Courtyard House: My Long and Hard Body Makes Me Play with All the Women in the Courtyard

The five of them were all stunned.

This was an undocumented training ground located on the thirteenth underground level. In the center of the image, the young people were sitting around a round table, their eyes filled with shock and anger.

Sitting opposite them was... another version of Xie Qingwu.

Unlike the previous ones, this Xie Qingwu was wearing a dark lab coat, looked exhausted, and had bloodshot eyes.

He looked at the five people quietly, his tone calm:

“I know you don’t want to believe me, but I’ll only say this once—you are not the only variable in this world.”

"The fate of each of you was predetermined from the very first day you entered here."

The video stopped.

The entire space fell into a brief silence.

then……

Lin Ruoyu turned to Ji Yan and whispered:

"Now, do you want to know the rest of the 'settings'?"

Ji Yan stared intently at the afterimage projected on the screen, his voice trembling slightly:

"The more I know, the more unbearable the consequences will be."

Lin Ruoyu smiled:

“Ji Yan, when you are willing to bear it—it means you are no longer the kind of person who only knows how to run away.”

A loud roar suddenly came from afar!

The data world is in turmoil, and cracks are spreading in the void!

The woman in white exclaimed, "Oh no! The system is starting to crash! Xie Qingwu won't just sit here and wait to die; he's definitely activated the self-destruct protocol! Evacuate from here immediately!"

Ji Yan did not move.

He looked at Lin Ruoyu, his eyes filled with complex emotions, as if he were making a decision he had been struggling with for a long time.

After a moment, he said:

Tell me the last answer.

Lin Ruoyu looked at him, her smile growing even gentler:

"Okay, but you'd better be prepared—because the real ending is just beginning."

At that moment, a door slowly opened in the darkness behind her.

A huge metal door engraved with symbols and incantations.

And from behind the door... came the sound of a child crying.

That was a cry that didn't belong to this world...

Ji Yan took a step forward, his voice calm yet unsettling, "Tell me, what's behind the door?"

Lin Ruoyu's gaze never left his eyes. "The truth."

"Don't listen to her nonsense!" Chenxi said urgently, pushing off the ground and rushing to Ji Yan's side. Her long hair flew wildly in the data storm, her eyes filled with anger and anxiety. "You know Xie Qingwu won't let anyone who leaks secrets get away with it! We have to leave now! Right now!"

“But we haven’t figured anything out.” Ji Yan replied calmly, his tone steady yet unwavering.

Lin Ruoyu looked at him and smiled, "You're right...we haven't even started yet."

"Stop pretending to know everything!" Chu Mo suddenly stood up, energy condensing into a blade in his hand, his eyes sharp. "If you really know the truth, then explain everything from beginning to end! Otherwise, you're just stalling for time—buying Xie Qingwu a chance to retaliate!"

Lin Ruoyu chuckled softly, a hint of pity in her eyes.

"You think I don't know what you're trying to say?" Her voice was so gentle it seemed to come from a distant past. "You always like to use anger to mask your fear... but you've always been afraid to face the truth, haven't you? Just like the B3 training accident five years ago."

Chapter 1101 A Strange Glimmer of Light

"Shut up!" Chu Mo's voice was almost hoarse.

Su Ting, standing to the side, remained silent, his eyes fixed on the door—the incantations on the door seemed to move as if alive, faintly emitting a strange light.

"How did you manage to come back alive?" Su Ting finally asked.

“That’s a good question.” Lin Ruoyu turned to look at him. “But you need to make sure you’re ready to listen.”

“I don’t care whether I’m ready or not,” Su Ting said through gritted teeth. “I just want the truth from you.”

Lin Ruoyu looked at him for a while before whispering, "Because I have never truly died."

The moment those words were spoken, the air froze.

Chenxi's eyes widened, her lips trembling: "What do you mean? Your file records that you... you've already disappeared during the mission! We saw the Rift devour you!"

“What you see isn’t necessarily the truth,” Lin Ruoyu sighed softly. “You think that’s the last time I’ll appear… but perhaps it’s the last piece of your collective memory. A truth that has been deliberately cut out.”

"Shut up!" The woman in white robes suddenly raised her cane, and a beam of light shot straight towards Lin Ruoyu!

But just as the beam of light approached her, the entire door suddenly swung open, and an indescribable force swept out—

The child's cries suddenly intensified, becoming heart-wrenching, as if they were coming from the depths of another universe.

Everyone took a few steps back, their faces showing surprise.

Only Lin Ruoyu remained unmoved.

She slowly raised her hand and said softly:

"The door is open."

Everyone looked over instinctively and saw a blood-red world faintly emerging from the deep crack in the door.

The ground was cracked like a tortoise shell, and in the distance stood a huge, dilapidated mechanical ruin. On one of the ruins...

A small figure was squatting there.

A little girl wearing an old-fashioned combat suit.

Ji Yan's pupils shrank sharply: "What is that...who's over there?"

A faint smile appeared on Lin Ruoyu's lips. "Why don't you go and see for yourself?"

Ji Yan walked step by step toward the door.

"Wait!" Chenxi grabbed his arm. "Are you crazy? We don't know what kind of monsters are hiding in there, how could you go in alone?!"

“You don’t understand.” Ji Yan shook his head. “I have to go in. I know… I must go in.”

Lin Ruoyu gently patted his shoulder: "Yes, we all had to leave sooner or later. It's just a pity that not everyone can handle it."

"Stop playing mysterious!" Chu Mo sneered. "Either you tell us what happened directly, or we'll blow up this damn door together, and nobody will know the so-called 'truth'!"

"Do you really want to destroy it?" Lin Ruoyu asked with a gentle smile.

Su Ting said in a low voice, "If we go in, will we be able to come back?"

Lin Ruoyu looked them over and then answered softly:

Whether you can go back... depends on how much you are willing to sacrifice for the truth.

The little girl stopped crying for a moment.

Then, she raised her face, revealing a blurry yet familiar face.

Ji Yan was stunned.

Chenxi gasped, "Impossible...this is impossible."

Lin Ruoyu smiled, but her eyes held a deep sorrow:

"Fate never moves in a straight line."

A childish voice came from inside the door, echoing throughout the entire space:

"Brother, you've finally come to find me."

The next moment, Ji Yan suddenly stepped through the crack in the door and disappeared.

"Ji Yan!!!" the group shouted.

Chapter 1102 This Damn Door

Lin Ruoyu turned to look at them, her eyes revealing a hint of tenderness and apology:

"He's waiting for you... Aren't you coming? Or are you planning to hide forever in the safety net woven by the past?"

An unknown sense of oppression filled the air.

Chu Mo clenched his fists, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. "Are we really going to go through this damned door with him?!"

Chenxi gritted her teeth, "Do we have any other choice?! Don't you want to know the truth?! What she said... is it true or false?!"

The woman in white robes looked at them coldly. "I can be sure of one thing. Once the door closes, you may never come back."

“But perhaps,” Su Ting suddenly stepped forward, his eyes resolute, “some stories shouldn’t end in the past.”

The wind swept through the space, causing slight fluctuations in the data.
