After realizing the issue, Eve Nightburn immediately found her old ID card from when she was a man in her room.
Once found, she directly opened her phone, activated the camera function, turned on the timestamp, and took a photo of her ID card.
[Member] Yi: “Just the same name, how many people in the world share the same name? Like all those little Johns in Europe, right?”
[Member] Dead Fox: “Alright, I tested it, it’s not photoshopped. This Eve Nightburn is indeed not that Eve Nightburn. Disappointed, folks.”
Seeing someone following her lead, Eve Nightburn immediately pressed her advantage!
[Member] Yi: “See! There aren’t that many coincidences in the world. Don’t go around thinking everyone is your wife! By the way, @Prime Minister, you forced me to reveal my privacy. If you don’t compensate me with ten bucks for emotional distress, I won’t let this go today!”
Knowing she had indeed wronged someone, the Prime Minister had no choice but to apologize and compensate.
[Member] Prime Minister: Exclusive Red Packet (Yi).
Eve Nightburn then opened her phone and took the ten bucks for emotional distress.
“Hmph! You know what’s good for you!”
Eve Nightburn was overjoyed inside looking at the ten bucks she got.
Who knew you could make money while chatting in a group!
Indeed, the way to prevent others from setting the pace is to set the pace yourself!
You do yours, I do mine, if I take your pace, that’s my skill!
But Eve Nightburn had to restrain her joy, or else her emotions would take over her intelligence soon!
As an excellent and calm loli, Eve Nightburn absolutely couldn’t let that happen!
[Member] Supreme Slacker: “I remember Yi mentioned something like ‘What should a man do if he suddenly turns into a girl?’ a while ago.”
[Member] Supreme Slacker: “Besides, Yi didn’t take a photo of herself. Is it possible she doesn’t look like this now?”
[Member] Meow Meow: “???”
With the slacker’s question, the previously suppressed issue stirred up the group again, and the army of repeaters started to exert force, with endless question marks flooding the screen.
“You’re of no use when I need you, and you only cause trouble when I don’t!”
Eve Nightburn cursed the slacker, then immediately clicked the leave group button and made a quick exit!
“So annoying…”
Eve Nightburn angrily closed the chat software, then opened a music player and found a piece of pure music, “The Seventh Chapter of Rain.”
Then she found a single-player RPG game to play.
Eve Nightburn manipulated the little witch in the game, grinding stats and progressing through the story until the moon hung high in the sky, and she stopped playing the game out of hunger.
Eve Nightburn was about to open a food delivery app on her phone to order takeout when she suddenly saw a message notification from That Goose: Cirno requested to add you as a friend.
“An admin?” Eve Nightburn scratched her head. Although she had calmed down, she still felt a bit upset about the incident that afternoon.
Eve Nightburn hesitated whether to add the other person.
She decided to leave the request hanging and went to order her dinner first.
Eve Nightburn then switched to the food delivery app, looked around for a while, and ordered a cheeseburger with fries and a soda.
After ordering dinner, Eve Nightburn opened That Goose again. Before she could open the friend request, she suddenly noticed a small red dot indicating a new message.
“Is it my sister?” All of Eve Nightburn’s group chats were on mute, so basically, except for friends, no one could send her messages.
Eve Nightburn found the message with the red dot and discovered it was a temporary conversation with Cirno.
After opening it, Eve Nightburn read through the messages one by one.
“Sorry for the trouble, I’ve dealt with those people, Yi.”
“Although I don’t know how to say it, I actually understand you quite well.”
“If I’m not mistaken, that girl is you, right?”
“If it’s true, I can keep it a secret for you. You should know Lucian Blue, right? I’m sort of his colleague.”
“Of course, if you don’t believe me, just treat it as a joke.”
“If you’re still not satisfied, I can make a public apology.”
“Although I didn’t originally connect you with that girl, after seeing your ID card, I really can’t rule out that possibility.”
Am I exposed already?
Eve Nightburn broke into a cold sweat. Has Lucian Blue, who has been with me for so long, connected me with the man I used to be? How on earth did she figure it out?
Full of doubts, Eve Nightburn immediately accepted the friend request and sent a message right after.
Yi: “Who are you really!”
After about a minute or two, Cirno replied to Eve Nightburn’s message.
Cirno: “My name is Tanya Gu, from Dreamhua City, currently living in The Capital.”
“Huh? Just saying it like that?”
Eve Nightburn was somewhat impressed. Aren’t you guys afraid of exposing your information?
Eve Nightburn now understood why this person had no qualms about exposing her in the group—they simply didn’t see it as a problem!
Eve Nightburn was about to ask about her relationship with Lucian Blue, but after typing a few words, she realized that asking would be admitting she knew Lucian Blue.
Thinking of this, Eve Nightburn quickly pressed delete and retyped.
Yi: “Why do you think I have anything to do with that monster you mentioned?”
Cirno: “How many people have your surname? Cloudhaven City is an area with an extremely, extremely small number of registered people with the surname Night.”
Cirno: “When I looked at Leon Rivers’ information before, there was a line: identifies as male.”
Leon Rivers…
Eve Nightburn remembered, he was the man who swiftly processed her new ID card, the legend who could get things done in three hours.
So, within those three hours, her information had already been uploaded from Cloudhaven City to The Capital?
What kind of connections are these?
As Eve Nightburn was pondering, Tanya Gu continued sending messages.
Cirno: “Although there might be many coincidences in this world, the premise of a coincidence is having enough data samples.”
Cirno: “But obviously, Cloudhaven City plus the surname Night, the sample size is almost non-existent.”
Hearing this, Eve Nightburn realized it was all her fault for not changing her name to Zhang San.
Cirno: “After you posted your ID card, I had some free time and checked the national database.”
Cirno: “I found that since the Spring Festival, after you quit your job, there has been no significant news about you, except for payments, there’s basically no record of any activities.”
“And after we sealed Calamity Eve Nightburn in the subspace, your consumption records completely disappeared.”
Eve Nightburn fully understood. After all, coincidences to this extent really shouldn’t be explainable by mere coincidence.
