Doomsday Wonderland

Chapter 1195: Lin Sanjiu's Soft Heart

Lin Sanjiu remembered the Lava Player's Handbook in her hand. No, it would be more accurate to call it a stack of files for the Lava Player's Handbook.

"No, I didn't know," she said while trying to recall what she had reaped with her reaper. "But I did take Wushi Fan's corneas with this reaper... So, can a person reap their own organs to sell?"

"Impossible," Bohemia said, surprised. "If you don't believe me, see for yourself." She took out a similar stainless steel reaper and pressed it against her heart without hesitation, almost making Lin Sanjiu exclaim in surprise. "Heart," Bohemia commanded before giving Lin Sanjiu a stern look and tapping her reaper, which was empty. "I told you, it's safe. Your reaper can't reap your own organs."

"So, that means... this reaper isn't Wushi Fan's," Lin Sanjiu said with a frown, as she found it hard to imagine the experienced Wushi Fan being unaware of this fact. "But I did take it from her. Could it be her brother's?"

"That doesn't matter. It's not yours," Bohemia said, knowing that most of today's points had gone down the drain, making her even more annoyed.

"But why would she use someone else's reaper? I think there's another possibility," Ya Jiang chimed in, leaning in. "Perhaps the little girl's organs were reaped from someone else. Whatever you reap from her, she loses... When you took her corneas, didn't she close her eyes? You don't know if she could still see."

"Oh, right, you were also there," Lin Sanjiu said.

"What benefit would she get from doing that?" Bohemia said, impatiently avoiding the old man on the ground and handing her reaper to Lin Sanjiu. "Holding on to organs is not safe. Why not quickly exchange them for points?"

"Think carefully. She had no reason to exchange them quickly," Ya Jiang said, smiling at her as if he was getting used to the latter's temper. "With her reaper, no matter who ended up with the reaped organs, as long as they were sold to the hospital, the points would be credited to Wushi Fan. So, apart from us newbies who are unaware, experienced players wouldn't compete for the reaped organs she had yet to exchange—only the organs in her body.

"That means... did you notice? There's a loophole she can exploit," Ya Jiang said, pondering. "Avoiding experienced players, she targets us newbies and tries to intentionally let her reaper fall into our hands."

"Ah." Lin Sanjiu straightened up from the ground. "Then, all the organs the newbie reaped and sold to the hospital would become hers."

"Yes, and newbies are often clueless and will ask many questions. She can take advantage of this and tell them, for example, 'The hospital doesn't provide points inquiry, so you have to remember how many points you have on your own'... Then, after a newbie exchanges their organs, they may not even ask the NPC how many points they have."

It was truly astonishing. However, his words seemed to draw back the curtains of the stage, and Lin Sanjiu gradually saw the hidden shadows behind. She originally thought Wushi Fan was only using her appearance to pretend to be a child and get close to newbies, then conspire with her brother to reap organs. But Wushi Fan had bad luck this time; Lin Sanjiu immediately defeated her and took her reaper. Lin Sanjiu hadn't expected that pretending to be a child was only the outermost layer of her scheme.

That was right. When a newbie found out Wushi Fan was an adult, they wouldn't delve deeper into it; everyone would assume that her trick ended there.

After thinking for a while, Lin Sanjiu could almost visualize how Wushi Fan's scheme was executed. When the newbie thought all her organs were reaped, they would naturally discard her body. Who would have known she could just get up again? Moreover, her brother was secretly monitoring the whole process, with minimal risk and substantial gains.

It turned out that Wushi Fan had the misfortune of encountering Lin Sanjiu. After receiving Gardenia's warning, Lin Sanjiu didn't rush to reap her organs, nor did she discard the little girl's body. Instead, she locked her securely inside the patient room. Gardenia's scam was inserted into the Wushi siblings' scheme.

"I don't know whether to call you lucky," a voice suddenly said as they were all deep in thought about Wushi Fan's deception. Sesame Cake glanced at Lin Sanjiu with a cold smile on her lips. "You encountered such a veteran the moment you came in."

After unclogging her hearing, she now spoke clearly. However, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but analyze Sesame Cake's tone and demeanor secretly before waving her hand. "Instead of commenting, why don't you tell me where you hid your organs? After all, I spared you a second time. Even though I had to go through the trouble of regrowing your teeth to make up for your repeated attempts on me, I should..."

She stopped midway, suddenly glancing at Sesame Cake. The latter slightly raised her eyebrows, her tongue gliding across her lips as if she had just licked her own teeth.

"Her scheme might be brilliant, but she's already dead," Bohemia interjected, seemingly annoyed by her own thoughts. "Now, quickly use my reaper to reap more marrow. When I go to exchange points, you can interrogate her."

Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath before forcing herself to focus on Wushi Ming's body, which had been cut in two. This gruesome task seemed to have no end; only when there was barely any [Bone Broth] left in the clay pot did she finally feel like she was released from a burden. She handed the hard-earned marrow to Bohemia and stored the Special Item away. It could generate bones; who knew when she might need it in the future.

At this moment, Wushi Ming looked pitiful and horrifying. His skin and flesh, like a gutted pig, were turned over, revealing semi-yellowish dark-red patches. The smell was like decayed blood mixed with the remnants of intestines. The abnormally long white spinal column extended from the incision above his buttocks, sending chills down one's spine as it stretched all the way down and fell onto the grayish floor until it touched his knees.

"Isn't it strange?" Lin Sanjiu stood up, not daring to look at her own artistic achievement. "The more I try to avoid being too ruthless, the more tragic their ends seem to be."

While Bohemia ran toward the payment counter as if her life depended on it, Lin Sanjiu gestured for Ya Jiang to keep an eye on the surroundings and focused her attention on Sesame Cake.

"I thought, after seeing him in such a wretched state, you would be more inclined to tell the truth. But I didn't expect..." Lin Sanjiu squatted down, locking eyes with Sesame Cake, "that you would seem completely indifferent."
