Peeping and Suspicion

"Hah..."

After Rule Disruption, everything in her mind fell silent once more, swallowed by darkness.

The bridesmaid had already fallen asleep, faint breaths escaping through her nose and mouth.

Yet Yin Ge, trapped within the bridesmaid's body, did not sleep. Her eyes were closed as thoughts churned through her mind.

With the groomsman being killed tonight, she had to save him.

When life and death were at stake, most people were selfish. If they had a way to save someone, many would likely use it on themselves.

But in the long run, saving one's own people meant saving oneself.

So Yin Ge still chose to save the groomsman.

The groomsman's knowledge of the Son of Heaven Game was the most accurate.

At the same time, Yin Ge knew that the Feudal Lord groomsman had not used the Partition Law last night. Otherwise, he could naturally have remained invincible and would not have needed Yin Ge to save him.

She clearly remembered that on her first night, she had not entered that place where she could sense the Rule Disruption Law.

That was because the groomsman had already used the Partition Law to protect himself, which was why he had not died.

And since the groomsman had not died, Yin Ge had no opportunity to use Rule Disruption.

But tonight, Yin Ge had received news of the groomsman's death and used Rule Disruption to save him.

This at least showed that the groomsman had given the Partition Law to someone else, and the Killer had taken advantage of that chance to strike at him.

After sorting out these two matters, Yin Ge shifted the focus of her thoughts to the Son of Heaven Godhead.

Aside from the Bride's mother, both the child and the groom claimed to be the Son of Heaven.

Logically speaking, the groom had died, yet the game had not ended. The child had to be the Killer.

But the groom's bizarre antics were truly hard to explain.

The Bride's mother was most likely a Commoner Divinity. If the groom really was the Son of Heaven, why did he say that the Bride's mother had no Godhead?

What if the groom held another identity and deliberately claimed the Son of Heaven identity in order to frame the Bride's mother, with whom he had a grudge?

That seemed plausible too.

What a mess. It was all too chaotic!

Analyzing things based on Godhead information alone would never straighten it out. There was still far too little information.

The main information and clues were still hidden within the events themselves.

It seemed she would have to observe the daytime events first, identify who was suspicious, and then analyze it through discussion... It felt as if a massive stone weighed on Yin Ge's heart.

In that torment, time passed exceptionally slowly.

Yin Ge did not know when she fell asleep.

Only when sunlight spilled into the room through the window did the bridesmaid finally open her eyes, bringing Yin Ge awake as well.

What time was it... Yin Ge looked at the clock again. Just as she had previously concluded, the body would be controlled at nine in the morning.

The bridesmaid changed into a new outfit, walked to the window, and looked herself over in the mirror.

Yin Ge's gaze lingered on the mirror, but she noticed nothing unusual.

But soon, the bridesmaid seemed to see something. Her gaze shifted from the mirror to the window, and she stared motionlessly at the building opposite.

Yin Ge's gaze followed hers away from the mirror and toward the building across from them.

Suddenly, Yin Ge saw the groom.

At that moment, the groom, who lived in the neighboring room, was entirely reflected into Yin Ge's view by the sunlight bouncing off the windows of the opposite building.

Yin Ge's heart sank.

The groom still appeared. That meant that even after he had been identified and died yesterday, it did not affect the people during the day.

That was a good thing. It meant that aside from the Bride, the others who had appeared in this event would not vanish, which would help them determine the situation.

And yet, the bridesmaid did not seem surprised in the slightest.

She folded her arms and stared intently at the groom across the way.

Could the groom be having an affair with the bridesmaid...? Ripples spread through Yin Ge's heart.

After staring at the groom for so long, it was hard to say there was nothing going on between the two.

However, Yin Ge also knew that the bridesmaid could not be the one who killed the bride, at the very least. After all, she had the [High Minister] divine status.

But as she watched, Yin Ge discovered that the groom was not looking at the bridesmaid. He seemed to be holding someone in his arms...

Bride?

Yin Ge seemed to understand.

This room was where the Bride had arranged for her to stay, but why had she been assigned this room?

Yin Ge rapidly considered and deduced possibilities, but every answer she came up with for the moment was strange.

Either the Bride was voyeuristic and wanted to spy on the bridesmaid's every move.

Or the Bride was sick and wanted the bridesmaid to watch her every move.

Of course, there was also an extremely small possibility that the Bride and bridesmaid were the real couple, so the Bride was afraid the bridesmaid would get jealous and deliberately let her watch, showing that nothing was happening between her and the groom.

But the latter possibility was extremely unlikely.

The greatest possibility was the Bride's voyeurism and desire for control.

One possibility arising from that was that the Bride suspected her groom might be having an affair with the bridesmaid.

But regardless, the Bride had arranged for the bridesmaid to stay in this room for a reason.

Before she could make sense of it, however, the bridesmaid turned away from the window and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Soon, the bridesmaid emerged from the bathroom. At the corner, a tiny figure darted out from the direction of the bedroom.

Fortunately, the bridesmaid stopped in time. She crouched down and asked gently, "Why are you running so fast? Did you sneak your sister's phone again to play with it?"

The child stuck out her tongue and hid the Bride's phone behind her back before pleading cutely, "Don't tell my sister, okay?"

The bridesmaid laughed and lightly scraped the child's nose. "Got it, got it."

After receiving her promise, the child happily ran toward her parents' room.

"Hey, wait." The bridesmaid pulled the child back. "Tell me, did your sister and brother-in-law make up after their fight yesterday?"

She cared that much about the Bride and groom's relationship? Yin Ge's heart sank to the bottom.

The child thought for a moment, then nodded. "They slept together and played together, so they probably made up."

Hearing that, the bridesmaid nodded slightly and said no more as she headed toward the room.

Almost nothing noteworthy happened that morning. Then, in the afternoon, the groom's younger sister showed up uninvited.

She looped her arm through the bridesmaid's and swayed it from side to side, bringing up the matter of switching rooms again. "Sis, switch rooms with me, please?"

Unable to withstand the groom's younger sister's relentless pestering, the bridesmaid glanced back at the room's window. "Fine, we'll switch. I'll pack my things first."

That behavior immediately put Yin Ge on alert.

Why had the bridesmaid stubbornly refused to switch rooms before, only to suddenly agree now? Had she realized that the Bride was spying on her?

And the groom's younger sister—why did she insist on switching rooms after being refused? Was it really only because the Wi-Fi signal was stronger?

Before Yin Ge could figure out those two questions, the groom's younger sister happily dragged over the suitcase she had packed in advance.

But just as the groom's younger sister was about to enter the room, the Bride grabbed her hand.

"What are you doing?!" The Bride's voice was loud, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

"S-Sis-in-law, we agreed to switch rooms." The groom's younger sister seemed frightened by the Bride's tone, her voice filled with fear and grievance.

The bridesmaid hurried out to explain. "It's only a room. If she wants to switch, let her."

At that, the Bride frowned and shot the bridesmaid a sharp look. "No!"

That look seemed to sting the bridesmaid, leaving her unable to speak for a moment.

"Why not?" The groom's younger sister became angry and blurted out:

"Sis-in-law, you don't want me staying next to you because you're afraid I'll find out about you and another man. That's why you're feeling guilty, isn't it?!"
