I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today Chapter 399 – Another Piece

Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Another Piece
Du Lai sneered, “I think you just don’t want to swap props! Once I gather ten pieces, you’ll come up with another excuse!”

Bai Youwei shrugged, “If you really think that way, that’s just boring. You know, I always keep my promises.”

Du Lai snorted coldly, bent down to pick up the jigsaw puzzle pieces on the coffee table, and put them back in his pocket.

“Bai Youwei, there’s a saying – ‘The heart of man is insatiable as a snake’, I advise you not to be too greedy. At the base right now, I dare say I am the only one who can bring out ten pieces.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Youwei curled her lips into a sweet smile, “Du Lai, it’s a wise man who knows the times. I’d advise you to read the room. Among all the people at the base right now, I dare say I’m the only one who can present these kinds of props.”

Du Lai:

He was filled with frustration. As he walked to the door, he stopped unwillingly as if he had a fierce internal struggle, then suddenly turned around and walked back!

“Would one more piece be enough?”

Du Lai took out the puzzles from his pocket, and from another pocket, another piece, aggressively placing it on the coffee table!

Snap!

“Eight pieces! I can’t give more!” Du Lai uttered indignantly, “Six have been used, two haven’t. These are all the pieces I have!”

“Deal”

Bai Youwei quickly grabbed the canvas bag and swept all the puzzle pieces on the coffee table into the bag.

Du Lai:

Why did he get the feeling that she had been waiting for him to raise the price?

Shen Mo picked up the Substitute Doll and gently tossed it to Du Lai, “Take it, the prop you wanted.”

“Eight puzzle pieces, and two of them haven’t been used, tsk tsk. Let me guess, you’ve gathered so many puzzle pieces, how did you do it? …The death of those players in the 21st game, is it your doing? Didn’t see that coming, you’ve got a malicious heart~” Bai Youwei stored the puzzle pieces away jokingly.

Du Lai’s expression darkened, with a hint of gloom in his eyes.

Perhaps considering there would be no testimony from the dead, he didn’t deny the accusation immediately. Instead, he mockingly smiled and gave a noncommittal reply:

“What could it have to do with me? Their deaths were due to their stupidity, regardless of whether they had puzzle pieces or not, the outcome would not have changed.”

“You seem to know something.” Shen Mo furrowed his eyebrows and examined him.

Du Lai gave a forced smirk, “I don’t know anything. The more you know, the faster you die. Even I understand such logic~”

He put away the Substitute Doll, waved casually at everyone inside the room, and said, “It’s been a pleasure doing business with you, goodbye~”

Du Lai left breezily and disappeared from sight quickly.

As soon as he was gone, Tan Xiao couldn’t help but blurt out, “Has this guy gone mad?! One puzzle piece wasn’t enough for him, he actually gave us two unused puzzle pieces! Two! Unused puzzle pieces! He just handed them over to us!”

Bai Youwei gave him a sidelong glance and laughed carelessly:

“He’s not crazy, nor is he stupid. He’s confident that he can retrieve his puzzle pieces. That’s why he dare to hand the puzzles to me.”

Tan Xiao was clueless, “What?”

Shen Mo spoke to everyone, “Lock the doors and windows tonight and rest in the puppet room. No one stays outside.”

“Leaving nothing outside?” Bai Youwei drawled, “Why don’t we leave something for this master thief to steal? It’s a rare opportunity for such a visit. He’ll be disappointed if we don’t prepare anything.”

Shen Mo felt a bit helpless, but not surprised. He would probably find it strange if she ever stopped causing mischief.

“What do you propose?” Shen Mo calmly asked.

Bai Youwei thought for a moment, “Hmm… a simple… welcome ceremony?”
