I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 459

Chapter 459: Chapter 459 The Cat Left
The cat, it first went to Shen Mo!

Bai Youwei’s heart lifted instantly, telling those on the other end, “Avoid a head-on conflict, find a place to hide!… Yu Yaqing, can you hear me? Get out of the theater now and head to the Ghost Ship to rendezvous with Tan Xiao!”

“Understood!” Yu Yaqing’s response was short and swift, followed by silence.

Shen Fei asked Bai Youwei, “Why send her to the Ghost Ship?”

Why not let Yu Yaqing meet Shen Mo at the Crystal Tower?

Wouldn’t the two of them together be more secure in dealing with the puppet cat?

If this were earlier, he would probably have challenged Bai Youwei instantly, but now, he instinctively felt that Bai Youwei must have a reason.

“When I get a chance, I’ll have to buy you a copy of ‘One Hundred Thousand Whys’,” Bai Youwei, looking at the map, coldly explained, “Sending Yu Yaqing back to the Ghost Ship is because I can’t let Mary think she’s been discovered. I have to make Mary think that our real target is the Ghost Ship, not the Crystal Tower.”

She paused for a moment, lifted her head to look directly at Shen Fei, and asked, “Imagine, if you were Mary, what would you do now? Go to the Ghost Ship, or go to the Crystal Tower?”

Shen Fei thought seriously, “If I were Mary…”

If he were Mary…

Weak, helpless, pitiful Mary who could only protect herself by controlling the dolls.

Faced with a group of players determined to win, Mary cautiously hid in the Crystal Tower, letting the doll and puppet cat guard near the Ghost Ship, misleading players into thinking she was on the Ghost Ship.

But what Mary didn’t anticipate was that someone would suddenly break into the Crystal Tower.

In a panic, Mary called the doll and cat over, wanting to kill or drive away the intruder, for fear of exposing her location.

However, the intruder hid, and meanwhile, two players arrived one after another at the Ghost Ship.

What was she to do? If she ignored the Ghost Ship, the players would definitely suspect that Mary wasn’t there!

Therefore, even if only for appearance’s sake, Mary had to send the doll and puppet cat to the Ghost Ship!

Understanding all this, Shen Fei became perplexed, muttering to himself, “When players appear in both the theater and the Crystal Tower, the first place Mary attacks is where she is most nervous and worried about exposure!”

“The cat is here!” There’s a sudden loud bang from the transceiver, accompanied by Yu Yaqing’s shout!

Bai Youwei responded quickly, “Shen Mo! Keep searching the Crystal Tower! As soon as the cat leaves the Ghost Ship, make your way from the Crystal Tower to the Treasure Bay Theater! Then retreat from the theater to the Ghost Ship! We must make Mary believe that our target is the Ghost Ship! The Ghost Ship!”

Turbulent sounds got louder from the transceiver!

No one knew what was happening, followed by several shouts in a row!

Bai Youwei became flustered and desperate, gripping the transceiver, persistently asking, “What happened?! What’s the situation over there?!”

There’s more chaos from the transceiver!

After a while, Yu Yaqing, panting, answered, “No problem…it’s Tan Xiao, Tan Xiao just fell into the lake, he’s alright, but his transceiver is broken.”

Pausing for a moment, she added, “The cat has left.”

The puppet cat headed towards the Crystal Tower.

Shen Fei looked at Bai Youwei, “Mary must be in the Crystal Tower! Otherwise, there’s no reason for the doll and puppet cat to let Tan Xiao and Yu Yaqing off the hook! But the Crystal Tower has seven floors. Even if we know Mary is inside, it will take some time to find her! What do we do now?”

He was burning with impatience, his brain hard at work:

“Should we hide and wait until daylight? But if we hide, won’t Mary take the chance to slip off somewhere else while we can’t see?”

Or… should we stay nearby and keep our eyes on that puppet cat?

…No, that won’t work, it’s been running around all night, wanting to wipe us all out! It won’t let us live peacefully until the day comes! This kind of chase won’t last long before everyone is too exhausted to carry on!”
