Chapter 602: Fated Games at the Amusement Park

Book: Chapter 602: The Turn of Tides (Update 5)

Jinjiang Amusement Park. Lin

Early in the morning, as the park just opened, Xiao Yu – clad head-to-toe in white – stepped in following the crowd.

Along the way, he was brutally ogled by countless onlookers.

How fortunate he was to have been born in a harmonious era.

Had it been the matriarchal era, those pretty ladies and bratty girls would have reduced him to nothing.

But you can’t really blame anyone else.

After all, who told you to dress so flamboyantly?

Anyone who caught sight of Xiao Yu at that moment would truly understand what it means to be a pretty boy.

Standing over 1.8 meters tall with a well-toned body and dazzling looks, he was breathtakingly handsome.

Dressed in a perfectly tailored white suit, he was not only as refreshing as a spring breeze but also as stately as a graceful tree.

Most visitors at the park were young, with plenty of women around.

And they couldn’t help but notice such an incredibly handsome guy.

Even if they couldn’t have him, simply glancing his way was enough to quench their longing.

But Xiao Yu wasn’t so sure.

As the saying goes,

When a woman wears red, her passion is bound to flare.

But a man in white is either a mama’s boy or gay.

Xiao Yu silently shed a tear…

27. He did indeed come alone.

In line with the note inside the Rubik’s Cube, he even dressed entirely in white.

There was no secret backup, no covert surveillance, and certainly no ambush.

Xiao Yu ventured into Jinjiang Amusement Park all by himself.

Wang Dong and the entire Team Two saw nothing amiss.

At National Security, it was common knowledge that Team 10 was the strongest.

Even though Team 10 had only one leader—a lone commander—

but…

Xiao Yu’s combat prowess could singlehandedly take on all of Group Nine.

His intellect left the group leaders miles behind.

Be it through schemes, tactics, or brute force,

if even Xiao Yu couldn’t handle it, who could?

Didn’t you say you were searching for the strongest? With a radiant smile, Xiao Yu strolled leisurely through the park.

Here I come!

…

Jinjiang Amusement Park was enormous.

As Magic City’s first large-scale modern amusement park,

it spanned 170 acres and boasted over 40 attractions, perfect for visitors of all ages.

Legend had it that the ‘Ferris Wheel of Love’

had its origins with the park’s very own Ferris wheel.

That Ferris wheel had been turning for a full 20 years!

“When you get a chance, you must bring Sister Qingwu here to have some fun!”

Xiao Yu grinned broadly as he looked at the towering Ferris wheel, his joy shining through.

He would never forget that fateful kiss with Mu Qingwu on Bincheng’s Ferris wheel!

Suddenly,

“Uncle, this is for you,”

a childish voice chimed in beside him.

Looking down, Xiao Yu saw a little girl, barely five or six years old.

She was angelic—more beautiful than an angel—a little princess straight out of a fairy tale.

Xiao Yu was momentarily stunned.

The girl was holding a woman’s hand at that moment.

With her other tiny hand, she offered him a little box.

Taken by such an adorable child, Xiao Yu’s eyes twinkled. He knelt down with a smile, “Little sister, why are you giving your big brother this little box?”

“An uncle told me to give it to you,” she replied.

Blinking her big, innocent eyes, she looked up at Xiao Yu. “Big brother, you’re so handsome.”

“Really?”

Taking the box, Xiao Yu teased, “When you grow up, marry my son, okay? He’s bound to be handsome too.”

“This…”

The little girl tilted her head and, as seriously as an adult, nodded, “If big brother is this handsome, then little brother must be handsome too. As long as he isn’t mischievous, I’ll marry him.”

Xiao Yu’s smile froze.

He stared blankly at the little girl before him.

She clearly looked only five or six.

Yet Xiao Yu already imagined that when she grew up, she wouldn’t be any less stunning than Mu Qingwu.

Of course, that wasn’t the point—the real question was…

“Why did you assume it had to be a little brother and not a little sister?”

Xiao Yu asked earnestly.

“You’re silly, big brother,”

the little girl giggled, “You’re so much younger than my mom! Your child would be little too—definitely a little brother.”

Such a clever child… Xiao Yu grinned even wider. “How about a pinky promise? When you grow up, you must marry my Mu Mu, okay?”

“Alright,”

the little girl extended her tiny, rosy finger, linking pinkies with Xiao Yu.

“Pinky promise…”

“…and may it never change for a hundred years!”

Holding the little box, he watched as the mother and daughter slowly faded from view.

Especially as he kept glancing at the little girl, Xiao Yu was left deep in thought.

He felt an indescribable sensation.

It all felt destined!

“I wonder what it could be?”

Lowering his head, Xiao Yu stared coldly at the box as he opened it.

Inside lay a note and a pill.

The note read: ‘Swallow the pill and let the game begin!’

Just then,

【Ding! Case triggered successfully.】

【Police God Case check-in initiated.】

【Host, would you like to check in?】

Heh… Xiao Yu chuckled.

System tasks may be delayed, but they never miss a beat.

Check-in!

【Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in to the case!】

【System Reward: Ability Unlocked – Trap Expert!】

【New Mission: Solve the Rubik’s Cube Maze Case!】

【Time Limit for the Case: 57,030 days!】

【Complete the mission within the time limit to earn an additional system skill: Seal’s Dive!】

【Fail the mission within the time limit and your granted system abilities will be revoked!】

【Mission countdown commenced…】

A tidal wave of information crashed into him, leaving Xiao Yu no time to react as it forcefully imprinted itself deep into his memory.

A myriad of trap-setting techniques—physical, virtual, verbal, and mental—surged through his mind like an unstoppable tide.

It took a full minute for him to snap back, visibly shocked.

Eight words echoed in his mind.

The power of traps is terrifying!

Shaking off his doubts, Xiao Yu didn’t hesitate to grab the pill from the box and swallow it.

It immediately activated two system skills: Mongoose Stomach and Opossum’s Remedy.

What poison in this world could ever kill him?

The answer was none!

But then… Xiao Yu suddenly jolted, a wave of dizziness overtaking him as shock spread across his face.

In his mind he fumed, ‘Why am I the first to go? Is it because I’m too handsome?’

No, it wasn’t the poison—drugs simply didn’t work on him.

This was clearly a sedative… and Xiao Yu collapsed to the ground.

A total turn of events?
