(Quick Transmigration) Small Cannon Fodder Has Great Power

Gu Yunyun sat in a living room when a maid brought her a cup of hot chocolate milk. She thanked her softly.

A maid came to her today, saying that two young masters wanted to play with her, and led her over to wait.

Although Gemini usually wanders over by himself, even though he could use the main entrance, he prefers to throw pebbles at her window from downstairs to call her, saying it's a romantic way to avoid her old father (Vincent) and the girl's affair, which makes her both amused and exasperated, it's not uncommon for him to occasionally have a maid come and lead her to them.

The maid put down the cups and saucers and quietly left. Gu Yunyun picked up the hot chocolate, blew on it, and was about to drink it when she noticed a slightly unpleasant, strange smell amidst the sweet aroma of the chocolate.

She hesitated for a moment, then put down her cup, thinking that Frank and Pran would be here soon anyway, so she might as well wander around and wait.

She rose and explored the room she had never been to before, silently stepping onto the thick, soft carpet. Some decorative paintings hung on the walls, and as she turned around, she was astonished to discover that a huge, floor-length portrait of a beautiful woman was actually a door.

Gu Yunyun curiously pushed open the door gently. Her gaze shifted abruptly from the bright living room to the dimly lit room, and she felt a little disoriented. She fumbled for the light switch and turned it on.

Inside was a spacious bedroom. Gu Yunyun's first impression was, "What a huge bed..."

Upon closer inspection, I realized I was feeling unwell.

The room was also decorated with many paintings, but unlike the artistic works outside, the paintings inside were downright embarrassing. She quickly retreated, a sense of unease creeping into her heart. Those two boys, though mischievous, shouldn't have been involved in any illicit affairs; why would they have invited her to this strange place?

Thinking back to the strangely smelled drink, she decided it was best to leave the room as soon as possible. Just as Gu Yunyun reached the door, before her hand even touched the handle, the closed door slowly opened from the outside, revealing a man standing before her.

"...Lord Viscount?"

The Viscount strode in with an air of superiority, and Gu Yunyun had no choice but to retreat as he approached. Like a confident hunter, he stared at Gu Yunyun with a smug and mocking gaze, then slowly closed the door behind him and locked it with a click.

"Tsk, what a hassle..." Gu Yunyun complained silently to herself.

"It's a pity I didn't get to kiss her last time in the garden. Today, let's... get to know each other better." The Viscount said, reaching out to put his arm around Gu Yunyun's waist as if to lead her inside, but she dodged him.

"I have an appointment with the two young masters of your family today, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient for me to accompany them."

"Haha," the viscount wasn't annoyed that she dodged him; he thought it was just the prey's last struggle, and conquering an unwilling woman had its own kind of fun. "They're not home today because they've been arranged to attend a banquet."

He stared at Gu Yunyun as she approached, his expression a half-smile, as if to say, "What other excuses do you have?"

“The two young masters are not here, but your wife must still be in the manor.” The Viscountess had sent someone to summon Vincent before she arrived. “It wouldn’t be good if your wife found out.”

"You don't need to worry about that. To be honest, it was her idea to send you here." The Viscount's smile became even more sarcastic as he leisurely watched the little animal, who in his eyes was no match for him, struggling to find an excuse.

Gu Yunyun had nowhere left to retreat but the sofa behind her. The Viscount loosened his tie, unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, and his eyes became increasingly blatant. "Don't be afraid. Your brother will stay here with you. He will serve my wife, and you... will serve me."

As he reached out to touch her face, Gu Yunyun suddenly smiled. "Your Excellency," she said seductively, "would you like a drink?"

The viscount's hand froze in mid-air, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "Drink..."

"Yes, it's fine wine. You drank some to liven things up. Try it, isn't it intoxicating?" Gu Yunyun amplified her hallucinogenic abilities with her voice, reached for the problematic hot chocolate on the coffee table next to her, and handed it to the somewhat dazed man in front of her.

The viscount took the drink in a daze, mechanically raised his hand, and drank it down.

"How is it? Isn't it good wine?"

"Good wine, good wine..."

"You drank some alcohol and felt sleepy, so you went to sleep."

The viscount's pupils dilated slightly. Following Gu Yunyun's prompting, he blinked slowly and sleepily, walked to the long leather sofa, sat down, and then lay down on the sofa and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

That hot chocolate was probably laced with some kind of sleeping potion, which made the Viscount sleep even more soundly.

When the Viscount opened the door, Gu Yunyun noticed that there were servants guarding the outside. If she went out immediately now and they saw that the Viscount had fallen asleep so soon after entering, it might cause trouble. It would be better to sit here for a while and let them think that the Viscount had already gotten what he wanted and was fast asleep afterward.

If the Viscount wakes up later, even if he is unwilling to give up and tries to use the same trick again, she should have already left the Viscount's mansion by then.

Not only her, but Vincent was also being targeted by the Viscountess. Based on Gu Yunyun's understanding of him, although he was very good at sweet talk, he shouldn't do something like being a married woman's lover, and he should take her away with him.

Gu Yunyun was sitting on the single sofa next to her, lost in thought. She was so bored that she almost fell asleep when she was suddenly startled by a loud bang from the doorway.

"Young Master, please don't do this, the Master is in his room..."

"Go away!"

"This……"

Then came another loud slam of the door being kicked open, followed by a furious roar: "You fucking open the door for me!"

"But the master and madam ordered..."

"Enough talk! We'll take responsibility for whatever happens!"

"If you don't open the door, I'll kill you." Pulan's voice was unusually calm. "Do you think if I shot you right here and put a hole in your head, anyone would cry foul for you?"

Gu Yunyun stood up in surprise when she heard Frank and Pulan's voices. Didn't they say they were going out?

The servants outside the door, succumbing to the tyranny of the two young masters, opened the door tremblingly.

Frank shoved aside the servant at the door and rushed in.

He was visibly stunned to see Gu Yunyun standing unharmed opposite him. "...Are you alright?" Frank then noticed the Viscount lying on the sofa behind her a beat later. "What happened to the old man?"

"...He probably drank before coming in, and fell asleep shortly after he came in."

Pran, who followed Frank in, put away his silver pistol. "It's so good that you're alright." He waved to the servants behind him, "You can carry the master back to his room."

The servants quickly stepped forward and carefully carried the viscount away.

"I heard you went out today, what's up...?"

“Today we remembered to ask the housekeeper about the investigation,” Pulan paused, a hint of unease flashing across his face as he looked at Gu Yunyun’s matter without permission. “When we learned that Mother had actually inquired about this matter and had even specially sent us to attend this unnecessary banquet today, we felt something was amiss, so we rushed back to check on things.”

“We already know you and that man aren’t siblings.” Frank seemed agitated. “How could you be hanging out with him? Don’t you know he’s a dangerous fugitive?”

Gu Yunyun moved her lips, unsure how to respond.

"We met Lady Blaise at the banquet."

Upon hearing the name mentioned by Vincent's small team, Gu Yunyun's expression turned serious. "Did she say something?"

"Coveting the priceless paintings of the Blaise family and robbing goods from an underground auction is audacious enough, but what's even more shocking is a case from ten years ago—his full name is Vincent Griffin, the eldest son of the Duke of Griffin in the capital. The reason he was wanted was: raping and murdering a maid, killing his stepbrother, and... castrating his own father, and killing several of his pursuers while on the run."

Gu Yunyun was stunned. "Where did you find that out?"

"Duchess Blaise was once arranged by her family to go to the capital to meet the nobles of the capital. At that time, her father intended for her to marry into a powerful family to pave the way for her half-brother. However, she later inherited the family and the title, and the marriage fell through. The Duke of Griffin's current heir apparent—one of the Duke's illegitimate sons—was the one that Duchess Blaise had contacted back then."

Pulan took an old newspaper from his pocket and handed it to her. The newspaper was yellowed, but the black-and-white printed photo of young Vincent was still recognizable. Gu Yunyun took the newspaper with a heavy heart.

In the photo, teenage Vincent looks somewhat immature, but he already possesses the potential to be a heartthrob. However, he appears more spirited and dashing, his eyes like clear, golden lake reflecting the morning sun, unobstructed and without a trace of gloom. It's truly unimaginable how such a sunny and handsome young man could be the ruthless, rapist, and patricide-mongering madman they speak of.

"Dame Blaise has been investigating Vincent. She recalled meeting the heir of the Duke of Griffin's mansion once, who also had rare violet eyes and whose features were somewhat similar."

"Yunyun, leave Vincent and stay with us. We will protect you."

"...I believe Vincent isn't that kind of person. There must be some misunderstanding or hidden reason." Based on her understanding of him after spending a considerable amount of time together, and her trust that the system wouldn't choose a despicable and malicious task target, Gu Yunyun chose to believe Vincent.

"Don't be silly! Duchess Blaise won't let him go. Now that she knows he's the murderer who's been wanted for many years, she'll probably reopen the case and update the arrest warrant soon, and then they'll hunt him down across the country!"

"what?!"
