I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 391, 1.25, 14: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
"Don't move. I don't plan to kill my comrades for the time being." Shui Qi's gentle yet clear voice came from above, carrying a hint of danger.

Lianqiao blushed and lowered her head, unsure whether to move or not.

Since Shui Qi was passively placed on the same square as Lian Qiao, he lost his right to make a move, and Lian Qiao had to roll the dice.

"So you've finally met your match, huh? Tsk tsk, how pathetic," Mu Yin said coolly from the side, his tone carrying a hint of schadenfreude.

"I'm sorry..." Lian Qiao said softly, "If I hadn't misread the grid, it wouldn't have turned out like this."

"Isn't this great? This way, no one will be competing with me for the golden carrot," Mu Yin said with a raised eyebrow and a light laugh.

Shui Qi sighed softly and said slowly, "Tell me what number you roll, and do as I say."

"Okay." Lian Qiao nodded. "Thank you for your help."

"It's alright, no matter how long it takes, as long as we reach the single personality." Shui Qi said slowly, looking at the dark gray square in the distance.

Lian Qiao: "..." Oh, so that's how it is. She was overthinking it.

"Hahahaha, Shui Qi, are you even capable?! He was so proactive, and you said such hurtful things. If it were Dao Lin, he would never have said that."

“Daolin? He might say something like, ‘I also think it’s too much trouble, it’s better to separate sooner rather than later.’” Shui Qi said with a light laugh, a hint of gloom flashing in her narrow blue eyes, as if she had thought of something unpleasant.

“Even if you are twice as strong as Dao Lin, you don’t have even half of Dao Lin’s intelligence,” Mu Yin said, shrugging.

"I consider myself to be three times the strength of Dao Lin. Wait, has Dao Lin become a unit of measurement for you?" Shui Qi's lips twitched slightly.

"If you don't use the weakest as the unit of measurement, are you going to use the strongest? As for me, I'm afraid even hundreds of millions of you couldn't compare," Mu Yin said with an arrogant snort.

Shui Qi: "..."

As Lian Qiao watched the two talking, she inexplicably felt that they were two elementary school students bickering. Was it just her imagination?
Moreover, Shui Qi lost.

"It's my turn!" Lian Qiao quickly said, breaking the atmosphere of the two elementary school students arguing.

“3 o’clock,” Lian Qiao said.

"Move one square to the left, then move two squares to your left," Shui Qi said slowly, looking at the squares on the ground.

"You have to step over together." Lian Qiao tried to walk but found she couldn't move. She glanced at the prompts and realized that both of them had to lift their feet and land at the same time.

"You can leave now, I'll cooperate with you," Shui Qi said with a soft smile as she looked at Lian Qiao.

Lian Qiao nodded and slowly lifted her left foot to step onto the adjacent square. Shui Qi followed closely behind, and the two inevitably touched each other as they walked. Lian Qiao could clearly feel that Shui Qi's body was somewhat stiff, as if she was very uncomfortable with close contact with others.

"I'm sorry," Lian Qiao said softly.

Mu Yin watched the two act simultaneously with a half-smile, then suddenly burst out laughing, though it was unclear whether it was mockery or something else.

Just then, a shop suddenly appeared in front of Mu Yin, and he happened to step into it.

What items do you need to purchase?

Current Carrot Coins Quantity: 50

[Vacuum Cleaner: Can suck up 30% of the Carrot Coins from all players in the three closest squares to the player - 20]

[Exchange Card: Exchange one specified item (including the Golden Carrot) from a player within 20 slots - 50]

[Steal Card: Randomly steal any item (including the Golden Carrot) from a designated player within 10 squares - 30] [Swap Card: Allows you to freely swap positions with any player within 5 squares - 10]

[X-ray Vision Card: When equipped, it allows you to view the items, possessions, and hidden slots of all players within the current 5 slots - 20]

Mu Yin pondered for a moment and finally focused his gaze on the exchange card. Although it was the most expensive, it had the longest usable range and allowed him to specify the player and the item he wanted. In other words, he could use it to exchange with other players who had Golden Carrots.

"Buy the exchange card," Mu Yin said decisively.

[Purchase complete. Current Carrot Coins: 0.]

You cannot use the item immediately after purchasing it; you must wait until it is your turn in the next round.

Mu Yin could only wait until the next round to use the exchange card, but this waiting time seemed to be longer than before.

"Shui Qi, don't you think this is taking longer?" Mu Yin frowned, even he had noticed that something was wrong.

“Indeed, more and more players have been coming in, and it seems that even with a dozen or so more golden carrots, it will be difficult to play smoothly. The waiting time for each round is getting longer and longer, which is even more of a waste of time than grabbing just one golden carrot.” Shui Qi stroked his smooth chin and said slowly.

"Is it a trap?" Lian Qiao said softly. "Aren't there many traps on the lawn by the door? Does that mean the Monopoly game inside the room is also a trap?"

“Your guess is very likely. Perhaps, as you said, this house is the biggest trap.” Shui Qi nodded in agreement.

He remembered that Philo had said something like this: "Because of the constant need to evade attacks from outsiders, Duke Rabbit has set up numerous traps throughout the manor."

Throughout the manor, there were numerous traps, and Duke Rabbit never made a move.

The mushroom bombs on the lawn will launch players into the house, meaning the house is the biggest cage designed to restrict their movement.

If that's the case, as long as it's still Monopoly, they absolutely cannot reach the back garden before one o'clock.

The reason there are so many obvious traps on the lawn is definitely to conceal the real road.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Many people feel unsafe going through houses because there are too many traps on the lawn and it is too open. But in reality, this is like a lamb entering a tiger's den.

"Walk by the window later," Shui Qi said to Lian Qiao.

Lian Qiao nodded, though she didn't know what conclusion he had reached, but she obediently did as he said.

"I just saw those rabbit soldiers make some unusual movements." The cold, dark gold vertical pupils glanced at the soldiers standing at the window and said slowly.

It was obvious that when they heard Shui Qi's words, they shifted slightly, as if trying to conceal something.

Does this mean they don't want them to go out?

Lianqiao was lucky enough to roll a '5', and the two of them arrived at the window just in time.

"If I help you, remember to thank me properly," Mu Yin called out to the two of them, then ignored the rules and walked towards the window where they were.

"Please." Shui Qi nodded and said with a light laugh.

As Mu Yin approached, the rabbit soldiers became increasingly vigilant. Suddenly, Mu Yin's figure flashed, and the next second, he appeared at the window.

The windowpane shattered with a crash.

Shui Qi grabbed Lian Qiao's waist with both hands and casually stuffed her out of the window like cotton, then jumped out herself.
