The fake daughter-in-law holds the script of Long Aotian

Not long after, the four of them returned to the entrance of the venue.

Xiao Jue's expression was slightly disgusted, and he wished he could say goodbye to Shen Mian and never see him again.

I don’t know where she got such a strong possessiveness.

Fang Zhi, on the other hand, grabbed a handful of nuts for Shen Mian, and his expression was as gentle as an elder coaxing a child: "Take these for your classmates to eat."

Before Shen Mian could take it, Xiao Jue snatched it away, put it in his pocket, and whistled twice as if nothing had happened, with an arrogance of "What can you do to me?" on his face.

Shen Mian was speechless: ...What a childish and elementary school chicken!

Fang Zhi smiled helplessly: "Then let's say goodbye here. The time to meet again won't be too far away..."

As soon as she was halfway through her words, Xiao Jue pressed her shoulders and forced her to turn around: "Okay, I can't stop talking, the canteen will be closed later!"

While being pushed forward by her, Fang Zhi reluctantly turned around and waved to Shen Mian.

Shen Mian watched their backs gradually disappear.

……

After Shen Mian wandered back to the venue, it was still some time before the official live broadcast started.

Everyone in Changjuntai gathered in a small group and were talking about something.

Shen Mian was a little surprised.

The atmosphere in the venue was okay. She originally thought that Ji Tang would make a big fuss when he came back to make up for his injured pride.

When Grace saw her coming back, she waved her hand and said in a low voice: "Flora and I took a shortcut and stopped him in advance to persuade him to avoid causing trouble during the competition."

"But he didn't know why he was so crazy. He said that he knew something was wrong with you and had to report it to the organizing committee and asked us to be witnesses."

Shen Mian looked at the teaching team in the venue, which was as quiet as death, and then asked: "So?"

Grace's expression was very calm: "I threatened him to send his nude photos to the mailbox of every empire citizen."

...solve the case!

Shen Mian was still a little confused: "Wait a minute, how come you have his nude photos!"

Grace's expression remained unchanged: "Didn't you take off his clothes on the warship? I thought it might be useful, so I asked the staff to buy all the surveillance equipment on the deck."

Shen Mian was stunned. Before he could find the right words, he heard Grace say quietly:

"No refutation. It was indeed you who took off Ji Tang's clothes last night."

"Your hands are dirty."

A fatal blow!

Shen Mian was hit and lay on the table, muttering resentfully: "Give me back the small grid from before..."

"Crack!"

There was a crisp sound.

Several nuts and kernels were placed in front of Shen Mian.

Shen Mian raised her head and saw Xia Qingzhang inserting a letter opener into the slit of the nut shell. With a forceful parting, the round nut fell into her hand, and then was thrown in front of Shen Mian.

"It is said that rodents especially like to eat this kind of specialty nut. If you sell it back to the local area, you can make a small profit."

Xia Qingzhang was chatting with Chen Shu: "For such a long time, there has been no team that has expressed its willingness to form an alliance with Chang Juntai. How can our popularity be so bad!"

"Instead of improving ourselves, it is better to harm others," Chen Shu said matter-of-factly: "How about we secretly instigate internal fighting in the name of backstabbing and take the opportunity to destroy their relationship. Commander, look at this method... …Why are you looking at us like this?”

Shen Mian's eyes were a little dazed.

Letter openers, nuts, rodents, squirrels…

For this reason, it is difficult for Shen Mian not to think of:

Then she found out that it was the person who used the squirrel to send her the message.

If she really "bleeds the same blood as Shen Mian", it would be reasonable to be able to use the [Ninth Method] and contract the little squirrel to deliver the letter to her.

However, appearing in front of her so frequently seemed a bit urgent.

Do you know what you are going to do?

Shen Mian shook his head and was about to pick up a nut on the table and eat it.

Xia Qingzhang stared at her hand and said in surprise: "What did you do? You rubbed ashes on your hand."

Shen Mian put his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it.

There was indeed a tiny bit of powder between her fingers.

It's not very accurate to say it's "wall plaster". It has the texture of crystals, uniform and fine white, slightly transparent, like...salt grains.

Then she recalled the things she had come into contact with today - when Fang Zhi pretended to be unconscious to tease her, she put her hand into Fang Zhi's coat pocket in order to find "medicine" and ended up grabbing a handful of nuts.

It must have been stained at that time.

…If it’s salt for flavoring nuts, that’s okay.

However, Shen Mian felt something was unspeakably wrong.

Nothing can be seen.

Under Xia Qingzhang's ghostly gaze, she didn't hesitate and simply took a bite - relying on her Super Saiyan physique to be confident.

There is indeed a salty taste in the mouth, but after the salty taste fades, there is an indescribable strange feeling.

Before Shen Mian could feel anything, he heard Xia Qingzhang say in horror: "Why do you have a nosebleed?!"

Shen Mian touched his nose and saw a dazzling bright red.

Grace, who had been paying attention here, immediately lowered her voice: "What's going on?"

Shen Mian waved his hand and said softly: "I understand one thing."

"what's up?"

The black-haired boy showed a slightly weird smile, and he couldn't tell whether it was a sudden realization or a sigh:

"I understand why Xiao Jue couldn't go back after splitting his soul."

"It's really the script of Romeo and Juliet."

She twisted the ivory-white mineral powder in her hands and let them fall slowly.

On the day she extracted the mecha, Luo Xiuxia's popular science about the functions of the [Legendary Beast's Heart] seemed to reappear in her ears——

"The heart of [Legendary Beast IV] has the ability to separate and chaos energy."

If nothing else, she should have the powder of one of the hearts in Legendary Behemoth II, IV or V in her hand.

It’s not that it’s incomprehensible, after all, the combat effectiveness of a Xiao Jue and Xiao Jue fragments*2 are absolutely incomparable.

Every time Xiao Jue gets nuts from Fang Zhi's pocket, they are chronic poisons that hinder her soul from gathering and regaining her strength.

Using a simple, natural and non-polluting method like drugging, it was easy to ban the strongest combat force stationed at the Academy of Sciences. It was indeed the best solution to reduce the difficulty of making trouble.

but.

Before Shen Mian could think more, the hour hand turned to the hour.

Details of tomorrow’s competition will be announced soon.

——The live broadcast has begun.

……

"This competition will take the form of a camp battle, and the eight participating teams will be divided into three camps..."

The first sentence the host dropped was Wang Zhao.

It instantly triggered a discussion among the conductors in the audience.

Chen Shu whispered with a sense of gloating: "It's true that my cleverness was mistaken. I thought it was a big melee before, and I was anxious to form an alliance in private. Now it's embarrassing."

The host glanced at the contestants, his smile unchanged:

"The three camps are: chefs, diners... and sacrifices."

Shen Mian raised his head slightly alertly.

"The theme of this competition is called 'Feast of Betrayal'."
