"Wow!"
After seeing the girl's face on the phone, Xiao Yi was brimming with curiosity, he immediately picked up the phone and examined it carefully.
"Oh! It is indeed a real person!" Xiao Yi exclaimed.
"Ah..." The girl's face blushed slightly as Xiao Yi stared at her from such a close distance.
She averted her gaze, slightly embarrassed, and said,
"Could you please be a little more polite? After all, we have just met, and this distance is inappropriate, not to mention I am a girl still to be married..."
Seeing the girl's shy demeanor, everyone who had felt the situation was abnormal began to feel their hearts stir.
"Holy shit! She has only a face, but she's really cute! I can do this!"
"This can't be happening! Man up front, you would go for just a paper-thin face? And how would you even 'go for it'?"
"What's the problem? Isn't this just like the 2D realm? With love, nothing is impossible!"
"...The level of eccentric taste in this live stream is kind of defying the heavens."
Only then did Xiao Yi, hearing the girl's words, put the phone back on the table.
"Oh, my apologies."
"It's nothing," she said with a smile. "Let's start with introductions. My name is Aviya."
"Aviya? Hello, my name is Xi—..." Xiao Yi suddenly paused, then continued, "I guess my name is Xiao Yi."
Commenters: "How can he pause even when saying his own name? And even say 'probably'? Brother Xiao Yi couldn't have forgotten his own name, could he?"
"Xiao Yi... That's a somewhat unusual name," Aviya laughed softly.
But to Xiao Yi, Aviya seemed even more unusual, and he couldn't help but ask,
"Speaking of which, how did you manage to squeeze your face into the phone? There's no hole on the table, that's quite impressive."
Commenters: "That's way beyond 'quite impressive.'"
"Um..." Aviya looked troubled. "I'm not sure myself how I did it. After all, it wasn't me who did it directly, but someone else."
"Someone else? Who?"
"My mother, oh. I did something wrong, so she punished me by confining me here. It's so lonely and boring."
"Mother? You mean Aunt Maria?"
Xiao Yi frowned slightly; to treat someone like this for a small mistake seemed too harsh on Maria's part. He was beginning to understand more and more why Nathan wanted to leave this place.
"Aunt Maria? Who's that?" Aviya asked.
"Huh? Er... I mean, she's the Professor's wife," Xiao Yi responded. "You are the Professor's daughter, right? So your mother would only be Aunt Maria."
"Why does it keep getting more complicated? But fortunately, I know who you're talking about now... Is that so? I see," Aviya suddenly laughed.
Then, Aviya asked,
"That's right, I am indeed this family's daughter, but who are you? Are you a new family member?"
"Family member?" Xiao Yi remembered the Professor's invitation to become part of the family.
But now that the Professor was dead, that matter must be concluded as well.
Therefore, Xiao Yi could only answer, "Not a new family member, I am just a passerby taking an exam, that's all."
"A passerby? But trespassing into a house is a crime, you know."

"I am a guest, after all. The Professor personally welcomed me... It's just a pity that he's now dead, ah... Professor."
"Dead? How is that possible?" Upon hearing this news, Aviya was also startled, "What on earth happened outside!?"
So, Xiao Yi began to tell Aviya about the series of events he had witnessed that night in the Western-style mansion.
While Xiao Yi was talking, the discussion in the live stream room didn't stop.
"I didn't expect the person 'on the phone' to actually be the daughter of this family, and now all four members of the family are here."
"Isn't it a family of five? That little girl should be counted as well, right?"
"Hard to say, there's too little information about her right now."
"Speaking of which, this family really seems a bit too fantastical. Not dying is one thing, but they also have special abilities, and now another face has appeared. What kind of world is this abnormality instance, anyway?"
"But regardless, since both the son and daughter of this family are going to help Brother Xiao Yi, and with the Professor also dead, it's essentially three against one, so it's a sure win."
Xiao Yi had also just about finished explaining everything to Aviya.
"And then, that brat told me there was a phone here, so I came, and found you."
"Really concise, at least I can understand." Aviya pondered for a moment and then said, "Did Nathan mentioned that I would help? He's really full of himself. But forget it, who calls me his sister after all."
Aviya then looked back at Xiao Yi and said solemnly:
"Since Nathan wants to escape from here and has sought your help, then I'll tell you about the Western-style mansion, about our family's past."
"Story?" Xiao Yi waved his hand, "Why are you the same as your brother? I'm not here to listen to stories; just tell me what I need to do."
But Aviya said, "No, you must listen. Only by understanding what truly happened here can you effectively help us."
"Is that so? Fine then."
Although somewhat helpless, Xiao Yi had promised to help, so he simply moved a chair over, sat down, and readied himself to listen to a long story.
The audience in the live stream room began to listen intently and focused.
The truth behind this highest difficulty abnormality instance seemed to be finally unveiling.
"Ahem!"
Aviya cleared her throat and then, in a slightly deep voice, began to narrate their family's past slowly.
"In fact, our family was originally just a very ordinary, normal family. But, over a decade ago, something happened that none of us expected.
My father, the Professor you speak of, his wife, my mother, Maria, died in an accidental car crash."
"Dead?" Xiao Yi's eyes widened slightly.
"Yes, dead, truly dead. It was a terribly sad event, and my father couldn't accept the reality. He lived in a haze, completely shattered.
I thought my father would eventually pull himself together, but unexpectedly, he began to immerse himself in strange magic, trying to resurrect my mother. At first, I thought he couldn't accept reality, and that's why he was fixated on such a fantasy. But then, one day, everything changed—the magic worked, and my mother was brought back to life."
"Resurrected?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly.
"Yes." Aviya said, "You see that array behind you? That's what my father used for the ritual at the time. Although my mother was resurrected, that ritual also attracted a terrible monster."
The audience in the live stream room listened carefully to Aviya's account.
Many of them realized that the Professor had summoned something terrible in his attempt to bring his wife back to life, leading to their family's oddities and their possession of special powers.
However, some people felt a bit disappointed.
So it was just that, after all.
