Chapter 116

Song Juyao's towering and assertive demeanor delighted numerous trial show viewers, eliciting involuntary cheers. An atmosphere of amazement pervaded the episode. Song Juyao's prowess was undeniable! The intricate card drawing game, coupled with its captivating and beautiful design, garnered points by aiding the virtuous and penalizing the wicked. Her enigmatic persona, tall and striking, combined with her intellect and charisma, evoked admiration and fervor. Truly impressive!

In the realm of reality, the royal household's stewards and venerable council members radiated contentment. Indeed, as the chosen consort of the monarch, her grace, benevolence, and refusal to acquiesce to debauchery were emblematic of her elevated status.

"Miss Song truly stands out." The internal affairs officer, discerning the king's buoyant spirits, couldn't help but remark.

However, the king's fleeting smile waned as he glanced at the elated internal affairs officer.

The succession of trending searches surpassed the preceding three episodes in excitement. Song Juyao, an embodiment of godly prowess, enthralled viewers. Her quick-wittedness and the brilliance of her spirit infused the show with delight and astonishment.

The Tianhuiliang forum's members reveled in jubilation.

[Ahhhhh, I wish to be her follower too!]

[I find myself envying an NPC—woo woo woo.]

[I too, yearn for her gaze; when will she acknowledge our existence?]

[She will inevitably become aware; we await her in the depths of dawn!]

Song Juyao's prominence inadvertently drew attention to the judges—a pair ostensibly inferior to her in conduct and stature. Their real-world identities and experiences lay exposed. A woman who harbored domestic violence by relying on her girlfriend's support and a young lady who graduated high school—reasons, perhaps, for their shameless deeds.

...

Within the virtual world.

City C, Shen Fang and Su Tiantian's malevolent web continued to spread its shadowy tendrils, instilling fear within numerous households.

"Should we simply stand by?" Within the police station, a constable challenged his superior indignantly, "Li Zi's demise is clearly murder; the autopsy report negates drowning as the cause. His lungs and stomach bear no water! He jumped into the river post-mortem!"

"What would you propose?" The chief responded composedly, "You witnessed Li Zi exiting the nightclub and leaping into the river; surveillance substantiates his nightclub departure. What evidence supports foul play? Was he slain by these individuals? Post-mortem river immersion—your assertion appears dubious."

"Yet..."

"We must adhere to procedural protocol while managing the case!" The chief's ire matched the constable's.

Departing the office disheartened and pained, the constable garnered a sympathetic audience. Upon glimpsing his demeanor, comrades discerned the outcome.

"How could this transpire; it's truly sinister..."

"Shen Fang and Su Tiantian, their actions are most nefarious. Two high school students audaciously command a throng of adolescents, seizing dominion from established forces. Furthermore, they're recruiting members! Are they ensnared by some insidious force? Could that account for Li Zi's fate?"

Does any plausible explanation exist beyond this? Yet, this taints their ability to arrest and interrogate the duo. The chance to apprehend them was within reach, yet several parents claimed their children had been victimized, abducted, and extorted, only to later retract the allegations. This clique emanated an eerie aura, though definitive proof eluded them. No fox tails could be snared.
