Four people in the same room had fallen into a dilemma with no way forward or back.

Doctor Zhao knew that no matter what, the current situation had already spiraled out of control.

Four people in one room, and one of them was Chen Junnan.

In other words, Chen Junnan alone had managed to trap three people from their own side.

A team only had seven people in total. Excluding Chu Tianqiu left six people, and among these six, three were trapped in the room, leaving only Yan Zhichun, Wen Qiaoyun, and Zhang Shan.

Yan Zhichun and Wen Qiaoyun had naturally gone to “invade” the other side, so in the entire home territory’s ten rooms, only Zhang Shan was guarding alone.

In other words, at this moment their home was wide open. If they didn’t quickly resolve this puzzle of the real and fake Chen Junnan, they might as well just surrender directly.

“Jin Yuanxun!” Chen Junnan A turned to look at Jin Yuanxun. “Do you remember, three years ago the two of us participated in a game together, and in that game I transformed into a fat uncle!”

“Uh…” After hearing this, Jin Yuanxun turned to look at Doctor Zhao. Unfortunately, his own memory hadn’t been preserved for that many years. Right now only the person who said these words could know whether it was true or false.

After hearing this, Chen Junnan B likewise refused to concede defeat: “He doesn’t even know you’ve lost your memory. Can you still believe him? Jin Yuanxun, I’ve found the method for ‘Echo.’ Find a way to get him to leave, and I’ll teach you ‘Echo.’ See if I’m real or not!”

After hearing this, Doctor Zhao carefully thought through the current situation for a while and quickly sorted out the key points, saying: “Liunian, didn’t you already rush to the ‘front lines’ together with them earlier? Why did you suddenly turn back?”

“Because the ‘character’ was lost!” After both Chen Junnans said this simultaneously, they looked at each other again, both showing expressions of disgust.

“The ‘character’ was lost…?”

“So hurry up and let me go back!!” Chen Junnan A said. “If I don’t return to the ‘Preparation Zone’ now, I’ll be dead once Earth-Dragon comes down in a bit!”

“I already said that!” Chen Junnan B said.

“Don’t mind.” Both Chen Junnans said simultaneously, then looked at each other with disgust after speaking.

After hearing both of them speak so earnestly, Doctor Zhao’s heart was already half dead, but just to be safe, he and Jin Yuanxun still walked forward to separately search Chen Junnan A and B.

As expected, neither of them had a “character” on them.

Since Chen Junnan dared to swagger over here pretending to be Xu Liunian, how could he be afraid of being searched?

But he must have a “character” on him, otherwise he’d be breaking the rules. It was just that right now they didn’t know where the “character” was.

In this game, pretending to have a “character” was difficult, but pretending not to have one was too simple. If Chen Junnan was ruthless enough, he could even swallow the “character” into his stomach.

Just as several people were hesitating, Earth-Dragon in mid-air slowly stood up and leaped down toward the room below. Almost everyone active in the venue saw this scene.

Earth-Dragon’s pale figure landed in the room with the two Chen Junnans. When she landed, she merely bent her legs slightly, making very little sound.

The four people in the room didn’t look too pleased upon seeing Earth-Dragon descend.

“It’s been over two minutes.” Earth-Dragon said expressionlessly. “If the person who lost their ‘character’ hasn’t escaped back to the ‘Preparation Zone’ within three minutes, I’ll have no choice but to send them to their death.”

After hearing this, both Chen Junnans became flustered, both seeming somewhat afraid.

“This is the first time a ‘characterless lingering’ situation has occurred.” Earth-Dragon said. “Whoever survives, please help me convey to the others that next time the time limit will become thirty seconds.”

Doctor Zhao slowly swallowed, feeling that Earth-Dragon’s timing was just perfect.

“Excellent…” Doctor Zhao said. “Since Earth-Dragon has come, she definitely knows who to kill… The person she’s going to kill must be the real Xu Liunian!”

After hearing this, both Chen Junnans showed speechless expressions.

Yes, if someone died, they’d certainly know who was real. And then what?

Jin Yuanxun turned to look at Earth-Dragon: “Jie… which one are you going to kill?”

“Interesting…” Earth-Dragon covered her mouth and laughed “haha.” “Although I could see clearly from above, saying it out loud wouldn’t be fun anymore. My duty is only to kill rule-breakers, not to help you distinguish who’s real. Forty seconds left.”

“Huh?!” Both Chen Junnans panicked simultaneously. “That won’t work!”

The situation had now entered a countdown. Doctor Zhao hurriedly stared carefully at the two Chen Junnans to distinguish them. After all, at this moment the real Xu Liunian would be more panicked because she truly faced the risk of elimination, while the fake Xu Liunian didn’t have this concern. His purpose from the beginning was to stall for time, thereby eliminating the real Xu Liunian.

So at this moment, the real Chen Junnan should be delighted, not panicked.

But after Doctor Zhao stared at the two for several seconds, he discovered both of them seemed truly panicked. Neither looked like they were acting.

He had faced many critically ill patients and was too familiar with the demeanor people displayed when death was imminent.

It was an extremely complex look in the eyes, with every cell in the body resisting fate together.

This kind of demeanor couldn’t be faked by ordinary people. Even professional film actors would find it very difficult to reproduce.

Wait…

Doctor Zhao suddenly thought of something. Did Chen Junnan really have a “character” on him?

Was it possible that he truly felt he was going to die?

But to break into the enemy’s battle zone without bringing a “character”…

“Twenty seconds left.” Earth-Dragon had already rolled up her sleeves, as if afraid of getting them dirty. “Are you ready?”

“I’ve got it!” Chen Junnan A suddenly thought of something. “Doctor Zhao! Come with me to the adjacent room! Jin Yuanxun, you stay here!”

“What?” Doctor Zhao was stunned.

“Let’s split into two groups and enter the rooms separately. That way the real Chen Junnan will definitely trigger the game.” Chen Junnan A said. “This way three of us four will know who’s real.”

“Will, will that work?” Doctor Zhao asked.

Earth-Dragon: “Ten seconds.”

“Don’t hesitate!! I’m going to die!!”

“Okay, okay, okay!” Doctor Zhao had no time to think further. He grabbed Chen Junnan A in front of him and hurriedly walked out of the room, arriving at the game venue on the other side.

At this moment, only Jin Yuanxun and Chen Junnan B remained, both confused, looking at each other across an open “door.” After just a few seconds, the “door” slammed shut heavily and locked.

It seemed either Doctor Zhao or Jin Yuanxun had triggered a game, but which one would it be…?

Chen Junnan A grabbed Doctor Zhao, saying nervously: “Hurry and go see Tianqiu with me! I’m the real one!!”

Doctor Zhao was stunned for a moment, then saw Chen Junnan A leading him out through another door, heading straight for the “Preparation Zone.”

The room indeed didn’t lock the door. The Chen Junnan before him was “fake”—Xu Liunian was “real.”

“Jin Yuanxun is in danger…” Doctor Zhao said.
