Su Shi opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, and Xiangzi sighed tiredly at this time. She closed her eyes and spoke weakly after half-falling back.

"Mu, if you insist on thinking so, then go away, leave here."

"Xiang... don't you want me anymore?"

"You don't even think we're equals. How can I continue to get along with you like before?! How can I do that?!"

Mu's voice ignited Toyokawa Shoko's anger, making her unable to help but roar. Mu was stunned for a moment and lowered her head. She stood there for a long time before slowly nodding and silently turned away.

...She did something wrong again. This time Xiang really didn't want her anymore. So where else could she go?

Ruo Ye Mu walked out of the house, thinking this silently, when she suddenly felt something warm flowing across her cheek. She subconsciously touched it and saw wet marks on her palm.

Is she...crying?

Ruo Ye Mu still didn't understand why this happened, but she no longer had the desire to explore. After closing her eyes, she felt herself completely plunged into darkness. The blue silk thread that belonged to Xiang and was hanging on her limbs broke, causing her to be pulled down by the blood.

Above the night sky, the quietly shining Aldebaran bears witness to the doll girl's despair.

Chapter 110 Unexpected Situations

Nothing matters anymore, and I don’t need to care about anything.

Ruo Yemu walked aimlessly on the road. Her cell phone seemed to ring several times, but she no longer had the energy to care. Now she just wanted to indulge in this real pain.

Xiang... didn't want her anymore, and she had done something wrong again. Although she didn't even know where she was wrong, she must have committed a serious mistake, otherwise Xiang wouldn't be so angry.

From now on, she will only be a puppet of her parents. Her fate will remain the same as at the beginning. She doesn't have to think about anything, just let the silk strings pull to control the movements of her limbs.

Ruo Ye Mu's dead gaze fell on a sharp iron spike beside her, and at this moment, an unprecedented impulse suddenly appeared in her heart, which should have been empty.

...Since it has come to this tragic situation, it seems that there is no value in her existence. Xiang does not need her, and it seems that her continued existence will only hurt others, so why not rebel one last time?

Although she has a special physique, she has occasionally heard her parents mention that as long as her brain is damaged, then even if the injury can be repaired, her consciousness will disappear. At that time, she will even lose her human body and become a lump of meat that relies only on instinct.

This is actually a good ending. After all, she has never been a human being. It is meaningless to live hypocritically as a human being. Let her die like this.

Finally, after pointing her head at the iron spike, Ruo Yemu closed her eyes. She gathered her strength slightly and prepared to start accelerating and sprint, letting the iron spike pierce her brain.

"Xiao Mu, you were originally here."

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. Ruo Yemu paused in his steps, and a feeling of sadness filled his heart. He sighed and turned his head expressionlessly to look at Toyokawa Nobuo who was driving beside him.

"Mr. Toyokawa,"

"Your parents have been contacting you. Something unexpected happened at the banquet, right?

It’s a little hard to hear, but that’s no reason not to answer their calls.”

Toyokawa Nobuo smiled.

"I'm sure your father is furious right now, and you'll probably suffer again when you return... but you shouldn't care about that anymore, right?"

"Mr. Toyokawa, do you just want to chat with me?"

Ruoye Mu didn't care about what he said at all and just wanted to end the conversation quickly so that she could get rid of the curse of life. At this time, Nobuo Toyokawa narrowed his eyes slightly at her expression, then patted the co-pilot.

"Get in the car first, I want to take you somewhere."

"I dont go,"

Ruo Yemu was no longer interested in wasting time. She shook her head and turned to face the iron spike. She took a small step forward at a good angle.

"Are you really not going? Maybe you'll meet someone who loves you."

Toyokawa Nobuo spoke softly, but the word he mentioned made Wakaba Mu pause. She frowned and turned to look at him, her voice extremely cold.

"fraud,"

"Whether I've lied to you or not is up to you to verify. Besides, judging from your appearance, I'm afraid even Xiangzi doesn't want you anymore. In that case, what's the harm in wasting a little time?"

Toyokawa Nobuo shrugged.

"Come with me. If you fail, I won't care about you anymore. You can end your life then. If you don't come with me, I will stop you now."

"..."

Wakaba Mutsu silently opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. Toyokawa Nobuo also smiled and continued driving. Soon he took Wakaba Mutsu to a remote warehouse. There were many armed personnel around who were vigilant. When they saw Toyokawa Nobuo, they nodded respectfully.

He pushed open the door with Ruoye Mu, and what came into her sight was a group of women lined up in a queue. Her delicate appearance was inconspicuous among them. At this time, they also quietly accepted the instructions of the management staff, and walked forward one by one to look through a book with a soft Latin prayer. The title on the cover was "The King in Yellow".

"The wondrous night when the black star rises, the wondrous moon that the night allows, but even more wondrous is the lost Carl...ah!"

A beautiful woman nervously recited the words from the book in a low voice, but the next moment she was bounced away by an invisible force and fell heavily to the ground.

"It's not her either,"

Nobuo Toyokawa sighed, and the people around him came forward as usual to drag her to the other side, waving their hands to signal the next one to come forward.

"What are you doing?"

Wakaba Mu asked softly, and Toyokawa Nobuo's expression immediately became pious. He raised his hand and made a prayer gesture, then smiled at Mu.

"We are currently selecting a bride for the Lord. If Ye Mu, I brought you here for this very reason, and you share the same purpose, then you might be favored by Him. Although the possibility is very small... we cannot ignore it until we are certain."

"I see,"

Mu nodded, but deep down he was convinced that a puppet like him could not possibly be liked by any noble being, so he continued to ask calmly,

"So where do I fit in?"

"Over there, after all, you are the last one here."

Toyokawa Nobuo indicated the direction, and when Wakaba Mu turned around, he saw a charming woman holding a fan. Her indescribable beauty made Mu stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but look at Toyokawa Nobuo in confusion.

"Why did you ask me to come when you have such a beautiful person?"

"She is naturally extremely beautiful in the eyes of us mortals, but the Lord's preferences are never something we can guess. Just go ahead and line up."

"it is good,"

Since he said so, Ruoye Mu nodded indifferently. She walked to the side of the woman with the fan, and she also looked at Mu with a smile, her voice very soft,

"Hello, are you here to attend this ceremony as well?"

"Ah."

"You don't seem to be looking forward to it. Are you being forced?"

"not at all."

"Then why are you here? Some important reason?"

“I just came here to participate.”

"Just coming here to participate..."

The fan woman was slightly startled when she heard Ruoye Mu's answer. She repeated Ruoye Mu's words, then raised the corner of her mouth in amusement.

"I dare say you're the only two people here who don't care about this ceremony. You know, although the other women know nothing about the true situation here, they all want to gain wealth and glory through this. Don't you care about this either?"

"Ah."

Ruoye Mu nodded slightly, and then the atmosphere became awkward for a moment. The woman played with her fan and waited for her question, but after a while, there was only silence, and she couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

"Aren't you curious about who the other person is who doesn't care about rituals?"

"not give a damn about."

"...You are such a weird person."

The woman was silent for a while and then she laughed, and Ruo Yemu just stared at her quietly. That charming and captivating face could not arouse any psychological fluctuation in her. The woman with the fan could only shake her head at her wooden look and turned to look at the team whose turn it was.

"Ah, it's my turn now. I wonder if I have the honor of becoming the Lord's bride."

She smiled expectantly, looked up at Aldebaran in the night sky, walked forward, opened the book, and gently touched the yellow mark on the cover with her white fingertips.

"The Hyades' song is unknown, the king's tattered clothes are blown by the wind, my soul can no longer sing, my song is no longer flowing like tears, only dryness and silence remain, lost Carcosa."

"..."

The King in Yellow remained silent, neither pushing her away nor responding. This unprecedented reaction made everyone stunned, and they looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

"Oh, are you angry?"

"boom,"

In the silence, the woman with the fan looked at the yellow mark and suddenly chuckled, and then the book suddenly exploded, and the fragments of the pages swirled and flew under the invisible force, and the star Aldebaran reflected in the skylight suddenly burst into light. Toyokawa Nobuo and the others knelt down to pray in panic, and at the same time, a tall figure in a yellow robe and a pale mask slowly appeared in front of the woman with the fan.

The figure seemed to speak, but no one could hear any sound. The women who were nearby seemed to have heard something accidentally, and then they suddenly widened their eyes in horror, picked up the sharp objects nearby and stabbed them into their ears. With blood flowing, they kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Don't take it so seriously. I'm just here for some fun. It's your fault that all your followers have found Shanghai."

But there was no fear on the beautiful face of the woman with the fan. She explained softly and casually. In the light, Ruo Yemu seemed to see her body blurred for a moment, revealing a hideous and grotesque bloated shadow.

"Alright, alright, I'm leaving now. It was just a joke. Look at you, you're so precious about choosing a bride from among ants. You're the only one I know with this quirk."

The figure in yellow robe stood quietly, while the woman with the fan shrugged helplessly. She looked up at the brightly shining Aldebaran, shrugged in compromise, and patted Toyokawa Nobuo's shoulder lightly before leaving, causing his body to stiffen instantly.

"Goodbye, Mr. Fengchuan, thank you very much for your invitation. Let's meet again next time if you are free.

Come find me? I won't be leaving Japan anytime soon."

"..."

Nobuo Toyokawa tried hard to suppress the fear that was about to swallow him, and nodded tremblingly. The woman smiled with satisfaction, waved gently to Wakaba Mutsu, and turned to leave.

When her figure completely disappeared, Toyokawa Nobuo dared to raise his head. He saw the yellow-robed figure and quickly stood up and bowed deeply. He managed to squeeze out a voice with fear,

"Lord, please forgive me..."

Before he could finish his words, his body was lifted up by an invisible force, and in the blink of an eye, the pale mask appeared in front of him. In an instant, Nobuo Toyokawa felt that a suffocating and terrifying phantom covered his vision, and it seemed as if hundreds of strange and terrifying sounds came to his ears, making his brain so painful that it was about to collapse.

"Lord, I'm sorry, we were wrong. We will be more careful next time. We will never, ever make such a mistake again..."

Nobuo Toyokawa tried his best to suppress the urge to scream wildly, his face distorted as he forced himself to squeeze out a trembling and collapsing voice. His body convulsed and trembled in mid-air, and he was in as much pain as a tiny insect on the verge of death.

"..."

The yellow-robed figure just stared at him, without doing anything else, nor letting him go. Just when Toyokawa Nobuo's spirit was about to fall into madness, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Wakaba Mutsu, who still had an expressionless face, and then disappeared in an instant without any warning.

Nobuo Toyokawa's body fell heavily to the ground, screaming and twitching. The people around him were too panicked to step forward to help. After his screams finally subsided, the doctors carefully stepped forward to check and finally confirmed that he should not be in danger of life.

"Cough cough cough..."

Nobuo Toyokawa coughed up blood while trembling. After he finally regained consciousness, he breathed in deep gulps of fresh air with great gratitude, feeling the joy of surviving the disaster.

"Thank God for His forgiveness, thank God for His mercy, we will never have a next time..."

After recovering from his shock, he saw the King in Yellow next to him had recovered and he immediately knelt down to pray until his knees were numb. He then carefully stood up again and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the Lord was not going to punish him again.

"Mr. Toyokawa, we're here... What happened?"

At this time, Mu's parents had also arrived. They were stunned when they saw the mess at the scene. Nobuo was in no mood to explain to them and waved his hands impatiently.

"There was a small accident during the ceremony... You guys stay and clean up. I need to go back and rest."

"Yes, we will definitely clean it up."

They nodded repeatedly, but when they saw Wakaba Mu standing quietly beside them, they suddenly felt annoyed. Wakaba Ryohei quickly walked up to her and wanted to slap her.

"Damn it, how dare you not answer the phone? Who gave you the courage..."

Wakaba Mutsu closed his eyes nonchalantly, and at the same time, the "King in Yellow" next to him suddenly trembled. Noticing this, Toyokawa Nobuo widened his eyes and desperately exerted his last bit of strength to grab Wakaba Ryohei's arm.

"Stop it! Have you forgotten where this place is? How dare you act so barbarically in the sight of the Lord?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Toyokawa."

After being yelled at by him, Liang Ping nervously shook his head quickly, but Toyokawa Nobuo had no time to pay attention to him. Instead, he quickly glanced at the "King in Yellow" and relaxed only after confirming that it had no unusual movements. At the same time, he glanced at Wakaba Mu out of the corner of his eye and had some guesses in his heart.

"Even if something unexpected happens during the ceremony, the Lord may still be able to choose a bride from among these people. Miss Ruoye will stay here tonight and rest. You cannot do anything to her. Do you understand?"

"Ah? You mean she might be... But how can this experimental subject match..."

Wakaba Ryohei subconsciously wanted to deny it, but after being glared at by Toyokawa Nobuo, he swallowed his words. He nodded repeatedly with a forced smile, but Mu didn't care about what had happened so far. He just walked up to Nobuo and asked softly,

"Can I leave now?"

"I'm sorry, but you have to wait one more night. Only one night, I promise."

Nobuo Toyokawa looked at the girl in front of him and carefully made his tone more polite.

"After all, a lot has happened today, Miss Ruoye. For the sake of your health, I suggest you go to bed early."

Chapter 111 The Yellow Bride

Ruoye Mu seemed to see a dilapidated tower, under which was a gloomy and depressing city, with a quiet lake covering his head, and everything was hazy.
