About to escape, Zhou Fei was very excited too.
But Wen Xishu was not excited at all.
Deceit Tower was merely the Land of Obsession, just a... pretext. What he truly needed to do was return to the Desire Tower and get these three people out.
There were all kinds of bizarre rules here, but there were none in the Desire Tower. In fact, without these rules, it might be even more difficult for these three to survive in the Desire Tower.
In fact, the Desire Tower might not even allow for the same kind of bug exploitation as the Deceit Tower, enabling them to directly reach the Fifth Stage.
Of course, Wen Xishu still had to do it.
Even getting an invitation letter would be good enough.
The people in white coats ended a feast and began to return one by one.
Wen Xishu said:
"Next, I'll switch to our third ally. Chris might be a bit confused, you imitate my tone and tell him to hide here. I probably need a few minutes."
Zhou Fei nodded.
They were currently stuck in a blind spot of the crowd's sight. If at this moment a Good People didn't follow the usual route...
Then they would definitely be seen at once.
Luckily, the Good People moved in neat formations.
Wen Xishu switched to Britney's side.
Chris was in a daze, and Zhou Fei gently patted Chris's shoulder, gesturing a shushing motion.
Chris nodded, making a gesture that he understood.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the Hero is a frontline combatant, but in terms of infiltration, Chris has been trained. When he lay low, there wasn't even a hint of his presence.
...
...
From Britney's perspective, many people in white coats in the cafeteria were still enjoying their food. A few quick eaters had returned already.
The majority were still leisurely eating, seemingly without any intention to move. Only two people in white coats got up to leave.
Undoubtedly, once these people in white coats returned to their posts, they would immediately find Zhou Fei and the others missing. In this race against time, Wen Xishu didn't instruct Britney to draw any more fire.
Instead, he started to switch back and forth.
By now, Britney had already won over all the Good People.
But this also led to the Great Kind Man, who coveted Britney... most likely becoming even more eager to possess or even destroy Britney.
After controlling Britney to return to her room, Wen Xishu immediately took out paper and pen.
After all, it was normal to need to memorize rules of conduct for taming humans, so having paper and pen in the room was expected.
Wen Xishu wrote this on the paper:
"Do you remember the kid who told you the truth, Britney."
After writing this line, Wen Xishu switched to Chris.
"Let's go, I'm Wen Xishu."
At this time, with no one in white coats around, Wen Xishu began to control Chris.
Zhou Fei was surprised, this didn't even take a minute. Wen Xishu was back already. What did he do?
By this time, some people in white coats from the Moderate Illness Area had already returned to their posts and started checking for problems.
Wen Xishu quickly led Zhou Fei through the border zone.
The border zone had no sentries, because in the view of the Good People, no one would be foolish enough to want to run from the Moderate Illness Area to the Mild Illness Area; after all—the Mild Illness Area was full of Good People.
The border zone was a straight path, where encountering any Good People meant immediate discovery, so hiding became a matter of urgency.
Of course, if they could eliminate the Good People before they shared their senses, a state of concealment might be prolonged for a while.
Wen Xishu and Zhou Fei indeed ran into two people in white coats.
But this was within Wen Xishu's expectation, as he had noticed these two about to return to their posts through Britney's perspective not long ago.
No sooner said than done, Chris, controlled by Wen Xishu, sprang into action.
With a combination of extreme kicking sequences and Chris's robust physique, in the blink of an eye, the two people in white coats were subdued before they could react.
Zhou Fei exclaimed, "That skill is terrifying. Like something out of a martial arts novel."
Wen Xishu said nothing, only instructing:
"Change clothes."
"There are at most a few minutes before they realize that someone is missing in the Moderate and Severe Illness Areas. However, they will most likely not immediately suspect our third partner and will probably search the Severe and Moderate Illness Areas more thoroughly first."
Zhou Fei swiftly agreed with Wen Xishu's plan.
At this moment, Wen Xishu switched characters again, returning to Britney's side.
With Zhou Fei present, Chris naturally knew what to do.
...
...
When Britney saw the words she had written in the notebook, she was stunned.
Many memories began to emerge.
Indeed, Britney realized a crucial point; in the past, she lived within carefully constructed lies.
In fact, if not for a day when in the park, a child suddenly appeared next to Britney and told her some things—
Britney probably wouldn't have seen through everything so early on.
The records noted it like this.
"That child was not an actor arranged by us; he perhaps was a human child. We are still investigating which human family could be so unruly as to infiltrate the filming site."
"It's incredible, as that area was clearly under lockdown."
"But we cannot ascertain what was said on the park bench. A child, perhaps, is not worth heeding; however, this made the audience very dissatisfied because Britney did not follow their instructions to shoot in the amusement park but rather chatted with a child in the park."
Continuing to flip through the records reveals some oddities.
