The midday sun was intense, but thankfully it was cool inside the castle, with the air feeling cool and slightly gloomy.


    The interior was beautifully decorated with colorful cartoonish toys disyed around, creating a yful atmosphere.


    In the center of the ballroom, there was a sculpture of Beauty dancing with the Beast, perfectly replicating the fairy tale scene and allowing visiting guests to immerse themselves in a world full of fantastical colors.


    But at this moment, there were no lights, and the dim environment made the originally romantic and splendid sculpture appear eerie and gloomy.


    The beauty’s smile was so rigid, and the beast’s face was so ferocious.


    Bai Youwei had seen this fairy tale as a child and found it quite romantic—the power of true love transforming the beast back into a prince. It did hit the soft spot for little girls.


    But now, upon seeing this thing, she couldn’t help but be reminded of the Duke, resulting in a conditioned dislike.


    Thinking back to the female protagonist falling in love with a beast, she thought those were indeed some strange tastes.


    “There are quite a few corners in the castle where one could hide.” Shen Mo looked around, inspecting at a leisurely pace.


    Bai Youwei said, “Yes… Inside the cupboards, under the bed, behind the sculpture, inside the wine barrels, and in these treasure chests filled with treasures. All could be hiding spots.”


    She let Shen Mo put her down, and picked out a Gold Coin from the chest, with a cartoon design and a stic texture.<div>


    Quite normal.


    The props in the amusement park, of course, would not be real gold coins.


    Otherwise, she would have had another looting spree in the toy house.


    Bai Youwei overturned one of the treasure chests filled with ‘gold and silver treasures’.


    Shen Mo raised his eyebrows, “Are you nning to hide in the chest?”


    “No…” She took out the golden key and casually opened a toy house somewhere.


    Pan Xiaoxin was eating yogurt inside the house. He was taken aback when he suddenly saw the door open.


    Bai Youwei was also startled, and then raised her eyebrows, “Xiaoxin! What tasty thing are you hiding and eating?!”


    “Yogurt…” Pan Xiaoxin paused for two seconds, and then quickly exined, “Teacher Chang made it from milk that was close to its expiration date, he didn’t want to waste it.”


    He emphasized “close to expiration” to avoid any misunderstandings that might interfere with unity and camaraderie!


    Bai Youwei said, “I want some too, go get me a bowl!”


    Pan Xiaoxin quickly left to find Teacher Chang with his bowl.


    Chang Weicai filled a bowl full of yogurt for Bai Youwei, put it into a lunch box, and handed it to her. He nced outside and asked with concern, “Has your game started? Why is it so dark out there? Is it dangerous…?”


    Bai Youwei tasted the sour yogurt, and her face wrinkled up, “This is too sour!”


    Teacher Chang paused for a moment, then hurriedly said, “Did I forget to add sugar? Come, hand me that bowl…”


    Just as his finger appeared outside the door, Shen Mo frowned and said: “Don’te out!”


    rmed, Teacher Chang stood frozen, not daring to move.


    Bai Youwei handed the bowl back to Teacher Chang, “Add sugar, add raisins, dried cranberries, and if there are oat kes and cheese nuggets, add those too. I almost died from sourness…”<div>


    Shen Mo warned Teacher Chang, “We are in a game instance. If youe out, you won’t be able to return and the yer count will change. This may indirectly influence the game, so it’s better to be careful.”


    Teacher Chang nodded repeatedly holding the bowl, “Xiaoshen is right, I wasn’t paying attention…”


    Bai Youwei told Pan Xiaoxin: “Go get some weapons from the storage room.”


    Pan Xiaoxin quickly left to do as instructed.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om<div>


    Teacher Chang added sugar and dried fruits to the yogurt till it was quite full, then he helped Pan Xiaoxin get the weapons. Broad sword, short sword, spear, battleaxe, il, throwing axe… He fetched arge assortment of them and put them all in Bai Youwei’s emptied ‘treasure chest’.


    Bai Youwei threw in some stic gold coins and pearls into the chest as well, and after the decoration, it seemed as if this chest was originally filled with cold weapons.


    Shen Mo looked down at her and asked, “You n to have everyone fight the cat with these things?”
