Du Wei and Chen Hui finished tidying up and jog over. They were also obviously frightened by the smoke and clamour in the corridor. Du Wei was dragging his slippers, his one foot still wearing a sock that he hadn’t taken off. Chen Hui was wearing Du Wei’s big T-shirt backward. Her neck was stuck by the high “neckline”, and a large amount of naked skin was exposed at her back.
“This is… What’s happening?” Chen Hui leaned against the door, looked at the scene inside, and was startled, “Why is there a fire?”
Du Wei had a deep distrust towards Li Sinian, he tilted his head and glanced at Fang Daichuan with inquiring eyes. Fang Daichuan looked down at the boy’s pale face and shook his head slightly at him.
The world is like this, he can only sigh.
Niu Xinyan patted the child’s back, her eyes staring straight at the air in front of her, her pupils devoid of life. She rocked the baby’s body and sang a nursery rhyme in a low voice. It was the tune of their local dialect, which Fang Daichuan could not understand. When she sang, her eyes were very calm and her expression did not waver, as if she had died on the spot.
Even if Chen Hui knew nothing of the situation, she still felt that something was wrong. She hid behind Yang Song, daring not to look at the small body. The owner of that body was sentenced to death by his biological mother from the moment he was born and his current state is just a continuation of his life status over the past ten years. It’s just that from the outsider’s point of view, this process of pushing a young life to the end is too harsh and brutal.
Du Wei looked around and noticed something was wrong: “Where’s Ding Zihui?”
Chen Hui glanced back at him and stomped his feet fiercely.
Du Wei gasped: “Why are you so fierce? I’m just asking. If there is a fire, I have to find out who the arsonist is!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that almost everyone present immediately turned their heads and stared at him directly.
Du Wei panicked, looked around and said bravely: “What? Am I wrong? A candle, without accelerant, can make fire this big? After all there are not many people here……”
Fang Daichuan and Li Sinian exchanged looks.
Li Sinian bent down and picked up the candlestick that had fallen from the ground. The copper layer has been blackened. When he touches it, the charred ash is mixed with some kind of sticky liquid, making his fingerprints printed.
Fang Daichuan half-squatted down, struggling to lower his nearly 1.9 metres height to the level of the child, staring at the other’s dying eyes and said softly, “Xiquan, do you remember what happened just now?”
The child lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, his eyes were weary. He thought for a long time, then shook his head slightly.
“I fell asleep,” he said in a weak and hoarse voice, “and woke up on fire.”
Fang Daichuan turned his head to look at everyone’s faces and his heart sank. He doesn’t want to speculate who among these girls have such malice. Yang Song has a straight temper, if she doesn’t like it, she will show it; Chen Hui is charming and cute, in a life or death situation, she cares more about whether his boyfriend looks at other girls; Ding Zihui is gentle and meticulous. He will always remember that day when he was in a low mood and lost trust in Li Sinian. It was Ding Zihui who sat by the reef with him and comforted him warmly.
If it is an ordinary variety show at the moment, these girls would be the most dynamic and lovely and Fang Daichuan is willing to be deceived by their flowery smiles at a critical moment, willing to watch their little craftiness, willing to use his own tag* in exchange for their survival.
(T/N : Remember that originally Chuan’er will play Werewolf game that using tag as prop)
But this is a survival game.
Here is a real battlefield.
Fraud, deception and even… murder.
Fang Daichuan didn’t want to believe that there would be a person who could set fire to a defenceless sleeping child. However, the subtle smell of oil fumes in the air and the rapid and violent fire made him can’t believe that this was an ordinary fire incident.
That left Yang Song, who claims to have been in the room all the time, Chen Hui, who the time when she went out to grab her boyfriend is unknown and Ding Zihui, who is still missing.
The sky outside the window became brighter and the unburned copper clock made a muffled sound as usual.
It’s eight o’clock.
Everyone seemed to have regained their senses and broke free from another frozen time and space. They all looked at the clock in the corner of the room and then retreated one by one in silence.
There was only the sound of everyone coming down using the stairs but Fang Daichuan and Li Sinian stayed.
Fang Daichuan didn’t know what expression to use to face the mother and son. He squatted on the ground and looked at Li Sinian as if asking for help.
Lisinian sighed and stroked the bangs on his head with his right hand
He also squatted down.
Fang Daichuan felt a little more at ease, thinking that I want to comfort Niu Xinyan with gentle words, but, I’m clumsy, I should leave this kind of thing to someone with a delicate mind and a high IQ. He thought, people with high IQs are always logical, they can see the problem properly and know where the most important part is.
However, Li Sinian crouched down, didn’t say a comforting word but went straight to the point: “You can tell me now, how did your husband die back then?” He didn’t look down at the child when he said this. Instead, he stared straight at Niu Xinyan, his bangs were pulled up, revealing a smooth and full forehead and his eyes were as sharp as knives.
Fang Daichuan covered his face with one hand in embarrassment, and quietly stretched out his other hand, tugging at the corners of his clothes.
Niu Xinyan’s eyes were a little distant as she slowly swept her eyes over and met Li Sinian’s gaze for a moment.
“You’d better hurry up, my patience is limited,” Li Sinian grabbed Fang Daichuan’s chaotic hand, squeezed his wrist firmly in his palm, not giving her an inch, “Voting time is coming, you are out of time.”
Fang Daichuan’s right hand was actually injured. His entire palm is burned and there is a red mark on his wrist, squeezed by Li Sinian, causing him to shiver in pain.
In the past, Li Sinian was perceptive and sensitive but now there is no trace of it.
Fang Daichuan turned his head and glanced at Li Sinian. There seemed to be a surging fire between his brows, like an active volcano at the bottom of their feet. Silent and suppressed but eventually it will burst with energy.
His eyes were like cold knives, at that moment Fang Daichuan’s heart was moving.
– Li Sinian is on fire.
This realisation made Fang Daichuan feel a strange illusion, as if seeing the invulnerable Paladin lift off his armour to reveal the skin inside; seeing the invincible Seraph* with burning wings on his back, become mortal with flesh and blood. Li Sinian, who has always been invincible in his eyes, actually can feel anger, anxiety and worry.

He didn’t just look down on people coldly. He also had hot emotions in his heart, deep and heavy with anger.
It was at this time that Fang Daichuan had a ridiculously shallow idea. He thought: He really is a human being.
The copper desk clock stood silently in the corner of the room and the second hand kept moving non-stop.
Niu Xinyan let go of her child, covered her face with her hands and cried.

If it was man-made arson, the murderer would be one of these people. Du Wei and Niu Xinyan had an appointment outside in the middle of the night. When he and Li Sinian went up the mountain, the two had been arguing on the mountain for a while, so they probably didn’t have the time to commit the crime. Then exclude himself and Li Sinian, who stayed with him all night, who is left?That left Yang Song, who claims to have been in the room all the time, Chen Hui, who the time when she went out to grab her boyfriend is unknown and Ding Zihui, who is still missing.
