"What's wrong?" Noticing Su Luo's actions, Yang Zijing pretended to be intimate with Su Luo and asked in a low voice in her ear warily.
Su Luo was surprised by Yang Zijin's skillful movements. Compared to her previous stiffness, she was now doing it much more smoothly, even a little too closely.
"It's nothing," Su Luo denied softly, but then gave Yang Zijing a malicious look that sent chills down Yang Zijing's spine.
That look, that smile, could it be related to him?
"This room is specially prepared by our hotel for Dr. Su and your pet..." The lobby manager, who was about to open the door, was stopped by Su Luo before he could even make a move.
"Alright, no need for further introductions, I can read them myself."
Upon hearing Su Luo's words, the lobby manager immediately understood and wisely shut his mouth. He bowed to Su Luo and left the room. Before leaving, he thoughtfully closed the door for Su Luo and even told her that the hotel was equipped with an emergency system that could be activated if needed.
Upon hearing this, Su Luo waved her hand, signaling the lobby manager to leave, but the look in the manager's eyes as he left made her feel a little strange.
And what about that emergency system? An emergency system prepared for her? She's already known to the public as a divine doctor, and a nine-star one at that. What's the purpose of this emergency system?
It seems that all these mysteries stem from the room that the hotel prepared for her and Yang Zijin.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Luo finally decided to open the door and take a look. After all, it was just a glance; it wasn't illegal and it wouldn't cost him anything...
Open it gently...
In a second or two, Su Luo slammed the door shut with a cold face.
*Pfft.*
A soft laugh rang out in the room, instantly putting Yang Zijing on alert. She looked around, "Who?!"
He turned around and walked to another room with a blank expression. Fortunately, at least this bedroom was normal, and no more of those strange things were being done.
As for that laugh...
Su Luo had noticed the other person as soon as they stepped out of the elevator and into the room.
It should be a fluctuation in the domain's power, or perhaps it's a domain with special properties that possess hidden abilities.
"What are you laughing at? Isn't this guy one of your subordinates? He was treated like a pet by a monster and even given a luxurious suite with props, and you still have the nerve to laugh?"
Su Luo said irritably, seemingly unafraid that the other party would attack her.
What's his subordinate?
Yang Zijing was somewhat incredulous, but after a fluctuation in her domain, she looked excitedly at the area where the domain was spreading.
In the spacious suite, a young man dressed in the hotel's signature yukata was slowly drawn out, as if by an artist with a paintbrush.
"Brother Shu?!"
What are you doing here?
Upon seeing a familiar face, Yang Zijing exclaimed in surprise. Before she could get a reply, someone poked her on the head. "You dare to ask me? What's wrong with you?" Shu Li turned her head to look at the uniquely shaped gold ingot sofa, her tone tinged with a hint of probing.
He originally just wanted to follow along and take a look, but who knew that the doctor Su was not only unusually young, but also had Yang Zijin following behind him, which greatly surprised him!
What was even more surprising was seeing Yang Zijin clinging to Su Luo in the room in a coquettish manner. After hearing the lobby manager's words and seeing the props prepared in the room, it was obvious what had happened.
Good heavens, he only spent a few days in the Golden Cave, how come his brother became a monster's pet after he came out?
Was he under a spell, or has the world gone mad?
In the following hour, Shu Li was pulled aside by her younger brother, who had finally found her older brother, and told him about the hardships she had endured along the way. However, she deliberately concealed Su Luo's identity and did not mention the Su family. She only vaguely hinted at the position of law enforcement officer, which surprised Su Luo.
After listening to Yang Zijin's words, Shu Li looked up and examined Su Luo with great interest.
He's lying.
Shu Li understood perfectly.
It wasn't really a lie, just some details were deliberately concealed. The story was indeed true, and if Shu Li hadn't known Yang Zijin so well, she wouldn't have noticed.
"But you said the higher-ups sent you to Yecheng?"
"Yes." Yang Zijin nodded, and even showed the message to Shu Li.
After reading the message, Shu Li became even more puzzled, and even vaguely worried.
That's not right. He had received news about Yecheng, but just as he was about to set off, the guild told him to stay in Bailing City, saying that other members closer to Yecheng had been sent to investigate. After that, he went into the Golden Cave and only came out yesterday. He didn't know that Yang Zijin almost sacrificed herself to save him.
Thinking of this, Shu Li stood up and bowed solemnly to Su Luo. "Although I don't know which faction you belong to, I owe you a favor because you saved Yang Zijin."
"Thanks!"
"Favors?" Su Luo raised an eyebrow, deliberately probing, "Members of the Spark Society also owe favors?"
"Indeed, no." Shu Li said decisively, then, to Yang Zijing's astonishment, uttered a startling statement, "However, you're not a monster, so why can't you?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Zijin froze on the spot, her mouth opening and closing several times, unable to find the words to say.
So, Dr. Su really wasn't a ghost after all!
"This must be Dr. Su's first time in the Abyss, right? What do you think of the Abyss compared to your world?" As a high-ranking member of the Starfire Society, he knows far more inside information than Yang Zijing!
Moreover, Shu Li's domain is the [Invisibility] ability, which excels at stealth and escape, making it perfect for gathering intelligence.
Therefore, in this chaotic "Abyss," if there is anyone who knows a lot of information, it is Shu Li.
Hearing Shu Li's words, Su Luo stroked his chin and thought for a moment, "Each has its advantages."
"Anyway, it doesn't affect me."
Shu Li chuckled dryly after hearing this. Upon careful consideration, she realized that what the divine doctor Su Luosu said was not wrong. Judging from how well he was doing in the Abyss, it seemed that there was indeed some truth to it.
Moreover, the BT [Time] realm on the Nine Stars is practically immortal unless you deliberately court death; it's the same no matter where you are.
Shu Li hadn't expected Su Luo to be so indifferent to both humans and monsters, as if as long as she was happy, she didn't care whether humans or monsters ruled, or anything else.
She had just casually saved Yang Zijing, and she thought...
Shu Li's eyes darkened for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.
"Since we're comrades-in-arms, and both of us live in a world invaded by strange creatures, I can tell you some information about this."
Su Luo heard this, and it suited her perfectly.
Since examples like the Abyss can exist, is it possible that in some world humanity has completely overthrown the invasion of the monsters?
Thinking of this, Su Luo narrowed his eyes, looked at Shu Li, and slowly spoke.
"I do have a question that I've wanted to ask ever since you came into my life."
"Are you... a man or a woman?"
