## Story

Hei Yanjing along with Su Wan went to see Huo Daofu. Su Wan met with Yang Hao and he was receptive of him. Su Wan wanted to create something new to replace the Nine Clans Association with Yang Hao. Yang Hao corrected him and said that the three of them, including Li Cu should do it together instead.

Li Cu continued to train with the Wang Clan. Wang Xiaoyuan went to see Wang Xiansheng. He thought Li Cu was suspicious and told her she needed to deal with it while handing her a knife. Wang Xiaoyuan later talked to him to try to get him to trust the Wang Clan more. They talked more about the computing department and how it worked. He wanted to go in there but only those with a ratio of 0 could get in. He asked Wang Xiaoyuan how to get a score of 0 but she evaded the question. Later, Li Cu hand a notebook where he collected leaves in an attempt to locate where he was. He had narrowed it down to a couple of locations in Russia. He went back to reading snake pheromones and gained more information about how to locate the headquarters from Wu Xie without the Wang's knowledge. The pheromones were overloading Li Cu's body.

Su Nan was still recovering from the snow blindness and asked Wu Xie to tell her a story. He told of two little children one of whom was a boy and the other a girl. They were playing hide and seek and went in a storage room. Su Nan finished the story for him. The two children thought they saw a ghost. When they came out, the little boy realized the little girl was actually a boy but they had almost kissed. Wu Xie was the little boy and Xie Yuchen was the little girl who was actually a boy. Wu Xie was shocked she knew that story and realized that she was paying attention to him since she was little. Wu Xie next talked about how he could have lived a normal life if not for his strong sense of curiousity. He also began to realize that he needed to train harder to survive because those around him were all skilled. He has obsessive, but felt that he was a coward. He made many mistakes and a lot of people were harmed because of it. He wanted to save Uncle Three, but harmed Ning and Da Kui. He wanted to save Zhang Qiling, but harmed Yun Cai and Pan Zi. But he just wanted those around him to be safe. But he has no control and some things he has to face alone. He eventually got used to it after a while.

Li Cu and Wang Xiaoyuan continued to fight and Li Cu even flirted with her. Mr. Wang later told Li Cu that Wang Xiaoyuan was Wu Xie's spy, and Wu Xie specially inserted him beside her and had her bring him in. Mr. Wang put forward a tempting condition, if Li Cu killed her then his ratio would immediately drop to zero. He took Mr. Wang's knife and attacked her. But although she was knocked to the ground by him, Li Cu did not kill her, but wanted to kiss her. He said he thought of her Shen Qiong. At this moment, the Wang Cen appeared, telling Li Cu that his ratio went down to zero. They went to the computing department. The Wangs knew, that based on the probablity of everything that could happened, Wu Xie sent him there on purpose. There were 20 coincidences that led up to him being there like Huang Yan choosing someone who could read snake pheromones. But he wouldn't have been able to join the Wang Clan if Wu Xie had not died. They thought Wu Xie's death lowered the chance that it was a conspiracy. The Wangs want to influence the world and they use a large amount of data to learn how things turn out.
