"I don't accept the puppet's invitation, but you can come." Gu Can said lightly, ignoring the clown puppet in front of him, and looked calmly at the last seat in the audience.

"Hehe, okay, I like pretty sisters the most too." The person who stood up was a girl with two ponytails, wearing a chocolate and green interwoven cake skirt, over-the-knee mesh silk skirt, white big-toed shoes, and exaggerated clown makeup on her face, especially her mouth, which seemed to be grinning all the way to the back of her ears.

He was less than 1.5 meters tall and very thin. He ran towards the stage where Gu Can was.

She stood in front of Gu Can, a sly look flashing in her eyes, then she bent down and extended her hand, making an invitation. Gu Can chuckled, put his hand on hers, and walked together to the huge circle of fire.

The air around them seemed to be twisted by the flames. The clown girl suddenly turned around and gave Gu Can a strange smile, then swung him hard and threw him towards the fire circle.

Gu Can, however, remained unhurried, flipping lightly in mid-air and landing steadily within the flames. A faint halo emanated from her body, insulating her from the heat of the flames. Seeing this, a flicker of surprise crossed Harley Quinn's eyes, and then her hands danced rapidly, countless colorful ribbons flying from her sleeves and wrapping around Gu Can like snakes.

Gu Can tapped her feet lightly, flitting between the ribbons like a dancing butterfly. With a flick of her finger, a ray of ice-blue light shot out, instantly freezing the nearby ribbons into icicles.

Harley Quinn, enraged, spun around, sending a gust of wind through the entire venue. Gu Can closed her eyes, muttering something, and as the wind approached her, it vanished. Harley Quinn's eyes widened in disbelief.

"You're so disappointing, with just this little ability." Gu Can slowly opened his eyes and looked at the Harley Quinn who seemed to be at her wit's end.

"Hehe, I just said I like beautiful sisters the most, hehe, hahaha." As she laughed, the figure of Harley Quinn became illusory, and strange laughter floated from all directions.

Knowing that Harley Quinn had a trick up her sleeve, she mobilized all her spiritual power, forming a protective shield to envelop herself. Suddenly, the surrounding scene changed drastically. The original circus scene disappeared, replaced by a series of iron cages covered with spikes, and many terrified people were imprisoned in the cages.

"Beautiful sister, if you don't want them to die, just be good and listen to me." Harley Quinn's voice echoed in the air.

"If you threaten me with innocent people, they must be human beings." As she spoke, a sword condensed in her hand and rushed towards the source of the sound.

Just as she was about to touch Harley Quinn's shadow, Gu Can found herself thrust into a mirror. The space within was small and oppressive, while Harley Quinn stood outside, grinning triumphantly. Gu Can calmed down, carefully observing the mirror, finding a weak spot and striking with all her might.

The mirror shattered, and she managed to escape. Taking advantage of Harley Quinn's moment of shock, Gu Can quickly approached and placed a talisman on her forehead. Harley Quinn was instantly immobilized. He then pulled out a strange cooking manual, but there was no reaction.

"Hehe, hahaha." The laughter sounded again, and it seemed to be getting closer. Gu Can slightly turned sideways to avoid the sneak attack from behind.

"I forgot, this is your territory." Gu Can chuckled, and the Eye of Delusion opened. The scene in front of him changed instantly. It returned to its old, dilapidated, gloomy and deserted appearance.

Then the scene changed again.

The little girl was brought to the circus by her parents. That day, she put on the new dress she had always dreamed of and tied her hair into her favorite ponytails. Everyone said she was a beautiful little princess. Her father held her on his shoulders to watch the show, and her mother carefully supported her beside him.

After the performance, she was left alone in the circus.

Because she was disobedient and wanted to go back to find her parents, she was locked in a dark basement with only a small window, just enough for her to reach out and bring in a steamed bun.

She was so hungry that she had to obey. Mom and Dad definitely didn't do this on purpose. She wanted to stay here and wait for Mom and Dad to pick her up. They would definitely come to pick her up, they would.

With this hope in mind, she trained and performed diligently. They all said she was the most talented, and many people came just for her. Even if she had to wear the most exaggerated makeup and had a high fever, she would insist on performing so that she could see her parents first.

As she grew older, over the past ten years, she became increasingly beautiful. The circus people and the audience's gazes on her made her increasingly uncomfortable. When the circus leader came to see her, she felt disgusted and angry, but he said he had news about her parents. She endured it, and the leader brought more and more people to see her at night.

In order to see her parents, she didn't dare to resist.

Until she heard it with her own ears, it turned out that her parents had taken money to sell her to the group leader. The group leader also took money to bring those people and make her do those disgusting things. Was she really that valuable?

Haha, hahaha, okay, okay, mom and dad don’t want her anymore, and she doesn’t want mom and dad anymore either.

That day, she changed into the new dress given by the leader, combed her hair into her favorite twin ponytails, put on no makeup on her face except a little lipstick, and knocked on the door of the leader's room.

The leader died and she took over the circus. The men came as promised and she received each of them with a smile. Then they died one after another. People searched and found that these men had all been to the circus before they died.

It was widely rumored that this was a curse from the circus's ringmaster, and no one had come to the circus since then. People were terrified when they mentioned the place, and gradually, the people living nearby moved away, leaving the circus increasingly dilapidated.

Occasionally, someone accidentally passed by and could hear strange laughter coming from inside.

"Sister, am I not being good? Didn't mom and dad say I was their treasure? Why don't they want me anymore?" The Joker Girl's voice suddenly turned into that of a little girl, so cautious and aggrieved.

"They didn't abandon you, and they have always been with you. When they saw you being bullied, they were sadder than you." Gu Can said.

"What did you say? They sold me out." Harley Quinn didn't believe it.

"It's in the basement of the captain's room. Your parents were killed by him and have been there ever since. Otherwise, do you think your poison is so effective? Even though they are in hell, they never gave up on saving you." After Gu Can finished speaking, Joker Girl was stunned for a moment, then turned and ran towards the old captain's room.

Gu Can watched her searching the room. He walked over and lifted the wooden board under the bed. Looking inside, it was pitch black. Harley Quinn looked at Gu Can.

"Go ahead, they miss you too."

"But I, I'm not clean anymore." Harley Quinn whispered.

"Then, do you still want to see me?" Gu Can asked.

After a long pause, Harley Quinn walked straight towards the dark secret room. There was the person she longed for, and she wanted to go there, to get an answer. She had waited too long. Even if they couldn't accept it, she would go.
