Chapter 227 Try this talisman on her

"Chen Yu."

Zhang Wanyue swallowed hard and let out a cough. "Uh... Mengmeng isn't that smart, but she's never lazy. If you tell her to massage your legs, she'll do it. Whatever you tell her to do, she never complains, so..."

"Brother Chen Yu."

Lu Xiaoyu also bravely stood up. "Sister Mengmeng... she's not a bad person. Please don't kick her out..."

Li Mengyao, Zuo Shi, Deng Yuxin, Yang Kexin, and the others all began to plead for her as well.

Even Liu Manqing couldn't bear to watch any longer, feeling a bit of pity for Wang Mengmeng.

But Chen Yu raised his right hand and made a "shh" gesture, and all the noise in the carriage ceased instantly.

No one dared to speak another word.

Wang Mengmeng wiped away her tears. "Brother Chen Yu, I'm really begging you..."

"Class Monitor."

Chen Yu suddenly turned his head, giving Zhang Wanyue a start.

It had been a long time since she had seen Chen Yu look so fierce; she had almost forgotten his nickname.

—The murderer.

Perhaps, this was who he really was all along.

"Chen Yu, what is it..."

Zhang Wanyue asked nervously.

Chen Yu asked with a smile, "Didn't I ask you to get a few sets of clothes earlier? Did you get them?"

Zhang Wanyue's face flushed instantly, her gaze darting quickly across the others in the carriage.

"Um, I only managed to get one set, but with so many people here..."

Chen Yu explained, "I'm not asking you to wear it. I'm asking Wang Mengmeng to wear it."

"Huh?"

Zhang Wanyue was stunned for a moment before realizing she had overthought things. She quickly pulled the clothes out from her personal backpack.

Black fabric with white lace trim.

Wang Mengmeng's pupils dilated as she looked at the outfit. "A... a maid outfit?"

Zhang Wanyue coughed. "Uh... this was one of the styles Chen Yu asked me to find, but there was very little stock in the market... I could only buy this one for now..."

Wang Mengmeng stared at the clothes before her.

She was naturally curvaceous, and the hem of this skirt...

"Can I... can I not wear it?"

Wang Mengmeng asked in a small voice, "Brother Chen Yu, there are so many people here. Can we pick a time when no one else is around..."

"No."

Chen Yu spoke coldly, leaning back against his seat with his eyes closed.

The entire carriage fell into silence.

Everyone simultaneously turned their heads to look out the window at the heavy rain.

Liu Manqing lowered her voice to a whisper. "Mengyao, what's wrong with Xiao Yu? I don't remember him being like this before?"

Li Mengyao whispered back, "He's usually like this."

Liu Manqing shook her head. "Xiao Yu used to be so well-behaved. When he came over for dinner..."

"Alright, Auntie!"

Li Mengyao said seriously, "Do you know how much he's changed since the apocalypse? When he kills people, he doesn't even blink. Everyone in the Living Area takes a detour when they hear his name!"

"Do you know Zhang Zixuan? I told you about her before—the president of the Debate Society, the goddess in the eyes of every guy at school. She was... by Chen Yu..."

Listening to Li Mengyao's words,

Liu Manqing's beautiful eyes blinked as she looked at Chen Yu again.

Could such a short time in the apocalypse really change a person so much?

"Fine!"

"I understand, Brother Chen Yu!"

Wang Mengmeng gritted her teeth, picked up the clothes, and began to change.

After the sound of rustling fabric,

Wang Mengmeng had undergone a complete transformation.

The black dress clung to her body, the waistline pulled tight. A white apron was tied at her waist, its bow drooping crookedly behind her. A lace headband was clipped to the top of her head, creating a stark contrast against her round, doll-like face.

She didn't know where to put her hands,

So she eventually tucked them behind her back.

"Brother Chen Yu."

She stood before Chen Yu. "I'm finished changing."

Chen Yu opened his eyes and patted his thigh. "Continue. This will be your daily attire from now on. Unless I tell you to take it off, you're not allowed to change..."

"Okay..."

Wang Mengmeng didn't dare talk back and could only squat down to continue massaging his legs.

She had to be thankful that the bus was full of girls, which reduced her shame slightly.

Chen Yu naturally paid her no mind.

He brought up his chat interface. His private message list had accumulated quite a few—some from acquaintances, many from strangers.

But there was one chat he clicked into as if possessed.

He scrolled up rapidly. After a long while, Chen Yu realized he couldn't reach the very top, so he just started reading from where he was.

[Lin Yue: Chen Yu, I switched to a van.]

[Lin Yue: There are four people in the car, three guys and one girl. They gave me the innermost seat, saying it's safest for a young girl to sit inside. They're actually quite nice~]

[Lin Yue: One of the guys sitting next to me keeps looking at me. He asked if I have a boyfriend. I said yes. He asked who it was, but I didn't tell him it was you.]

Chen Yu: "..."

[Lin Yue: See, today while he was pretending to grab something, the back of his hand brushed against my arm. Ugh, so disgusting.]

[Lin Yue: Chen Yu, he's dead.]

[Lin Yue: The car owner also came to see me tonight. He said since my boyfriend isn't around anyway, he'll treat me well from now on. His fingers were about to touch me, so I snapped them one by one.]

Chen Yu felt there was no need to finish reading Lin Yue's diary.

He then skimmed through it briefly and scrolled directly to the three most recent messages.

[Lin Yue: Now I'm the only one left in the car. It's so boring with no one to talk to. I'm feeling emo~]

[Lin Yue: Chen Yu, I had another dream last night. I dreamt of the Villa, the hallway, and that Ghost Face. It was dragging me out by my ankle, and I kept waiting for you to save me... but you never came... I was so sad in the dream...]

[Lin Yue: If only we were still in the same car. I'll endure a bit more, as long as I don't let you find out...]

Chen Yu stopped scrolling, narrowed his eyes, and sent a message.

[Chen Yu: Who knows, maybe we'll have a chance to be in the same car?]

He certainly wasn't bored enough to just flirt with Lin Yue.

The point of doing this

Lay in the Wangchuan Talisman,

And in the high-multiplier returns.

Back on Wuyin Island, Zhang Shouyi had said that he would definitely need this talisman.

But he had thought about it for a very long time and couldn't think of any use for it.

Until he thought of Lin Yue.

[By placing the Wangchuan Talisman on a target, one can gradually strip away all of the target's memories and seal them within the talisman. The sealed individual will gradually forget who they are and what they have experienced, starting their life anew.]

What if the Wangchuan Talisman could lock away all of Lin Yue's memories and reshape her personality?

By then, would the car gain a...

Kind, brave, and sophisticated SSS-rank combatant?

After all, for someone who has lost all their memories, their final personality depends entirely on their environment.

However, while the fantasy was beautiful,

The reality was that a woman like Lin Yue was very clever and wouldn't be easily caught by him.

"I have to find a way to try this talisman on her."
