It's not too much to say that a beauty is a little bit stronger

The bus slowly stopped and Xiao Huai got off with other passengers.

The entrance to the bottom of the sky appeared before his eyes. It was a passage leading to the sky.

To be precise, it is more like an extremely tall round chimney, and its red brick walls are particularly eye-catching under the reversed sky.

This place stood in the void, without any foundation to rely on, and the chimney-like buildings reached into the sky, connecting to the inverted earth above their heads.

After getting closer, Xiao Huai discovered that it was actually a huge elevator device leading to the upside-down dirt ground.

He glanced around and saw a long queue already forming at the entrance.

Some people in the crowd were chatting casually, holding various snacks in their hands.

However, some people's attitudes were less friendly.

Their faces were sinister, they held controlled knives tightly in their hands, and they looked alert and restless.

Jing Chenzhou quietly came to Xiao Huai after getting off the car. "You look new. Is this your first time at the bottom of the sky?"

Xiao Huai had long understood that strangers' approaches to him were never without reason.

Especially in this strange world, there may be hidden purposes or conspiracies behind any words.

Facing Jing Chenzhou's opening, if Xiao Huai acted like an honest man and told the truth, he would be a bit stupid.

He spoke slowly and lazily, his tone nonchalant yet tinged with sarcasm.

"Why do you think this is my first time there?" Xiao Huai casually glanced at the people in line.

Jing Chenzhou's lips curled up into a smile, "I'm sure this is your first time here."

There was a hint of teasing in his eyes, and he stared at Xiao Huai as if deliberately provoking him.

Xiao Huai raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to look at him. Although he did not respond immediately, there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes, as if silently asking: Why do you think so?

Jing Chenzhou chuckled softly, his voice low, "Your appearance is very impressive. I live at the bottom of the sky, but I have never seen you in the audience."

He walked a little closer to Xiao Huai, gently tapped his temple with his fingers, and finally said slowly: "There are two possibilities - either you are a contestant, or this is your first time here."

Jingchen tilted his head slightly, his smile deepening, "The first possibility has been directly ruled out by me."

His voice was full of teasing and certainty. "Because I interact with game players every day, but I haven't seen you sign up. So, you are not a player."

After hearing this, Xiao Huai's expression remained cold, without any embarrassment or guilt at being exposed.

He spoke frankly, his voice calm and indifferent: "So? What does it have to do with you whether this is my first time here? Are you trying to persuade me not to go up, or to persuade me to sign up?"

After all, Jing Chenzhou had mentioned on the bus, "Wouldn't it be more fun to sign up?"

Jing Chenzhou imagined Xiao Huai's deflated expression after being exposed, but reality did not develop in the direction he imagined, which made him even more satisfied.

"You're very interesting, so I naturally hope you can sign up."

Just as the two were talking, a clear voice suddenly came from a distance, interrupting their communication: "Mr. Jing, you're here. The production team has been waiting for you. Did everything go well on this business trip?"

The voice belonged to a young woman, with a hint of urgency and respect.

Hearing this, Xiao Huai glanced sideways, but found that Jing Chenzhou had no intention of responding at all.

He didn't even turn his head, his eyes always stayed on Xiao Huai.

He took a few steps closer, lowered his head, and whispered in Xiao Huai's ear, "If you are interested in participating in my show, I would be happy to arrange a special spot for you."

After saying that, Jing Chenzhou turned around and walked towards the woman.

The woman led Jing Chenzhou into a special passage, without having to queue, and walked straight to the elevator.

The elevator was made entirely of glass. If you didn't look closely, it would almost blend into the air, like a transparent entity.

Xiao Huai looked up and glanced at him lightly, then retracted his gaze, with no ripples in his heart.

Suddenly, a childish "Ouch" sounded. Xiao Huai looked down and saw that a child holding an ice cream accidentally bumped into his leg.

The ice cream splashed down instantly and stuck to Xiao Huai's trouser legs, leaving a large stain.

Xiao Huai frowned slightly, but didn't say much.

The child, however, was not afraid at all. He raised his head, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, "Hey."

There was a hint of aggression in her childish voice, "I spent twenty dollars on this ice cream. How are you going to compensate me?"

Before Xiao Huai could respond, he saw the child pull out a small knife from his pocket. The sharp blade swayed slightly in the air, and he actually looked like he was going to attack.

"How about this." The child raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a malicious smile, "Would you like me to see the blood?"

Xiao Huai's eyes turned slightly cold, and just as he was about to take action, suddenly a hand lifted the child up.

She was a woman with a very kind face, slender wrists but steady and powerful movements.

"I'm sorry, my child is a little ignorant and has caused you trouble." The woman had a gentle smile on her face and spoke in an earnest tone, as if she was ashamed of the child's unreasonable behavior.

Seeing that Xiao Huai didn't answer, the woman lowered her head, scolded the child a few words, and left quickly.

Not long after, a child's scream suddenly came from nearby, and he subconsciously turned his head to look.

The woman who looked gentle and kind before now had blood on her hands, and the bright red liquid was dripping through her fingers.

The knife in her hand was still flashing with a cold light. It was the same one the child had taken out before.

And she still maintained that gentle smile on her face, as if nothing had happened.

When her eyes met Xiao Huai's, she still had that gentle smile on her face, but behind that smile, there was a creepy coldness.

Good and evil are reversed, and reality and illusion are difficult to distinguish.

Is this seemingly kind woman a beast in human form?

----

Xiao Huai followed the team and walked into the elevator.

There are no buttons or floor signs in the elevator, but it is covered entirely by mirrors, extending the entire space infinitely. The endless mirrors reflect people's figures.

The elevator was very large and could accommodate two hundred people. A group of people rushed in and immediately filled the entire elevator.

The mirror reflects everyone's figures, distorting and overlapping them.

For a moment, everyone seemed to have lost themselves in the endless mirrored space.

Whenever someone moves, hundreds of reflections follow suit, in unison, yet with an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

When they entered the elevator, the originally noisy crowd instantly fell into an unusual silence.

No one talked anymore, and all sounds seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier, with only the slight sound of breathing echoing in the silence.

The elevator started slowly without any vibration. The angles of all the figures in the mirror kept changing as the elevator rose. Everyone's faces were intertwined in the mirror and even began to appear blurry.

In this oppressive and eerie silence, someone suddenly whispered, "What game will this be? Can I sign up?"
