After Taya and Johnny thought that the seventh round of the game was over, they expected to have a week’s break
before the next round started, just like before. But as soon as they returned to their room, the mechanical voice
immediately sounded.
“Two players, the eighth round of the fourth level will begin tomorrow, please be prepared in advance.”
Taya and Johnny looked at each other. Was it because the puppeteer behind Scarface had been discovered, so the
game
was moved up?
But who is the puppeteer behind Scarface, and why send someone to help them? They were both puzzled, but had
to follow
the rules of the game.
That night, Taya couldn’t sleep well. She tossed and turned in bed, with images of Scarface being swallowed by a
snake in her mind. Since coming here, she had seen too many bloody scenes, each time feeling fear and dread, but
this time was different. Maybe… because of Zack.
Johnny, on the opposite bed, heard her tossing and turning and turned to her. “If you can’t sleep, talk to me.”
Taya turned to him, hands on her cheeks, and asked, “Did Zack

Johnny had the answer in his heart, but pretended not to know,
shaking his head. “He’s so skilled, he should be able to escape.”
Johnny saw Taya’s daze and softened his voice to comfort her.
“Don’t think too much, we have a game tomorrow, so rest well.”
Taya asked, “What kind of game will it be tomorrow?”
Johnny shook his head. “I don’t know.”
Taya asked again, “Do you think we can pass the level?”
Johnny nodded confidently. “We can.”
Taya smiled bitterly. “You’re optimistic.”
Johnny raised an eyebrow. “We both chose right in the blind
selection today, which means we are the real Aces.”
Taya chuckled at his teasing. “A few months ago, we did fight our
way out on Preston’s ceremory ship. I hope we can keep that luck
tomorrow.”
Johnny smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you make it to the ninth
round.”
“If I make it to the ninth round, can I see him?”

Johnny’s heart ached, and the smile on his lips gradually
disappeared. “In the ninth round, the Black Cloaked Man will appear, maybe he will come.”
“I miss him.”

After a long silence, Taya said this quietly.
Suddenly, Johnny didn’t want to talk to her anymore. He turned away from her, facing the white wall, showing his
anger.
After spending so much time with him, Taya could now feel his emotional changes and knew that he was angry
when he turned
his back on her.
She stared at his back for a moment, then called out to him,
“Johnny.”
Johnny grunted coldly, “What’s wrong?”
Taya, feeling a bit embarrassed, covered her stomach and said, “I… am hungry.”
At the sound of her soft voice, Johnny’s anger disappeared inexplicably. He got up, opened the bedside table, and
took out an apple, then got out of bed and handed it to Taya. “It’s just what
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI left for you at night.”
He knew that she was always hungry at night, so he habitually left
some food for her.

Taya took it and sat by the bedside, quietly eating the big apple in
her hands.
“Johnny.”
As Johnny turned back to his own bed, Taya suddenly called out
to him.
“Thank you.”
If it weren’t for him accompanying and taking care of her, Taya would have had a hard time making it this far.
Seeing the sincere gratitude in her eyes, Johnny waved his hand nonchalantly. “After we get out, give me all the
prize money you
win.”
“Do you need money?”
“I don’t, but a few billion dollars won’t hurt, it’s enough for my future she–wolf to spend.”
Taya smiled. “Do you have someone in mind?”
Johnny looked at Taya’s smiling face in the dim moonlight. “Yes.”
“Who is it?”
