Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

“Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap——”

“Teacher Cheng spoke so well.” Bai Youwei clapped with a smile. “Hey, you, have you decided what to choose now?”

The crew-cut man trembled.

The rabbit was standing right in front of him.

He cowered and stammered, “You’re right… We, we should unite. I… I choose to transfer my right to choose the question type, transfer it to… Player 3.”

The Proctor remained silent.

It had seen everything.

From the moment Bai Youwei discovered the underhanded dealings, to Yan Qingwen proposing the strategy for clearing the game, to Shen Mo threatening the players with a fruit knife, to Brother Fei’s defiant final struggle, and then Bai Youwei using the rabbit prop… and finally Cheng Wei’s impassioned speech…

One link after another.

Coercion and enticement.

The Proctor looked at the crew-cut man and asked in a hoarse voice, “Player, are you sure you want to transfer your right to choose? Once you transfer it, you will lose the advantage of choosing. Your current score is 1 point. If you answer another question incorrectly…”

“Hey~ Didn’t you say you would strictly adhere to the rules and host the game?” Bai Youwei interrupted it, her tone displeased. “What’s this now? Deliberately inducing the player to change his decision? Does this count as disrupting the game balance? It seems you Proctors all like to say one thing and do another! You still claim to be impartial, don’t you find that laughable?”

The Proctor was silent for a moment before replying, “I just hope that the player can carefully consider before making an important decision.”

“Cut the flowery words!” Bai Youwei mocked it unkindly. “Does choosing the question type count as an important decision? When Player 2 chose poetry just now, you didn’t give him a chance to go back on his word! You said the question type was locked! No, way, to, change! Do you have seven-second memory like someone with dementia? Have you already forgotten what happened just now?”

The Proctor fell silent again: “…”

Bai Youwei tilted her head, sneering at it. “Old thing, just honestly host your game. Don’t try any tricks. Out of these 20 people here, don’t even think about killing a single one~”

The old man in grey robes stood silently, the mask under the hood of his cloak concealing all his emotions.

Shen Mo frowned.

He still remembered that this guy could summon a hurricane. Even though he looked like a withered old man, he was definitely dangerous.

Would it attack Bai Youwei? …As a Proctor, could it attack players who hadn’t broken any rules?

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Everyone stared at the Proctor in the center of the room.

After a few more seconds, the old man in grey robes moved, slightly turning his body to face Tan Xiao:

“Player 3, please choose a question type.”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, then felt a complicated mix of hatred and love towards Bai Youwei.

Hate, because she was truly hateful! Love, because she could actually lead them out of here alive!

Tan Xiao, as usual, chose mathematics, her weakest subject.

The Proctor didn’t read the question immediately.

It remained silent for a long time before calmly reciting:

“Question 4: The playground is 100 meters long and 50 meters wide. What is the area of the playground in square meters?”

Tan Xiao exclaimed, “Wow, finally a challenging question! This is probably the limit of my math skills!”

The Proctor: “…”

Everyone: “…”

They suddenly felt a slight, subtle sympathy for the system.

Hmm…

…

The next spin, the pointer landed on Yan Qingwen.

The Proctor asked, “Player 7, will you also transfer your right to choose the question type?”

Everyone looked at Yan Qingwen.

Including the rabbit on the turntable.

The corner of Yan Qingwen’s mouth curled up. He turned to ask Bai Youwei, “As far as I know, most props are single-use. Are you sure it can still release lightning?”

Bai Youwei’s expression remained unchanged. “If I say it can, will you believe me? Why don’t you try it?”

Yan Qingwen didn’t want to try.

He smiled and looked at the Proctor. “I also transfer my right to choose the question type, transferring it to Player 3.”
