Chapter 307 The First Round of Hide and Seek Ends
Ryan did not answer Lin Jiu's question.
He pulled Lin Jiu's arm and walked directly into a room. Then, without saying a word, he covered Lin Jiu's mouth and nose.
The faint scent of roses drifted into Lin Jiu's nose. As he breathed, he detected a slight smell of blood. It was so faint that it could easily make people think it was an illusion.
But for someone with sharp five senses like Lin Jiu, such an illusion is impossible.
He raised his eyes and saw the strange figure in front of him saying to him silently:
Don't make any noise and breathe softly.
Lin Jiu blinked and concealed his breath a little.
Realizing this, Ryan seemed a little surprised. He put down his hand and couldn't help but look at Lin Jiu twice more.
Because Lin Jiu had been staring at him, their eyes met both times. Ryan seemed to be afraid of being discovered or embarrassed, so he didn't look at Lin Jiu again.
It was very quiet outside the door, but Lin Jiu and Ryan did not move.
After a while, footsteps came from a distance.
Suddenly, he passed by the door again.
Lin Jiu had been paying attention to the person next to him, so he did not miss the other person's tense body and nervous emotions for a moment.
After about half a minute, Ryan gradually relaxed.
Perhaps he couldn't stand Lin Jiu's gaze, so he spoke first with some discomfort: "Is there something on my face?"
Lin Jiu shook his head and changed the subject: "Were you hiding from the Black Rose waiter just now?"
Ryan paused and nodded.
"They're dangerous," he said.
Lin Jiu noticed that when Ryan mentioned the Black Rose Waiter, a strong fear flashed in his eyes, but it returned to normal in an instant.
Sure enough, something happened.
Lin Jiu smiled slightly and asked, "What's your name?"
The other party was obviously stunned.
After a long silence, he finally spoke: ".....Ryan."
Obviously, Lin Jiu, who had shown a rather terrifying side, suddenly showed kindness and approaching intentions, which made Ryan more alert.
But he didn't show any obvious intention of distancing himself, and finally gave his name.
"You can call me Lin Jiu." Lin Jiu smiled even more happily.
With this smile, Lin Jiu looked even more harmless, and even made people want to get close to him.
Ryan was in a trance for a moment. After staring at Lin Jiu for a while, he smiled slightly to express his goodwill.
His smile was a little shy and stiff, as if he hadn't smiled for a long time.
As if realizing that his smile was stiff, Ryan quickly put away his smile and returned to his alert attitude towards the outside world. His demeanor also became much colder.
Ryan pushed up his glasses.
"You can go out now." He opened the door and walked out first.
Obviously, Ryan knew he couldn't stay in the room for long.
Standing in the dim corridor, the atmosphere was quiet and a little awkward.
"Is it convenient for us to act together?" Lin Jiu suddenly asked.
Lin Jiu always takes the initiative when it comes to targets that intend to approach him. Of course, he does not give the other party any room for refusal and takes the initiative in a robbery-like manner.
Ryan was slightly stunned. Instead of refusing, he asked, "Why?"
Lin Jiu replied: "To protect you from being caught by the ghost."
Ryan's face showed obvious emotions: confusion and surprise.
He pushed his glasses up in a panic: "Huh?"
Lin Jiu didn't say anything. Ryan quickly calmed down. He fiddled with the legs of his glasses for a few seconds, then thought of something and said firmly, "You guys agreed on this."
Apparently, he noticed that the player was intentionally protecting the "hider" from being caught by the "ghost".
Lin Jiu nodded.
Ryan lowered his eyes and thought, and no one knew what he was thinking. In the end, he did not refuse to go with Lin Jiu.
"The right choice." Lin Jiu said with a smile.
He was not in a hurry to explore the secrets of Ryan. This was not necessary. At least for Lin Jiu, the primary goal at this stage was still to win the game.
Of course, victory in the first game was inevitable.
Until the bell rang to end the first round of the game, the "ghost" did not catch any "hider" other than Anderson, and the result was the same as what Lin Jiu wanted.
Everyone except Eason, Bright and Andresen won the round.
Just two more wins will give you the final victory.
The three weirdos didn't seem to care much about losing a game.
After all, no one has died yet, but Essen seemed to have noticed something and kept looking at Lin Jiu.
Lin Jiu didn't care about the other person's gaze. After returning the rose to the Blue Rose waiter, he planned to go back to his room to rest.
"Your bath water is ready. Do you need any fruit or drinks?" Another Blue Rose waiter came up at this time and said to Lin Jiu respectfully.
Lin Jiu thought about it, nodded, and asked for a fruit plate.
"Okay, I'll prepare it for you." After saying that, the Blue Rose waiter turned and walked towards the restaurant.
Andrewson spoke at this time, with a hint of alcohol on his breath: "Hey! What's going on? Why are you asking him?"
Lin Jiu glanced at him.
At this time, the others silently took a half step back, and Ryan took a big step back.
Everyone looked at him with a somewhat strange look.
Even Xilin and Ji Xiaoshuang looked at Anderson in surprise and doubt, with five words flashing brightly in the depths of their eyes: "I'm *stupid*!"
The Blue Rose waiter didn't seem to care about Anderson's attitude. The distorted voice of the puppet was still extremely respectful, but in comparison, his attitude was more humane when he spoke to Lin Jiu.
"This gentleman has given us instructions in advance. If you need it, we can prepare it for you now."
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Anderson.
This time, there is a bit of curiosity and watching the show.
Although Andrewson was a little drunk, he didn't say anything more after hearing this. He nodded to indicate that he wanted to go too, and then fell silent. It seemed that he was just dissatisfied with Lin Jiu's special treatment.
Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows, not feeling regretful at all, and turned to go upstairs.
Charles and others followed closely behind, but they did feel a little regretful.
The layout of the manor returned to normal after the first round of the game. After saying goodbye to others at the stairs, Lin Jiu went straight back to his room.
I opened the bathroom door and saw that hot water was already in the bathtub.
The bath ball thrown in had long since melted, and blue rose petals were floating on the light pink water.
Lin Jiu said he was very satisfied.
The fruit platter was brought up quickly.
Lin Jiu placed the fruit plate on the countertop next to the bathtub, took off his clothes and slowly soaked in it.
