After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 173 Shen Jinxi Knows the Truth
"What do you mean by dying on the same day?" Shen Jinxi's expression changed.

He Zi smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "Why are you so nervous? Isn't there a saying that goes, 'We don't ask to be born on the same day, month, and year, but we ask to die on the same day, month, and year'?"

"Our relationship isn't that good yet."

Shen Jinxi was unwilling to die with her.

He Zi could see the other person's reluctance, but she didn't care. When someone is about to die, why would she care whether the other person cares or not?

"Take these things back; I don't need them."

Aside from the very beginning, Shen Jinxi didn't even glance at the things on the table afterward.

"Are you sure you don't cherish this one of the few times I've been good to you?"

Shen Jinxi was furious. "He Zi, what exactly do you want? Don't you have anything to do? Why are you always bothering me?"

"I'm doing what I'm doing right now, protecting our relationship," He Zi smiled slightly, spreading her hands with an innocent expression. "Don't you like it when I'm good to you?"

"do not like."

He Zi twirled her hair with her index finger, her gaze towards Shen Jinxi changed, and she said casually, "Fine, but you're the one who didn't want it."

This time, He Zi didn't linger and left with her things.

For some reason, Shen Jinxi felt that He Zi was particularly strange today, speaking in a way that was incomprehensible and illogical.

This feeling of being suspended in mid-air made Shen Jinxi feel extremely insecure.

She summoned the system, "System?"

No one agreed.

For the next three days, Shen Jinxi's system did not appear again, which was the longest time the system had been away from her.

Shen Jinxi was no longer calm. She remembered the warning from the surveillance camera last time, which meant that if she got any closer, she would be at risk of being exposed.

Her actions affected not only herself, but also the system and the people who developed it.

Shen Jinxi calmed down and thought about it. At the time, she didn't take those words to heart, taking it as the other party's fear that she would intercept Cheng Guo.

He even threatened the person to reveal their true identity.

Was that person really reminding me?

Shen Jinxi regretted her actions and decided to go back to the vicinity of the Wuming Prison to wait and see if she could make contact with that person.

Shen Jinxi drove alone to the entrance of the Wuming Prison.

The entrance has been closed, and even the surrounding area is blocked by air walls set up by the stars, making it impossible to get close.

Shen Jinxi touched the invisible wall, muttering, "How could this be? It wasn't like this when I came last time."

"You came."

A simulated stone on the ground made a sound, attracting Shen Jinxi's attention.

Shen Jinxi looked up at the ground in confusion, "Who?"

"You'll never know someone like me. You must have come here to see me, right?"

The sound emitted by the stone is specially processed, making it impossible to hear other people's real voices. At the same time, this thing has the option to self-destruct.

It was Tang Xiaoyan who had someone release them, with the intention of waiting for Shen Jinxi.

The voice this time was different from the voice in the last surveillance video, which caused Shen Jinxi to not recognize it for a while.

However, judging from the tone of his words, Shen Jinxi guessed that this person was the one who had reminded her last time.

"My system is gone, where did it go?"

Shen Jinxi's questioning tone was so self-righteous and infuriating that it was impossible not to feel good about it.

Tang Xiaoyan's reply was equally impatient.

“I don’t know where your system went. All I know is that it will never come back to you. Not only that, Xingduan also knows your secrets.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Jinxi's heart skipped a beat, and her face instantly turned deathly pale.

"how is this possible?"

"You stupid pig! I warned you back then that this was a trap, but you wouldn't believe me and insisted on courting death. Now look what happened." Tang Xiaoyan saw Shen Jinxi's face darken through the surveillance camera and felt much better.

"Let me give you another piece of advice."

Hearing the advice, Shen Jinxi thought there was still a chance for things to turn around. "What?"

"Go back now, eat and drink well, and wait to die."

Upon hearing this, Shen Jinxi felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured directly from her head to her heels, leaving her speechless with cold.

She opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

Tang Xiaoyan watched the monitor, frantically taking screenshots and recording the screen, preparing to send Shen Jinxi's reaction to Sang Tian.

"If Stardust finds out, how could it not punish me?"

"Miss, you don't think you're some kind of special individual, do you? Can't you tell we're using you for entrapment?"

Tang Xiaoyan's sarcastic tone became a sharp blade, stabbing straight into Shen Jinxi's heart.

Shen Jinxi fell silent, standing there without saying a word.

Worried that Xingduan would notice, Tang Xiaoyan quickly deactivated the surveillance camera after saying her last sentence and then swiftly switched her IP address.

Seeing the self-destructing surveillance camera, Shen Jinxi finally lost her temper and let out a hysterical scream.

She didn't understand why her life would get worse and worse if she could start over.

Suddenly, snow began to fall from the sky, with snowflakes landing on Shen Jinxi's hair and shoulders.

In less than ten minutes, I turned into a snowman.

As the temperature dropped, Shen Jinxi felt her body freeze and gradually become numb. She bent her fingers and kicked the exploded surveillance camera away in frustration.

Sang Tian soon received a screenshot from Tang Xiaoyan.

She glanced at it briefly, not caring at all, but instead worried about Tang Xiaoyan's safety.

Aren't you afraid of being caught by criminals?

After their previous discussion, Sang Tian and Tang Xiaoyan unanimously decided to replace "Star End" with "Bad End" to avoid being subject to keyword extraction and review by Star End.

[Don't worry, I switched IPs several times, so they definitely won't be able to find anything. I even had my assistant clean up my mess, so there's absolutely no problem.]

The system was replaced with a smaller one.

[See? She was so angry she couldn't speak, and her bewildered expression was satisfying, wasn't it?]

She's just so-so; I often make her this angry.

Upon seeing this message, Tang Xiaoyan quickly posted another one: "You are this one," followed by a thumbs-up.

How is the progress of the face masks?

Sang Tian thought that the day was getting closer and closer, and Tang Xiaoyan's poison mask was only one-third complete.

I'll resume work as soon as the materials arrive tomorrow, and I'll definitely finish it this week. You can rest assured.

Sang Tian didn't urge her further. "Yes, you should prepare some yourself too."

For a long time to come, we'll probably have to wear masks when we go out.

The poisonous fog also affects females, weakening the abilities of powerful females and leaving them to wait to be brutally killed by their strong beastmen.

There are only twelve days left until next month.

Tang Xiaoyan has already had the system send this message back to the capital of Fanjin, hoping to seek help from there.

There are countless powerful people in the city of Fanjin, and Tang Xiaoyan hopes they can come up with a solution, or something like a vaccine or antidote.

Three or four days have passed since the message was sent back, but there has been no reply yet.

Sang Tian knew what Tang Xiaoyan was about to say.

Get ready for next month.

Tang Xiaoyan still couldn't bear it. "Are you really not going to tell me?"

　Only one update today, taking leave.
