Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Solve the misunderstanding (1)

The person in the memory had exactly the same face as Chi Xin and was from the original body.
Chi Xin struggled to identify everybody until she finally recognized herself in the crowd. Among humans and zombies, Chi Xin's face was clean but showed an exaggerated panicked and frightened expression, which made Chi Xin somewhat envious.

She had never seen such an expression on herself.

She soon realized this scene was when the original Chi Xin had abandoned Yu Xiang in a tide of corpses. After Jiang Congyun had rescued him and found him medicine, she had stolen her credit; the original Chi Xin had accompanied the unconscious Yu Xiang only to be regarded as his savior afterward.

Ah, was that what the Zombie King was calling a gift? Wow, so generous.

When this misunderstanding in the movie had been revealed, it had been accompanied by a few simple flashbacks. Now was the first time Chi Xin was witnessing the whole incident and as she watched it with gusto, she couldn't help but curse the screenwriter's logic.

Even if Yu Xiang hadn't known who had saved him, the original Chi Xin had managed to take the credit? Had the others just listened to Yu Xiang and never doubted it a single moment? No character had felt there had been any problem...

Seeing her teammates' shocked expressions, Chi Xin mentally prepared herself for the upcoming accusations. Although this incident had been exposed later in the movie, it had now happened and she shouldn't be afraid.

After all, she wasn't really the one who had abandoned Yu Xiang.

But after spending some time with him, she had realized Yu Xiang really valued her savior. Chi Xin couldn't help but be disappointed to not be able to quarrel with him in the future.
She quickly came back to her senses. She was still tied up to the troublesome system and it would be better for her to not get too genuinely attached to these characters.

Chi Xin mentally got ready and drafted a few speeches in her heart. She should be able to respond to any questions and disappointment from her team.

Everything should be fine.

But as she calmed herself down, the system sounded.

[Ding! Ding! The system has detected the host has made a serious mistake. The host did not grasp the perfect opportunity to cause trouble and will be deducted 30 points as a warning.]

[I repeat, the host has been deducted 30 points of trouble value as a warning.]

Chi Xin was shocked. Her ears started ringing and she wondered if it was an echo from the system's notification. And she didn't know whether she was imagining it or not, but she could swear she could hear gloating and excitement from the dog system's tone.

She inhaled deeply and looked at her points. Two bright red numbers flashed in her mind: 55.
Chi Xin's eyes darkened. Her indifferent expression suddenly changed and became slightly grim.

Chi Xin: I will kill this system.

When the others were done going through the memory, they all looked at Chi Xin with complex expressions, only to become stunned when they saw her murderous mood.

Yu Xiang hesitated: "Chi Xin, this Lou Chen distorted the memory. We didn't want to see that, calm down."

Chi Xin's angry figure froze: "Distorted the memory?"

"This can only be fake." Chen Xing scratched his head, "How can only a few zombies be enough to scare Sister Chi?"

Chi Xin was startled again.
