“Why wasn’t that man punished when he also attacked others?” Shen Mo asked.

The Rabbit-man was not stingy in his explanation: “The Inspector’s duty is to ensure the smooth operation and settlement of the game.”

So, players who have already cleared the game cannot be attacked after the game ends, because it would affect the game’s settlement.

In the same way, players cannot be attacked before the game starts, as a reduction in the number of players might hinder the game’s progress.

Only during the game can one act as they please.

“Congratulations on clearing this game.”

The Rabbit-man said this respectfully in front of them, holding up his oversized hat.

“The tortoise has finally beaten the hare and deserves a reward. You can choose to receive a Turtle Victory Medal or select something else from the competition field.”

It took many things out of its hat, as if it was performing a magic trick.

There was a small, exquisite starting gun, tiny colored flags from the starting line, and a red ribbon used as the finish line.

Shen Mo asked, “What are these things for?”

The Rabbit-man gave a faint smile upon hearing this.

Its face had always been expressionless to the point that at first, people had mistaken it for wearing a head cover. But now, it smiled! Its three-petaled mouth lifted in a strange arc, appearing delighted as if it had found an interesting toy.

“The purpose of the reward can only be known once you receive it.”

The Rabbit-man gazed at the two of them with a smile, giving away nothing else. “So, what is your choice?”

Shen Mo chose the starting gun.

Although it was not a real gun, it still looked intimidating. Moreover, he had a hunch that this gun was not ordinary, since every time he heard the gunshot during the competition, he felt involuntarily compelled to run.

As for the other items, Shen Mo couldn’t figure out their uses at the moment.

“What about you?” The Rabbit-man looked inquisitively at Bai Youwei, tilting its head: “You’re quite unique. You didn’t run a step, but still won the race. So, I’m quite interested to know, what reward will you choose?”

Bai Youwei bit her lip, slowly raised her hand, and pointed in a certain direction──

The Rabbit-man glanced at her uncertainly, then looked down at itself; confused, it asked: “Is the reward you’re choosing… me? But I don’t think it’s within the rules to choose the Inspector as a reward…”

“There’s no such rule!” Bai Youwei quickly interrupted it!contemporary romance

The moment she heard the word ‘violation’, she instinctively remembered the horrifying image of the girl in glasses being struck by lightning. Her nerves tightened as she yelled: “You didn’t announce this rule, so you cannot claim that I violated it! It’s the biggest violation to arbitrarily determine others as violators without clear rules!”

The Rabbit-man silently looked at her.

Bai Youwei bit her lip tightly, stubbornly standing her ground.

She knew the risk was high, but she was not willing to accept it!──She felt like a fool, tricked into participating in a baffling race where so many had died, and now she was expected to accept a few toys as a reward; she just couldn’t accept it!

That’s why she’d decided to take a gamble!

She stared at the Rabbit-man, and stated, word for word: “You just said that we could choose any other items from the game field as our reward! You are also on the game field!”

The silence hung in the air for a long time.

A long time…

“Alright then.” The Rabbit-man gave in.

Bai Youwei was stunned, somewhat surprised; it was that easy…?

“Technically, the Inspector should not be part of the rewards. However, you make a good argument; it was my negligence not to explain the rules clearly.” The Rabbit-man said, elegantly courteous: “I’m willing to give you one-tenth of myself as your reward…”

One-tenth of itself?

What did that mean?

Bai Youwei furrowed her eyebrows, only to see the Rabbit-man extend his hand into the oversized hat again──

It pulled out a rabbit figurine.

“The game rewards have been settled, so… goodbye.” The Rabbit-man smiled at her, “I will remember you.”

Bai Youwei widened her eyes at his words, but before she could ask anything, her sight was again overwhelmed by a blinding white mist!

She involuntarily closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was back in the car──

In her hand, she held a soft rabbit figurine.
