"Xiaoqian, what are you doing? If you're thirsty, you should drink pure water!"
Inside room 1603 of Weiyang Apartments,
Lin Muyao searched around the room but didn't find any trace of Su Mo. When she came to the bathroom, she saw her best friend engaging in unseemly behavior by the bathtub.
Although Lin Muyao had always felt that her best friend An Xiaoqian, being an art student, had somewhat peculiar thought processes.
This scene of drinking water still brought her quite a shock.
Had her best friend's brain broken from the stress of looking for Su Mo?
Just as Lin Muyao walked worriedly to the bathtub, she discovered that An Xiaoqian had already cupped some crystal-clear, high-quality broth in her pale white hands, offering it to her. Her round, cute big eyes sparkled with excitement as she spoke.
"Muyao, don't look at me with that expression. Try it—this water is very sweet."
Faced with her adorable loli best friend who didn't seem very bright to begin with making such a declaration.
Lin Muyao originally wanted to refuse, but as her delicate nose twitched and she caught a whiff of the familiar sweet fragrance from Su Mo's body.
As if possessed by a ghost, she ultimately didn't refuse An Xiaoqian, and her crimson lips parted slightly.
Immediately, the pupils in Lin Muyao's almond-shaped eyes contracted suddenly, just like a cat that had tasted something delicious.
Seeing her best friend show this expression of pleasant surprise, An Xiaoqian couldn't help but exclaim with certainty and delight.
"Hehehe, I knew it wasn't just my imagination. Su Mo really has become more delicious. I can hardly wait to start the education now!"
Because she was happy, An Xiaoqian's voice was quite loud.
Soon it attracted Yun Xia and Chu Tianlan, who were carefully searching for Su Mo in the room.
After seeing the somewhat cool bathwater in the tub, Chu Tianlan, as the landlord of room 1603 who was very familiar with her smart little nest made a simple judgment and knew that Su Mo had finished bathing about an hour ago.
Following this 'bathing' clue, the careful Chu Tianlan ignored the temptation of the 'broth' and searched the room thoroughly.
She then discovered that there were actually a few drops of water stains that hadn't dried yet in the room and at the elevator entrance.
It was obviously the appearance of a girl who had rushed out without drying off properly after bathing.
With this discovery, the four beautiful girls quickly took the elevator down to the security booth.
They wanted to ask the security guard if he had encountered anyone like Su Mo, or to check the surveillance footage.
Just as the four beautiful girls were heading downstairs in the elevator under Su Mo's deliberate guidance,

At the same time, the lock of room 1103 in the same building was quietly opened by Su Mo.
The reason Su Mo hadn't entered this room until now?
It was because the current Su Mo was very alert.
After leaving room 1603, Su Mo had been peeking out from the stairwell on the 11th floor, observing the elevator's movements.
Seeing that the elevator had stayed on the 16th floor for a long time and was now finally passing the 11th floor heading downstairs.
Su Mo finally felt relieved. It seemed the four beautiful girls weren't planning to return to room 1103, but were going elsewhere to look for her!
The key entered the keyhole, gently pushing open the door to room 1103 that she hadn't visited in ten days.
Meow~
As soon as Su Mo tiptoed into the room, she felt the touch of fluffy cat fur at her feet.
Su Mo, with a guilty conscience like a thief, was startled and jumped. Only after seeing it was Xiaobai did she breathe a long sigh of relief.
Having been 'homeless and fearful' for the past few days, the feeling of being affectionately nuzzled by the fluffy cat was quite comforting for Su Mo.
After carefully closing the door, Su Mo gently lifted Xiaobai into her arms.
"Xiaobai, it's been so long! Hehe... hehehe... stop licking me!"
Perhaps because they hadn't seen each other for a while, Xiaobai really missed Su Mo.
Or perhaps it was the delicious effect brought by the 'Charm Mark'—as soon as Su Mo held Xiaobai in her arms, she felt the little one's enthusiasm.
The fluffy little creature kept nuzzling around in her embrace and friendly licked her cheek.
Several times Su Mo tried to put Xiaobai down, but the little one was unwilling.
Finally, helpless Su Mo could only use her ultimate technique, taking out a cat treat from the living room cabinet, which finally coaxed the clingy Xiaobai down and placed it in its little nest.
Looking at the little one that had finally quieted down.
To avoid being exposed by Lin Muyao and An Xiaoqian returning home during the final stage of Heartbeat Hide and Seek.
Su Mo couldn't help but survey this room where her wife Muyao and the evil loli senior lived together.
Although she had been here many times before and was very familiar with both Lin Muyao's and An Xiaoqian's rooms.
Since she had always been a guest before, Su Mo hadn't thought about hide and seek.
But now, during the hide and seek period, with a different stance, looking at this same room and searching for hiding spots, Su Mo found it quite novel.
After a simple survey, the first hiding spot Su Mo discovered was the kotatsu in the living room.
However, remembering the last time she was bullied by An Xiaoqian's white-stockinged little feet under the kotatsu and the scene of being caught as a precedent.
Su Mo only thought for a simple second before shaking her head.
She passed on this option.
Because Weiyang Apartments belonged to an apartment building, this room was only about 50 square meters. Apart from the kotatsu, the living room also had some flowers raised by her wife Muyao and Xiaobai's little nest, leaving no space for hiding.
The kitchen and toilet spaces weren't large either, and were fully utilized with many girl's items, leaving no spare space whatsoever.
After a simple tour, Su Mo could only set her target on the bedrooms of An Xiaoqian and Lin Muyao.
After all, the bedrooms had more space, and girls' rooms had many cabinets, making it easier to hide.
Having confirmed the hiding location, Su Mo considered whether to hide in Lin Muyao's room or An Xiaoqian's room.
This question didn't trouble Su Mo for long.
After pushing open the doors of the two beautiful girls' rooms and taking just one glance, Su Mo decided to sneak into An Xiaoqian's room to hide.
The reason was simple.
Lin Muyao's room, just like her perfect girlfriend status.
The entire room was spotless.
The blanket was folded neatly, and even the dressing table chair and slippers were arranged with perfect orderliness.
If she hid in Lin Muyao's room, Su Mo felt that with her wife Muyao's careful personality, she might directly notice something wrong and arrest her.
Looking at An Xiaoqian, this evil loli, in contrast.
Clothes were casually folded and placed on a small stool next to the bed, various garments piled into a small mountain.
There was an easel placed in the middle of the floor with many sketches piled beside it. The blanket on the bed wasn't folded yet, and from the blanket, you could see the appearance of An Xiaoqian having rolled around several times when she was reluctant to get up this morning.
Besides the blanket, there was also a huge evil bra and a pair of blue and white striped panties carelessly placed on the bed.
Looking at this room that was like the anime character 'Shiina Mashiro' who couldn't take care of herself in daily life.
Su Mo just took a simple look and felt it was perfect!
After all, the room was so messy that Su Mo felt even if she moved some items around, it probably wouldn't arouse suspicion!
Just as Su Mo began wandering around An Xiaoqian's room, thinking about whether she should hide under the bed, in the closet, or behind the curtains.

As the wall clock hands reached 4:00 PM,
[Ding, detected that the time has reached 16:00 on November 30th. The final summary post for Heartbeat Hide and Seek ② has been published. Only eight hours remain until the game ends. Current host exposure rate is 0/2. Please continue to maintain this status.]
Hearing the system prompt from her sister in her mind that the mission had reached its final stage.
Looking at the 8-hour countdown in her mind.
Just as Su Mo, who had entered the final stage of the game, was feeling somewhat nervous.
A series of noisy sounds faintly arose from outside the residential complex.
Carefully walking to the window of An Xiaoqian's room, Su Mo peeked out half her little head through the curtain gap to look down, and then her whole person couldn't help but freeze.
Perhaps it was because the final summary post had just been published.
At this moment, a large wave of people was surging densely toward Weiyang Apartments.
That momentum of surging crowds was as terrifying as a zombie siege.
Seeing this scene, Su Mo's whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Eh, so many people came to chase after me?
However, after a small shock, Su Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Now she was hiding in her wife Muyao's home—surely no one would think of that!
Just as Su Mo was curiously looking toward the entrance of Weiyang Apartments, several familiar beautiful figures suddenly appeared in Su Mo's field of vision.
Those people were none other than Lin Muyao, Yun Xia, An Xiaoqian, and Chu Tianlan who had just walked out of the security booth.
Unlike most people who wanted to enter Weiyang Apartments, the four beautiful girls actually walked out of the apartment complex's main gate with an imposing manner.
Looking at the backs of the four leaving Weiyang Apartments.
Su Mo's big peach blossom eyes couldn't help but burst with ultimate joy.
Because according to the usual pattern of the beautiful girls searching for her, they would return home around midnight.
Although Su Mo couldn't figure out whether it was because the 'star hair clip' blocked the cameras or for some other reason that made the four beautiful girls choose to leave Weiyang Apartments to search for her.
But looking at the security guard who was now blocking outsiders from entering the complex and the backs of the beautiful girls walking farther away.
At this moment, Su Mo couldn't help but clench her small white fists, a voice bursting from the bottom of her heart!
This Heartbeat Hide and Seek ② mission now seemed secure again!!!
Wait... ?
Again?
Why did I say again?
Never mind, doesn't matter!
Xiaobai, who had just finished eating a cat treat, seemed to be infected by Su Mo's happy mood and came directly to Su Mo's feet, nuzzling Su Mo's crystal-white little feet with its small head.
Meow~
Just as one person and one cat were happily cuddling in the room.
Just now at the security booth, through sweet girl Yun Xia's acting cute method and the 'Mo Mo's Supermarket vouchers' given by Chu Tianlan, the security guard finally agreed to show them the surveillance footage.
Looking at the completely white surveillance footage of Building 5 of Weiyang Apartments, combined with Su Mo's disguise technique.
After some discussion, combined with the large map that Su Mo had posted in the summary.
Lin Muyao and her group of four finally decided to search for Su Mo in the surrounding area.
But after leaving the complex, Lin Muyao suddenly remembered something.
Eh... did I feed Xiaobai before leaving home today?
