The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 1197 One Hundred Percent (Part 3)

Lin Jiuniang slept until dawn.

Until the knocking sounded again.

Finally, someone outside spoke:
"Ninth Sister, are you awake?"

Judging from the voice, it's Sophie.

Lin Jiuniang paused for a moment before asking:

"Is there a problem?"

"It's already past nine o'clock, time to get ready to start today's schedule. There are some things we'd like to discuss together."

"understood."

Lin Jiuniang got out of bed to wash and dress.

The pain from yesterday, when my body felt like it had been pierced by the poisonous dessert, has subsided considerably, but my stomach still feels slightly uncomfortable and my throat still has a burning sensation.

She opened the wardrobe and finally chose a red top and jeans.

It's not as cumbersome as a skirt, and it makes you look more energetic.

She then applied light makeup in front of the mirror.

It's not for aesthetic reasons.

It's because she discovered that only when she looks pretty enough can she have more amazing expressions and become more popular.

After tidying up, Lin Jiuniang pushed open the door and went downstairs.

Everyone downstairs has arrived.

Some were sitting at the dining table eating breakfast, while others were gathered in the living room, discussing something in hushed tones.

The table was laden with steaming bread, fried eggs, and bacon, along with juice, milk, and fruit—a truly sumptuous meal.

"Good morning, would you like something to eat?"

Liu Sheng, who was drinking juice, offered to pour her a glass.

"Thank you!"

Lin Jiuniang was indeed hungry now.

She walked to the table, grabbed a piece of bread, and stuffed it into her mouth.

The bread is soft and has a rich buttery aroma.

But as she ate, she couldn't help but think of the dessert tower from yesterday, and her stomach churned again.

She forced herself to hold it in and slowly drank a sip of juice to suppress it.

Sophie sat at the other end of the table, her face still pale.

Erica's injuries were no longer visible; she was wearing a dark vest, which made her look even more cold and capable.

Gu Huaizhi and Li Chuankong were sitting in the living room, talking in hushed tones.

Valentine and Hananoin Unsho were standing very close, chatting and laughing happily, with Hananoin Unsho occasionally tapping his arm.

Lin Jiuniang glanced at it and then calmly looked away.

Kirigiri Muneshige huddled at the very edge, his face even paler than yesterday, as if he had just crawled out of a coffin.

Zhu Hengzhi sat alone in another corner, still with that cold, indifferent look.

“Now that Jiu Niang and Wu Qie are here,” Sophie put down her cup, “we can talk about what we discussed last night—”

Ding dong.

The doorbell interrupted her.

This time, Huaizhi took the initiative to open the door.

They brought back another letter with a wax seal.

He opened the package in front of everyone and read it aloud:
"I believe that after yesterday, everyone is already familiar with the schedule of this program."

"In that case, we can truly begin our journey to find our perfect match."

"There are six days left."

"I hope that some of you will achieve your wish."

"but--"

"Today's matching rules are different from yesterday's."

The expressions of everyone immediately turned serious.

Gu Huaizhi continued reading:

"First of all, last night, everyone completed the voting for their preferred candidate."

"what?"

"Is this a vote?"

"I thought it was some kind of 'love letter,' isn't that what dating shows are all about?"

"I told you this isn't a dating show."

"Now, let's announce the voting results—"

Lin Jiuniang silently looked at Valentine.

Valentine smiled, a hint of nonchalant certainty in his expression.

however--

Congratulations to Liu Sheng and Li Chuankong!

"To become today's most popular female and male guests."

Valentine's smile froze.

More attention, however, was focused on Liu Sheng and Li Chuankong.

Lin Jiuniang's heart skipped a beat.

It seems the other female guests have similar thought processes to hers.

Perhaps even Hananoin Yunshang, who is currently clinging to Valentine, wrote about Li Chuankong last night.

Liu Sheng has likely become the object of the male guests' desire to test her.

After all, no one had decided on a target just two days ago.

In situations like this, prioritizing those who seem to reduce risk is the best strategy for long-term success on the show.

"So, today Liu Sheng and Li Chuan Kong will take turns choosing their date partners."

I never imagined that popular guests had this kind of power!
Everyone's expressions were somewhat subtle.

Gu Huaizhi said, "But remember, you can't choose each other."

"The remaining people will be selected in the order they entered the Green Hut on the first day, and those selected cannot refuse."

No one expected that yesterday's order would be so important; some regretted it, while others were relieved.

Erica asked, "What was the order yesterday?"

Gu Huaizhi replied, "It's also written in this letter. Besides the two popular guests, the rest are—Sophie, Kirigiri Muneshige, Erica, Valentine, Lin Jiuniang, Zhu Hengzhi, Yunshang, and Gu Huaizhi."

"All choices will be made in the Green Room. Please enter the Green Room in order to confirm your match and choose your date."

"Alright, that's the content of the letter."

He placed it on the table for everyone to read on their own.

"Shall we choose now?" Li Chuankong asked.

He seemed somewhat regretful, as if he still wanted to be with Liu Sheng.

Sophie asked, "Shall we continue our discussion?"

Erica said, "But this matching rule has completely disrupted the results of our discussion."

Liu Sheng then spoke up: "It is still necessary to discuss this, because there is something I already mentioned last night, and I will share it with Lin Jiuniang and Wuqie Muneshin today."

"What is it?" Lin Jiuniang asked.

Kirigiri Muneshige cast a concerned glance from afar.

"Actually, I chose the location for our date yesterday."

"what!"

Lin Jiuniang immediately felt uneasy.

He gritted his teeth and swallowed the churning in his stomach.

Liu Sheng looked apologetic.

"However, I didn't expect anyone to enter this location."

"As the first person to enter the Green House, I need to arrange the order of these locations on the screen, and the first person of each pair entering the Green House afterward will be matched to these locations in that order."

Everyone gasped.

"Such great power?"

"I'm even more envious of the popular guests."

"So it must have been you who arranged this again today," Sophie said, her eyes narrowing.

Liu Sheng nodded: "It should be." "There are two possibilities now. One is that we still have those five locations to choose from, and the other is that new locations appear."

"Therefore, we should share the information about the five locations from yesterday."

"But...why?" Lin Jiuniang frowned slightly.

"Why what?" Sophie asked.

Aren't we competing with each other?

So you're not going to listen?

"If you're willing to share, of course I'll listen," Lin Jiuniang said with a cold smile.

Sophie shrugged. "Yes. We are indeed competitors, both here and outside. But because of this so-called matching value, there is a potential alliance between us."

"If our 'other half' loses their life because of these dates, it might ultimately drag us down and cost us the chance to win."

"Therefore, I believe that cooperation is the best option until everything becomes clear."

Many people nodded in agreement.

Lin Jiuniang looked at Zhu Hengzhi, but the latter showed no change in expression and was unfathomable.

But Sophie is right.

This information was more harmful than helpful to her.

If someone is willing to share, why not?
“Let’s start by talking,” Li Chuankong said. “We’re going to a place called ‘Mutual Understanding Game Hall’.”

"Those are all old-fashioned arcade games, like claw machines, boxing games, coin pushers, shooting games, racing games, etc. The level of technology there is incomparable to that of the current Federal Empire, and I've never played them."

"That sounds pretty fun." Yunshang's eyes lit up.

Lin Jiuniang: "But there must be danger too, right?"

"That's right. It mainly involves mortgaging a part of your body in exchange for game currency, and then earning a certain amount of game currency within a limited time to redeem it."

"What if we don't play?" Yunshang asked curiously.

“I tried not to get involved,” Erica said calmly, “but I was forcibly dragged into it.”

Lin Jiuniang felt a chill run down her spine.

"That's why we got injured and had a bad start," Valentine said in a nonchalant tone. "Otherwise, with our abilities, we might not have been injured so badly, but we'll tell you the specifics after Lao Li finishes speaking."

"I'm done talking."

"How did you deal with it?" Kirigiri Muneshige finally asked in a low voice.

"That's the price separately," Li Chuankong said with a faint smile.

Lin Jiuniang sneered: "Heh, they call it cooperation, but they're really keeping things under wraps."

"Will you reveal everything?" Li Chuankong asked in return.

Lin Jiuniang remained silent.

"How to deal with it varies from person to person depending on their abilities. Unless we're on a 'date' together, there's no need to reveal too much." Gu Huaizhi nodded in agreement.

Valentine lamented, "We still don't know who is the best match for us. Ultimately, we are still competitors, so cooperation can only be limited."

"However, if the beautiful lady asks me, I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

He blinked.

Lin Jiuniang felt that it was winking at her.

Next, Valentine, Sophie, and Gu Huaizhi took turns sharing their "date activities" from yesterday.

Valentine and Erica went to the "Memory Photo Studio," where certain catastrophic imaginings during the photoshoot would come true.

Sophie and Munemaru Kirigiri went to the "Heartbeat Adventure House," which is said to use the suspension bridge effect to create a special bond between the two.

In reality, there are various scare designs inside. Once the heartbeats accelerate to a certain frequency, they will get closer and closer, and may even launch an attack.

Gu Huaizhi and Yunshang went to the "Love Handicraft Workshop" to make "love souvenirs" together, except that the raw materials would come from each other.

Of course, none of them revealed how they dealt with it, including Valentine, who said he was "open to all information".

Finally, Lin Jiuniang recounted her experience from the previous day.

Zhu Hengzhi had already said it once last night, so now it's just to let Kirigiri Muneshige hear it.

Hearing the cruel reality of this "romantic dessert shop" again, everyone felt a pang of sympathy.

After these discussions, it was already past ten o'clock, and it was time to begin today's official schedule.

“There’s a problem. We already knew the pairing arrangements when we checked the matching values ​​yesterday, so what about today?” Yunshang asked.

Gu Huaizhi said, "You can only make a choice after entering the Green Room today."

Yunshang frowned: "What I mean is, if someone has already chosen you, doesn't that mean you can't choose anymore?"

"That's very likely the case."

"Does that mean even if we know the matching score comparison results, we still can't choose the one with a higher matching score?"

Erica shrugged: "So either become a popular guest, or communicate with the other party privately."

"We'll know the specifics once we go through the process," Sophie said seriously.

Yunshang immediately blinked her eyes and looked at Li Chuankong pitifully: "Brother Li, let's go on a date~"

Li Chuankong pretended not to hear.

She then turned to Valentine and said:

"Don't be angry, Brother Valentine. I'm just a little curious about Brother Li. Of course, if we are destined to meet again, I would also like to be with you."

Valentine didn't seem to care much and chuckled:
"Don't worry, there will be opportunities."

That's tantamount to not agreeing to anything at all.

Since no one has yet confirmed the second matching value, of course no one dares to make any promises.

Liu Sheng was about to get up and leave.

"and many more."

Someone called out to her.

It was Zhu Hengzhi.

"Have you thought about how to arrange the locations? If we continue in this order, some people may find it difficult to cope with certain scenarios."

Lin Jiuniang couldn't help but say coldly, "Are you saying you are?"

“Of course.” Zhu Hengzhi nodded calmly. “With my special physique, there are many scenarios that I am destined to be unable to handle together.”

Liu Sheng replied, "I can only say that I can arrange the order slightly, but some people will definitely be picked in advance, so it's hard for me to guarantee."

"As long as those who were more seriously injured yesterday don't encounter a situation that requires a large amount of blood and flesh to be consumed again, it will be fine," Gu Huaizhi said.

Both Kirigiri Muneshige and Lin Jiuniang nodded.

However, Erica crossed her arms and said, "Actually, all scenes have this element, so it's hard to avoid."

"But Zhu Hengzhi..."

“I think I can play a bigger role in arcade games,” Zhu Hengzhi said proactively.

“But how can we guarantee that Liu Sheng will definitely arrange it for you? You are the eighth one, aren’t you?” Lin Jiuniang said coldly.

"We can schedule it as late as possible," Zhu Hengzhi said.

Liu Sheng, however, said directly:
"Need not."

"Because I will choose you directly."

Everyone was stunned.

Even Zhu Hengzhi was rarely able to calm down because of such a direct attack, and his expression changed several times.

Lin Jiuniang was even more surprised.

"You...would you like to think about it..."

She didn't know why she said those words.

Wouldn't it be better if Liu Sheng really got tricked and killed by Zhu Hengzhi during their date?
Sophie also hesitated to speak.

It's likely that everyone witnessed Lin Jiuniang's miserable state yesterday, and now everyone is keeping their distance from Zhu Hengzhi.

Liu Sheng replied, "It's nothing, I know my choice."

After saying that, she went out and walked straight into the little green house.

Li Chuankong shook his head and followed him out.

It was getting late, so the others entered the small green room in order.

Lin Jiuniang is the seventh.

When she went in, she saw the same five pictures on the screen again, only in a slightly different order.

The first four images have already gone dark.

Only the last one, representing the "Love and Care Handicraft Workshop," was still lit up.

An extra line of text appeared below:

[You have been selected as a date by Muneshige Kirigiri.]

You will proceed to location E for your appointment, in that order.
