I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 247: This Female Knight Specializes in Overthrowing the Strong and Aiding the Weak
Screaming until her voice was about to dry out, she finally encountered an incident in a somewhat familiar alley where she could uphold justice.
The white-robed young man from her stories was sitting on a small stool, swiftly operating his smartphone in landscape mode, muttering incessantly.
"It’s over, I’m going to die."
"You’re too strong! Can you spare me?"
"No, no! Go jungle instead of chasing me!"
"For heaven’s sake, someone please save me! I’ve already respawned twice!"
"Your teammates are so strong, can you give me a break?!"
The person sitting next to him on a similar stool was dressed in a dusty gray robe with makeup resembling an old woman.
"You’re finished!"
"Why are you running with such thick skin as a Titan?!"
"I’ll make sure you stay in the fountain, not daring to come out!"
With both having long legs, sitting on the small stools made it look like they were sitting directly on the ground.
The sleeves of their Hanfu were rolled up to their arms, with bare forearms resting on their knees, showing that the "battle" was intense.
Mu Qiu silently thought for a moment: It’s over, I’m going to die; please spare me, stop running—each word and sentence indicated that someone was being bullied inside.
This was simply a perfect target to uphold justice!
She pulled out the retractable knife from her waist and rushed inside.
"Raise your hands! Don’t move!"
The two gaming enthusiasts inside looked up sharply upon hearing the shout, meeting the lens approaching them, along with Mu Qiu’s knife tip.
"......" What is this?!
The two were bewildered. To be honest, upon hearing the command to raise hands and not move, they almost adopted a surrender posture.
Luckily, they retained some rationality.
The young man, upon realizing it was Mu Qiu, closed his eyes, remembering his role—although according to the script, his part was long over.
He placed one hand behind his back, allowing the wide sleeve to slide down and cover the phone in his hand perfectly.
"Why have you come again? Haven’t we already ended things? I haven’t even sought trouble with you, yet you’ve come to me."
Unfortunately, the other person didn’t follow the scene at all. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Mu Qiu pointed her knife tip at the elderly-looking woman, asking the young man sympathetically, "Is she bullying you?"
Young man: "...... No, that’s not happening; why ask this?"
"You’re still hiding from me!" Mu Qiu showed a pained expression, "I heard everything! She torments you! Bullies you! Relies on her strength to bully the weak!"
Older woman & Young man: "......" Where is this drama coming from?
Even professional actors couldn’t keep up with the act. The young man felt like he was facing his second hurdle in his acting career.
By the way, the first hurdle was also her.
He cautiously tried to match her logic, "Yes, she’s bullying me, tormenting me."
The performer with elderly makeup cast him an exasperated look.
Mu Qiu didn’t care about these details; she just wanted the camera and audience to hear this response.
There is bullying! There is torment! Isn’t this the basic condition for upholding justice?!
"Hey!" she shouted, swirling the retractable knife around herself and then pointing it at the older woman, "How dare you bully a weak gentleman in broad daylight!"
The older woman glanced at the "weak gentleman’s" sturdy physique beside her, closed her eyes to avoid further annoyance.
Mu Qiu tried to suppress her urge to laugh, keeping her expression serious, turning her head to speak to the young man:
"Don’t worry, although we’ve severed ties, as a righteous Female Knight, I won’t leave things unattended, I’ll seek justice for you!"
Saying so, she lightly stabbed the older woman a few times.
"Feel the blade! Today, I shall let you know that your deeds are watched by the heavens! The Female Knight, who upholds justice, though might be late, will never be absent!"
The older woman barely played along, letting out a few exaggerated cries, retreating two steps, clutching her chest as if seriously injured.
... It seems everyone is a drama queen.
Mu Qiu pressed the knife to her belly, "Don’t move! My precious knife is indeed poisoned!"
Older woman: That knife is obviously the one I gave you! It’s not poisoned!
Mu Qiu ignored her reaction, and turned her head to the handsome young man, "Don’t be afraid! I’ll help you! Give me the phone."
"...... In this era......" He sighed and handed it to her.
He handed the phone, still in the midst of a game, over to her; Mu Qiu accepted it single-handedly, glanced at it, she wasn’t familiar with the game.
She handed the phone back to him, "Forget it, let’s find another way."
Young man: ?? What do you mean?
A minute later.
The precious knife was placed on the small stool, and the three people dressed in ancient costumes squatted in a row, while two of them held phones, chatting away.
The person wearing the makeup of an old woman excitedly pointed at a place on the phone screen next to Mu Qiu.
"Quick, quick! Sniper him there! He’s just running around on the spot!"
Mu Qiu: "I won’t."
"... Here, here! Run! Why provoke the jungle creeps?! Their health is too high!"
Mu Qiu controlled the game character with her fingertips, running towards the jungle.
"I won’t, I want to challenge them!"
"... Are you done with the challenge? The teammates are calling to assemble, quickly block people on the bottom lane; hurry up, run past this area, their tower will drain your health!"
Mu Qiu: "I’m not afraid, the strong advance steadily."
"...... The teammates are scolding."
Mu Qiu: "It doesn’t matter; my main goal is to control justice and let the young man win."
The young man was moved to tears, feeling it was the most fun and relaxed game he had ever played.
The performer with elderly makeup felt a headache coming on, "He’s so bad, you can’t save him."
"It’s fine; it’s my duty to uphold justice and rescue the weak... Oh, I died!"
The older woman grew tense, "That’s okay, respawn at the fountain soon, come back quickly."
"I feel it’s nice to hide at the fountain."
"......"
The performing young woman helplessly watched as her game character stayed at the fountain until the screen went gray.
Her tower was pushed down...
The young man burst into laughter of surprise.
Mu Qiu let out a long sigh of relief and returned the phone.
"Alright, my mission to uphold justice and help others is complete."
She picked up the precious knife from the stool, disregarded the older woman’s pouting expression, and said to the young man, "No need to thank me; upholding justice is my duty."
"But if you really want to thank me, how about leaving me your contact info?"
Young man: "......" He wanted to say it wasn’t necessary.
But he gently replied, "No paper or pen, it’s hard to leave it."
"Paper isn’t needed; I’m sure the audience will help remember it; you say it, I’ll take notes..."
The backstage staff quickly stopped Mu Qiu’s actions.
Softly reminded her of her competitiveness: "Go for first place, go for first place, Mu Qiu!"
Asking a performer to leave contact info in front of the whole nation, what does that look like!
Mu Qiu reluctantly had to abandon the idea, reluctantly waving goodbye to the young man.
