chapter 8
I didn’t speak, but typed in the livestream chat.
[Even if you’re right, I’ve been drinking it for forty-nine days and nothing bad has happened.]
He replied quickly.
[Because she’s waiting for the right moment.]
[And tonight is that moment. In the middle of the first lunar month, the yin energy is at its peak, the soup has been drunk for forty-nine days, the Blood Sacrifice has begun-tonight is the day you lose your life! Anyway, try to sneak out first, your safety comes first. Remember, you must leave before midnight. After midnight, you won’t be able to get out.]
At some point, the messages he posted in the livestream chat turned red.
Looking at those rows of blood-red words, I felt a chill in my heart.
He sounded so certain.
The fans in the livestream room were in an uproar.
Some told me not to believe him.
Others said it’s better to be safe than sorry.
I thought it over.
To be safe, I’d better sneak out first.
I’m already an adult, so I can just stay out for a night.
It’s not a big deal.
