Chapter 116
When Wenshi walked over and opened the door, he instantly understood what Xia Qiao meant -
The pair of bright red embroidered shoes that should have been placed beside the wet nurse's bedside, at some point, stopped beside Xia Qiao and Zhou Xu's bedside, with their toes pointed towards the bedside.
"When did you come?" Wen Shi asked.
Xia Qiao huddled behind him and Xie Wen and said, "After the bell rang, Zhou Xu fell asleep instantly and couldn't wake up. But I just couldn't fall asleep and didn't dare to move. I could only lie down on the bed with my eyes closed. Then I heard the door of the room being opened and closed, and the footsteps walked to the bed and stood next to me, motionless. "
Xia Qiao started to get goosebumps as he spoke: "I waited for a long time and didn't hear any movement, so I opened my eyes just a slit and took a look. But there was no one beside the bed!"
He broke out in a cold sweat and stood up straight on the bed pretending to be dead until the bell rang again, getting more and more urgent. Then he vaguely heard the voices of Xie Wen and Wen Shi, and then he flew down from the bed.
It was only when he got out of bed that he really saw clearly what was parked beside the bed was the pair of embroidered shoes. It was as if there was someone who had been standing by the bed and watching them quietly since they fell asleep.
"Who is she looking for?" Xia Qiao asked.
Chapter 44 Fallacy
"There are only two people in this room, either looking for you or him." Xie Wen pointed to the person on the bed.
Zhou Xu was still sleeping soundly, and the bed lamp shone on his face. The light was obviously yellow, but it made his face look gray and blue. I wonder if it was because of the emerald green lampshade.
Xia Qiao looked at him with envy on his face: "He sleeps so soundly. Why can't I sleep? When I fall asleep, I can't see these shoes."
When I heard it: "The categories are different."
A question mark appeared above Xia Qiao's head, and he quickly realized that he was a puppet and indeed different from humans.
Thinking about it this way, he felt even sadder: "Other puppets are very majestic, and they can fight when they are big. But why is it different here? I am so timid that I can't sleep."
Why did the unknown puppet master create him in the first place? Was it just a decoration to show off his cuteness?
He felt sad for a while, and then asked with the last glimmer of hope: "Brother."
When I heard it: "Say."
Xia Qiao: "Am I lacking some excitement? Will I be able to transform one day when I receive enlightenment, into a python, a golden-winged roc, or something like that?"
When hearing it: "..."
Of course, Xia Qiao was not really imagining anything, he was just looking for comfort. It's a pity that Brother Wen's nerves may be dead in this area, and he can't say anything to comfort him. The expression on his face still clearly says "you are dreaming".
However, Xie Wen paid attention to him: "The big python you are talking about refers to the puppet your brother released before?"
Xia Qiao was confused: "Ang."
Xie Wen smiled.
Xia Qiao didn't understand where he was laughing. He turned around and asked, "Brother, isn't that a big black python?"
Big python...
His expression turned cold when he heard it.
Of course, it's not a big black python, it's a flaming snake from the Eight Gods of Qimen that can stir up clouds and mist. However, he is currently restricted by the puppet, which prevents it from showing its original appearance.
"Absolutely." He said perfunctorily, but his eyes glanced at Xie Wen.
"What do you want me to do?" Xie Wen stood side by side with him, one step away, and tilted his head slightly towards him when he spoke. A warm and deep voice rang in my ears.
When he heard it, he touched the side of his neck and suddenly said after a while: "Why are you so sure?"
Xie Wen was stunned for a moment: "What are you sure of?"
When I heard it: "My puppet."
Xie Wen explained: "I saw two protruding hard lumps on its back, which should be wrapped with something. The python's back does not have that kind of structure."
There is nothing to criticize about this, indeed you can find clues if you look carefully. When he explained, he briefly compared it with his fingers, but the location he pointed out was not very accurate.
But……
Wen Shi frowned slightly and looked away from his face.
Xie asked: "So what is that?"
When heard: "a python with tumors."
What a python with tumors.
Xia Qiao was beside himself, thinking that his brother's lies were so obvious that they were just showing on his face. He secretly glanced at Boss Xie and found that he didn't mind that he had been fooled. He even nodded happily when he heard the answer. He had a really good temper.
So why am I still a little afraid of him?
Xia Qiao was just wondering when he heard Xie asked again: "Who originally lived in this house?"
He didn't ask more about what he heard, but returned to the topic.
"Ah? Don't you know?" Xia Qiao was stunned for a moment.
Xie Wen gave an appropriate reminder: "I'm not here."
Xia Qiao patted his forehead: "Oh, yes, yes, boss Xie, you were not present when I introduced the background of the story. This room is where the wet nurse's son lives with the young master of the Shen family."
As he said that, he glanced at the motionless embroidered shoes and the sleeping Zhou Xu again, and muttered in his heart: The nanny must be here to see his son.
Just as he was thinking about it, Xie Wen suddenly asked him: "Have you confirmed it?"
Xia Qiao was a little confused by the question. He raised his head and said, "What do you mean?"
"Nothing, just a reminder." Xie
Q said, "After all, the background of the story may not be all true."
Xia Qiao was stunned.
He suddenly realized that the story background of the escape room was different from the real thing. Moreover, the story background was also part of the cage and would be affected by the cage owner.
