"Congratulations," Lu Shi offered his congratulations.

Wang Zijian then rambled on on the phone for a long time, but fortunately, none of the content was classified.

As for Jiahao's metaphysical abilities, Wang Zijian had already discussed them with Lu Shi.

"Senior Brother Shi, let me tell you, the senior who led me through this simulated horror was really amazing." Wang Zijian then said many good things about that senior.

But the more Lu Shi listened to those words, the more he sensed something was amiss.

Normally speaking, although Wang Zijian is young and impulsive, he also understands some boundaries.

This kind of behavior—lavishly praising one person in front of another—will at most last a few words before changing the subject.

But Wang Zijian's behavior now seems to have crossed the line.

However, it's understandable. When young people are faced with something they love, they often don't care whether others like it or not, and they can talk endlessly about it.

"Most importantly, senior is so beautiful—" Wang Zijian's words betrayed his true feelings, and Lu Shi caught him. "Oh, I see!" Lu Shi suddenly said with a smile.

Wang Zijian suddenly realized what was happening.

"No, no, Senior Brother Shi, don't misunderstand!" Wang Zijian stammered as he said this, revealing the boy's true feelings.

As a teenager who had just come of age, Wang Zijian met a powerful senior, and with the senior's help and guidance, he completed a simulated horror game and mastered metaphysical abilities.

In the world of teenagers, this is the beauty of the world.

"Enjoy your youth, young man," Lu Shi said with a smile as he hung up the phone.

After suppressing his smile, Lu Shi tried to contact Xiao Chen again, but Xiao Chengzi answered the phone.

"Uncle Lu, Dad and Mom are packing up. They're taking Xiao Chengzi swimming today."

"Really? Has Little Orange learned to swim yet?" Lu Shi was quite patient with human cubs, after all, he was just a cub himself.

After the conversation, Lu Shi had achieved his goal.

It's pretty much certain that Xiao Chen was not involved in Captain Fu's affairs.

But that's normal. Captain Fu seems steady, but he's actually quite stubborn.

He is the kind of person who silently shoulders responsibility, and even if his shoulders are crushed, he will not complain of pain.

Such people, given a choice, will never ask for help; instead, they will silently bear everything on their own.

That is why he is unlikely to drag others down with him.

After thinking it over, Lu Shi realized that if he wanted to get involved in this matter, he would need to approach it from another angle.

"The company's clues and the mole within the metaphysics society." Lu Shi didn't know much about the company, so the focus should be on the mole.

Unlike Captain Fu, Lu Shi had some additional information about this.

"In the previous timeline, the main forces dealing with Zhou Jianye came from Team Three and Team Two, and the deputy director was also mobilized."

"When the Metaphysics Society held its internal meetings, the atmosphere seemed rather strange."

Lu Shi pondered the situation back then. When one's own people were killed as sacrifices, the emotions that should have been anger and shared hatred were the same.

However, at that time, some people had somber faces, but it was hard to say why.

"Take it slow. As Captain Fu makes his moves, that person will inevitably slip up." Lu Shi wasn't in a hurry, after all, time was on his side.

In this situation, it's best to improve yourself gradually first, and then use that time to acquire more information.

"Meanwhile, the offerings seem to be getting impatient too." Lu Shi opened WeChat, and Lu Yaoyao sent another message in the chat interface.

Lu Shi has been busy with simulated horror these past two days and hasn't paid much attention to his younger sister.

It's understandable that she couldn't wait after waiting for more than two days.

When faced with superpowers, many people find it difficult to remain calm and focused.

"You're still a student; you should pretend you didn't see anything unusual."

"Just attend classes at school obediently." Lu Shi sent two messages to reassure the sacrificial offering, and then began to think about the simulated horror of the [Failed New Year's Eve].

The first thing to do is to figure out what the fear behind the mystical concept of "failed New Year's Eve" is.

The fear of being abandoned by time? The loneliness and panic of being left behind on the other side of time? The unease felt about the changing of time, the "indicator" that maintains the normalcy of life?

At the end of the year, looking back, I find that I have accomplished nothing and am unable to face the coming year. I am filled with fear of failure in life.

Or perhaps it's because they can't face the future, lack the courage to move forward, and have a fear of the future?

Lu Shi himself was a little unsure.

It feels like there are many fears involved in failing to celebrate the New Year, but no single fear can fully describe the fear of failing to celebrate the New Year.

"So even for everyday simulated horror, I need to test it multiple times." After thinking it over, Lu Shi finally settled on a preliminary plan.

When the Three Killings are present in one's destiny, a dark complexion on the forehead mainly indicates alienation.

However, this alienation is not directed at oneself, but at the target.

A dark spot on the forehead can severely damage a person's physical and mental health, as well as their luck.

"Because the scheduling is 2+, plus the temporary boost from the failed New Year's Eve event, I might be able to precisely control the darkening of my forehead, causing it to have a specific effect on my mind —"

Lu Shi sensed Lu Yaoyao's location and found that she was not too far away.

Then, by using his bloodline, he activated the darkening of his forehead.

Lu Yaoyao, who was strolling around the neighborhood, heard a special ringtone and immediately took it out.

Upon seeing the message from that person, I immediately curled my lip.

"What's wrong with you?!" Lu Yaoyao typed quickly on her phone, then pressed send.

However, at that very moment, Lu Yaoyao felt a moment of disorientation.

As the daze subsided, Lu Yaoyao followed her previous actions and sent the message, only to find that the sent message had a timestamp, and there was a two or three-minute difference between the time the message was received and the time the message was sent.

Lu Yaoyao was stunned, somewhat disbelieving that so much time had passed in the blink of an eye.

A sense of panic arose in my heart from the feeling of "losing time".

However, Lu Shi's subsequent words, that one should pretend not to see anything abnormal, helped Lu Yaoyao suppress her fear.

Meanwhile, Lu Shi immediately received feedback.

A small trace of fear was swallowed up by the "failed New Year's Eve celebration," resulting in a very subtle improvement.

But it did bring about improvements.

"Everything I started pointed to a fear of time, which seems to contribute to the failure of the New Year's Eve celebration."

Lu Shi silently summarized the changes and insights he gained from this initial trial.

"Fortunately, the darkening of the forehead has some effect on the mind, which can change a person's subjective perception of time."

"Otherwise, it's not so easy to make people fear time."
