Chapter Six

All the actions are seamlessly executed, almost completed in an instant.

Fortunately, the government officials are alert, and within half a day, they finally arrive at this place steeped in sin. They take control of everyone.

After giving her statement to the police, Camille stands on the side of the road, waiting for the Grim Reaper to bring her a cup of hot coffee.

At this moment, a small dog from the side runs past her skirt, and a boy on a skateboard chases after the dog, saying, "Candy, don't run around! Don't bump into the lady up front!"

Camille watches the boy shouting in the distance, recognizing him as the boy she encountered at the train station. The boy, riding his skateboard, smoothly comes to a stop in front of her. Surprisingly, his skateboarding skills have improved quite a bit in just a few days. He takes off his hat, showing respect to the lady before him, "I'm glad to see you again. I apologize for bumping into you last time."

"Antoine!" At this moment, the boy's father rushes over, seeing his son in conversation with a young lady. As he approaches, he realizes that it's the young woman his son accidentally bumped into at the train station last time.

"Oh, it's you. Do you remember us? A few days ago, Antoine accidentally bumped into you at the train station and dirtied your skirt," the boy's father says.

Camille looks at them, smiles slightly, "It's okay, please don't worry about it."

At this moment, the little dog, seeing both of its owners here, runs back. Antoine quickly picks it up and hugs it, laughing, "Now you won't run around! Hahaha."

They notice the mansion in the distance surrounded by police cars. Antoine's father whispers, "I wonder what happened there with so many police cars. Do you know anything about it, madam?"

Camille shakes her head, and at this moment, the Grim Reaper is approaching with a cup of hot coffee for her.

Antoine's father answers the phone, and it's his mother urging them to come home. "We have to go home, Antoine."

Antoine nods, but his gaze remains curious, looking towards the mansion. The little dog barks a couple of times, and Antoine's father holds the squirming little dog in the air. "We have to go home, madam. It's nice to meet you again. Last time at the train station, we were there to pick up Antoine's grandparents for a skiing trip here. Didn't expect to meet you here just two days later. Quite a coincidence."

"I'm also glad to meet you again," Camille responds politely. Antoine and his father play with the little dog as they turn and leave.

And at that moment, just past midnight, Camille watches as they turn around, and the numbers above their heads turn into black 0.

"Sir!" Camille can't help but call out, and at that moment, the Grim Reaper has already walked up to her, handing her a cup of hot coffee.

Antoine, Antoine's dad, and the little dog all turn around with puzzled expressions, staring at her.

Camille hesitates for a few seconds but still asks, "Are you planning to go skiing tomorrow?"

Antoine excitedly responds, "Yes!" Antoine's dad smiles and looks at his son, "Yes, madam, tomorrow there's the grandest skiing competition."

At this moment, the dog in his arms barks twice, as if responding to its owner's words. Camille looks at the dog and says, "Your little dog seems uncomfortable; I think you should take it to the hospital."

"Really?" Antoine's dad lifts the dog and examines it. Seeing that the dog seems fine as usual, he still says to Camille, "Thank you, madam. We'll take Candy to the hospital for a checkup when we have time."

Grim Reaper and Camille watch as the two people and a dog gradually disappear into the distance. Death takes a sip of hot coffee and says, "You shouldn't have intervened so easily." Camille looks at the numbers on the heads of the two people, which continue to increase, and the color changes from black to green. She smiles and remains silent.

The dawn arrives quickly, Grim Reaper and Camille stand on the mountain, observing the still crowded police presence around the mansion. They haven't rested until now.

Grim Reaper checks the time, then gazes at the sunrise over the snowy mountains. He speaks slowly, "I have to go."

"Where are you going?" Camille actually doesn't care; it's just a spontaneous question. In fact, she is absentmindedly staring at the mansion, pondering how sinister human nature could become...

"To work!" the Grim Reaper exclaims excitedly. In the blink of an eye as he speaks, he vanishes, leaving no trace. No one would feel happy about Grim Reaper going to work, would they?

Down the mountain, Camille is waiting for the next train. Actually, occasionally taking a train feels good.

The train arrives, and just as she is getting on, a family getting off excitedly shouts, "Honey! I got tickets for all seven of us!"

The man quickly glances at his wife's phone. "Really! That's so lucky. Tickets for this ski resort are hard to get!"

"Really, really! I just saw a family selling their ski resort tickets on Instagram. Look, look!"

"Is it true? What if it's a scam?"

"Really! They posted on Instagram because their dog is pregnant. To protect and celebrate the pregnancy, the whole family decided not to go to the skiing resort now. They plan to go next year with all the puppies!"

"You're amazing, honey! We're so lucky! We need to celebrate!" The family cheers and embraces each other joyfully.

Camille turns around in surprise, and at the moment when the train door closes, she sees the numbers above the family's heads quickly drop from green to black 0.

At the moment the train doors close, the train emits a buzzing sound and sets off towards its destination. The silhouette of the excited family hugging each other beside the train lingers in Camille's mind.

In God's game, no one is a winner.
