Chapter 173 Stars, Moon, and Sun (16)
"Little Yiyi, I've finally gotten in touch with you!"
The sound of a child crying could be heard, sounding like a lost child who had finally been reunited with their parents.
Ignoring the cerebellum's cries, Yi Yi silently braided her long hair into a plait.
The shape of the cerebellum was still somewhat blurry, with colorful flashes.
But what was said was still barely audible: "Xiao Yiyi, I'll send you back now. The signal is being interfered with and it's difficult to connect. It might be a little uncomfortable, so please bear with it."
Yi Yi reached out and handed the braided hair to Cerebellum.
The cerebellum looked completely bewildered.
Yi Yi gently tossed the braid and urged, "What are you standing there for! Hurry up and take the braid outside to tie it to the mechanism that opens the gate!"
Cerebellum: "Huh??"
Yi Yi felt that the cerebellum of this world was really a bit stupid, so she could only explain again: "Take my braid, go to the right side of the gate, tie it to a handle, and I will pull the handle down to open the iron gate."
To make matters worse, Yi Yi added, "Oh, is it because you don't have a physical form that you can't do it?"
The cerebellum immediately retorted, "How dare you talk like that! I can easily do this little thing!"
Then Yiyi watched as the pale blue screen transformed into a glowing chibi-style figure, who then flew outside the gate, clutching her braids.
Watching her cerebellum fly off, Yi Yi thought with amusement: Wow! It really is a little elf!
"Alright, Xiao Yiyi!" Xiao Nao called from outside.
Yi Yi instructed, "Remember to untie my braid after the switch is pulled down!"
After saying that, Yi Yi grabbed her braid and pulled it downwards at the right angle.
A clanging sound rang out, and the iron fence in front of them slowly rose.
Xiaonao untied Yiyi's braid as instructed.
Looking at Yi Yi, who was untying her braids, Xiao Nao finally remembered to ask for the specific reason: "By the way, Yi Yi, why did you make me do this?"
Yi Yi glanced at Xiao Nao with a strange look, and said matter-of-factly, "Open the door, how can we get out if we don't open the door?"
The chibi-style face, devoid of facial features, then adopted the "Cosmic Thinking Cat" expression and said, "But..."
A crackling sound accompanied by a wave of dizziness followed.
Judging from experience, it seems to be another signal failure.
But the next second, the cerebellum's voice rang out from inside the brain, completing the words it hadn't finished saying: "...We're about to be teleported back to your original body in this game!"
Before him stood a pair of striking, deep blue eyes against dark gray eye circles, their vertical pupils now narrowed to slits, staring intently at him.
Yi Yi moved slightly, feeling the heavy pressure on her limbs.
The current situation unequivocally demonstrates that he is being pinned down and restrained by Ai.
My shoulder felt cool, and when I glanced down, I realized I was still disheveled.
Yi Yi looked completely bewildered: What? What's going on? Yi Yi, why did you change your mind? Now you're planning to force yourself into loving someone you can't have?
Let's discuss this!
Before Yi Yi could speak, she saw Ai Yi's pupils dilate instantly.
Then, he, who was ostensibly the one who committed the violence, scrambled off Yi Yi.
Watching Ai's retreating figure as she scrambled down the opposite staircase using both hands and feet.
Yi Yi was still speechless and said, "This scene... looks familiar."
Yi Yi straightened her disheveled collar, sat up, and looked around at her surroundings.
When she looked up at the portrait above her head, Yi Yi realized that she was still inside the castle and that she hadn't moved from the spot where she lost consciousness.
"Ouch... my hands and feet are a little numb. Just how much force did Ai use?!"
Rubbing her wrist, Yi Yi stood up, genuinely confused about the current situation.
Having chosen the most efficient method, Yi Yi directly summoned her cerebellum to inquire about the situation surrounding the series of inexplicable events that had just occurred.
The cerebellum buzzed for a long time, seemingly reporting data about what had just happened.
When asked, Yi Yi replied naturally, "I don't know the specifics yet. I'm uploading data and checking for errors, but just now your brainwaves were transferred to another character's data, and your body was also controlled. According to the world view, it should be a soul swap."
Yi Yi stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, "Because the current data is unstable, and this is a plot that didn't exist in the first place, you're not clear about the situation right now, are you?"
"Mmm, that's right." The cerebellum had barely agreed with Yi Yi's guess when the data came out. "Ah, I understand, Yi Yi..."
Before she could finish speaking, a pair of withered hands climbed onto Yi Yi's shoulders from behind.
A somber, hoarse female voice came through: "It's you..."
He was completely unaware of her approach, and his cerebellum didn't even send a warning.
The woman who appeared almost out of nowhere behind her sent chills down Yi Yi's spine.
The woman chuckled as she touched Yi Yi's stiff body.
The laughter grew increasingly shrill and piercing.
But then she slowly moved closer to her ear.
The damp breath sprayed behind Yi Yi's ear, sending shivers down her spine.
Yi Yi clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms to keep herself calm.
Finally, just as the woman released her hand from her shoulder and reached forward, seemingly to strangle her, she caught a glimpse of an opening.
Yi Yi quickly raised her hand to give her an over-the-shoulder throw.
But those hands swiftly withdrew, preventing Yi Yi from touching them.
The giggling behind me continued.
It became increasingly jarring.
Yi Yi spread her legs and squatted down, adopting a defensive posture to stabilize her lower body, and suddenly turned around to look behind her.
But there was no one behind him.
He was greatly alarmed.
Even the chuckles still echoed hoarsely behind me.
Like a maggot clinging to a bone, it's disgusting and sticky.
I have a rough idea.
Sure enough, the cerebellum's response came belatedly in the brain: "Sorry, there was a momentary signal interference. Xiao Yiyi, we detected that you just swapped souls with the witch."
“Yes, I know,” Yi Yi replied calmly.
But only she knows how nervous she really is.
The plot of this world that I know provides limited reference, and my cerebellum doesn't know much more than I do.
In this situation, they suddenly encountered the witch who had cursed Ai.
The witch was still putting on such an act.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.
But we can't show weakness either.
For now, we can only maintain a silent standoff with her.
If Yi Yi is not mistaken, the person behind her now is not the witch's true form.
After all, she had been a witch and knew just how difficult it was to move her frail body while dragging those heavy shackles.
So it's probably something like an out-of-body experience?
Is it because I have a certain special status in Ai Yi's group that they've set their sights on me?
Yi Yi pursed her lips without making a sound.
The laughter behind me slowly drew closer again.
But the laughter suddenly stopped for a moment, followed by a soft "Eh."
The sound of footsteps approached from afar.
Yi Yi seemed to sense something and raised her head.
At a glance, they saw Ai, who was panting heavily.
