Chapter 53
As soon as Wen Bei finished speaking, the silence in the room intensified again.
The rabbit housekeeper was in a trance for a moment, and finally remembered the scene when he first met Wen Bei.
The source of obsession is not an unfulfilled dream, not an unrequited lover... but the money that has been saved but not spent.
The price of this ability seems outrageous, but when it comes to Wen Bei, it strangely seems to be no problem.
The rabbit steward racked his brains and thought: "Actually, I've seen someone sacrifice talent before. Later, that person found that his talent was overdrawn and he could no longer play the piano. He couldn't accept it and committed suicide."
Wen Bei's expression gradually became serious after hearing this: "I understand him very well. If I go bankrupt because of this ability..."
Before he could finish his words, his mouth was covered.
Veins were visible on his broad palms, and it was obvious that Qiu Ting was a little unhappy at the moment.
He even wanted to use his big fingers to stir the soft tongue inside, but the young man's teeth were clenched and he didn't give him the chance, so his fingers could only rub his lips as a second best option.
The tender lips were rubbed until they were crimson. Wen Bei raised her eyes and looked at him with moist cat eyes, signaling him to let her go.
He used what he thought was a very fierce look, but he didn't know that the cat's eyes were a little round and had no killing power at all.
Unwilling to tell myself, I turned around and confessed to the fat rabbit.
Qiu Ting's lips curled slightly, and although he was smiling, his eyes were dark: "Don't act like a spoiled child."
Wenbei:???
A few big words appeared in his eyes - Are you sick?
Qiu Tin withdrew his hand and glanced at the rabbit butler at his feet with a half-smile.
This time, the rabbit butler truly felt the murderous aura coming towards him.
It was smart for once: "I'm leaving now, you guys continue chatting."
This time, the door had no supernatural power to block it. The black fog swirled around the door, watching it closely until it left.
The rabbit housekeeper even considerately closed the door, as if he was afraid that Qiu Ting would chase him out.
As soon as the door was closed, it stomped its feet and ran wildly in the corridor, fearing that it would be caught again.
Wen Bei looked at the door that was slammed shut, feeling somewhat helpless: "Why did you scare it?"
You still need to keep an eye on the mascot of your own store.
Qiu Ting's red eyes flickered for a moment, but he didn't answer directly: "It should taste good."
Wen Bei: "...I don't eat rabbit meat."
Qiu Tinge felt a little sorry and said softly, "Is that so."
The two people who were just at loggerheads now became harmonious again.
Since when, they have come to understand each other better and better. While testing each other, they have also stepped on the bottom line and no one has crossed it.
Wen Bei: "I'm going to sleep."
He rudely ordered them to leave.
Qiu Tincture: “Yeah.”
So obedient?
Wen Bei looked at him suspiciously, and then breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he really just walked away.
Qiu Ting's room is right next to Wen Bei.
This was his own choice.
Just turn left as soon as you go out and you can go back to your room.
The sound of the door closing next door echoed in the night.
Just when Wen Bei relaxed and thought he could finally have a good sleep, his face suddenly turned dark, and he stretched out his hand and grabbed something sneaky in the blink of an eye - it was Qiu Tin's ability [Pollution].
A small piece of [pollution] had hidden in his quilt since who knows when.
Not long after Qiu Ting left, he crawled darkly onto him, reminding him of the unpleasant memory of being circled around his waist, and the image of being entangled and suffocated by some ferocious beast in his dream also flashed through his mind.
Wen Bei grabbed this small piece of [Pollution], sneered, and threw it out with force, saying bluntly: "You get out too."
The little black ball looked so pitiful, huddled on the ground and moving outwards little by little, looking back every three steps.
It was so ferocious not long ago, but now it looks like a puppy that was kicked out.
Wen Bei showed no mercy: "Remember to turn off the lights for me."
He knew that this black thing could understand.
Or perhaps Qiu Tinge could hear it.
[Pollution] obediently turned off the light, whooshed away, returned to his master, and instantly merged into his body like a shadow.
Qiu Ting, who was leaning against the wall, whistled lazily, with regret flashing in his eyes.
Tsk, why were you sent back?
...
late at night.
The temperature dropped a little at night, but Luo was not as cold as before.
He was covered with a thick quilt, had a wall to shelter him from the wind and a fire to keep him warm, so he didn't feel uncomfortable even though he was sleeping on a large bunk bed.
He slept in a factory near the hotel.
Although it is called a factory, it is actually just a prototype and the equipment inside has not yet been installed.
However, with the earth-type polluter, the wall can be built very quickly and it is very strong. Ordinary filth cannot get in. There is no cutting corners, so the thermal insulation effect is also good.
Because Wenbei recently bought some energy-free street lamps and placed them in the hotel's garden, the hotel also emits fluorescent light in the dark at night. It is not a dazzling light, and it is dreamy, beautiful and warm.
A Luo could see the faint light of the hotel through the factory window, like a firefly pointing the way in the abyss, or like the redemption that only appears in fairy tales.
He kept looking out the window, his breathing a little disordered.
Xuan Yi was sleeping next to him. He turned over and looked at him: "Can't sleep?"
A Luo shook his head and nodded again: "Will I have a chance to go to the hotel again?"
An embarrassed smile appeared on his somewhat dark face.
Xuan Yi: "Well, you help build the factory and staff dormitories, and your salary will be paid daily. You will soon have enough money to spend in hotels and restaurants."
At first he didn't understand why the hotel priced the food so low, but now looking at A Luo's shy smile, he suddenly seemed to understand.
He is saving suffering.
Xuan Yi took a deep breath and said, "Go to sleep."
A Luo was worried and didn't plan to stay here for too long. Although this place looked like a paradise, he still remembered that the two most important people in his life were still waiting for him to return in the safe zone.
But it was useless to think too much. He had to get through tonight before planning for tomorrow. He nodded and was about to close his eyes when there was a sudden sound at the door.
The night watchman was very alert and noticed it immediately.
Despite the existence of the hotel, very few filth creatures would approach here, but after all, the hotel was the only one that was not attacked by filth creatures, so they were always on guard near the hotel.
So the moment the sound appeared, the night watchman woke up his companions.
"Be careful!" someone whispered.
The voice at the door seemed to have heard their alert voices. There was a pause, and then there were a few knocks on the door, neither light nor heavy.
Xuan Yi stood up and shouted, "What is that?"
He looked confused and uncertain.
The fact that he knocked on the door meant that he was not a filthy person. Could it be that he was a polluter who wanted to come to the hotel?
But it was late at night, and it was not yet the hotel's reception hours.
The polluters at the base wouldn't be stupid enough to come here at such a dangerous time.
The person at the door didn't answer and continued to knock stubbornly.
Xuan Yi winked at the person closest to the door, who nodded in understanding, and used his tail to wrap the key to open the lock. At the same time, he had already gripped the gun tightly in his hand, ready to press the ring if anything went wrong.
Unexpectedly, after the door opened, a human figure came in accompanied by the wind and snow.
A Luo's eyes widened, "The one in charge!"
It turned out to be the person in charge who got lost with him.
He is still alive!
Tears welled up in A Luo's eyes. He strode over and asked, "What on earth happened?"
The person in charge seemed a little frozen and reacted very slowly: "It's A Luo, great to see you're still alive."
He lowered his head, his eyes were a little gray and he looked stiff.
A Luo smiled: "I should be the one saying this to you."
He didn't expect that the person who was dragged away in the car with filth as food would have the chance to meet again.
As long as the person in charge is still alive, they will have the opportunity to retrieve the emergency supplies from the base.
Thinking of this, A Luo's expression became excited again.
The other polluters in the factory were relieved upon seeing this, and the person who opened the door at the beginning tucked his tail in and locked the door again.
This means agreeing to let him come in and rest. After all, it is freezing and snowy outside, and he will definitely freeze to death if left alone.
A Luo quickly took the person in charge to find Xuan Yi: "This is the person in charge of the safe zone where I was originally located."
He briefly recounted how the person in charge led them to look for supplies and how they dispersed.
Xuan Yi smiled carelessly: "Hello."
But he had already looked around without leaving any trace.
He stretched out his hand to shake hands with the person in charge, and the person in charge stretched out his hand in return, which had a smooth cut on it.
The entire palm is gone.
A Luo was startled: "What happened?"
The person in charge had no expression on his face. “I survived by being dragged away by the filth, but the price I paid was the eternal loss of something.”
He raised his hands and bit off the glove on his other hand with his teeth, but it was also empty.
A Luo was a little sad.
Person in charge: "My detection ring was on my wrist and was swallowed along with it."
Xuan Yi comforted him: "It's okay, there is still a chance to make up for it."
Losing both hands was a huge blow to a person. He suddenly understood why the person in charge had such a stiff expression.
Maybe I was too sad.
If it were him, he might not even want to talk.
A Luo comforted the person in charge and told him about his adventures in the hotel. In the end, he concluded that they would be able to successfully find the supplies and return to the safe zone.
The person in charge repeated the hotel, with a strange light in his eyes.
The fire dimmed a little at this moment.
Flames shot out of Xuan Yi's hands and he threw them directly into the fire, making it bigger. The temperature in the factory rose slightly.
"Go to sleep first, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
A Luo nodded and looked at the quiet person in charge: "You can cover the same blanket with me."
The person in charge nodded.
The sound of communication in the factory disappeared again.
The night watchman continued his vigil, and the sounds of grinding teeth and snoring began to rise again.
A Luo closed his eyes and continued to sleep. He was so happy that there was someone familiar around him. This time, the hesitation in his heart was finally mostly dissipated, so he quickly let down his guard and fell into a deep sleep.
The sleeping A Luo didn't notice that the person in charge beside him suddenly turned his head to look at him. The person in charge was sleeping with his back to him, but at this moment he was looking straight at him, his neck was twisted and full of wrinkles, and he was facing the back with a weird smile on his face.
Green fungi began to grow from the neatly cut wound, as if they were about to take root in the flesh...
