Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

In the first round of summer, they found a model pirate ship filled with gold, silver, and jewels. They treated the model as treasure and fed it to the anglerfish—

Now they were missing nails. Where could they find them?

Were they really going to be trapped here until they died?!

It turned out that the difficulty of the dollhouse wasn't about how obscure the clues were, or how hard the items were to find, but about how it made you unknowingly use up the answers for the next season in advance!

Everyone's faces were ashen. No one spoke, nor did they know what to say.

They had driven themselves into a dead end!

Bai Youwei bit her lip and tugged on Shen Mo's hand. "Carry me."

Shen Mo looked at her.

She closed her eyes, as if making a difficult decision, and said reluctantly, "Take apart the wheelchair."

Everyone: "…"

The ball: "…"

What the f*ck!

The ball couldn't help but fly up!

"You actually brought a wheelchair into the game! This is unfair! This isn't fair!!!"

Li Li was ecstatic. "Hahahahaha! There's the wheelchair! How could we forget the wheelchair? Hahahahaha!!!"

Yan Qingwen, still somewhat gentlemanly, understood the importance of the wheelchair to Bai Youwei and said, "If we can get out of the game, we'll help you find a similar wheelchair when we search for supplies."

Bai Youwei pursed her lips, not saying anything, just silently tugging on Shen Mo.

Shen Mo picked her up and gently patted her back, as if coaxing a child.

She mumbled against his shoulder, "My wheelchair is imported from Germany. It's very expensive."

Shen Mo patted her gently. "Mm."

She continued, "This model has long been discontinued. I can't find it anymore."

Shen Mo continued patting her. "Mm."

She still felt uncomfortable. "I've been sitting in it for years, never leaving it except for sleep…"

Shen Mo hummed in agreement and said, "You'll have to leave it eventually."

Bai Youwei froze and looked up at him.

There was a faint smile on Shen Mo's lips.

Bai Youwei blinked, suddenly realizing that when she tripped Xiao Xin earlier, it might… probably… perhaps… well, Shen Mo had seen it.

"Can you stand now?" Shen Mo looked at her with a smile.

Bai Youwei was silent for two seconds, then curled up in his arms, looking weak. "Oh, I'm not feeling well…"

Shen Mo smiled and continued to hold her.

While the two were whispering, Yan Qingwen and Li Li quickly dismantled the wheelchair, counting the number of nails as they went.

One, two…

Four, five…

Ten…

Sixteen…

…

Adding the 12 nails they had taken from the music box, they ended up with a total of 38 nails.

38.

That was precisely the number of nails they had estimated to be missing when Su Man was placing them earlier!

The crystal ball sat silently on the floor, not making a sound, only the snowflakes inside swirling madly! Like a blizzard raging within.

Yan Qingwen counted the number one last time, confirming that there were indeed 38, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He looked at everyone. "This time, there shouldn't be any problems."

Having gathered enough nails, everyone felt a sense of relief.

Li Li said, "Su Man's hand is injured. Let me do it this time."

"I'll do it," Bai Youwei suddenly straightened up from Shen Mo's arms, her tone carrying a childish emphasis. "My wheelchair!"

Everyone: "…"

Everyone knew that Bai Youwei's sudden initiative was because the person chosen to invite the guests in was likely related to the final reward distribution.

However… the nails were from her wheelchair, so it was perfectly reasonable for her to put them in.

Moreover, she had the puzzle pieces, giving her more leverage than them.

Yan Qingwen nodded. "In that case, everyone else, find a place to take cover and prepare to welcome the guests."
