I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 151: Now you have to go save that girl

"Host, your ideals are lofty, but in reality, your actions will not have any impact on the development of the plot," said the system.

Xiao Jin replied, "How do you know it won't work if you don't try?"

Xiao Jin decided to give it a try. She took out the weapon she always carried with her and walked towards Nan Jin.

The sharp tip of the weapon gleamed with a cold and sharp light as her shoes stepped silently over the puddles formed by raindrops.

Clearly, Xiao Jin was still transparent.

Nevertheless, Xiao Jin still raised the blade in her hand and aimed it at Nan Jin's neck.

Just as the dagger was about to break the skin, Xiao Jin suddenly let go and allowed the dagger to fall to the ground.

"Who?"

Nan Jin looked at the small ripple on the ground and furrowed her brows slightly.

If she hadn't misheard, it seemed like a sound had come from the water puddle just now. It was clear and sounded like the noise of metal or iron falling to the ground.

But in reality, only a broken petal floated on the water's surface.

Nan Jin didn't pay much attention to the sound she heard. In her opinion, on such a cold and rainy day, anything could happen.

Which ghost's soul had come back, and where would it float to? None of it had anything to do with her.

Nan Jin simply said to Su Tan, "There's nothing interesting in the world anymore, but you are guilty, and you must stay alive. You need to go save that girl now."

.... 

Su Tan had already been dragged away by the guards behind Nan Jin, and Nan Jin was nowhere to be seen.

The only person left to enjoy this heavy rain was Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin stood in place and watched for a while until she no longer wanted to watch. Then she asked the system, "Don't you plan to give an explanation?"

The system remained silent.

Xiao Jin said sarcastically, "No explanation for why Nan Jin could hear the sound of the dagger falling?"

"It's a bug, definitely a bug," the system affirmed.

Xiao Jin sneered, "A bug? Go ahead and make excuses. I'll stand here and listen to your nonsense."

The system replied, "Host, I can't quite understand what you mean."

"If you don't understand, then let's have a discussion," Xiao Jin said expressionlessly as she began to bring up past grievances. "Last time when I entered the memory fragment, even though I was still transparent, why did Chu Shao seem to know someone was in the courtyard and spoke to me several times?"

The system explained, "Host, you have to understand the protagonist's halo. It's like this."

"...Although Xiao Jin's emotions were stable, she still had to scold. 'To hell with your protagonist's halo.' According to your logic, if Nan Jin can hear the sound of the dagger falling, does that make her the protagonist too?"

The system remained silent.

Xiao Jin continued, "Since you claim not to understand, let me share my understanding with you."

"Please go ahead," the system replied.

Xiao Jin glanced at the rain-drenched Yao Country Imperial Palace and said to the system, "My understanding is that this is not Chu Shao's memory fragment at all. It's the past being reenacted."
