When Ouyang Yan woke up, she was faced with an extremely unfamiliar face when she opened her eyes. She was still sleeping peacefully. But Ouyang Yan was frightened to death.

"Hey, who are you?!"

The princess was woken up, but she showed no sign of anger. She only said softly: "It was Xiao Nuo who asked me to sleep here." After a pause, she added, "I am the princess."

"Are you a princess?" Ouyang Yan couldn't believe it. She looked her up and down carefully. After a while, she said, "That princess in the cage? Qinuo saved you?"

"Um."

Ouyang Yan said self-consciously: "She is really idle. She hasn't even completed her task yet..."

"However, after she brought me here, she said she wanted to go out to do some errands."

Ouyang Yan looked sideways at her, "What happened? Did she say anything?"

"No." The princess shook her head helplessly, "I can't always see through her."

Ouyang Yan reached a consensus with her on this point, "Well, she is so mysterious."

"Dong dong dong——"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside. Ouyang Yan thought it was Qinuo and immediately ran to open the door, but she didn't expect it was the boss. He was holding a vegetable plate with a large bowl of broth and several meatloaf on it.

.

The boss was wearing a hat with the brim so low that his whole face could hardly be seen.

"This is the breakfast I gave you."

Ouyang Yan was so surprised that she immediately took the dish, fearing that the boss would regret it.

The boss added: "A few people disappeared last night. I kindly advise you again to stay in your room at night and don't go out."

"Oh." After a pause, Ouyang Yan asked, "Why are you so kind today, giving me food and advice?"

The boss didn't answer the question anymore, but turned around and left.

"It's weird." Ouyang Yan put the dish on the table, "Come over and eat."

The princess picked up a piece of meat pie and took a bite. She was a little surprised and said, "This tastes a bit familiar."

“Isn’t this what meatloaf tastes like?”

Less than five minutes had passed when there was another hurried knock on the door, accompanied by the boss's anxious voice, "Open the door quickly!!!"

Ouyang Yan opened the door impatiently, "What are you doing..."

"The emperor has sent people to arrest you. Get out of here with me!"

"Because of what?"

"Don't you know? The bones your companions found somewhere are definitely the dead nightingales. Now they have angered the emperor and they will be beheaded tomorrow. You'd better leave here quickly, my door

I can’t hold on for long.”

The boss took them to the kitchen on the first floor, where there was a cabinet with a secret door behind it.

When the princess was about to leave, the boss stopped her.

Looking at the rusty iron sword in the princess's hand, the boss suddenly said something incomprehensible: "The knight will appear when the princess is in danger and protect her at his own expense."

The princess was looking at the boss's green eyes in trance. Before she could say anything, the boss pushed her out and closed the door. The next second, the hotel door was pushed open.

The princess stood in front of the wall and didn't know what to think. Ouyang Yan felt helpless and grabbed her arm hard and ran away.

The princess had a heavy look on her face and said, "I'm going to save Qinuo." As she said that, she broke away from Ouyang Yan's hand and stopped, her hand holding the sword getting tighter and tighter.

Ouyang Yan turned around and looked anxiously in the direction of the hotel, and then said to the princess: "We have to escape just to save Qinuo! If we are all caught, then everyone will be dead. Get out of here first.

, and make other plans..."

Although the situation is very bad, some people are not anxious at all, which is in sharp contrast to Ouyang Yan.

"...until the moment I saw the emperor, I understood. The nightingale was what the emperor asked us to find, so as long as he is sure that it is a nightingale, it will be the nightingale that the game asked us to find."

"The emperor did indeed kill the nightingale, so as long as this is confirmed, it doesn't matter whether the pile of bones is the body of the nightingale. After all, no one can identify the original animal based on the bones alone."

Qinuo smiled mockingly, "The emperor has confirmed it in his heart, so our mission is completed."

Ye Zhenzhen was silent: "You are so smart, you actually know so much. I really can't compare to you."

Qinuo shook his head and said with a smile: "The game is not difficult, there are clues everywhere. Okay, I've said so much, it's your turn."

"I...what did I say?"

Qinuo rolled his eyes, "You know."

After a long silence, Ye Zhenzhen took a deep breath and began to say:

"You should have read the story of Cinderella, right?" Ye Zhenzhen deliberately kept her tone very calm, as if she was describing something that had nothing to do with her:

"In order to put on the glass slipper and become the queen, one of Cinderella's stepmother's two daughters cut off his toes and the other cut off his heel. Do you know, I just stood there and watched him holding the knife?

, I cut my feet bit by bit. No matter how I shouted, I couldn't make a sound, and no one came to help me.

Finally, he put on the pair of glass slippers that had turned red and danced non-stop. The blood dyed the ground red. He screamed in pain, but I was powerless. I couldn't even call out his name. The only thing I could do was

Just watch him go away."

Her voice was so calm that it was impossible to imagine her face full of tears without looking up at her.

"Ha... fairy tale, what a dream fairy tale..." Ye Zhenzhen covered her face and laughed miserably, "This is obviously the scariest fairy tale I have ever seen."

Qinuo held her chin and looked at Ye Zhenzhen quietly. Her eyes were very cold and there was no emotion that a person should have. "He loves you more than you think. You are really willing to give him everything in exchange for his life."

Throw it away?"

"I just want to stay with him, Qinuo, if it were you, what would you choose?" Ye Zhenzhen looked at her with tearful eyes, her eyes containing too many emotions, struggle, entanglement, pain... all of this

It was too difficult, so she left the problem to others and let others choose.

Qinuo said: "I will not let myself face this problem." Her answer was strong and paranoid, "No one can take away my people, they belong to me alone."

After the cage was repaired, Qinuo felt even more relieved.

Ye Zhenzhen lowered her head and said nothing. Her figure was thin and shaky.

She also wants to, but she is not Qinuo, not as smart as her, nor as calm as her. Some are just anxious, holding others back, and in the end, others have to pay the price to protect her...
