"Maybe I'm just lucky …?"
Lin Sanjiu forced herself to stand up straight as the voice rang in her mind.
Her current understanding of Ji Shanqing was barely enough for her to activate her [Consciousness Mimicry].
The time they spent together was the basis of her analysis of her grand prize. However, what her grand prize showed to her wasn't his whole self. Now, she could clearly feel that her [Consciousness Mimicry] would shut down if she had the slightest doubt. This meant that her understanding of her grand prize was still as black as a sheet of paper.
Next, she had to avoid any distractions so that she wouldn't have any doubts about her grand prize.
In other words —
Lin Sanjiu glanced at the communication device not far away from her and dashed toward it.
The corpse twisted its body abruptly. Lin Sanjiu could almost hear the crack of its spine. Then, it lowered its head and swayed its limbs. Surprisingly, it also approached the communication device.
The corpse seemed to have gained some ability to think. It had already sensed the relationship between Lin Sanjiu and the communication device. As long as it waited beside the communication device, it knew that it would have a chance to exact its revenge on Lin Sanjiu.
From their positions, the corpse was much closer to the communication device than Lin Sanjiu was. Lin Sanjiu snorted and immediately stopped. Enduring the pain in her chest, she retreated a few steps in the opposite direction and stared at the corpse as she approached the communication device.
The distorted, grayish-white corpse twisted and turned a few times in the night as if it was waiting for Lin Sanjiu to approach it. Blue light spots flickered around its feet, dyeing the skin of its calves in color.
"The first step is to retrieve the communication device," Lin Sanjiu whispered to herself. Lin Sanjiu whispered to herself. Ji Shanqing's unique and calm way of thinking had already started to work in her mind. "The second step is to find the last part of the secret chamber in this pocket dimension."
"The last part?" Mrs. Manas was shocked by her mimicry, "Then, the part before that …"
"It has been solved."
"Oh? Huh? What? How did you solve it? When did it happen? "
With the [Consciousness Mimicry], Lin Sanjiu could think like another person. Therefore, even Mrs. Manas couldn't detect her thoughts.
"Just now." Lin Sanjiu shrugged. "To put it bluntly, this so-called 'secret chamber' is just a ploy that an ordinary person came up with to protect himself. Not every criminal is a criminal genius, so this trick is very simple. As long as you think about it from a different angle, you can solve the case immediately. "
However, now was not the time to explain this in detail.
Lin Sanjiu's current situation was almost the same as the last time. She had to get "that" communication device, but the corpse was blocking her way.
The corpse seemed to have sensed her gaze as it wobbled around the communication device. Amidst the rustling sound, the creature twisted its neck horizontally, as if it was peering at her from below. Lin Sanjiu wasn't sure because she could only see the back of the creature's head, which was covered in blood and dirt.
Then, the corpse turned away from the communicator and walked toward her.
"It's a chance!" Mrs. Manas whispered. At the same time, Ryuji, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation in the dungeon, couldn't help but sit up straight.
"No."
Every time the corpse moved forward by a meter, Lin Sanjiu would move backward by a meter. She did not move more or less. Was this how Ji Shanqing lived? With just one look, all the things that he thought he had hidden would surface one by one …
"It deliberately turned around and left an empty space in front of the communication device. Once I rush in that direction … "Lin Sanjiu wanted to laugh because her grand prize always had a slight smile on his face when he saw through others. "That rotten gas will come out from its head, which hasn't recovered after twisting it."
"Really? It's in the same direction …" Mrs. Manas mumbled in surprise. "What about the communication device?"
"I have an idea."
Moreover, the idea she came up with while imitating Ji Shanqing was very efficient. It would not put her in any danger.
When the [Penguin Books for Children] appeared in Lin Sanjiu's hand, no one knew what she was going to do. It was not until the giant axe flew out of her hand and pierced through the night sky that she heard Ryuji gasp. The axe brushed past the corpse and smashed the communication device into the wall, shattering it into pieces.
At that moment, even the corpse was dumbfounded.
"Why … Why …" While Lin Sanjiu dashed into the depths of the storage unit, Mrs. Manas stammered, "Why … Didn't you want it?"
"I only wanted to turn it into a card. Even though it's a waste to destroy a communication device, destroying it is the best way to ensure my safety. "
"Wait, destroy it? I don't understand. "
"I told you from the beginning that my understanding of Ji Shanqing cannot be shaken or wavered, so I can't be disturbed." Lin Sanjiu's voice was clear and light. If it weren't for the different timbre, it would sound exactly like her grand prize. "… I can't leave the communicator outside. If he tries to call me again, that in itself will be the biggest distraction."
Mrs. Manas was so stunned that she didn't know what to say. After a while, when Lin Sanjiu suddenly crouched down to check the ground, Mrs. Manas said, "Then, are you not going to think about the grand prize? If he can't contact you … "
"He can wait for me. At most, he will only worry for a few minutes. That won't kill a person, let alone the grand prize." Lin Sanjiu swept away the debris around her with her pointer. While she was paying attention to the movements behind her, she replied, "I will apologize to him after I get out of this pocket dimension."
Mrs. Manas was silent for a while. Suddenly, she sighed.
"I understand," she sounded a little sad, "I almost didn't realize that you are thinking like Ji Shanqing."
In his mind, the most important thing was that nothing should happen to his sister. Hence, Lin Sanjiu's actions were all based on this principle, which was to protect herself.
Ironically, it was because of the grand prize's attitude that Lin Sanjiu was the most important thing to him that his sister didn't take his concern into consideration.
Just when Mrs. Manas was lost in her thoughts, Lin Sanjiu suddenly shouted, "I found it!" Then, she pulled out a metal plate from under a shelf.
