The Deadly Game (Infinite Flow)

The modern-day installment of "Fatal Game", "When the Dream Ends", is now serializing...

Premise: Cellist x washed-up Best Actress

[Come visit my Weibo homepage, loves~ The author has clearly stated in the author's notes that the cut chapters have been extensively revised!]

[This story follows an infinite-flow setup~ The romance is woven throughout, too.]

A sharp-tempered, witty, top-tier special agent and young sniper vs. a cool, composed, highly intelligent, mature female coroner who never puts down her knife

1v1, two mature women

*Shi Miao was on a mission. The instant she pulled the trigger, a sharp pain struck the back of her head, and her whole body went numb. She passed out. When she woke, she found herself in the cafeteria of a high school...

Shi Miao, who ranked dead last year after year, quietly listened as those around her joked about her. Everyone, from upperclassmen to underclassmen, knew all about her "achievements."

"Wasn't this supposed to be a game for geniuses? Why did they drag Shi Miao into it...?"

Everyone was baffled.

"Exactly. All she'll do is hold us back..."

A girl sitting in the corner rested her long legs on a nearby chair and drawled,

"You've done a good job controlling your score."

As she spoke, she stood and held out a hand to Shi Miao, who was still stunned.

"Qiu Yudi. I look forward to working with you."

The top scorer in the college entrance exams. Shi Miao had heard of her, though they had never faced off.

This cool, androgynously dressed girl had noticed Shi Miao's score manipulation technique. From then on, Shi Miao had regarded her as a dangerous person.

*She never expected that they would both be transported into the same game.

Shi Miao: "They say you can admire from afar, but mustn't touch. I think I can touch, though~"

Qiu Yudi: "So when you said you didn't understand, you were lying to me."

As the game continued, the number of players dwindled. By the final round, only a handful remained, and the prize money had risen to a billion dollars, nearing its cap.

If only one person can make it out of this game, will it be Shi Miao or Qiu Yudi? Or will it be someone else?

In the autopsy room at the hospital...

*"I didn't expect you to be so skilled at removing bones, Coroner Qiu."

"What, want to try a rib? I think it's the most beautiful part of the human body besides the skull."

*"You're proficient with firearms and so good in a fight. Why didn't you become a police officer?"

"It's something to think about."

"In the end, you're still King."

[This story is entirely fictional. There is no real-life inspiration. Please don't read too much into it.]

[There will probably be a second modern-day installment.]
