With only photos to go by, Bo Jingmo couldn't personally detect anything unusual about this "Limu" figure.
Yu Li set down her phone and reached out to grasp his wrist, signaling him not to worry.
Then she curved her eyes and called out gently, "Film Set System? I think we should have a talk."
The Film Set System hiding in the shadows: [...]
It knew it couldn't avoid this.
So it emerged to explain: [That Limu situation... is complicated. She's one of your avatars.]
When that incident caused such an uproar, how could the Heavenly Dao let the Film Set System off so easily?
It recognized Yu Li's formidable strength and, considering the villain's excessive power, approached the Film Set System to demand fragments of Yu Li's memories.
The plan was to use these fragments to help the protagonist escape danger if things spiraled out of control later.
You wanted to use them, and now look - the original has returned.
It continued: [I've concealed your identity. The Heavenly Dao still doesn't know you're Limu. This time it probably wants your avatar to eliminate you.]
Yu Li's eyes glimmered slightly: "Does that Limu also have Black Moon?"
[Yes... she's an exact copy of you - whatever you have, she has too. But being just a copy, her Black Moon lacks offensive capabilities.]
Like an exquisitely crafted decoration, serving only to borrow authority by flaunting borrowed prestige.
Hearing this, Yu Li's interest deepened.
Jiang Xi, your wish has come true.
But speaking of which...
She glanced leisurely at the Film Set System: "The Heavenly Dao took half, so the other half remains with you?"
The system stayed silent.
Then it hurriedly explained, [But I haven't used it for anything bad! I made your memories into a dungeon.]
At this, Yu Li paused slightly, lifting her eyelids to make an ambiguous sound:
"A dungeon made from my memories?"
[You are a volunteer who signed up for orphanage service activities and willingly came to help.]
[Upon arriving, you notice the children here are all strange - silent, avoiding play, spending all day drawing.]
[You comfort yourself that this might just be from lack of care.]
[The other workers here are abnormally quiet too, never responding when you speak to them.]
[More terrifying, you often sense someone standing by your bed while you sleep, or spying on you from behind, only for them to pretend nothing happened when you suddenly turn around.]
[These bizarre incidents keep your nerves on edge, leaving you clueless what to do.]
[Until one day, among the children, you suddenly spot your younger self...]
[Welcome players to the dungeon - Orphanage.]
[Your mission: Quickly find your younger self and successfully leave the orphanage in the end.]
[Following senior players' suggestions, this dungeon launches a new mode with fully open live broadcasts. All players are invited to watch. The system has sent invitation links - click 'Confirm' to immediately enter the stream.]
[Friendly reminder: This dungeon features special guest player - Limu.]
Instantly, all available players received this message.
This was completely unprecedented, inevitably stirring some novelty.
More importantly, they saw that final name - Limu.
PEACE was actually telling the truth - Limu had really returned.
Xin Hao also received this invitation. Staring at the 'Confirm' button before him, complex emotions flashed through his eyes.
After a long silence, he slowly pressed it.
Meanwhile, Xing Yuan in his sleep suddenly furrowed his brows tightly.
A familiar system voice sounded in his ears:
[Someone has forcibly teamed up with you. You will enter the dungeon when countdown ends.]
[Welcome player Xing Yuan to the dungeon - Orphanage.]
As the countdown ended, Xing Yuan's eyes snapped open to find himself in an unfamiliar place.
Warm sunlight poured from the clear sky, yet he felt no warmth - only a chill rising from his feet.
Someone had actually bound him into a dungeon?
But he'd never teamed up before - how could this happen?
Just then, a familiar female voice came from behind.
"Uncle Yuan? You're in here too?"
In that instant, Xing Yuan's heart sank heavily as he turned with a dark expression.
Sure enough - Jiang Xi.
He couldn't help grinding his teeth.
Now he understood exactly what was happening.
The culprit was glaringly obvious. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NovєlFіre.net
Jiang Xi's cautious voice sounded again: "Um, Brother Yuan... is that woman over there... Limu?"
Following her gaze, he saw a woman standing quietly by the entrance.
She was looking up at the orphanage sign, her graceful silhouette framed by flowing black hair, the red vest accentuating her fair skin.
Hearing them, she turned slightly - the teardrop mole at the corner of her eye precisely where light met shadow, fox-like eyes lifting lazily, their indifferent gaze making Xing Yuan's heart skip.
Why... did Yu Li come to mind first?
Suppressing this odd feeling, he lowered his head to adjust his vest, answering: "Yes, that's Limu. She's here to assist us."
This was the tool the Heavenly Dao sent to help him kill Yu Li.
How could she have any connection to Yu Li?
Lost in these thoughts, he completely missed Jiang Xi's complicated look beside him.
Hesitantly studying the woman ahead, Jiang Xi's pupils contracted when their eyes met, instinctively looking away while clenching her fists.
So her previous suspicions were all wrong?
Yu Li wasn't Limu after all?
After some thought, she stepped forward toward the woman.
The woman glanced at her before looking back up at the sign.
Jiang Xi couldn't help asking curiously: "What are you looking at?"
Up close, she realized the woman's features were flawlessly beautiful - curled lashes like butterflies, straight nose, full red lips.
Only those eyes remained still as stagnant water.
Like... a beautiful doll without a soul.
Hearing the question, the woman tilted her head slightly, scanning Jiang Xi's face before looking away indifferently: "The sign."
Jiang Xi studied it but found nothing unusual: "What's special about it?"
The woman blinked softly: "This place... feels familiar."
Yet her memories contained no such location.
Where did this sense of familiarity come from?
Just as Jiang Xi opened her mouth to speak, a playful female voice suddenly sounded by her ear:
"Ah... so this is Limu?"
"Truly... I've heard so much about you."
