Josie lived on the third floor of the old castle, and the most remote room from everyone was her chosen residence.
Tong Ling went straight to Qiao Qian's door and knocked on the door: "Qian Qian, are you up yet?"
There was no sound from the door.
"Cissy?"
Tong Ling didn't feel right, and was about to take Josie's door key to open the door, when the door creaked open.
Josie, who opened the door, had long messy hair and a sickly blushing face. She was still wearing the rain-soaked skirt that looked like dried pickles from yesterday. Standing at the door, she looked weak.
"Did... something happen?" Josie asked.
Tong Ling didn't rush to answer this question, she grabbed Josie's hand and touched Josie's forehead with the other hand, "It's so hot! You're hot!"
"...It's fine." Josie was not used to being close to people, and subconsciously wanted to step back. But when she looked up, she saw the other person's expression. The concerned and worried expression didn't seem to be fake, and Josie knew that Tong Ling was harmless. Among all people, she was the only one who wouldn't hurt her.
Josie felt a little warm in her heart, and let Tong Ling grab her hand and take her to the bedside.
"Why didn't you even change your clothes when you went back to your room yesterday? Did you get hot from being soaked in the rain for too long?"
Tong Ling asked Qiao Xi to sit down and rest. After asking, she said angrily, "I'm sorry I didn't pay attention. I should have watched you wash and change clothes and rest."
Facing such kindness, Josie was still a little awkward, "I-I'm not sick..."
"I'm going to find someone to burn some hot water to wipe your body, and by the way, I'll find some clothes for you to put on." Tong Ling said and was about to go out.
Josie hurriedly held Tong Ling's hand back, "I'm really... alright!"
Seeing that Tong Ling didn't believe it, Josie pondered for a moment and said intermittently, "I'm not sick, it's a omen."
"Omen?" Tong Ling took advantage of the situation and sat beside Josie, "What is the omen?"
"Whenever I... sense something, I will have a dream..." Josie pursed her lips and said with an uneasy look: "A bad omen will make me hot, this is just a short... state."
"Wait a minute..." Josie said. "I'll be fine soon."
As if responding to what Josie said, Josie's face quickly returned to normal. Tong Ling probed Josie's forehead with her hand again, and Josie's body temperature also dropped.
"I won't get sick." Josie doesn't care much about her body. She was born different from ordinary people, and she won't get sick.
She will only be weak, weak for a while after getting the omens, "I know someone died, this is a start..."
Seeing Tong Ling's surprised face, Qiao Qian lowered her head and said, "you should go, Lingling."
"Don't come near me." Josie's words gradually became smoother, "You should also ignore other people who approach you."
"Those people are not good people."
Tong Ling: "you are different."
"Qian Qian, I know you are different." Tong Ling smiled and said, "you shouldn't tell me these things, you will tell me that you trust me, right?"
Josie was silent.
"It did happen in the morning." Tong Ling told the story of Li Yun being killed by the murderer. After she finished the story, she said slowly, "I came to see you to see if you are still safe."
Josie's eyelashes trembled, her fingers wrapped around her hair involuntarily, "You don't doubt me?"
She was obviously so weird, and she exposed so many weirdness in front of her, why did Tong Ling believe her
"Qian Qian is my alarm." Tong Ling looked at Josie with her cheeks raised, her eyes soft and said, "A person who will remind me of 'danger', why should I doubt you?"
"Simple." Josie tilted her head uncomfortably: "You can't believe what others say."
"You're not someone else." Tong Ling said in an unassailable tone, "I believe in Qian Qian."
Josie whispered, "That's because you don't know who I am."
"Who is Qian Qian then?" Tong Ling approached Qiao Qian and asked with a wink, "You will never be more terrifying than that murderer. Even if it's a murderer, I'll arrest him."
"You should be afraid of me." Tong Ling smiled.
When Josie heard these words, her gloomy mood suddenly improved a lot, "...I am a witch."
Qiao Qian looked directly at Tong Ling and said, "Those who are close to me will become unfortunate."
"Pfft." Tong Ling laughed.
Josie frowned: "You think I'm joking?"
Qiao Qian raised her hand, the furniture, sheets and mattresses in the room were all floating in the air. Qiao Xi turned her head to look at Tong Ling, but saw that Tong Ling was not afraid of her ability, on the contrary... Tong Ling watched with relish , as if she was performing some kind of magic.
Josie: "…"
Qiao Xi was a little angry and annoyed. Although Tong Ling was not afraid of her, she let her breathe a sigh of relief, but it was too uneasy to be so unguarded!
Seeing the annoyance on Qiao Qian's face, Tong Ling quickly waved her hand and said, "No, I'm laughing because someone has also commented on me with this sentence."
Josie was stunned for a moment. As soon as the objects in the air were out of her control, they suddenly fell to the ground, "How could... how could someone say that to you..."
Qiao Qian could see that Tong Ling was coddled and grew up. She looks so bright, generous and radiant. It can be said that Tong Ling has the quality that Qiao Qian yearns for most, the person she wants to become but can never become.
Josie envies Tong Ling very much, Tong Ling is a "free" person, her freedom radiates from her bones, she is very casual, she can do whatever she wants. On the surface she is very willful, but who can say that she Don't want to have this willful right
Josie also wanted to be self-willed, but she couldn't. If she didn't control herself, she would hurt the people around her.
Witch, why is she a witch, Josie really wishes she could be an ordinary person...
"It's nothing for me to say that." Tong Ling raised her eyebrows lightly, "after all, it's someone else unfortunately, not me."
"I will live better than anyone else." Tong Ling said to Qiao Xi, "So do you, Qian Qian."
Josie's heart skipped a beat, and there was a mist of water vapor in her light green eyes: "...Really?"
"Of course." Tong Ling affirmed: "If you don't try it, how do you know you can't do it?"
Tong Ling's confidence undoubtedly infected Josie, even if it was a comforting word, Josie's heart was very ironed.
Josie swept her gaze to the scattered items in the house, and those items flew back to their original positions one by one, and the house became clean and tidy again, just like her state of mind at this time, stable and peaceful.
"What's more, Qian Qian, you are a witch, how powerful a witch, you are much stronger than me." Tong Ling spread her hands and sighed: "Look at me, I can't do anything, I have to rely on others for everything, this time I am unlucky. When I came to this castle and met the murderer, I have never seen anyone more unlucky than me."
"I will... protect you." Josie's eyes gradually became firmer, "Lingling, you must live!"
Tong Ling tilted her head, as if she didn't understand Josie's words.
"I dreamed that the people in the castle were dying one by one." Josie recalled her dream, and her body trembled slightly: "I don't know who the murderer is, except you, everyone is suspect!"
"We didn't gather unintentionally, but were deliberately led into this castle." Josie said solemnly, "Those people with bracelets on their hands, they knew we were coming, they were waiting for us... ."
Tong Ling pretended to be surprised, "How come? I wanted to climb the mountain on a temporary basis, how could I be guided?"
"I don't know what that 'person' did. I came here because I felt that there was a 'thing' I wanted here." Josie said with a pale face: "Looking back now, this feeling is illusory, but at the time I don't know why I believed it, and when I walked into the castle, I realized that I couldn't leave, it's very dangerous here, those people are very dangerous!"
Tong Ling sat aside and listened quietly. She didn't show any doubt and was always calm.
This was encouragement for Josie to keep on saying, "I'll have my pulse cut and bleed, and you..."
Josie's eyes fell on Tong Ling's face, "Ling Ling, you will be placed on the altar and become a sacrifice."
…
After Tong Ling walked out of Qiao Qian's room, she was still thinking about the content of Qiao Qian's words.
Altars, offerings...
Could this be the background setting of this S-class copy? There is an altar prepared for her hidden in this ancient castle. Is she going to be sacrificed to an unknown "god"
Tong Ling stretched out her hand and held the door key on her neck, a little smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The most mysterious person, she almost understood his purpose.
Tong Ling walked to the second floor and was about to return to her room when she saw a person standing in front of her door holding a bowl of hot chopped green onion noodles in her hand.
When the visitor saw her, he took off the baseball cap on his head, revealing a delicate and handsome face that was not inferior to Mia.
Different from Miya's wicked beauty, the black-haired boy looks much clearer and cleaner, and he is a person who will be loved at a glance.
"Yuanju?" Tong Ling pretended to be stunned, but in her heart she praised the young man's "knowledge of current affairs".
It came too fast, this player named Yuan Ju has a very flexible mind.
Tong Ling became a police detective in the morning, caught the "murderer", and showed her own value clearly.
She defends Bei Bai to let them know that she is a person who "emphasizes feelings". No evidence or facts are important to her. As long as she is willing to arrest anyone, it will not be a problem. Who told her to control those NPCs? Woolen cloth.
Tong Ling didn't have much contact with the players at first, and focused on a few monsters in order to wait for the players to "beg" them personally.
Didn't the Lord God want the player to kill her? It's a pity, the player now, in order to survive, not only can't kill her, but also has to coax her, follow her, and ask her for help. If she is a little "damaged", the monster behind her They won't let them go easily.
Yuan Ju turned his head slightly, as if a little shy, and handed the noodles in his hand to Tong Ling with a blushing face, "Thanks to your help in the morning, this is my noodles, aren't you hungry? You can taste it. …”
Perhaps afraid of Tong Ling's rejection, Yuan Ju said again: "It doesn't matter if you don't eat, it's normal to have no appetite when that happened."
"Eat, I didn't have an appetite before, but now I have." Tong Ling opened the door and made an inviting gesture, "Come in, Yuan Ju... brother."
Yuanju: "..."
Yuan Ju pursed his lower lip, shook his head and said, "I'm still... not going in your room."
"What?" Tong Ling put her hands around her chest and frowned impatiently, "Do you want me to go in with my face?"
Yuan Ju just walked into the door, and when he heard the sound of the door being closed, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
This NPC Lingling is too casual. Anyone can put it in the room. Back then, Li Yun could hook her up with a ointment, and he could also enter her room with a bowl of noodles. What method did she use to control those? monster? The skills mentioned on the Prophet's card are like the product of the Lord God's evil taste. Everything in this copy is too discordant and unreasonable.
As soon as Yuanju entered the door, he took a look at the environment in the house. In fact, before Lingling moved into this room, he had roughly checked all the rooms in the castle. This room is the largest and can be regarded as an ancient castle. The hostess' room. All kinds of facilities are available, and the luxurious ones are very in line with Lingling's taste.
Yuanju put the tableware and chopsticks on the table, and before he left, NPC Lingling pointed to the chair next to him and told him to sit down.
"Wait for me, and when I finish eating, I want you to take the bowls and chopsticks away." Tong Ling looked righteous and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what she said.
Yuanju: "..."
Yuanju has never seen such a lazy and willful woman, he has nothing to do with her, how can she be so rude
Has Lingling ever done this to Li Yun before? Isn't she good at coaxing people? When he is gentle, he is also very gentle, and his eyes are full of hooks. How did it change when he came to him? Could it be that his face was not liked by her
This is impossible…
Yuanju's mind was running fast, he didn't want to really become the fish of Neptune, but Neptune completely regarded him as a "younger brother", which was beyond his expectations.
Yuanju glanced at Lingling quietly, and found that Lingling was only interested in eating noodles and didn't look at him at all.
To talk about the advantages of Lingling, it may be that she eats very well. This simple bowl of chopped green onion noodles served by Yuanju seems to be a high-end ingredient worthy of careful tasting in Lingling's mouth. The elegant attitude makes Yuanju Looking a little stunned.
It wasn't that Yuanju was attracted by Lingling, but he hadn't seen such a life-like scene in a long time.
After he entered the dungeon, he was in a tense state throughout the whole process. He watched and listened to all directions to collect information. Even last night's dinner was carefully observing everyone's actions. Not tasting food with your heart
His craftsmanship was trained before entering the infinite game, and he did not expect to use it in this dungeon.
Who would have thought that he would give an NPC under him and watch her eat noodles, this is so funny...
Tong Ling stopped in the middle of eating, she pushed the tableware and chopsticks in front of Yuan Ju, "Okay, don't look at me, eat."
Yuanju: "?"
The meaning in Lingling's words, she told him to eat her... the rest of the noodles
Yuanju looked at Lingling's plump and moist lips, and then looked at the chopsticks she had used. Could it be... Is this how Neptune seduces him? Let him indirectly have... intimate contact with her
It seems that he is her dish, and she pretended to be honest with him!
Yuan Ju's heart just passed his pride when he heard Lingling whispering on the side: "It just happens that I can't eat it. Seeing how pitiful you are, the rest will be cheaper for you."
Yuanju: "..."
fuck! What does this bell take him for!
