Teleportations — I Wanna Be An Online Celebrity

Chapter 204 Eat Poison

Just as the two of them were in the midst of a happy conversation, they suddenly heard a whooshing sound. They were both startled and turned around, and saw something on the floor, rolling toward them.

Thinking about the disgusting place they were in, they guessed that Chu Tianjiao, the pervert, must be playing some trick on them again. Both of them did not act rashly. Ever since Tang Xia heard the sound, she kept on looking around, to see if there were anyone or anything peculiar in the vicinity.

She only saw a shadow pass by very quickly. It seemed that person’s reflexes were very quick. By the time Tang Xia looked up, she could only see her ankle, before she disappeared into the darkness.

Tang Xia watched the person leave, and the surroundings turned silent. She turned around and looked at the thing, the person had thrown at them. Pearl did not dare to go forward as well. She stayed rooted on the spot, and looked at it from afar.

Tang Xia focused her eyes and observed it carefully, as she slowly stepped closer towards it. She felt that it was extremely possible for Chu Tianjiao to throw a bomb at them. After all, Chu Tianjiao’s brain was really abnormal. He was a true pervert.

Tsk, what a waste for such a beautiful face. Why was it given to such an immoral and despicable person? She suddenly felt that these two words were specially tailored for him.

Tang Xia slowly got near to the thing and took a look. It seemed to be a bottle. It was probably not anything like a bomb, at all. She turned and looked at Pearl. Pearl was dumbfounded, and came forward to take a look too.

Tang Xia stretched out her hand and picked up the bottle. Pearl cautioned for her to be careful, and Tang Xia waved her hand.

“Eh? This seems like a tiny white ball…it’s medicine! There’s also a note.”

Pearl came forward and took a clearer look. At this moment, Tang Xia also realized that that thing was really a pill. There was also a note.

In order to prevent Chu Tianjiao that pervert, from doing anything, Tang Xia and Pearl pinched their noses. Tang Xia held the bottle in one hand and made Pearl open the cap with one hand. After all, what if there was some poisonous gas inside? They were both weak women incapable of fighting it. It would be game over for them immediately.

There seemed to be nothing unusual. Tang Xia and Pearl were relieved. They took out the note first, and Pearl took the bottle. Tang Xia unfolded the note, and read out its contents softly.

“No matter who eats the medicine, both will be able to leave.”

Tang Xia was instantly confused. What medicine? Why were they able to leave after eating it?

Tang Xia scrutinized the bottle carefully. Chu Tianjiao obviously had sent someone to deliver this bottle, which meant that he must have had some perverted idea up his sleeve, again. Suddenly, she thought of the box. “This medicine…what kind of medicine could it be…?”

Just when Tang Xia was still feeling confused, Pearl suddenly snatched the bottle away from her. She held onto the pill tightly, and looked nervously at Tang Xia.

Tang Xia did not have time to react at all. She only felt the medicine in her hand was gone in a flash. She looked at Pearl in confusion. “What’s wrong? Pearl, is there anything wrong with this medicine?”

She had never seen Pearl reacting in such a strange way before, and she was even more confused, about the use of the medicine.

Pearl was also panicking, as she held onto the pill. She did not want to hold onto it, nor did she want throw it away. The dilemma on her face showed clearly, that she knew something about it.

Tang Xia stepped forward and held onto Pearl’s arms. Pearl looked up suddenly, seemingly afraid that Tang Xia would take it away from her. Seeing Pearl’s reaction, Tang Xia’s gaze was even more firm.

“What is this? You know what it is, right?”

Pearl kept quiet and did not speak. She shut her eyes tightly and pursed her lips. Tang Xia’s eyebrows lifted, seemed like this was the only way.

Tang Xia snatched away the medicine in her hand. Pearl was startled and immediately chased after it. However, Pearl’s body was much smaller than Tang Xia’s. Hence, she could only watch Tang Xia take out the pill.

“If you don’t tell me, I’m going to eat it right away. Anyway, no matter who eats it, both of us will be able to get out!”

Pearl did not expect her to do this. She watched Tang Xia slowly put the pill towards her mouth and shouted immediately, “You can’t eat that!”

Tang Xia was startled by her scream, but responded very quickly. Seeing how scared Pearl was, she asked, “Then tell me, what is this thing?”

Pearl remained silent, and Tang Xia tried to scare her again, and again, wanted to put it in her mouth. Pearl quickly grabbed her hand and said, “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”

Tang Xia calmly waited for her to explain.

“After taking this medicine…you will become like the maids…”

Tang Xia was instantly dumbfounded. Pearl had been here for quite some time. She would definitely be aware of what this medicine could do.

But…she looked at the pill in her hand, and suddenly became silent. She was deeply shocked for a moment. So this was why the maids looked as if they were controlled by someone. It was due to this medicine. She looked at Pearl in slight disbelief.

Pearl also felt Tang Xia’s gaze of disbelief. She kept quiet for quite some time. She did not dare to speak, because this pill really should not be eaten.

Once you take it, you would be controlled by Chu Tianjiao, and become someone with no control over his or her own mind at all. It was as good as being dead.

Tang Xia threw the pill away and turned around to look at Pearl. She grabbed her by the shoulders and shouted, “We can’t eat it!”

Pearl could feel Tang Xia’s agitation. She nodded and said, “Yes! Both of us can’t eat it!”

Both of them came to a decision. But this dungeon was indeed not fit for survival. There was nothing at all, let alone food and water. The only water there was the extremely murky and dirty water, that could not be drunk at all. If you drink it, you would definitely fall sick.

Getting sick in a place like this was undoubtedly only going to make things worse. Even though they had no hope, they were determined not to compromise.

They had been locked up for a very long time. Pearl looked at Tang Xia. Her lips were dry and cracked, due to going without water or food for a long period of time. The color of her lips was deathly pale.

After a long silence, she knew that they had already endured this ordeal for a very long time already. They did not have the energy to continue anymore.

Tang Xia looked at the scene in front of her, as the light gradually darkened. She could feel that there was not a single ounce of energy left in her body. She wanted to open her eyes, but could not find the strength to do so.

She lifted her hand as if to grab something, but there was only air and nothing else. She…could not hold on any longer…but, she did not want to cause any trouble for Pearl.

However, her eyelids let her down and refused to open. No matter how much strength she used, they would not open at all.

Tang Xia felt that her body becoming very heavy, as if she was free-falling into a bottomless pool of water. The water was black and it swallowed her up slowly, drowning her gradually. She seemed to only hear the sound of flowing water, and the sounds of screams mixed in between.

“Tang Xia! Tang Xia!”

But she could not recall who this person was. This person…who is it? Why…was her voice so familiar?”

She struggled desperately, struggling to swim upwards. She only felt that there was a bunch of twinkling stars above her, which was her last straw. She put in more effort to swim upwards, and she was getting closer and closer to the light…closer and closer…

“Ah!”

Tang Xia woke up in shock suddenly, and gasped for air. Her whole body was covered in sweat, due to the nightmare. When her mind finally cleared, she felt disoriented for a moment. Looking all around her, she frowned in confusion.

“Weren’t they locked up in the dungeon?” She seemed to have fainted, due to lack of energy over an extended period of time, but…how was it that she had woken up in her own room?

She looked around her surroundings. The heart-warming decorations, the soft blankets, and…the maid that delivered her daily meals.

Tang Xia looked at the maid, whose back was to her, while she prepared her meals. She asked, “Where is Zhu Yuanyu?”

The maid did not reply and continued to prepare the meal. Tang Xia knew that all the maids were like this, so she instantly stopped questioning her. Anyway, she would not be able to get any intelligible answer from her.

But thinking about how they were also captured and also force-fed the medicine, Tang Xia instantly felt pity for them. However, she did not say anything, and only looked at the maid with a blank look.

The maid tidied up quickly and lowered her head as she served Tang Xia her meal. It looked very sumptuous, much more than on ordinary days. Besides, she had just came out from the dungeon, so she naturally felt that it was very sumptuous.

She suddenly felt that this maid was very strange. The vibes she gave and her figure…resembled someone…the maid gently laid the meal on the table, and turned around to look at Tang Xia. It was indeed Pearl!

Tang Xia looked at the person in front of her in shock, and could not register it right away. She quickly rushed forward and grabbed hold of Pearl. “What happened to you, Pearl?”

However, Pearl did not react at all, and stared at her blankly. That gaze of hers was the same as all the maids, as if they were controlled by something. They did not have any thoughts of their own at all.

Tang Xia’s face was full of disbelief. She suddenly recalled the scene in the dungeon, the medicine thrown at them…she then linked it to how she woke up in her room, after her faint. The answer now came to her.

Tang Xia could not believe the thought in her mind. She shook Pearl violently, “Say something! Quickly say something!”

However, Pearl did not have any reaction at all. Eventually, Tang Xia could not hold it in and hugged Pearl, as she burst into tears. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I’m sorry…”

She guessed that Pearl must have swallowed the pill in order to save her, when they were in the dungeon. Otherwise, it was just a matter of time before both of them died. But when she thought about what Pearl had turned into, in order to save her, her heart hurt from all the self-blame, and she was very heart-broken.

As if receiving an order, Pearl suddenly ignored Tang Xia, and walked out of the room slowly. Tang Xia wanted to follow her, but the door was closed with a loud bang.

“This time around, Chu Tianjiao, I, Tang Xia, will never give up!”

At this exact moment, a message suddenly popped out on the tablet beside her.

“Li Xianxian, La Chapelle…all eight of you, please proceed to Game Room No.2.”

Tang Xia gave a peal of cold laughter, and turned around to open her closet. Nonchalantly, she changed into the gown that Chu Tianjiao had made her wear on the first day. She pushed the door open and stepped outside slowly.

“Chu Tianjiao, you will pay for everything!”
