Surprise! The Supposed Talent Show Was Actually–?!Ch122.2 - Montespan

He took a deep inhale of the smell of big boss inside the instance, lying in one place for one second, then shifting to another spot the next, moving around everywhere restlessly. He vaguely seemed to have returned back to the R-Code base when he’d still been able to bully the young little angelic Wei Shi and was so happy he stopped just short of letting out happy soap bubbles.

“Stop moving.” The man’s voice was hoarse.

Wu Jin instantly became well-behaved and gave a slightly nasal sound of acknowledgement––

Wei Shi’s gaze was deep. He wanted to wake him up, yet also couldn’t bear to do so. He could only rub twice against the side of the youth’s neck in revenge, the rough, callused fingertips swiping across the healed bite mark. Unexpectedly, Vera, who was next to the fireplace in the distance, woke up bleary eyed at this time, pushing aside the biography that had been over her head. 3toiRf

Wu Jin woke up again with a whoosh.

 

The youth’s eyes were wide and round. Seeing that Vera was about to lift up the biography, he was anxious to pull away from the big boss. Unexpectedly, his ankle was still caught on the big boss’s leg, and his entire center of gravity was unstable, causing him to topple over from the bottom of the chair.

Wei Shi was quick to reach out and catch him, but Wu Jin was like a salted fish as he rolled off in a daze, falling with a thump onto the carpet.

Wei Shi: “……”

Vera woke up completely in an instant. Seeing that Wu Jin had fallen miserably onto the ground while Wei Shi sat in his chair and looked at him, she became furious, “Isn’t it just that he couldn’t solve the problem! What are you kicking him for! What’ll you do if you break Little Witch!”

She glanced at the camera and saw that the recording lights were off, then added happily, “Scum man!” Rbyiz2

 

A quarter of an hour later, Wu Jin’s lips and mouth were dry as he finally finished explaining. Vera hesitated, then said, “How nice was it when we had just started looking for paintings! Little Witch, don’t be afraid, we managed to drive away the great demon king Wei Yan, and we can also drive away Wei Shi!”

Wu Jin was about to continue explaining when the corner of his gaze accidentally swept down over the rectangles––

  kDvxdZ

He suddenly went still.

“Look for paintings… the rectangles are the frames.”

 

Vera was at a loss, “What frames––” hxdVoF

Wu Jin spoke quickly, “The Franco-Dutch War, the Great Alliance War, and so on are the themes of the paintings, and rectangles are how the frames are arranged. There is only one place in the entire Palace of Versailles where the entire history of the French wars and coups are described in oil paintings.”

“Wait a minute, Madame de Montespan’s information…” Wu Jin reached out in a frenzy, “The deal! The transaction!”

Chu Chu comforted him, “Don’t worry! The big god will give it to you!”

 

The group of them went back to the long table. Not only Vera, but also Chu Chu and Wu Jin all took the chance to sleep in the dark. During the high-intensity competition period of the show, they were only able to get 3 or 4 hours of sleep at most during each day and night cycle. AoFyu6

They slept until someone knocked on the table.

Wu Jin opened his eyes in a confused daze.

 

The big boss handed Chu Chu a bunch of keys, “Take Miss Vera to the guest room.” KaMPgB

Chu Chu chirped an agreement and went to shake Vera awake. Even before the White Rose had woken up, Wu Jin was already wrapped up in a blanket.

 

The struggling Wu Jin: “……”

In the next second, the door to the master bedroom opened, and the wrapped Wu Jin roll was tossed directly onto the bed. PMdx7K

 

“!!!” Wu Jin finally came back to his senses and gathered his spirits to ask the question, “Did you find it––”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Mm.” Wei Shi ordered, “Be good, go to sleep.”

  7oGrZg

He didn’t think that when he turned back, Wu Jin would be lying on the bed in a diagonal swimming posture, his small round face rubbing against the edge of the bed, looking as though he was floating in the clouds. He was obviously oblivious and having a good time.

Wu Jin forced himself to open up his bleary, sleepy eyes and speak, and he even slapped at the bed in threat, “Montespan… information…”

Wei Shi glanced at him, his face expressionless, “Take off your clothes.”

  gkDuyp

Wu Jin, “Wh-what!”

Wei Shi: “After you get into the quilt, Montespan’s information will be given to you in the form of a bedtime story.”

 

Wu Jin’s thoughts were dull, and he felt that this wasn’t an unfavorable deal, so he slowly took off his combat jacket, rolled around onto the bed, and tossed his pair of waterproof combat pants to the ground. anCPJ8

Then, he spread out flat and didn’t move.

Wei Shi tucked the tired Wu Jin into the quilt, copping a few feels of the pale, slender legs as a reward as he did so.

 

Wu Jin was pinched and cried out, “Hey!!” YK2mXN

Wei Shi opened up Louis XIV’s clothing cabinet and changed into Louis XIV’s nightwear with an extreme sense of the hero’s consciousness. Just before the candle lights went out, Wu Jin tugged at the sleeve of his nightgown again.

Wu Jin: “Bedtime story, bedtime story!”

 

Wei Shi nodded acknowledgement and went to the bookshelf to pull out a book, “Louis XIV’s most famous mistress was Madame de Montespan. The king fell in love with the lady at first sight during a ball. The Grand Trianon Palace was a gift from the King to Montespan.” SACxLN

The dim candlelight was placed at the head of the bed. When Wu Jin saw the big boss leaning over, he quickly lifted up a corner of the quilt.

The man’s body temperature was hot, and the narrow space inside the quilt seemed to have been scorched by the sun.

Wu Jin wiggled closer to him. QtdK0r

 

“Later on, the King’s favor shifted. Montespan was accused of…”

Wu Jin continued to wriggle towards Wei Shi.

  12X YE

He closed the book and turned off the lights, “Alright, sleep.”

Wu Jin stilled, and rolled back across all the space he’d wriggled closer in indignation, “You cheater! Where’s the key information!”

Wei Shi expressionlessly tricked the rabbit, “The rest will be delivered in the form of a wake-up story. You should sleep.”

  U4V70x

Wu Jin still had more to say, but he was caught by surprise when Wei Shi held him down and gave him a punishing, shallow kiss.

The room was dark, and Wu Jin could only act like a blind little guy as he grumbled and struggled.

 

The big boss’s voice was hoarse, sweeping through his ear and causing it to go numb with electricity as he spoke, “The aftereffects of the emotional lock. How many hours a day did Doctor Zhou Nan tell you to sleep?” law4g9

Wu Jin’s heart was guilty, “7 hours… but the game is a special situation…”

 

Wei Shi was indifferent, “Didn’t I come and solve this special situation for you.”

Wu Jin was stunned. He suddenly thought about how, for this fifth elimination match, the big boss had changed his style, clearing out the Grand Trianon Palace as soon as he landed on the ground. This level of ferociousness was totally inconsistent with his previous hiding and remaining in the background–– kdAGJ9

 

Wei Shi gave his final ultimatum, “Sleep.”

Wu Jin quickly closed his eyes, and his eyes moved slightly beneath his eyelids until the heated aura gradually invaded every square inch of space. The teenager smacked his lips and finally couldn’t help falling into sleep.

Ten minutes later, the Wu Jin who was almost asleep once again wriggled a little, and only when he was stuck together against Wei Shi did he finally curl up in a comfortable ball.

Wei Shi bowed his head to look at Wu Jin.

Countless voices clamored in his mind––

“I’ve never seen a case like this before.” QtDvm3

“The best scabbard.”

“The test results have come out, and the values are totally different from that of ordinary people. If he’s willing, we would like to follow up––and find out if Mister Wu was given a large amount of MHCC agents prior to the age of 15. To be precise, it was an excessive and abusive amount.”

 

The door to the King’s bedroom that had been left slightly ajar squeaked shut. 3ZbSNc

Wu Jin didn’t realize it at first, but his breathing started to become anxious a few minutes later.

 

“Relax.” Wei Shi kissed him on the forehead and pulled him into his arms.

He waited until Wu Jin had gone back to sleep before getting up to open the side door slightly. lGQEeB

 

The night breeze swept in through the door.

 

There were still residual traces of drugs, his hearing was too sharp, and he had slight claustrophobia. 7iTpJb

Wei Shi’s eyes were as sharp as bayonets.


Juurensha: Clearing out an entire instance just to give Little Witch time to sleep….even Vera should approve!
xiin: it’s super sweet. does anyone else think that Wei Shi is actually a huge marshmallow inside? omg. omg!

  1. “The test results have come out, and the values are totally different from that of ordinary people. If he’s willing, we would like to follow up––and find out if Mister Wu was given a large amount of MHCC agents prior to the age of 15. To be precise, it was an excessive and abusive amount.”

    Wait what?

  2. So… is Little Witch really a former part of R-Code Base and all his memories of the past life are just really hallucinations???

    Aaaaah, the back story is making me exciteeeed hohoho

    Thank you for the translations~ ❤

    • OMG MAYBE, wait no..because his memories are too detailed and they can’t be hallucinations since he got his dancing skills and he doesn’t have a citizen card thing, remember? I think it’s more like when he was younger he had an over-dose of that drug because he was a part of the R-Code Base when it first started.

      Like the R-Code Base started a long time ago and was discontinued into the present world/time in the novel. Also, if I’m correct, didn’t Little Witch also have hallucinations and such before he went into Big Boss’ conscious?

      • From what I understand, you are saying; to make my words simple since I’m not good in Eng:

        R -Code Base have been exist in 2005(example ok since author didn’t tell what year is in the chap 1 before WJ got transfered to the future) which is when Liltle Witch was a child. And when he grown up (probably he escaped?) , he somehow forgot or his memories been sealed off.

        But I’m not sure where ml got this ‘ Countless voices clamored in his mind––

        “I’ve never seen a case like this before.”

        “The best scabbard.”

        “The test results have come out, and the values are totally different from that of ordinary people. If he’s willing, we would like to follow up––and find out if Mister Wu was given a large amount of MHCC agents prior to the age of 15. To be precise, it was an excessive and abusive amount.”

        Perhaps their technolgy in his lab allowed him to see Litle Witch memories.

        Something like that~

        • Oh right, now that I remember after seeing your comments. Ml finds out about that when Mc went into Big Boss’ consciousness which mean they shared their each memories

          Wait if Ml investigate whole situation, then he will finds out that Mc is much MORE older than him?!?!!! Gahahaha 😂😂

        • I thought that the scabbard thing was wu jin being the scabbard to wei shi the sword. I thought he was Just remembering comments made after they got him out.

        • I thought the voices clamoring where the Floating City scientists and doctors briefing Wei Shi on what they found after the Little Witch brought him out of his coma.

          • That’s what I think so too. The voices should be the Floating City’s scientists and doctors.

            I had considered the ‘previous life’ being Wu Jin’s hallucinations when he was locked up in R-Code base, but then that wouldn’t explain his dancing skills and the weathered idol show application form he had in the beginning of this novel. I kinda wish they are hallucinations tho; that will make Wu Jin’s circumstances sadder, when he realises what he love was all just in his head. (I’m mean, ik. (╥﹏╥)

      • Late now, but, is it that R code base didn’t actually shut down, it just shifted. Wu Jin was raised in what he thought was a thousand years ago but was really an experimental entertainment base and he’s genetically engineered to be the perfect entertainer/spy? Or as a companion for the GM soldiers? I’m so excited by all the possibilities!

      • But based on all the advanced technology it can be possible. His memories could have been altered. About his dancing skills. Let me give you an example, when he went inside Wei shi’s memories and he took the lock for him even tho it was just memories he was still affected in real life.

    • Possible that MHCC is used to abuse Wu Jin (his experiment direction) in large amount, making other test subjects got sparse amount. Then the price of MHCC is monopolised thus raised insanely. R Code unable to procure enough quantity of MHCC, Wu Jin is lost somewhere along the line by them (someone help Wu Jin escape), the near crazy test subjects that is denied MHCC drugs rebelled, thus R Code disbanded.

  3. I forgot… what are MHCC agents? Is this why Little Witch’s mental stability (?) is so good?

    • Don’t know maybe litte witch was some another superhuman project- only ment to calm the human weapons 🤔 that’s y hid mental stability is good but then he should be the only survivor cuz no one knows about this project 👁️👄👁️

  4. hmm so WuJin is def a genetically modified human but rather than a weapon he’s a scabbard.There are loopholes in his memory, his past life wasn’t very clear but his muscle memory abt dancing is real…and how did he accidentally appear on the show?so is it all planned?does this hv anything to do wit ShaoYu?or even White Moonlight?I mean do they just tk trainee without checking and nobody is suspicious?

    • Shao Yu shouldn’t know Wu Jin existence yet. Remember after R Code disbandment, Shao Yu went to R Code Entertainment and become their first champion for several seasons before disappearing? I think Shao Yu is infiltrating R Code Ent. at time, to find more clues on how to unlock his emotional lock. It should be from R Code Ent. he gained clues, went hiding and now heard about Floating City treatment programs. In Floating City, there are also ex-researchers of R Code like Researcher Song and Zhao Nan, so he tempered Wei Shi’s treatment equipment to makes security lax as everyone focused on Wei Shi to stole few files that he deemed related; treatment process, missing key and one more I forgot. To be honest, Wu Jin memories didn’t have any loopholes, it is just Wu Jin seems lost part of his memories that he never mentioned. We knows someone sold Wu Jin to a people with record of sex offender. But at that time the policewomen asked “If Wu Jin lost”. That means, Wu Jin is small enough for her to assume he didn’t know way home but can walk. He should be 2-5 years old. Probably because this person perhaps his mother (remember the Pterosaur’s mother breaking the neck of weak baby) after that failure, sold him to R Code. Thus from age 2-5 to 7/8 years old, he is experimented on. Something happened that he able to escape from R Code, somehow went back to the past era, memory before that is locked/simply isolated the part about R Code due to trauma, in other word, amnesia and from 8 years old to 19 years old (11 years), he trained to be idol in the past. Before somehow transmigrated back. I don’t think White Moonlight had anything to do with it. But I do think Crosson Show had something going on. Not the hosts, probably the higher up or the sponsor of the program. The course of the show are filled with things that can help jolted Wu Jin’s memories as well as break the shackles of his physical limit after all.
  5. I didn’t really want to believe it when first foreshadowing came out, but all the clues are pretty much pointing towards our Little Witch being a genetically modified human.. and slightly more abused at that! Huhuhu not only that, his memories seem to have been tampered with, which means his whole life might have been a lie. Of course, this is just conjecture at this point and i really hope he’s just another illogically OP transmigrator, in which case, my heart won’t ache as much…. i really hope i’m wrong 😭

    • You’re right tho. It makes sense for little with to also be a modified human, there have been many small clues. For example, him seeing Wei shi when he took the lock for him in Wei shi’s memories, even tho their memories were mixed it wouldn’t have been possible for him to see wei shi in that “dream” unless the memories didn’t belong to Wei shi but little witch. The next hint can be found in the doctors explanation when he said little witch could absorb negative emotions without overflowing. Possible next hint is the mention of a key. It was mentioned that the shao guy was looking for the key. They key is related to the lock emotions. It has been proven that little witch can absorbed all the negative emotions without being great affected which in return helps “unlock” the emotions for the modified humans.

      Although little witchs life before has has many details related to him being an idol let’s not forget that besides him being an idol in the other world there hasn’t been anything else mentioned about his previous life.

      • Yeah. The disbandment of R Code is said 10 years ago. Wu Jin trained as future idol is said to be 11 years ago. So it is absolutely possible for him to be one of test subject in R Code before its disbandment. Now he is 19, at least he is experimented on since age unknown until 7/8 y.o. No wonder he is too well behave as said by Secretary Qu. It is that he is force feed abusive amount of calming drug MHCC. At that time, I found it adorable, but the test Secretary Qu done about “no ketchup for potato products in our company” and Wu Jin quickly put away the ketchup now just made me feel sour and heartache all over.
  6. Wei Shi finally finds motivation to stand out during an instance and a new motivation for breaking cameras 😂

    Thanks for the chapter!

  7. omg, he did all that, clearing out the entire place, just so his little witch could have enough sleep. and here are almost all the people believing that wei shi is the bad guy and just there to bully wu jin

  8. The period of abuse Wu Jin experienced should stop at 8 because he is 19 right now right? This means 11 years training to become adult, thus he is freed at 8. But since when did he is experimented on? Still unknown. Aiyoo, heartache.

  9. So King Louis gave the Grand Trianon Palace to his mistress, and King Wei Shi also gave the same palace for his lover. My King is soooo romantic 💖
