My name is Xu Zebai, a fast traveler who travels through multiple worlds. On the surface, I am a simple, kind-hearted and uncontroversial young man. I love sweets, like to help the weak, and I frown with distress when I see others being hurt. In fact, everyone in the world is played around by me.
My quick mission is simple: enter each world, pretend to be the most harmless character, gain the trust of the target person, and then make them taste the pain of trust collapse at the most critical moment. The more people trust me, the more painful it will be when they are betrayed, and I rely on their emotional fluctuations to complete system tasks.
This time, however, I ran into trouble. This girl named Lin Luxi has extremely keen intuition. She always looks at me with her clear eyes and says the second before I am about to complete my betrayal: "Xu Zebai, are you lying again?"
What's even more troublesome is that I find that I am slowly losing the basic qualities of a fast traveler - maintaining an absolutely rational distance from the mission goal. Whenever Lin Luxi smiled and handed me a piece of strawberry cake, I began to hesitate whether to continue the planned betrayal.
But the system's countdown will not stop and the task must be completed. Trust is crumbling, but this time, I don't know if it's her trust that's crumbling, or the defense I've been pretending for years.
