Chapter 303 A distinguished guest invites you
Lin Jiu did not hide his surprise.
Meeting the boy's meaningful gaze, Ryan pursed his lips and looked away somewhat awkwardly.
"The countdown is almost over, you...you should find a place to hide quickly." After saying that, he hurried away.
Lin Jiu stared at his back until he disappeared before looking away.
A minute passed quickly, and before Lin Jiu could decide whether to hide, he ran into Essen head-on.
“…”
Both the man and the weirdo paused for a moment.
Lin Jiu didn't hesitate and turned around and ran. Essen was a little slow and hurriedly chased after him.
Lin Jiu, who was in a playful mood, naturally would not get rid of Essen directly. He ran briskly in the corridor, turning left and right at a speed that could keep a distance from the other party.
Unexpectedly, Eisen soon realized that Lin Jiu was playing a trick on him.
He cursed at something, but Lin Jiu didn't hear clearly. Just as he was about to turn around, there was a knock on the door of a room not far ahead.
In the dim and silent corridor, the sudden knock on the door made Essen subconsciously hold his breath. He could see the harmless-looking oriental boy standing not far away, and he could also see that there was nothing in the direction of the knock.
Essen had already vaguely realized that there was something strange about this manor.
Now that he encountered such a weird thing, he no longer had any intention of continuing to pursue it.
Just looking at Lin Jiu standing there motionless, Essen felt that this might be an opportunity.
Maybe the boy was scared?
As Eisen was thinking this, he took a step forward when the knock on the door sounded again.
Unlike the first time, the sound this time was a little more urgent, as if urging something, and it sounded once more.
Lin Jiu finally moved. He walked straight to the room where the knocking sound came from. Seeing this, Essen frowned slightly.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Essen felt that the temperature in the corridor, which was not high to begin with, became even lower. The eerie atmosphere made him feel that the current atmosphere was even more weird. He couldn't help but speak and called out to Lin Jiu.
"Hello!"
Lin Jiu paused.
"This is not right!" Essen said after hesitating for a moment.
Hearing this, Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
The other party seemed to realize something.
But what really surprised Lin Jiu was that Essen actually reminded him. ——But when he thought about the fact that this guy didn't actually have such strong malice towards him, Lin Jiu suddenly felt that this was not surprising.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Jiu's voice was not loud, but Essen heard it clearly.
"Of course it was a knock on the door. We are the only ones here." Essen frowned, inexplicably feeling that the cold atmosphere was even heavier.
Lin Jiu also noticed this, which made him more certain of his guess. So he spoke up and kindly reminded the other party: "You'd better not waste your time with me."
Then he turned around, ignoring Essen's anxious and slightly displeased "Hey", and came to the door.
This door is no different, except that it is located in the middle of two rooms, as if it appeared out of thin air, making people even doubt whether it can be opened.
It's very abrupt and has a weak presence.
Lin Jiu gripped the door handle, and with a crisp "click", the door opened.
A light different from the surrounding light shone through the crack of the door. Essen frowned. The strong light made him squint slightly. He just watched Lin Jiu's figure disappear in a burst of light.
The sound of the door closing was heard, and the entire corridor fell into darkness and silence again.
Because of the light just now, Essen even felt that the environment was darker. He hesitated for a moment, but still walked forward and came to the place where Lin Jiu had just stood.
The next second, Essen looked at the wall in front of him in astonishment, his pupils shrinking slightly because he was too surprised.
“What the f**k?!”
Lin Jiu was not interested in Essen's mood.
After entering the room, he subconsciously closed his eyes due to the strong light.
He heard the chirping of birds and a faint fragrance in the air, but it was soon overwhelmed by the aroma of tea and snacks. Relying on the warmth transmitted by his senses, Lin Jiu realized that he had entered a different space.
Slowly opening his eyes, the first thing that caught his eye was three figures sitting on the balcony.
When his eyes fell on Mu Li, Lin Jiu paused slightly.
【......】
The appearance of the prompt box and the content above made Lin Jiu instantly realize that this guy's sudden outburst was actually telling him that he had guessed wrong at the time.
I'm glad you understood.
Lin Jiu: ......
"Hey, you're here!"
Clarint's voice drew Lin Jiu's attention back.
He was sitting with his back to the door, so he had to turn around to greet Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu looked at the smiling face and felt his hands itch for some unknown reason. He blinked twice quickly, suppressing the urge and nodded in response.
This is a carefully decorated room.
The floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open, and the warm sunlight and the occasional breeze made the entire space very comfortable and reassuring.
Lin Jiu quickly withdrew his gaze from the room.
Mu Li and Ryan sat on both sides.
Ryan smiled and nodded when he saw Lin Jiu, but he couldn't see any displeasure from Adonis's erasure in his mark. Lin Jiu had always remembered him as a gentlemanly and elegant evil god, someone who didn't show obvious emotional fluctuations.
As for Muli....
He didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded at him, just like Ryan.
The other party's state was inexplicably similar to Astaro's, which made Lin Jiu think that he had entered the [Copy] state, but his intuition made Lin Jiu feel a little strange.
When Mu Li pretended to be him before, he did not restore his personality. After all, as He said, His ability is no longer so passive.
Therefore, Lin Jiu subconsciously felt that this guy might not be willing to copy the other person's personality due to his past experiences. ——Except for some special circumstances, probably...
If not....why be so cautious?
Lin Jiu did not show his doubts. He naturally sat in the seat that was obviously prepared for him.
Out of curiosity, Lin Jiu paid special attention to Mu Li's reaction.
The latter was obviously nervous for a moment when he passed by, and only relaxed after he sat down.
This somewhat strange reaction made Lin Jiu even more confused.
This kid...
Lin Jiu glanced at Clarint and Ryan.
The former was looking at him with a smile, while the latter was drinking tea elegantly.
I can't see anything.
But Lin Jiu was very sure that there must be something.
And it's related to him.
