Chapter 584: Red, Yellow, Blue
“Ding! Welcome to the Doll Game!”
“The theme of this game is ‘Red, Yellow, Blue’, a non-conventional game, the win or lose scenario will be determined by the supervising Inspector–”
As the white light shone, the familiar voice echoed, and at least this time it didn’t repeat the part about turning into a doll again.
Before Bai Youwei could see what was in front of her, she first felt the chill under her feet, then realized, dazedly, that she was on a beach.
The icy sea water was washing over her feet.
Her socks and shoes soaked, Bai Youwei knitted her brows and rolled her wheelchair towards the shore.
She wouldn’t want to be drowned by the sea before figuring out the game.
Pushing the wheels sunk deep into the sand was challenging. When she finally moved a little further away from the sea, she saw a blond man not far away staring at her.
Bai Youwei looked back at him.
Oddly, the man’s eyeballs were red.
Seeing Bai Youwei getting closer, the blond man ran away in a panic.
When he turned to run, Bai Youwei saw a number printed on his back: 17.
The conspicuous red number stood out on his white shirt. It didn’t look like a decoration on clothes. Could this be a number in the game? Maybe each player has one?
With this nagging suspicion, Bai Youwei stopped and sought a secluded spot to check if she had a number as well.
When she turned her head, she saw a “11” printed near the shoulder on her right sleeve.
Seems that the each player’s number was placed at a different location.
Bai Youwei frowned in slight annoyance.
If the number was on her back, it would be easier to conceal, for her long hair and the chairback of her wheelchair would shield it from view.
But if the number was on her sleeve, it’d be rather hard to hide.
At that moment, there was a peal of bells in the distance.
It sounded like a call to gather people.
Perhaps these numbers weren’t significant, so she should first head towards the bells.
But if these numbers were important…
Her complacency at this moment might lead her into a predicament.
After much consideration, Bai Youwei decided to disregard the bells temporarily, cover the number first, and then deal with the rest.
She found a cinder block on the beach, hid behind it, took off her dress, and turned it inside out before putting it on again–
The inside-out dress looked odd, but only upon close inspection would the anomaly be evident.
Bai Youwei inspected it repeatedly to be certain that the number couldn’t be seen before she confidently emerged from behind the cinder block.
The bell was still tolling.
She leaned on the stone wall as she slowly moved back to her wheelchair, wheezed a breath, and then rolled her wheelchair in the direction of the bells…
This place appeared to be a man-made island. The deeper she went, the fewer plants there were, and the road became smoother.
There were no obstacles for Bai Youwei’s wheelchair and it moved faster and faster. As she approached the center, she found that it was almost a huge, incredibly flat square.
And in the middle of the square, many players had gathered.
The players were vigilantly watching each other. Some of them had red eyes, some had yellow eyes, while others had blue eyes.
Red, yellow, and blue.
Bai Youwei roughly understood why the blond man had run away.
He must have been scared by the color of her eyes, even to the extent of viewing her as a monster in the game.
There was also a small house in the middle of the square.
A sphere rolled out from the house–
This time it wasn’t Jin Qiu, nor was it a glass sphere, but a solid stone sphere.
“Hello everyone! I am the Inspector of this game, Welcome to the Doll Game!”
The sphere rolled happily on the ground, with three different colored eyes carved on its surface. As it rolled, those three colored eyes took turns appearing in everyone’s field of vision—red, yellow, and blue.
