At the same time, Cai Shi rushed upstairs and quickly pushed away the table that had just been used by the Youth League Secretary on the second floor, making it look like someone had pushed the table away quickly and ran out in a hurry.
Masha's voice came from upstairs: "Zhizhi, you switched too quickly just now. I almost didn't have time to move the skill to you!"
"Squeak your sister! Call me Fang Fang!" The League Secretary shouted while putting his chest against Shelley's back again and nodded to Chihiro.
Chihiro let go of her hand and ran upstairs quickly.
Cai Shi also finished her work and returned downstairs, picking up the coconut shells on the ground.
Everyone heard Masha's voice: "Act 1, Scene 3, get ready! Eh Shen!"

Shelley turned around and tried to run, but was stopped by the puppet - wait, it's the league secretary?
"What happened to you?" the League Secretary asked with concern, "I heard you screaming and ran over. I just happened to see you falling down the stairs. I finally caught you with great difficulty."
"I... a puppet!"
"Puppet?" The League Secretary looked upstairs in confusion, "What puppet?"
Shelley then realized that she was pointing at the top of the stairs. She put her hand down and looked at the empty corner of the stairs in confusion.
There is indeed nothing.
--Huh?
—Have I become so insane?
--wrong!
Shelley suddenly escaped from the League Secretary's arms and distanced himself from her: "You are trying to trick me!"
**
"It's reaction B! Quick, plan B!" Masha ordered in a low voice.
**
The league secretary in front of Shelley suddenly turned into an expressionless puppet—and then the corners of the puppet's mouth gradually curled up.
Every cell in Shelley's brain was screaming.
——Run away!
She turned and ran. Although this was the way to go up, if she ran to the rooftop, she could jump to the rooftop of the house next door. The houses on the left and right sides of this building were one floor lower than it!
She quickly rushed up the stairs and turned the corner——
A tall man wearing a yellow raincoat and a white smiley mask under his hood was standing on the third floor, blocking the stairs.
The mask seemed to be mocking Shelley.
No, not like, that would be mocking.
The King in Yellow looked down upon the mortals who dared to defy his authority, as if he were mocking an ant who overestimated his own capabilities.
——Don’t be complacent too soon!
Shelley roared inwardly, and the sudden burst of courage made her pull out her portable makeup bag - this was of course a makeup bag, but it contained a 3MM caliber dum-dum bullet. At this distance, as long as it hit the heart, it would be % sure to kill the enemy -
Chapter 325 I Want to Speak My Lines (Part )
The next moment, Shelley found himself standing on a small island.
The surface of this island is so flat, so flat that it looks like a texture was loaded directly on the sea surface. There is almost no slope from the middle of the island to the beaches on both sides.
An island like this probably can't even retain sand, but the ground is indeed soil, covered with green grass and scattered wild flowers.
This is definitely not a scenario that could occur in reality.
In the center of a flat island is a huge banyan tree that is so big that it doesn't seem like it can grow on such an island.
Under the banyan tree, there are strange machines and solar panels. These mechanical devices form a sharp contrast with this beautiful fairyland-like place.
Especially those exposed, messy wires, which are like cancer cells entrenched on the surface of normal organs.
On an old iron table, there is a computer, and the computer screen displays an operating page from the last century.
A doll sat on a chair in front of a computer, facing Shelley, the light from the computer screen shining on the side of her face.
The doll was so beautiful that it didn't look like a thing from this world, but when placed in this weird scene, among the "cancer cells", it immediately looked distorted and inharmonious.
Shelley stared at the doll.
Breathing becomes rapid.
She realized that she no longer had her makeup box, but—did it matter?
——From which part does it begin to become a dream?
——How am I now?
——No, I want to wake up from my dream!
——This aspect has never been included in the training I received, but I have seen movies!
——Think back to how you forced yourself to wake up in Inception?
But now she couldn't remember the plot of the movie at all!
——No matter what, as long as I die in the dream, I will wake up!
——It’s all designed this way!
——Just bite off your tongue...
Shelley couldn't make up his mind.
- What if this is the real purpose of the King in Yellow? To warn the intelligence agencies around the world through my suicide?
Suddenly, Shelley discovered that the doll sitting in the "cancer cell" in front of him was gone.
There was no trace of her on the entire island.
Then the interface on the computer screen disappeared and turned into a blurry image.
The screen was facing sideways towards Shelley, so she couldn't see what was on it at all, so she plucked up her courage and took a step forward.
The touch of the mud under my feet is so real.
——Am I really in a dream?
——But this kind of scene can only be a dream, right?
At this time, Shelley finally recognized the main body of the "cancer cell".
That is a monitor that detects fluctuations in people with super powers.
--I see.
——I understand.
——Subconsciously, I have always regarded people with super powers as cancer cells that erode the beautiful world and industrial waste that destroys the natural beauty. This dream reflects my thoughts!
——This is your ability, King in Yellow!
Shelley came to the computer and looked at the image on the screen.
It's that doll.

In fact, right behind Shelley, there is a closed door. League Secretary Masha and the young girl Tang Yingqiu are squeezed behind the door and looking at Shelley. The League Secretary is ready to use his skills at any time - everyone else is in the store, ready to deal with the foreign girls who will come to work and punch in later.
"She won't recognize the little girl, will she?" asked the League Secretary.
"With that kind of makeup, how could you possibly recognize her?" Masha whispered, "Be prepared and see how she reacts next."
"You are the one who is prepared, right? This is the plan we made yesterday."
"Nonsense, even I can't predict that far ahead. Don't worry, I can come up with something at the last minute."
"I believe it," said the League Secretary, "after all, you are the best at this."

Shelley looked at the doll.
The doll is singing, but there is no sound.
Shelley reached out and pressed the mute button on the Cherry keyboard that was placed in front of the screen.
The next moment, a song was heard, a nursery rhyme sung by a child:
Sister carrying a doll
Walk to the garden to see the cherry blossoms
The baby cried and called for his mother
The birds on the tree are laughing
Baby, baby, why are you crying?
Did you remember what your mother said?
Baby, baby, don't cry anymore
Tell me if you have anything on your mind.
I once had a home
And dear mom and dad
One day my father got drunk.
Picked up the axe and walked towards my mother
Dad, Dad, I chopped him down many times.
The red blood dyed the wall red
Mom's head rolled under the bed
Her eyes are still looking at me
Dad, Mom, why, why?
Then my father asked me to help him
We buried our mother under the tree
Then, Dad raised the axe.
Peel off my skin and make it into a doll
Shelley was horrified and subconsciously stepped back. Suddenly, the doll appeared and sat in its original position.
She slowly turned her head and looked at Shelley.
Shelley's breathing quickened.
The doll opened its mouth.
"What? Big sister, you are also a doll."
"I'm not!" Shelley shouted.

Masha poked the league secretary hard in the waist.
So she activated her ability, formed a long rectangle and put Shelley inside it.
Masha started running.
The little girl yelled, "How's my acting!"
"You should remove your ability first! It's so scary!"
Then Masha picked up Shelley, and the League Secretary ran over and kept covering Shelley.
She glanced at Shelley's mouth.
"Wait a minute!" the league secretary yelled, and then reached out to pull Shelley's mouth open, "Damn, this guy is about to bite her tongue. She actually thinks she is in a dream."
