Chapter 11: 11

#2 twisted his waist and turned around, as though a dormant volcano suddenly erupting, giving the explorers venturing towards the peak of the volcano a scare of their lives.  

Ai Bei didn’t manage to catch her balance, and so she rolled down, before she found herself pressed beneath him. 

Unfortunately, #2 seemed to have made too much noise. The creaky bed accidentally woke up his asleep bunk mate. The inmate sleeping at the bunk above him threw something downwards with a slam. The inmate’s sleep-deprived, irritated voice sounded, “fucking hell, keep it down!” 

Silence returned to the cell room. 

In the dark, #2 opened his eyes, his undecipherable gaze trained on her, as though trying to look at the true her through the false body she received in this world. She’d have snow white skin, her lips would be a faint shade of pink, her light grey eyes would be as though morning mist, her figure appearing and disappearing into the fog — blurry and enigmatic. 

His dark shadow closed in. 

His kiss was rough and impetuous. The both of them winced when their teeth slammed into each other. He licked her lips as though in comfort, his actions inexperienced and blunt. 

The bathroom scene had affected him. Guys were visual creatures to begin with, even if he was straight, just the thought that he’d seen it with her, and her rushed peck from earlier was sufficient to set him boiling. 

Bubbling in his fervent excitement was also a tinge of annoyance and dissatisfaction. 

Did she actually mind what happened within this world? 

Why was she so eager to figure things out even though this was such an unreasonable task? Was it because none of this — both the events and the people — was real to her? 

The more he kissed her, the less he could control his instincts, and he more his questions in his head multiplied, drilling himself. 

Why was it that she could easily shift her memories of him aside, why did she act as though they didn’t know each other when they were back in the training room, she didn’t even look at him, why—

Before he knew it, he had already mercilessly stolen her of all her air, including the pockets of time for her to catch her breath. She whimpered as she struggled, tears glinting in her eyes, her forever calm gaze suddenly coloured with a different expression from her usual. 

It was then did he suddenly realise what he’d done; he immediately released her. 

“I don’t want to be the one that has to hurt.” After finally catching her breath, she said glumly. 

“…”

He just wasted his kiss. 

#2 frustration shot up. Did she think he was trying to fight out their positions in a kiss? 

His voice turned chilly: “You think I want to do it with a guy?”

He didn’t want to?

What a pity, Ai Bei was a little disappointed, but she said: “I mean, it’s not like I want to be a guy.” 

She looked at him with a gaze teary from the kiss, looking particularly wronged. #2 suddenly found himself utterly defeated. His head was a mess, he tried to change the topic to distract her from their current situation. “Didn’t you say you can’t get used to using the toothbrush head? I figured out how to fix it for you.” 

“…How are you gonna fix it?”

He mumbled at her ears in a low, husky voice. Whatever ridiculous, or hilarious idea it was that he’d he came up with, it had her covering her mouth in laughter, “no I don’t want it, don’t give that to me.” 

When he saw her smile, #2’s hanging heart finally settled. 

He was definitely not going to let anything happen between the two of them while she’s stuck in a male body. Since she didn’t want to fail the mission, he’ll finish it for her.

Within the training room, the projected image of what was happening within the virtual world disappeared when Ai Bei lifted #2’s shirt. When the projection returned, a male voice sounded. 

“I give up.”

#3’s relaxed in relief, her previous tension fading away. Even though the mission target was Ai Bei, #2 did not agree to finishing his part of the mission. According to the rules, #2’s points would be deducted. Regardless, #4 was the one benefitting. #3 was glad she didn’t set a bad mission. 

From the top of the charts, #2’s loss in points immediately had him fell to the last place; he was in a very precarious position. There were only three players left. The turns switched very quickly, and it was Ai Bei’s turn to set a mission for him again.

Ai Bei was the one setting the mission, but honestly it seemed more as though she was trying to give him points for free, and even flirting with him given the setting. 

Ai Bei wanted him to hold her hand and confess to her at the restaurant that was situated on the highest level in the city.

#3 frowned as she looked at Ai Bei. 

So the reason she stayed back was to help #2 so they can proceed to the next stage together?

If this was the case, then the 5 points that had been deducted from #2 was really nothing. If #2 were to team up with Ai Bei, her sister wouldn’t stand a chance against them on her own, she didn’t have enough points, it was honestly very possible that she may be eliminated.

How careless of her! 

#3 couldn’t help but regret, she shouldn’t have left, or at least, she should have ensured that #4 had enough points before leaving. She had no powers to help her sister out.

Evidently, #2 had the same train of thought as #3. His gaze fell on Ai Bei.

Their characters were still inside the prison. In order to leave the prison and get to the tallest skyscraper in the city, they only had one option: prison break.

While preparing for their final escapade, the two of them got into a minor argument. ♢ CHART TOPPER QUEEN, CHAPTER 11 is hosted at ZHANLANN.COM ♢

#2 checked the access card he got while asking her: “Why didn’t you file a lawsuit to clear my name for me?” And instead got herself into jail?

“Isn’t it because of you?” She glanced at him innocently, “if I came even a minute later to save you, you’d be dead.”

He clenched his teeth, “then why didn’t you set this place as the mission setting earlier?”

She squatted down and watched him sort out the lock. At his words, she gave a smile, “isn’t this more interesting.”

#2 was so mad he almost broke the lock with his bare hands.

Fortunately for them, prison breaking in a low-end civilisation wasn’t impossible. The galactic residents were big on combat, their knowledge of basic combat skills was sufficient to help them escape any officers they may bump into.

The other inmates in their cell also gave them a hand and helped to buy them more time. When the inmates found out that the two of them were planning to prison break to go out on a date, they stirred up a huge commotion about it for the longest time, and volunteered bravely to help cover for them.

They took advantage of the time gap in-between different shifts. The two of them had familiarised themselves with the route, and managed to get their hands on some officer uniform. When it was time to change shifts, the two donned in officer uniform tapped their access cards and walked out confidently.

On their way out, #2 almost bumped into officer B who was walking towards him. And so, the two of them split ways. Having reached the main gate, Ai Bei hollered at him: “Hurry up! You’ll miss the dinner gathering at this rate!”

This was a piece of information that they had overheard from the prison officers. 

#2 quickly nodded in officer B’s direction and ran towards the gate.
