Lan Shuang stood in the room in confusion, "What does this mean?"
She tried to turn the doorknob, but it wouldn't open. The next moment, the feeling under her hand disappeared. Lan Shuang was startled and reached out to touch it, but found nothing. The whole door disappeared!
"How could this happen?" Lan Shuang called out to 888 tentatively, "Xiao Baba, are you there? Can you hear me?"
Still no response.
Lan Shuang pursed her lips. This time she was really alone.
She recalled her previous series of actions and suspected that she might have entered another space since she went upstairs.
In other words, her consciousness entered another space, while her body remained in the same place.
So, was the voice of 888 that she heard before real, or was it a trick to lure her into taking the bait?
Thinking of this, Lan Shuang suddenly thought of Rose. She raised her head and shouted to the air, "Rose, is this part of the mission?"
No response.
Lan Shuang's heart suddenly tightened. It seemed that even Rose couldn't intervene here.
She can only rely on herself, but I don’t know what the purpose of pushing her in is?
Lan Shuang turned her head and looked. Jiang Lusheng's room had turned into a black fog and she could not see anything. Suddenly, a dim light lit up in front of her. She was silent for a moment and walked towards the light. When she walked out, she found that she had come to the corridor.
And it seems to be the corridor on the second floor.
She narrowed her eyes and looked around, and suddenly heard faint footsteps coming from the stairs.
She subconsciously hid behind a large vase, shielding her body with the potted plants, and looked out cautiously.
Several figures walked towards this side from the corner of the stairs. Lan Shuang had never seen the two people in front before, but they looked a little familiar. She squinted her eyes and looked at them for a while, and suddenly recognized them. Aren’t these the parents in the photo?
It's just that he is old now and dressed too formally, which is very different from his style in the photo, so Lan Shuang didn't recognize him at first.
Behind these two people is...
"This is it. The boss is already asleep. We can just go in directly."
"Dad" said to the two men in a very respectful manner.
Lan Shuang carefully dressed the two men. The one in front was not particularly tall, about 180 cm tall, of medium build, without a beer belly, in his early thirties. He wore a black suit and an expensive watch. He had a mature and steady temperament and looked like a successful man.
The person behind him looked like his secretary and opened the door for him.
"She's asleep, won't we wake her up if we go in like this?" the successful man turned around and asked "Dad".
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows. She didn't know if she was being too sensitive. This man was also wearing a pair of glasses, but with gold rims.
"Mom" smiled and said, "Don't worry, I knew you were coming and made preparations in advance. Let alone going in to check, she wouldn't wake up even if we sang in there."
Lan Shuang's body stiffened. So the purpose of that glass of milk was to make it easier for them to do this?
The next moment, the man with gold-rimmed glasses pushed the door open and walked in with satisfaction.
The couple and the secretary followed closely behind. Lan Shuang walked out carefully, walked along the wall, and lay down by the door to look inside.
As soon as I saw the figure, I suddenly felt something around me.
When she turned around, she saw a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a light pink striped nightgown, rubbing her eyes.
She was startled and held her breath as she waved her hand in front of her, but found that the little girl couldn't see her at all.
Lan Shuang didn't know for a moment whether she was relieved or what. She felt so complicated that she couldn't put it into words, because she seemed to be able to predict how things would turn out.
She left the wall and simply walked straight into the room. No one could stop her anyway. However, as soon as she entered, she saw the man with gold-rimmed glasses smiling with satisfaction. He reached out and touched the face of the young lady who was sleeping on the bed. It was a face that was very unfamiliar to her.
She has willow-shaped eyebrows, an oval face, and a very upturned nose. She is a natural beauty with a well-proportioned figure. She is about sixteen or seventeen years old.
"The stuff this time is very good. How is her study?" the man with gold-rimmed glasses asked "Dad".
"Dad," he rubbed his hands and said, "Very good. The private tutor said she is very smart, learns things quickly, has high emotional intelligence, and excellent literary literacy."
After hearing this, the man with gold-rimmed glasses laughed heartily. "Okay, then it's her. I'll pay the balance when she turns 18."
"Okay, I like a straightforward boss like you."
"Dad" was very happy, and "Mom" was also grinning from ear to ear. She glanced at the eldest daughter on the bed, turned around and followed them out.
Lan Shuang stood at the door and watched them push the door open, and then she saw the little girl peeking.
At that moment, the faces of "Dad" and "Mom" turned pale. "Mom" grabbed the little girl's hand and scolded her sharply, "Who asked you to come out? Didn't you say you should sleep well at night? What did you see? How long have you been looking at it?"
The little girl looked at her "mother" blankly and said, "I didn't hear anything. I just saw that it was still lighted over here, so I came to check it out. I wanted to drink some water."
The man with gold-rimmed glasses pushed up the temples of his glasses and said in a low voice, "She's just a little girl. She probably wouldn't tell anyone if she saw something. It's okay. Just keep an eye on her."
"Dad" said: "Yes, yes, we will definitely keep an eye on Xiaoliu and won't let her wander around at night anymore."
Lan Shuang's heart tightened, "Xiao Liu?"
She looked at the little girl in surprise. It turned out that she was Xiaoliu. Isn’t that her current role?
At this moment, Xiaoliu suddenly turned around and grinned at her, with bright red blood continuously flowing from the corners of her mouth.
Lan Shuang's heart skipped a beat and her feet suddenly felt lighter.
"ah--"
Lan Shuang blinked, and there was a buzzing in her ears. Soon another voice came out, "Host, host! Wake up!"
"Little Baba?" Lan Shuang's eyes moved slightly, and 888 was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. "Wow, you finally woke up! The system was scared to death!"
Lan Shuang's mind was blank and dazed for a moment, but soon the little girl's bleeding mouth appeared in front of her again. She asked softly, "Did I fall asleep suddenly?"
888 shook his head and nodded again. "Yes and no. After we came up from the second floor, you just stood there in the hallway, motionless. I called you many times but you didn't respond. Something must have disrupted our connection. I was really scared at the time. Your eyes were open the whole time, but your expression kept changing, like you saw something, but I couldn't see it."
He patted his chest with lingering fear, "Host, what on earth happened to you? Could it be a ghost wall?"
"That's not what a ghost wall looks like." Lan Shuang looked around. All the lights in the corridor were still on and very bright. She took another step forward and stood at Jiang Lusheng's door.
