My avatar is becoming the final boss

Chapter 232 The Sixth Child, The Tragedy of Paradise (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The elevator doors opened, leading to the floor above. The mentor smiled slightly and gently nudged Ji Minghuan's shoulder.

The two stepped into the newly built children's playground together.

On the swing, a girl named "Shang Xiaochi" raised her dark eyes and stared at the two of them expressionlessly.

Ji Minghuan raised her eyes and looked at her curiously, thinking to herself, if what the mentor said is true, is another mythical child coming? How am I supposed to win against the Salvation Society?

“Mentor, do you think there’s a possibility?” he asked.

"what?"

The mentor turned to look at him.

“You’ve always been obsessed with maintaining balance and eliminating destabilizing factors in the world,” Ji Minghuan said in a low voice. “In the end, you yourselves have become the ones who most disrupt the balance.”

“That’s a possibility,” the mentor replied calmly, “but even so, someone needs to step forward.”

Ji Minghuan was too lazy to say anything.

"Sun Changkong and the others will be here soon," the instructor said. "I'll go first. You can talk to Xiaochi for a bit. She's a bit withdrawn, so be careful not to scare her."

After saying that, the mentor returned to the elevator car and waved to him with a smile.

Ji Minghuan rolled her eyes at him, then turned back around.

Shang Xiaochi still stared at him warily, like a young animal. The small beauty mark at the corner of her eye made her seem even more distant.

“Don’t come any closer,” she said.

"This is your home, you can't just leave like that?" Ji Minghuan frowned. "Fine... this is your home." After saying that, his brows relaxed and he raised his hands in surrender.

He sat down cross-legged on the spot, his head drooping.

After a moment, he asked a familiar question: "My name is Ji Minghuan. How did you get here?"

Seeing that Shang Xiaochi was keeping his head down and not speaking, he continued, "Tell me, did you eat your father or your mother? Or did you accidentally blow your classmate's head off and lose control, killing everyone in the village?"

As Ji Minghuan picked at the scabs on his fingers, he said casually, "Don't be surprised... These are all things that the kids here have actually experienced. Welcome to the Savior Squad, there are plenty of weirdos here."

Shang Xiaochi frowned but didn't say anything.

She silently got up from the swing, took a few steps back, and sat down in the maze behind her.

"Alright, lots of kids will be coming over later." Ji Minghuan didn't seem to care. "You can be friends with them even if you don't want to be friends with me."

Shang Xiaochi said, slowly and deliberately, "I don't need friends."

"So you only talk to your advisor?" Ji Minghuan asked curiously.

“I hate him and I don’t talk to him,” Shang Xiaochi said coldly. “I don’t like it here.”

Ji Minghuan was stunned, seemingly not expecting that there would be children in the Salvation Society who had not been brainwashed by their mentors.

Is it because she has a strong mental defense that her mentor can't do anything to her?

He said, "I hate him too, and I don't like it here either."

"I don't believe it," Shang Xiaochi said. "You're definitely his shill..."

Her words came to an abrupt halt—

Because the next moment, Ji Minghuan suddenly spoke like a machine gun firing:
"My mentor is a complete idiot, always making empty promises or lying to kids! If I were a Stand user, I'd use 'The World' to stop time, and then beat him into a pig's head with Star Platinum before he got electrocuted!"

Shang Xiaochi was stunned.

"Look how much I hate him?" Ji Minghuan turned to look at her.

A moment later, the instructor's warm voice suddenly came through the broadcasting equipment:

"It won't happen again."

Ji Minghuan said dismissively, "Don't say 'never again,' you clearly want to electrocute me right now."

A moment later, Shang Xiaochi slowly emerged from the maze. She still had her hands behind her back, her fingers gently intertwined. After thinking for a while with her head down, she looked up at him.

"What's your name?" she asked.

"Ji Minghuan".

"You're the one he said... the one who will destroy the world?" Shang Xiaochi raised an eyebrow.

“I haven’t destroyed the world yet, nor have I become a big bad guy,” Ji Minghuan said. “But it will be soon… My mentor was sent by God to urge me to destroy the world. I have already seen through the Salvation Society’s conspiracy; they are actually the Destroyer Society.”

Shang Xiaochi sat down next to him, hugged her knees, and asked softly, "Can you really destroy the world?"

"it should be OK."

"If you're so capable, why are you locked up here?"

"Bad luck, I was framed by that scoundrel of a mentor."

"Can you do me a favor?"

"You said."

"Can you kill me?" Shang Xiaochi hugged her knees. "They are afraid of you, so they won't kill you or punish you. Only you can kill me."

Ji Minghuan was stunned.

“Classmate, we need to keep our distance. I refuse to communicate with you in any way until you put on your red scarf,” he said earnestly.

"But I don't have a red scarf."

Shang Xiaochi frowned.

"Then don't talk to me. I'm a dark elementary school student, not a depressed elementary school student. Depression is contagious, and I don't want to suddenly become depressed one day."

As Ji Minghuan spoke, she silently hugged her knees and shifted her hips to the side to create some distance between herself and the other woman.

Neither of them spoke.

After a moment, Ji Minghuan asked, "Why do you want to die?"

"Death will end the pain, which is better than being locked up here."

The girl with the beauty mark under her eye lowered her head and muttered softly. "I understand..." Ji Minghuan breathed a sigh of relief, "So you're a dark elementary school student after all. I thought you were serious just now."

What is a "darkened elementary school student"?

As Ji Minghuan drew circles on the ground with his finger, he said, "They are those kids who keep saying 'Humans are so boring, the world is so boring,' but they act all high and mighty, thinking they've seen through human nature, and they post pictures of themselves cutting their wrists on QQ Space every day."

"Then I must be a corrupted elementary school student, right?" Shang Xiaochi wasn't quite sure.

Ji Minghuan reached out her hand.

"doing what?"

"Shake hands. I'm also a corrupted elementary school student, I've found a kindred spirit."

Shang Xiaochi hesitated for a moment, then grasped his hand. Ji Minghuan shook it vigorously, and she shook it vigorously in return.

"I'll help you escape later, so don't die yet," Ji Minghuan whispered.

"Can you escape?"

“Of course you can escape,” Ji Minghuan said calmly. “You’re the only child here who wants to run away, which is why I said I’ve found someone like you.”

"Then let's go now."

"Not now, uh... not yet."

“You were lying after all…” Shang Xiaochi suddenly said hoarsely, “I knew no one here would tell the truth…”

She hugged her knees, buried her head in them, and stared at the ground without moving. Suddenly, her eyes reddened.

Ji Minghuan was stunned.

"I can't stand it, elementary school kids are so unpredictable." He sighed. "It's so annoying, let's just run away, the worst that can happen is we get electrocuted."

After saying that, he angrily grabbed her hand, got up and walked towards the elevator, raising his hand to press the control panel.

However, before her right hand could even touch the button, the elevator doors slowly opened to both sides.

Ji Minghuan raised an eyebrow and looked up.

“Kong Youling…you stepped on my tail again,” Fiorio said.

“I already said that Little Ling stepping on you is a reward for you,” Sun Changkong said.

"It's so noisy! Can't you guys let people play games in peace?" Mario said.

“I didn’t mean to,” Kong Youling wrote in her notebook.

The next second, the four children in the elevator car suddenly looked up and silently stared at the two people holding hands.

Under their gaze, Ji Minghuan slowly released her hand and lowered her head.

A few seconds later, he said in a serious tone, "Let me introduce you. This is our newest member, Shang Xiaochi, from the Blackened Elementary School Student Alliance."

After saying that, he turned his head, saluted Shang Xiaochi, and then shook her hand: "Comrade, let's work together to advance the cause of corrupting primary and secondary school students and improve the public image of corrupted primary school students."

In silence, the elevator doors slowly closed.

Through the gap in the elevator doors, the blank faces of the four children disappeared from Ji Minghuan's sight.

A few seconds later, with a "ding-dong" sound, the elevator doors opened again.

The four children inside the sedan chair were still dumbfounded.

The elevator doors closed again.

When the elevator doors opened again, the children inside finally realized what was happening and put on a disdainful expression.

“I understand, I’ve played some dating games before.” Mario was the first to step forward and patted Ji Minghuan on the shoulder. “Holding hands on the first meeting… well, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.”

"I shouldn't have cared about her; I'll never get married."

After Ji Minghuan finished speaking, she took a few steps back in confusion and sat down on the swing as if she had lost her soul.

Shang Xiaochi glanced at them, then turned to look at Ji Minghuan's departing figure.

"So... this is what betrayal tastes like?"

Shang Xiaochi murmured to herself, her eyes red.

Seeing her dejected expression, Sun Changkong pushed Frio out of the elevator and ordered:

"Go, Philio, make her happy!"

"I?"

Filio pointed blankly at himself.

"Otherwise what? Stop dawdling!" Sun Changkong urged.

Filio, tasked with this urgent mission, had no choice but to lean over and say earnestly, "Don't be upset, look at my ears! I'm Big Ear TuTu."

As he spoke, he perked up his wolf ears, which suddenly twitched up and then drooped down, twitched up and then drooped down again.

Shang Xiaochi was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

Filio opened one eye and peeked at her, then clutched his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's all Ji Minghuan's fault, Ji Minghuan is too evil." Sun Changkong muttered, "That hateful evil elementary school student, he turned evil himself and wants to make others turn evil too."

After saying that, she glared at Ji Minghuan, who was watching Mario play the handheld game.

Kong Youling nodded slightly and wrote in her notebook: "That's right."

Philo turned to look at Shang Xiaochi and asked curiously, "So, why were you crying just now?"

“You can’t understand…” Shang Xiaochi said softly, “Those who haven’t experienced betrayal in friendship are not worthy of understanding me.”

Kong Youling rested her chin on her hand holding the pencil, tilted her head, and thought seriously for a while.

Finally, he lowered his head, wrote down the new couple's names in his notebook, then drew a box around their names and added a few words:
—Shang Xiaochi (now corrupted).
