No no no, Xü Beijin wants to tell Mu Jiashi he is wrong. He wasn’t intending anything like that.

He really just told him a clue about a random Nightmare.

Clearly, though, Mu Jiashi has become convinced of his own flawless deductions, believing that Xü Beijin already tried to give him clues years ago, although he ‘did not realise’ that at the time.

He was even happy that he got to a higher floor successfully.

Until a sudden defeat shattered his confidence, and sent him back down to the bottom floor, where he reevaluated the place from whence he started.

Now, he has discovered that there are so many secrets hidden here as well.

“Now…” Mu Jiashi continues, “I’m also suspecting NE’s circumstances, courtesy of my companions’ information.”

Xü Beijin thinks about it a little, and nods, then says, “I would agree that that is the only possible source which can create so many rumours in the Tower.”

Mu Jiashi is looking at Xü Beijin now.

But Xü Beijin doesn’t dwell on the topic much, saying, “and about my Nightmare, since you’re here already, I’ll make a decision right now. The night the day after tomorrow, I will open my Nightmare.”

Mu Jiashi is clearly glad to hear that.

“However…” Xü Beijin says, “I will not just let anybody into my Nightmare, and so I would also ask you keep this a secret. I am sure it is in all our interests that the tragedy from a few years back do not repeat itself.

Also, I would like you to be the one screening the people heading into my Nightmare. I expect ten at most——

Including you and Lin Qin, which means you can appoint eight others at most. The condition for the candidates…”

Xü Beijin stops, falling into thought here.

Mu Jiashi, meanwhile, glances over at Lin Qin, sitting by Xü Beijin’s side, and thinks, as expected.

It is because of Lin Qin that Xü Beijin opens his Nightmare.

Even Mu Jiashi finds himself not too sure how to react to such a circumstance.

Xü Beijin would never know how speechless Mu Jiashi was glancing over at Lin Qin.

To break with principle because of love, on someone like Xü Beijin——

Specially, on someone with the appearance like that of Xü Beijin, is quite unfathomable.

But that is what’s happening here.

Mu Jiashi finds himself really, really relieved by that.

Xü Beijin has finished thinking now, and tells Mu Jiashi, “the condition is that, they must have been to as many Nightmares as possible.”

“Alright…” Mu Jiashi then pauses, and asks for clarification, “as many Nightmares as possible, but not having had as many True Ends as possible?”

Xü Beijin nods, “that’s right. It doesn’t matter if they have ever even had a True End, but they must have been too as many Nightmares as possible, the more the better.”

Mu Jiashi is quite surprised. What kind of requirement is this? Is it not True Ends that are more reflective of the quality of Missiontakers in general?

Or could this also be hinting at some nature of Xü Beijin’s Nightmare?

But whatever he asks afterwards, Xü Beijin does not answer anymore. Finally, he shakes his head and says, “you will know the rest when you’re in my Nightmare. And also, as a final warning, my Nightmare… is truly dangerous.”

Mu Jiashi looks taken aback.

Xü Beijin looks really tired – his voice threatens to trail off at any point. It sends chills down anyone who can hear.

He says, “succumbing will be extremely likely within. You must be mentally adjusted for that.”

Mu Jiashi nods with a stern expression.

Then he leaves, mired deep in his worry, while looking for candidates to enter Xü Beijin’s Nightmare.

When he is gone, Lin Qin looks at Xü Beijin and asks, worried, “are you going to let others into your Nightmare?”

Xü Beijin looks at him, and asks, curious, “didn’t you wish for me to sleep? Why do you still sound worried?”

“Because, it should still be your own will,” Lin Qin, “but you are already too tired… It’s really problematic. If only you don’t have to go into the Nightmare when you sleep.”

“Sleeptalking already?” Xü Beijin looks like he is smiling when he says, “it’s been so many years already, in any case… Maybe, everything will be over this time.”

Lin Qin says, “I believe in you.”

Xü Beijin stares at Lin Qin with widened eyes, then suddenly, he asks, “are you really going to go into my Nightmare?”

Lin Qin then asks, “do you not want me to?”

“It’s really dangerous…”

“I’m not worried about dangers,” Lin Qin leans over, and stares straight back at Xü Beijin, saying, “you know what I want. If you really falter or something in your Nightmare, then I’d happily lie in rest with you.”

Xü Beijin moves his gaze away awkwardly, but doesn’t push Lin Qin away.

Lin Qin, happy, is about to say something.

Xü Beijin immediately says, “no kissing…”

Lin Qin “…”

Fine! No kisses, fine! Why did you even have to say it! Can’t he at least imagine it?!

He leans back a little, giving Xü Beijin a glare from his unthreatening babyface.

Xü Beijin, amused, ruffles the young man’s hair, and then says, “I have to go out now.”

“Where are you going?”

“I have to look for a Tower resident.”

“The neighbour with the indeterminate gender?”

Even if Lin Qin was just hovering about the last Nightmare, he at least knows the Missiontakers were having a hard time because of the gender of the Nightmare owner – Xie Ji, who is also Su Enya, is Xü Beijin’s neighbour.

“No, not her,” Xü Beijin is chuckling from Lin Qin’s description, as he explains, “I have to look for Dai Wu. This time, I’ll probably be able to meet him in person.”

Lin Qin nods, and finally, he asks, as expected, “can I go with you? It’ll be safer…”

“What danger is there in the Tower?” Xü Beijin stands up and casually adds a, “watch the shop for me, little apple, thanks.”

So the little apple is on watch duty.

Xü Beijin leaves the bookstore, and falls into thought while walking towards the Tower resident who is Dai Wu’s subordinate.

To this day, Dai Wu has yet to meet him in person in the Tower, which strikes Xü Beijin as a bit odd.

Is there something more to it…

Compared to the Missiontakers, it seems true that the Actors really are less and less like normal people of human society.

While thinking, he suddenly notices someone walking towards him from the corner of his eye.

The person seems slightly familiar, even though he can’t exactly recall who he is, or when he met him.

Finally, when the person notices him as well, and then looks shocked and even fearful, that Xü Beijin remembered the expression.

It’s the livestreamer.

The game livestreamer, who, in Wu Shen’s Nightmare, left his streaming system behind, in this game.
