This task, if given to Wen Xishu, who scores perfectly in reading comprehension, pays keen attention to detail, and can even beat the bullet screen by force, would be ridiculously easy.

But Zheng Zai is easily deceived.

He has already misjudged three families in a row.

For example, in the first family, Zheng Zai mistakenly judged a good family because all the neighbors said that someone in that family cried every night, suspecting domestic violence.

Zheng Zai administered the punishment, turning the good people into evil people.

As a result, he was afflicted with the "insane" buff.

The number of stacks of insanity increases the likelihood of malicious judgments or making some bizarre judgments.

Under mental torment, Zheng Zai has more than once felt the impulse to "sentence them all to death."

He seemed to feel a massive public opinion pushing him.

It's as if countless people were loudly shouting behind him:

"Death penalty! Death penalty! Death penalty!"

Yes, he is about to face the judgment of the fourth family. The information Zheng Zai has gathered is that the family is a household of three, the father and mother are divorced, the child lives with the mother, and it is suspected that the mother had an affair. After learning the truth, the father also believes that the child is not his.

Zheng Zai is about to judge this family, determine who is good and who is bad, and assign the corresponding punishment.

But having been wrong three times already, with his mind polluted, he's more than once considered sentencing the entire family of three to death.

He could still hear whispers in his ears...

"They all deserve to die! The small one deserves to die! The old one deserves to die! The man deserves to die! The woman deserves to die! Guilty! Guilty! All guilty!"

It's like internet sentencing, with only two paths: acquittal or death penalty.

Of course, there aren't just one of these voices in Zheng Zai's mind.

"Women are innocent! I can't join the hunt against women!"

"What innocent women! It's clearly men who are the vulnerable group!"

"The cowardly man deserves to die, the bitch deserves to die, and the bastard spawn deserves to die too!"

It's as if tens of thousands of people were shouting in his head.

Zheng Zai was overwhelmed, not knowing what to do because of his continuous mistakes. The tremendous pressure almost drove him to consider ending it all.

But just then, Zheng Zai suddenly received a message.

[Due to Wen Xishu achieving Level 7 completion, everyone in the Bunker will receive the 'Deceit and Desire Dual Sound' reward.]

Next was the description of the Deceit and Desire Dual Sound.

Zheng Zai suddenly felt invigorated.

"Great! Great! Younger Brother Wen is still alive! He's still alive! Not only is he alive, but he's also brought a camp reward. This is fantastic."

The inner agitation was temporarily suppressed at this moment because of the news of his dear friend's survival.

Zheng Zai finally resisted the mental pollution from the whispers and began to recall details...

But he still couldn't make a judgment.

He quickly realized that although he had Younger Brother Wen's theories and wasn't afraid of the bizarre, and could even devour the bizarre in large bites, he still lacked the ability to judge human nature.

If he made a wrong judgment, he might become a "gender convictor," an "indiscriminate death penalty wholesaler," and so on.

Zheng Zai fell into despair.

The bizarreness of Deceit Tower made him realize that his talent was insufficient.

He wasn't collapsing from being in a perilous situation but from having control over the life and death of others.

"What should I do... What should I do... What information have I missed? Where exactly... did I go wrong?"

In the massive Mysterious Court, Zheng Zai's expression gradually became distorted.

But just before he was about to lose control, he suddenly noticed a message in the lower right corner of his vision.

Deceit and Desire Dual Sound.

The national feature unlocked by Wen Xishu wasn't used by him first!

Just before Zheng Zai was about to collapse, he discovered that the Deceit and Desire Dual Sound was already activated.

This was very challenging.

First, both parties needed to ascend their respective towers simultaneously, one climbing Deceit Tower and the other climbing Desire Tower, both must be on the same level, and even if they are on the same level, there's the question of whether it's the same task.

Even if it's the same task... do the two have a close relationship?

Because the better the relationship, the longer the conversation time can be.

Although Wen Xishu had opened up the path, allowing cross-tower joint actions from zero to one between Desire Tower and Deceit Tower,

the harsh conditions prevented many people from experiencing such a feature.

Zheng Zai hadn't expected that there was a message at the lower right corner of his vision.

He tried to focus his gaze on that spot, and instantly... the whispers in Zheng Zai's mind suddenly lowered in volume.

A familiar voice appeared in Zheng Zai's mind.

"Oh, it really works! Let me guess, you're Zheng Zai, right?"

Time seemed to slow down, and Zheng Zai felt the voice was like a heavenly melody.

"Ah... Ah Miao?"

"Hey, it's me! Wow, we have such ample time to communicate, it's great. What happened on your side? Do you need any help from me?"

Zheng Zai's brain short-circuited a bit.

"No... no exactly, Ah Miao, how come you're in Desire Tower? How are you also climbing the tower?"

Ah Miao excitedly said on the other end:

"I've been watching over you, Zheng Zai. Although you look fierce, you're genuinely kind-hearted. When Ah Shu hid his name on the Celestial Ladder List, I noticed you."

To be precise, it wasn't just noticing you, but continuously observing you.

Ah Miao wanted to say this, but felt perhaps it was too immodest.

"At that time, you seemed so withered, looking really pitiful. Then you started climbing the tower, and I'm too familiar with you."

"You must be thinking, Ah Shu has already encountered misfortune, and you need to inherit Ah Shu's way of doing things, right?"
