Chapter 304: The Unscrupulous Tasker in the Infinite Flow (12)
Su Yu didn't know when Ling Hanye got it. Everyone was clearly in the room playing with Lin Xingxing, but Ling Hanye went to the bathroom in the middle of the game, so maybe he got it at that time.
"So, Lin Xingxing is indeed schizophrenic."
Moreover, they stayed in Room 601 for the whole day and returned safely.
Ling Hanye tapped his knees with his fingers, looking thoughtful, and said, "Let's go to 601 tomorrow. The secret we are looking for must be there."
Zhang Haolei and Li Shiqi immediately said that they would go tomorrow as well.
At night, Ling Hanye stood in front of the sink, staring at the mirror in front of him in silence. An irresistible suction force came from the mirror, as if to suck people's souls in.
Ling Hanye closed his eyes, his face was cold, he wrapped his palm with a golden prop glove, and punched it. A scream came from the mirror, and then it shattered like a spider web.
The suction force disappeared.
It must be this strange mirror that killed the man in the suit.
There are five people in 604, and two of them are dead now.
After Ling Hanye told Su Yu and Aunt Song about the mirror, he returned to his room. Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
The door was opened. Ling Hanye's shirt was unbuttoned, down to his collarbone. It was rare that he was not as well-behaved as usual. He lowered his eyes slightly, his light-colored eyes full of confusion, as if asking Su Yu why she was knocking on the door so late.
Su Yu hugged the quilt and asked timidly: "Brother Ling, can I live with you?"
"I can sleep on the floor, please, Brother Ling, I'm really scared."
"You said you would protect me and help me finish the game alive. What if I get killed by a ghost in a place you can't see?"
Seeing the hesitation on Ling Hanye's face, Su Yu immediately hugged the quilt and crawled in beside him: "Thank you, Brother Ling!"
Ling Hanye: “…”
He didn't seem to agree yet.
Su Yu skillfully spread the quilt on the ground and folded one side up, intending to use it as a spread and as a cover at the same time. Like a busy little bee, she ran back to get the pillow.
Ling Hanye didn't find any chance to speak up and stop it the whole time.
By the time he reacted, Su Yu had already laid down safely, her small ball lying flat in the quilt with almost no visible rise or fall. Ling Hanye was afraid that he would accidentally step on her to death when he got up.
Ling Hanye was silent for a long time, then sighed: "...You sleep on the bed."
This means agreeing to let Su Yu live with him.
In the end, Su Yu slept on the bed and Ling Hanye slept on the floor.
In the middle of the night, Ling Hanye woke up from a light sleep. Hearing rustling noises beside his ears, his body instinctively became alert, but he didn't feel any danger, so he relaxed a little.
A small hole was left in the quilt.
Someone carefully went around to the other side and then slipped into the quilt.
Ling Hanye’s forehead twitched.
Soft hair brushed across his neck, bringing about a trembling itch. Ling Hanye's waist was hugged by a pair of hands, and a soft body was in his arms. What was even worse was that the person's legs rubbed against a place that shouldn't have been rubbed.
Ling Hanye finally couldn't bear it anymore, and grabbed the little thief who was awake in the middle of the night. His light-colored eyes opened wide, and his eyes were clear without a trace of sleepiness: "Su Su, what are you doing?"
Su Yu was startled and rolled her eyes guiltily.
"Brother Ling, why are you awake?"
Ling Hanye sat up from the quilt, and took Su Yu up with him. Looking at the hands still on his waist, he frowned, obviously not understanding what Su Yu meant.
"Do you know what you are doing?"
Su Yu lowered her head and took her hand back: "I... I don't dare to sleep alone..."
Ling Hanye took a deep breath: "Are you a three-year-old child who is afraid to sleep alone?"
He stared at Su Yu, trying to suppress his anger and make his voice sound calm: "I don't know how your family taught you, but you have to know that you are still young and still in school. You can't just live in a house with a strange man, and you can't just get into a man's bed. If you change someone tonight, do you know what you will encounter?"
In the game, the laws and morals of the real world do not apply at all. No one knows whether a person is a good person or a bad person under the skin. What's more, under high-pressure environment, a good person can also become a bad person.
Ling Hanye's words were somewhat impolite, pointing directly to Su Yu's family education problems.
It's a pity that Su Yu really has no family education. All her family members have died, otherwise she wouldn't have entered the society and struggled at such a young age.
"I……"
Su Yu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she realized her mistake, and lowered her head to listen to the lecture: "I'm sorry, Brother Ling, I know I was wrong."
Ling Hanye felt a little regretful after he finished speaking. She was just young and ignorant, and he wondered if his tone was a little too harsh.
"I'm going to sleep outside in the living room."
As I stood up, someone suddenly grabbed my wrist.
"Brother Ling, don't go." Su Yu pursed her lips in self-blame, "This is your room, if anyone wants to leave, it should be me."
Su Yu picked up the quilt and pillow on the bed in a depressed mood: "I really know I was wrong, and I don't mean anything else, it's just... it's just that no one has ever been so good to me. You are the best person I have ever met. You promised to protect me and gave me props. You are like a real brother."
"I don't know what's wrong, I just want to be closer to you, so I can feel at ease."
"I'm sorry, Brother Ling, don't worry, I won't do this again in the future."
Just in a few seconds, Su Yu came to her senses.
She had fallen into a vicious circle of thinking before, thinking that the strategy must be a love between a man and a woman, but in this world, the love between brothers and sisters is also possible. When the male protagonist trusts her the most and treats her as a sister, she can trick him and achieve her goal.
After saying that, Su Yu picked up the quilt and pillow and ran out quickly, leaving Ling Hanye alone staring at the empty bed.
…
★The next day, except Aunt Song, everyone else decided to go to Room 601 to look for clues.
Rong Xin walked beside Ling Hanye, and looked at Su Yu with some surprise, who was not sticking to her side. She turned around and asked Ling Hanye: "What's wrong with Su Su? Did you make her angry?"
Ling Hanye thought about last night and didn’t know whether he should nod: “I don’t know.”
Rong Xin didn't understand either, but she thought it was a good thing. After all, she was a little girl of unknown origin. If she had bad intentions, it would be hard to guard against her in Ling Hanye's current state.
Rong Xin smiled and tried to find excuses for Su Yu: "I'm probably overthinking it. Teenagers are prone to mood swings and have different ideas every day."
Looking at Su Yu clinging to that pretty boy with a happy smile on her face, Ling Hanye felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
He unconsciously quickened his pace and walked to Su Yu in two or three steps. Meeting her puzzled gaze, Ling Hanye suddenly calmed down and didn't understand what he was doing.
"Brother Ling?"
Ling Hanye's face was calm, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking. He very naturally took out an attack-type prop and handed it to Su Yu: "Today may not be as safe as yesterday. Take this, just in case."
Su Yu's eyes instantly lit up like light bulbs.
"Thank you, Brother Ling! Brother Ling, you are so nice!"
Ling Hanye nodded reservedly, noticing an envious gaze from the side. He looked back calmly, with a hint of provocation so subtle that it was almost imperceptible.
Shen Guan was stunned, then silently moved away a little.
Rong Xin, who was a few steps behind, looked at Ling Hanye in front of her, who looked like a peacock spreading its feathers, with an expression that was hard to describe.
