The night before the college entrance exam results were released, I redeemed my Peking University ad

There was a knock on the door.

A crisp click came from the door lock, and the heavy bulletproof door slowly slid open to the side.

Ji Bai lay motionless on the bed, his eyelids barely open as he casually glanced towards the door.

Then he raised an eyebrow.

A woman came in.

A very beautiful woman!

Wearing an extremely tailored, form-fitting black satin dress that accentuated her slender waist in a sharp and flamboyant way, the hem of the dress stopped just three inches above her knees, below which were a pair of long legs wrapped in ultra-thin black stockings.

She was wearing red stiletto heels.

Her blonde hair was neatly styled, with two wisps of hair hanging down at her temples. Her features were deep and striking, and her lips were painted a matte bright red.

Like a poisoned red rose, it looks beautiful and alluring, but a single touch could kill.

The woman's gaze swept across the entire room, finally landing on Ji Bai on the bed, and she raised an eyebrow with interest.

Ji Bai was also intrigued, so he sat up straight against the headboard and waited for the other person to speak.

As a result, the woman spoke with a perfect Beijing accent.

"Ji Bai, you really are fearless in the face of danger."

"In your Chinese parlance, 'Even if Mount Tai collapses before you, you remain unmoved,' am I right?"

"To be able to lie down and rest after being hijacked and imprisoned requires composure that would make one a remarkable person in any era."

Ji Bai raised an eyebrow.

The incongruity of a blond, blue-eyed foreigner speaking fluent Beijing dialect is even stronger than seeing a dwarf killer.

He leaned against the headboard, a half-smile playing on his lips: "You went to all this trouble, even defying the world, to hijack a commercial airliner full of innocent passengers and dump me on this godforsaken island... surely you're not trying to kill me, are you?"

The woman sat down in the chair in front of the desk, crossed her legs, and her black high heels with red soles swayed gently under the fluorescent light.

It's like a metronome.

"As expected of the Mathematics Emperor, his mind works so fast. I like talking to smart people; it saves me energy."

"So, I won't beat around the bush. As long as you cooperate with us, we'll provide whatever you need: a lab, funding, a team."

"Starting with a minimum of one billion US dollars in annual R&D funding, with no upper limit!"

"You can have anything you want, except for the fact that you can't leave this island!"

Ji Bai listened without commenting.

He looked down at the red marks on his wrist, then looked up at the woman's exquisite face, and suddenly smiled.

"The conditions are good."

"However, there's something I don't quite understand. With so many people on the plane watching you hijack the plane—over a hundred pairs of eyes—even if I defect to you, it won't be easy to explain this, will it?"

The woman laughed too.

"What's so hard to explain?"

She tilted her head slightly: "A commercial airliner crashed into the ocean, everyone on board perished, and the black box could not be recovered. Is this explanation sufficient?"

Ji Bai's heart sank slightly.

Enough!

To kidnap just one person, they even had to kill all the innocent passengers on the entire plane, leaving no room for leniency.

"So, from now on, I'm stuck on this wretched island for the rest of my life, serving you like a slave?"

"To outsiders, I'm already a dead man; to insiders, I'm just a research tool you've kept in captivity?"

"When are you squeezed dry, then are you buried?"

"Don't say such harsh things."

The woman stood up, walked a few steps away from Ji Bai, and stopped, looking down at him:

"It might not be for life. If you behave well and listen to others, you might get a chance to turn over a new leaf and start anew."

Ji Bai smiled.

A complete makeover?

In a physical sense, right?

His entire face was replaced, his identity erased, and even his past was wiped clean. From then on, there was no more Ji Bai in the world, only an obedient tool in their hands.

"You've thought of everything quite thoroughly."

Ji Bai curled his lip, looking indifferent: "I'll just ask you one question, who exactly are you?"

The woman didn't reply, but just smiled and reached out to tidy up the stray hairs at her temples.

"You have plenty of time to think it over, there's no rush."

After saying that, she turned and left. The sound of her high heels on the ground gradually faded away. The bulletproof door closed again, the sound of the lock being heavy and cold.

Looking at the closed door, Ji Bai's casual smile faded, and his eyes darkened.

The world is indeed not as simple as it seems.

What ordinary people see is probably just the tip of the iceberg!

……

As darkness fell, the sea breeze outside the window picked up even more fiercely.

Just as Ji Bai was pondering how to turn the tables in the next simulation, the door lock clicked again.

Ji Bai thought that the woman had come to persuade him to surrender again, but when the door opened, a young Chinese girl walked in.

The girl had fair skin, a soft, baby-like face, and big, round eyes that made her look harmless.

She wore a classic black and white maid outfit, with layers of lace trim on the collar and apron. The puff sleeves barely covered her shoulders, and the white apron around her waist was cinched tightly, making her slender waist stand out.

The skirt was very short, barely covering the top of her thighs, and below were two straight and shapely long legs wrapped in semi-transparent black stockings.

Down the calves were a pair of small black leather shoes with low heels, so they made no sound when they stepped on the ground.

What's most remarkable is the size of her body, which makes her apron bulge slightly; it's hard to tell whether it's due to innate divine physique or acquired effort.

The girl was carrying an exquisite white porcelain plate with delicate dishes on it, all of which were authentic Chinese food.

A bowl of clear stewed lion's head meatballs, a plate of Longjing shrimp, a plate of lotus root stir-fry, a bowl of white rice with a few black sesame seeds sprinkled on top, and a pair of ebony chopsticks neatly placed on a porcelain chopstick rest next to it.

The girl, carrying a tray, walked slowly to Ji Bai, her black Mary Jane shoes making a crisp clattering sound on the cement floor.

Then... she slowly knelt down.

It wasn't a forced, humiliating kneeling, but a natural and elegant movement, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

Knees together, body slightly turned to the side, back straight, arms steadily lifting the tray until it is just level with chest.

The girl seemed a little shy, yet also somewhat coy, her voice soft and sweet:

"Master, from now on, I will take care of your daily needs!"

"Now, please enjoy your meal!"

Ji Bai was stunned on the spot.

No, you should have said so earlier if there was such a hidden condition!

Why didn't you say anything this morning at the auditorium entrance?

You should have said so earlier!

Why didn't you say so sooner!

You should have said so sooner!

Ji Bai subconsciously swallowed, looking at the girl's upturned face and the dazzling curve in front of her...

Since that's the case, then I won't hold back!

Just as Ji Bai reached out, a cold system notification suddenly rang in his mind:

[Ding! The Final Destination prediction period has expired; ten hours have passed!]

Gan!

Ji Bai's outstretched hand suddenly stopped.

The most crucial moment has arrived?
