This Character is Suspected of Cheating! [Unlimited Flow]

The broom’s abrupt turn perfectly demonstrated one thing—

He Yu had heard her.

He had simply ignored her before, pretending not to hear. But after hearing the words “intelligent computer” and “important clue,” he became interested and immediately turned back.

Someone had clearly come to save her...

Yet Qiong only wanted to grind her teeth.

The broom drew closer and closer. High-level flight equipment truly was different. It was practically a bolt of lightning, arriving before her in the blink of an eye.

Only then did Qiong see clearly that there were three people on the broom.

He Yu and Blue Star’s Bo Jingshan were above, while hanging underneath like a lump of charcoal...

Was that Wanrenzhan?

So he had suffered Love Planet’s disaster too...

But none of that was important.

Looking at the elegantly landing He Yu, Qiong’s face was full of grievance. “Why did you ignore me just now?!”

“Crack—”

Lightning struck down, making the already miserable Qiong look even more pitiful.

He Yu glanced at the dark cloud above her head and then at Jun’s corpse nearby. Understanding flashed in his eyes.

—One had died.

“Say something!” Qiong refused to let it go. Raising her hat brim, she glared at He Yu with wide eyes, wanting to hear what excuse he would come up with.

Pretend he hadn't heard?

Or ignore the promises he had once made?

He Yu looked at her and sighed softly. His brows furrowed slightly, and his expression carried pity for the world.

“Qiong, tell me, if other contestants saw you in this situation, what would they do? If it were you passing by, what would you do?”

Qiong froze.

What would other contestants do?

If they had already formed couples and secured their safety, they would naturally kill her without hesitation.

This was <Top Talent Show>.

Only one person survived.

Even she herself would not mind making a move. After all, one less competitor was always better.

He Yu naturally continued, “Wouldn't they kill you?”

Qiong subconsciously nodded.

He Yu shook his head helplessly.

“I discovered you, yet I didn't come down and kill you. Instead, I let you go. Doesn't that mean I've already given you enough face?”

In this competition, not killing someone was equivalent to sparing them.

He knew how easy it would be to kill her right now, but choosing to leave had been giving her a chance.

It truly was giving her face.

Qiong nodded again.

“Ah...”

He Yu sighed. His eyes filled with disappointment as he asked softly,

“Qiong, then why are you questioning me?”

It was only a soft question.

Yet the helplessness and disappointment in his eyes almost drowned the other person entirely.

Faint sadness and melancholy wrapped around him.

At this moment, he was simply a heartbroken man who had been misunderstood.

Why question him?

He had clearly shown kindness and spared her life, only to be questioned in return...

That was too unfair.

Qiong suddenly felt deeply ashamed.

He Yu had done nothing wrong.

On the contrary, not harming her and preserving her life was already a great favor.

No one else would have done such a thing.

And she...

Not only had she failed to appreciate He Yu, she had actually questioned him, glared at him, and doubted him.

The guilt in her eyes deepened. Her large eyes became filled with regret and self-reproach.

He Yu lowered his eyes slightly, looking infinitely sorrowful.

Qiong even took a step forward, intending to apologize.

Unfortunately, the heavenly lightning and acid rain stopped her.

Bo Jingshan: “......”

Better not to speak.

Wanrenzhan: “???”

Looking at Qiong, he seemed to be looking at an idiot.

He even let out a mocking snort.

“Heh.”

—She actually thought He Yu was a good person!

—Just a few words and she'd been fooled by He Yu. Too stupid. Truly too stupid.

[Barrage: “I can actually see Wanrenzhan despising Qiong for being stupid??”]

[Barrage: “Shut up, Wanrenzhan. You're the dumbest one here!!”]

[Barrage: “...Agreed. Every single time He Yu talks him around, and he still thinks he's clever. Amazing.”]

Wanrenzhan's “heh” actually proved useful.

It was like knocking Qiong awake.

She suddenly came back to her senses. Her eyes gradually cleared and narrowed.

“No, wait. If you wanted to spare me and didn't want to hurt me, then why did you turn back after hearing about the intelligent computer and clues?”

Wasn't it simply because he had no heart, only interests?

Hearing this, Wanrenzhan's eyes lit up.

Hahaha!

Qiong finally reacted!

Let's see how He Yu talks his way out of this now.

He waited excitedly.

But He Yu merely said calmly,

“Qiong, do we really have to continue talking about this? You don't seem to be out of danger yet.”

“......”

Right.

She had been so busy questioning He Yu that she had completely forgotten she was still under heavenly lightning!

Qiong hurriedly looked at the transparent film around her body.

Sure enough, after enduring several more strikes, cracks had already appeared. It would not last much longer. The attributes of this defensive equipment were not high.

She panicked.

Forget everything else.

She immediately looked at the three of them expectantly.

“Which one of you is single? Hurry and become a couple with me! I can't hold on anymore!”

Among the three, one had to be single!

And just now, Love Planet had announced—

【Please make your love choice within five minutes.】

He Yu's gaze fell on Jun's corpse, and he suddenly asked,

“Tell me, why did Jun choose to kill each other with you? Single people have no rights in this world. Since he could have formed a couple, why remain single?”

Qiong froze, confusion filling her eyes.

Right.

She had chosen “kill each other” for revenge.

But what about Jun?

Jun didn't know she would choose “kill each other.” He thought she would choose “love each other.” As long as he also chose “love each other,” they could [N O V E L I G H T] form a couple and survive the first day more easily.

Then why had he chosen to kill her?

Just to eliminate a competitor?

But...

He would still remain single.

If he encountered a murderous couple afterward, he'd be finished.

Why take such a risk?

Clearly, becoming a couple with Qiong, whom he regarded as harmless, was the best option.

Suddenly, Qiong's pupils shrank.

She looked at He Yu.

“He had a target!”

He Yu nodded approvingly.

“That's right. He already had a target. Or rather, he knew that after killing you, there would be an even better person to become a couple with.”

Therefore, he attacked Qiong without restraint.

Even after Qiong chose “kill each other,” he wasn't particularly flustered.

He was merely shocked and focused entirely on killing her.

Qiong's brows knitted together.

Beside her, Bo Jingshan and Wanrenzhan were both startled.

At that moment, He Yu raised a hand and pushed his rimless glasses.

His voice was calm.

“Come out. Although both parties have to discover each other to trigger the love choice, you know we can find you. Stop hiding.”

His expression was composed.

The trigger condition for “love choice” was—

A single person meeting another single person.

And “meeting” was rather mysterious.

Later, when He Yu encountered Eugene, the rules had been further clarified—

Both sides had to discover each other.

Meaning that only when two single people saw and recognized one another would the condition activate.

He Yu's words meant—

There was someone nearby whom they had not discovered.

The other three were shocked and immediately scanned their surroundings.

After speaking, He Yu simply remained silent.

The three exchanged looks.

Especially Bo Jingshan and Wanrenzhan.

They had come down from the sky.

Neither of them had seen anyone.

Not even Bo Jingshan's far-reaching vision had spotted anything.

The surroundings were flat.

There wasn't a single shadow.

Was there really someone?

Or had He Yu guessed wrong?

Just as they thought that, a figure emerged from underground.

A vortex appeared in the ground.

Stepping on the vortex, she leaped upward and landed on the surface, dust flying everywhere.

—Siya.

The person hiding underground was Siya!

Spreading her hands helplessly, Siya said,

“He Yu, you're frighteningly intelligent.”

She had intended to continue hiding.

Unfortunately, He Yu had said he had a way to find her.

And based on what she knew about He Yu...

He probably really did.

There was no point hiding anymore.

He Yu glanced at the vortex equipment she had just put away and raised an eyebrow slightly.

“That equipment is pretty good.”

Siya immediately stored it in her backpack and became vigilant.

—Holy shit, this guy isn't interested in my equipment, is he? Is he planning to kill me and steal it?

Siya genuinely suspected He Yu was capable of that.

Squinting her eyes, she stepped back warily.

He Yu withdrew his gaze.

“I was just praising it. Don't be nervous. Jun is dead, and you've lost your partner candidate. How about saving our suffering little girl?”

Siya: “......”

Qiong: “......”

Suffering little girl...

This little girl had just pierced a Federation expert through the heart with threads without blinking once.

Blood was still flowing all over the ground.

Siya pouted unhappily.

“He Yu, one of your group is single too. Team up with me instead. I don't want to become a couple with Qiong.”

—Those two were mortal enemies.

—Ever since the sea selection, they'd wanted to strangle each other.

Qiong also refused. Her brows were tightly furrowed.

“Jun wanted to kill me. She's probably involved too. I don't know why they still haven't become a couple, but they definitely planned to scheme me to death.”

Siya wanted her dead.

How could she become a couple with someone who wanted to kill her?

To put it bluntly, Qiong would rather become a couple with a dog than with Siya.

And clearly, Siya felt exactly the same.

“Then there's no helping it.”

He Yu shook his head and pointed at Qiong.

“You won't survive twenty-four hours.”

Qiong pursed her lips and clenched her fists.

Her choices were obvious—

Death.

Or become a couple with Siya.

Then He Yu pointed at Jun's corpse.

“Siya, Jun is dead. There are only nine people left in this battleground now. Eugene and Gedai have already become a couple...”

His voice remained calm.

He didn't even continue.

Siya's pupils contracted violently.

If she refused to pair with Qiong, and Qiong paired with one of He Yu's group...

Then only three people would remain—

Duan Yuchen.

Zhen Xing.

And herself.

Could she really still find a partner then?!

Her face alternated between green and red.

【5, 4...】

The countdown had begun.

Neither of them had any more time to think.

The two exchanged a glance, then both turned away in disgust.

Their originally charming voices were now angry and sharp.

“Love each other!”

“Love each other!”

【Congratulations to Qiong and Siya for becoming Love Planet lovers. You will receive Love Planet's blessing and obtain a Love Barrier!】

The barrage exploded.

“Holy shit! These two are as outrageous as Eugene and Gedai!”

“Hahaha! This isn't a couple, this is an enemy combination!”

“The three couples so far are all weirder than the last. I'm dying laughing!”

“Enemies becoming soulmates? I really want to see Qiong and Siya's reactions after gaining mutual understanding. Hahaha!”

“Am I the only one who feels like He Yu is deliberately pairing enemies together?”
