, and he swiftly came to terms with being a paper person. Perhaps it was his habit of bad luck—just being alive was a stroke of fortune. The gloom of the past few days dissipated all at once; as long as his leg could be restored, he would be satisfied. After hearing the background of the game, he patted his chest in relief. “Thank goodness, so this is just a scenario setting. But… the town is ringed by water,…
    • by Cristae Chapter 254 Lost a Leg The only living person in Jiangnan Town—this was a very clear hint. Wei Liu wanted to use this living person to survive, but why couldn’t he distinguish between real people and living people? Was it because everyone else was made of paper, making it impossible to tell who was truly alive? Gu Wenzhu and He Yuanle couldn’t follow Yan Jiyun’s reasoning quite as quickly. He Yuanle was still stuck on the fact that the entire town’s population were paper people. He…
    • by Cristae Chapter 253 The Only Living Person Yan Jiyun hopped on one foot for a while, then squatted down again, waiting for the pain in his toes to subside. For the moment, Ninth Master couldn’t help; he crouched beside him, waiting for the wave of pain to pass. “Does it still hurt a lot?” Yan Jiyun’s tears welled up from the pain, reddening his eyes. He nodded meekly, aggrieved. “Yes, it hurts.” “Take off your shoe and let me see. Did you hit your toenail or somewhere else?” As Ninth…
    • by Cristae Chapter 252 Unexpected Good Fortune Live Stream: “Honestly, if the sky fell, Cat Cub would be there, running his mouth. Thank goodness for Ninth Master, or I’d never have realized Cat Cub is a stubborn coward, hahaha!” “Isn’t this a perfect excuse for Ninth Master to hold his hand? I’ll bet a cat hair Ninth Master won’t pass up this chance.” “Too bad Ninth Master isn’t streaming right now. We could have gotten a first-person view of holding Cat Cub’s human paw.” “I…
    • by Cristae Chapter 251: Which Grave If the deceased isn't Wei Liu, then the clue of the treasure map is temporarily cut off. The quest stated that finding the treasure map would trigger a mysterious side quest—why hasn’t it activated? Could it be necessary to first confirm the identity of the male deceased before the side quest will be triggered? Then, who is the male deceased? Yan Jiyun jumped off Ninth Master’s lap and ran out—he had questions for Captain Hu, but it was extremely inconvenient…
    • by Cristae Chapter 250: The Clever Ninth Master Why is it that there’s no sound when Ninth Master walks? Yan Jiyun remembered that when he’d once hidden in Liu Rongzhi’s room, he could still hear Ninth Master’s footsteps; but now, there was nothing. He couldn’t help but grow anxious. After all, there was still a slight difference between Ninth Master and Qi Feng. Since he was Ninth Master, he possessed some NPC traits—such as making no sound while walking. At times, even Liu Jingxi moved without…
    • by Cristae Chapter 249 Eavesdropping Live Broadcast Room: “Hahahahaha, Ninth Master just grabbed the little cat’s waist—he must be over the moon from his perspective, but from the kitten’s side, he doesn’t even realize their relationship has changed!” “Of course! In the kitten’s mind, Ninth Master is Qifeng, his caretaker, his litter cleaner, his teammate. Honestly, how could one turn from friends to lovers overnight? Impossible.” “I think maybe the kitten just hasn’t realized it…
    • by Cristae Chapter 248: Corpse All at once, a head appeared against Ninth Master’s chest, sending his heart soaring. Yet, even as he floated on air, he was still more concerned about why Yan Jiyun had suddenly sneezed. “Caught a cold?” Yan Jiyun kept his head low, forehead pressed to Ninth Master’s chest, and sneezed twice more, voice nasal as he replied, “Not a cold. My nose itches.” Ninth Master said, “It isn’t April or May, so there’s no willow catkins drifting. What are you allergic…
    • by Cristae Chapter 247: A Sneeze There are no paper figures in Jiangnan Town; this is a known and obvious fact. Yan Jiyun had noticed this at Liu Jinghao’s funeral, but at the time, he lacked further evidence to support his suspicion. He merely thought the setting of the copy wasn’t thorough enough. Yet the copy’s setup is, in fact, meticulous; there’s no problem with the background details. This is a complete story. In truth, besides Liu Jinghao’s funeral, what struck him as odd afterwards was the…
    • by Cristae Chapter 246: No Paper Figures livestream chat: “Hahahaha, cat cub is killing me! Clearly scared stiff by the supernatural atmosphere, but still stubbornly talking tough. Let’s see how long that bravado lasts!” “Honestly, I want to see him hard in another way…” “Girl above, put your pants back on. The streamer gets mosaiced just for the cat cub licking the owner’s lips—you can’t expect to do adult things here!” “Oh my god, this stream is way too PG. I’m a carnivore,…
    • by Cristae Chapter 245: Unafraid livestream chat: “Ahhh, cat cub! A late-night treat for the viewers!” “Cat cub, have you wised up? How can you go around licking people! Even if he’s your owner, you shouldn't just lick him like that!” “I can’t take it—first-person view, I’m blushing to death, it feels like I was the one kissing Ninth Master.” “What are you talking about? There’s no first-person view at all—the system slapped a mosaic right on top!” “Damn, did you have…
