Chapter 118, the most terrifying episode

Chapter 118: The Most Terrifying Episode (7k)

Holding the knife, he stood at the head of Yangyang's bedside.

She was fast asleep.

Ji Yi: 'Go away, I'll check myself whether I'm asleep or not.'

Throughout the day, the Eye of Data had almost no effect on the instance, to the point that Ji Yi began to have some doubts.

Although the possibility of eye failure is not high.

But it's better to verify it yourself.

As she thought about it, the gleaming knife flashed in front of Yangyang, its reflected cold light constantly flashing across her face.

It looks like he is really asleep.

Despite a terrifying thought lingering in his mind—perhaps killing her would be the key to clearing the game—he still had a horrifying idea in mind.
But Ji Yi won't do such a thing, at least not for the time being.

The instance is named "Yangyang's Love," so we should think in that direction. Constantly looking for shortcuts and bugs might just get us killed. Besides, Yangyang hasn't shown any signs of being the big boss; she's just an ordinary girl.

He slowly got up and looked around the room.

The data analysis still found no useful information; there was nothing unusual about the room.

It seems that Yangyang was simply being shy as a young girl, which is why she wouldn't let him into the room.

But I still feel uneasy.
Let's look again.

There is a computer in the room that belongs to Yangyang.

Press the power button on the computer, and the computer will display the username and password screen.

The password is YYYY1314.

This is the most useful episode of Data Eye.

'A lifetime of tender affection, huh? How strange.'

Enter the password, and the computer screen lights up.

The computer is very simple; you can tell from the full C drive that Yangyang knows nothing about computers.

Let's look for clues.

In the dimly lit room, the only light source cast a huge black shadow of Ji Yi's upper body onto the swaying bed.

Browser search history

Flipping through the pages from top to bottom shows history from newest to oldest.

April 17, 2025: "My boyfriend wants to have sex with me, what should I do?"

3.23: "Does kissing always require sticking out the tongue?"

3.7: "Can kissing cause pregnancy?"

February 2.19th: "I got a boyfriend today, what should I do with him?"

Today is April 18th, and there are only two months' worth of data on my computer.

Therefore, according to the timeline of the story, Yangyang and Yiyi only dated for two months.

They continued searching for clues, but to no avail.

It's now completely certain that the key to the dungeon quest lies with Yangyang herself; the house is merely a setting.

We didn't find much information today, but at least the goal is now completely clear.

"Since things have come to this, let's play a game."

One o'clock.

"If I grab it with my claw hook and soften the meat, won't you explode?"

"If I activate my Demon Transformation, won't you explode?"

"If I trim your toenails, won't you explode?"

"We've exhausted our attempts; the campaign has failed."

"What a trash game, you might as well play cards."

After putting down the keyboard and mouse, Ji Yi planned to go back to her room to sleep.

"uh-huh."

I heard Yangyang waking up behind me.

Ji Yi hurriedly tried to shut down the computer, but it seemed that the C drive was full, and the computer was extremely slow at this time.

Yangyang woke up quickly, still sleepy-eyed:
"Yiyi? What are you doing in someone else's room?"

Ji Yi turned around and gave an awkward smile: "I couldn't sleep, so I came to your room to play a game to relax."

Yangyang rubbed her eyes and tilted her head:
"But how did you get in? I always lock the door properly at night to prevent bad Yiyi from raiding people's homes."

At this moment, the computer screen finally went out, and the room became dark again.

Ji Yi explained, "You were talking in your sleep. You asked me to come to your room, and I said I'd be right there, so I came in."

Yangyang had no doubts: "Oh, so it's because he was dreaming about Yiyi."

As she was speaking, she suddenly sensed a cold glint in her peripheral vision.

Yangyang turned her head and looked at the kitchen knife on the bedside table:

"Yiyi, why did you put a knife on someone's bedside table? Don't tell me you're planning to kill Yangyang?"

"!"

Ji Yi paused for a moment, but quickly regained her composure.

He immediately stepped forward, picked up the knife, knelt on one knee, and held the kitchen knife with both hands:

"Yi recently obtained a Seven-Star Sword and presented it to Yangyang."

Yangyang tilted her head: "?"

"Yiyi is so strange, she always speaks in a way that Yangyang can't understand."

Ji Yi chuckled and stood up:

"I was just joking around. I was in the kitchen preparing ingredients for tomorrow when you called me, so I answered immediately. I didn't even have time to put down the knife."

He finished speaking without giving her a chance to think carefully about the logic behind it.

"I'm not going to talk about it anymore. You should go to sleep. Staying up late will make you ugly."

As Ji Yi spoke, she walked straight toward the door.

Before leaving, I saw that Yangyang obediently closed her eyes tightly.

Silly women are easy to fool.

After closing the door, Ji Yi walked to the kitchen and put the knife back in its place.

Suddenly I remembered that Yangyang had said during the day that the food in the refrigerator would automatically refresh.

Walk to the refrigerator and open the freezer compartment.

Inside, rows of ice cream were neatly arranged.

This thing isn't there during the day.

Opening the refrigerator compartment revealed a wide variety of drinks, all of which were Ji Yi's favorites.

"hiss"

Take a breath.

I glanced at the kitchen trash can out of the corner of my eye. The food scraps from today's cooking were gone, and a new trash bag had been put on it.

This place is too eerie.

the next day.

"Silly Yiyi~ You stayed up late last night and you're still not awake. Hurry up and get up to cook for Yangyang~ It's your turn to cook today."

My body was being held and shaken by a pair of small hands.

Ji Yu opened his eyes.

Good morning, Yangyang.

"Cooking, cooking~ Yangyang is hungry now."

"Okay, would you like a good morning kiss?"

"Hmph, you naughty Yiyi! If you're going to give it, just give it directly. Why ask me? You're so mean!"

Ji Yi smiled faintly and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

If he's right, this dungeon requires increasing Yangyang's favorability; once it reaches a certain level, you can clear it.

Perhaps the condition is reaching base, or perhaps a deeper level of intimacy.

But given that it was Nightmare difficulty, Ji Yi didn't think things would be that simple.

Even the sudden life-or-death crises that frequently occur in Nightmare difficulty are nowhere to be seen in this dungeon.

The more this is the case, the greater the difficulty of passing the level will likely be.

Developing a romantic relationship is the correct way to clear this dungeon.

So, how can I match the difficulty level to Nightmare?

such as
Do players need to genuinely and completely fall in love with Yangyang?

Unwavering until death? Never wanting to be separated from Yangyang?

It feels a bit scary.

As she pondered, Ji Yi began preparing breakfast.

Breakfast was ready quickly.

The two enjoyed the quiet morning.

After the meal, Yangyang obediently put the dishes in the sink.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she said, "Yiyi, when are you going to return the microphone I lent you? I want to sing today."

Ji Yi's expression changed slightly, and she took out the purple microphone:

"Is it this one?"

"Yes, yes! This is something bouncy~"

Ji Yi turned on the vibration mode.

"Om-"

Why is this feature on the microphone?

"Hmph~ You naughty Yiyi must be thinking bad things! I just use it to massage my shoulders!"

"Oh."

Soon, the two sat on the sofa and turned on the multimedia device in front of them.

"Yiyi, I want to hear you sing me a love song, is that okay?"

Ji Yi nodded: "No problem."

He took the purple microphone.

Ji Yi focused his energy in his dantian, and then a metallic, tearing sound rang out:

"Kill him!!! And kill me while you're at it~~~ Please~!"

Yangyang: "."

Ji Yi: "Why do you look so unhappy? Don't you like this song? Then let's not sing love songs, I'll change it for you."

Ji Yi spoke again: "But my sorrow outweighed all those who loved me, so I killed all my lovers—but you..."

"oops!"

Yangyang interrupted with a disgruntled cry:
"What do you mean by 'kill you' or 'kill me'? Yangyang doesn't like that. Give the microphone back to her!"

It was handed back to Yangyang.

She picked up the microphone, then selected a song, and her sweet voice filled the room:
"I know you don't like rock music, but even just a little bit would be nice—I want you to be closer to me~~~"

"My heart rate has reached 190 BPM! Have you noticed?"

Ji Yi gradually became immersed in the song.

This isn't a particularly sweet love song, but Yangyang sang it with such passion, and her emotions were completely genuine.

Looking at Yangyang's adorable profile.
He actually felt somewhat intoxicated.

Perhaps staying here forever wouldn't be so bad. Living in the same room with Yangyang, the refrigerator would produce fresh food every day, the trash can would empty itself, and we could play games on the computer.
"Yangyang, wait for me, I need to go to the restroom."

"Oh."

Ji Yi rushed straight to the bathroom and looked at herself in the vanity mirror.

"Magic mirror on the wall, tell me, am I under a spell?"

【.】

You appear perfectly normal; you are of sound mind, and there has been no external interference.

"Then let me ask you again, is she really just an ordinary girl? Not the kind of person who turns into a yandere and tries to stab me to death whenever I try to escape?"

In fact, given the strength of an adult male, it would be very difficult for her to kill you unless it was a sneak attack.

Is she really just an ordinary girl?

How can I get her to let me leave here?

【.】

Data Eye seems unwilling to respond to such a silly question.

In that case, why not try threatening them with force?
It's unlikely to work; intimidation or even killing Yangyang could lead to the risk of losing her job.

"We can only use gentle methods."

As I stepped out of the bathroom, Yangyang had just finished singing.

She looked at Ji Yi who was walking towards her: "Yi Yi, I wanted to ask you yesterday, where did you get that red hair clip on your head? Why do you always wear it? It looks so ugly on you, even though you're not a girl."

Ji Yi was stunned for a moment.

Set the equipment [Misaki Maeda's Hairpin] to be displayed.

"You could see this thing just now?"

Yangyang pouted: "Of course! Yiyi is pretending to be stupid! Which girl gave you this token of love?"

Ji Yi took off the hair clip: "She's just an eight or nine-year-old girl, and you're jealous of that?"

Yangyang didn't say anything, but just puffed out her cheeks.

Ji Yi went up and pinched her cheek.

"puff."

The air was forced out.

"bad!"

Yangyang turned her head away.

"Okay, don't be angry anymore, let's sing."

This game of pretend play continued once again.

As there was no progress, Ji Yi inevitably became increasingly impatient.

Soon, another day had passed.

Got nothing.

Day three.

I woke up in my room and saw Yangyang making breakfast; she seemed to be frying eggs.

"Yangyang, can't I really go out? Even just the two of us?"

Yangyang nodded seriously: "No, Yiyi wants to be with Yangyang forever and ever, and we will never be separated."

Ji Yi: "What if I get sick? I think I have claustrophobia and want a spacious environment to sunbathe. You should care about my mental health."

Yangyang didn't seem to care: "If you're sick, just take your medicine~ Sweetie Yiyi, do you want Yangyang to take care of you?"

As she spoke, she took a first-aid kit from a cabinet.

Ji Yi frowned slightly.

He had checked the box before; it only contained ordinary medical supplies. So why is it now?
【Name: Panacea *5】

[Type: consumables]

[Quality: Myth]

[Effect: Can heal all physical and psychological traumas and illnesses, as well as all negative effects]

[Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes]

[Note: You can use it in any situation, even to resurrect the dead.]

Ji Yi's eyes were filled with shock.

This is definitely not an ordinary dungeon!
[Yes, it's definitely not ordinary, because this is a nightmare scenario.]

[Want one now? It can even heal soul trauma. Just imagine the two malfunctioning souls in your brain as viruses when you take it, and you can completely eliminate any future problems.]

Of course, I don't recommend you do that, at least not now.

Ji Yi's breathing became heavy: "Where did this medicine come from?"

"This is for treating Yiyi's illness~ Whenever Yiyi gets sick, medicine will appear in the box!"

As Yangyang spoke, she picked up a magic pill: "Open your mouth, ah~"

Ji Yi instinctively dodged away: "No, I'm not eating now, it's too wasteful."

Yangyang put her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction: "Hmph~ You're not going to eat, huh?"

She shoved the medicine into her mouth with a gulp.

Then, holding Ji Yi's face, he stood on tiptoe.

Feeling a pill coming down into her mouth, Ji Yi had no choice but to swallow it.

"That's really... bad Yiyi, she definitely did it on purpose."

Yangyang's pretty face flushed red, and she ran back to her room.

Ji Yi: "."

Looking at the four remaining panaceas in the box, Ji Yi put them into her inventory.

This alone made the trip worthwhile.

The prerequisite is that you can get out; otherwise, you can't take the items you get from this instance with you when you die.

We need to think of a way out quickly.
in the afternoon.

After the meal, Ji Yi got straight to the point:

"Yangyang, I want to go out. Do you know that there is a kind of love called letting go? Some birds can't be kept in a cage."

Upon hearing this, Yangyang glanced at Ji Yi's crotch.

Guan Yu: "Passing five passes and slaying six generals!"

"Yangyang!"

Ji Yi stepped forward and grasped her shoulders:

"Please, I really need to get out. I have an 80-year-old mother in the ICU who needs care and support, and a kitten locked up in our rented room. If I don't go back, they'll all die. Yangyang, how can you bear to become a murderer?!"

Tears welling up, intense emotions, adrenaline.

It was a perfect performance, inside and out.

This silly girl couldn't possibly not believe it. "No, no, doesn't Yiyi love me anymore? You can't leave."

Ji Yi: "What about my worries outside? Yangyang, please. You can come out with me! I won't leave you!"

Yangyang shook her head: "I can't."

Her emotions also began to become unstable.

"Yiyi!"

With a thud, she pounced on Ji Yi and hugged him, knocking him to the ground.

Tears streamed down her face like rain:

"I'm sorry, Yiyi, my love is so selfish. I'm sorry, Yiyi, you have to stay with me. You must stay with me."

She held Ji Yi tightly, burying her face in his chest.

I will absolutely, absolutely, absolutely not let you leave.

Ji Yi looked down at Yang Yang, and Yang Yang looked up at Ji Yi:

"Yiyi, you're never allowed to leave me in this lifetime, never, ever."

I could feel an unwavering belief that could overcome any obstacle emanating from your gaze.
For the first time, Ji Yi felt despair.

"Are you still going to see the fireworks display?"

After sending the message, Xie Jiayi waited for a while but did not receive a reply.

She decided to take a shower first.

*Whoosh!* (Paid unlock).

Thirty minutes later, Xie Jiayi came out of the bathroom.

Take out a light purple one with lace trim.

"You can't button it up properly, have you gained weight?"

I weighed myself, and it doesn't seem to have changed much.

I took out the measuring tape, and the lower circumference remained unchanged.

The conclusion was obvious: it was a larger cup, and upon measurement, it was indeed the case.

I opened Taobao and bought ten new items from my usual store in one go.

Blow-dry hair, put on makeup, get dressed.

More than an hour passed.

Ji Yi picked up her phone, but still didn't reply to the message.

Open WeChat clone.

[AAA Brand Design]: "What are you doing?"

"Want to meet up in person? I'll say yes!"

Less than a minute later, Hsieh Chia-yi quickly retracted the message.

strangeness.

After tidying up her appearance again, she knocked on the door next door:

"Mr. Ji? Mr. Ji?"

There was no response for a long time.

"never mind."

Hsieh Chia-yi left the apartment directly, took the subway, and arrived at the night market she had mentioned.

I used to stroll around here with Song Wanyao.

I bought some food at the food street.

"Hey beautiful, are you alone? Can I add you on WeChat?"

A strange man's voice came from beside me.

Hsieh Chia-yi responded calmly, "I'm waiting for my boyfriend."

"Oh, sorry to bother you." The other person left awkwardly.

Considering the various attempts to flirt with me that I'll likely face later, I'll skip the nearby bars.

Holding snacks, I headed towards the area where I could watch the fireworks display.

There are many couples in the neighborhood.

After waiting for a while, the fireworks display began.

Crackling and popping.

Fireworks filled the sky, as dazzling as stars.

The fireworks were beautiful.

I took the subway back to my apartment early.

Hsieh Chia-yi removed her makeup and changed into loose pajamas, but there was still no reply on her phone.

I glanced at the automatic food feeder, the self-service water dispenser, and the automatic cat teaser.

Everything is normal, enough for Xiaobai to eat, drink and play. The cat litter was changed today as well.

“link start.”

Enter the game world.

Ji Yi was indeed in the instance.
A strange sense of irritation welled up inside me, but I still opened Ji Yi's chat window:

"Contact me as soon as you leave the instance."

After sending the message, she saw a new message from [Want to eat candied hawthorns]:

"Sister Xue, Tang Hulu and I want to play a multiplayer match, wanna join?"

After thinking for a moment, I typed a reply: "Okay."

Eight hours later.

Congratulations to player "Schrödinger's Cat" for winning the game!

You are the sole survivor on the field!

[Hidden achievement unlocked: One against a hundred!]

Your completion rewards will be significantly increased!

Tang Hulu and Wang Meng frantically sent messages:

"Sister Xue, you're amazing!"

"Sister Xue is so amazing! I'm no match for her at all. I got wiped out in no time, sob sob."

At the same time, the forum was in an uproar.

The headline that made it to the top of the homepage was:
[Ji Yi was just a scapegoat! The real master is "Schrödinger's cat"!]

At the same time, several new messages were pushed to the top.

[One kills a hundred! Who else can do this at this level?!]

These are not the only posts; they have various titles, but the content all conveys the same message:

In the "Battle Royale" instance, approximately three hundred players compete in a dense forest on a small island.

One point is awarded for each kill, and the score is displayed above the player's head.

Meanwhile, the seemingly unknown female player, "Schrödinger's Cat," scored 100 points, creating a significant gap with the second-place player's 29 points.

It is speculated that her true strength is close to that of top players, and she can be classified in the same tier as the un-promoted Foot Winner.

After completing this dungeon, she had only just reached level 15.

As a result, old grievances about Ji Yi were brought up again.

People reached a consensus.

This "Ji Yi" is definitely a gigolo!

She carried her through the Magic Tower dungeon, and she also made the Clown dungeon a chicken dinner.

No wonder he couldn't add anyone as a friend; he knows how to save face! He's afraid of being exposed!
The chaotic and unpleasant forum was shut down.

Hsieh Chia-yi set friend requests to be disabled to avoid receiving over two hundred requests at once, which would be too much for her to handle.

Received the reward.

In the friends list, Ji Yi is still in the dungeon.

It's been a while, so much so that the inexplicable anger in my heart has gradually subsided.

Going back to reality.

It's midnight now.

After teasing the little white dog for a while, I felt much more relaxed by its funny antics.

I lay in bed and started looking at my phone.

Little White used its claws to hook onto the bed sheet and climbed onto the bed as well.

Then we started kneading the milk.

At the same time, it emitted a whooshing engine sound.

Xie Jiayi smiled with satisfaction and stroked the kitten in her arms.

It's 4 a.m. now. If I go to sleep now, I probably won't wake up until noon tomorrow.

I hope that when I wake up tomorrow, I'll see a message from some annoying guy.

noon the next day.

Still no news.

Hsieh Chia-yi quickly finished her lunch and then went back to the game space.

The message remained unread, and Ji Yi's "In the Instance" status seemed to be continuously active.

Sigh. I don't want to think about it anymore, I'm not going to watch it.

Let's do another dungeon run.

[Entering the instance]

[Points available: 5]

After receiving the reward.

"What kind of dungeon is it? Almost ten days have passed in the game already!"

Xie Jiayi muttered to herself, her anxiety long gone, replaced by an increasingly intense unease.

"Little Yangyang, big brother is coming to kiss you~"

Ji Yi pulled Yangyang into his arms and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Oh dear~ I'm cooking, don't touch me like that."

Yangyang blushed and didn't turn her head away until the ribs were stewed.

"Now we can kiss, on the lips."

"it is good."

Ji Yi gave Yang Yang a quick kiss on the lips.

The latter huddled up shyly.

Ji Yi: "Come on, let's go play on the bed."

Yangyang's face turned bright red in an instant.

Ji Yi: "Why does your aunt's menstrual blood come from her face?"

Yangyang immediately waved her little pink fist: "You're so naughty, Yiyi! You're so naughty, Yiyi!"

"Alright, enough joking around. Come on! Come inside with me, I'll introduce you to someone."

"Who?"

“Yun Chang, the one you see every morning.”

"You naughty Yiyi! I'm not going!"

Ji Yi's expression immediately turned serious: "Yangyang, do you love me? Shouldn't loving someone mean doing everything for them? You wouldn't even dare to eat the shit of the person you love, how can you say you love him?"

Yangyang: "?"

Before she could react, Ji Yi scooped her up in a princess carry.

Then he went straight to his room.

With a thud, Ji Yi threw Yangyang onto the bed, leaned over her, and grabbed her wrists with both hands.

"Waaah, Yiyi bullied me!"

Ji Yi: "But aren't we a couple? You're my lover, shouldn't we do things that couples do? Or do you not love me at all?"

Yangyang's eyes instantly reddened:
"That's not true, I didn't refuse."

Tears streamed down her face.

Ji Yi seemed to have become accustomed to crying:

"Why is that? Tell me."

Yangyang pouted, her eyes brimming with tears, and choked back sobs:

I'll be turning 20 in a month.

"I hope to give myself to Yiyi on my twentieth birthday. Because I want the best twentieth birthday gift. I have no objections."

Ji Yi released her wrist.

Snap, snap, snap, snap!

He slapped himself six times in a row: "I deserve to die."

He got up and helped Yangyang sit up:

"I'm sorry, did I hurt Yangyang?"

Ji Yi rubbed her slender, red wrist.

Yangyang had stopped crying and leaned her head on Ji Yi's shoulder.
"Yiyi, if you really want to do it now, Yangyang can do it. You don't have to wait for Yangyang's birthday. As long as Yiyi loves Yangyang, that's enough."

"No, let's wait until your birthday."

Ji Yi stroked her head: "Good girl, don't cry. I'll never bully you again."

"Hmm~"

Seemingly exhausted from crying, Yangyang slid down Ji Yi's shoulder and rested her head on Ji Yi's lap, tears still glistening in the corners of her eyes.

She fell asleep quickly.

Ji Yi's brows furrowed again, as was her habit.

It's been ten days.

He tried everything he could, but no matter what he did, he couldn't persuade Yangyang to let him leave.

Threats or feigning helplessness—no method will succeed.

Perhaps the condition for passing the level is to increase the level of affection, or for the actual relationship to progress to a certain stage.

So in the days that followed, he tried his best to please Yangyang, even getting himself emotionally involved.

Yes, he's learning what love is.

Having no experience in love, Ji Yi is terrible at it, but he is still trying to understand Yang Yang's love.

But the results don't seem to be very good.

With the thought that "reaching base might be the real condition for success," Ji Yi gave it a try. But now it seems there's no need to try again.

This path is most likely wrong.

"Can't get through?"

No wonder it was a nightmare-level dungeon even though there was no life-or-death crisis.

He lost.

He could only admit that he had lost, lost completely.

Even with his powerful "bug-spotting eye," he couldn't find any loopholes to exploit.

He lost this instance.

After lunch, Ji Yi and Yang Yang spent another happy afternoon playing games and singing together.

After what happened that morning, Yangyang became bolder. She would kiss Jiyi when he wasn't being ambushed, and if she accidentally exposed herself, she would just blush and no longer punch Jiyi with her fists or hide in her room in shame and anger.

It was another pleasant day.

That night.

Ji Yi walked to the kitchen and picked up a sharp knife.

"At this point, this is the only way we can go, losing three levels is better than being stuck in the dungeon forever."

As he spoke, he turned the dagger inward.

Is the heart on the left or right side?

A sharp knife was pressed against his chest.

"The heart is on the left side, the heart is on the left side."

"right?"

The dagger veered slightly to the right.

They say love makes you lose your mind, and it really does work like a drug.

Tsk, after suppressing myself for more than ten days, I can't even have some fun?
