Regarding My Transmigration as a Passerby Villainess

"It's been taken care of. Please settle the commission fee."

The young man, dressed in a black suit and wearing leather gloves, bowed slightly toward the black-haired girl.

The girl had a beautiful face and a curvaceous figure, her skin resembling precious white porcelain.

Her ink-colored eyes were cast downward, silently watching everything before her.

Chen Xi had transmigrated, transmigrated into the manga she had just been about to read—[Legend].

Not only that, but she had also become a female character in the manga with the same name as her, a background villain who served to kick off the story.

Having just merged with a portion of her memories, she already understood the current progress of the plot.

It was exactly the moment when "she" had hired a hitman to sink Lin Yue into the sea.

Facing Lin Yue, who possessed the ability to infinitely perform Regression, only one thought remained in Chen Xi's mind.

Sigh, is reconciliation still possible?

With a calm expression, she looked at the boundless deep sea and spoke slowly: "Can she still be fished out?"

The attendant was slightly stunned by the question.

"She has already been submerged for two minutes," he explained.

"Unless Lin Yue is a Transcendent, there is zero possibility of survival."

The moment the attendant finished speaking, the world before her lost its color in the blink of an eye, turning into a shade of gray and black.

It was Lin Yue activating her Regression ability.

"Sigh."

Chen Xi let out a long sigh. It was over.

Her consciousness grew dim, and when she opened her eyes again, the scene before her had completely changed.

Inside the classroom, the sun was bright.

Everyone, having just finished their professional course, was packing up their textbooks and walking out of the classroom, chatting and laughing.

Looking at everything before her, Chen Xi's pupils constricted as she finally regained her senses.

Her mind was still flooded with memories of sinking Lin Yue into the sea.

An incredible thought rose in Chen Xi's heart—she hadn't lost her memories?

She was unaffected by the memory erasure caused by Lin Yue's time Regression!

Without hesitation, she immediately went online to book a flight ticket.

Are you kidding? She, fight Lin Yue?

Although she had only skimmed the surface, Chen Xi roughly understood the personality of this god of slaughter.

In the original work, she really had been chopped into fine pieces by the original body.

As for killing Lin Yue now while she hadn't yet developed her powers?

Chen Xi looked at the girl with golden hair and a reserved temperament, silently vetoing that plan.

The waters of this world were too deep; without Lin Yue, the plot would basically lead to the Doomsday.

But she couldn't run either, or she would be settled with by Lin Yue sooner or later.

By that time, there would be even less chance to resist.

What to do?

Chen Xi's brain was spinning at high speed.

In order to survive, she even temporarily cast aside the fact that she had become a woman.

First, she had to "distance" herself from the act.

The one who killed Lin Yue in the main narrative absolutely could not be "Chen Xi."

Director personality split? The one who killed Lin Yue was just her second personality?

No, that required too much acting skill; she would likely be seen through due to some small habits in daily life.

Seeing that Lin Yue had already packed her things and stood up to leave, Chen Xi followed her while deep in thought.

Lin Yue held her books, glancing from time to time at the glass corridor beside her.

She saw Chen Xi clutching her textbooks, silently trailing not far behind her.

Although Chen Xi's movements were covert, in the eyes of Lin Yue, who had been paying attention to her all along, her intentions were far too obvious.

That damn bastard, why is she following me!

Could it be that she still retains her memories?

Lin Yue clenched her palms, constantly guarding against the black-haired girl suddenly lashing out.

She had only awakened the ability of Time Regression; her physical fitness had not improved in the slightest.

If Chen Xi truly retained her memories, then her own situation was perilous.

Rage climbed within the heart of Lin Yue.

There was one thing she had never been able to figure out.

She and this Chen Xi were clearly nothing more than passing acquaintances, so why did she target her at every turn?

She would even send people to knock her unconscious three days from now, kidnap her, and toss her into the sea inside a sack.

She would never forget the suffocating sensation of seawater flooding her nose and mouth, that feeling of powerlessness as she watched her own life slip away...

Lin Yue bit her lip lightly and turned to look at Chen Xi, who was striding toward her.

As expected! This person had also retained her memories!

Lin Yue had just intended to raise her hand to resist when she was already hoisted into the air by Chen Xi, who gripped her throat with one hand.

So fast! She couldn't resist at all...

As luck would have it, a water dispenser at the corner of the corridor blocked the two of them from view.

A sense of despair spread through her heart.

Lin Yue used all her strength to strike at Chen Xi's arm, yet this force could not shake the latter in the slightest.

She stared fixedly at Chen Xi; the black-haired girl was expressionless, the pressure in her hand gradually increasing.

Suddenly, Chen Xi released her arm, and Lin Yue fell from the air, gasping for breath.

"Haa—haa—"

"I..." Chen Xi's hands trembled, her expression flustered as she looked at Lin Yue, who was curled up on the ground in pain.

With a tone filled with guilt, she whispered an apology before hurriedly fleeing around the corner.

As soon as she left, someone with sharp eyes immediately spotted Lin Yue collapsed on the ground.

"Xiao Yue, what happened to you?" A classmate helped Lin Yue up.

"I'm fine." Lin Yue touched her neck, where red marks still lingered, her eyes unreadable.

Chen Xi was not right.

Outside the school, Chen Xi, having escaped the scene of the incident, instantly shed her flustered appearance.

She recalled her performance with a calm face, checking for any oversights.

The answer was, none.

Her expression had been just right, and given the critical situation at the time, if Lin Yue could still see through it, then she would accept her defeat.

Her plan had successfully taken its first step—to play the role of an innocent girl with hidden secrets, manipulated by others, and unable to act of her own volition.

Her goal was to leave a deep impression in Lin Yue's heart.

That way, even if she died in the future, Lin Yue would remember their past ties and save her when she regressed time.

Chen Xi hadn't walked two steps before she discovered something strange about her body.

She wasn't used to walking in a skirt; it felt chilly.

Suppressing the discomfort, Chen Xi followed the sensations in her memory and headed home.

A mechanical electronic voice echoed in her mind, and Chen Xi froze in place.

What the hell?

Chen Xi really wanted to check this "CG" thing right there on the street, but to avoid revealing any flaws, she held herself back.

It wasn't until she took the bus back to that familiar, old residential complex and climbed the dusty, narrow stairs that a few blurry memories flashed by once more.

Chen Xi lifted the cumbersome black dress; she found it hard to imagine that the original owner actually lived in a place like this.

Walking up to the rusted iron door, the girl subconsciously took out the key and unlocked it.

Pushing the door open, the house wasn't as dilapidated as Chen Xi had imagined; instead, it looked clean and tidy, full of the atmosphere of daily life.

Lying on the sofa, Chen Xi began to investigate the source of the electronic voice from earlier.

As soon as the thought crossed her mind, a black panel with white text and pale gold borders appeared before her.

[Exhibition Hall]

A photo of her holding Lin Yue by the throat with one hand appeared before Chen Xi's eyes.

In the image, the black-haired girl's expression was one of struggle.
