After careful consideration, Gu Shi found that Anthony's proposal was not unfeasible. No matter how long he guessed, it would be better for him to go and see it in person.
Moreover, the two of them had the legitimate reason of "worrying about Asher's safety", which was much safer than the other methods Gu Shi had thought of.
"Just do as you say, Anthony."
Hearing that Gu Shi agreed with his idea, Anthony jumped down from the chair he was sitting on and said energetically, "Then let's go quickly."
As a young man full of energy, although Anthony is not the type who particularly likes to be in a lively atmosphere, he feels a little depressed because he is forced to stay at home all day long.
What Gu Shi proposed now is just the right thing to do to allow him to exercise a little at home. Anthony's mobility can be said to be off the charts at this moment.
"Wait." Gu Shi called out to Anthony.
Anthony turned around and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong, Brother Gu Shi, do you have anything else to say?"
"Look, if Mr. Asher asks about it later, could you please tell Anthony that you discovered this yourself?"
Gu Shi didn't want to expose himself directly, so he had to trouble Anthony. Fortunately, Asher didn't deliberately conceal the noise of going downstairs every day, so it wasn't unreasonable for Anthony to take the blame.
Anthony is a child, and Asher is definitely not that wary of him. In addition, given their previous interactions, it is normal for Anthony to worry about Asher's condition.
Although he didn't quite understand Gu Shi's actions, Anthony thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with putting the matter on himself, so he nodded and agreed to Gu Shi.
"Okay, I understand."
Anthony didn't ask Gu Shi why he did this. He must have his own reasons. He would help if he could with such a small favor.
Gu Shi thanked him, "Thank you, Anthony."
Anthony waved his hand. "It's nothing, just a small matter. Let's go quickly. Mom will come and call me to go to bed soon."
Gu Shi followed Anthony to the door of the next room. He took a deep breath and made preparations in advance.
When Asher opens the door later, he will take this opportunity to observe the situation in the room. It would be even better if he could go in and see it himself.
Anthony had no idea what Gu Shi was thinking behind him. He took three or two steps towards Asher's door and knocked hard.
"Mr. Asher? Mr. Asher, are you there? Please open the door!"
The sound of knocking on the door and Anthony's shouting mixed together. Even someone who was asleep should have been woken up by now, but there was no movement in Asher's room.
Seeing this situation, Anthony's voice became louder and the strength of his knocking on the door increased a bit. Gu Shi frowned and looked at the door with some uneasiness.
"Mr. Asher! Mr. Asher!!"
After a while, there was still no response in the room.
Anthony stopped knocking on the door, turned around and looked at Gu Shi, with a hint of worry in his voice, and said, "Could something really have happened to Mr. Asher? I've been calling him for so long, but there's still no response."
Gu Shi didn't choose to comfort Anthony, but echoed with some hesitation: "Is he still asleep? But we are already so loud, he should wake up anyway."
Now that he had knocked on Asher's door, Gu Shi didn't plan to give up halfway. He knew that Anthony's parents must have a spare key to this room, so he had to find a way to get Anthony to speak up.
Who knew that Anthony would be so cooperative? After Gu Shi said a few words, he took the initiative to ask his father to get the key.
Anthony's face was a little uneasy, "No, if Mr. Asher is really in the room and something happens, it will be bad, we have to go in and take a look.
Brother Gu Shi, please wait here for a moment. My father has a spare key to this room. I will go get it from him right away."
After saying that, Anthony hurried down the stairs.
Gu Shi stood there, his eyes scanning the closed door, wondering what was inside. Before he could wait long, Anthony came back.
Seeing that he was the only one coming over, Gu Shi asked with some doubt: "Isn't your father here with you? Or is he not going to help us open Mr. Asher's door?"
Anthony shook his head and raised the key in his hand, "No, Dad has already given me the key to the room. I persuaded him not to come with me.
After all, Dad and Mr. Asher are not familiar with each other, and Mr. Asher's aura is too imposing. I am worried that he will be frightened."
Gu Shi smiled and said, "So that's how it is. You are really considerate."
"Let's go in and take a look. It's getting late. When I went to get the key just now, my mother urged me to go to bed early several times."
Anthony was about to open the door, but was stopped by Gu Shi.
"Let me drive, Anthony, just stand behind me."
Although Gu Shi had asked Anthony to help him conceal his intentions, he still couldn't let a teenager step on the landmine.
Besides, Anthony is an important figure in this illusion. It would be terrible if something happened to him and caused the collapse of this place, so it would be better for him to take the lead.
Anthony looked at Gu Shi with a very alert expression, and thinking of the abnormality he had discovered from Asher during this period, he immediately realized that there might be some danger in the room.
Anthony obediently handed the key to Gu Shi. Since his own safety was at stake, this was not the time to show off. He should just hide behind Gu Shi, a professional.
Gu Shi took out his staff and used it as a shield for himself. Anthony looked at the shining and gorgeous staff in his hand, his heart full of envy.
For the first time, he realized so clearly that the person standing in front of him was a genuine professional and a noble magician.
Because of the seamless interactions between them, in Anthony's mind, Gu Shi has always been closer to the image of the big brother next door, and there is no trace of the professional airs at all.
Anthony looked at the light on Gu Shi's staff and thought silently, I wish I had the talent to become a wizard.
Gu Shi couldn't hear what Anthony was thinking. After taking defensive measures, he slowly inserted the key into the keyhole.
As his hand rotated, the door lock opened with a "click".
Putting his hand on the brass door handle, Gu Shi took a deep breath and pushed open Asher's door.
