I originally planned to wait until after my gastroscopy in two days to post this month's preview, but I woke up feeling pretty good today, so I decided to write it now.

To make a long story short, according to last month's plan (calculation/fate), we should be entering the S3 competition immediately after "The Darkest Night" ends.

However, the writing progress of "The Darkest Night" was faster than I expected, and with the wedding event in the plot, I thought it would be good to add a short personal script here to transition the time in the book.

In any case, the story of "Bloody Battle of Santiago" won't be too long, it'll be finished within ten chapters. It's inherently a purely comedic side story, so there's no need to take up too much space.

After that, I should explain the wedding of Xiao Tan and Xiao Ling... I won't write about this in detail, just explain it.

Immediately after that, I will start writing the S3 preliminaries.

The foreshadowing outside of the main storyline has basically been resolved, and "Bloody Battle of Santiago" is also the last chapter unrelated to the main storyline.

After the official start of the S3 competition, there will be no more "scripts" in the general sense. Everything from then until the end will be main storyline progression and competition content.

Okay, that's all for the preview.

These past few days, adjusting my schedule and taking medicine has suppressed the stomach pain a bit, and I've also managed to complete the extra work I accumulated last month.

If the gastroscopy in two days doesn't reveal anything particularly serious, I'll still have to speed up the writing progress of Thriller Paradise.

Finally, I hope all working people pay more attention to their health, and that students can have a happy summer vacation.
