How to Raise a Fussy Snake

Ping Yue made a deal with someone: they would help her kill a person, and she would take part in a pet interaction game for them.

A pet game, right? Cats, dogs, rabbits. The weirdest thing she could imagine was pigs, horses, cows, or sheep. But could someone tell her why it was snakes?!

"Welcome to the Serpent's Paradise. By standing here, you agree to take part in the game. Please follow these rules once you enter:

One: Choose a snake to be your game partner.

Two: You must stay with your game partner at all times. If the snake dies, you die."

Three: Only one person can leave this game alive."

"Dear, have fun playing~~"

The snake pit opened. Giant pythons writhed with excitement, and tens of thousands of snakes slithered toward them, their cold, forked tongues hissing furiously.

Of all the people to run into, Ping Yue spotted a completely black baby snake darting out of the writhing mass. It raised its sharp tail and lunged at her, its vertical pupils blood-red and its eyes full of menace. It was clearly a vicious snake, the most vicious kind.

Once a snake chose you, you couldn't change partners.

She didn't want a vicious snake like that! She wanted a gentle, obedient one.

Ping Yue slapped it back into the pit. The vicious snake lifted its narrow, flattened neck, bared its fangs, and let out an angry "Hiss!" at her.

Ping Yue: "???"

Fine, a vicious snake was all right. She could tame it, and it might become a good ally in battle. But why was this clearly dangerous snake so delicate and needy?

It cried when she touched it.

It blushed when she stroked it.

Whenever it opened its mouth, it wanted to say, "Mama, hungry. Food, please."

Ping Yue: Go die.

A blood-soaked scene. Bodies lay scattered, and the knife was in her hand.

The criminal investigation team stormed in. They didn't give her a chance to explain, sentencing her directly to 300 years in prison.

Her neighbor across the hall was a little mushroom, a professional pickpocket. Her neighbor on the left was a computer, a top-tier hacker. Her neighbor on the right was an assassin who had once topped the most-wanted list.

A rainy day, no power or internet, the security fence breached, the trackers disabled. It was the perfect time to break out.

But they were planning something much bigger:

[Kill the prison warden.]
