This time, the grand prize still used the body labeled 'the grand prize.' It was really quite insightful.

There could only be one villa owner for each villa. If, theoretically speaking, 'Ji Shanqing' was not considered an item, then one of them would have to continue being a drifter. Lin Sanjiu looked around the courtyard and suggested to the grand prize, "I'll go inside the house and find the safe, and you go to the entrance to check the nameplate?"

"No," the grand prize immediately vetoed. "I'll follow you, Sis."

"What about the two of them..."

Hakain's face was now exposed from the center of the floor as if the floor had swelled and a face had grown on the bulge. The short-haired woman sat in the cage, staring blankly at the pool.

"Take the cage inside, and this one inside the floor can't run away anyway." The grand prize was indeed unwilling to separate. Before they entered the villa together, he didn't forget to instruct Hakain, "Remove your ability."

"Okay, okay..." Hakain closed his eyes tightly and, after a while, said, "It's removed."

Lin Sanjiu was about to walk away when the grand prize grabbed her. He looked up at the villa and its partially open door.

"I said, remove your ability."

Hakain's facial muscles froze for several seconds. "You—I already—"

Ji Shanqing said nothing, just tilting his head at him.

Hakain's eye muscles twitched a few times. Finally, gritting his teeth, he spoke through the gaps, "I... I've removed it."

"Kevin in charge. Playback has been interrupted." A female voice came from inside the villa. "Data recording canceled."

It was a good thing he kept his guard up. Lin Sanjiu patted the grand prize's head, picked up the cage, and walked into the villa with him. The dumbbells hanging from the railing on the second floor had disappeared, and the kitchen, which was originally full of broken glass, had all disappeared without a trace. Everything had returned to its original state.

According to Hakain, there was a property ownership certificate in the study safe on the second floor. As long as they changed everyone's names to their own, the nameplate at the villa's entrance would naturally change as well. He didn't want to hand over the villa so easily, so the truthfulness of his words was yet to be determined. Thus, when Lin Sanjiu found the safe key in the small box on the study desk, she was slightly surprised.

"This guy didn't lie," she said and inserted the key into the lock, opening the safe. "Was he afraid that we would harm him if we left?"

Ji Shanqing didn't say anything, just stretched his neck behind the safe door to take a look. The safe was empty except for a thin white file bag near the bottom. Lin Sanjiu used the [Defense Forcefield] to protect her hand as she pulled out the papers from the file bag.

"Villa Ownership Certificate F05... Huh?"

She had originally thought the papers were individual pages, but when she opened the bag, she realized it was a long strip of paper folded many times. There were more than ten folds, each filled with dense text. When she finally unfolded it completely, it reached all the way to the ground. After searching for a while, they found the place where the names had to be changed, which was at the very end of the document.

After crossing out Hakain's name, the row of letters disappeared from the paper. Lin Sanjiu looked at it and was about to write but stopped. Then, she and Ji Shanqing looked at each other and said in unison, "I feel..."
