Capítulo 1273: Chapter 1273: Extra – Candy House 7 (Additional for Xin Yue)

Just as the comic character was feeling utterly frustrated, a blinding white light flashed outside the door once again—

The lightning strike disbanded the Ghost Fire!

The fragile flame quivered and shattered under the force of the thunder, finally turning into a wisp of black smoke, which dispersed and disappeared…

Comic Character: “…”

It remained silent for a long time before turning to look at Bai Youwei not far away.

It believed that Bai Youwei must have witnessed the scene just now.

“… It doesn’t make any sense.” The comic character said with a serious expression, “As the only two characters in this scenario, they definitely don’t belong to the Candy House, so why would the Ghost Fire be struck down too?”

Bai Youwei looked innocent: “You ask me, who should I ask?”

Comic Character: “…”

Bai Youwei added: “The rules require us to carry the item out of the door, not for the item to carry us out of the door.”

The behavior of Ghost Fire clinging to the NPC earlier, should that be considered as it taking Tangtang out, or Tangtang taking the Ghost Fire out?

Upon hearing this, the comic character nodded thoughtfully: “Indeed… this place is not very strict, but if we follow normal methods to take them out, it’s almost impossible. Both of these NPCs are too large in stature, and strong, plus the Inspector’s abilities are suppressed, it’s simply impossible to confront them head-on.”

Bai Youwei nodded forcefully: “Exactly!”

Comic Character: “…”

Being echoed like that felt strange, making it look over and skeptically ask: “Why do I feel like you’re taking pleasure in my misfortune?”

“How could that be?” Bai Youwei replied innocently, “I can’t get out either, can I? When that little girl eats up the door, we’re completely done for!”

“We must quickly think of a way.” The comic character’s mood grew more serious.

It looked around, the molasses and chocolate in the room had mostly melted, making the floor sticky and slippery, like a mire.

It really couldn’t find anything that “does not belong to the Candy House.”

The comic character glanced at Bai Youwei from the corner of its eye.

This guy was standing there confidently, without a trace of nervousness. Was she not anxious?

“That mother and daughter must be the key to solving the riddle. The only ones who can enter and exit the Candy House are the two of them. The item that doesn’t belong to the Candy House must be something they brought in.”

The comic character analyzed while slowly pacing within the Candy House.

“If we go out directly with them, we’ll be struck by lightning. Tearing clothes would provoke them… If only there were scissors…”

It pondered deeply.

“We can’t go out with the NPCs, nor can we get close to them, what other way can we obtain an item that doesn’t belong to the Candy House? … We’ve tried Tangtang’s saliva, besides the saliva, what else would they leave here?”

Bai Youwei chimed in: “Yes, besides saliva, what else might they leave?”

Comic Character: “…”

This infuriating tone really disrupted its thinking.

It took a deep breath and sorted its thoughts again: “… Every half hour, Tangtang sneaks in to eat candy, but she has tooth decay, so every time, the sugar mother would come after her and forcibly take Tangtang away.”

The comic character deeply furrowed its brows.

It had designed game scenarios and knew that the rules introduction wouldn’t have a single wasted word.

“Why emphasize that Tangtang has tooth decay?” The comic character searched around with its eyes, “Could it be… her tooth…”

A flash of inspiration struck!

The comic character suddenly remembered the scene where the sugar mother forcefully pulled a table leg out of her daughter’s mouth!

“It’s the decayed tooth!” it exclaimed with excitement, “The bad decayed tooth, pulled out and stuck on the chocolate candy! Bai Youwei, quickly find that table leg from earlier!”

Tap, tap, tap—

The girl walked nimbly and quickly out the door.

The comic character turned, froze, and stared at Bai Youwei blankly, somewhat unable to react, “How did you…”

Bai Youwei stood outside the door smiling at it, holding a plush rabbit in one hand and raising a small white object with the other.

It was Tangtang’s decayed tooth.
