Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

A selection for all mankind?

The Chosen One?

… …And changing the world???

Tan Xiao was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Houzi. He didn't expect anyone to be a bigger dreamer than him.

"Don't be impulsive. Don't jump to conclusions before you've thoroughly investigated anything," Cheng Teacher advised slowly. "Even if there really is a world-changing selection, it should be a comprehensive assessment of morality, intelligence, and physical fitness. There should be separate exams for liberal arts and sciences, with extra points for students with special talents. That's scientific…"

The smile on Houzi's face cooled down, and he gave Cheng Weicai a look that said, "Shut up, you don't understand anything at all."

He stared at the burning fire and muttered to himself, "This world is rotten. Some people are looked down upon and work from morning till night but still can't afford to eat. Some people don't have to do anything and have more money than they can spend. Why? Why are some people born rich and others born to suffer? Even God can't stand it anymore, so the game appeared… She's right, trash should be cleaned up! It's not our fault those people died, it's their own fault for being incompetent… He was eliminated by the game, I didn't kill him, I didn't. I am the winner, I received God's gift, I am the Chosen One… I am different from them…"

His voice trailed off into a murmur, as if he were possessed, repeating over and over, "I am the Chosen One, I am different from them… I am the Chosen One…"

Tan Xiao looked at Houzi with an indescribable expression, then turned to Shen Mo and Bai Youwei, pointing to his head, meaning: Is this guy crazy?

"Oh, right." Houzi said.

Tan Xiao was startled and quickly put his hand down.

Houzi smiled at Shen Mo and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank your sister. If she hadn't dragged it to the ninth round, even if we passed the game, we might not have had so many chances to use the mud reward."

Passing the ninth round, they were rewarded with 9 chances to use the mud. Behind this reward were lives, one after another.

But instead of blaming them, he tried his best to win over Shen Mo and Bai Youwei.

Shen Mo's expression was indifferent, and he didn't comment on the topic. He just said calmly, "The rain won't stop for a while, and the car can't go. Let's get something to eat first."

Houzi nodded and stood up. "There are pots and pans in the cafeteria. I'll go get some."

As he spoke, he ran out into the heavy rain.

The rest of the people in the room looked at his back, speechless for a moment.

Houzi's reaction was too abnormal. He seemed to regard himself as the protagonist who would save the world. After experiencing a test of fate, he became superior.

Shen Mo looked down at Bai Youwei and asked her, "Now that things have come to this, are you relieved?"

Bai Youwei lowered her head in silence, her long hair covering her cheeks, so no one could see her expression.

Tan Xiao looked at the two of them, feeling that the atmosphere was inexplicably strange. He asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with Houzi?"

No one answered.

Cheng Teacher shook his head slightly and sighed, "Alas…"

… …

It was afternoon, and the sky was as dark as night.

Tan Xiao found some food from the trunk, nothing more than instant noodles and sausages. They boiled a pot of water over the fire and had a hasty meal.

Bai Youwei ate very little, taking only two bites of instant noodles before putting them down. She looked listless and out of spirits.

She was in two completely different states inside and outside the game.

One was weak and silent; the other was unruly and rampant.

Shen Mo had never met such a girl or woman.

The female colleagues he met at work were all straightforward and generous, and the cousins in his relatives' families were also well-educated and reasonable. Only Bai Youwei made him feel prickly every time he came into contact with her.

It seemed that he had misunderstood her when he compared her to a little hedgehog at first.

A hedgehog was covered in thorns, but Bai Youwei was covered in knives!

And they were poisoned.
