<The Rabbit and t works

Chapter 121 Why Me?

    

bers in the picture were crying very sadly, like Sunny who burst into tears on stage, bowing her head and crying so hard she couldn't sing. YoonA and Seohyun were also like that.This picture instantly..."Huh"

This sudden invitation made Chi Jingyuan pause, but he wasn't too surprised. Glancing at the rather dull neon comedy show playing on the brightly lit television, he casually asked: "You guys Who are you"

"There are a few of us from 94, and also Ye-rin, Ae-ri unnie... " Ji-seo gave a simple introduction to their team. Then, for whatever reason, she added afterwards: “Oh, and Ju-hyeon unnie is here too..."

"What, mentioning me specifically" A voice came from the phone, and Ji Jingyuan immediately recognized it as Pei Zhuxuan's. Her crisp voice sounded a little bit annoyed as she complained to Jiang Seqi, followed by a burst of silly laughter.

"How come you decided to get together today" Chi Jingyuan chuckled upon hearing the sounds from his phone and stretched before sitting up in bed. "What are we playing"

“We were originally thinking of playing card games or board games, but after more people joined, Yilin suggested we play Mafia. Everyone was on board with that idea, but it would be a little short-handed. If you came, it would be perfect.”

"The fifth floor" Chi Jingyuan considered for a moment before getting out of bed, putting on his clothes as he asked.

"Mm, in the recreation room on the fifth floor, Jingyuan come quickly…" Hearing this tone, Jiang Shiqi knew it was okay. She hurriedly repeated and nodded, then as if she remembered something, asked again: "By the way, Jingyuan, did Shixun go out tonight"

"I don't think so..." Ji-seong pondered, sounding uncertain. This time he and Se-hun hadn't booked the same room, and he hadn't paid attention to see if this person had gone out partying with Chan-le. "If he didn't go out, he should be in his room right now."

"Then you take a look and see if he's here. If he is, call him over so we can all play together. It just so happens that all of us 94 liners are here." Upon hearing this, Jiang Seqi immediately agreed.

Okay, I'll take a look.

After responding with a "yes," Chi Jingyuan hung up the phone. He got up and casually changed into a white T-shirt and shorts, each adorned with a yellow and black Pikachu tail emblem that perfectly completed the look. With his natural hair soft and fluffy, draped over his forehead, he looked completely fresh-faced after just taking a shower.

After some thought, he took out a pair of black-rimmed glasses from his bag and put them on. He then stepped out the door wearing a pair of black canvas slip-on shoes.

Ji-yeong knocked on Wu Shixun's door. He had just finished talking to his girlfriend and was playing with his phone. After Ji-yeong told him, he simply tidied up a bit and went downstairs with him.

"Why did you have her call me instead of calling me directly"

Maybe you two aren't familiar with each other.

"I..."

EXO lives on the 12th floor. As the two of them chatted, they rode the elevator down. When Wu Se-hun casually asked a question, he was immediately rebuked, leaving him speechless. He frowned unhappily and rolled his eyes.

Did you two know each other before I introduced you, or are Shiqi and I not familiar

Upon exiting the elevator on the fifth floor and walking about ten meters to the side, I opened the door and entered the hotel's own leisure room. The dimly lit corridor lighting immediately brightened like daylight, and my eyes were momentarily slightly stung.

To make things convenient and avoid being disturbed by reporters or fans, the hotel has basically been booked out by S. Currently, the only people staying there are company staff and artists, so there's no need to worry about being in the presence of strangers and having to be discreet. Additionally, many places and facilities are empty, so you won't have to share common areas like restaurants or lounges with outsiders.

As soon as he stepped inside and glanced around, Chi Jingyuan immediately saw a table of people sitting not far away. In this small-sized rest room, there was only that table with someone else nearby.

...and the sound of them entering also caught their attention. Seeing the two people, several immediately laughed and greeted them, including ginger sheqi, the person who invited them, who stood up directly, puffed out her cheeks, and waved her hands non-stop:

"Over here! Over here!"

"Chi Jingyuan also responded with a smile, his gaze sweeping over the scene before him."

Everyone was seated around a rectangular table at this time, and on the table were two decks of playing cards and some dice and bells used for playing small games.

> Besides, there are all familiar faces here. All five members of Red Velvet are present, as well as Sulli from f(x) and Aer.

Adding in Ji-won and Seon, almost all of the 94 liners who are close with S company showed up.

The past two years, these friends and acquaintances occasionally got together for meals, but as Red Velvet debuted and their popularity rose, schedules became busier. EXO also reached its peak, with everyone running around non-stop. They rarely had free time to meet up, and it’s been a while since they last had a private gathering together.

At this time, the two people from FX were looking like they had just returned from outside recently. Although they were wearing casual clothes, the style and design weren't homely at all, and their faces still had makeup on, clearly showing some traces of nightlife.

On the other hand, a few of Lai Debei's people might be because the company management is quite strict and doesn't allow them to go out. Therefore, they have already showered and tidied up. At this time, the five of them didn't wear much makeup, at most just a little BB cream. A few of their hair seemed to still be damp, and they were all dressed simply. Overall, their aura looked youthful and vibrant.

"How did you all happen to get together at this time" Chi Jingyuan and Wu Shixun walked to the side, clearly making space for them, and sat down. After looking around, they smiled and asked.

"I just wanted to play casually, but when I called Sherry and Aer, they happened to be back."

"As soon as we finished our meal and arrived at the hotel, Seqi called us. Isn't that a coincidence"

Ginger Sheqi and Choi Seol-ri, both very lively, gave him a simple explanation one after the other.

Irene has always been close to Red Velvet, and Jikwang knows this. However, although Seolhyun is a member of the 94 line, in his memory, she's only really close to him and not very connected with the other members.

However, upon closer look, she didn't know when she had become familiar with several other classmates of the same age, especially Jiang Shibaqi and Sun Shengwan. Their interactions seemed much closer than before.

There's also Kim Ye-rin, this little girl is popular because she's young and has a sweet personality. She's friendly with everyone.

Although I don't know when Choi Sulli hooked up with them.

But, that's pretty good.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Wu Shixun, Ji Jingyuan turned his head to look at the person beside him.

Just by chance, the beautiful girl Bae Joo-hyun sitting next to me was wearing a white dress with yellow flowers. Her two snow-white legs were plump and close together. Because her skirt was relatively short, she was holding a yellow pillow in front of her. She wore a pair of light-colored slippers at home, and her toes hidden in the shadow seemed to be curled up.

Her long hair, still slightly damp, was tied up in a bun at the back of her head. Her fair and rosy face was almost barefaced, looking clean and innocent, making one want to pinch it.

As Ji-won was looking at the other person, Joo-hyuk also happened to look over. Looking at Ji-won's slightly messy hair drooping across his forehead, his bare face and the stylish black-rimmed glasses he was wearing, Joo-hyuk's eyes lit up with surprise. He blinked a few times and smiled at Ji-won in acknowledgement, before both of them quietly turned away.

"What do you want to play" After chatting for a while, Wu Shixun and Jiang Seqi tapped the table to get to the point.

"The Mafia! The Mafia!"

As soon as Kim Ye-rin heard this, she immediately raised her hand high and jumped up and down in place, at the same time loudly giving her suggestion. Her golden hair spread out in mid-air and swayed for a moment before falling down and directly covering her eyes.

"Haha..." Seeing this little girl so enthusiastic, the others also smiled and didn't raise any objections.

Before this, we had already made plans. Otherwise, Ginger would not have called Pool Jingyuan and the others because there were too few people to play with.

After the game was decided, the nine people present pulled up their chairs and huddled closer around the table. Ji Jingyuan glanced at Pei Zhuxuan beside him, slightly bowed his body, stood up with one hand pulling a chair forward, and the other hand pressed against the cushion on the skirt of her thigh, looking somewhat strained. He twitched his mouth and proactively helped her support the cushion. After she looked at him, he used both hands to push the chair forward to her position and then let go, returning the cushion to its original place.

Pei Zhuhyun changed her sitting position, dragging her slippers across the floor. Her legs were sprawled out to the side, exposing her toes under the light. They were painted with a delicate lavender star-shaped design that looked quite alluring. She smiled and hugged her pillow, no longer looking in the direction of Ji Seongwon. Instead, she smoothed down her hair and giggled, watching her two younger sisters squabbling over who got to sit closest to the window.

It's just that I don't know if it was intentional or not, but after moving the stool forward, she and Chi Jingyuan were already closer.

Mafia is a popular murder mystery game in this region, suitable for playing with a group of friends. One person is chosen to be the Godfather, who secretly assigns roles to everyone, selecting one as the Mafia (the killer), and others as roles like doctor, policeman, etc. The number of responsibilities and roles increases as more players join the game.

The Mafia can kill one person each night. When day comes, everyone guesses the identity of the killer. If both killers guess correctly, the good guys win. Otherwise, if they don't guess correctly and are all killed, the bad guys win.

This game is still very popular among young people on the peninsula. Park Ji-won also played a few times with EXO members in the dormitory when they were bored, although he wasn't very good at it, he at least knew the rules. Looking at Kim Ye-rin and Kang Se-bin and the others' faces beaming with smiles, they are probably all veterans at this game.

"I want to run for it." Ginger Shiqi was the first to raise her hand, smiling widely and looking a bit naive.

"I also want to be God!" Kim Yeol-lin, although the second person to express this, stretched her hand higher than Jeong Seo-ki. She stretched for two seconds, perhaps still afraid that it wasn't high enough or sincere enough, and then stood up straight.

Seeing these two people so enthusiastic, no one else competed with them. It felt interesting to watch these two teammates compete with each other.

"Eoni, let's play rock-paper-scissors." Although Kim Yiryeong is the maknae and youngest, she can be a bit bossy when interacting with the members. She directly challenged Kang Seorim.

"Good," Jiang Shiqi nodded, her eyes curving into a smile.

"Rock, paper, scissors." "Rock, paper, scissors." "Rock, paper, scissors."

Jiang Shiqi looked like she wasn't doing very well, but her luck was really good. She quickly won three rounds in a row. With a smug smile, she reached out and was about to announce that she would be the "God" when Kim Eilyun suddenly jumped out, collapsed on the ground twice, and laughed slyly: "I forgot to mention earlier, the loser becomes the 'God'!"

The people around burst into laughter.

"feeling deceived, Jiang Shubi seemed a little annoyed. She pouted and glanced at everyone, seeing that no one was helping her speak up for herself, she stood up huffily and walked out: "You guys play yourselves, I'm leaving."

"Ohni~" Seeing this, Kim Yerin immediately stopped showing off and hurriedly went over to hug Jiang Seqi's arm, starting to act coquettishly. She called "Oni" in a sweet voice, rubbing against Jiang Seqi softly on both sides. She immediately appeased Jiang Seqi, her mouth stretching into a silly smile, returning to her face. It was clear that she wasn't truly angry.

Seeing her elder sister smile, Kim Yeol-rin tactfully withdrew from the competition for God and sat back down on the bench. Everyone then began waiting for the first sentence of the game to start.

"When it gets dark, close your eyes! Put your hands on the table."

Having obtained the role of God, Jiang Seqi was somewhat satisfied. She commanded everyone while circling the table behind them.

They all heard the conductor and obediently placed their hands on the table, closing their eyes and bowing their heads.

"Now, I'm designating two mobsters." She said, lightly tapping the two chosen individuals with her finger.

"Now specifying doctor..."

Chi Jingyuan felt Jiang Sheqi circling around him, but there was no indication. It seemed he could only remain a useless commoner.

"Alright, open your eyes."

"Could it be you I just felt Seqi lingering beside us for a while, if it wasn't me, then it must have been you, Oni" As soon as she opened her eyes, Choi Soo-young looked at Aer beside her with confidence, stating her deduction. Her eyes were fixed and determined, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

"How could it be me, I'm just a kind civilian." Aer immediately put on an innocent expression and waved her hands frantically to assert her good intentions.

According to the rules, after everyone has chosen their roles for the first time, the guessing identity phase will immediately begin. If you guess correctly, you can vote out one of the bad guys before the Mafia can kill anyone.

"I just think it must be you, Oni." Choi Soo-ryeon didn't believe the other person's explanation at all and felt her logic was becoming more perfect: "Seokki has been circling us for a reason. If I'm not the one, then Oni, you must be the Mafia."

"Oh, no, not at all."

The moment the game started, the good guys immediately fell apart. The two members of FX started fighting amongst themselves first.

"I think it should be Kyung-won Oppa and Sehun Oppa."

After the arguing between those two died down, it was Kim Ye-rin's turn. She frowned slightly, pursed her lips, and looked at Ji Kyeong-won and Woo Se-hun across from her, a face full of suspicion on her small features: "Because there are only these two guys in our group, and they were the last to join, we don't know if they even play. So for the first round, the two oppa are most suitable to be Mafia... What do you think"

As she said this, she also pulled on Park Soo-ryong beside her, as if trying to find someone who agreed with her.

"Well, I think so too." Park Soo-young, who had been a little confused and clueless at first, started to follow Kim Yeol-in's lead after her somewhat convincing analysis. She nodded in agreement and then, with a look of disdain, glanced over here.

Ji Jingyuan suddenly felt speechless, not towards Kim Yiryeong, but toward Park Soo-young.

No, don't you have your own thoughts You just believe her word for it

"It wasn't me, I'm a good person." Wu Shixun also waved his hands quickly, and surprisingly didn't refute it. While trying to clear himself, he directly threw the blame on Ji Jingyuan: "I definitely didn't do it, but Jingyuan is very likely. He always says he doesn't know how to play, but in reality, he's the best actor."

Wu Shih-Hsun's words revealed that he was only mediocre at the game.

Kim Ye-lin and Park Soo-yeong nodded in unison, seeming to believe what Woo Se-hun had said. Now, three people at the table began to suspect Ji Kyeong-won.

"It's Jingyuan's turn. Who do you think is the Mafia" Seeing that Ji Jingyuan remained silent, his gaze constantly sweeping over several people around him, as God, Jiang Seqi cleared her throat and took the initiative to ask.

I think...

Originally leaning back in his chair, observing the scene, Ki Jeong-won sat up and spoke after some deliberation: "I think it's probably Eolyn."

"Me" Kim Yeri was caught off guard and stared at herself in surprise, looking around left and right. She pointed at herself and showed the people beside her that she was innocent.

"Well, it should be Ellyne."

"Ji Jingyuan repeated himself, becoming more certain of his thoughts: 'Because it's Seqi who is playing God, according to her personality, after making such a commotion just now, she would definitely want to compensate her sister who failed to compete for the role of God. As far as I know her, what happens next is hard to say. The first sentence will most likely choose Eilynn to be the mafia boss, after all, you proposed this game, she will definitely take the initiative to take care of your gaming experience.'"

Seeing Kim Yeorin's expression still innocent, he laughed and pointed at her. "Although this is an external factor, the probability is the highest... I looked at it for a long time and didn't find any flaws in your performance. Your acting is great, both your eyes and expressions are very good. However, if you bite your lips harder and make your eyes more dazed, the effect might be even better. How about this..."

“Pff...” This comment obviously made Kim Yeol-in unable to hold it in. Her pitiful, pouted mouth, which she had been holding tight to show her distress, suddenly puffed up like a balloon. After twitching the corners of her lips twice, she involuntarily turned her head to the side. But at this point, anyone could see that she couldn't act anymore and was struggling to suppress her laughter.

And when Jiang Sheqi heard Chi Jingyuan's judgment, she blinked and then her cheekbones stuck out, revealing her trademark silly smile. She seemed not to have seen the look Jin Yilin secretly threw over, nor did she help explain for her.

"I guess the first mafia member must be Ellyne, no doubt. The second one..."

Saying that, Ji Jingyuan shifted his gaze from Jin Yilin, who was using her eyes to plead with her elder sister, to the last person in this round, the one who had remained silent from the beginning to now: "It should be a win."

"!"

Suddenly being called by name, Sun Shengwan jerked upright, her eyes widening, her eyebrows practically flying to her hairline, her mouth gaping open wide enough to swallow a whole egg. Her originally pale complexion flushed with blood, and her exaggerated expression once again showcased her outstanding talent for acting.

She was filled with bewilderment and disbelief, her hands innocently spread open as she shouted out loud, "What Why me I'm a good person!"

I didn't say a word the whole time, I was just enjoying the excitement. How can you possibly guess it was me

You must have opened your eyes when it was dark!

Because...

Ji Chang Wook started laughing as he opened his mouth, turning to look at Bae Joo-hyun beside him. At the same time, Bae Joo-hyun was also looking at him with a smile in her eyes. Their eyes met, and it seemed like they both understood each other's thoughts.

"You go ahead," he stopped himself from criticizing and smirked, tilting his chin towards Jennie.

"Hee hee…"

The young lady also seemed to be holding back a smile. She covered her mouth and laughed twice before looking at Sun Shengwan, who was still making expressions, with his hands spread out in a gesture of innocence. After smiling again, her eyes curved into crescent moons. She pursed her lips and, despite her trembling voice, said:

“Because…because after you won, you kept shaking your legs from dawn till now, even changing positions in the middle and shaking more and more intensely, hahaha…Clearly God didn't act like this before choosing someone…haha.”
