Chapter 187
Sometimes when I heard someone say something, it would take a few seconds for him to answer. I don’t know if I’m sleepy or something else…
So much so that I felt a little unsure when I smelled it.
He looked at the people close by and whispered, "Thank you for asking?"
Xie Wen didn't answer immediately, but just raised his hand and touched Wen Shi's shoulder near the window slit. The T-shirt fabric was stained with the fog on the glass and was a bit cháo.
He moved his lips when he heard it, but made no sound. Because the other person stood too close, so close that when he raised his eyes, he would glance at his lip line and the bridge of his nose.
Xie Wen twirled his fingertips, glanced at the heavy rain outside the window, and suddenly said, "Call me again."
This scene almost overlaps with the confusing dream many years ago, except that there are no tangled threads between the fingers.
After a while, he finally said, "Thank you for asking."
His voice was low, mixed with the sound of rain.
Xie Wen's dark eyes widened, and the vague hesitation before finally disappeared. As if he finally confirmed something, he nodded.
When Wen Shi looked at his reaction, he suddenly remembered something and glanced towards the void somewhere in the room. Xie Wen always looked there before when he was distracted.
He suddenly came up with a guess. Although he thought the possibility was very low, he couldn't help but try: "Is there someone over there?"
Xie Wen smiled lowly and said, "You are deceiving me."
He stepped aside and his expression and words returned to normal. It was as if everything that had just happened was just an inadvertent phantom, passing by in a flash.
Wenshi looked at him: "Then what were you doing just now?"
Xie Wen was silent for a moment and said, "You are different from usual. Let me confirm."
Confirm what?
Are you confirming whether I have entered the illusion, or are you confirming yourself?
This cage is indeed very impulsive, and I almost asked these questions when I heard it. Fortunately, before he opened his mouth, there was sudden movement on the second floor.
It was as if some shelf had fallen to the ground, and the copper basin jingled and clanged, which was so sudden and shocking in the night.
"It should be next door." Xie Wen raised his eyes and glanced in the direction of the sound.
The heavy sleepiness made the noise completely disturbed. When he heard it, his face turned cold and he stretched out his hand to open the door.
A heavy, wet breath hit my face.
The corridor was wet from the rain, reflecting the shadows of the two people. When I heard about it, I strode to the next door and knocked hard on the door.
Zhou Xu and Zhang Yalin were sleeping here, so what happened just now was really not good.
Zhang Lan also came out wearing a coat. She was not wearing makeup at the moment, with her long hair hanging down, and she actually had a quiet temperament.
Unfortunately, as soon as he opened his mouth, none of this temperament was left: "Stop being so polite, just kick the door you knock on!"
Of course she didn't have to reason with her brother's room.
However, Wenshi was just out of instinctive upbringing. The moment she opened her mouth, the puppet string had already grabbed the entire door and forcefully pulled it open.
At the same time as the door opened, Zhang Yalin stood at the door with an ugly expression. Judging from his movements, it seemed that he was about to open the door.
"Xiao Xu is missing!" He spoke before anyone else could ask.
"Say it again?" Zhang Lan pointed at him. He didn't have heavy makeup, but his momentum was not low at all. "He slept with you, and you actually let him lose it?"
Zhang Yalin pressed her sun rays, not knowing whether she was more annoyed or angry. He stretched out his left hand and saw that the five fingers were wrapped with neat and beautiful white cotton threads, one of which was hanging long, almost dragging to the ground.
"I tied a puppet string for him." Zhang Yalin said, pointing towards the room again: "Even Xiao Hei, there are six puppets sitting side by side on the bed."
Hearing this, I frowned deeply.
If Zhou Xu's previous humiliation was not too exaggerated, then Zhang Yalin's level as a puppet master should be very high, at least one of the best among living judges.
The puppet string is an extremely sensitive thing. If Zhou Xu is really tied up with the string, Zhang Yalin will be alarmed by whoever abducts him, and it is impossible to let the other person disappear like this.
"Then what did your puppet say?" Zhang Lan asked.
Zhang Yalin looked embarrassed for a moment. He wiped his face and said in a deep voice, "They fell asleep."
"What's wrong with them?" Zhang Lan raised her voice by an octave.
Xiao Hei apologized in a heavy voice: "I'm sorry, we fell asleep for some reason."
Zhang Lan's face turned dark, but Wen Shi and Xie Wen were not surprised.
After all, Xia Qiao and Lao Mao have also fallen asleep in the past two days. This is a problem with the cage, not the puppet.
"So your puppet fell asleep and didn't notice. He didn't feel any problem with your puppet string." Xie Wen summarized, making Zhang Yalin's face turn red. "Then how did he disappear?"
Chapter 69 Entrance
"I don't know. I really didn't feel any struggle. Xiaoxu didn't even scream." Zhang Yalin's white skin has turned into pink skin, but the content of his words was not messy.
"Even if he was taken away while he was asleep, the person who took him away had to get close to him first. Being so close to the puppet line, even if Xiaoxu and I didn't wake up immediately, the puppet line itself would be intimidated by those who came inexplicably. Strangers causing harm…”
The more he talked, the deeper his frown deepened. He paused for a moment and then shook his head and said, "But nothing. The wind is calm. That's what I find most strange."
"What happened to that noise just now?" Hearing this, he raised his hand towards the wolf in his room.
Lift your chin.
